Chapter 779: The Old Master Suppresses the Three Officials

Translator: 549690339

Zhang Ronghua was surprised. This was the first time he had seen the three chancellors attend court. He thought to himself, Is it because of me?

He didn’t understand! To others, the transfer between Rank-4 and Rank-3 was extremely important. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a leap to the sky, but in the eyes of the three dukes, it was just a trivial matter that could not attract attention.

Could it be that the princes had made a move and invited the three dukes? To prevent the Xia Emperor from making his own decisions? It wasn’t contempt, but they weren’t enough!

At this level, he was detached from all things. How could he be moved by external things?

Unless they were attracted by something heaven-defying, they rarely made a move.

Let’s not talk about this.

There was a 50% chance that he would be coming for him if he appeared in the

Imperial Court at this time. Putting aside the Grand Preceptor and the Grand Guardian, what about the Grand Tutor? The Empress was afraid that the Crown

Prince’s power was too great and that she would not be able to rope him in, so she used him to suppress her. Suppress her?

If it was, then the Grand Tutor had already joined forces with the Empress.

The situation had become even more complicated. It was absolutely impossible for him to compromise!

They were clearly just three old men, and they looked like they were in their twilight years. Just like the grandpa next door, they brought a lot of pressure.

The people close to Zhang Ronghua felt heavy. Some of them clenched their fists tightly under their sleeves. They were aggrieved, unwilling, and furious, but there was nothing they could do.

The three dukes did not need to speak to explain everything.

Chen Youcai, Wu Jinxiu, Lu Junxiu, Jin Yaoguang, Huang Zhongshi, and the others seemed to pass through the crowd and look at Zhang Ronghua. Should they do it or not?

Once they did it, regardless of whether they succeeded or failed, they might be frozen or sent away. If they cowered, their conscience would not be able to pass. They had received so many favors and had never returned anything. When the storm came, they would hide behind like a turtle. It was not shameful to lose to the three dukes, and the officials would not laugh at them, but they could not pass the barrier in their hearts. From now on, they would cut off all ties and go their separate ways. You would walk your own path, and I would cross my own wooden bridge. There would be no connection, and it would involve a struggle for benefits. They would even turn against each other.

Everyone was making a decision in their hearts. They didn’t have much time left. They had to make a decision before the Xia Emperor arrived.

Only Ding Yi had a dark expression. Although it was ugly, he stood firmly on Zhang Ronghua’s side.

The princes and the neutral parties were all feeling smug. This time, they would definitely win!

Grand Secretary Cui’s heart was heavy. He wished he could get rid of Zhang Ronghua, but he felt like the fox was grieving for the rabbit’s death. The three officials had crossed the line! His old eyes seemed to be pondering.

Elder Zeng and Elder Wei’s faces were frighteningly cold, and they seemed to be making a decision as well.

Only Pei Cai remained calm and unaffected, as if he did not know that the three dukes had arrived. He stood calmly in front of the Ministry of Rites.

Yiya!

Eunuch Xiao walked in with two eunuchs and closed the door. His voice was very soft, and it was usually undetectable, but it was especially clear today.

The sound of vigorous and heavy footsteps rang out. The Xia Emperor walked like a dragon, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. His face was cold, and his gaze was oppressive. He carried a huge aura as he walked over from behind. The Crown Prince and Wei Shang followed closely behind, as well as two eunuchs.

Sitting on the dragon throne, a powerful pressure and the aura of an emperor mixed together and suppressed it domineeringly. No one dared to look directly at him. Even the three dukes had to look away.

He looked around and retracted his gaze.

Wei Shang stepped forward and glanced at the three dukes from the corner of his eyes. He sighed in his heart. The Emperor had predicted everything like a god. He had taken everything into consideration. He said in a deep voice,” If there’s anything, report. If there’s nothing, withdraw!”

Pei Caihua was waiting for a moment. He stepped forward and bowed.” I have something to report!”

“Speak!” The Xia Emperor said, his words as precious as gold.

Pei Caicai said,” Doctor Zhang of the Ministry of Works ‘Spirit Research Division has made great contributions during this period of time. He has developed the Flame Thunder Pearl and 197 other items, including armor, a horizontal saber, and the Poison Plague Pearl. The former has been equipped at the border. In the battle of Wangtian County, he reversed the situation and killed tens of thousands of enemy troops. He killed the Shang Dynasty army and made them tremble in fear! In a short period of time, although the latter was not produced In batcnes, nor was It widely used In tne army, tne tirst Datcn of armors, horizontal sabers, crossbows, etc. have already arrived at Wangtian County. General Shen led the Moxia Vanguard Army to launch a lightning attack and plundered Yuguang County. They captured three counties including Shanglin County and plundered dozens of important towns. The results were great!”

He paused for a moment, changed his tone, and continued.

“Although you are young, you are talented and capable. Our Great Xia Dynasty has always valued talent and ability, not age. Everyone here has risen through their own abilities. None of you are mediocre. I propose to make an exception and promote you to the position of Director of the Ministry of War, starting from the third rank!”

The Head Office was a job with all six departments. It had a lot of power and could coordinate the departments and assist them in handling official matters. The Supervisor was in charge of logistics and was above the Head Office’s doctor. Once he was transferred, he could interfere with military affairs. He could also interfere with the five divisions of city defense. There were four camps near the capital.

The Golden Scale Mysterious Heavenly Army and the Human Emperor Guards were not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War. The two departments were nominally under the Ministry of War, but in reality, there were people in charge of salaries, weapons, training, cultivation resources, and so on.

Although he was a Secondary Rank Three, his authority far exceeded that of an ordinary Primary Rank Three. He was even inferior to some Secondary Rank Two officials.

The officials did not expect Pei Caicai to be so stubborn. The three dukes were in court today and clearly wanted to suppress Zhang Ronghua.. Under their circumstances, he still dared to use a big move and threw a king bomb as soon as he came!
