My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

```

...

Liu Family's mansion was located not far from the Ping'an County Office, and it seemed to have been recently renovated. With blue tiles, red doors, and green stones, the mansion looked quite imposing.

They had arrived at the Liu Family's mansion.

This time, there was no need for Qing Luan to knock on the door.

Seeing the figure of Li Mingtang, the servants standing in front of the mansion did not need to make a sound before one went in to report, and an old man who looked like the steward of the Liu Family hurried out to greet Li Mingtang with a bow.

"County Magistrate, may I ask what brings you to the Liu Family's mansion so suddenly today?"

Li Mingtang saw the steward of the Liu Family come out to greet him, completely ignoring the Princely Heir by his side, who was handsome, extraordinary in status, and with a very approachable demeanor, and cursed in his heart, wondering if these people were all blind.

They couldn't tell who the true dignitary was!

Li Mingtang immediately spoke up, "It's not I who have business with the Liu Family; it's this Princely Heir who has matters to attend to here."

"Summon your Family Head."

After Li Mingtang spoke, it seemed that the Liu Family's steward finally noticed Cheng Guang standing beside him.

At the sight of Cheng Guang's splendid garments and the gentle smile on his handsome face which made him look very approachable, one could feel an astonishing noble aura without even approaching him.

The old eyes of the Liu Family's steward contracted, wondering what sort of nobleman this was to make Li Mingtang, the County Magistrate, treat him so carefully.

Princely Heir...

There were indeed not many who could be called a Princely Heir.

The steward, merely a minor character, had limited horizons and could not ascertain Cheng Guang's identity, but he dared not neglect his duties. He hurriedly greeted Cheng Guang and invited everyone into the mansion.

Although the Liu Family's mansion was not large, especially compared to the much larger Duke Zhen's Mansion, it was well-furnished with everything that should be there, despite its small size.

After entering the Liu Family's reception hall and taking their seats,

a middle-aged man, accompanied by several women and elders, walked in.

Their gaze first fell upon Li Mingtang.

They were surprised to see the County Magistrate visit the Liu Family's mansion so unexpectedly.

They hadn't expected that what the steward had said was true.

A little unsure why the County Magistrate had suddenly come to the Liu Family's mansion, they were mystified and were just about to greet Li Mingtang and say something.

But Li Mingtang was already feeling helpless.

In Ping'an County, he was considered someone of importance, but outside of it, he didn't amount to much.

In front of the Princely Heir, he was even less significant than a sesame seed.

One after another, these people were elevating his status too highly, greeting him first. If this offended the Princely Heir, he truly wanted to execute everyone in the Liu Family.

Just as the Family Head of the Liu Family was about to speak, Li Mingtang quickly stood up and introduced him:

"Liu Hao, this is the Town-Nation Duke's Heir. He has come to your mansion today in search of someone." Explore more adventures at m,v l'e-m|p| y r

When Liu Hao, the Family Head of the Liu Family, heard Li Mingtang's words, he was immediately stunned.

The Duke of the State's Heir?

Liu Hao initially did not react, but the elders and women beside him showed a slight change in expression, their legs growing weak with shock.

The Duke of the State's Heir had been the talk of the Capital city recently, an admired figure known by all.

Even if they were not well-informed, being in Ping'an County, which was relatively close to the Capital, they still heard stories about the Heir.

The thought of this prestigious figure, whom they usually wouldn't even dream of seeing, let alone listen to stories about and feel content, appearing today in their mansion, made them feel as though they were dreaming.

Though Liu Hao hesitated for a moment, he quickly regained his composure, filled with surprise and curiosity as to why the prestigious Heir had suddenly visited their Liu Family.

The Liu Family was just an ordinary household, though they had connections to a nobleman, they were far from being a family of great power and prestige.

They could not afford a major shock.

Liu Hao carefully turned his gaze to Cheng Guang, who was sitting at the head of the table, composed and indifferent.

Just one look at Cheng Guang made Liu Hao feel as if he were facing a mountain.

This kind of nobleman could claim his life with a single word.

An inexplicable pressure settled on his heart.

Liu Hao swallowed hard and cautiously inquired, "Princely Heir, may I ask whom you are seeking in the Liu Family?"

Cheng Guang looked up and glanced at Liu Hao.

"Do you know of Zhang Shunlong?"

Upon hearing Cheng Guang's words, Liu Hao's expression was one of astonishment; it was clear he had not expected to hear the name Zhang Shunlong from the mouth of such an esteemed Princely Heir.

Liu Hao quickly nodded, "Yes, Princely Heir, Zhang Shunlong is a servant in our household."

Cheng Guang felt somewhat relieved upon hearing this from Liu Hao.

Indeed, with Zhang Shunlong found, the matters following would be much easier to handle.

The task of making Zhang Shunlong's acquaintance seemed not to be difficult after all.

Cheng Guang casually inquired, "What is the character of this Zhang Shunlong like?"

Cheng Guang asked indifferently.

As Liu Hao observed Cheng Guang's expression, he could not be sure why the distinguished Princely Heir had come to his mansion in search of Zhang Shunlong, but he thought it unlikely that Zhang could possibly have connections with someone as noble as the Heir.

So, he firmly replied:

"Zhang Shunlong is lazy and often disobedient. He has made quite a few mistakes recently and has been frequently punished by the people in the mansion."

"Oh?" Cheng Guang's expression became odd.
