“Where are the samples and the list?”
“Old Huang is tidying it up. He will send it over when it’s done.”
While they were talking, Huang Zhongshi and the other two trotted in with their official robes. Their smiles were so wide that they looked like flowers. They stopped in front of him and handed over the list and samples in their hands without paying any attention to their greetings.
Zhang Ronghua took the list. Bows, spears, and swords were all ordinary weapons, but they could improve their power by one-third. It was rare. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. After passing the first test, the rest will be easy.
He glanced at the list and handed it over. He tried the three items one by one. It was indeed as he had said. It was not fake.
“Give them to Minister Fu,” he ordered.
“Yes, sir!” Huang Zhongshi replied respectfully.
Zhang Ronghua continued,” After you’ve finished modifying the ordinary materials, weapons, and poisons, I’ll teach you how to fuse feys. If you encounter something you don’t understand and can’t overcome it, feel free to ask. Don’t force yourself.”
“This subordinate understands!”
The three of them left.
“Let’s go back,” Zhang Ronghua said.
He left the Ministry of Works and walked out of the palace, not even changing out of his official robes.
At the Vermillion Bird Gate’s gate, there was a carriage. Six top Divine Heavenly Dragons pulled the carriage. The carriage was extraordinary and was made of thousand-year-old purple wood. On both sides of the carriage, there was a ‘ Huo ” character, representing Marquis Wushuang’s Huo family.
The carriage was called the Northguard Carriage.
Two young men leaned against the car and chatted casually. One of them was dressed in a blue brocade robe with a white tiger embroidered on his chest. He had long fangs and looked fierce. His eyes were like blood-red jade, deep and cold, making people afraid. He held a folding fan in his hand, and with his cynical temperament, he looked very funny. It was Huo Jingyun.
The other person was wearing a white robe. The style was ordinary, straight, and made of natural silk. There was no decoration at all. He had a blue ponytail and was gentle and refined. He was mature and steady, and he gave off a scholarly aura. It was Xu Xing.
What happened in the royal court was no secret. As the court session ended, it spread immediately. Many people congratulated him. Before he could ask for more details, Jiang Tian returned from the palace and called him over.
Although he was unhappy and Xu Xing did not discuss the transfer with him in advance, he was not like Jiu Xuanji, who was petty, fierce, and heartless. He had always treated his subordinates well and was sincerely happy for them to have a good future. He had the support of his subordinates and had a good reputation. He told him what had happened in the imperial court, the two cabinet elders, Zhang Ronghua’s support, the Minister of War Xu Shidao, Fu Kun, and the military bigwigs, as well as his own guess.
He thought for a moment.
Xu Xing felt that Daren was right. The two ministers and the military bigwigs should have said good things for Zhang Ronghua’s sake. Including last night’s idea, they owed him a big favor this time.
Jiang Tian asked again how he persuaded the two Pavilion Elders to step forward.
Xu Xing recounted the matter. The relationship left behind by his mother, Grand Secretary Wei owed him a favor back then! After leaving Heavenly Earth last night, Grand Secretary Wei paid him a visit in the middle of the night to discuss the matter in detail. Grand Secretary Wei didn’t promise him anything and told him to go back and wait for news.
As for Grand Secretary Zeng, he should have been the one who came forward to exchange benefits.
After using the favor this time, the favor in the future would fade away. Fortunately, the transfer was successful and it was completed beyond the quota.
After listening.
Jiang Tian was silent for a while. Seeing that he had served the Red Heaven
Palace for many years, he reminded him to be on good terms with Zhang Ronghua. This person’s ability was too strong, and his rising momentum could not be suppressed. Building a good relationship with him was not the end. Perhaps it was just the beginning. In the future, he might not be able to get into the position of Minister of the Six Ministries or even higher.
Xu Xing was grateful and left after bowing.
The process of transferring from the Red Heaven Palace to the Shangjing government was complicated, and the departments involved were too large. If it weren’t for the support of the two cabinet elders, three ministers, and the military bigwigs, it would have been impossible. Just the procedures alone took half a day.
In the afternoon, he took up his post accompanied by the Right Assistant
Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. After the people from the Ministry of Personnel left, he went to visit Chen Youcai. He had also contributed to the court today. Moreover, he had a deep relationship with Zhang Ronghua. Lastly, he was the magistrate of Shangjing.
With Zhang Ronghua as a medium, although it was the first time the two of them talked in detail, they were like old friends who had been working together for many years. They reached a silent agreement and controlled Shangjing government and the entire capital.
A magistrate, a pushing official, and a judge were sandwiched in the middle. Even if their positions were stable, they were like rats on a holiday. Their days were very difficult. The four county yamen below were the same. They had their tails between their legs. The capital had completely entered the era of the word “Zhang”.
Furthermore, Zheng Fugui was working in the Fifth Division of the City Defense, so even the slightest movement could not be hidden from them.
Since he had officially stepped into the officialdom, he couldn’t avoid socializing. He had to be grateful. He had booked a private room in Heavenly
Earth in advance and invited Chen Youcai, Wu Jinxiu, and the others to gather. He even came over himself and waited at the Vermillion Bird Sect to express his gratitude.
With the change in status, he naturally had to change his clothes to appear mature and steady.
” Mr. Xu,” Huo Jingyun teased,” you have to send more people to patrol the streets near Heavenly Earth in the future to maintain law and order.”
“With your Huo family’s power, who dares to behave atrociously there?” Xu Xing rolled his eyes.
“You don’t know what happened a while ago. Heavenly Earth was seized. Even
Lu Qingqing, Ningxue, and all the girls were imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice. If Second Uncle hadn’t stepped in in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.”
Xu Xing knew about this. It was said that Ning Xue was even tortured by Zhang Ronghua at that time. Not only did the Huo Family not take revenge, but they chose to go to her house to apologize and even gave her a cultivation technique and divine power..
