Every mention of meeting his old father-in-law gave Chen Jiusi a headache, since his old father-in-law was no ordinary person.
Ruyang King, Heavenly List Expert, the leader of Jiangnan Five Roads Eighty-One Prefectures, a true big shot.
If Ruyang King only held these titles, Chen Jiusi wouldn't care much, after all, what kind of big shot hasn't he met? Even the Emperor was surrounded by him, if the Emperor hadn't dodged into the Ancestor Tower, maybe the Daqian Emperor would have been replaced by him, so high office and status don't attract Chen Jie much, nor does he fear them.
But Ruyang King had another identity, he was the father of the Commandery Princess.
This identity made Chen Jie wary, because he could treat the Emperor and other Heavenly List Experts equally, and if displeased, he dared to confront them.
