Chapter 471

After Yu Chihuan was shocked, he stared at Changsun Wuji and asked, "Changsun Wuji, why did you apologize to me for doing nothing wrong?"

Changsun Wuji immediately replied: "Prime Minister Yuchi, I shouldn't have questioned Wu Meiniang's quick-drying cement in front of His Majesty today. I apologize to you for this matter now?"

"Changsun Wuji, you questioned Wu Meiniang's quick-drying cement in front of His Majesty today?"

Yu Chihuan was furious and said, "If you don't give a reasonable explanation, I'll beat you!"

After all, Yu Chihuan clenched his small fist and threatened Changsun Wuji.

Wu Meiniang is just a ten-year-old girl, and her eldest grandson Wuji is already old, since she questioned Wu Meiniang in front of Li Er!
As Wu Meiniang's teacher, Yu Chihuan can't be angry?

Seeing Yuchi Huan's angry face, Changsun Wuji immediately faltered. He explained: "Young Prime Minister Yuchi, the situation is like this. Today, the old man recommends Changsun Chong to His Majesty as a Bachelor of the Royal Academy..."

Next, Changsun Wuji told Yuchihuan in detail about his request to Li Er for an official in the morning.

After hearing Changsun Wuji's explanation, Yu Chihuan was immediately speechless.

Yu Chihuan couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Changsun Wuji, Changsun Chong will definitely inherit your title in the future, why do you question Wu Meiniang's talent for a bachelor's position?"

Changsun Wuji recommended Changsun Chong to Li Er as a bachelor of the Royal Academy, which is no problem at all.

Because officials above the third grade of the Tang Dynasty have a recommendation quota!

Yuchihuan is also qualified to recommend other scholars to become officials!
However, Yuchihuan has never used this recommendation right.

Changsun Wuji's mistake was to use Wu Meiniang as a shield for Changsun Chong.

In order to achieve his goal, Changsun Wuji dared to question Wu Meiniang's scientific research ability!
Yuchihuan was very angry, but for the sake of Li's second brother-in-law, he decided to forgive his eldest grandson Wuji once today!
Changsun Wuji was questioned by Yuchi Huan, and he suddenly felt guilty: "Little Prime Minister Yuchi, I apologize to you today, please forgive me for my recklessness!"

Yu Chihuan patted Changsun Wuji on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Changsun Wuji, this time I don't have to pursue your fault, but I don't allow another time, otherwise I'll beat you up!"

"The old man promises that there will be no next time!"

Changsun Wuji was forgiven by Yu Chihuan, and immediately smiled, and no longer frown.

Yu Chihuan then sent Changsun Wuji back to the Shibu team.

Changsun Wuji didn't dare to neglect, and immediately obediently stood in front of the officials of the Ministry of History and waited for Li Er's arrival.

Seeing that Yu Chihuan didn't beat Changsun Wuji today, Wei Zheng, the official censor, was disappointed and said, "Yuchihuan didn't do anything today? When did he change his sex?"

"Lord Wei, even grandson Wuji dare not offend Yuchihuan, should we impeach Yuchihuan today for recommending Wu Meiniang as an official?"

Suddenly, a censor quietly asked Wei Zheng for his opinion.

Wei Zheng said solemnly: "Your Majesty canonized Wu Meiniang as a Bachelor of the Royal Academy. This is a treasonous act. Of course, I want to impeach Your Majesty!"

"The officer understands!"

The imperial censor immediately prepared to impeach Li Er and Yu Chihuan in court.

And Li Er, who was waiting in the back hall of the Xuanzheng Hall, saw that Changsun Wuji and Yu Chihuan hadn't clashed, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, "Let's go to court!"

"Slaves follow orders!"

The prince did not dare to neglect, and immediately led the way.

In a blink of an eye, Wang Gonggong and Li Er appeared in front of all civil and military officials!
"Wei Chen sees His Majesty!"

Civil and military officials then paid homage to Li Er in unison.

Li Erda sat on the dragon chair with a golden sword, and said majesticly: "Everyone loves you!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

All civil and military officials straightened their bodies in unison, preparing for today's morning court meeting.

