"It's necessary for the elder to cooperate with me. I'll stall, and naturally, no one dares to easily offend you. Sometimes, 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 me now." Elder Zhong had understood his meaning.
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 some leisurely yamen.
Therefore, most of the disciples are concerned about the nation and its people.
