Zhang Ronghua stood up from his chair and said coldly,””You don’t know how to appreciate favors!”
He walked out expressionlessly.
In the courtyard.
Coincidentally, he saw Su Changhe and the others being captured by the Golden Scaled Mysterious Heavenly Army. Seeing him come out, Lu Junxiu admitted his mistake.”This subordinate did not do his job properly. Please punish me!”
Zhang Ronghua stepped forward and looked at them coldly. Facing his cold gaze, it was as if they were being stared at by a vicious poisonous snake. Su Changhe and the others panicked and fear appeared on their faces. However, when they thought of their fate, once they accepted their fate, they would lose all their face and become the laughing stock of the Scholar Hall. When the news spread and reached the ears of the neighbors, they would be like Lu Junxiu before, being pointed at, looked down on, and gossiped behind their backs.
They looked at each other and understood each other’s intentions. They could not accept their fate like this. They struggled desperately to break free from the control of the Golden Scale Mysterious Sky Army, but they were powerless. How could they be a match for the Golden Scale Mysterious Sky Army? His two arms were pressed down firmly, as steady as Mount Tai, unable to move at all. He could only kick around with his two legs.
“Zhang Qinglin, you’re biting the hand that feeds you!” Su Changhe said angrily.”
Zhang Ronghua waved his hand, and the Golden Scale Mysterious Heavenly Army released them. They did not retreat and stood at the side. As long as he gave the order, they could take down the five of them again.
He narrowed his eyes.
“Tell me, how did I repay kindness with ingratitude?” Zhang Ronghua asked.”
Su Changhe was at a loss for words. He had said this in a moment of desperation, but he had shot himself in the foot. Before this, the two sides had no interaction, even at work. Where was the favor?
“We didn’t do anything wrong, did we?” Why should we clean the latrines? It’s still built in the seven days?”
“Someone reported that when it’s windy and rainy, the leakage is very serious.
The Ministry of Works is also busy. It’s just a small matter.”
Su Changhe glanced around. At this moment, there were already quite a number of people who had come to watch the show. With their liezi, they hid far away, afraid that they would be the next unlucky one. He retorted,”Nonsense! The latrine had just been renovated less than two years ago. It had green bricks and red tiles. How could it leak?”
Zhang Ronghua smiled. He looked at the people in the Scholar Hall and asked,””Does the latrine leak?”
On one side was Zhang Ronghua, the head of the Hall of Scholars, who was in charge of the daily work. On the other side was Su Changhe and the others. They were not in power, and now they were being played. Even if one used their toes to think, they would know how to answer.
“Leaking! Still very serious
His voice was very loud and reverberated in the courtyard.
“Did you hear that?” asked Zhang Ronghua. What else do you have to say now?”
Su Changhe pointed at them angrily. His angry gaze seemed to want to eat these people up. “You, you guys…”
He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
“Even if it leaks, there are so many servants in the Scholar’s Hall, can’t we let them build it?”
“What do some servants know? If they were to delay the matter and fail to complete the work within the deadline, would everyone be able to go to the toilet? But you are different.
“Are you doubting my decision?” Zhang Ronghua’s face darkened.”
“You, you…”
Zhang Ronghua interrupted him roughly and said with a cold face, “Disdainful of your superiors, making a racket, and disrupting the normal order of the Scholar Hall like a shrew. Drag them out, and each of them will be punished with twenty strokes!”
Su Changhe was furious, “How dare you!”
With a wave of his hand, the surrounding Golden Scale Mysterious Heaven Army rushed forward violently and dragged them away. Each of them still wanted to struggle, but as they were dragged out of the door, they were hit with twenty big planks. All of them turned into screams. When it was over, they lost half of their lives like shriveled eggplants. They were thrown into the latrine and given tools. The Golden Scale Mysterious Heaven Army was guarding outside. They either did their job obediently or stayed inside…
He looked at the remaining people.
“Do you have nothing to do?” Zhang Ronghua reprimanded.”
The group of people scattered and fled. They did not dare to stay any longer. This Manager Zhang was really too ruthless. Just because of a small matter the day before yesterday, he used Su Changhe and the others to establish his prestige.
But then again, if someone challenged their authority like this, they would not feel good either.
If he couldn’t suppress the people below, he probably wouldn’t even be able to pass down the decree, let alone do anything.
He entered the main hall.
Zhang Ronghua sat down on the chair. Lu Junxiu lowered his head, as if he had not done his job well.
“I don’t blame you for this! Their reaction was within my expectations.” “Thank you, sir, for not punishing me!”
He immediately told her the latest news from the imperial court.
Today is the morning court.
Changqing Academy’s revenge against He Wenxuan began. The Imperial Censor jumped out and accused him of having an indecent lifestyle. He had raped a girl. He was already engaged and was about to get married soon. He used his power to force the girl to be his concubine. The man was not convinced. He only said a few harsh words before his leg was broken and he was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice.
Naturally, He Wenxuan’s men would not agree to this. They stood out and started to argue with them. However, the truth was that the woman who was engaged to him was now his concubine. The unlucky man had broken his leg and had been locked up in prison for three months. He had not been released yet. In the first round of confrontation, his men had lost.
The Xia Emperor had sent people to investigate. Since He Wenxuan had dared to do such a thing, the matter had already been handled flawlessly. The news they found was different from what the Evergreen Academy had thought. The woman had voluntarily destroyed her marriage and even paid compensation.
She was willing to be He Wenxuan’s concubine. Her father had also agreed. There was no rape..
