Zhang Yantong smiled faintly and gently stroked his long beard, saying:
"What you said makes sense. With these remnants of the former Chu, we must neither be too careless, allowing them to exploit loopholes, nor too concerned, losing our sense of proportion."
"You must have other matters to discuss on this visit, correct?"
Suddenly, he changed the topic, inquiring about Chen Yuan's intentions.
"Uncle, with your insight, you're right. Aside from visiting you, I indeed have a personal matter to discuss."
Chen Yuan remained calm, his gaze serene.
"An external posting?"
Zhang Yantong raised an eyebrow, seemingly seeing through Chen Yuan's intentions.
"Uncle, your insight is as sharp as ever. It's indeed about an external posting. According to court regulations, only a Heavenly Core Master is qualified to be posted as a Golden Envoy. My efforts in cultivation have been for this purpose."
"Hmm?"
Zhang Yantong squinted, looking at Chen Yuan with a hint of amusement.
