Chapter 66 Memorials
The green-haired lion demon was slammed heavily into a rocky ravine, letting out a low, humiliating growl.

Chen Guangrui walked forward expressionlessly, bent down and picked up a dry twig from the side.

He met the venomous gaze without flinching, and with the tip of a branch, with obvious mockery, gently nudged the blue-maned lion's hind leg.

"Humph,"

Chen Guangrui let out a soft, ambiguous snort, his tone icy.
"No wonder he disguised himself as a eunuch to sneak into the palace and conceal his identity. Turns out he's a castrated man!"

"Roar!!!"

This clear insult instantly pierced the lion spirit's last line of patience! Its effeminate face suddenly twisted and deformed, unleashing a furious roar that could shatter mountains!
"Insects! Once I am freed, I will make you suffer every torture imaginable, so that you will neither live nor die!"

Chen Guangrui casually tossed the branch aside, clapped his hands, and his mockery deepened.

"Save your breath. Ever since you instigated those two idiots to kill me outside the tavern, you beast, haven't you been trying to kill me? Trying to scare me? Too late!"

He changed the subject, his voice becoming somber.

"Speak! What exactly are you trying to do by infiltrating Chang'an and the palace?"

The fury in the blue lion's eyes was almost tangible, but it kept its mouth shut, looking at Chen Guangrui with the coldest gaze, its lion lips pressed tightly together, not uttering a single word.

Wei Zheng stood to the side, his brows furrowed and his hands clenched slightly in his sleeves.

Chen Guangrui was not surprised by its resistance, and said to himself:

“Even if you don’t say it, I can guess. The theft of palace documents a few days ago, wasn’t that your doing? A substitution? No, to be precise… it was alteration! And,”

Chen Guangrui's tone carried a hint of insightful certainty.

"You've succeeded, you've modified it successfully, haven't you?"

The blue-maned lion remained as silent as a mountain, its growls escaping even lower.

"What, you think you can get away with it just by changing it?"

Chen Guangrui's voice suddenly rose, carrying a hint of disdainful certainty.

"You think what you erased is gone forever?"

He paused, then slowly crouched down, bringing his face close to the lion demon's sinister face, his eyes flashing like lightning.
"I can tell you right now what was originally written in that document you altered and then painstakingly put back in, regarding Yin Kaishan's daughter, Yin Wenjiao... her entry into the palace back then!"

Chen Guangrui deliberately dragged out his words, each one like a heavy hammer blow to the air:
"'Sitting in the pavilion, chatting and laughing,' that's the original quote. But the four characters you erased afterward are in your annotation..."

He sat up abruptly, uttering each word clearly and distinctly, like a thunderclap:

"With a dignified and solemn appearance, he expounds the Buddhist teachings!"

boom! ! !
These eight words seemed to possess some terrifying magic, instantly striking the deepest secret of the Green-haired Lion!

Its beastly eyes, which always burned with a violent and sinister flame, froze the moment it heard those four words! In their place was an indescribable, bone-deep shock!

The enormous lion's head instinctively tilted back, its mane standing on end in horror, and its massive body even trembled uncontrollably! It seemed as if it was recognizing this young, mortal scholar for the first time.

"……What?!"

At the same time, it was Wei Zheng who exclaimed in surprise! His white beard trembled slightly from the intense shock in his heart, and his eyes were filled with astonishment and suspicion as he looked at Chen Guangrui. He didn't know how Chen Guangrui knew the contents of the documents, and he suppressed his curiosity, but at this moment, it was not convenient to say more.

One can only marvel at how unbelievable these methods are!
A deathly silence fell over the mountain valley. Only the huge, disbelieving eyes of the blue-haired lion stared intently at Chen Guangrui's calm face, looking utterly lost.

Wei Zheng snapped back to his senses, his gaze becoming unusually serious and sharp. Without further hesitation, he stepped forward decisively, forming a hand seal with one hand and chanting incantations.

"receive!"

The gray cloth bag opened again, and an invisible force instantly enveloped the blue lion, who was still in shock and had not yet recovered from his disorientation. The Binding Immortal Rope flashed with golden light, and the huge lion demon, as if caught in a vortex, was suddenly pulled into the bag with a "whoosh," and its roar came to an abrupt end.

Wei Zheng grabbed the cloth bag back and held it tightly in his hand. He glanced at Chen Guangrui with a complicated look, and without saying a word, grabbed Chen Guangrui's arm.

"go!"

The ground beneath my feet instantly turned into a swamp, and the familiar feeling of being squeezed and enveloped came back to me!
……

puff!
The two had returned to Wei Zheng's study.

Wei Zheng's face was ashen.

The eight characters "solemn and majestic appearance, expounding Buddhist principles" displayed by Chen Guangrui are incredibly informative!
Especially since the target is the daughter of the current prime minister, Yin Kaishan! This is definitely not as simple as just a monster causing trouble!
An answer is already obvious:
Yin Kaishan's daughter, Yin Wenjiao... has a problem! And a serious one at that!

The Buddhist sect had already been laying the groundwork in Chang'an through this young girl for countless years!

He couldn't fathom the deeper intentions of Buddhism. But their hidden methods were crystal clear!

We can't delay any longer! Wei Zheng's eyes sharpened as he made his decision.

He quickly walked to the table and took out two specially made jade slips and talismans.

The first document was a memorial to the Jade Emperor of Heaven. Wei Zheng's fingers flew across the paper, his divine thoughts flowing into it:

"Your subject, Cao Guan Wei Zheng, respectfully reports: There are evil spirits lurking in the palace of Chang'an, causing chaos and slaughtering the people. I have already taken them into custody and they are now being executed."

Chen Guangrui discovered that this memorial was addressed to the Jade Emperor, stating only that a demon had been captured and was to be executed on the spot, without mentioning any connection between the demon and Buddhism.

The second memorial was a letter that went directly to the Tushita Palace outside the Thirty-Three Heavens! Wei Zheng's expression became even more solemn. He wrote down the whole story in detail, especially the fact that the Buddhist sect deliberately concealed the documents in the palace, as well as the contents of the documents. He explained it very clearly.

Although they didn't make their own judgment, the meaning was already quite clear.

Chen Guangrui watched Wei Zheng the whole time, and only breathed a sigh of relief after Wei Zheng sent the letter out using a secret method.

After all this time, there's finally a result. The one in the Thirty-Third Heaven has learned of the Buddhist sect's arrangements.

After doing all this, Wei Zheng looked at Chen Guangrui, who had been waiting silently, his face showing a hint of fatigue, but also a sense of relief and determination.

"Hopefully, this will attract the attention of that person. But Guangrui, don't have too high hopes. In recent years, Buddhism has been making frequent moves and laying out plans in various places. The Heavenly Court... may not make a big fuss over such a 'small matter' in Chang'an. A letter like this alone may not be enough."

Chen Guangrui took a deep breath and bowed respectfully to Wei Zheng. He understood Wei Zheng's meaning and knew that Wei Zheng's sending such a direct and to-the-point letter was the maximum he, as a "new official in charge," could do, and that Wei Zheng was genuinely trying to help him.

A touch of warmth and a deeper worry intertwined in his heart at the same time.

We need to add more code to this information.
