No matter who raided a house, there was an unspoken rule that the person who raided the house could take a little. This formed a tacit understanding in the Great Xia officialdom. Otherwise, they would not rush to do such an offensive thing as looting the house.
Sun family mansion.
“How do we distribute them, Sir?” Cao Xing asked. “Same old rules,” said Zhang Ronghua.
He was referring to one-tenth.
According to the calculation of twelve million taels of silver, one-tenth of it would be one million and two hundred thousand taels of silver. It was a bit much, but with so many people, the two battalions of the Golden Scale Mysterious Heavenly Army would have two hundred people, so it was not much.
Thinking about it, he felt that it was too little.
Zhang Ronghua changed his words.” Keep the change and divide it according to the size of the official position. Take another 10,000 taels. I will give it to He Feifei later. Consider it to make up for the grievances she has suffered over the years.”
“This subordinate understands!”
It took them some time to divide the money. Although they were all expressionless, they were smiling. They looked energetic and motivated. Even their gazes at Zhang Ronghua and their parents became heated.
“Let’s go!”
Zhang Ronghua mounted his Divine Heavenly Dragon Horse and led the prisoners towards the market.
When the surrounding commoners saw such a huge formation, they were shocked. They all made way for them. When the prison carriage passed by, their curiosity flared up and they followed.
When they arrived at the market, the county magistrate of the eastern city received the news and rushed over with the chief registrar and county lieutenant, as well as dozens of constables.
“Greetings, Your Excellency!” The three county magistrates bowed.
Zhang Ronghua nodded and made the arrangements.” Seal this place and pull out the cordon. Don’t let the civilians get close.”
“Yes, sir!” The county magistrate replied.
He ordered the constables to set up defenses at the outer perimeter while the Golden Scale Mysterious Heavenly Army set up defenses at the inner perimeter. With the latter’s strength, no one dared to be ignorant.
The three of them were in awe and envy. He was already a third-grade official at such a young age. On his first day in office, he had already taken down such a person!
Zhang Ronghua sat on the main seat, while the county magistrate and the others stood beside him. Before the execution, they had to describe their crimes. Cao Xing went forward and circulated his internal energy to explain in detail how they had stolen the Flame Thunder Bead, a weapon of the country.
The surrounding commoners were furious!
Looking at these people, his eyes spewed fire as he pointed at them and cursed. He wished he could swallow their flesh and blood. Rotten eggs, rotten vegetables, and so on were thrown at them with all their might.
No one charged at the cordon, they all knew what to do. The sky was already dark, and the sunset was about to set.
“Executed!” Zhang Ronghua ordered.
He grabbed a board and threw it out.
“Cut!” Cao Xing shouted with a cold face.
The executioner was already prepared. He held a bowl and spat a mouthful of wine into his mouth. Then, he spat it onto the bright blade. He held the blade with both hands and slashed down fiercely. After a batch, another batch would be replaced.
Very quickly.
Sun Jin and Pang Youhao’s three clans were all beheaded! Heads and corpses were everywhere on the execution platform. The people cheered and the drummers praised.
“I’ll leave this place to you,” Zhang Ronghua stood up from his chair and looked at the magistrate.
“Yes, sir!”
He left with his men and stopped when he passed by Changping’s carriage.
He Feifei had already changed into a long green dress and dressed up simply, but the scar on her face was still there. Seeing this scene with her own eyes, she cried softly. The revenge of the He family had finally been taken. Her tears wet her face and she cried like a tearful person.
” The case is over,” Zhang Ronghua said.” There will be news tomorrow. The injustice will be redressed and the mansion will be returned.”
He Feifei was grateful and pretended to kneel down to thank him.
Zhang Ronghua reached out his hand to stop her from kneeling. He said seriously,” There’s no need to do this. This is what I should do.”
He took out ten thousand silver and handed it over.
“The imperial court will compensate the He family for their losses! Don’t refuse. In the future, living in the capital won’t work without money.”
He forcefully stuffed the silver notes into her hands and left with Cao Hang and the others.
“Thank you, Your Excellency!” He Feifei shouted.
He looked at the setting sun.
Zhang Ronghua was upset. He was not a sentimental person and had strong self-control. However, he was still moved by this scene.
She’s lucky enough to have met you, ” Cao Xing said.” Otherwise, she would have died in Pang Youshan’s hands, let alone overturn the case!”
“Perhaps!”
“How did it go?” Zhang Ronghua asked.
” We’ve already established our footing. The people we brought this time are all trusted aides and are completely trustworthy. It’ll take some time before we can control Zuo Bei.”
Zhang Ronghua instructed,”Do it with all your heart! I’d rather be slow than make any mistakes. There’s no hurry for the rest. Once your qualifications are stable, I’ll think of a way to transfer you to the Sky Bearing Prestige!”
“Thank you, sir!”
As they spoke, they arrived at the Vermillion Bird Sect.
The two of them parted ways. Cao Xing led his men to continue patrolling while Zhang Ronghua walked towards the royal study to report to Emperor Xia.
When he came out again.
The sky was already dark.
After exiting the Vermilion Bird Sect, Ding Yi sat on the Changping carriage aimlessly. When he saw him coming over, he hurriedly jumped down.” Brother!”
“How long have you been waiting?” Zhang Ronghua asked with a smile.
“I waited until now.” “We’ll talk in the car.”
“Yes.” Ding Yi agreed.
The two of them got into the carriage and sat on the soft couch.
“Has the appointment been made?” asked Zhang Ronghua.
“He has been transferred to the Imperial Censorate as the Left Qian Imperial
Censor, Rank Four.”
“Where are the others?”
” They’re here too. According to what we discussed previously, we’ll implement them one by one.”
“Brother, do you want to get together?” asked Ding Yi.
“Not now!” Zhang Ronghua shook his head. The various factions will keep an eye on them. When the time is right, we will gather together.”
“Have you found the formula for the Flamespark Pearl?”
“No! Butler Lu seems to have disappeared into thin air. There’s no news of him at all. He’s either hiding somewhere or he was killed. It happened so suddenly, so it should be the former. The possibility of the latter is not high..”
