Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

Chapter 986: Grand Secretary Cui’s Goodwill

After a while.

Purple Cat grabbed at the air. The five spirits turned into five rays of spiritual light and entered her body again. She raised her head proudly.” You’re a big shot. You have to speak.”

“You’re a slippery one,” Zhang Ronghua laughed and scolded.

The cat had also become smart. It was afraid that it would not be taught, so it praised it and killed it.

He raised his index finger, and golden light flashed on his fingertip as he imparted the Earth Escape Technique.

Tian ‘er was dumbfounded. She wanted to cry but no tears came out. The scene she was most afraid of still happened. The silly cat had learned how to burrow underground, so how was the rat going to hide? Looking at the direction of the study room, he made a helpless decision. He would study hard and strive to comprehend the Righteousness Qi as soon as possible. He would not give it any chance.

There was a knock on the courtyard door.

Uncle Shi brought Cao Xing over, carrying four exquisite gift boxes in his hands. His expression was uneasy, and his heart was nervous. He didn’t know if the lord would take a fancy to them.

Although these things were all of his wealth and were worth a lot, would Daren take a fancy to them with his wealth?

He placed the items on the stone table and respectfully cupped his fists.

Zhang Ronghua smiled slightly. His arrival was within expectations. If he didn’t come, it would be strange. It meant that he wasn’t suitable to be in the officialdom. He would either stay in this position for a long time or be transferred to another place. He pointed at the stone bench and said,” Sit.”

Zheng Qingyu came over with a tray, put down the two cups of tea on it, and left tactfully.

Zhang Ronghua introduced,” This is Eastern Sea Ten Thousand Spirit Tea. It’s a top-notch spiritual tea. The effect is the best when you drink it for the first time. It’s not bad. Try it.”

“Yes, sir!” Cao Xing was very reserved.

After taking a sip, boundless spiritual energy entered his stomach. His cultivation moved, and there were faint signs of loosening. He could not help but finish the rest of the tea.

Seizing the opportunity to break through, he hurriedly stood up and sat on the ground to circulate his cultivation to refine it. Fifteen minutes later, he advanced another step and broke through to the first level of the Great Grandmaster Realm. He cultivated for a while more. When his cultivation stabilized and he stood up, he bowed.” I will never forget your kindness. I will definitely repay you with my life!”

” Yes.” Zhang Ronghua nodded in satisfaction. He asked him to sit down and asked,” Have you decided?”

” Before I go on duty,” Cao Xing said,” the higher-ups have passed down the appointment. I’ll be promoted to General Hu Fen. From Rank Four, I’ll be in charge of the left wing of the Golden Scale Mysterious Heaven Army.”

” Speak less and do more. While cultivating, take some time to read some military books. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask me.”

“You know the art of war?” Cao Xing was surprised.

“A little,” said Zhang Ronghua.

“This subordinate understands!”

They chatted for a while.

Cao Hang took the initiative to leave. Zhang Ronghua accepted the things that Cao Hang had brought. No matter how valuable they were, he had to accept them. Otherwise, it would send a wrong signal that he didn’t like them and looked down on them from the bottom of his heart. Things could be big or small. With his intelligence, he naturally wouldn’t make such a low-level mistake.

He ordered Zheng Qingyu to prepare a generous gift. It was heavier than Cao Hang’s gift. It was wrapped in an exquisite box. He handed it over personally and patted his shoulder. He said earnestly,” Don’t disappoint me!”

Cao Xing was touched. His heart was heavy. His lord had treated him with great kindness. He would repay it with his life. He nodded heavily.” I will not disappoint you!”

“Be careful,” Zhang Ronghua reminded.

He asked Zheng Qingyu to send him out of the residence.

In the room.

Zhang Ronghua sat in the hall, eating a banana and reading a book. He was feeling uneasy. Emperor Xia was happy, but he had caused himself to suffer. The matter with the Palace of Ten Thousand Books was perfectly resolved, and people believed it to be true. However, it sent a signal that he and Yang Hongling had reached the point of escaping marriage. The old man had started to set a test. With Ji Xueyan’s power, not to mention that this matter was not a secret, she would even know about it.

She was absent-minded and looked outside in fear. She had sacrificed so much last night and even drank the “sour tea”. This…This was f * cking hard to explain!

Footsteps sounded, heavier than before, and a figure appeared at the door.

Zhang Ronghua took a sip of tea and tried his best to look natural. Ji Xueyan pushed open the door and entered before closing the door.

Her face was tense like an ice sculpture. There was no emotion in her eyes. Even her eyes were cold. There was no gentleness or sweetness in her eyes. Her red lips opened slightly.” Congratulations on your marriage!”

“Sigh ~!” Zhang Ronghua put down the book and sighed helplessly.

” You don’t believe me either?” he asked with a self-deprecating smile.

His words caused huge ripples!

Ji Xueyan bit her lips hard, and blood seeped out. When she heard this news during the day, it was like a bolt from the blue, almost breaking her defense. She endured it with great perseverance until now. No matter what she did, she was absent-minded and listless. She had to pretend that nothing had happened in front of outsiders. One could imagine how tired she was. She finally stayed up late into the night. She could not help but want to ask for an explanation.

She was silent.

Zhang Ronghua continued,” The situation in the palace is very complicated. There are some things that I don’t know. Just like this time, I only stayed in the Hall of Ten Thousand Books for five days under the orders of the old teacher.”

Based on his understanding of him, it didn’t seem fake!

The old master would rather sacrifice his granddaughter’s reputation to do this. What was his goal? Could it be related to the palace?

“What about you and Yang Hongling?” Ji Xueyan’s expression softened and became gentler.

He observed his expression.

Zhang Ronghua got up from his chair and walked up to her, holding her soft hand.

“Really?”

” You’re really a friend,” Zhang Ronghua said as he scratched her delicate and beautiful nose.

He held Ji Xueyan’s face and gently tapped her forehead.

“Are you jealous?”

“What do you think?” Ji Xueyan rolled her eyes at him.

This was just the beginning. There might be more in the future. It was better to take precautions first so that it would be easier to explain if it happened again. Zhang Ronghua said,” As my status has become higher and higher, I have been involved in more confrontations. Some things are beyond my control. For example, this time, I knew that the impact would be bad, but I had to agree.”

He changed the topic and took the initiative to express his dissatisfaction.

“Do you think I’ve been idle these past few days? No! You’re wrong. You’re thinking about Jixia Hall and how to improve their strength. You forget to eat and sleep. You don’t even sleep for two hours a day. You’ve spent countless efforts to create four martial arts techniques and a Tempering technique.”

Ji Xueyan frowned.” You created the Five Elemental Righteous Sword Formation in half a night. Why do you need so much time to learn five martial techniques?”
