Chapter 445: Chapter 441: The Surrender of the Eight Clans

“Young Master, the nine households that originally agreed to stay in the Pavilion have reneged and have scurried away at the news of the flood. I wasn’t able to persuade them to stay, please punish me,” Hua Ji said with a dejected face.

Understanding the situation, Tang Luo replied directly, “That’s human nature, nothing to do with you. Go find them again and tell them that the Star Pavilion will cover all their food, clothing, and other needs during the flood. Gather all nine households, then escort them, along with Ying Hongyuan, back to Tang Mansion.”

“I am on my way!” Having received these orders, Hua Ji ran towards Fengqing Alley.

Tang Luo turned to Ying Hongyuan again, “Ying, please take care of the nine star tokens in the Star Pavilion and escort Hua Ji back to the mansion.” He was not worried about the arrangements at Tang Mansion. Although his mother Xu Shuhui had always borne the title of matriarch, Uncle Fu, the steward, handled most of the household affairs. After his father Tang Sen became the First Head of the Martial Hall and took over the complex management of the Hall’s food and accommodation, he assigned the various chores of the mansion to several stewards and enlisted himself in the Martial Hall as one of them.

Although Xu Shuhui had taken Xu Ping and Chang Le, two of the stewards, to visit her relatives in Yuanzhou, he was sure that with Uncle Fu in charge, the mansion would be able to respond swiftly. That was a certainty.
