Chapter 786 The Purge
Chapter 786 The Purge
"This…"
Several veterans of the Archives Department looked at Chu Tianxiong, who couldn't wait to leave, with wide eyes.
They pulled Mr. Zhong, who was standing beside them, and started to complain.
"Oh, Zhong, look at this. What kind of attitude is this from our Lord? Is this the attitude to discuss important national matters?"
"It's outrageous! We are from the Archives Department. As high-ranking officials, we are not as important as his granddaughter. What kind of reasoning is this?"
"Recently, Lord Chu has completely lost his mind. He's completely enchanted by his little granddaughter."
Feeling helpless, Mr. Zhong could only console them repeatedly: "Everyone, please calm down. Don't get angry, don't get angry."
"I have served in the Lord's residence for a lifetime, serving the Lord for decades. Speaking from the bottom of my heart, in all these years, I have never seen the Lord so happy, so delighted."
He sighed with emotion and said, "The Lord is exhausted. Please let him rest for a few days and enjoy some family time. I beg you all."
"You all have children and grandchildren, a house full of descendants, but the Lord, his son, is still on the frontlines, shedding blood and killing enemies."
These words silenced the veterans.
They felt a mix of sadness and complexity and felt ashamed to say anything. They just shook their heads and sighed before leaving one after another.
"Farewell, sirs." Mr. Zhong respectfully saw off the ministers of the Archives Department.
He turned around and looked toward the study, where Chu Tianxiong, accompanied by Duo Duo's joyful play, constantly smiled. He still stood tall, but white hairs were growing on his head.
He was no longer the Lord Chu, the legendary guardian adored by billions of Donghua citizens, who stood above everyone else.
He was just an ordinary old man, a man who had carried loneliness for decades and moved forward with burdens and nothing more.
"If Master Feng could see this scene, how wonderful would it be?"
Mr. Zhong couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, feeling deeply moved. "The Lord has truly changed a lot."
At this time, in Xi Ye, Fengdu Camp
Chu Feng leaned over the desk, having just finished dealing with several official documents. He rubbed his tired eyes and gazed at the distant, bright moon, lost in thought.
I wonder how Duo Duo in Yenching is doing, whether she is happy or not, and if she misses me.
And also, Chu Tianxiong...
Chu Feng couldn't help but think of that stern and serious man with complicated feelings.
"So, reviewing reports every day is this tiring."
Chu Feng glanced at the pile of reports on the desk, and a smile appeared on his lips.
Talking to himself, "So, he has spent the past twenty years like this, huh?"
It seems that there was finally a bit of understanding in his heart for this 'father' who refused to acknowledge him.
"Dragon Lord, have some supper. The kitchen just made some food."
At this moment, Chen FengXing walked over with a bowl of steaming porridge. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
"I'm actually a bit hungry. Have some with me too."
Chu Feng smiled and didn't hesitate; he directly enjoyed the meal.
He casually flipped through the recent reports. "Any news from Xi Ye recently?"
Chen FengXing said, "Since the downfall of the Wu family, those corrupt officials from Xi Ye can no longer be arrogant. They are living in fear every day. Our efforts to purge them have been effective. At this rate, it won't take half a month to complete the entire process."
Chu Feng nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
