Chapter 197: Confrontation in the Imperial Study
Translator: 549690339
Zhang Ronghua recalled what Ding Yi had said three days ago. He seemed to have brought a painting over, but due to a strange combination of factors, it was destroyed by him. A painting was stained with blood everywvhere. Not to mention the mountains and rivers, there was not even a single blank spot. Combined with Yue Heng’s current attitude, it made sense. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and had a mocking expression on his face, as if he was watching a clown.
Yue Heng was furious. Although he was a scholar and had the same official position as him, he was still older and had been in the Scholar Hall for so many years. Yet, this person actually ignored him like this. His anger burned and exploded instantly. He pointed at Zhang Ronghua’s face and shouted,”What kind of attitude is this?”
“Didn’t anyone tell you not to point at other people’s faces when you speak?”
Zhang Ronghua grabbed his hand and exerted force. Yue Heng’s knees bent in pain as he cried out miserably,””Stop…”
Bang!
With a loud thud, he knelt on the ground. He was used to living like a king, when had he ever suffered such a crime? Her tears were like a dam that had been released, flowing uncontrollably. She said with difficulty,”Let go!”
Zhang Ronghua waved his hand and threw him to the ground.””Put away your old tricks. It’s useless in front of me!”
“Humph!” Yue Heng’s expression was ugly as he got up from the ground.
Looking at him, she remembered that he was a military general and had been transferred over from the Eastern Palace. She was a scholar with no strength at all. Wasn’t she asking for trouble by using violence in front of him?
Those censors were only scolding the True Dragon Palace in the imperial court. If they dared to do so in public, they would be beaten up.
It was his fault again. He pointed at Zhang Ronghua first. Even if he made a fuss, it would not be reasonable. Everyone was a scholar. Who could he blame if he could not defeat others?
He took out the memorial from his sleeve and threw it coldly on the ground. Then, he turned around and left.
Zhang Ronghua smiled.” Scholar Yue is a very powerful official. He actually threw away the memorial just like that. I’ll go to Lord Li and tell him about this.’”‘
The faster he walked, the faster he rolled back. He hurriedly picked up the memorial from the ground and slapped it a few times. He wiped the dust off his body and said angrily, “Stop slandering me!”
He raised the memorial high and cupped his hands respectfully.
“I have always respected memorials!”
Yue Heng handed it over and said, “Lord Rong wants you to send the memorial to the Ministry of Justice! ” “Where are the others?”
“How do I know what you mean?”
Zhang Ronghua took the memorial. Yue Heng flung his sleeves and walked out.
He opened the memorial and was just about to close it when he frowned. He saw traces of a potion on it. He used his Spiritual Eyes to suppress the phenomenon. When he looked again, the potion on the words slowly disappeared. The contents changed as well. It was no longer imprisoning Zhou Xuewen in the Ministry of Justice’s prison, but immediately executing him!
Seeing that the potion was about to disappear completely, Yue Heng’s figure was about to walk away. His right hand patted the Five Dragons Spirit Controlling Belt and took out a voice recording stone. A stream of Xuanhuang True Essence was injected into it to record the contents of this memorial.
Then, he shouted at his back, “Wait!”
Yue Heng stopped in his tracks and looked at him coldly. He did not even bother to hide his disgust.
“Who sent you this memorial?” Zhang Ronghua asked.”
“Lord Rong!”
“Send him to the Ministry of Justice?”
“Didn’t I tell you just now?” Yue Heng snorted impatiently. I told you to give it to me, so why are you talking so much nonsense?”
She quickened her pace and left quickly.
He didn’t want to stay here any longer. He couldn’t beat the other party. If you were to talk to him about literature and curse him, he would fight you. Who could take that?
Zhang Ronghua smiled. Their conversation had already been recorded by the voice recording stone. At this moment, the potion on the memorial also disappeared. The hidden content was revealed and recorded.
He put away his clear eyes and the voice recording stone.
Judging from Yue Heng’s performance earlier, he had been sold out by Rong Qinggui, or rather, abandoned completely. He had not told him the truth and asked him to come and deliver the memorial.
If Yue Heng knew, he wouldn’t have acted like this. His anger was shown on his face, but at the very least, he was amiable and spoke with a gentle smile.
A knife that didn’t bleed was a knife that could kill.
“It’s a miracle that such a person can survive until now!”
He stuffed the memorial into his sleeves and glanced at the main hall. Seeing that Ding Yi was still cultivating, he did not disturb him. He closed the door and walked out.
He wasn’t in a hurry to go to the Ministry of Justice. The evidence was in his hands. If he didn’t take the opportunity to arrest Rong Qinggui, he would be letting down his good intentions!
He changed directions and walked towards Li Daoran.
At this point.
Zhang Ronghua knocked on the hall door. Li Daoran’s voice came from inside with dignity.”Come in!”
He pushed open the door and walked in before closing the door.
When he walked inside, he was dealing with official business. Seeing Zhang Ronghua, he smiled warmly and stood up from his chair. He walked around the desk and invited him to sit down at the table.
He took the teapot and poured two cups. He placed one cup in front of Zhang Ronghua and made an inviting gesture.”Try it!”
He held a teacup.
Zhang Ronghua took the tea and placed it over the tea. The tea rippled in circles. He took a sip and put down the teacup. He praised, “Good tea!”
Li Daoran rolled his eyes at him.”lt’s just so-so. How can it be good tea?”
However, he was quite happy. Everyone liked to hear good things..
