Merits and Demerits; Wuji’s First Show

Prime Minister Zuo was closing his eyes. He didn’t want to mess with anybody. [I don’t want to mess with the king, nor do I want to mess with Ye Nantian. I certainly won’t mess with the scholars group. One mistake and I will offend them all… The best option is to play a fool…]

At this moment, he heard the king.

He quivered.

[God damn it! Why me again? Was I born to be framed or something? Why is it so difficult to keep myself out of shxts?]

All the officials and the king were staring at him right now.

He looked extremely terrible at the moment.

The king asked him, so he had to answer. He had to choose a side now. If he tried to talk vaguely, he would offend them all. What would he choose then?

If he chose to support Ye Nantian and the king, he was against the scholar group. The other way around he would offend the king.

[What should I do?]

[I can’t do that and not this either!]
