Bai Yuan and Chen Danian quickly finalized their division of labor.
Simply put, Chen Danian was responsible for matters within Lingzhou City, while Bai Yuan handled everything outside of it.
Anyone with eyes could see this was a blatant move to sideline Chen Danian.
However, everything went smoothly—or rather, this was precisely what Chen Danian had hoped for.
If it were some other vice-prefect bent on achieving merits, a life-or-death struggle with Bai Yuan would have been inevitable. But Chen Danian had no interest in politics to begin with, so he accepted the arrangement with pleasure.
Bai Yuan didn't waste much effort on power struggles with Chen Danian. For someone like him, who had a cheat system, growing stronger was the only thing that mattered.
As long as he was strong enough, the Court would naturally grant him official positions. He immediately gathered the remaining soldiers in Ling Province and headed for the border with Dingzhou.
