As he boarded the carriage heading to the palace, Logan Zhuang stuffed two silver coins into the hands of the eunuch who came to deliver the imperial edict.
"Eunuch, may I ask if there is any important matter that the emperor wants to interrogate you about this time?" Regardless of whether the eunuch knew it or not, he started by opening the topic.
"Don't worry, Governor. This is a reward for you." The eunuch took the silver, smiled and bowed.
"How can I talk about rewards when I haven't done anything?" Logan Zhuang said in confusion. Did he do something good unintentionally? He needed to be rewarded.
"Didn't many officials flee a while ago after hearing that the Yu-Cheng coalition forces were defeated on the front line? Unexpectedly, after a few days, the situation reversed and the Jiedu held on to Yindu, so Your Majesty decided to reward the Jiedu for his loyalty!" the eunuch explained.
