Emperor Xia swept his gaze across the crowd. No one dared to meet his gaze, which was filled with supreme authority. They all lowered their heads, and their gaze finally landed on Grand Secretary Cui. The latter also lowered his head, his eyes looking down at his nose and mouth. No one knew what he was thinking, but he withdrew his gaze. He was curious to see how far Zhang
Ronghua had gone. He said in a low voice, “Zhang Ronghua, step forward! ” Everything was within expectations.
Even if today’s court Cui Ge old does not make trouble, tomorrow, after the day also makes trouble, to this, Zhang Rong Hua does good, ready, from the queue in the middle, stand out, steady, walk to civil and military officials in front, distance royal platform five steps around, bow and salute: “Your Majesty, the new biography of the Human Emperor has been written smoothly. If nothing goes wrong, it will be completed within the stipulated time.”
Yan Lixue turned around and looked at him.”Manager Zhang, why don’t you tell me the progress in detail? If you don’t have enough manpower, you can bring it up at the same time.”
Zhang Ronghua laughed in his heart and cursed him for being an idiot! It would have been fine if he had only said the first half of the sentence, but he had to say the second half. Wasn’t this clearly an opportunity right in front of him? Instead of answering directly, he asked,””How should I address this lord?”
“Yan Lixue of the Chamberlain of Dependencies!”
He thought back briefly.
Zhang Ronghua understood. He had seen the list of department heads. Yan Lixue was a junior official in charge of the Honglu Temple, and from the looks of it, he was on Grand Secretary Cui’s side.
“So it’s Yan Shaoqing!”
Turning to the Xia Emperor, he said once more,”Your Majesty! Can you send someone to the Scholar Hall to retrieve the biography of the New Human Sovereign from Lu Junxiu and the others? I’m afraid that my words have no evidence. If you don’t believe me, you’ll doubt my ability.”
“Correct!” the Xia Emperor said.
Wei Shang ordered a eunuch behind him to inform Eunuch Xiao and let him personally lead his men to do it. This way, he would be more assured.
The court once again fell silent. The officials were curious. Had Zhang Ronghua really edited it? And the progress was great? If not, why would he be fearless? Please send someone to fetch it.
If the matter had nothing to do with him, he would just sit there quietly and watch the show. If there was a chance, he would not mind stepping on the Crown Prince again. He would take this opportunity to hit the Crown Prince when he was down and attack his prestige.
The morning court session had reached this point, and the sky outside was already bright. It was just when the night and dawn were changing. The first rays of the sun broke through a corner, and Lu Junxiu and the others had already arrived. Eunuch Xiao had just entered the Scholar’s Hall with his men when they bumped into them. After informing them of their intentions, Lu Junxiu and the others did not dare to delay. They handed the first part of the Legend of the Celestial Emperor and the nine chapters of the second part to him. After Eunuch Xiao left, they entered Zhang Ronghua’s office hall.
Ding Yi sat in his seat. The main seat was empty. Even if Zhang Ronghua wasn’t around, no one dared to sit. Lu Junxiu and Zhao Bai sat down one by one, while Jin Yaoguang and the other two waited in the main hall.
Cao Xing closed the door and stood guard outside.
Lu Junxiu shared his guess. “The palace has sent someone to retrieve the Celestial Emperor’s Legacy. It seems that Grand Secretary Cui has made his move again! This time, his plan was going to fail. Never in his dreams would he have thought that not only did His Excellency write it, but the progress was also so fast. Moreover, the Legend of the Celestial Emperor was much stronger than the old version of the Legend of the Human Emperor. The effects were also several times stronger. Once it was completed and spread, the whole world would be bathed in His Majesty’s holy might and forever feel the Emperor’s grace! ”
Zhao Bai and the others nodded. They had the same thoughts as him.
Ding Yi smiled slightly and took a sip of tea. He was a little impatient to know what was going on in the imperial court.
As Eunuch Xiao returned. he handed over the Celestial EmDeror’s BiograDhv.
Wei Shang handed it to Emperor Xia and received the documents that had been arranged. Zhao Bai and the others had already registered it, and on the cover were three large words: ” Celestial Emperor’s Biography.”
Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes, trying to guess the meaning behind these three words. He pondered for a long time, thinking of all sorts of possibilities, but he still felt that something was wrong. If that was all, then it could not be compared to the old version of the Legend of the Human Emperor. He calmly flipped open the book. The first page recorded the general principles: The Celestial Thearch ruled over the three worlds. Godfiends, humans, demons, and ghosts had absolute control over the lives of all living beings!
The dragon’s eyes lit up and his heart trembled. He was shocked by the outline. He subconsciously glanced at Zhang Ronghua and then retracted his gaze. He was very, very satisfied. He then looked down. Although only the first and second parts were written, and there was no shadow of the third part, each part had a simple introduction. When it was officially promoted, it would be removed.
The first part was about his diligence and hard work. The second part was about governing the country and providing the people with ample food and clothing. The third part was about foreign wars, suppressing true spirits, demons, ghosts, and the Great Shang Dynasty.
The content was concise and focused. It was refreshing. It was difficult to forget after listening to it once. It was deep into the soul.
Seeing that the Emperor was watching with interest, the officials subconsciously glanced at Zhang Ronghua, then at the Crown Prince, and finally at Yan Lixue and Grand Secretary Cui. They thought mockingly,” Is this shooting myself in the foot?”
At the same time, he was very curious. What was written on it that His Majesty had been reading until now? It was like a cat scratching him. It was especially uncomfortable and he wanted to see what was going on.

An hour later.
After Emperor Xia finished reading it, he put down the Celestial Thearch’s biography and stroked his beard, a satisfied expression on his face. He had always kept his emotions to himself, and a rare smile appeared on his face as he said with certainty,””My dear minister, you’ve put in a lot of effort!” The simple word “beloved minister” had already said everything.
“As a subject, this is what I should do.””
After a pause, he continued. This time, he was the host.
“Yan Shaoqing understands me very well. He knows that I don’t have enough people on my side, so he took the initiative to bring this up..”
