Wei Shang bent his body and told him the news from the Ministry of Works.
“You stayed in the library for a day?”
“Yes.”
Thinking back to how Zhang Ronghua had registered himself in the Book
Collection Hall and created the Supreme Nirvana Life Technique, the Xia Emperor probed, “You want to finish reading the books on refining and materials in the Spirit Research Department and then research a new material to replace the Heaven Shaking Powder?”
“Judging from his previous style of doing things, that’s most likely the case!”
The Xia Emperor finished the remaining spirit cake in his hand and took another sip of tea. A mocking expression appeared on his face. “Is this little guy’s talent really that terrifying?”
“This old servant does not know! However, there were only seven days left for him. After today, there were six days left. If he could not find a replacement material for the Sky Shaking Powder within the stipulated time and delay the delivery of the Sky Shaking Thunder, some people would make him take the blame and take the opportunity to remove him from his official position and demote him to a commoner.”
The Xia Emperor gave a rare smile, one that was not mixed with any benefits. It came from his heart.”This is also quite good. We can take the opportunity to transfer him to the Hall of Ten Thousand Books and let him organize the books. With his knowledge, it can be considered to be put to good use.” He shook his head again.
“In this way, it’s a waste of talent. Zhen believes in him. Although it’s difficult to use the Sky Shaking Powder, it can’t trap him!”
Wei Shang subtly flattered,””How can a person that His Majesty values be simple?”
“Have you caught the spy from the Shang Kingdom?”
When the Spiritual Treasure of Destiny appeared, Emperor Xia sent out two groups of people. One group chose to keep an eye on the Time
Treasure -Seeking Mouse, led by the azure-robed elder from last night.
Unfortunately, they did not obtain the treasure and had even died at Zhang Ronghua’s hands. The other group was to keep an eye on the intelligence forces of the Grand Shang Empire in the capital. They had previously obtained some clues, and with the appearance of the Spiritual Treasure of Destiny, they followed the clues and dug out more.
“Secretly imprisoned in Nether Prison. I have ordered people to interrogate them and find ways to pry open their mouths. We will dig out the remaining intelligence forces of the Shang Kingdom and eliminate them in one fell swoop!”
The Xia Emperor’s index finger and middle finger tapped on the dragon throne, producing a resounding ” dong dong ” sound. This time, a longer period of time had passed, and even the atmosphere had become solemn and heavy. It was filled with an oppressive force, and the powerful aura was something that even those with strong mental fortitude would not be able to withstand.
Wei Shang guessed it and lowered his head.
After a while.
The Xia Emperor’s voice was as cold as a blade, devoid of any emotion.”Who in the palace made a move?”
Wei Shang didn’t know how to answer. From the time the Time Treasure -Seeking Mouse appeared until now, he had already sent people to investigate with all his might. However, since the people in the palace dared to make a move, they had naturally done a thorough job. It wasn’t flawless, but it was almost the same. There was still a short time. If they wanted to find out who it was, even if they had a target, they didn’t have direct evidence. When it came to this, they could eat casually, but they couldn’t speak carelessly. They had to take responsibility. Even he couldn’t bear this responsibility!
The Xia Emperor didn’t ask again. He got the news he wanted from his expression. Some things couldn’t be rushed.
He changed the topic.
“Has Zhen’s little aunt-in-law been in contact with him these few days?”
Wei Shang smiled, his old face like a chrysanthemum. He said mockingly,””l changed to a different method.”
He told her about how Snow Garden had left the Phoenix Guards and moved to Zhang Ronghua’s house near the Rich Square.
The Xia Emperor smiled as well, but his smile was very cold.”A honey trap?
“Yes, sir!”
“What about Hong Ling?”
“The last time Shi Xueyuan followed Su Qiutang to the Green Qilin Mansion, she was injured by Hong Ling. This time, she changed her method and wanted to attack his parents.”
“Pass down the order to not touch her. I want to see what other methods they have!”
“This old servant understands!”
Vermilion Bird Sect.
After parting ways with Ding Yi, Zhang Ronghua didn’t go back. He walked towards the Fate Academy. He would have to trouble Yang Hongling to handle the gold and silver.
He met a familiar face on the street. It was the old man who sold candied haws last time. The latter’s eyes lit up when he saw him. He carried the wooden rack and ran over excitedly. He stopped panting and grinned, revealing his big yellow teeth. “Do you want it?”
“I don’t like sour food.”
“I’m fine! You don’t like it, but that girl likes it.”
Zhang Ronghua took out a tael of silver and handed it over to the old man. He took the wooden shelf and did not leave. He rubbed his palms and looked expectant. “Two taels!”
“One tael? If you don’t sell it to me, I’ll return it to you.”
“This, this…”
Zhang Ronghua smiled and left with the candied haws.
Looking at his back as he left, the old man cursed in his heart,”Stingy! I earned less this time.”
They arrived at Fate Academy.
Duan Jiu was stunned. He subconsciously glanced at the sky. It was still early. It wasn’t even dark yet. Just as he was about to go up, he looked at the candied haws on Zhang Ronghua’s shoulder and looked up at the sky. He pretended that he didn’t see anything and was about to take a step forward. He stood firmly on the spot and didn’t move at all.
Zhang Ronghua was amused. He could dodge it by pretending not to see? Everyone had a share, and none of them could escape. Facing their bitter faces, each of them gave one and entered Destiny Academy, walking towards the forbidden area.
Passing by the outer courtyard, he met another acquaintance-Mei Changshu!
Seeing that he had arrived, the United States did not notice the candied haws on their shoulders. They welcomed him warmly from afar,””Senior Brother!” “How have you been recently?” asked Zhang Ronghua.”
Mei Changshu said,” It’s much more fulfilling than before. I’ve been attending classes, writing articles, and cultivating. I’ve cultivated the Righteousness Qi so that I can comprehend it as soon as possible..'”‘
