Chapter 127: Just Copper? There's Plenty!

After Deputy Officer Lu had decided the reward for Zhang San, Principal Officer Yue turned toward Pharaoh with a beaming smile and asked, "Pharaoh, are you satisfied with this outcome?"

Pharaoh laughed and waved his hand, saying, "After all, this is a matter for the Town Martial Office, and it's not appropriate for me to intervene. Continue with your cases and don't mind me; I'm just passing by to have a look. After all, Zhang San is my closed-door disciple, a direct apprentice, and I must avoid any appearance of favoritism."

Principal Officer Yue's face was all smiles.

Indeed!

You really avoid favoritism, sitting right at the top.

What else could we do?

However, Principal Officer Yue also discerned another implication in Pharaoh's words.

This is Pharaoh's closed-door disciple, and a mere reward of sixty jin is settled?

That's not taking Pharaoh seriously at all.
