Chapter 883: Concubine Ming (2)
He put away the voice recording stone.
Zhang Ronghua stood up and walked to the room beside him.
In the room.
Lei Hai’s hands and feet were tied with iron chains, and there was one around his neck. What was worse was that the other part was tied to a pillar, making him look like a dog.
His dantian was crippled, and the pain was piercing his bones. He wanted to struggle, but he couldn’t muster any strength. He obediently leaned against the pillar and struggled to survive.
The door opened.
The person he was most afraid of walked in from outside.
“How does it taste?” Zhang Ronghua stopped and looked down at him.
Lei Hai didn’t dare to be presumptuous. From his conversation with Wan Chonglou, he could tell that he bullied the weak and feared the strong. He had already suffered a loss. He knew when to be cowardly and when to be tough.” I wish I was dead!”
“You want to go out?”
“You, you’re willing to let me go?”
Even the way he addressed her had changed. He no longer addressed himself as ” This Vice Sect Master “, but ” I “.
Zhang Ronghua smiled. He squatted down and patted his face.
Lei Hai was like a drowning man who saw a small boat. He desperately grabbed onto it. To be able to climb to the position of the Vice Sect Leader of the Ethereal Sky Sect, he was not stupid.” You want to know about Wuji?”
“Smart.”
“I always keep my promises and put my reputation first. If you do this, you’ll…!”
Seeing the smile on Zhang Ronghua’s face disappear and gradually turn cold, he swallowed the rest of his words.
The topic changed.
Lei Hai flattered,”Even if someone puts a knife to my neck, I won’t know a word!” But you’re different. If you want to know, I’ll tell you the truth.”
Zhang Ronghua took out a voice recording stone, indicating that he could speak.
Lei Hai did not dare to hide anything and told him everything.
In the past, he owed Bai Yichang a favor. Later, the other party came to him and asked him to take Bai Wuji as his disciple, and he even promised to help if there was anything in the future.
Seeing that Bai Wuji’s talent was exceptional and far beyond that of an ordinary true disciple, he agreed after some thought.
Over the years.
Every year, Bai Yichang would send people to deliver a large number of cultivation resources. Sometimes, he would also take the time to come over.
With the help of these spirit herbs and pills, as well as his guidance, Bai Wuji was able to break through to the Zongshi realm at his age. He also had two spiritual treasures.
“There’s more?” Zhang Ronghua asked again.
“No more!” Lei Hai’s eyes were sincere.
“I’ve already told you. Can, can you let me go?”
“Sure,” said Zhang Ronghua.
With a wave of his hand, the chain was cut off.
“We can go now.”
“Thank you!” Lei Hai was grateful.
He swore in his heart that it was best not to let this Vice Sect Master seize the opportunity. Otherwise, he would pay back everything that happened today.
He struggled to get up from the ground and opened the door with trembling hands. He quickened his pace and wanted to leave this place.
The leading constable stepped forward and shouted,”Where do you think you’re going?!”
Pulling out his punishment knife, he rushed forward and chopped off his head.
He sheathed his saber and returned with a fawning expression.
“Not bad.” Zhang Ronghua smiled.
Release the tiger? Let him take revenge in the future? How was this possible?
Just because he didn’t make a move didn’t mean that others couldn’t.
Bai Wuji still wanted to fight back, but after a round of greeting, he became honest and said whatever he wanted.
After figuring out the whole story, he even obtained two Numinous Treasures.
Zhang Ronghua asked two of the constables to stay behind while the remaining eight escorted the remaining four disciples of the Ethereal Sky Sect back to Xu Xing to deal with. He then asked them to escort Bai Wuji and follow behind him, covering his face with a hood.
Just as they were about to leave, Wan Chonglou and Zhu Xuechen waited at the door. They cupped their fists and bowed.
“Don’t go anywhere during this period of time. Stay here and recuperate,” reminded Zhang Ronghua.
“Daren is right!”
He left with Bai Wuji and rushed towards the Vermilion Bird Sect.
The show began.
On the other side.
Bai Yichang went to visit the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, wanting to join forces with He Wenxuan to deal with Zhang Ronghua. The latter was not stupid and guessed his intentions, so he naturally would not agree.
Moreover…
Zhang Ronghua’s current position was very high, and his power was also greater. Previously, when he fought with him in the Scholar Hall, he had the advantage but did not gain any advantage. Wouldn’t he be stupid to provoke him again?
Other than that, how could he have the energy to care about anything else when he was at a critical juncture in his assault on the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets?
