Chapter 1029: Supreme Glory (2)
The main event was about to begin, and everyone was listening attentively.
He only stared at the important positions and forgot that the three positions of Shangjing Prefecture Magistrate, Judge, and Tuiguan were still vacant.
This time, Wei Shang announced two appointments in a row.” Ding Yi will be promoted by one rank and will be transferred to Shangjing Prefecture as a pushing officer. Tie Changlin will be promoted by one rank and will be transferred to Shangjing Prefecture as a judge.”
The former was Zhang Ronghua’s loyal confidant. He had followed him from the Scholar Hall. The two of them were in cahoots. Wherever Zhang Ronghua went, Ding Yi would follow.
From this point of view, Zhang Ronghua should be transferred to Shangjing Prefecture. Although it was very heavy, it was still within the scope of tolerance.
Tie Changlin was the former Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He had already retired and had been walking on thin ice in the officialdom. He was afraid of offending someone and being taken down. Logically speaking, without the support of a faction, how could he have been promoted if he had worked in his current position until he retired or was frozen? He couldn’t figure it out! It was very puzzling.
The officials were relieved. Although Zhang Ronghua had improved, he was still a magistrate of Shangjing. Compared to the merits he had made, his mood suddenly became better, especially the forces of the enemy and the princes. They felt that the sun was very warm today. If it was not for the inappropriate occasion, they would have jumped up and danced to celebrate.
Those who knew the inside story had heavy hearts. Because of Zhang Ronghua, this confrontation had been delayed until now. If not, the day after Du Chengming was taken down, the various factions had almost reached an exchange.
The memorial that the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs had submitted to the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was rejected by the latter. Zhang Ronghua’s position remained unchanged, but the other people had been transferred. Seeing that his appointment was still the same, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was furious. They immediately took action and removed Zhang Ronghua’s position before submitting it to the Emperor. This time, it was the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets’s turn to suffer.
Every time a memorial was handed over, it would be sent back.
Those who could enter the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets were the best of the best. They knew that the Ministry of Official Personnel represented the will of the Emperor. Helpless, the five Pavilion Elders discussed urgently and were forced to compromise after a long discussion.
After agreeing to the transfer with Zhang Ronghua as the foundation, he called back to the Ministry of Personnel Affairs and asked them to come up with a suitable constitution. The various factions fought and compromised again, resulting in the current scene.
“Zhang Ronghua, step forward!” Wei Shang said.
“Your subject is here!” Zhang Ronghua walked out of the queue and bowed respectfully.
The officials had guessed his transfer, but they didn’t panic and just looked at him from the corner of their eyes.
Wei Shang said in a deep voice,” During your time in the Fourth Division, you have made countless contributions. You have returned the Imperial Censorate to its rightful place. You have also caught Du Chengming and reduced the danger to the minimum. You have also received a reward for your previous contribution. You have been promoted to the position of governor of Shangjing. You are also in charge of training the Great Xia army and have made even more contributions for the country and the people!”
Whoosh!
All the officials were dumbfounded. What did they just hear? Zhang Ronghua was actually the governor of Shangjing and the commander of the hussars? He was both a civil official and a military general, and they were both of the third rank!
The combination of the two, wasn’t his power too great?
It was more than just reaching the heavens in one step. It was simply a supreme honor!
Everything that he didn’t understand was now clear. Why did His Majesty wait until now to give Li Yuliang and the others their official positions? No wonder so many factions were involved in this appointment.
If there were only one or two Secondary Rank-2 positions, Zhang Ronghua would not be able to hold two positions at the same time. Now was the perfect time!
No wonder the five Pavilion Elders of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had been silent since the beginning of the court session. It was as if they had been suffocating and their expressions were extremely ugly. So that was why.
You want to retort now? It had already been decided that the various factions would compromise. If anyone dared to jump out and explode, Zhang Ronghua would not even need to do anything. These factions would join forces to kill him!
Those who broke the rules would have a tragic ending.
In the end, Zhang Ronghua would still give his orders as usual.
Thinking of his age and the meritorious positions of Zhang Qin and Zheng Rou, they were so envious that they wanted to replace him.
Zhang Ronghua did not expect the reward to be so heavy!
Thinking of the old man’s meaningful smile last night, he understood everything.
“I will do my best to make a greater contribution to the country and the people!”
He returned to his original position.
After this.
The next day at court, the formation would be changed.
After the reward, the court session ended.
After leaving the Purple Extreme Hall, he looked at the sky. It was exceptionally clear. The sunlight shone on his body, making him feel warm. He was happy and took another big step forward. One more step would be from Rank-2, and he was not far from entering the Heaven Secret Pavilion.
He let Ding Yi go to the Ministry of Personnel Affairs to handle the transfer procedures first, and he went to the Ministry of Rites. There were still some things that he had to clarify.
At this point.
Pei Caihua seemed to know that he would come over and waited for him after making tea.
After a round of conversation.
After learning about the course of this confrontation from Uncle Pei, he left with a heavy heart. For his sake, the Emperor had really put in a lot of effort. After thinking for a while, he went to the royal study again. Whether he was willing or not, he had the symbol of Emperor Xia on him. He had to make his stand clear and support him unwaveringly.
The most taboo thing in officialdom was to sit on the fence, especially in a high position like him.
By the time he left, it was already two hours later.
He made another trip to the Imperial Censorate and handed over some matters. Then, he went to the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War to handle the transfer procedures. He received three sets of official uniforms, one for civil officials and two for generals.
The pattern of the civil servant’s official uniform did not change. It was still golden-red, but there was a little more gold.
The military uniform was a set of ordinary clothes worn in court. It looked the same, but the ” beast ” on the chest had changed. It was no longer ” Blue Phoenix ” but ” White Tiger “. The other set was a battle armor called ” Brave and Loyal Battle Armor “. It was mainly gold and purple. It was engraved with the pattern of mountains and rivers. It also had a Heaven-cleaving Sword and a waist token.
