Chapter 20 Apology

According to Zhao Meng's original plan, he and Han Xu would be the last two people to take the exam with the help of the invigilator. ]|I{•------» «------•}I|[

Then, he would get ahead, pretend to be nervous, crush the crystal ball hard, and then follow the teacher's suggestion and give Han Xu a slap in the face to test Han Xu's depth.

So far, everything in this plan has gone smoothly. However, the moment Zhao Meng turned around, he saw Han Xu's abyss-like eyes.

Suddenly, Zhao Meng felt as if his soul had been stabbed by a sharp sword, and there was a constant roar in his head.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding scenes began to distort and change.

He saw that he had slapped Han Xu until he vomited blood and was seriously injured on the spot.

Amidst the exclamations, he was controlled by the teacher. Soon, he was sent to the Ministry of Punishment for maliciously seriously injuring the son of King Han.

Finally, the King of Han became angry and the whole Zhao family was executed.

Wang Ran, who had promised him countless benefits, refused to save him during the whole matter. He even added insult to injury and charged his father with the death penalty of collaboration with the enemy and treason in order to worry that he would betray himself.

In a short period of time, Zhao Meng saw his tragic ending like a fleeting glance. Those scenes were so real that he even felt the jailer's spiked steel whip hitting his body, causing him to convulse in pain.

When the picture finally settled, he saw bloody heads arranged in a row on the school field, including his father, mother, brothers and sisters.

No one in the whole clan was spared.

A voice full of majesty sounded in the air: "It depends on you to expose Wang Ran's viciousness and turn around, or to go your own way and risk the lives of the entire clan."

In an instant, the picture was fragmented, and the voices of others gradually became clearer.

Zhao Meng felt as if he had traveled to the future at this moment. He believed that this must be the guidance given to him by the gods. He could not bear the injustice of a young hero with a bright future like him dying unjustly.

As a result, his eyes became firm and he took steps towards Han Xu.

A sinister smile appeared on Wang Ran's lips.

"Han Xu, I will let you be arrogant in front of this young master. I will look after you later."

However, what he expected did not happen. Zhao Meng walked up to Han Xu and bowed down.

Han Xu quickly stepped aside and said in surprise: "Mr. Zhao, what do you mean? To be honest, I don't want to face this slap with you. You are already in the first rank. After this slap, I can't go home." "Lie down for half a month."

Zhao Meng said: "Young Master Han has misunderstood. I have no intention of offending you. This bow is to apologize to you."

"Apologise? What are you apologizing for?"

Zhao Meng stood up straight, took a deep breath, turned around and said, "You guys don't know. Last night, Mr. Wang Ran came to my mansion and promised a huge profit. He wanted me to injure Mr. Han Xu in today's assessment. Fortunately, I woke up in time before I made a big mistake.”

Then, he said to Han Xu again: "I was also confused for a moment. I hope Mr. Han will not blame him."

"It's a trivial matter, but if you can turn around and not be provoked by traitors, what's your crime?" Han Xu said magnanimously.

"You're talking nonsense!" Wang Ran roared when everyone was shocked.

He pushed aside the crowd, stepped forward, and asked angrily: "Zhao Meng, why did you slander me?"

Facing Wang Ran's questioning, Zhao Meng was still a little afraid, but as soon as he thought of the pictures that appeared in his mind, he mustered up his courage.

He wanted to curry favor with Wang Ran in exchange for a better future, but the life of the entire clan was at stake, and even a fool knew how to choose.

The majestic voice reminded him rightly. If he didn't take action against Han Xu, the only option was to expose Wang Ran. Otherwise, the Zhao family would simply not be able to withstand Wang Ran's anger.

So, Zhao Meng bravely said: "Master Wang, you have a noble status, how can I dare to slander you?"

"You fart, what reason do I have for you to do this?" Wang Ran argued. Zhao Meng's sudden rebellion was really something he didn't expect.

This makes no sense at all. Before the assessment, the two of them had agreed that in such a short period of time, Zhao Meng had no reason to rebel.

But now is not the time to investigate the reasons. The key to the problem is how to get through the current hurdle.

Zhao Meng said: "Mr. Wang, as we all know, because the oiran Qing'er of Wanhua Pavilion is close to Mr. Han, you have always held a grudge against him. How can you say there is no reason?"

At this time, Zhao Meng was also anxious. Regardless of whether it was inappropriate to talk about the two of them being jealous of the brothel girl in this situation, he just said it in one go.

Han Xu didn't care about other people's opinions. He was known as a wanderer, and he never cared about reputation.

But Wang Ran was different. His face turned blue and white, and he was very embarrassed.

He clearly wanted to refute, but what Zhao Meng said made him unable to find any words to refute.

Although the high-ranking officials in the DPRK and Central Government around them did not intervene, they were still discussing in low voices.

They will not interfere in this matter, because once they intervene, it will not just be a conflict between juniors.

But this does not affect their mutual freedom of speech.

"You are very good, Zhao Meng, please remember this account." Wang Ran couldn't think of words, so he could only threaten.

At this time, Zhao Meng stepped forward in three steps and bowed to Zhang Tianming: "Vice Dean, please make the decision for this disciple."

Zhang Tianming's face was solemn. This was a trivial matter. It was just a brave fight between young people, but everyone here had an unusual identity, especially Han Xu.

If we talk about it more seriously, it is Wang Ran who conspired to poison King Han's son. This is a matter that will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for conviction. It is also a hot potato in his hands.

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 opinion of Han Xu, the person involved.

If we really want to get to the bottom of it, it will be of no benefit to the Wang family, Zhao family or Jiuxiao Academy.

If it were other students, they could still use some means to make the matter smaller, but Han Xu's father is the King of Han, and his sister is about to be crowned a concubine, so the academy really doesn't dare to threaten him.

"Han Xu, tell me." Zhang Tianming looked at Han Xu, the reminder in his eyes was obvious.

Han Xu is also a sensible person, how could he not see the deep meaning in Zhang Tianming's eyes.

He had been eating and drinking in the academy for so many years. Strictly speaking, he had brought discredit to the academy, but the academy had always turned a blind eye and didn't do anything to him, even though it was because of Han Li. , but Han Xu is also a person who knows how to reciprocate kindness.

So he said: "I think it's not a big deal. After all, I'm not hurt. Elders, please don't take it to heart about the jokes among us juniors."

After speaking, he turned to Zhao Meng and said, "Young Master Zhao is ranked first-class at a young age. He treats others with such sincerity and humility. He will definitely have a bright future in the future. I am really envious of him."

"As for the words that Mr. Wang threatened you just now, he must have said it out of necessity and just said it. Otherwise, if you or your family suffer from some kind of illness in the future, wouldn't others be suspicious of him?"

"Are you right, Prince?"

Wang Ran was so angry that he clenched his fists, but he couldn't get angry. He could only let Han Xu speak sarcastically. He gritted his teeth and said, "What Mr. Han said is absolutely true."

Han Xu smiled, 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 advise you to forget her. After all, she is already mine."

"People need to be self-aware."

After saying that, Han Xu ignored the messy Wang Ran, pushed aside the crowd and walked out.

This time can't be wasted. Han Xu still has to go to Han Luoling's other courtyard to download the exercises. There are only two days before the wedding. It is still a bit stressful to download the second level of Jing Hua Shui Yue. He can't waste a day.
