Li Lin has not confronted him directly at all.
Instead, they brought up the old issue again.
This left him momentarily at a loss for words to dissuade him.
"General Wang, I respect you, but that doesn't mean I fear you or the Wang family power behind you. Today, Wu Jun will definitely be dismissed from his post. Not only will he be dismissed, but I will also investigate what he did during his more than 20 years in office, whether he committed any crimes or offenses. Once discovered, he will be severely punished!"
Li Lin's tone became increasingly forceful.
Wang Li felt extremely ashamed because of the old incident being brought up again. He used to be so disrespectful to him, but now he needed his help. There was a strong psychological contrast between the two.
"Li Lin, you bastard, dare to spout nonsense again!"
Enraged, Wu Jun drew his sword and brazenly lunged at Li Lin.
According to custom, Wu Jun was not allowed to bring a sharp sword into the Court of Justice to work, but today was an exception because Wang Li came with him. Wang Li was the Right General and had the authority to carry sharp weapons.
Therefore, neither of them questioned Wu Jun.
Unexpected.
At this point, he actually launched a public attack.
His colleagues all shook their heads and sighed. Being dismissed from office by Li Lin was nothing more than losing a bowl and chopsticks, but now, he had openly attempted to assassinate the prime minister in front of so many people.

Even if Prime Minister Li Lin doesn't care, the people in the Court of Justice will. This is no joke.
Today, I dare to assassinate the current prime minister.
What do I want to do tomorrow?
That's something I never even dared to imagine.
"How dare you!"
Zhang Liang swiftly drew his sword, parrying Wu Jun's attack with a single strike. He then unleashed the skills of a wandering swordsman, defeating Wu Jun in just three moves and seizing the weapon from Wu Jun's hand.
"Zifang, thank you very much!"
"Grand Tutor, you flatter me. It was nothing more than a small favor for me."
Zhang Liang was very modest. Even if he didn't make a move, the guards around him would arrive, so Wu Jun wouldn't be able to cause any big trouble.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
"Hmph, take Wu Jun away. Where is Meng Yi? You saw what just happened. Do you understand how Wu Jun should be punished?"
"Understood!"
Meng Yi nodded, and then led his men to drag Wu Jun away.
However, at this moment, Wang Li unexpectedly drew his sword and ended Wu Jun's life with a single strike.
"Ah, nephew, you..."
