"It’s necessary for the elder to cooperate with . I’ll stall, and naturally, no one dares to easily offend you. Sotis, as long as we achieve our goals, we don’t need to publish all the bad news."
"As long as we can benefit the people, let the involved party express their grievances, and make lawbreakers pay the price, whether it’s published in the newspaper is secondary."
"Good lad, you’re even calculating against now." Elder Zhong had understood his aning.
Chu Heng alone doesn’t have such great power to stop all the officials, after all, there are quite a few whose status is higher than his.
But Elder Zhong is different. He is the head of the cabinet and a seasoned official of two reigns. Emperor Xuanming does not neglect him and has given him considerable power.
Moreover, Elder Zhong has countless disciples.
Though in the past, most of them stayed in so leisurely yan.
Therefore, most of the disciples are concerned about the nation and its people.
Even Minister Qi and others have to give him so face.
Even Grand Tutor Deng does not want to confront Elder Zhong.
Although he is a Grand Tutor, it’s actually a nominal position without much real power, let alone disciples.
Even though he acts with so abandon, he doesn’t want to make it widely known.
Moreover, offending Elder Zhong ans offending a group of scholars. Though these scholars don’t have much substantial influence on him, his reputation would suffer, and for officials, what’s important is nothing but fa and fortune.
Endless troubles could give his political enemies an edge, leading to consequences beyond his control.
Therefore, only when Elder Zhong steps in.
So, if we truly encounter any issues in the future,
The official newspaper can gain the upper hand.
Whether it’s published in the official newspaper or not, what the offender has done will surely be known to Emperor Xuanming, and the young person’s prospects could thus be cut short.
On the contrary, it can make so young people pay more attention to their words and actions.
Elder Zhong quickly understood Chu Heng’s intention, stroking his beard, "Alright, let’s proceed with this."
"Let’s go, go inside first." Chu Heng took the lead and went inside.
Several officials, hearing this, had a bit of excitent in their eyes, after all, with Chu Heng and Elder Zhong genuinely supporting the official newspaper, it is bound to develop well in the future.
"Everyone, just proceed with your tasks today, and be more cautious. There are quite a few officials in the capital who may already be dissatisfied with our official newspaper and won’t hesitate to cause us trouble. You not only have to pay attention to your own safety but also assess the truthfulness of so cases."
"For any case involving a life, rember to report it to the Ministry of Punishnt. Gathering information doesn’t necessarily have to be under the guise of the official newspaper’s identity. Be flexible, use the identity of the Ministry of Punishnt’s bailiffs. The goal is to stay safe while gathering true news." Chu Heng didn’t shy away from giving these tips.
This is still, after all, the strictly hierarchical ancient tis.
Encountering so assassins, setting traps could cost lives.
"Once a person is gone, everything truly vanishes. Don’t dwell on righteousness. Only by staying alive can soone fight for the people’s justice. If you die in duty, the benefits might not necessarily fall on you, and in the end, it’s Elder Zhong and I who would gain. Even if we say thank you, you won’t hear it."
Yan Zhenming’s lips twitched slightly, thinking, ’Lord Chu, are you sure saying the truth like this won’t offend anyone?’
Initially, the other officials had strange expressions on their faces.
After realizing it, they understood that Chu Heng was reminding them, moreover, protecting them.
