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

Chapter 984: Grand Secretary Cui’s Goodwill

He introduced,” This is a top-notch spiritual tea, Bitter Bodhi Tea. It was given to me by an old friend, but I’ve never been able to bear to drink it. I’ve kept it until now. Today, you’re here. As the saying goes, a sword is given to a hero, and a good girl marries a famous person. Only someone like you who knows tea is worthy of it.”

Zhang Ronghua said,” You flatter me. I don’t know anything about tea. It’s just a cow horn peony.”

He took the initiative to take the jade box.

He patted the Five Dragons Spirit Controlling Belt on his waist and took out an exquisite and small jade gourd. He opened the gourd and poured some spiritual liquid into the teapot. He placed it on the stove and boiled it. When it boiled, he brewed a pot of spiritual tea, Bitter Bodhi Tea.

The milky white fragrance took form and filled the hall. It was refreshing and refreshing. He poured two cups and handed one over. Then, he sat down on a chair and introduced,” Only spiritual liquid can bring out the effects of such top-notch spiritual tea to the extreme. Ordinary boiled water is completely wasted.”

” You call that superficial?” Grand Elder Cui teased as he stroked his beard.

The two of them took a sip of tea.

The spiritual tea, Bitter Bodhi Tea, contained the truth of the Great Dao and could allow one to comprehend the Dao. This was not enough, but the taste was very good. It was bitter at first and then sweet, filling one’s teeth with the fragrance of the tea.

He put down the teacup.

” Did you pass the Headmaster’s side?” Grand Secretary Cui asked like an elder concerned about his junior.

“I’ve troubled you. This time, I used all my strength and forced myself to write an article to pass by luck.” Zhang Ronghua said firmly.

” Hongling said that this is for her. Not a single word of it is allowed to be spread. Otherwise, I’ll be in trouble.”

At the end of his sentence, he revealed a bitter smile to make it more realistic.

” I can understand.” Grand Elder Cui laughed heartily.” Who hasn’t been young before?”

They chatted for a while.

When the heat was about right, Zhang Ronghua took out the account book and placed it in front of him, making a gesture of invitation.

He held the account book.

Grand Secretary Cui opened it and read it carefully. As expected of a sly old fox, the contents were shocking. His expression didn’t change at all, and he only put it down when he finished reading.

At this point, there was no need to hide or hide.

“What do you want?”

“There’s an attendant in the Ministry of Revenue and a governor in Shangzhou,” Zhang Ronghua said.

Grand Elder Cui didn’t answer immediately. He went through the whole thing. Both positions were at the third rank. He had gained a lot by taking down Yan Lihua and taking down more people. He could exchange the empty positions for benefits and further increase his faction’s influence.

” Two days ago, the general of the left wing of the Golden Scale Mysterious Heaven Army had a relapse and has retired. Cao Xing is a good person. He is rigorous in his work and has strong executive ability. He can be added to the burden.”

Zhang Ronghua didn’t expect him to take the initiative to show goodwill. Cao Hang was currently a Tiger General, a Fifth Grade Official. If he advanced further, he would be a Fourth Grade Official, and he could go to court.

Now was not the time to think. Grand Secretary Cui was still waiting. He took the teapot and filled his teacup.” Is it suitable?”

“I can’t guarantee whether it will work or not. It will depend on Your Majesty’s wishes when I submit the memorial later.”

At this point.

“Thank you for your trouble!” Zhang Ronghua didn’t refuse.

After the discussion, he got up and left.

Elder Cui handed the jade box over.” I don’t like tea. It’s a waste to leave tea here.”

She stuffed it into Zhang Ronghua’s arms without any explanation.

“You’re not allowed to refuse!” he said with a straight face.

“Thank you!” Zhang Ronghua had no choice but to accept it.

He took the tea leaves and left. After taking a few steps out of the main hall, he bumped into He Wenxuan, who was rushing over. His footsteps were hurried, and his face was tense. When they met again, they would put aside their past grudges for the time being. Even if they did, they would not show it on their faces. They nodded and greeted each other before they parted ways.

They entered the main hall.

He Wenxuan closed the door and saw Grand Secretary Cui sitting on a chair. After bowing, he asked impatiently,” Cui Lao, what is he doing here?”

Grand Elder Cui pointed at the account book on the table, indicating for him to take a look.

He Wenxuan took the account book and looked at it seriously.

“What do they want?” he asked.

” A servant of the Ministry of Revenue, a governor of the Upper Province, and I’ve even given the Golden Scaled Mysterious Heavenly Army a position of a fourth rank subordinate!”

“???”He Wenxuan was confused.

Although he didn’t say anything, his eyes told him everything. Why did he do this?

Grand Elder Cui glared at him but didn’t answer. He sipped his tea.

He Wenxuan wasn’t a pig. He remembered that Han Zhenggang had received such a huge favor from Zhang Ronghua. Now, he was the censor of the Fourth Division, the Right Supervisor, and a third-grade official. Whether he was willing to admit it or not, he had to return the favor.

“But…However, the position of the Golden Scale Mysterious Heavenly Army is special. Even if Cao Xing is promoted, he can be transferred to the Fifth Division of the City Defense or the Zhongtian camp. He can be promoted on the spot and be of great use at a critical moment!”

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes lit up.

They formed their own faction and were not part of the princes. Whether Cao Xing was transferred to another faction or promoted on the spot, it did not matter at all. However, it had a great impact on the latter. The more power Cao Xing held in the Golden Scale Mysterious Heaven Army, the more the princes could not eat well or sleep well.

Grand Elder Cui seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. He interrupted him.” Let me ask you. Whose salary are we receiving?”

“Your Majesty!” He Wenxuan replied.

“Is Your Majesty satisfied with Your Highness?”

Needless to say, he would bring him to the royal study every morning court session and teach him after the court session. After that, he would let the Crown Prince go to Zhantai Hall to handle government affairs. If he had the idea of “crippling” him, how could he do this?

Grand Secretary Cui didn’t say anything this time. The question was too sensitive, and he was afraid that the walls might have ears. He dipped his index finger into the tea and wrote a few words on the table.” Will Your Highness be able to sit in that position?”
