Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

Chapter 1027: Secret of the Royal Family

“The news is very tightly sealed. Even I can’t find out.”

“We’ll know soon.”

Ding Yi continued,” Du Chengming’s case has been closed. Many officials have been implicated. The Imperial Censorate has experienced an unprecedented earthquake. There are also some people from other departments. Today at noon, they will be dragged to the market for execution!”

He blinked.

“Are we going over?”

“Go,” said Zhang Ronghua.

As he spoke, he arrived at the Purple Extreme Hall and entered from the side door on the left. Zheng Fugui went to the ranks of the generals and stood at the back, belonging to the bottom of the list.

The two of them stood in the Imperial Censorate’s line. As Du Chengming and the others fell, the Imperial Attendant Supervisor was the leader. Behind them was Zhang Ronghua. Even the left and right Imperial Censors of the same level consciously stood behind.

After a while, the door closed.

The hall was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard. Everyone knew that today’s court session was the highlight. Many people were promoted and even reached the heavens in a single step.

His gaze subconsciously fell on Zhang Ronghua. Compared to him, the light of the people who were promoted today immediately dimmed. This person was the most dazzling.

The unique sound of footsteps rang out, and the officials were shocked. They secretly thought that His Majesty had arrived!

The Xia Emperor walked over with the Crown Prince and Wei Shang. He sat down on the dragon throne, and his majestic eyes swept across the crowd. He looked at Zhang Ronghua, who was standing in the Imperial Censorate’s line, and smiled inwardly, but he didn’t show it on his face.

Wei Shang took a step forward and took out an imperial edict. He opened it and looked down.” Xu Xing, step forward!” he said in a deep voice.

He came out of the queue.

“I’m here!” Xu Xing bowed. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Wei Shang read out the imperial edict.” You assisted Zhang Ronghua in solving Du Chengming’s case and uncovered the high-level spy of the Shang Dynasty. Your contributions are significant. You will be transferred to the Ministry of Revenue as a servant. You will be rewarded with two hundred taels of gold and a Holy Heavenly Dragon Horse!”

He had been promoted to the third rank, and his power was even greater. The Ministry of Revenue managed the money and grain of the Great Xia Dynasty, which was far from what the Shangjing government could compare to. He had made a huge profit this time.

Other than those who had already known the news, the eyes of the other officials were red. They were envious. How long had it been since this guy was transferred from the Red Heaven Hall to the Shangjing government? After following Zhang Ronghua, promotion was like riding a horse, rushing all the way!

He had just been promoted to a judge, and before he could even warm up, he was transferred to the Ministry of Revenue. Not to mention a promotion, even if it was a parallel transfer, it would be a promotion. If possible, he would want to replace him.

Next was Lu Zhantang. Due to the special nature of the Soul Palace, he was not qualified to attend the court. However, because he had solved Du Chengming’s treason case, he made an exception. He had just been promoted to Soul Emissary and could not be promoted any further. If he was promoted again, he would be promoted to Deputy Palace Master. No matter how great his contribution was, it was still not enough. His qualifications were shallow. Although he was not promoted, his reward was even more generous. He was given an additional carriage, a thousand taels of gold, a Xuanwu Square restaurant, and an entry into the Royal Palace’s arsenal!

Everyone thought to themselves, If their rewards are so generous, wouldn’t Zhang Ronghua’s be even greater?

To the disappointment of the officials, Wei Shang did not announce Zhang Ronghua, but the other members of the Imperial Censorate. Jin Yaoguang, Han Zhenggang, Huo Jingxiu, and the others were all rewarded, especially Jin Yaoguang, who was promoted to the position of the Left Censor of the Fourth Division.

Only Ding Yi’s reward was not announced. There were still others who were transferred to the Imperial Censorate, and there were also transfers from other departments. The series of changes was so dazzling that they almost couldn’t keep up.

After the transfer of these people was announced, Wei Shang continued. This time, it was a heavy bomb.” Shangjing’s Magistrate Chu Xuping will be transferred to the Imperial Censorate. He will be promoted to the Right Deputy Censor!”

A stone could cause a thousand ripples. This was a Rank-2. To reach this level, it was equivalent to standing at the peak of the officialdom. He was a big shot who could shake the capital with a stomp of his foot.

Some smart people thought a lot. Chu Xuping had just been transferred to the Shangjing government not long ago. Why was he promoted again? Even if Grand Secretary Wei was behind this, logically speaking, it was impossible.
