Chapter 670: Promoted Because of the Reason

Translator: 549690339

With a tap of his foot, he used all his movement techniques and rushed out.

“Umbrella…” Zheng Rou reminded.

It was already gone.

The Emperor had decreed that she had to go over as well. After leaving the hall, the servant girl held an umbrella and shielded her from the storm as she walked out.

They arrived at the front yard.

Zhang Qin happened to meet Eunuch Xiao who had just entered. He brought a team of Human Emperor Guards with him, and one of them held an umbrella for him.

Eunuch Xiao’s tense face smiled knowingly. He pointed inside.” Go inside and receive the edict!”

“Yes.” Zhang Qin replied.

He quickly swept his gaze over and saw a Human Emperor Guard holding a plaque in his hands. It was covered with a red cloth and protected by internal energy to prevent the rain from getting wet. He was curious as to what was written on it. Suppressing his doubts, he led the way to the backyard and met Zheng Rou who had rushed over. He greeted her and entered the hall.

Eunuch Xiao took out the imperial edict from his bosom. He stopped smiling and said in a deep voice, “Zhang Qin, Zheng Rou, accept the imperial edict!” The two of them hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Opening the imperial edict, Eunuch Xiao read out, “By the will of heaven, the emperor’s edict says… You taught your son well. Zhang Qin is conferred the title of Doctor Xuanhe and Zheng Rou is conferred the title of Madam Zhongshan. You are a fifth-grade official and have been loyal for three generations. You are also bestowed with a loyalty plaque!”

He had already retired for a few years, and he could still be promoted?

He came back to his senses.

Zhang Qin’s heart was filled with excitement, and his blood was burning. He smiled happily. If there weren’t outsiders around, he would have laughed out loud and laughed to his heart’s content. He hurriedly expressed his gratitude.” Thank you, Your Majesty!”

He stood up from the ground and took the imperial edict and the matching official robe.

He didn’t need to go to court, nor did he need to do anything. He received a salary every month. Although the money was small, was this something that money could measure? Moreover, they did not lack money. Although they were not very rich, with the daily income from the six properties, they could still be considered middle-class even in the capital. This was an honor, a supreme honor that could not be bought with money.

The Human Emperor Guards stepped forward.

Eunuch Xiao took off the red cloth, revealing two large golden words,” Loyalty “. It was majestic and had its own style. It had the demeanor of a great family, as well as supreme dignity and dominance. He smiled and said,” This is a word personally mentioned by His Majesty!”

Boom!

Zhang Qin was once again shocked. He looked at the plaque in disbelief and thought about it for a long time. It seemed that the matter of the Flamespark Pearl was very important, and the contribution he had made was also exaggerated. That was why he was rewarded. With this plaque, there were many benefits. As long as the Zhang family did not make any mistakes, they would be able to soar!

“Phew!”

Taking a deep breath, he suppressed his excitement and hurriedly ordered Zhang Feng to hang the plaque on the wall with his guards.

He waved his hand.

He ordered people to bring ten silver notes, each of which cost two hundred taels. It was not a lot of money, but he gave it to the ten Human Emperor Guards out of goodwill.

” Thank you, Doctor Xuan He!” Eunuch Xiao said with a smile when he saw their hesitation.

“Thank you, Doctor Xuan He!” The ten Human Emperor Guards cupped their fists and said.

Eunuch Xiao waved his hand, signaling them to leave and stand guard outside.

Zhang Qin also ordered his men to leave, leaving them alone in the hall.

Eunuch Xiao smiled and said,” Qinglin has made a great contribution this time. In addition to these, there is also a shop on the Vermilion Bird Avenue, a thousand taels of gold, a pair of jade ruyi, and ten bolts of high-quality silk cloth. I will give these things to him when they are worth it.”

Zhang Qin poured the tea and took out the spiritual tea, Bitter Bodhi Tea. He brewed another pot and poured two cups. He handed one cup over and said,” It’s just as I guessed. Qing Lin was promoted too quickly. Even if he did meritorious deeds, he couldn’t be promoted. It must be some other reward. I didn’t expect it to fall on us.”

“This is also a helpless move!”

After chatting for a while, Zhang Qin got up and sent him out of the residence.

He looked at Zhang Feng and ordered,” Send someone to Ru Family Restaurant and inform He Bao that we won’t be having any guests at noon. Tell him to prepare demon meat. Master is treating us.”

“I’ll do it now!”

She waved her hand and asked him to leave.

They entered the lobby.

Looking at the light red official uniform on the table, Zhang Qin couldn’t help but take off his clothes and change into it on the spot. He then put on his official hat and pulled a long face. His temperament changed. He was serious, threatening, and had a strong aura. The awe-inspiring aura he had in the Flood Dragon Guards came back. He asked in a deep voice,” How is it?”

Puchi!

Zheng Rou couldn’t help but break through her defense, covering her mouth and giggling.

Spirit Research Department.

In the Book Palace.

Zhang Ronghua had read more than half of it last time, and there were still some that he hadn’t read yet. After he came here, he continued to read. He read very quickly, ten lines at a glance. In a few breaths, he had finished reading a page. He memorized the contents and comprehended them. He was multitasking like a high-speed machine, increasing his foundation. He skimmed through the books one after another.

An hour later.

Brother!” Ding Yi ran over and knocked on the door.” Brother, open the door quickly.”

Zhang Ronghua frowned. Was it done so quickly? He put down the book, walked over, and opened the door.

“Let’s go!” Ding Yi called out.

He walked out of the palace and walked along the corridor.

After a while.

They stopped at the corner and looked at the courtyard in front of them. There were people everywhere. They ignored the rain and stood in the courtyard. They waved their fists and shouted,” Cui Jiancheng, get out here!”

The sound was so loud that even the thunder above the nine heavens could not cover it.

Zhang Ronghua leaned against the wall and crossed his arms. The corners of his mouth curled up. He smiled unkindly.” It’s alright.”

Ding Yi sighed.” This is a talent. To be able to accomplish all of this in such a short period of time, it must have been hard on him..”
