[At exactly noon, Duke Dingyuan Xiao Yuan, accompanied by Xiao Jinghong, Commander-in-Chief of the Dingyuan Army, visited the Governor's Office to suggest that Liu Hong stabilize the grain prices in Shu State. They had a very pleasant conversation.]

*A very pleasant conversation?*
Chen Yi glanced at the golden words on the light screen and chuckled inwardly. It was truly hard for him to imagine a scene where Elder Master Xiao and Xiao Jinghong sat with Liu Hong, conversing pleasantly as host and guests. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as coercion and intimidation.
However, recalling how Liu Hong had just seen them off with a smiling face, Chen Yi couldn't help but mutter, "The old fox is such a good actor. Maybe they really did have a 'very pleasant conversation.'"
