June 18th, 182 A . D .

Zhang Jiao and the officials were busying themselves with the management and the documents in the government hall .

Instead of standing in lines just like the usual morning assembly, they sat in rows . Each of the officials had a small wooden table in front of them and several rolls of document scrolls . All of them were either busy writing down their reports or carrying a bundle of papers and rushed toward the other buildings .

The domestic management was a tedious and mundane task that they had to handle every day or the citizens might face some difficulties, such as land allocation adjustment, housing construction, merchants opening stores, and other miscellaneous jobs .

Normally, these jobs should have been delegated to minor officials to handle . Luo Yang City and other cities' officials always shoved away these tasks to their subordinates as they were unimportant in their point of views .

However, Zhang Jiao wanted to be useful to the people . He volunteered to take responsibility in these trivial jobs as he did not want to drag Tong down . As a result, all high-rank officials had to follow Zhang Jiao's example, or they would have been insulted as selfish nobles .

Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were there as well . They were summoned back by Zhang Jiao, so they could learn the rope about domestic affairs . Once they moved to other cities, they could be entrusted with the government tasks in the future .

…

A blue gate opened in the middle of Julu government hall . Then, a young man walked out of it with a wheeled stretcher, which another young man was lying on top of it .

Tong and Li Feihong arrived . Ding Yuan and other elders with health troubles follow suit .

Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at them with wide eyes . Although many officials got used to Tong's miracle, they had never seen teleportation or anything similar yet .

Tong looked around and found his father, but he could not find Hua Shi .

"Father, where's Hua Shi?"

"Aiya, instead of greeting your father when you arrive, you asked for your wife first?"

All officials laughed from Zhang Jiao's remark . Sima Fang's face remained indifferent while Lu Zhi had a wry smile on his face .

"He's young and energetic . What did you expect?"

"Yup, you were like this 20 years ago, first brother . "

Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang chimed in, which made the mood in the hall lighter .

Looking around the hall, Tong noticed that their gaze toward him was warm, yet weird . He felt that something was not right .

"Anyway, congratulations . Disciple . "

Lu Zhi patted Tong on his shoulder .

"Congratulations, young master Zhang!"

"Good job!"

"Congratulations!"

"Well done!"

The officials also stood up and bowed toward Tong . A few of them even raised their thumbs up, which made Tong's frown deepened .

"What's going on?" Tong turned to look at Lu Zhi and his father, asking for an explanation .

"Well, it's obvious that you didn't know . You left too early . "

Zhang Jiao smiled and started explaining the reason that Hua Shi was not here .

…

Hua Shi was exempted from all duties and was released from her job . The reason was simple .

She was three-month pregnant! Her pregnancy was found after Tong departed to Jinyang for 10 days .

That day when they found out the matter, Zhang Jiao celebrated that he would have a grandchild soon, but his plexion gloomed later after he recalled that Tong and Hua Shi had not wedded yet . They also had to invite Hua Tuo and his wife to give them an explanation .

…

"WHAT!?"

A lightning bolt struck Tong's mind . At the same time, all of his motion paused as if he turned into a statue . Thousands of flashback about the night activities came back and clouded his thought . Tong temporarily lost an ability to think .

"Welp! RIP Tong . Next time, wear a condom . " Li Feihong laughed .

Tong glared at the injured man on the stretcher . The menacing air seeped out from his body and locked onto Li Feihong .