Furthermore, Han Zhenggang was his subordinate. If he made a move, he would be the first to be sacrificed. Hence, he rejected him immediately.
Bai Yichang had just left.
He Wenxuan ordered his men to find Han Zhenggang and inform him of this matter. He also asked the latter to inform Zhang Ronghua to make preparations in advance and sell him a good deal.
Daren was not around, and Ding Yi had just returned.
Han Zhenggang had no choice but to tell him about this matter. After hearing it, Ding Yi knew the seriousness of the matter and did not dare to delay. Before he could even sit down, he rushed out.
When he arrived at the Vermilion Bird Sect, he bumped into Zhang Ronghua.
“Brother!”
Zhang Ronghua guessed that something was wrong. That was why he was so anxious. He ordered two Golden Scale Mysterious Heavenly Army soldiers to take Bai Wuji and ordered,” Go back and report!”
“Yes, sir!” The two bailiffs replied respectfully.
He called out.
“Let’s talk inside.”
After entering the Vermilion Bird Gate, he stopped at a corner.
Ding Yi lowered his voice and quickly recounted what had happened.
Zhang Ronghua had already guessed that Bai Yichang would definitely not let the matter rest after suffering such a huge loss in court. He did not expect that he would ally with He Wenxuan even though he could not touch Zhang Ronghua. From this, it seemed that this was not the only thing. His political enemies were probably trying to ally with him to figure out his goal. They did not care. Zhang Ronghua had already obtained irrefutable evidence. Bai Yichang was just struggling on his deathbed! He pointed at Bai Wuji and said,” This is his illegitimate son. You stay here and watch!” If Bai Yichang or his men leave the city, take them down immediately.”
“Yes.” Ding Yi agreed.
Zhang Ronghua changed his direction and rushed toward the royal study.
If they wanted to touch a third-grade official, they needed the approval of the Supreme Court and had to send it to the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets for approval. By the time the procedures were completed, the news would have been leaked.
Most importantly, he did not trust the Supreme Court.
It was simple and crude to directly get approval from the Xia Emperor to arrest him, and it could also guarantee that the matter was kept a secret.
After a while.
Outside the royal study, Eunuch Xiao signaled with his eyes for him to wait.
Looking at the six palace maids and two unfamiliar eunuchs, Zhang Ronghua felt strange. Who would come to the royal study at this time?
Grandpa Xiao didn’t call him in vain. As if he had guessed his curiosity, Eunuch Xiao gestured the word ” nine ” without leaving a trace and then returned to his original state.
Zhang Ronghua understood. Among the people in the harem, the only word that started with nine words was ” Jiuhua Hall “, which was the palace of Concubine Ming. He also knew a little about the palace.
Ming Fei’s surname was Sui and her name was Sui Yuyan. She was born in the Sui family and the Sui family had a long history. There were three branches in the direct line of descent. One was an official, one was a businessman, and the last branch was a martial artist. There were many branches that relied on the direct line of descent. Ming Fei was born in the official branch.
Before she entered the palace, she had a beauty that could drown fish and wild geese, even the moon and flowers. She had a special fragrance that spread for a mile, and was known as the two beauties of the capital with the Empress.
No wonder there was a fragrance here. It was her.
He was puzzled. Could it be that he was here for Bai Yichang? She deduced that Du Chengming was one of her men?
Zhang Ronghua couldn’t be blamed for thinking too much. It was too much of a coincidence!
Yiya!
The door of the palace opened, and a graceful, mature, and beautiful woman walked out. She was wearing a moon-white palace dress and had a unique aura. She was like a white lotus that was untainted by dust.
The fragrance was even stronger, like a mixture of roses and light chrysanthemums, fresh and fragrant.
Wearing expensive jewelry and hairpins, under the sunlight, her skin was fair and red, adding 30% charm. She stopped in front of Zhang Ronghua, her voice like an oriole, light and pleasant to the ear. It also carried the pressure of a superior, showing off her power vividly. If it fell into the hands of bandits in the suburbs, it would not stop!
Are you Zhang Qinglin?”
“Yes!” Zhang Ronghua bowed.
With a cursory glance, she had an oval face, long eyelashes, and bright lipstick, but it was not enchanting. Instead, it should be like this. Her peach blossom eyes were very bright and filled with moisture.
“Young and promising.”
“Do your job well.”
Consort Ming turned around and left. Zhang Ronghua was confused. He couldn’t figure it out. He deliberately stopped just to say a few words?
He suppressed his doubts and asked around later.
When he saw Eunuch Xiao come out, he made an inviting gesture and strode inside.
