With the promotion of his official position, there were many things he had to worry about. It was very difficult to gather like before. Only now that Zheng Fugui was injured could they gather again.
First, they talked about business, then they chatted.
Two hours later.
Zhang Ronghua sent them off, greeted his cousin, and left Zheng Manor.
Zheng Yi had been waiting in the dark for a long time. When he saw the lord coming over, he quickly went up and bowed.” Greetings, lord!”
“Any news?” asked Zhang Ronghua.
Zheng Yi quickly explained what had happened.
The surprise came too suddenly. He had not expected to catch a big fish. It was actually someone from the Ji family of the Shang Dynasty.
“Let’s go!” Zhang Ronghua shouted.
He brought him to Light’s stronghold.
After a while.
The two of them entered a remote courtyard. Zheng Yi stepped forward and opened the mechanism in the room, revealing the passage to the secret chamber. After going down, they appeared in a hall. A Qi Concealing Array was set up to seal the place to prevent the soul masters from checking.
On the wall.
Ji Xunfeng’s cultivation had been crippled. His hair was disheveled, his clothes were torn, and his blood was blurry. He hung in the shape of a Chinese character, and his hands and feet were shackled by iron handcuffs, unable to move at all.
Looking at the people who came in, except for Old Man Samsara, the rest of them were all wearing night clothes. Their faces were covered, revealing their eyes to hide their identities. They were led by one person.
” Master!” Seeing that he had arrived, the person who grabbed him revealed a respectful expression and cupped his fists.” Greetings, Master!”
” Good job,” Zhang Ronghua praised as he patted Elder Samsara’s shoulder.
“This is my duty.”
He looked at Ji Xunfeng.
“Where are the others?” asked Zhang Ronghua.
“In the room next door,” Zheng Yi replied.
” General of the Flying Cavalry of the Shang Dynasty,” Zhang Ronghua said.” His official position is at the third rank. He’s the head of the fourth branch of the Ji family. Any one of them is a huge figure in the Shang Dynasty.”
” Who are you?” Ji Xunfeng’s voice was hoarse as he endured the intense pain in his body.
“Time Holy Man!”
Ji Xunfeng frowned. He tried his best to search for this person in his memory. After a while, he could not find any clues. He shook his head.” I’ve never heard of him.”
He said again.
“Why did you capture us?”
” It’s always nice to talk to smart people,” Zhang Ronghua said.” Tell me all the strongholds that the Shang Dynasty has hidden in the capital, including how many people have infiltrated this time and their identities.”
“You are from the Imperial Court!”
Pa! Pa!
Zhang Ronghua’s eyes turned cold. He pulled out two big pockets and left two bloody palm prints on his face.” Have you seen the reality?”
“That’s it?” Ji Xunfeng’s face was stern and his heart was filled with provocation. Come again if you have the ability.”
“I’ll leave it to you, take good care of them!” Zhang Ronghua said.
“Yes!” Zheng Yi accepted the order.
He turned around and left.
After a while, Zhang Ronghua asked about the latest developments in Guangming. Seeing that everything was going according to plan, Zhang Ronghua nodded in satisfaction. He then asked them to investigate the Bi Fangjie and report back immediately. Only then did he leave.
Yang Hongling had helped so much and was already done with her work. It was reasonable for him to go over and thank her.
He thought of what she had said when they parted in the morning, to bring a piece of candied haws.
It was already so late.
There wasn’t a single person on the street. Where could he get one?
Unable to stop him, he changed out of his night-traveling clothes and put on a black brocade robe. He rushed to the Platinum Courtyard. There were hawthorns there, so he made a set and brought it with him.
At this point.
The banquet had just ended when he met his father at the door, who was about to leave.
“Dad, are you treating me again?” Zhang Ronghua guessed.
Zhang Qin stepped forward and stretched out his palm to tidy up his collar.” Good son!” he praised.
He pointed inside.
“Chat?”
“Alright.” Zhang Ronghua agreed.
The carriage stopped, and Zhang Feng and the others stood guard outside.
He entered the Platinum Courtyard and stopped in a room in the backyard.
He took out some spirit liquid and brewed a pot of red lotus grape tea. He took the teapot and poured two cups. Zhang Ronghua handed over a cup and introduced it with a smile.” This is a gift from Assistant Minister Su of the Ministry of Official Personnel. Although it’s an ordinary tea, it’s top-grade. Every time I drink it, I feel different.”
Zhang Qin took a whiff. The fragrance of the tea was strong. Although it couldn’t compare to the Eastern Sea Ten Thousand Spirit Tea, it was stronger than ordinary spiritual tea. He held the teacup and pinched the lid twice. After taking a sip, he praised,” Good tea.”
He put down his teacup and teased her.
“You have so many good things on you.”
“I dare not refuse the elder’s gift.” Zhang Ronghua shrugged.
“Sly.”
He stopped smiling.
“Have you caught the people from the Shang Dynasty?” Zhang Qin asked seriously.
” Yes.” Zhang Ronghua nodded.” My people will catch him and interrogate him in secret. Just let him rot in his heart.”
Zhang Qin didn’t ask any more questions. His son had grown up and had his own ideas. No matter what he did, he would fully support him as a father.
A mocking expression appeared on his face.
“Father is now on the same level as you.”
” Master Zhang!” Zhang Ronghua understood instantly. He stood up from his chair and bowed.” Greetings, Lord Zhang!”
Zhang Qin stroked his beard, feeling satisfied from the bottom of his heart.
They chatted for a while.
After he left, Zhang Ronghua went into the kitchen and took some hawthorn to make candied haws. He was about to leave when he sensed that Wan Chonglou, who was cultivating in a room upstairs, spat out a mouthful of blood. His body went weak and he fell on the bed.
He frowned. What was going on?
Last time, he had suppressed his injuries. As long as he did not make a move, it would not erupt for a short period of time. Why did it erupt again?
There was only one explanation.
After pondering for a moment, he realized that this person was a good person. He could absorb light. He sent a voice transmission to Wan Chonglou.” If you want to heal your injuries, go to the Hongluan Bridge and wait for me!”
He turned around and left.
In the room.
Feeling the true essence in his body, he was like a wild horse that was about to lose control. An intense pain came. Even if his will was very firm, he could not help but groan. At this moment, a mysterious voice sounded in his ear. Wan Chonglou was stunned. He patiently listened to it, and his face revealed joy. He calmed down and looked in the direction of Hongluan Bridge, thinking quickly.
