Fourth Division.
There was a side hall in the corner. The environment was very bad. It was close to the latrine, and the stench was overwhelming. It was very clean, and there were no fallen leaves or dust on the ground. As the breeze blew, the smell would be even stronger.
There was only one room in the hall. There was no layout to speak of. The ceiling was yellow, and the walls had traces of time, as if it had been left behind by accumulated rain. The wall was peeling, and in some places, a large portion had fallen off. The furnishings were simple, with only a bookshelf, a table, and a chair. It was extremely dilapidated.
Yang Yilai sat on the chair, motionless. His gaze was sluggish, like a walking corpse that had lost its soul. He maintained this position for a long time.
Just a moment ago, Pang Youshan came to threaten him again.
If she dared to disobey or play tricks, she would torture He Feifei even more, making her wish she was dead, living in despair and struggle every day.
She had endured this kind of life for six years. After six years, she did not know how she had endured it. From the anger and unwillingness at the beginning to the numbness now, the only thing that supported her was that she was alive!
Their relationship was much deeper than Han Zhenggang had described. Apart from being sworn friends, they had also studied at He Jia’s house for three years.
Both of them came from Changping County. One was in the south of the city, and the other was in the north of the city. They were born into poor families and lived a very hard life! However, he was more unfortunate. His family had left one after another. He was young and did not have the ability to rely on himself. His only two uncles did not help him. Instead, they hit him when he was down. They wanted to occupy the six mu of fertile land left by his parents. At that time, they were young and could not stop them. As the fertile land was taken away, the only small courtyard was also taken away. They were chased out like dogs.
He begged for three days. Occasionally, one or two kind-hearted people would give him a white steamed bun. Most people would ignore them and be more ruthless. They would serve him with their fists and feet. He was about to starve to death. By coincidence, he fainted at the door of the He family’s house. His father saved him and found out about his recent situation. He helped him find a job in a restaurant and then stayed at their house to barely make ends meet.
He was not content with the status quo. He had the ambition of a swan hidden in his heart. He wanted to stand out. He wanted to eat big fish and meat, wear high-quality brocade clothes, become a high official, control his own destiny, and study hard.
He worked during the day, and when he returned home at night, he relied on the money he earned to light an oil lamp. However, the books were very expensive and he could not afford them even if he wanted to. He shamelessly asked He Jia to borrow them. Both father and son were good people, and He Jia happily agreed to have another reading partner.
In the beginning, Father He thought that he was joking. He didn’t expect him to persist for three months. He worked hard, worked hard, didn’t waste any time, and tried his best to enrich himself. If he didn’t understand, he would ask He Jia.
Three days to consider.
Father He and his wife made a decision. With this child’s perseverance, he would definitely be successful in the future. Since that was the case, they would help him quit his job in the restaurant and concentrate on his studies. In the blink of an eye, three years had passed until the Academy Examination began.
After three years of hard work, coupled with the foundation they had built since they were young, they were able to amaze the world with a single feat. They became a scholar together with He Jia. Then, the two of them worked even harder, studying and studying hard to enrich themselves. They supported each other until they reached high school.
As his horizons increased and his knowledge increased, the past grudges were no longer that important. He only sent people back to take back the fertile land and the old house and let the two uncles go.
However, he had always remembered the He family’s kindness.
Soon after, the two of them were assigned to the Imperial Censorate by the imperial court. They started from the bottom and supported each other. Without any background, they relied on their own hard work to make a name for themselves.
He did not expect that his good friend and benefactor of many years would be imprisoned overnight. After hearing the news, he started to investigate. Before he could take action, the other party had already taken action and suspended him for an insignificant matter…ln the end, they were at their wit’s end. Seeing that he was like a stinking stone with nowhere to lay a hand on, they could only rub him to the end and become like this.
The court session ended today.
The news from the imperial court seemed to show the hope of overturning the verdict. Although he had been like a walking corpse all these years, he was just doing it for them to see. He clearly understood that with the protection of his official position, the other party would not dare to break the rules. Otherwise, it would attract the investigation of the True Dragon Palace and other departments. If these guys entered, the rules of the game would change and things would be out of control. He was afraid that he would use He Feifei to control it.
Secretly watching the court, he would be the first to know if there was any movement. He knew that Zhang Ronghua was extraordinary. Although he had been from the Imperial Army, he had relied on his powerful abilities to carve out a path and rise up the ranks. It was rare for him to be promoted so quickly.
This thought only lasted for a few breaths before disappearing.
So what if the case was overturned? He Feifei was the only one left in the He family. The others either died of illness or starved to death on the way to exile. If Pang Youshan killed her before she lost her power, wouldn’t there be no descendants? He could only give up!
Clang clang..
Footsteps sounded from outside. There seemed to be two of them. One of them was vigorous and powerful, and the way they walked was very orderly. The other one was slightly chaotic, and the strength was different, like a rain.
Outside the palace door.
The two of them stopped in their tracks.
” This is the place?” Zhang Ronghua was expressionless. In his silence, he exuded a powerful official aura.
“Yes, sir!” Han Zhenggang replied while enduring the strong stench.
He secretly paid attention to Daren’s face. Seeing that he was unmoved, he admired him in his heart. No wonder he had such a high position at such a young age. It was not without reason.
He had good eyesight.
Without waiting for Zhang Ronghua to speak, he took the initiative to push open the palace door and make way for him. He waited for him to enter before following him and closing the door..
