    Chapter 1244 – Imperial Court Special Ambassador


    5th month, 28th day, Handan City.


    After the Great Xia Army took over control of Handan City, Ouyang Shuo arrived.


    On the square in front of the pce, Di Chen was wearing a white robe. He personally handed the seal over. Ouyang Shuo’s face was really calm as he nodded. Xu Chu epted the items on his behalf andpleted the simple surrendering ceremony.


    Although the ceremony was short, it was unforgettable for anyone who had witnessed the historical moment.


    ...


    Within the pce, Ouyang Shuo met Di Chen alone.


    Speaking of which, this was the first time the two of them had met alone, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.


    “The Di family people, as long as they learn well, they can take up jobs in Great Xia. Whatever they did in Great Zhou, I will not bother about.”


    Right at the start, Ouyang Shuo calmed down Di Chen’s heart, showing no intentions of making things difficult for the Di family. His restraint toward the aristocratic family would begin from this moment on, and he would not dig up old matters.


    Ouyang Shuo had understood a theory, which was to ept everyone. One had to learn how to move forward.


    Seeing that Di Chen knew his position, Ouyang Shuo was really satisfied.


    What Ouyang Shuo wanted to destroy was the Yanhuang Alliance as a whole, not them individually.


    When Di Chen heard that, he heaved a long sigh of relief. This time, he had taken the right gamble. Before entering the room, Di Chen was worried that Ouyang Shuo would take the chance to step the Di Family to the ground.


    Giving up his pride finallyted him some rewards.


    “Thank you, your majesty!” Di Chen hesitated, obviously not used to their current rtionship.


    “Then what about you. What ns do you have?” Ouyang Shuo asked.


    “Me?”


    Di Chen was surprised. He did not think that Ouyang Shuo would give him an appointment.


    “I think I would like to take a rest.” Di Chen replied.


    Ouyang Shuo smiled. Di Chen wanted to take a step back now so that he could take a few steps forward in the future. With his determined personality, he definitely would not rest, as he could not help butpete against Xiong Ba and the others.


    “I think I have a suitable position for you.”


    Ouyang Shuo did not beat around the bush and said, “I am prepared to appoint you as the Honglu Temple assistant to act as a special ambassador to contact all the dynasties in the world to express the goodwill of our dynasty. How about that?”


    As a grade organization, the Honglu Temple was led by Ouyang Shuo directly and had one minister, Zhang Yi, a Grade 2 official. There was also the outreach secretary Zi Lun, who was primary Grade 3.


    Next would be one assistant, who was primary grade 4, and the one official registrar, who was secondary grade 4.


    Although the assistant was primary grade 4 and could not bepared to a Provincial Governor, it was a core position in the Imperial Court and held the position of Imperial Court special ambassador. Its power and influence was no worse than that of a Provincial Governor.


    To Di Chen, this was quite tempting.


    Ouyang Shuo decided on this appointment to make use of Di Chen’s identity as an ex-Silver Hand member to build up a channel with Silver Hand.


    This job could only be done by Di Chen.


    Building up thismunication channel was really crucial for Great Xia’s global approach. Ouyang Shuo knew that no matter how strong they grew, they would not be able to unify the world within three years.


    To disband Silver Hand and Azure Badge could only be done by acting on their members, making them fight internal wars and removing them one by one.


    Only then could he seed.


    “Yes, your majesty!”


    Di Chen swiftly epted the role.


    Ouyang Shuo nodded and let him leave. After he left, Juedai Fenghua coincidentally walked by. They brushed past one another, pretty much signaling the end of their master-servant rtionship.


    “Sit!”


    Ouyang Shuo had obviously heard of the famous name of Juedai Fenghua.


    Out of China’s three female Zhuges, she was the most famous. She was Di Chen’s most important strategist. Although she could not save Great Zhou, that did not lower her value.


    Ouyang Shuo did not bother about investigating her mysterious family history or bother about what her rtionship with Di Chen was. He only cared about whether she could be of use or not.


    Juedai Fenghua was shocked, while Ouyang Shuo was calm.


    “Di Chen has agreed to be the Honglu Temple assistant to tour countries as an Imperial Court special ambassador to connect us with the Silver Hand dynasties. What is your choice?” Ouyang Shuo asked.


    Juedai Fenghua had two choices before her. One, she could choose to not ask for an appointment and live as a shadow beside Di Chen. Two, she could take the chance and be independent.


    “The moment Great Zhou was destroyed, I became a free person.” Juedai Fenghua answered.


    Outsiders might not know this, but when they entered the game, Juedai Fenghua and Di Chen had an agreement. She would serve him for 10 years in the game. When she arrived on Hope, she would be free.


    Who would have known that in the 7th year, Great Zhou would be destroyed?


    With Di Chen’s current identity, if he still brought her along, it would be too eye-catching and would not help him regain his footing in Great Xia.


    Hence, the two had agreed to go their separate ways when they talked yesterday.


    “Returning you your freedom early is thest thing I can do for you.” Di Chen said.


    Although he said that, Juedai Fenghua still felt really regretful. Although she got her freedom back, their rtionship over six and a half years had developed some feelings and closeness.


    This was fate.


    Ouyang Shuo did not bother about her sadness. Thinking about it, he said, “Since that’s the case, the Secret Documents Pavilion has a ce for you. The three female Zhuges gathered there, what a story.”


    “Your majesty trusts me so much?” Juedai Fenghua was surprised.


    Everyone knew that although the Secret Document Pavilion was not that famous, it was the closest to Ouyang Shuo. Everyone that works there were people he trusted.


    The four advisors there each held their own responsibility.


    Head advisor Tsing Yi took control of the big picture, advisor Su Zhe drafted memorials, Feng Qingyue, who was promoted to advisor, was in charge of organizing memorials, Bai Nanpu, who was also promoted, continued his old role as the decree announcing official.


    Each advisor had two secretaries, each secretary had two assistants.


    Four advisors, eight secretaries, and 16 assistants formed up the Secret Document Pavilion and held the key role of the core of the Emperor dynasty, working solely for Ouyang Shuo.


    “I trust Feng Qingyue, so I can trust you.”


    Juedai Fenghua kept silent and did not ask any further. With her intellect, she knew that this was not the true reason. Feng Qingyue had spent half a year in the Shu Lands before she was allowed to enter.


    Ouyang Shuo had directly skipped that test not because he was attracted by her charm, but because Great Xia was too strong now and he had confidence.


    If Juedai Fenghua dared to be disloyal, she would be undoubtedly ying with fire.
