Chapter 99 Dali Temple Minister, Meets Shao Bao 【Xie Linghao looked at the name of this young Dali Temple Secretary.】 [He was wearing a scarlet official robe, a rank of fifth rank official.] [The Dali Temple is a fifth-rank official, and its power is unmatched by any of the six ministries of the same rank.] [He naturally knew this person—Wang Shian, a descendant of a famous family, grandson of Wang Yang.] [At a young age, he has already made a name for himself in the Dali Temple, and has been favored by two important officials, the Temple Minister and the Junior Minister, who often accompany him. This honor shows that he holds an important position in the Dali Temple.] [It has received much praise in the capital. ] [It means that he inherited the legacy of General Wang Yang, being loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and enforcing the law impartially.] [However, at this moment, he suddenly spoke, especially in his words to Lu Shaobao, which showed his rudeness.] 【Xie Linghao couldn't help but frown slightly. 】

【Zhang Lin was also unhappy, especially with the boy's tone.】 [Lu Yu, his eyes are a little cold. ] [“Shi An, please don’t be disrespectful. The title of Grand Protector is not something you, a mere fifth-rank temple secretary, can easily discuss.”] [The old man on the left warns softly, his words are full of tolerance and no blame. ] [After saying this, he slowly turned his gaze towards you, his smile gradually faded, his eyes revealed a coldness, and he slowly said: "As soon as the young guard entered Kyoto, he stirred up such a storm."] [“This celestial drum was erected by Emperor Gaozu himself to represent the people’s petitions. If it is damaged, the responsibility would be so great that one could be sentenced to death.”] 【“Does the young master know?”】 [You ignored him and looked at the middle-aged man in the middle.] 【Wang Shijie heard this and bowed to the old man, respectfully but elegantly saying:】 [“Sir Shaoqing, I have studied Daqing law since I was young, and I know that no one can be above the law. Although I am dull, I understand this principle.”] [“You…”] [The old man's name is Yu Chen. For twenty years, he has been sitting firmly in the position of Junior Official of the Dali Temple, and has experienced the ups and downs of officialdom.] 【Wang Shijie respected him as a teacher and took him with him personally.】 [Wang Shijie has an upright character. He is a pillar of talent cultivated by the Dali Temple. He comes from a famous family and has been raised to be brave and fearless since childhood. This integrity is deeply loved by Yu Chen.] [Officialdom is like a battlefield, full of twists and turns and undercurrents. Yu Chen knows that people who are too upright are often the target of public criticism.] 【therefore!】 [He often warned Wang Shijie earnestly that the way to be an official is to be both firm and flexible, so that he can be at ease in this complex and ever-changing situation and remain invincible.] [Behind the screen, the three beauties stood quietly, facing the sudden visit from the Dali Temple. ] 【Xie Lingxuan, with a beautiful and refined appearance and a calm expression. 】

