Chapter 1154: Emperor Xia Sending Off His Concubine
He definitely couldn’t let him remember his merits. Otherwise, when he was promoted again, no one could stop him from showing his merits. Grand Secretary Zhou immediately stood up and said,” Your Majesty, the Marquis of Nancheng has made a great contribution. With so many people watching, we can’t not reward him. I suggest that we promote him by one rank and give him other rewards.”
Grand Secretary Cui and Grand Secretary Wei didn’t move. No one knew what they were thinking, but the other two Grand Sects stood up and agreed.
At this moment, the officials tactfully shut their mouths. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to speak, but their official positions were too low, and it wasn’t their turn to speak.
“I agree!” Guo Rong stepped forward and said in a deep voice.
The Grand Preceptor did not participate. The Grand Guardian and the three Pavilion Elders were enough. It did not matter whether he went or not.
Pei Cai stepped forward and followed Grand Secretary Zhou’s words.” Since Grand Secretary Zhou has suggested that you be promoted to a Marquis, why don’t you be promoted to the Marquis of Shangjing?”
The atmosphere froze. Everyone was shocked by the words “Marquis of Shangjing”!
Everyone’s eyeballs were about to pop out. Although he was a marquis, the Marquis of Shangjing represented great significance. The Marquis of Nancheng had already made an exception. If he were to make another exception, wouldn’t Zhang Ronghua’s power and influence soar to the heavens?
At this moment.

Grand Secretary Zhou wanted to slap himself! Why did he suddenly propose to promote him to Marquis? If His Majesty wanted to remember it, then so be it. Now, it had once again boosted his prestige.
Guo Rong felt as if he had eaten a fly. Pei Cai’s casual attack had dissolved their offensive. If the Emperor agreed, he could just give Zhang Ronghua the title of Marquis, which would make his contribution go down the drain. Then, he could remove the Marquis of Nancheng, killing two birds with one stone. Now, there was nothing he could do.
The Grand Preceptor was even angrier! One Taibao and three cabinet elders had actually allowed Pei Cai to take advantage of the situation. Now that he was being held back, he had no choice but to step forward.” Your Majesty is right. Marquis Nancheng’s contribution may be remembered first. In the future, we will reward him together.”
“Correct!” the Xia Emperor said.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Although they had lost face, it was a good thing that things did not develop to the worst.
“Although I’ll remember the first merit, I can’t not reward you,” the Xia Emperor continued.
He pointed at the queen, princess consort, princess, and the women of the Witch Tribe’s higher-ups.
” We’ll start with you. Pick one first, then Tu Kuangren and the other generals.”
Gulp!
The generals swallowed hard. When they caught them, although they didn’t say anything, they were wondering if the Emperor would reward them with a beauty.
Some of them had already secretly decided that if they were sent to the Education Bureau, they would visit them immediately and take good care of their business.
The women of the Sorcerer Tribe were different from the men. Their appearances were similar to the women of Great Xia. They were delicate, slim, and lively. They also had regional beauty. Some had red eyes, some had golden eyes, some had blue eyes, and so on. Their hair was the same.
Most importantly, with the addition of their status, the women kneeling here were all high and mighty figures of the Sorcerer Tribe, far superior to the women of the Education Bureau.
She had the temperament and the beauty she wanted. If she conquered them, her sense of accomplishment would explode. It could only be expressed in words. If she did not have a good time, she would definitely not go out!
Tu Kuangren did not think about this at all. However, when the Emperor mentioned it, a small flame of fire rose in his heart. He was old-fashioned and only knew how to fight. His large eyes swept over them. He felt that his mouth was dry and something was stirring.
The Shaman King was furious. His eyes were spewing fire as he roared,”You dare…!”
“Shut up!” The Human Emperor Guards stepped forward.
He kicked the Shaman King’s face roughly, causing him to fall to the ground. Without waiting for the Shaman King to speak, he stretched out his palm and grabbed roughly, dislocating his chin.
The words that the Shaman King said turned into whimpers.
The other members of the royal family dared not speak out, afraid that they would be the next one to suffer.
It was the same for the Queen, Princess Consort, and the others. The moment they were captured, their fate was beyond their control and they knew that their fate would be miserable.
If the Sorcerer Tribe were to destroy Great Xia, it would be the same. The women of the royal family, the women of the civil and military officials, and the young ladies would not be able to escape.
The Xia Emperor’s voice turned cold and domineering.” The Shamans have robbed countless women of Xia over the years. This debt has been recorded until now. Today, I will make their women pay back double!”
“Your Majesty is wise!” The soldiers shouted.
His gaze was burning and he was even more loyal. Only such a Renhuang was worth following. He would not even frown even if he had to sacrifice his life.
The old man looked at the sky in embarrassment. Everything that the Emperor did was done according to the rules. It made sense. The Shaman Tribe had stolen so many women from Great Xia. Now that they had been destroyed, what was wrong with the soldiers of Great Xia splitting up their women? Revenge, revenge, but… But what about Hong Ling?
It would have been fine if he wasn’t here, but now that he was here, he could only watch as Qing Lin brought a woman back. Although he was trustworthy, he was still young and full of vigor. The women of the Wu Tribe had no backing. Knowing that this person in front of them was a new noble in the Xia Dynasty, they would definitely do everything they could to climb up. If one day they couldn’t help it…At the thought of this, he felt his head swell.
After a moment of silence, he finally spoke.
“Cough! Cough!”
He coughed twice and then said seriously,” Qinglin’s energy is limited. He only cares about the public. He has a tight schedule every day. He has to deal with the ZhongTian Camp and the government office. Let’s forget about him!”
Zhang Ronghua was almost scared out of his wits. He was already content with Ji Xueyan and Yang Hongling!
Moreover, she was not Prime Minister Cao, so she did not have a taste for women. If one were to think about it, there were so many women in Great Xia who were prettier than them. Even if she was the Queen of the Witch Tribe, it was only because of her status. Without their status, she was no different from ordinary women.
