The officials could not believe what they were seeing. Their first thought was that they should join forces. However, they did not understand that even though the Violet Angel had great power, he was not worthy of their attention. It was the same for Jiang Tian, the leader of Scarlet Heaven Hall!
No matter how high his cultivation was, he would still be suppressed in the imperial court.
Just like Jiu Xuanji from before, he couldn’t get any benefits and took the blame for bad things every time. He was scolded badly, but he had to endure it and didn’t even dare to say a single harsh word.
It was different now.
Wei Xuecheng, Zeng Runyu, and Zhang Ronghua were from three different factions, but they were working for the same person. It was worth pondering! If he didn’t get to the bottom of this matter, he wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep well. He secretly decided that after the court session ended, he would investigate this matter no matter what.
What happened next was obvious.
Chen Youcai, Wu Jinxiu, Ding Yi, Lu Junxiu, Huang Zhongshi, Zhao Yi, and Tang Bo all stood up and echoed. The former was the prefect of Shangjing, while the latter was the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice. They were high-ranking and powerful people. If they hid their feet, the capital would tremble. Although they did not know why Zhang Ronghua was speaking up for him, at this time, it was over. There was no need to say too much. After the matter was over, the rest of the people were small fries, but there were enough of them. They waved their flags and shouted, Increase your reputation.
Everyone’s gaze fell on Pei Caicai. With a straight face, he stood out from the ranks and bowed.
When his subordinates saw him step out, they all stepped out to agree.
Four factions, two Pavilion Elders, and a Minister of Rites. The combined power was too strong.
Grand Secretary Cui, He Wenxuan, and the other princes were shocked for the first time. Zhang Ronghua had only been in the government for a short time, but he had already developed to such a level. If he continued to develop, wouldn’t the court become a one-man court? In addition to the two chess pieces that had infiltrated the army, his heart was heavy. Out of consideration for his own interests and what might happen in the future, he could not sit still and wait for death.
Especially the First Prince, who was expressionless and aggrieved. He could burn the sky and boil the sea. Previously, he had asked Qian Wenli to suppress Zhang Ronghua, but he hadn’t completed his task. He had even sacrificed himself, and all his plans in the Scholar Hall had been wiped out. He had thought that with his status as Dylon, he would be able to suppress Zhang Ronghua, but he had lost two people. Now, according to the news from the
Ministry of Works, he could no longer suppress him. The Spirit Research Department had become a backyard, and he could even raise cattle and fish. He had shown his skills yesterday. Increasing the power of the Fire Spirit Oil, the horizontal knife, and the Poisonous Plague Bead by half, even Fu Kun began to fully support it. He took the initiative to make up for the quota of the five classes in the sundries hall and doubled the quota of the three classes in the research and development hall.
He didn’t know the exact reason, but one thing was certain. Once Zhang Ronghua improved more feys, armor, and other things, Fu Kun’s shortcomings in qualifications would be filled and he would surpass most people.
If Styron dared to make a move, Fu Kun would be the first to not let him off!
The Ministry of Works couldn’t stop him, so they fought in the court. This time, they had to beat down his arrogance. Otherwise, his reputation would only grow bigger and bigger.
He stood out from the queue and bowed.” Xu Xing’s ability is indeed not bad. The cases of Wangtian County and Ren Shangxuan have already proved his talent. He should stay in the Red Heaven Palace and capture the demons and ghosts hidden in the capital!”
The other Princes reacted quickly as well. This matter was no longer a simple transfer by Xu Xing. If it was a little more serious, it would implicate the Crown Prince. Being born in the Imperial Family and still a man, how could he not have any thoughts about that supreme position above? Even if they wanted to give up, when the crown prince sat on the dragon throne, would they have a good time? The best outcome was to be imprisoned. In a more serious case, they would be secretly eliminated. Anyone who was related to them would be killed one by one, even if it was a dog!
It wasn’t that they wanted to fight, but they had no choice!
They immediately stepped out, and none of them backed down. Although they said different things, the result was the same. They let Xu Xing continue to stay in the Scarlet Heaven Hall and did not agree to transfer to the Shangjing government
Imperial Court for the first time!
The people from both sides knew the seriousness of the matter and stood up. One side agreed, and the other side stopped. On the surface, the power of the princes was overwhelming. There were too many people. The Crown Prince was not around, and he did not use his secret power. The Empress’s people were watching from the sidelines. The situation was very unfavorable.
Grand Secretary Cui and the princes had different goals. They wanted to suppress the Crown Prince’s power, but he only wanted to suppress Zhang Ronghua. He could not boost his prestige. He stood out from the ranks and stopped Xu Xing from being transferred to Shangjing.
He Wenxuan and the others also stepped forward.
The situation was once again in a stalemate. Because of a small matter, countless factions were involved. They had different thoughts, but they all put their strength in one place.
An unexpected scene appeared.
The Minister of War, Xu Shidao, stood out from the ranks. His attitude was firm in supporting Xu Xing’s transfer. Some big shots in the military also stood out.
Fu Kun, the minister of the Ministry of Works, thought for a moment and stood out from the queue.

With so many people stepping out, the situation was one-sided, completely leaning towards Zhang Ronghua’s side.
A few minutes later.
No one stood out anymore. Those who stepped out to stop them felt their hearts turn cold, especially the princes. Their first confrontation had ended in failure! Although these people weren’t under the Crown Prince’s influence, and he wasn’t even there, still recuperating in the Eastern Palace, a defeat was a defeat.
He was on high alert and made up his mind.. He would not allow such a
situation to happen again!
