Chapter 277 Jade "You know me from Lin Xianjue, so you should also know something about me from him." Huang Ziming looked at Levi and said, Levi nodded. Lin Xianjue did send all the information about this man, who was once one of the powerful people in the central government and had once held the highest position as Minister of Education in the Cabinet. Huang Ziming came from a distinguished family, but he was the only one left in his family. After his parents died early, he inherited all of his family's political assets in the central government and served as the cabinet representative to the college for a period of time. Perhaps it was because his family was not that big, and because he had been self-reliant since he was young, that Huang Ziming did not indulge in sensual pleasures like other family children. Instead, he was determined to make a career in the central government. He did not hold a teaching position in the college, but he used his power and connections to sponsor some students who did not come from such a good family but were very talented and ambitious. After finishing the school director position assigned to him by the cabinet, he returned to the central government and was promoted step by step in the education department because of this experience. During this period, he never broke off contact with the students he had sponsored in the college. He hoped that the few formal students who still had ambitions for the future and would not be as decadent as the entire central government had always been, could serve as the seeds of change in the central government and spread their influence. However, just when Huang Ziming thought that everything would develop in a good direction, some of those students quickly became corrupt and degenerate after entering the central workplace environment. They had long forgotten their original intentions and ambitions and turned into the purest profit-seekers. Others suffered great suppression, became frustrated in their jobs, became destitute and lethargic, lost their previous ideals and visions, and completely gave up on themselves. Only a small number of people can continue to remember their original intentions in such an environment, not be tempted by external things, and at the same time be able to withstand suppression and never lose their fighting spirit.
At that time, Huang Ziming had actually become disheartened and completely disappointed with the central government. Just when he stopped thinking too much and decided to protect the remaining small number of students, at least to prevent them from getting hurt. A large-scale march against the royal family and imperial power began, led by Tian'en, also known as Lin Xianjue, in the central government. That period was also the time when the struggle between the two factions was the most intense. The imperial party was unable to do anything about high-level members like Lin Xianjue, but those who were not of high status and identity became the targets of the royal family's venting. Some students who Huang Ziming had previously taken care of and supported and whom he regarded as the future hope of the central government were targeted in this retaliation. At that time, the current Emperor An Hong had just ascended to the throne, and he was far from hiding his greed and cruelty as he is now. He was extremely furious at the traitors who attempted to dethrone the entire An family. He used the power held by the royal family to order the Royal Academy of Sciences to arrest a large number of citizens who had participated in the march and low-level researchers from the institute, and beat and detained them. As An Hong took office, Huang Ziming, who also became the Minister of Education, wanted to rescue those students as soon as possible. He is neither an imperialist nor a republican. He believes that the current problems in society have nothing to do with the system. However, his students obviously cannot understand this point. They believe that a republic is more advanced and that the future will be better as long as the emperor disappears from the world. With Huang Ziming's identity, it would not be difficult for him to rescue those students from prison safely. However, when he was about to rescue them, he found out that on the night when the royal family arrested people, those students and some other people had disappeared! The disappearance of several people who had no identity or background and had offended the royal family was not a big deal. No one reported the case and the Criminal Department had no intention of investigating. However, those missing students were Huang Ziming's former obsession and hard work. He used almost all of his connections and finally found out that those students were secretly taken to Weiyang Pavilion on the night they were caught, and no one came out since then. When Huang Ziming was about to go to Weiyang Pavilion in person to ask the royal family for people, his students were found in the wilderness of the central suburbs. But all they found were corpses all over the floor! The boy was tortured to death, and the girl was obviously insulted before her death! The Criminal Department claimed that these were vicious cases caused by internal conflicts among the demonstrators, and thus expanded the scope of punishment and arrests, setting off a new wave of unrest in the central government caused by the counterattack of the imperial party. Huang Ziming had already collapsed at that time. He had never started a family until middle age. Having worked in the college for so long, he had long regarded these students as his own family. He had never had much ambition in the central government workplace. The reason he became the Minister of Education was entirely due to the political legacy left to him by his parents. From the beginning to the end, he never thought of hurting anyone or undermining anyone's interests. He wanted to be quite tactful about the changes in the future and only helped some students who he thought were worthy of help. And now, even these people are dead, and they died in such a humiliating way! Huang Ziming had no thoughts at that moment, he just wanted to take revenge for everything! He had never killed a chicken in his life, but at that time he just wanted to kill people! At that time, as the conflict between the two factions intensified, the royal family, for the sake of their own safety, almost closed the Weiyang Pavilion, and no one could enter without permission. It was in this context that Huang Ziming, an ordinary person and the Minister of Education in the cabinet, was able to sneak into the core of Weiyang Pavilion and even came to An Hong's bedside late at night! If he had not been suddenly awakened by a nightmare at the last moment, Huang Ziming might have succeeded.
This assassination case is more serious than all the previous ones! No matter what, the emperor is still the supreme leader recognized by all underground humans, but now he has been assassinated, and the person who assassinated him is actually the Minister of Education of the cabinet! After being discovered, Huang Ziming was able to escape safely with the help of some people! This made the royal family and the cabinet extremely angry. The Republicans had to temporarily avoid the limelight at this time. The central government launched a round of purges, and many of those extreme anti-emperor factions were caught and executed, but Huang Ziming escaped. It was as if he had completely evaporated from the central government, and no one could find his trace. As to how he sneaked into Weiyang Pavilion and entered An Hong's bedroom, it has always been an unsolved mystery. "When I wanted to kill that bastard, the force field problem was the biggest problem that troubled me. But from the information that Lin Xianjue helped me with, I learned that the force field that protects the entire royal family from the outside world is not actually constant." Huang Ziming explained to Li Wei. "Because I worked in the academy for a long time before, although I didn't inject the key to become a scientist, I still understand some scientific principles. The strength of the force field is based on the intruder's own control over the rules. It produces different protective fluctuations, from ordinary people to the chosen ones, from low to high. This is not a loophole. After all, the maintenance of the force field definitely requires energy. This kind of targeted protection is probably also for energy saving considerations." "But when I went to Weiyang Pavilion to attend a formal meeting, I found that the force field seemed to be particularly sensitive to the jade products that the cabinet found for the ministers as status symbols." "Jade products?" Levi touched his chin. "Yes, to be exact, it was a jade ring. It was a tradition of the Cabinet. Only nine people, including the Prime Minister, could have it. The jade confused the force field, causing it to have flaws that were not there originally. Finally, with the help of a domain-breaking device, I was able to successfully break in."