Holding the Buddha's dust in his hand, the prince stepped forward, pulled the duck and said in a loud voice: "There is something to play, and there is nothing to retreat to the court!"

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

Wei Zheng was the first to come out and play!
When Li Er saw Wei Zheng coming out, he immediately showed displeasure and said, "Wei Zheng, what do you have to tell me today?"

Wei Zheng said awe-inspiringly: "Your Majesty, I am going to impeach you and Yuchihuan today!"

Li Er had expected that Yu Chi Yan Guan would impeach Yu Chi Huan today and recommended Wu Meiniang to become an official.

But Li Er didn't expect Wei Zheng to impeach him too!

People are better than God!

Yuchi Huan had an indifferent attitude, because Wei Zheng's impeachment was nothing more than a trivial matter to him.

Li Er pointed at Wei Zheng and said seriously: "Wei Zheng, tell me the reason for impeaching me and Xiao Yuchi?"

Wei Zheng said without changing his face: "Your Majesty, I impeach you for breaking the ancestral rules and canonize Wu Meiniang as a Bachelor of the Royal Academy. This is against the laws of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Er took the case and said: "Wei Zheng, Wu Meiniang helped the imperial court develop quick-drying cement, which benefits the country and the people. Is it wrong for me to confer Wu Meiniang?"

Wei Zheng disagreed: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, how can there be a woman as a bachelor? Wu Meiniang was conferred by you as a bachelor of the Royal Academy, which is an act of treason."

Li Er pointed to Yuchi Huan, and said: "Wei Zheng, Wu Meiniang was recommended by Xiao Yuchi to be a Bachelor of the Royal Academy. I'm just pushing the boat with the flow, and it's just the beauty of an adult!"

Yuchi Huan immediately stepped forward and echoed, "Wei Zheng, Your Majesty is right, Wu Meiniang was recommended by my minister as a Bachelor of the Royal Academy!"

Seeing Yu Chihuan coming out to help him take the blame, Li Er immediately showed satisfaction.

Wei Zheng stared at Yuchihuan, and said seriously: "Yuchihuan, I advise you to take care of yourself!"

Yuchihuan replied carelessly: "Wei Zheng, I have a clear conscience, why should I be afraid of you?"

Wei Zheng immediately raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, my minister's impeachment of Yu Chihuan by recommending Wu Meiniang as an official broke the laws of the Tang Dynasty. Please take it back!"

"Please take back your life, Your Majesty!"

The censors at the Yushitai immediately came out in unison and forced Li Er to go to the palace!

This time even those old censors came out to support Wei Zheng's advice!

Afterwards, many civil servants came forward to support Wei Zheng!

They want Li Er to remove Wu Meiniang as a Bachelor of the Royal Academy!

Suddenly, almost half of the officials in the Xuanzheng Palace stood up to support Wei Zheng.

Only generals like Cheng Yaojin, Duan Zhixuan, and Qin Qiong didn't get involved in this matter.

Among the civil officials, only Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, and Changsun Shunde, Li Er's confidantes, did not come out to support Wei Zheng.

Li Er didn't expect so many officials to support Wei Zheng today, he immediately looked at Yuchihuan, hoping that Yuchihuan would help him out.

Yuchi Huan immediately came out and said: "Your Majesty, you don't avoid relatives when you are a virtuous person, and I oppose the dismissal of Wu Meiniang!"

"My humble minister seconded the Young Chancellor Yuchi!"

Xu Jingzong immediately stood up to support Yuchihuan.

"At the end of the day, he will second the Young Chancellor Yuchi!"

Then Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Li Jing and other generals also stood up to support Yuchihuan.

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Changsun Shunde also came out to refute Wei Zheng and support Li Er!
Those civil servants attached to Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling also stood up to support Li Er!
In a blink of an eye, more than half of the officials in the Xuanzheng Palace supported Li Er.

The impeachment of Li Er by Wei Zheng and his censors immediately became a joke!

Wei Zheng's face was livid, he didn't expect that literati like Changsun Wuji would not speak for him!
