Translator: 549690339

“I know!”

Eunuch Xiao didn’t say anything else and left with his men.

In the main hall.

Lu Junxiu and the others were called in. The four chests were opened and placed in front of them. At a close distance, they felt the visual impact of the gold. No matter how strong their restraint was, they could not help but look over when faced with the temptation.

Each chest contained five hundred taels of gold, which added up to two thousand taels of gold.

Zhang Ronghua pointed at a chest.” Divide the gold in this chest among yourselves. Each of you will get eighty taels.””

The five of them were stunned.

Lu Junxiu reacted very quickly and hurriedly refused.”Sir, you can’t do that! This is a gift from His Majesty…”

Zhang Ronghua waved his hand to interrupt him.” You don’t have any other business outside. You only rely on your salary. Although it’s enough to maintain the expenses of the residence, it’s inevitable that you’ll be short of money. If he stretched out his hand and was discovered by others, he would not be able to eat his pocket and leave if he was stabbed to the Imperial

Censorate.”

“This, this…

“It’s settled then!”

Zhang Ronghua took out an empty Sumeru Bag and threw it to Cao Hang. ‘”‘This is a reward for you.”

Cao Hang received it excitedly. With the Sumeru Pouch, it would be much more convenient for him to do things in the future. He hurriedly thanked him,”Thank you for your reward, sir!”

He took a step forward and kept the box. He would divide it when it was time.

After they left, the door closed.

Zhang Ronghua pointed at a box.”

Ding Yi didn’t stand on ceremony. Although he didn’t lack money, this was his brother’s kind intention. He had to accept it and put the box into his Sumeru Pouch.

He waved his sleeves.

Zhang Ronghua put the remaining two boxes into the Five Dragons Spirit Controlling Belt and looked at Ding Yi. After this period of cultivation and the help of sufficient spiritual herbs, Ding Yi’s cultivation had already advanced to the ninth level of the Postnatal realm. His foundation was very solid. Under the nourishment of the Nirvana Supreme Life Technique, his meridians were thick and strong. His body and soul had also become stronger, and his lifespan had also increased a little.

She took out the remaining bottle of Hundred Spirit Pills and threw it over. She introduced it to his puzzled gaze, “This is a Heaven Rank low-grade Hundred Spirit Pill.”

Ding Yi accepted it with a smile and didn’t ask further.’”‘Thank you, brother!”

“Don’t waste wasting time.”

Zhang Ronghua got up from his chair and went into the inner room. He sat on the carpet and cultivated the Phoenix Divine Fire. He wanted to raise this divine power to the sixth revolution as soon as possible. By then, its power would become even stronger. The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.

In the office hall.

The two pairs of small eyes looked at each other. There was no emotion in each other’s eyes. They were as cold as ice.

After a while.

He Wenxuan couldn’t hold it in any longer. The anger that he had suppressed in his heart over the past few days exploded. He said unwillingly,”Why? He rose to the fourth grade!”

Bang!

Grand Elder Cui grabbed the teacup and smashed it on the floor angrily. The tea spilled onto the expensive carpet and he said angrily, “”This old man is also unwilling!”

He said again.

Originally, we could have suppressed his promotion speed, but His Majesty has already calculated everyone. If we don’t agree, he will be transferred to the army and become the Right General of Sky Bearing. That way, even though there is no direct relationship, he will still be involved in the conflicts between the factions. At the same time, he would offend most of the factions.”

He Wenxuan knew that the First Prince and the others would hate them if Zhang Ronghua was transferred to the army because of them. A single prince wasn’t a threat, and with their power, they wouldn’t be a threat. However, if all the princes worked together, even with Grand Secretary Cui’s protection, their lives would be difficult.

He was still unconvinced! It was also very aggrieved! They were the ones who proposed to write the biography of the Celestial Emperor. Not only did they lose people, but they also helped their political enemies get promoted and increase the arrogance of their enemies. However, they and the others were reduced to a joke in the imperial court.

Even a department directly under the Scholar’s Hall was controlled by Zhang Ronghua’s people. Grand Secretary Zeng had also taken advantage of the situation this time. He had transferred one of his men to the Scholar Hall and made him one of the managers.

In this way, in the end, everyone had benefited from the battle. Only they had worked hard for nothing and lost their men.

“Is Minister Fu really unrelated to the palace?’”‘

Minister Ful s full name was Fu Kun, Minister of Works.

“This old man doesn’t have any concrete information that can prove that he has joined the palace.”

He Wenxuan understood that even though there was no written rule to enter the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, there was a tacit rule. Only those with a clean identity and no connection to the palace would be qualified to be selected. Once they had connections with the palace, no matter how capable they were, they would be unable to advance further and become one of the most powerful people in the Great Xia Dynasty.

Pei Caihua is better than Fu Kun, who belongs to the younger generation. Although he is a minister of the Ministry of Industry, he is a low official. He is not qualified enough. He still has to wait for two or three years before he can run for office.

“Why don’t I make a trip there after I’m off duty?” he asked tentatively.”

Cui Ge Lao didn’t speak, he stretched out two fingers and knocked on the table, making a “dong dong” sound. His thoughts spun, he quickly thought about the pros and cons, and finally shook his head. “The situation isn’t clear, don’t act rashly!”

Knowing that He Wenxuan was not willing to accept it, she patiently comforted him.

“Fu Kun is a local tyrant, and Zhang Ronghua is a dragon who has crossed the river. When the biography of the Heavenly Emperor is written and spread to the lower levels, his reputation will soar and he will be in the limelight. He is in high spirits and can cause so many things in the Scholar Hall. Do you think he will stop when he reaches the Ministry of Works? Even if he was willing, would Fu Kun agree? After he went to the Ministry of Personnel Affairs to complete the transfer procedures tomorrow and went on duty, the eyes of the court would be focused on the Ministry of Works to watch them fight..”
