The old teacher shook his head, “If you don’t have enough comprehension, I won’t be able to comprehend it even if I give you some pointers.’”‘

He asked Yang Hongling to prepare lunch.

The two of them walked to the chessboard.

“Next round?”

“I’ll do as you say.”

Out of respect, Zhang Ronghua asked him to pick a white stone first, but he was rejected. He could only pick a white stone himself and put a white stone in the Heavenly Yuan.

The old man smiled meaningfully. The little guy was quite arrogant. Blackie followed him and exchanged blows. They had a full meal. When Yang Hongling finished cooking, the game was not over yet.

There were chess pieces everywhere on the chessboard, and there were no empty spots.

According to the rules, it was a draw. The white stone had the first move, and Zhang Ronghua won.

“You will also lose?”

The old master ignored her and looked at him, puzzled.”Strange! A person’s energy is limited. You’ve achieved so much in martial arts, soul master, and physical body, so why are your chess skills so profound?”

Zhang Ronghua did not expect that his chess skills would meet an opponent today.”People are different. Maybe this is talent!”

“Let’s go! They went to eat. Hongling personally cooked for them. It was something that could only be met by luck and not sought after. It was not something that could be eaten just because one wanted to.”

They entered the lobby.

The dishes were simple. There were six dishes and one soup. They were all spiritual items from the courtyard and contained dense spiritual qi. There was also a pot of Heavenly Jade Brew.

“How’s Hong Ling’s craftsmanship?”

“He’s even stronger than the chefs of the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant.”

The old man smiled meaningfully.” She knows more than this. You’ll understand when you get to know her more.’”‘

After dinner.

Yang Hongling sent him out of the Fate Academy and waited for him to leave before returning.

Seeing that his grandfather was waiting for him in the courtyard, he stopped in his tracks and said,”Grandpa didn’t lie to you, did he?”

“His talent is indeed monstrous! I’m not as good as him.”

“Do you want to consider it?”

“Humph!”

She glared at him fiercely, stomped her feet on the ground, and turned to leave.

The old man shook his head.”

The three-day holiday soon passed.

Today.

Zhang Ronghua changed into his dragon robe and brought Zheng Fugui to the

Eastern Palace. He had arrived yesterday afternoon. When he reached the door, Ma Ping ‘an had been waiting for him for a long time. He quickly walked up to him and said, “His Highness is waiting for you at the Hall of Proclamation and

Harmony.”

He nodded and responded.

When they reached the back hall, Ma Ping ‘an didn’t go in and waited outside.

The two of them entered the hall and cupped their fists.”Greetings, Your

Highness!”

The Crown Prince was in a good mood. The case had been solved. Apart from Princess Changxi, he had gained a lot from the looting and extermination of the family a few days ago. He had even secretly supported some people and earned a lot from this confrontation. He smiled and pointed at the chair.”Sit.”

The Green Girl served them tea and poured two cups of tea, placing them in front of them.

Zhang Ronghua held the teacup and held the tea lid. When the water cooled, he took a sip and put the teacup down.

“This time, you have made a great contribution. I have never been stingy with those who have made contributions. I will promote you to the Eastern Palace’s military guard. I will reward you with an inn, ten thousand taels of silver, a hundred spirit fruits, and ten pots of Heavenly Jade Wine.”

“Thank you, Your Highness!”

Looking at Zheng Fugui, the Crown Prince continued,” Although your contribution isn’t as great as your cousin’s, it’s still commendable. I’ll promote you to the Eastern Palace’s Tooth General. I’ll reward you with two thousand taels of silver and three pots of Tianqiong Jade Wine. ‘”‘

Let him go out first.

Zhang Ronghua waited patiently, knowing that he had something to say.

“This time, I understand one thing. Humans do not harm humans, but tigers do harm humans. If I don’t do anything, they will! They were trying to pull me down from this position. Even Princess Changxi, a woman, had grown ambitious and encroached on power. How could they let it go?”

“What do you need me to do?”

“When I’ve made the arrangements, I’ll naturally inform you! I’ll give you a day off to see if the inn is satisfactory.”

The door closed.

“Aren’t you too good to him?” Qing ‘Er was puzzled.”

The Crown Prince’s expression was serious as he said solemnly,””He’s worth

There was one more thing he didn’t say. Two days ago, Yang Hongling invited him to the Fate Academy as a guest. He received the news immediately. It was said that he was following the old teacher’s orders.

If Zhang Ronghua didn’t have anything outstanding, how could he have gotten his favor?

Outside.

“Congratulations!” Ma Ping ‘an congratulated him.

“Your Highness gave me a day off and let me go to the inn to take a look.”

“What position?”

Zhang Ronghua took out the deed to the house. It was located at 162 Vermilion Bird Avenue, one of the busiest streets in the capital. The people living nearby were all dignitaries and rich people.

“You’re really rich this time. With this golden rooster that can lay eggs, you don’t have to worry about money anymore.”

They chatted for a while.

Zheng Fugui still had to be on duty.

He would first return home and find his parents to tell them the news.

After listening.

Zhang Qin’s expression was serious, without any joy.””The Crown Prince is completely tying us to his boat. With fixed assets, we can still make a fortune every day and pass on our legacy. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, no one is willing to give up.”

“When he gave it to me, he had already guessed his intentions. With the current situation, we can only accept it. There’s no way out.”

“What rank is the commander of the Eastern Palace?”

“From the fifth rank, there are four thousand people in total, including the Flood Dragon Guards and the Crown Prince’s personal guards.”

Zhang Qin fell into deep thought as he paced around the hall with his hands behind his back.

He only stopped after a while.

“Right now, you can only work hard to climb up. The higher your status is, the more power you will have. No matter if it’s the Crown Prince or anyone else, they won’t dare to touch you!”

Zhang Ronghua understood his father’s intentions and firmly grasped these four thousand troops in his hands.

With his prestige in the Flood Dragon Guards and the trusted aides he secretly supported, even if he did not have the position of Lieutenant General, he could still mobilize them when necessary.

As for the Crown Prince’s personal guards, he had not interacted with them before and did not have many trusted aides.

However, with Zheng Fugui around to help him keep an eye on them, it was only a matter of time before he could completely control them.

Moreover…

He had also left a backup plan. If the Crown Prince really fell, he still had the Old Master. When he was in danger, he would ask for his help. He should not refuse.

If not…

She wouldn’t let Yang Hongling invite him, nor would she teach him the Haoran Myriad Sword Technique. She wouldn’t let him stay for lunch, and she would cook for him personally.

They thought highly of him. During the test, he also seized the opportunity to expand his network.

Chances were always reserved for those who were prepared. Moreover, his current position was very awkward. He had to save up enough capital before the Crown Prince and Ji Xueyan’s wedding. Only then could he stand tall and protect his family.

As for Ma Ping ‘an, although he was the Crown Prince’s subordinate, the relationship between the two parties was clear. Under normal circumstances, they would not fall out. If there was such a day where he dared to not appreciate kindness, he would not be lenient!

“I know!”

After the discussion, they were done.

“Let’s go!” Zheng Rou said. Let’s go and see how the inn is..”
