Chapter 877: Zhang Ronghua Makes a Move
Du Chengming and the others were also furious. It was as if they had eaten a fly, and they could not say anything.
The Xia Emperor deliberately made a little noise. When the officials looked over, a dignified and domineering voice rang out.” Li Yuliang and Zhang Ronghua openly attacked in the Purple Extreme Hall. It’s an insult to their culture. They will be fined a month’s salary!”
“???”
The officials wondered if they had heard wrongly. This, wasn’t this too light?
Bai Yichang had been beaten to such a state, his face was swollen, his face was disfigured, and there was blood everywhere. Was he only going to be punished with a month’s salary? Zhang Ronghua had so many businesses under him, and he was earning a lot of money every day. He didn’t expect to live on his salary, so punishing him was equivalent to not punishing him at all. However, since the Emperor had spoken, he had to admit it even if he didn’t want to!
The most unlucky one was still Li Yuliang. He broke the rules first, which led to what happened later. Bai Yichang, Du Chengming, and the others might hate him!
“Yes, Your Majesty!” The two of them replied.
Emperor Xia continued.” Lu Zhantang has recovered the formula of the Flamespark Pearl. He has been transferred to the Soul Palace as a Soul Envoy. He will be rewarded with one entry into the imperial palace’s arsenal and two top-grade Heaven Realm medicinal pills!”
Shua!
Everyone was shocked and looked over in disbelief.
The position of a divine soul envoy was the same as that of a divine envoy, but the former had more power. The person in charge was a soul master. Soul masters of the same realm were invincible, but the god of war, or even killing them, was really too terrifying.
How was this a promotion? It was clearly a leap to the heavens!
Other than that.
Apart from soul masters, the Soul Palace did not have a single martial artist. This was a break from many years of tradition. They did not dare to think that a martial artist would be in charge. The hidden meaning behind this was great, and they did not dare to show their thoughts on their faces.
Bai Yichang regretted it the most. If he had known this would happen, he would not have stopped Zhang Ronghua and let Lu Zhantang be promoted to the Oracle. Now, not only was he beaten up and humiliated, but he had also attracted a lot of hatred. He had attracted the anger of the princes and other factions and even transferred him to the Soul Palace.
Looking at Soul Palace’s Palace Master Hun Qingzhu’s face, it was clearly cold and peerless. It was so familiar that it turned purple. It perfectly fused power and authority together. No one dared to look directly at it. At this moment, it was like ice and snow. Even the surrounding temperature had dropped by several degrees.
Although Jiu Xuanji was surprised, he was still one of them. He had helped him get through this obstacle. He hurriedly thanked him.” Thank you, Your Majesty!”
“Order the Sky-burn Palace to investigate this matter and find out who killed Lei Daoyuan!” Emperor Xia continued.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Ning Yichen, the Palace Lord of the Sky-burn Palace, stepped forward.
After the dust settled, everyone returned to their formation.
Xu Xing stood out,”Reporting to Your Majesty! Yesterday, the demons caused a commotion. I led my men to destroy a stronghold of the Path of Hell and killed Ghostface Yama and a number of his subordinates.”
Zhang Ronghua had just made a suggestion. Pei Caicai walked out of the queue of the Ministry of Rites and bowed. He said,” This is a great merit. It will be recorded as excellent. When you are promoted, you will be given priority. Then, you will be rewarded!”
“Five hundred taels of gold, one heaven-grade medicinal pill, and three bolts of top-grade silk brocade!” Emperor Xia said.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
The court session ended and everyone dispersed.
Zhang Ronghua left with Ding Yi through the side door on the left. He slowed down his pace and Chen Youcai caught up with him. He pointed to a corner and the three of them walked over.
“Let’s go visit Old Lu together in the future.”
“I’ll go over later,” Zhang Ronghua shook his head.
Chen Youcai was stunned and thought of the True Dragon Token. Then I’ll go over tonight.”
He asked in a deep voice.
“What do you think of today’s matter?”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t hide anything and spoke his mind,” Firstly, Du Chengming and the others attacked at the right time. The court session had just started and they had already jumped out like a swarm of bees. It was obvious that they had planned this. They wanted to take down Jiu Xuanji. Li Yuliang’s appearance pushed the matter to the peak. From this, it seems that he is from Changqing Academy. Even if he didn’t, he must have reached an agreement before he stepped in. It can be inferred that the mastermind wants to get rid of Jiu Xuanji.”
The True Dragon Palace might not have a good reputation, but Jiu Xuanji was loyal to Emperor Xia. Taking him down was a small matter, but getting rid of the Emperor’s great help was the real deal.
“The person behind the scenes has ulterior motives,” Chen Youcai agreed.
Zhang Ronghua continued,” Jiu Xuanji was slapped because His Majesty was beating him. He was very unhappy about what happened last night. He must have seen through it, so he didn’t dodge. Otherwise, with his cultivation, Li Yuliang wouldn’t even be able to touch his clothes even if he used all his strength!”
“I think so too. Last night’s incident was indeed very big.”
” Secondly, the Imperial Censorate is very powerful. Du Chengming has the power to cover the sky with one hand. From this incident, once he goes down, countless people will jump out to follow him. His Majesty is very unhappy!”
“I really understand it,” sighed Chen Youcai.
Zhang Ronghua continued,”Old Lu was transferred to the Soul Palace and was also rewarded with two top-grade Heaven-tier pills in the palace’s arsenal. His Majesty should be making arrangements. The Soul Palace is the strongest among the four departments. We should take this opportunity to place people in and strengthen His Highness’s (our) authority.”
” Although Old Lu’s ability is not bad, I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult for him to gain a firm foothold in the Soul Palace!”
“We can only advance, we can’t retreat! If he can’t do it, we’ll help!”
“Well said! If one person is unable to tear open the Soul Palace, then we will tear it together. Let’s see if they can withstand it.” Pausing for a moment, Chen Youcai smiled evilly and blinked.
” There are many beautiful women in the Soul Palace. The women inside are as beautiful as the moon and flowers. Old Lu has picked up a huge bargain this time.”
“He dares?” Zhang Ronghua teased.
They looked at each other and laughed.
After they finished their business, this was not a place to stay, so the two of them parted ways.
He returned to the Imperial Censorate.
