Chapitre 391: Destined to meet again_1

Today, Shen Cong was given a task directly assigned by His Majesty, the head of the bureau of armaments, a seventh-rank position.

Simplified, this is a supervisory role over the manufacture of weapons needed at the front lines.

The actual work is done by others; his role is to keep an eye out for His Majesty, preventing corruption and any mishaps.

The position itself is not that high, but it carries a significant weight.

Because he would be able to access all the materials for casting weapons. If those on the sides of Crown Prince Wei Jiuzhong and Duke Wei Ya were chosen, it would be like setting a time bomb beside Emperor Yue.

This could not be allowed to happen.

However, iron, whether raw or already forged into weapons, is a huge temptation for ordinary people. After much consideration, Emperor Yue entrusted this task to Shen Cong.
