Chapter 20 Apology
According to Zhao Meng's original plan, he would be the last two people to take the exam with Han Xu with the help of the invigilator.
Then, he would rush in front, pretend to be nervous, crush the crystal ball hard, and then, at the teacher's suggestion, he would try out the depth of Han Xu.
Everything has been going well so far in this plan, but just as Zhao Meng turned around, he saw Han Xu's abyss-like eyes.
Suddenly, Zhao Meng felt that his soul seemed to be stabbed by a sharp sword, and his mind kept roaring.
Immediately afterwards, the surrounding scenes began to distort and change.
He saw that he beat Han Xu to the point of vomiting blood with one palm and was seriously injured on the spot.
Amid the exclamation, he was controlled by his teacher, and soon, he was sent to the Ministry of Justice for maliciously injuring the son of King Han.
In the end, King Han was furious and their Zhao family was killed.
Wang Ran, who promised to give him countless benefits, refused to save him during the whole matter. In order to worry that he would give him a sacrifice, he even brought harm to his father a death sentence of collusion with the enemy and treason.
In just a short time, Zhao Meng saw his tragic ending like a flash. The scenes were extremely real. He even felt the jailer's thorny steel whip whip on his body, causing pain to convulsions.
When the picture finally freezes, he saw bloody heads on the school grounds, including his father, mother and brothers and sisters.
All the clans are spared.
A voice full of majesty sounded in the air: "It is to expose Wang Ran's viciousness, turn back and forth, or do your own thing, and take the life of the entire clan, which is in your thoughts."
In an instant, the picture was broken and the voices of others gradually became clear.
Zhao Meng felt that at this moment, he seemed to have traveled to the future. He believed that this must be the guidance given to him by the gods, and he could not bear to die an unjustly hero like him with a bright future.
So, his eyes became firm and he took steps towards Han Xu.
A sinister smile appeared on the corner of Wang Ran's mouth.
"Han Xu, I will make you arrogant in front of me, and you will be nice later."
However, the situation he expected did not happen. Zhao Meng walked to Han Xu and bowed down.
Han Xu quickly moved aside and said in surprise: "Young Master Zhao, what does this mean? To be honest, I don't want to compete with you in this palm. You are ranked first. After this palm, I will not have to go home and lie down for half a month."
Zhao Meng said: "Young Master Han misunderstood. I have no intention of offending you. This worship is to apologize to you."
"Apology? What apologies?"
Zhao Meng stood up straight, took a deep breath, turned around and said, "You don't know. Last night, Mr. Wang Ran came to the lower house and made great profits. He wanted me to hurt Mr. Han Xu in today's assessment. Fortunately, I woke up in time and did not cause any big mistakes."
Then, he said to Han Xu again: "I'm also confused for a while, I hope Mr. Han won't blame him."
"If you can turn back, what are the crimes of being punished by the traitor?" Han Xu said generously.
"You're talking nonsense!" Wang Ran roared angrily just as everyone was shocked.
He pushed the crowd away, walked up, and asked indignantly: "Zhao Meng, why did you slander me?"
Facing Wang Ran's questioning, Zhao Meng was still a little afraid, but when he thought of the scenes that appeared in his mind, he mustered up the courage.
He wanted to curry favor with Wang Ran in exchange for a good future, but it was related to the lives of the whole clan, and a fool also knew how to choose.
The majestic voice reminded him very well. If Han Xu didn't take action, he would have to expose Wang Ran's choice. Otherwise, the Zhao family would not be able to withstand Wang Ran's anger at all.
So, Zhao Meng said bravely: "Your Majesty, you have a noble status, how dare you slander you?"
"You fart, what reason do I have to let you do this?" Wang Ran argued that Zhao Meng's sudden rebellion was indeed unexpected.
This makes no sense at all. Before the assessment, the two of them said it well. In such a short period of time, Zhao Meng had no reason to betray.
But now is not the time to pursue the reasons. The key to the problem is how to pass the current level.
Zhao Meng said: "Young Master Wang, as we all know, because Qing'er, the flower courtesan of Wanhua Pavilion, is close to Mr. Han, so you have always held a grudge against him. How can you say there is no reason?"
At this time, Zhao Meng was also anxious. He didn't care whether it was wrong to talk about the two of them jealous of the brothel women on such occasions, but he just said it all.
Han Xu didn't care about the opinions of others. He was a famous wandering son and never cared about his reputation.
But Wang Ran was different. His face turned pale and he felt very embarrassed.
He clearly wanted to refute, but what Zhao Meng said made him unable to find any refutation.
Although the high-ranking officials in the court around did not intervene, they also spoke in a low voice.
They won't interfere in this matter, because once they intervene, it will be more than just a conflict between the younger generations.
But this does not affect their freedom of speech.
"You are very good, Zhao Meng, you remember this account for me." Wang Ran couldn't think of it and had to threaten.
At this time, Zhao Meng walked forward in two steps and bowed to Zhang Tianming: "Sir, please make the decision for your disciples."
Zhang Tianming's face was serious. It was just a matter of being small, but the young people were very brave and fierce, but everyone here had an extraordinary identity, especially Han Xu.
To put it bluntly, it was Wang Ran's conspiracy to poison King Han's son. This was to be handed over to the Ministry of Justice to convict, and he was also a hot potato in his hand.
Judging from the current situation, although there is no substantial evidence, everyone believes that what Zhao Meng said is true.
Therefore, how to deal with it depends on the opinions of the party involved.
If you really want to find out the truth, it will be of no benefit to the Wang family, Zhao family, or Jiuxiao Academy.
If another student is changed, he can use some means to make things worse, but Han Xu's son is King Han, and his sister is about to be granted a concubine, so the school really dare not threaten him.
"Han Xu, tell me." Zhang Tianming looked at Han Xu, and the reminder in his eyes was very obvious.
Han Xu also understands people, so how can he not see the deep meaning in Zhang Tianming's eyes?
He has been eating and drinking in the academy for so many years. Strictly speaking, he has slandered the academy, but the academy has always turned a blind eye and has not treated him anything. Although it was because of Han Li, Han Xu is also a person who knows how to repay his kindness.
So he said, "I think this is no big deal. After all, I am not hurt. Please don't take the jokes between us younger generations to heart."
After saying that, he turned to Zhao Meng and said, "Young Master Zhao is ranked first-class at a young age. He is so sincere and humble to others. He will have a bright future in the future. I am really envious."
"As for the words that Mr. Wang threatened you just now, I must have been in a hurry and said nothing. Otherwise, if you or your family will suffer from some illnesses and pains in the future, will others doubt him?"
"You are right, Prince?"
Wang Ran clenched his fists in anger, but he couldn't do it. He could only let Han Xu say sarcastic words. He gritted his teeth and said, "What Mr. Han said is very true."
Han Xu smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "As for Miss Qing'er, it's because you are not charming enough, so she ignores you. Instead of being jealous of me all day long, it's better to find the reason from yourself."
"However, I'd better advise you to forget her, after all, she is already mine."
"A man is more important to have self-knowledge."
After saying that, Han Xu ignored Wang Ran, who looked messy, and pushed away the crowd and walked out.
This time is too late. Han Xu still has to go to Han Luoling's villa to download the martial arts. It is only two days before the wedding. It is still a bit stressful to download the second level of Mirror Flower and Water Moon, and you can't waste a day.
