Chapter 864(2/2)

"Thank you, Eunuch Huang, for reminding me!" Yuan Wei thanked him, then carefully opened the wooden box and saw a statue of Sanqing Tianzun lying quietly inside.

"Shilang Yuan, is the red light all over your body?" Jiajing asked with great interest.

Yuan Wei met Jiajing's gaze, his heart moved slightly, but he slowly shook his head.

Just when Jiajing was disappointed, Yuan Wei replied: "The Taoist roots of the humble minister are far less than those of the Holy One. There is only a little red light in the image, but there is no red light throughout the body."

When Jiajing heard this, he nodded with satisfaction at first, then pointed at Huang Jin and said with disappointment: "It's a shame that you have been with me every day, but in the end you have no wisdom."

"It is a great gift for me to serve your Majesty. How dare you have such extravagant hopes?" Huang Jin was a flatterer and replied immediately with a smile.

When Yuan Wei walked out of the Wanshou Palace, he breathed a secret sigh of relief and even felt a little guilty.

In fact, when he looked at the statue of Sanqing Tianzun presented by Tao Shenxian, he saw a piece of rotten wood just like Huang Jin. Just to shorten the distance between him and the emperor, he fabricated it and said that he saw a little red light.

However, he seems to have made the right bet, and the emperor will obviously value him more. After all, he is also a person with "Tao roots".

Yuan Wei returned to Wuyi Hall, still absent-minded, but continued to inquire about Wu Shan's movements.

What surprised him slightly was that Yan Song, Xu Jie and Lu Ben were summoned by the emperor one after another, but they didn't know why.

Just when it was time to go to the lower office, the long-awaited event finally came. Wu Shan's memorial was sent from the General Affairs Department.

The thought of the scene where Sheng suddenly became furious after watching Wu Shan's memorial made him as excited as if he had drunk some fairy wine, and he immediately seemed more confident in his position as Minister of Rites.

"What? Wu Shan wants to impeach me?"

When he inquired further, Yuan Wei was completely stunned. Wu Shan's memorial was not intended to persuade the Holy Emperor, but pointed the finger at Yuan Wei for not performing the ritual of rescue that day.

"The gift of rescue is the duty of a minister!"

"Yuan Wei is disloyal if he doesn't perform the courtesy of rescue!"

"The sun eclipsed in the sky, but it disappeared with a flick of its sleeves, and it was not done by a minister!"



One stone stirred up a thousand waves. Following Wu Shan's letter, many officials wrote letters attacking Yuan Wei.

Yuan Wei could not have imagined that he had thought it was a perfect opportunity to deal with Wu Shan, but instead he shot himself in the foot.

Wu Shan did not argue with him about how to define this solar eclipse, but accused him of not performing the rescue ritual that day, labeling him a disloyal minister.

It would be fine if he was just an ordinary official, but he is the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, which is undoubtedly a direct hit on him.

The most important thing is that many officials seemed to have found an outlet to impeach him in the next few days.

From the minister to the chief minister, they all wrote memorials to impeach him, and the officials who were fined half a year's salary wanted to kill him.
