Wu Wang was handsomely rewarded by the Emperor for being severely injured while saving his life.
He not only received many rewards of gold, silver, and jewels, but was also promoted to Chief Eunuch.
As such, he and Zuo Ji became the two highest-ranking eunuchs in the Imperial Palace. But he was younger than Zuo Ji, which meant he was destined to go much further in the future.
The timing of this assassination was far too convenient. It not only allowed Wu Wang to win the Emperor's trust but also disrupted Li Ji's plans.
Li Ji had originally planned to just pin some crime on Wu Wang.
That was certainly out of the question now.
Wu Wang had just saved the Emperor, making him a man of great merit. If Li Ji were to make a move against him at a time like this, the Emperor would certainly not stand idly by.
The situation had suddenly become tricky.
Li Ji went to the Imperial Palace to visit the Emperor.
