Chapter 1002: Zhang Ronghua’s Final Kill

Gulp!

Xu Xing and Lu Zhantang swallowed hard, and Zhang Ronghua looked at the remaining eleven jade boxes. A bold thought appeared in the minds of the three of them. Could they all be ten-thousand-year-old spirit herbs?

Thinking of this…

The three of them quickly opened the jade box.

If he had guessed wrong, the result was even more terrifying than he had imagined. Half of the twelve jade boxes contained ten-thousand-year-old spirit herbs, and the other half contained lightning tribulation spirit herbs. They were very valuable. If they were exchanged for silver, it would be an astronomical figure!

The two of them hurriedly looked at Zhang Ronghua.

“Whose?” Xu Xing asked solemnly.

“Du Chengming,” said Zhang Ronghua.

“Where did he get so much money?”

“I don’t know.” Zhang Ronghua shook his head.

“What do we do now?” Xu Xing asked the main point.

“We’ve split up.”

The two of them refused. After gaining such a huge contribution for free, it would be unreasonable for them to split the ten-thousand-year-old spirit herbs and lightning tribulation spirit herbs.

Seeing that they did not agree.

Zhang Ronghua took out two jade boxes. Each jade box contained a Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Medicine. He forcefully stuffed it into the box.” You are not allowed to refuse!”

“Thanks!”

Zhang Ronghua put away a jade box and asked them to retreat. He then took out a blank voice recording stone and injected some black and yellow internal strength into it. He recorded the contents of the nine jade boxes and put them away.

In this way, the evidence of his crime would be found, and he would be able to swallow these ten-thousand-year-old spirit herbs. If anyone questioned him, he would push the blame onto Du Chengming. As for Emperor Xia, with his intelligence, he knew that the things were in his hands, but he would not say anything and acquiesce to this practice.

Although these things were precious, what did the palace treasury not have?

Moreover, he had successfully defeated Du Chengming and completed his mission. If he wanted to make a horse run, he had to give him some grass, right?

“Court?” Xu Xing asked.

It was already time for court.

” I’ll go over first,” Zhang Ronghua said.” You guys make these people speak. It’s best if you can get a confession. If it doesn’t work, it’s fine.”

The two of them nodded.

He left the secret chamber and the mansion. He took out his official robe and changed into it before rushing to the Imperial Palace.

After a while.

Finally, just as the court meeting was about to begin, Zhang Ronghua arrived outside the Purple Extreme Hall and glanced at the Purple Extreme Gate. It wouldn’t be long before he could enter and exit from here. He entered from the side door on the left. As soon as he entered, Eunuch Xiao closed the door with two eunuchs and stood in line in the Imperial Censorate.

The surrounding people glanced at him and then looked away.

Du Chengming, who was at the front row, knew that Zhang Ronghua was here. He thought of the ” great contribution ” he had received last night, and his old heart felt like it had returned to its youth. He was so excited that he almost jumped up and down.

He sent the news to Su Qiutang through secret channels.

He heard about this matter.

Su Qiutang did not dare to delay any longer. After discussing with the Empress, she left the palace. After meeting with her, they plotted and came up with a perfect plan that could withstand anyone’s scrutiny and questioning. When the court session began, she would launch an attack on the court and take down Zhang Ronghua in one fell swoop.

With this heaven-shaking contribution, his qualifications, and the support of the Empress, he would be able to break the tradition of the Imperial Censorate not being able to win the Tianji Pavilion. From there, he would be able to take a step forward and become one of the five Pavilion Elders!

At the thought of this, even with his shrewdness and self-control skills, he could not help but smile. Although he was holding it in, there was still a smile on his tense face. He had never been so impatient before.

Hearing the footsteps coming from the back of the hall, the light in his eyes grew brighter.

As Emperor Xia appeared and sat on the dragon throne, the Crown Prince and Wei Shang stood on both sides. The latter took a step forward and swept his gaze around. He said in a deep voice,” If there’s anything, report. If there’s nothing else, withdraw!”

He was here! Finally!

Du Chengming couldn’t hold it in any longer. His blood was boiling, and he was full of energy. He was too excited. He was prepared to step out and unleash his ultimate move, but someone beat him to it and stepped out in front of him.

Shangjing’s governor, Chu Xuping, bowed and said,” I want to impeach Xu Xing. As a judge, he has neglected his duties. He did not take a break or ask for leave. The court session has already begun, but he has not appeared yet!”

“F * ck!” Du Chengming cursed in his heart. He wished he could kick him to death. A trivial matter like this was a waste of precious time.

Zhang Ronghua stood up and bowed.” Judge Xu is currently handling a case. He can’t make it in time. He specially asked me to apply for leave. He’ll come over when he’s done.”

Chu Xuping looked at them meaningfully. He knew that they had left last night, so he returned to the formation and did not say anything.

Afraid that something unexpected might happen, Du Chengming rushed forward. He seemed to have become twenty years younger in an instant, and his fighting spirit was high.” I want to impeach Zhang Ronghua for treason. He secretly colluded with the ninth princess of the Shang Dynasty, Shang Qingxuan, and served her for many years!”

Boom!

All the officials were shocked by his words. Zhang Ronghua betrayed the country? Are you sure it’s true? If that was the case, why did he develop the Flaming Thunder Bead in the Spirit Research Department? He still had to improve 197 items? Including feys?

His first reaction was that Du Chengming was dumbfounded!

However, he felt that something was wrong. With his experienced methods and wisdom, even if his head was stuck in the door, he would not dare to let it go for no reason! If he couldn’t produce any concrete evidence, his words alone could sentence him to death, and even his family would suffer.

This was taboo!

Even when the other factions attacked their political opponents, they did not use this move. Unless the Xia Emperor was muddle-headed and incompetent, was a good-for-nothing, and the court had collapsed, only then would he dare to play like this.

Not only was Zhang Ronghua not angry, he even smiled. He had guessed that Du Chengming would not sit still and wait for his death. As his subordinates continued to fall, he would definitely turn around and take him down. He did not expect to play so ruthlessly. He wanted to see how he betrayed the country.
