Translator: 549690339
The Ru Family Restaurant was not open for business today. Manager He Bao had received a message from Zheng Fugui in the morning. His cousin had instructed him to close the restaurant after noon and prepare the demon meat and other ingredients for dinner.
In the afternoon.
He Bao stood guard at the door, waiting for Zhang Ronghua. When he saw him appear, he smiled and bent over, fawning over him. He quickly went up to him, “Boss, you’re here!”
“Yes.” Zhang Ronghua nodded.
“Are you all here?”
“Lord Zheng and the others have arrived long ago. They are playing cards and chatting in the room in the backyard.”
“Ask Big Mouth Shen to bring us the signature dishes and Qinghua wine.'”‘ After entering the restaurant, he walked towards the backyard.
Before they arrived, the sounds of fighting in the room came out first.
Zhang Ronghua smiled and pushed the door open.
Chen Youcai, Lu Zhantang, Zheng Fugui, and Ding Yi were all there. After closing the door, the four of them stood up from their chairs and greeted him
He answered them one by one and pulled out a chair to sit down.
Zheng Fugui put away his cards and served eight plates of spirit fruits. He poured tea from the teapot and placed it in front of everyone.
She took a sip of the tea and put it down.
“Have you met His Highness?” asked Zhang Ronghua.”
“Yes.” Lu Zhantang nodded solemnly.
“I was lucky this time. Fortunately, I was in the True Dragon Palace. If I was in the officialdom, I would have lost my position like Ping Bo and Chang ‘an.” The two of them were not jealous of their promotion at all.
It was a complete accident. If His Majesty had not intervened at the critical moment, they would have been frozen by now and would not have been able to advance any further.
“What do you think?”
Lu Zhantang held a black grape and squeezed it roughly. The juice splashed out and drenched his palm. “If you don’t advance, you will die!”
They were all smart people, so there was no need to say too much.
They would all know what to do when they returned. They would try their best to nurture their forces. Ability was secondary. The key was loyalty. When that day came, they had to be decisive and withstand the beating of the wind and waves!
He pondered for a moment.
Thinking back to the Xia Emperor’s body, he didn’t know exactly how it was like. Even if it was worse, if they cultivated the Paragon Nirvana Life-Giving Art, they would be able to last for three years. Then, they would create a follow-up art that would increase their lifespan even more. In that way, they would be able to live longer. With this buffer time, it would be enough for their factions to grow.
Zhang Ronghua added,” When the opportunity appears, grab it and climb up!
Even if you don’t have a chance, you have to create one.”
His gaze fell on them.
“Have you completed the transfer procedures?”
Chen Youcai took over.” It’s relatively simple on my side. I just need to go through the motions at the Ministry of Personnel Affairs. I’ll finish it in the afternoon and execute the power of the magistrate.”
“Who is the new official?”
“It hasn’t been decided yet! The various factions were still clashing, and it should take another two days.”
“How confident are you that the capital will operate according to your wishes?”
He had been promoted from Dongcheng County Yamen, so his foundation was still there. When he was transferred to Shangjing Prefecture, the team there had not dispersed and was still attached to him. During his time as a pushing official, he had nurtured some confidants. This time, he had been promoted to the top position, and his subordinates had risen with the tide. His foundation was much more stable than Ren Shangxuan’s. It should not be difficult to control the four county yamen and Shangjing Prefecture.
Chen Youcai laughed unkindly. He threw a black grape into his hand, ate the meat, spat out the skin, and stroked his beard.”Before the new official takes office, we should work with Judge Huang Daoning to freeze all the people left behind by Ren Shangxuan. Then, we should place his trusted aides in important positions. By the time the new official takes office, the power that belongs to him will have been taken over by us and he will only be a puppet! This time, I took the big share and Huang Daoning drank some soup.” He squinted his eyes and emitted a confident glow.
“If your side is ready, even if we have to fight to the death now, I have a 50% chance of controlling the entire capital!”
This was the Imperial City, the foot of the Renhuang. Fifty percent confidence was already very high.
“50% is not enough!” Zhang Ronghua shook his head. At least 80% ”
“l understand!”
Seeing that they were done, Zheng Fugui said, ‘”‘The transfer procedures have been completed. I can take up my post tomorrow to guard the north gate.”
He touched the back of his head.
“Cousin, Lord Xu seems to favor me.”
“It should be related to me!” Zhang Ronghua said uncertainly.” He recounted what had happened in the Imperial Court that day.
After listening.
Zheng Fugui understood. He thought that his ability was strong and that he had caught his eye. He did not expect that he was overthinking it.
“What about you, Qinglin?” asked Chen Youcai.”
Zhang Ronghua smiled confidently.” I don’t have to worry. The Firethunder
Pearl has already been refined and I have a firm foothold in the Ministry of Works. The situation has opened up. Once I’m fully qualified, I’ll be able to think of ways to improve.”
“That’s good!” Chen Youcai and Lu Zhantang nodded.
In the small team, Zhang Ronghua was silently at the center and occupied the leading position. Even if Chen Youcai’s official position was temporarily two levels higher, he had to stand to the side.
This incident was the best proof.
Everyone knew of his ability. The Empress was afraid to make a move, and she did not dare to make a move. Instead, she made an example out of them. After leaving in the morning, Chen Youcai also thought of this.
Thump! Thump!
There was a knock on the door, and He Bao’s voice came from outside.
“Boss, the dishes are ready.”
“Come in!”
The door was pushed open.
He Bao walked in with four maids and placed the eight special dishes and the dishes made by the demons on the table. Finally, there was Qinghua wine. He put two jars in total and tactfully left.
“Let’s talk while we eat..””
