In fact, those with keen eyes could clearly see.
The Emperor had not spared Historian Wang.
Lately, in his official duties, Historian Wang was frequently set up to make errors.
Not only was he fined three years' salary, but he was also punished with the "walking penalty."
This punishment meant that for three months, he was prohibited from riding in a carriage, and no matter where he went, he had to walk there!
As a historian, his role was to record significant events of the current dynasty.
He couldn't even manage to get there in time, let alone complete his duties!
Thus, lately, Historian Wang's life had been very bleak.
Some people began to quietly speculate in their hearts.
Could it be that Historian Wang, unable to withstand the consequences of offending the Emperor, decided to take this desperate gamble?
As he spoke out loud, was he betting that the Emperor wouldn't demand his life?
Bai Xilie had clearly thought of this as well.
