He entered the Heaven’s Might Gate and went up the Purple Extreme Avenue until he reached the outside of the Purple Extreme Hall. He entered from the side door on the left and stood in the line of the Ministry of Works.

She followed him over.

The nearby officials and some well-informed people had already received the news. They knew that the Flame Thunder Pearl had displayed its might in Wangtian County. It had severely injured the Shang army and killed 60,000 enemies. As the person in charge of refining it, how much credit did he have? She was envious and jealous in her heart. He had taken all the benefits.

Zhang Ronghua ignored the strange gazes around him and stood straight like a sharp sword. He looked down at his nose and mouth, fishing in the water. As long as it didn’t call him or involve their faction, he wouldn’t move.

A few minutes later.

Eunuch Xiao came in with two eunuchs and closed the Purple Extreme Door and the two side doors. The sound of the door closing could be heard, and everyone’s hearts trembled. They secretly thought that the real show was about to begin.

They raised their heads and looked over. Under their gazes, heavy and powerful footsteps could be heard from behind them. They carried a certain rhythm, but also seemed to carry a great pressure. It entered their hearts, causing everyone to be unable to breathe. Emperor Xia wore a golden silk dragon robe. His gaze was dignified and pointed straight at the heart, emitting a great pressure. With his hands behind his back, he walked up from behind. Wei Shang and two eunuchs followed closely behind, but the Crown Prince was still nowhere to be seen.

Zhang Ronghua’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that his vitality had not recovered yet?

This matter should be suppressed for now, and the lower value should be discussed later.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Loud thunderclaps echoed between heaven and earth. Nine bolts of lightning fell from the sky like flowers scattered by fairies. They struck in all directions and enveloped the entire sky. Bean-sized raindrops poured down ferociously, smashing into everything. Strong winds howled, and a low, depressing sound was heard.

The officials cursed inwardly. This lousy weather!

The Xia Emperor sat on his dragon throne.

Wei Shang took a step forward. His face was tense, and his eyes were cold. He said in a deep voice,” If you have something to report, then report. If not, then withdraw!”

Xu Shidao stepped forward and bowed. The Flame Thunder Pearl refined by Doctor Zhang from the Ministry of Works was extremely powerful in the battle at Wangtian County last night. It wiped out 60,000 enemy troops and subdued the lost Gu PO Town. I suggest that you reward it heavily!”

Pei Cai stepped forward and bowed.

His faction, the Crown Prince’s power in the court, Xu Shidao’s power, and the power that Zhang Ronghua had nurtured himself all stood up.

For a moment.

Nearly one-tenth of the people in the court stepped forward!

The officials were shocked. It had only been a short while, but Zhang Ronghua had suddenly gained a huge amount of power that no one could ignore.

It wasn’t over yet. The military had benefited the most from the Flame Thunder Pearl. Firstly, it was for their own use. Secondly, they were united against a common enemy. The troops of Wangtian County had killed 60,000 enemies. Although they didn’t go to the battlefield, they were happy to see so many enemies killed. Even if they had any thoughts, they wouldn’t show them now.

It was not worth it to offend Zhang Ronghua! Judging from the talent he had displayed, if he could refine the Flame Thunder Pearl, he might be able to refine other powerful feys. The stronger the feys, the more contributions they would make when the war started, and the fewer soldiers they would die.

He immediately stood up and agreed with Xu Shidao’s proposal. Almost one-third of the officials in the court stepped out.

No one, no matter who it was, would be able to ignore such immense power. Even the Xia Emperor would have to treat it seriously.

The neutral party saw that the situation had already taken shape and was a fence-sitter. They acted according to the situation. If there were benefits, they would take them. If there were no benefits, they would follow the wind. They immediately stepped forward and agreed to reward them heavily!

Only the prince’s faction, Grand Secretary Cui, and the other opposing factions were left. Although they hated Zhang Ronghua and wanted him to suffer, they had no choice but to agree with the majority.

Emperor Xia spoke, and his majestic voice rang out in the hall.” Zhang

Ronghua has made great contributions in refining the Flaming Thunder Pearl. Zhang Qin will be conferred the title of Grand Doctor Xuanhe, and Zheng Rou will be conferred the title of Madam Zhongshan. He will be rewarded with a shop on the Vermilion Bird Avenue, a thousand taels of gold, a pair of jade ruyi, and ten bolts of high-quality silk!”

Doctor Xuanhe and Madam Zhongshan were of the fifth rank. They only had honor and no power. Those who did not make great contributions had no chance of obtaining them.

Although Zhang Ronghua had only obtained a shop on Vermilion Bird Avenue, the actual benefits were far more than a little power.

It was exactly the same as the conversation that night.

When you were young, you were proud of your father. When you grow up, your father will be proud of you!

Zhang Ronghua stepped forward. He had guessed that he would not be promoted. He did not expect the Emperor to reward his parents. It was a pleasant surprise. He bowed and thanked the Emperor.” Thank you, Your Majesty!”

The Xia Emperor smiled. A gentle smile appeared on his aged face.” Three generations of loyal and faithful men. A plaque of loyalty and loyalty!”

Boom!

The officials were shocked. This reward was even greater!

Although it was just a plaque, its value was too great. Jian was in the emperor’s heart. The way he looked at Zhang Ronghua changed. He wanted to replace him.

The First Prince, Grand Secretary Cui, and the others clenched their fists tightly under their sleeves. The enemy had become more powerful, but they couldn’t stop him.

“You may leave!” The Xia Emperor waved his hand.

Zhang Ronghua returned to his formation and continued standing.

The matter of Wangtian County had not been brought up in the Imperial Court, so it should have already begun. The Ministry of Works was in charge of forging, while the Bureau of Military Personnel would formulate a plan. The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets would then complete it and submit it to the Xia Emperor.

There were too many people in the Imperial Court, and there might be spies from the Shang Dynasty. If the plan was approved and they were prepared in advance, it would be a huge loss for Great Xia..
