ust now, was even higher in status than the official family.Feng Jia was also panicked at this moment. She knew she had caused a huge problem. Because of her, Cao Jian's father lost his job, and Cao J...Jin Zhiming angrily said: "If we were really cowards, we wouldn't come to you to discuss a plan to unite and defeat the enemy."

Liang Wenkang also said coldly, "You really don't know how to be grateful. We traveled across provinces out of kindness to help you, and this is how you treat us It's simply disappointing!"

"Everyone, please calm down. This matter concerns the existing balance of our three provinces. Any interference from external forces would shatter this balance instantly."

Su Chengwu also stepped forward and hurriedly said, “We must join forces in order to cope with the trouble that lies ahead. Otherwise, none of the families would be able to withstand the Xue family.”

"Master Su, it's not that we are not cooperating, but the government and the Han family are unwilling. The Xue family is almost here."

"If they still have this attitude, how can we even talk"

Liang Wenkang said.

"Now there are only two choices, war or surrender. You don't want to go to war, then what other choice is there" Han Xiaotian sneered.

Jin Zhiming glared at Han Xiaoxiao and said, "Two choices are just your thoughts, but in my opinion, there's a third option!"

"Oh Does the head of the Jin family still have a countermeasure"

Su Chengwu was afraid that Han Xiaotien would clash with Jin Zhiming again, so he hurriedly tried to smooth things over and asked.

Jin Zhimings nodded and said, "Our five great families have now reached a consensus that we are all willing to negotiate with the Xue family first. Is there a problem"

My idea is simple: first, negotiate. Surrendering to the Xue family... surely that won't

"We can accept this. If the Xue family remains domineering, perhaps we can both take a step back and allow the Xue family to develop in our three provinces, rebuilding a branch of their own."

"Jin Zhiming said: "At that time, the Xue family branch will definitely become another top family in our three provinces. For us, it's not a disadvantage, but an advantage."

"Back then, even the prominent families from other provinces wouldn't dare to be arrogant in front of us."

Liang Wenkang nodded hastily: “Master Jin is right, we can allow the Xue family to establish a branch in our three provinces.”

This is indeed a win-win solution.

Even Su Chengwu nodded slightly.

"Both sides are full of crap!"

Han Xiaotian said with a bit of annoyance, "Let's not talk about whether the Xue family will agree,"

Even if we agreed, wouldn't the Xue family branch still gradually absorb the three provinces' prominent families after it was established"

"Compared to directly forcing the wealthy families of the three provinces to submit, it only takes some time. With the Xue family's power, within a month, they can control the wealthy families of the three provinces. Do you believe me"

Guan Zhengshan also nodded and said, "The head of the Han family is right. At least in our Jiangping Province, we will absolutely not allow the Xue family to establish a branch here."

"You can't do this, and you can't do that. It seems like you've made up your mind to go to war with the Xue family"

Jin Zhiming angrily asked.

"Let's go to war! If you're not brave enough, then get back to Nanyang and Donlan!"

Han Xiaotian said bluntly.

Guan Zhengshan, although not as overt as Han Xiaotian, also made his stance clear.

"Jiangping Province, will absolutely not allow the Xue family to settle!"

Of the three top aristocratic families in Jiangping Province, only Su Chengwu had yet to make a statement.

Jin Zhiming and Liang Wenkang's faces were very grim. The reason they had come to the Imperial Court proactively was to pull in more families into the alliance, so that after Xue family settled in the three provinces, they would have the qualifications to talk to the Xue family.

However, they still underestimated the Xue family. Not to mention these five prominent families, even if all the prominent families from the three provinces joined forces, they wouldn't be qualified to talk to the Xue family.

"Alright, very well. Since you're looking for death, we won't keep you company!"

Jin Zhimings stood up abruptly, his voice cold as he said, "Without you, we can still find other families willing to form an alliance!"

(The End)
