“It’s hard for an upright official to manage family matters. Cousin sympathizes with your experience, but you’re an outsider after all, so it’s not good to get involved.”

She wanted to hold back her laughter, but she really couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst out laughing.

Zheng Fugui was even sadder. His heart was hurt to such an extent, yet his cousin was still laughing at him. He pulled his face and followed behind listlessly.

They arrived at the Eastern Palace.

The two of them parted ways. Zheng Fugui led the Flood Dragon Guards to patrol while he went to the Hall of Proclamation and Harmony.

In the main hall.

“Greetings, Your Highness!” Zhang Ronghua cupped his fists and bowed.”

The Crown Prince was in a good mood today. With a smile, he put down his teacup and pointed at the chair beside him. “Sit.”

He didn’t immediately get down to business. Instead, he talked about his family matters. “How’s the business of the Green Cloud Inn?”

“Thanks to you, I heard that it’s very good. The occupation rate has reached more than 90%. The same goes for the restaurants.”

“Not bad! Although money was not omnipotent, it was not enough. Whether it was cultivation or doing things, it was indispensable. With it as support, your future path would be smoother.”

The Crown Prince asked again after changing the topic.

“Is Hong Ling done?”

This matter was not hidden. With his power, it was easy to investigate.

I’ve already obtained the Thousand -Year Fire Spirit,” Zhang Ronghua said.”

I’ve already mastered the Great Five Elements Heaven-Breaking Sword Formation. If I want to improve further, I’ll have to rely on time.””

“Yes.”

Clapping his hands, Shuang ‘er walked in with a tray and stopped in front of him. On the tray was an official robe, purple-red and slightly dark, and a purple hat.

The Crown Prince said,” The appointment document from the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs has already been issued. From now on, you are a scholar in the Scholar Hall. If others call you Scholar Zhang, your official rank will also be raised by one rank, five ranks.”

Zhang Ronghua got up from his chair and cupped his hands in gratitude. “Thank you for your promotion, Your Highness!”

The Crown Prince waved his hand, indicating for him to continue sitting.””You deserve all of this. With your abilities, staying in the Eastern Palace will limit your talent, and it will be difficult to promote you. It will be different in the Scholar’s Hall. After a period of time, it will be easier to find an opportunity to make use of your position. You will also have to continue to take on the duties of the Eastern Palace. If there is a need, I will send someone to inform you.”

“I understand!”

With the identity of the Scholar Hall, it wasn’t too much to call himself a “subject”.

(Note: Pay attention to how you address me in future conversations. I’ll listen to you.))

Zhang Ronghua took the clothes and entered the side hall.

Soon, he returned.

After changing into the official uniform of the Scholar Hall, his temperament changed. From the previous capable, stern, and serious, to the current refined, gentle, and dignified, he gave people the feeling of a scholar.

The Crown Prince sized it up and was even more satisfied. The smile on his face also became wider.”lt’s pretty good.”

Shuang ‘er served tea.

Zhang Ronghua took a sip of tea and put it down.

In the future, you’re alone, don’t worry, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone, you’re alone ”

“I understand!”

Zhang Ronghua was shocked. There was a hidden meaning in his words. Did he know that he had been slacking off during this period of time?

Thinking about it, it made sense!

With his power in the Eastern Palace, how could he not know? However, he did not point it out, nor did he mention it before. Now that he mentioned it, he was probably warning him that the Scholar’s Hall was not like the Eastern Palace and that he could not do as he pleased.

They chatted for a while.

The Crown Prince stood up from his chair, and Zhang Ronghua followed suit.”Let’s go! I’ll send you to your post.”

“Is it suitable?”

“I originally planned to let the people from the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs send you over, but on second thought, I was afraid that they wouldn’t be able to hold their ground and you would be wronged there, so I personally sent you over.”

Zhang Ronghua knew what this meant. If the Crown Prince sent his subordinate to the throne, the Imperial Censors in the Imperial Court would know about it. They would definitely give him a hard time. He knew, but he did not care. It was obvious how much he loved him.

He left the Eastern Palace.

Ma Ping ‘an led a group of Dragon Guards to escort him. Zhang Ronghua rode on a horse and walked side by side with him. The former lowered his voice and said, “I really envy you. You’ve only been a Flood Dragon Guard for more than three years, but you’ve already jumped out of the trap of a general. From then on, you’ve roamed the sea like a dragon and soared into the sky!”

“The Flood Dragon Guards aren’t bad either. If possible, I’d rather stay here than go to the Scholar Hall to scheme.”

Ma Ping ‘an rolled his eyes. His tone was a little sour, but he was not jealous.”One must know one’s limits. Compared to you, I’m not good at politics. Even if Your Highness gives me this chance, when I get there, I’ll be eaten by them until not even bones are left.”

As they spoke, they arrived at the Vermillion Bird Sect.

The two of them stopped talking in time.

After entering the Imperial Palace, he was just about to rush to the outer palace when Eunuch Xiao came up with two young eunuchs. The carriage stopped and he walked over. Outside the carriage, he bowed and said,”His Majesty has ordered you to go over now!”

The curtains were lifted, revealing the Crown Prince’s face.””What did Imperial Father say?

“His Majesty didn’t say!”

The crown prince frowned as he drew the curtains. He was just about to send his men to their posts when this happened. It seemed that someone was determined to make things difficult for him..
