However, this temptation was too great. If the princes could think of it, could he not think of it? If Zhang Ronghua really became the Right General of Sky Bearing, he would be able to use this opportunity to tear open a corner of the army and infiltrate his own forces. Then, he would slowly develop and his position would be as stable as Mount Tai! But why did Father do this? Did he not know the consequences? Impossible!
With his father’s power, he could see through the essence of the matter at a glance. It was impossible for him not to know. Could it be that his father’s body had a problem and was paving the way for him in advance? Or was he testing him?
If it was the former, he would be able to wake up laughing even in his dreams! What if it was the latter? Thinking of this, the Crown Prince was so scared that cold sweat flowed out. He suppressed the strangeness in his heart and continued to listen. No matter what, anyone could step forward for this matter, but he could not!
Zhang Ronghua frowned and analyzed the situation. The Ministry of Personnel was the foundation of Emperor Xia, and the army was also in his hands. He had been transferred out of the military, and now he had to be transferred back to pave the way for the Crown Prince? Or was it a test? He wanted to use this opportunity to test the attitude of all the civil and military officials?
He quickly swept his gaze over the people who had jumped out. In the beginning, only the princes ‘people had jumped out. Now, some of the other factions had also jumped out. There were only about half of the people who stood still in the queue. Even some neutral factions had also jumped out for unknown reasons.
Combining his guesses and the information he had, Emperor Xia was probably testing the Crown Prince, the civil and military officials, and perhaps for other purposes. However, the information was limited and it was difficult to guess. He wanted to see the reaction of the officials in the court.
If he really wanted to transfer him into the army, what about his cultivation method? Giving up just like that? From his performance in the Nirvana Supreme Life Technique, the opportunity to reward him with the True Dragon Token, and the trip to the Hall of Ten Thousand Books, he would definitely not give up on the follow-up cultivation technique. He would definitely think of ways to create an even more powerful cultivation technique to increase his lifespan.
After figuring out Emperor Xia’s intentions, their respect for him increased. With a single move, he had toyed with all the officials in his hands. This power scheme was extremely terrifying.
No matter how they jumped, it had nothing to do with him.
After waiting for a while, seeing that no one had stepped out, the Xia Emperor looked at the five Pavilion Elders. The three dukes had skipped work again, and it was so open and aboveboard that no one dared to jump out and say anything. He asked, “What about you guys?
Whether it was Zeng Runyu, Grand Secretary Cui, or the other three Grand Elders, they were all old foxes. They were experienced and could see things from afar. If they didn’t know what was going on, they shouldn’t casually make a move and kick the ball to Emperor Xia.
“Everything is up to His Majesty!”
The Xia Emperor’s majestic voice rang out once more.”All of you are right. Zhang Ronghua is knowledgeable and talented. It is not appropriate to transfer him to the army.”
The First Prince and the other officials were half relieved.
“Merits must be rewarded, and faults must be punished! Zhang Ronghua has made great contributions in writing the biography of the Heavenly Emperor. Ordinary contributions cannot show how much I value talents. Do you have any suggestions?”
Everyone was stunned. They looked at each other. What a headache! It was very difficult to do! I don’t know how to do it
If it were him, he would be so happy that he would jump around on the spot. However, this was Zhang Ronghua. He didn’t want him to be promoted, but now he couldn’t suppress it. It was like eating a fly. It was extremely uncomfortable.
He lowered his head and did not speak, acting like a coward.
The Minister of Official Personnel Affairs took a step forward and stepped out of the line. As he moved, everyone’s attention was immediately attracted. At this time, some smart people had already realized that they had been fooled.
The appointment of Zhang Ronghua had probably been arranged by the Emperor long ago. The current scene was like fishing. They were the stupid fat fish!
At the thought of this, the princes sucked in a breath of cold air and broke out in cold sweat. They made up their minds that no matter what the Minister of Official Personnel Affairs said later, they would nod in agreement, provided that they did not go too far.
The Minister of Personnel Affairs said in a deep voice,” A few days ago, the entire family of the Ministry of Works ‘doctor, Wu Yangjian, was wiped out. He was also killed by a beast. Now that his position is vacant, I propose that Zhang Ronghua take over his position and be promoted to the Ministry of Works’ doctor. He will be in charge of Wu Yangjian’s work! ‘”‘
The Ministry of Works was a fourth-rank official, a department with real power!
The department that Wu Yangjian was in charge of was even more important. It involved a lot of professional knowledge, and ordinary people couldn’t handle it. Although Zhang Ronghua took over his position, it was very difficult to make a name for himself in the Ministry of Works! This had nothing to do with knowledge. It involved refining, research, invention, innovation, and so on. Without a solid foundation, it would be difficult to move forward. Compared to the Right General of the Sky Bearing Empire, it was within the acceptable range.
If he refused again, His Majesty would not agree.
After considering the pros and cons, they decided to choose the lesser of the two evils. No one jumped out to stop them, and the First Prince and the others did the same. They immediately agreed with Zhang Ronghua’s appointment.
The only change was that Emperor Xia had spoken and transferred Ding Yi over to be the chief clerk of the Ministry of Works. He was now Zhang Ronghua’s deputy, a rank four official. In addition, there was also a new chief in the Hall of Scholars, who would manage it together with Lu Junxiu.
The series of changes dazzled the eyes of the people.
Zhang Ronghua stepped out to thank them when his reward was set. The rest of the time, he watched them perform.
The court session ended.
He left the Purple Extreme Hall and walked towards the Scholar Hall. He did not go to the Ministry of Rites to visit Pei Caihua. With the promotion of his official position, he would be transferred out of the Scholar Hall. He could no longer be as casual as before, or he would be criticized..
