The Abandoned Scion

Song Chi transmigrated, becoming the son of the reigning Chief Grand Secretary. He aspired to a life of beautiful wives and concubines, an idle playboy who muddled through life, but instead became ...

Chapter 228 The farce ends, Song Ming loses his reputation

The whole place was silent, and Han Yuanzheng's curses could be heard clearly.

The Jinyiwei who was holding him asked, "Boss, why don't we gag him?"

"No need." Deng Gang walked in front but deliberately slowed down his pace, walking slower so that Han Yuanzheng could scold him longer.

The eunuch who holds the seal is known as the chief minister of the inner court, and Song Shiwen is the chief minister.

Both of them held high positions of power and were close ministers to the emperor.

They seem to have a good relationship, but there are also overt and covert struggles for power and profit.

Right now, Han Yuan is scolding Song Ming, who is also a stain on the Prime Minister.

Everyone knows that the Prime Minister often talks about his son. Song Ming has many labels, such as young scholar, little poet in the capital, genius, etc.

Now Han Yuan is determined to uncover Song Ming's true past.

Anyway, he didn't think about coming out, and didn't even think about staying alive. He certainly wouldn't say anything he shouldn't say, but he had no scruples about scolding Song Ming.

Without Song Ming, how could he have ended up like this?

"You even went to Jiangzhou to participate in the literary gathering. Can you write poetry? Can you write poetry? You knew the test questions in advance and prepared in advance, but even so, you still lost to Song Chi."

"Don't think I didn't know. The topic of the final performance of the literary gathering was suddenly changed to the simplest poem about plum blossoms, and you couldn't write it because you hadn't prepared in advance."

Upon hearing this, the whole audience burst into an uproar.

In order to save the reputation of the Prime Minister, the process of the Wangjiang Tower competition was never leaked. Many scholars and students had no idea how Song Ming lost, and now it has been exposed by Han Yuanzheng.

Han Yuanzheng is not an ordinary person, so he naturally has ways to know.

"Do you know the art of war? You're competing with Song Chi in the art of war, but you don't even know the most basic common sense. Once the test questions change, you won't know anything."

"You knew the answer from the very first level of the literary meeting. On the fifth floor of Wangjiang Tower, everyone was on your side, but in the end, you were still useless."

"Slow down." Deng Gang ordered.

Not to mention that he was very excited after listening to it.

"You're only sixteen years old, a young scholar. If you had passed the exam based on your true talent and knowledge, I would have taken your last name. Yet you shamelessly claim to be talented. You're truly shameless."

Han Yuanzheng became more and more excited as he spoke, venting his dissatisfaction.

The people around were stunned. They didn't expect that the son of the Prime Minister would be like this.

"Wait, shouldn't he be scolding you at this time? Why is he scolding Song Ming?"

Gu Ronghua was a little overwhelmed and he really couldn't understand it.

Song Chi said calmly, "Because the person who really caused him to this point was not me, but Song Ming."

"ah."

Tang Yan, Fang Yingwu and others looked strange, they knew there was a lot of inside information.

Song Chi has already participated in the court struggle.

Being on bad terms with Han Yuanzheng is a matter of different stances, but it is an indisputable fact that Han Yuanzheng has a good family background. Now that he has been openly taken away by the Jinyiwei, this has already explained a lot of problems.

"The only thing that makes you better than Song Chi is that you are lucky. You are the son of the Prime Minister. Without this status, you are nothing."

Han Yuanzheng's voice gradually faded away and he was taken away.

In the crowd, Song Ming, hidden in a wide robe, had a dark face. He left Wangjiang Tower and quietly came to the gate of the academy, but he didn't expect to see such a thing.

He was already criticized for not winning the championship, and now after Han Yuanzheng said this, everyone knew that he was just a fame-seeker, with no knowledge and no talent, and his reputation was completely ruined.

With so many people at the gate of Nandu Academy, it won't take long for these rumors to spread throughout the city, or even to the capital.

No matter what he does, he cannot stop the gossips and will inevitably end up losing his reputation.

Song Ming regretted it. If he had known this would happen, he should not have come to Jiangzhou City.

But the capital is in chaos now, and his father wants him to stay out of the spotlight, and also to suppress Song Chi's path to advancement...

He never expected Han Yuanzheng to be like this.

It was Song Chi who made you like this, but you took your anger out on me. What an ungrateful person you are.

You deserve to die.

And there are these Jinyiwei eunuchs, they are just evil-minded, they deserve to die.

Song Ming cursed inwardly and left quietly.

"I'm afraid the reputation of the Prime Minister will be ruined." Song Chi smiled faintly.

He didn't expect Han Yuanzheng to do such a thing. It was really unexpected.

It can be imagined that Han Yuanzheng should have been dissatisfied with Song Ming for a long time, but he did not dare to show it before. Now that he was treated as a pawn and was captured by the Jinyiwei, he was just dissatisfied.

Song Chi estimated that Han Yuanzheng might have an accident along the way.

Song Shiwen would not let these insiders come to the capital alive.

The evil deeds of local dignitaries in harming the people were done by the Han family and have nothing to do with the Prime Minister. The Han family will bear all the responsibility and sacrifice the Han family of Ji County to preserve the main family in the capital.

The identity of the person behind Song Shiwen will never be revealed.

Now Song Chi wondered if there was someone behind Song Shiwen...

The farce is finally over.

Not long after the Jinyiwei left, the crowd gradually dispersed. They came because of the bet between Han Yuanzheng and Song Chi. Now that Han Yuanzheng was arrested, the bet naturally no longer existed.

But everyone knew that something big must have happened.
