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

Chapter 983: Grand Secretary Cui’s Goodwill

Not only was he not used as a spear, but he had also removed one of the Second Prince’s arms!

The Crown Prince knew that he had thought of something. He continued,” When you enter the palace later, go see Minister Pei first. Inform him of my plan. Then, go find Grand Secretary Cui and tell him that I want a position in the Ministry of Revenue as an attendant and a position as Shangzhou’s governor.”

Zhang Ronghua frowned. Pei Caicai and He Wenxuan had been at loggerheads with each other in order to enter the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and take over the position of Grand Secretary Cui. If he handed over the position of the Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Works, wouldn’t it boost their power? If he really did this, Pei Cai would not say it on the surface, but he would secretly have an opinion of the Crown Prince.

The most important thing was…

Did the Crown Prince consider his feelings? Pei Caihua had always been very considerate of him. He had been supporting him since he entered the court. For example, when he was fighting with He Wenxuan in the Scholar’s Hall, he had blocked all of Grand Secretary Cui’s underhanded tricks. Even if someone attacked him in the court, he would be the first to stop them.

There was more.

He was the teacher’s student. If he did this, how could he face the teacher in the future?

The reverse was also the same.

If Pei Caicai treated the Crown Prince like this, he would also be unhappy.

Even if the Crown Prince insisted on doing this, he would not agree to it. If he could not do such a thing, he would not hesitate even if it meant breaking off relations.

He smiled.

The Crown Prince seemed to have guessed what Zhang Ronghua was thinking. He was not angry. If he really did this, he could deal with Pei Caicai this time. In the future, he could also turn around at a critical moment and put himself in a desperate situation.” The position of Shangzhou’s governor is reserved for Minister Pei.”

Zhang Ronghua smiled. This way, even though Grand Secretary Cui’s reputation had improved, Pei Caicai wasn’t bad either. They could erase the unhappiness between the two sides and speak together.” I will convey your words truthfully.”

“Go! I’ll wait for your good news.”

“I’ll take my leave!” Zhang Ronghua stood up from his chair.

He walked away and waited until the door closed.

The smile on the Crown Prince’s face disappeared. Qing ‘er’s expression turned cold. She clenched her fists.” Qinglin has passed!”

He shook his head.

The Crown Prince was neither angry nor angry. He calmly said,” A person who can even forget kindness and righteousness cannot be put in an important position no matter how capable he is.”

“You’re not angry?” Qing Er asked tentatively.

“Why should I be angry?” the Crown Prince asked.

Qing ‘er had thought it through. Zhang Ronghua had adhered to his principles this time and did not betray Pei Caicai. In the future, if someone threatened him to attack His Highness, it would be the same. As for the evidence of Yan Lihua’s crime, it was something he had picked up for free. He had earned a big position in the Ministry of Revenue.

“Your Highness is wise!”

..

He left the Eastern Palace.

Zhang Ronghua took out his official robe and changed his clothes before rushing to the palace.

After entering the Vermilion Bird Gate, he first went to the Ministry of Rites and briefly explained the matter. Pei Caihua agreed. If they directly attacked the Crown Prince, he would not do anything. However, if they attacked Zhang Ronghua, it would be different. He would definitely do something.

With their relationship, if something happened to the Crown Prince, Zhang Ronghua would not just leave it alone. When he made a move, he would also step in. Whether he was willing to admit it or not, this was the truth.

The relationship between the three was indirect. On the other hand, it would be effortless to heavily injure or even bring down the Second Prince. The Crown Prince would have one less enemy, Zhang Ronghua would be safer, and he would not have to participate.

As for He Wenxuan, it was not that he looked down on him!

So what if their faction got Yan Lihua’s position? How could he steal Grand Secretary Cui’s position from him? Confidence came from one’s own strength. Without strength, one would not be unyielding.

They chatted for a while.

Zhang Ronghua took his leave. Emperor Xia had given them two days off, and the matter of the Celestial Thearch’s God-Sealing Technique had not stopped yet. If they appeared in the palace again, it would only make others overthink.

He changed his direction and walked towards the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.

More than once.

When he reached the door, the leader of the Golden Scaled Mysterious Heavenly Army stopped him and cupped his fists.

Zhang Ronghua took out the True Dragon Token and the other party retreated respectfully.

After entering the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, he walked toward Grand Secretary Cui’s office.

His arrival was like a gust of wind that quickly spread, guessing the purpose of this trip.

After a while.

” Yes!” Zhang Ronghua stopped outside a large hall.” Help me announce that Zhang Ronghua of the Imperial Censorate requests an audience!”

“Please wait a moment!” The Golden Scale Mysterious Heavenly Army said.

He pushed open the door and entered before closing it.

In less than ten breaths, a hearty laughter came from the hall.

The door opened from the inside.

Grand Secretary Cui smiled like a flower. He was warm and happy, as if he was welcoming them from the bottom of his heart. What was there to report? Just come in.”

Zhang Ronghua didn’t expect him to welcome him personally.

“Greetings, Cui Lao!” He bowed with his hands clasped in front of his chest.

Grand Elder Cui stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. He smiled.” You came from the Scholar Hall. You’re half a member of the Tianji Hall. Why are you so polite when you’re back at your mother’s house?”

“You’ve worked hard for the country all your life. You can bear the responsibility for both public and private matters.”

Grand Secretary Cui’s smile grew wider. The two of them entered the hall and closed the door from the outside.

In the hall.

” Sit!” Grand Secretary Cui pointed at a chair. This old man wants to take something.”

He entered the inner room and came out with a golden jade box. It was carved with exquisite patterns and had a Spirit Sealing Talisman attached to it. It seemed that the things inside were worth a lot.

He took off the talisman and opened the jade box. The rich fragrance of tea wafted out. Although it was not brewed, the tea was good and the fragrance was everywhere.
