Chapter 1486: Sealing (5) Chapter 1486: Sealing (5) In other words, Jiang Shangcheng was a hardcore supporter of the Emperor.

“Here’s a toast to you!”Zhang Ronghua raised his teacup.

The two of them drank it in one gulp.

Zhang Ronghua took the teapot and filled his cup, then poured himself another cup.

Su Ming continued,” Su Wenzhang, Zhao Qingxue, and Zhou Shangxuan are my people.

They came from the imperial examinations, and they are all my trusted aides.

You can use them without worry.

You don’t have to worry about betraying me.”

Su Wen was a servant who participated in the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Zhao Qingxue was a supervisor who was in charge of the logistics of the Second Division, and Zhou Shangxuan was a doctor in charge of the Second Division.

“Don’t worry about Uncle Su’s men,” said Zhang Ronghua seriously.

Su Ming smiled in satisfaction.

They had been with him for so many years, and now that they were being transferred away, he had to think about them.

With Qing Lin protecting them, no one in the Ministry of Official Personnel Personnel would dare to touch them, and they could still put up a good front.

” You…” Half-jokingly, half-seriously,” I might have to rely on you to get through the complicated situation in the future!”

“Don’t worry!” Zhang Ronghua said.

It will only get better and better.”

Both of them laughed.

Although it was said in a hazy manner and ordinary people could not understand it, only the people in the officialdom understood.

Zhang Rong Hua had solved the problem of having no one in the Ministry of Personnel Personnel.

He did not have to waste any time and would be able to take over the position of left assistant minister.

Su Ming had obtained a guarantee that as long as the former did not fall, he and his family would be safe and sound.

The relationship between the two sides had improved further and was even better than before.

Su Ming reminded him out of the concern an elder had for a junior.” Leave a backup plan for everything.

It’s better to be prepared.

You won’t be so flustered in the future.”

“Remember it!” Zhang Ronghua said.

“Please wait a moment.

I’ll send you to your post later.”

“Good!” Su Ming agreed with a smile.

He stood up.

Zhang Ronghua opened the door and left.

He walked towards Jiang Shangcheng and sighed in his heart.

No one in a high position was stupid.

Seeing the upcoming power struggle, it would only become more intense.

As long as they were not absolute confidants, they would move their positions and make way for others.

At this point.

The door of the hall opened.

The person at the door bowed and said,”The Minister has instructed that you can enter directly.” 

Jiang Shangcheng didn’t put on airs just because he was the Minister of Personnel Affairs.

When he saw Zhang Ronghua, he stood up and said with a smile,” I’ve been looking forward to your arrival.

Finally, you’ve arrived.

With you here, the work efficiency of the Ministry of Personnel Affairs will be raised to a higher level.

The assessment will also be more accurate.

We’ll put an end to the occurrence of people trying to make up the numbers.”

Zhang Ronghua smiled and didn’t reply.

Their relationship was just average, so he didn’t leave any evidence behind.” Under your leadership, the Ministry of Personnel Affairs is getting better and better.

All the work is done very well.

No one can find any fault with it.”

It looked like a greeting, but it was actually a confrontation.

Although they both served the Xia Emperor and were in the Ministry of Personnel, whoever had more power would be weaker.

Jiang Shangcheng had never thought of arm-wrestling with Zhang Ronghua.

He had no confidence in winning.

Looking at those who had fallen, he knew how terrifying his power was.

As long as he did not mess around, he would never ask.

“Sit!”

The two sat down.

“Have you been to Assistant Minister Su’s side?” Jiang Shangcheng asked.

“Yes.” Zhang Ronghua replied.

” It’s me who delayed him.

Otherwise, with his ability, he would be the best.

Fortunately, he was promoted.

Otherwise, he would feel bad.”

Zhang Ronghua replied in Mandarin.

They chatted for a while.

The people below came in and handed over a new waist token.

Zhang Ronghua put it away and took the initiative to leave.

Waiting for him to leave.

Gao Shilong came in from outside and closed the door.

He was Jiang Shangcheng’s trusted aide.

He asked the main point with a serious expression.” Sir, what did he say?”

“Mind your own business,”Jiang Shangcheng’s smile disappeared and turned serious.

“But, but…You are the master of the Ministry of Personnel!”

“You think I want to?”Jiang Shangcheng shook his head helplessly.

His Majesty let a dragon cross the river for no reason, and the military officer is still on par with me.

If I give him face and call him ‘Your Lord’, or’Your Lord’, if I really shed all pretense of cordiality and call him by his name, even if the Imperial Censorate knew about this, they wouldn’t be able to make a fuss.

We are both of equal rank.”

Gao Shilong understood now.

His Excellency was compromising in disguise.

He didn’t even have a 20 – 30% chance of defeating Xia Hou, let alone 100% confidence.

That was why he was acting like this.

Looking at it now, it was indeed lacking in dignity.

In the long run, it was a wise move.

“I’m afraid Assistant Minister Su has handed over his team to him!”

“Everyone has the right to choose.” Jiang Shangcheng nodded.

“Your Majesty, why didn’t you let him go to the Ministry of War?”

“Let him go to the Ministry of War and destroy the other countries.

How will we reward him?”Jiang Shangcheng sighed.

Gao Shilong understood now.

He could delay other contributions, but not the destruction of a country.

Just like this time, three times was already the limit.

If he delayed any longer, there would be problems.

That was why Zhang Ronghua was promoted to the position of general of the ZhongTian North Army and was given the title of Xia Hou.

Jiang Shangcheng continued,” There are countless generals and generals in the military.

He has eaten the crab, but no one else has.

His Majesty has promised before that he will take action against other countries besides the Shang Dynasty.

These people are all watching.

They want to rise to the top in one step, be conferred the title of Marquis, and leave their names in history!”

“Your Excellency is wise.

I can’t catch up even if I beat my horse.”

..

Back here.

Su Ming was already prepared.

He did not need to bring anything.

Everything was prepared over there.

He asked with a smile,” Have you come to an agreement?”

“Everyone has their own duties.” Zhang Ronghua nodded.

He had guessed it.

Jiang Shangcheng would only want to fight with such a person if he was kicked in the head by a donkey.

Even if he were to take a step back and make trouble with His Majesty, he would support him with the powerful ability that Qinglin had shown!

“Where’s the palace?”