[Zou Shuning was full of doubts. She didn't understand why the Dali Temple appeared by coincidence. It seemed that they had planned this for a long time.] [Obviously, he has bad intentions! ] 【Tao Jiamin was a little curious, what about the Dali Temple? 】 [Arrest this Lu Shaobao? ] [Wei Gao is still in the Dali Temple's prison. If you are arrested by the Dali Temple. ] 【Isn't saving lives just empty talk?】 [Finally, the Dali Temple Minister spoke.] 【now!】 [The eyes of several people converged on Dali Temple Minister Dai Zhong.] [Dali Temple, the one who really calls the shots! ] 【You need to know! 】 [The position of Dali Temple Minister not only requires the emperor's approval, but also the recommendation of all officials. He holds a high position and has great power, supervising all officials.] [Needs people with good morals, integrity, and abilities. 】 [You glanced at the three people present, and finally landed on Dai Zhong, a middle-aged man with a cold expression and sword-like eyebrows.] 【Wang Shian also waited quietly. Even though he had always been conceited since childhood, he had nothing but admiration for this boss.】 [Dai Zhong, this name has become a legend in the Dali Temple and even the entire court. ] [Starting from a low-ranking postmaster in Kyoto, he solved seven or eight unjust, false and wrong cases, and even several bizarre cases that shocked the whole country. As a result, his reputation rose rapidly, and his career path was smooth. He was promoted all the way until he was honored as the Minister of the Dali Temple. ] 【It is called "Kai Cat" by the people of Kyoto. 】 [Cats are good at catching mice and getting rid of harm for the people. ] [Yu Chen was also quite impressed by this superior. Both his ability and methods were first-rate. The Dali Temple was at the center of the storm in the court, but it still stood firm.] [He was still a little scared! ] [Yu Chen had worked with this Dali Temple official for four years, but he had never seen a smile on his face.] [Dai Zhong always keeps a stern face and never shares his thoughts with others, so it is hard to get a glimpse into his heart.] [This kind of calmness, which is almost indifferent, makes people feel an inexplicable awe. ] [Whether facing the prominent ministers in the court or the supreme emperor, Dai Zhong always has the same expression. 】 [In handling daily government affairs, he is extremely rigorous, decisive, and resolute, and does not allow for any slackness.] [In the Dali Temple, Dai Zhong's prestige is profound. The monthly routine official assessment, the strict review of Daqing laws, and the fair evaluation of the performance of the month all make the officials feel fearful and trembling.] 【Zhang Lin was standing by, and was also a little nervous around Dai Zhong.】 [This Dali Temple Minister is a ruthless person. Even if they are relatives of the emperor or high-ranking officials in Kyoto, he never shows favoritism. He only respects the law and not human feelings.]

【Xie Linghao didn't dare to say much, knowing that Dai Zhong was a fair and just person.】 [He also spoke frankly and fearlessly about the emperor's mistakes. Emperor Zhou Zhen often said: "Use copper as a mirror to correct your clothes and hat; use history as a mirror to understand the rise and fall of things; use the weight of the head as a mirror to understand your virtues and conduct."] [When Dai Zhong first came to Kyoto, his life was quite difficult.] [He worked as a postmaster in the government office, and at the same time he had to take care of his paralyzed mother in bed.] [My family was in financial difficulty. When I was working in the government, I had no money left to hire servants, so I spent all my money on medicine.] [He often worked in the government office without his mother's knowledge.] [Until his mother passed away, he was still a minor official.] [When his mother passed away, he was the only filial son in the mourning hall, with no relatives or friends.] 【Be a filial person! 】 [To this day, the high-ranking official of the Dali Temple is still penniless and childless. ] [There is always a coffin at home. ] He said, "As an official, I have never thought about living a life of ease." 【In the past thirty years, the Kyoto officialdom has been plagued by corruption and treachery. However, Dai Zhong used only four years to sweep away this filthy atmosphere with a truly iron fist.】 [Several people were just waiting for Dai Zhong to speak.] 【Dai Zhong laughed! 】 [This middle-aged man who never smiled suddenly showed a smile that he had never seen before.] [Yu Chen witnessed this scene, and his astonishment was beyond words. He simply couldn't believe his eyes.] [You know, the emperor of today once spared no expense, gifting her with beautiful women, BMWs, and luxury cars, just to "win Dai Zhong's smile", but in the end he failed to get what he wanted. ] 【Dai Zhong has never laughed! 】 【Wang Shian was also surprised. He had followed Dai Zhong for many years, but he had never seen the Temple Minister so happy.】 【Zhang Lin's face looked strange.】 [The three people behind the screen also looked puzzled.] [“Dai Zhong does not smile”, this was once the most talked-about topic in the Dali Temple. ] [Xie Lingxuan's beautiful eyes sparkled with a strange light. She stared at you, as if she saw some kind of connection with you, with a charming smile on her lips.] 【Zou Shuning looked puzzled! 】 [At this moment, the atmosphere in the main hall of the Imperial City Department was solemn.] [Dai Zhong slowly walked to the center of the hall, bowed deeply, and then laughed loudly:] 【“Dai Zhong, meet the young master!”】

[There is a force that shakes the hall! ] (End of this chapter)
