Hired a carriage, you and Gan Wu's family embarked on the journey to Xuzhou City.
The nearest territory of yours to Xiaopei is naturally Pengcheng, so you and Gan Wu drove through the night to Pengcheng.
Two days later, when you reached Pengcheng, you found the city gates tightly closed, with many merchants stopped outside. Initially, you thought the gates were closed due to emergency military affairs, but when you inquired from a peddler, he said, "Alas! Only the Lü Family Clan could close the gates on such a bright day."
"The Lü Family Clan?" Your eyebrows twitched slightly, and you immediately inquired further, "This elder brother, the Lü Family Clan has such power, can they really shut the gates? Is the governor not intervening?"
The peddler chuckled and said, "Governor? Alas, they must have headaches now!"
