Chapter 1060: Indecisiveness Leads to Mistakes

This trip took nearly an hour. Wu Yi struggled, but he did not achieve his expected goal. It was time to go back. Although he knew that he would be arrested if he went back, Wu Yi was unwilling to give up his arrangement.

Liu Lao promised: "I will not give up on you!"

Although he knew that it was a blank check and might not be reimbursed, Wu Yi still thanked: "In this case, thank you very much, senior!"

It is better to have a comfort than nothing. Besides, Wu Yi did not think that he was a pawn that could be abandoned at will. How many Taoist disciples could climb to the side of the royal family and have such a high status?

Before Prince Yong, Wu Yi returned to Prince Yong's mansion. Before he left, he said to the outside that he was a little tired and needed to rest. He placed a dummy on the bed. If you don't check it carefully, you can't see it at all.

This time when he returned, there were more guards outside Wu Yi's house. Obviously, they were not here to be door gods, but to guard. It should be the order given by Prince Yong before entering the palace. Judging from their attitude, they should not know that Wu Yi was missing.

Wu Yi, who had magical powers, naturally avoided the guards of these people easily and returned to his small and simple house.

Wu Yi's current fate does not depend on King Yong, but on the emperor, how he views the officials' love affairs.

If it is considered a huge scandal, it must be covered up and all those who know about it must be killed, then Wu Yi's trip is a trap. Even if it is not, Wu Yi will be hidden.

In addition, Wu Yi is most interested in the part of the officials' love affairs that King Yong got. Is there any bad deeds of the emperor? After all, he has not finished reading it. If he had known this, he would have finished reading it before reporting it to King Yong.

The sky gradually darkened, and people and horses moved outside. He could faintly hear the maid calling King Yong's name. Wu Yi, who was lying on the bed, understood that it was time for him to be judged.

However, this time, Wu Yi only had the power to accept it.

After waiting for a long time, Prince Yong did not come, but the guards outside his house were rooted to the ground and did not leave. Wu Yi was still under house arrest. If he wanted to go out, the guards would refuse on the grounds that Prince Yong asked Wu Yi to rest, which was actually a polite way of telling Wu Yi the reality of being under house arrest.

Wu Yi was dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do. He decided to come back, so who could he blame?

At this moment, Wu Yi did not pray for the so-called Prince Yong to consider the old relationship, nor did he pray for Liu Lao and Zhang Tianwen, whom he knew, to save him. The only one who could save Wu Yi's life was actually Chu Cairen. Yes, Chu Cairen. If the emperor found out that he was missing and the news was likely to be leaked, he might pardon him and completely deprive Chu Cairen of his title.

After all, most of the content of the official deeds was not illegal, but just disorderly behavior. The people's dissatisfaction was only a short-term thing, and they soon forgot about it. At most, they would be fined and scolded.

For Wu Yi, this is the best situation, but Chucai people are not under Wu Yi's control, who knows how the high-level Taoists will decide.

It is useless to think about it, Wu Yi cuts off the distracting thoughts and cultivates with peace of mind.

Although the Daji Dynasty is in the upper realm, it is suppressed by the popularity, and the spiritual energy is relatively meager. Moreover, this place is the central capital of the Daji Dynasty. Not to mention pure spiritual energy, there is no second-rate mixed energy. Wu Yi's cultivation is better than nothing.

Of course, Wu Yi has the immortal artifact Dinglingzhu, and the spiritual energy is endless, at least for Wu Yi at present, so there is no need to take it from outside.

That night, no one came to find Wu Yi, as if he was forgotten by everyone.

The next day at dawn, when Wu Yi was still practicing with his eyes closed, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside. Wu Yi could naturally hear his footsteps after being around King Yong for a long time. That night, King Yong should know what he should know.

Wu Yi stood up and prepared to welcome him. The door opened, and something surprising happened to Wu Yi. Prince Yong actually entered alone. Did he really trust Wu Yi so much? A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, so why use these hypocritical means.

The servants presented breakfast, which was extremely delicious, but Wu Yi did not have much desire to eat.

Prince Yong sat in front of Wu Yi, sighed, and said: "I wronged you yesterday!"

"I worked for Prince Yong, so how can I say I was wronged."

"Work for me," Prince Yong repeated, closed his eyes, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Yes, work for me, but I can't save you! The affair of Chu Cairen's officials has become a big deal! The emperor is furious and vows to investigate this matter."

"It's my fault. I shouldn't have participated in the sorting before! I'm sorry for making things difficult for Your Highness." Wu Yi replied.

"You are a good minister, but you met a bad person! If it were any other prince, I think he would be able to protect you."

Wu Yi was so flustered that he bowed deeply, and then said: "Your Highness, you are too kind. This is your duty!"

King Yong was quite relieved and said: "Among all the people, you are the only one who can understand me!"

"You are in the limelight these days. You stay out of the limelight here. I will settle the things outside for you!"

"In this case, thank you very much, Your Highness!"

Then King Yong told Wu Yi about the current situation, who the emperor sent to investigate the affairs of the officials, and what the officials in the court thought about it.

To be honest, there was some polarization among the officials in the court. The senior officials were worried that they would be implicated and kept silent. However, the censors and small officials jumped the highest and wanted to seize power. This was also the case that the butt determined the head, which was beyond reproach.

The fact that King Yong could tell Wu Yi all this was actually asking for advice, which proved Wu Yi's position in King Yong's heart. Obviously, he was still unwilling to give up Wu Yi.

Therefore, Wu Yi did not hide his shortcomings and gave some of his own opinions on the situation in the court.

Although King Yong was the first to report, he had the merit of taking the initiative, but he was also the first to come out. Wu Yi still advised him to hand over the materials in the box to the emperor and not to keep them privately. Then he should stay at home and try not to get involved in this matter.

In fact, if King Yong decided to tell the emperor about this, he should not open it after obtaining the feelings of all officials. After opening it and seeing the content that should not be seen, he would selectively report it. In the eyes of the emperor, it was somewhat disloyal.

Looking at King Yong's frown, I'm afraid he was also reprimanded when he met the emperor. This is no wonder. If he had told Wu Yi his thoughts earlier, he would not have been so passive, and now he dragged Wu Yi into the water.

King Yong was a little indecisive.

However, Prince Yong's original intention was probably to keep it privately, but he did not expect that the officials' affair was so explosive that he could not conceal it at all. He had to report it, which put him in such a passive position.
