Chapter 571: Chapter 519: We Must Support Him

A regular carriage was driven out of the Imperial City, driven by a minor leader of Dong Factory. However, the fact that such a third-grade martial arts master served as a coachman was a testant to the identity of the person inside the carriage.

But when the carriage neared the entrance of Shenxiao Square, a voice ca from inside the carriage, “Stop!”

Hmm~

Indeed, the coachman’s control skills were extraordinary. At the sound of the voice, he imdiately pulled back the reins, stopping the horses in their tracks, and the carriage ca to a halt just before entering Shenxiao Square.

Then a middle-aged man with a clean-shaven face stepped out. It was none other than Huang Jin, the eunuch currently serving Zhu Houji, the ruler of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

“Before Shenxiao Square, military officers must dismount, and civil officials must alight. That’s the emperor’s decree, and I dare not violate it. I shall walk the rest of the way myself!” Huang Jin’s soft voice echoed slowly.

Shenxiao Square is based in the Shenxiao Sect.

The Taoist Temple, originally built by Pei Xuanjing himself, had been expanded countless tis as Pei Xuanjing’s power and status increased. It was now several tis larger than before. The original residents in the area had moved out, and all the remaining houses were bought up by the Shenxiao Sect.

Now, this entire street belongs to the Shenxiao Sect, which is why many people from outside this area refer to it as Shenxiao Square.

The Great Ming Divine Dynasty was thriving, Zhu Houji was unfathomable, ruler of the world. As Zhu Houji’s personal eunuch and supervisor of Dong Factory, Huang Jin held high-ranking power. Many elders and high officials of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty didn’t dare to take him lightly. Furthermore, with his Divine Position, Huang Jin was a formidable figure ranked among the strongest in the world and was highly respected.

However, even such a man did not dare to act recklessly in front of Shenxiao Square, which spoke volus about Pei Xuanjing’s status and authority as the National Adviser.

Not to ntion the rule that civil officials must alight from their carriages and military officers must dismount from their horses before Shenxiao Square, even in the absence of this rule, Huang Jin would not be so rash as to let his subordinates drive into the square.

The higher you stand, the more you see.

Huang Jin’s status in the entire Great Ming Divine Dynasty was highly ranked. For this reason, he clearly understood just how strong Pei Xuanjing was. There might be people who would want to confront the National Adviser and defy him, but Huang Jin was certainly not one of them.

Huang Jin was the emperor’s servant. As long as the emperor did not sever ties with Pei Xuanjing, he, as the emperor’s teacher, had to respect and esteem Pei Xuanjing with the utmost reverence; he couldn’t afford the slightest negligence.

It wasn’t about being a coward or avoiding trouble. It was the discretion that allowed him to step by step to his current position today.

“Forgive my late welco, Grand Uncle.” A laugh ca from a distance, interrupting Huang Jin’s reverie. He looked towards its source and saw Pang Hong, the current Vice Head of the Shenxiao Sect and the only direct disciple of Pei Xuanjing.

“Vice Head, you don’t need to be overly polite. I am not here on official business on behalf of His Majesty today. I’m just passing by.” Huang Jin hurriedly replied with a smile.

“Manager Huang, there’s no need for such formalities.” Pang Hong pointed and said, “Please.”

As Pei Xuanjing’s chosen heir, Pang Hong certainly lived up to expectations. With Pei Xuanjing barely involved, he not only managed the affairs of the Shenxiao Sect efficiently but also did not let his cultivation lapse.

When Pei Xuanjing had given him the Shenxiao Command Token, Pang Hong had set out to acquire the true inheritance of the Shenxiao Sect with Yu Zhenzi’s accompanint.

Although he suffered a lot, he was lucky to have had Yu Zhenzi’s help. Thus, Pang Hong managed to gain the Shenxiao Sect’s inheritance from that restricted place.

Carrying the Seven-Killing Sword to temper his character, Pang Hong had beco a qualified successor over the past few years. His mature and steady personality had led the Shenxiao Sect to prosper under his leadership.

Pang Hong had now reached the Onefold Spirit Realm. His cultivation speed among his peers almost ranked at the top, making many seniors feel inadequate by comparison.

However, besides the envy and jealousy of those who didn’t know him well and envied him for having an excellent master, those familiar with him knew that besides having Pei Xuanjing as his master, his own hard work and diligence were indispensable.

Together with Huang Jin, Pang Hong walked into the Taoist Temple. After everyone else had left, Huang Jin revealed his purpose for coming: “I ca here today to ask if the National Adviser intends to take action against certain individuals?”

Huang Jin’s purpose for coming was to ask about the news that Pei Xuanjing had recently disseminated through Bai Xiaosheng—that he intended to take action against those returning from the Tianhuang who were reluctant to follow the rules.

This matter should naturally be inquired of Pei Xuanjing directly. However, since Pei Xuanjing was in seclusion in the Taoist Academy and the emperor could not leave the Imperial City, no one else was eligible to find Pei Xuanjing for confirmation. Therefore, Huang Jin had to find a way to approach Pang Hong to validate the news.

Since the return of individuals from Tianhuang, the most vexed force in the entire Daming world was naturally the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

The strength of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty was sufficient to suppress all factions and maintain a stable state across the entire world. However, the appearance of these people had undoubtedly introduced countless variables. They wouldn’t dare to touch the forces behind Pei Xuanjing, but they didn’t show the sa respect to the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, occasionally provoking them.

“Indeed.” Pang Hong nodded, not denying it.

Pei Xuanjing had told Pang Hong about the reasons behind this news a while ago. Regardless of any decisions Pei Xuanjing made or any consequences that might arise, Pang Hong would not care and would support him wholeheartedly.

Even if Huang Jin hadn’t co to find him today, after they’re all prepared on their side, they would also find ti to enter the Imperial City to explain this matter to the emperor. After all, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, in actuality, is more eager to solve this issue than they are.

“Great!” On hearing these words, Huang Jin’s face showed a trace of joy, he said to Pang Hong, “Vice Head, if you are willing, could we go to the Imperial City now to explain this matter to His Majesty?”

Pang Hong agreed, and after a brief preparation, the two entered the Imperial City together.

……

At the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, Wang Qiong was discussing this matter with Gu Ji.

“What is your opinion on this matter?” Wang Qiong asked Gu Ji.

Gu Ji approved of Pei Xuanjing’s move, saying, “We should support this proposition. As more and more people return from the Tianhuang, the situation becos increasingly unstable. If we let this continue, it will undoubtedly cause greater chaos. Now if we can suppress these people, even if it only lasts for a while, it will undoubtedly give us more ti to develop.”

The Great Ming Divine Dynasty, despite its promotion, still lacked so foundation and needed more ti to accumulate and settle down. Every day was precious, and getting entangled with these people undeniably slowed their pace. When the forces of Tianhuang descended in the future, their response would only be even more lacking.

Wang Qiong had the sa attitude, he said, “So, you should focus on coordinating this matter. Regardless of how the Factory Guards react, the Six Gates can start to move and cooperate with the National Advisor’s actions.”
