Chapter 359 Today she will have fun with them
"Please collect the young masters' bags and open them!"
At Shen Zhao's command, the guards of the General's Mansion immediately walked towards Chu Zhuangyuan and the other two.
Seeing this, the old patriarch quickly said, "Mu'er, enough is enough."
"Don't hurt your family for an outsider."
The old patriarch sighed and said, "Mu'er, even if Yu Zihuan is innocent or not, he has nothing to do with the three top scholars. It was Yu Zihuan who stole the paper from another student, and it was the owner of Yunliu Bookstore who personally testified that he did not copy books for Yunliu Bookstore."
Ji Yuan was afraid that Prince Zhong would be persuaded by this old man, so he said angrily:
"Old man, what you said is really unpleasant to hear. What do you mean it has nothing to do with them? If it had nothing to do with them, why would they keep pressing Zihuan and destroying his reputation everywhere?"
"What's with that? Even if Yu Zihuan is innocent or not, stop saying that kind of bullshit. My Zihuan is innocent. He's just been framed by some bitches."
The old patriarch's eyes widened with anger.
He is going to die!
Accuse him of this.
"Sir, I am the patriarch of the Chu family and Mu'er's great-uncle. The three champions are Mu'er's cousins. This is a family affair of our Chu family. Please don't interfere."
He hoped that this adult could remain rational, and he didn't want Mu'er to teach him a lesson.
It also reminds him that he is helping the wrong person.
"Are you threatening me?" Ji Yuan sneered.
"I am not afraid of threats. The prince has already issued an order. Please hand over the bags."
Ji Yuan was tactful enough not to say that you and the prince are cousins, and you don’t know how many generations you have been cousins.
As far as he knew, Chu Mu's father was the only son of their lineage, and these people had no close relationship with Chu Mu at all.
On the contrary, Yu Zihuan is different. He is the prince's cousin.
He is hundreds of times more closely related to them than the Chu family. He really thinks that he is a big shot just because he has the surname Chu.
Don't even look at how much you weigh.
"Mu'er, do you want to watch others bully your cousins and make trouble in your house?" The old patriarch had already stopped and asked Chu Zhuangyuan to worship the adult in front of him as his teacher.
Of course, he didn't speak in a good tone.
The adult in front of him was obviously helping Yu Zihuan.
Why should he save face for him in this case?
Chen Zhao raised his eyelids slightly, "I'm afraid the old patriarch doesn't know the identity of this adult yet. It's also my fault that I didn't introduce him to you."
"This gentleman's surname is Ji and his given name is Yuan."
When Chen Zhao mentioned Ji Yuan's name, he clearly saw a trace of panic on the faces of Chu Zhuangyuan and others.
Who would have thought that this rugged-looking man would be a scholar of the Hanlin Academy.
And it was Lord Ji Yuanji who had served as the chief examiner of the imperial examinations twice.
Is it too late for them to apologize and regret now?
"A Hanlin scholar is a third-rank official." Shen Zhao deliberately gasped.
Today she will have some fun with these scumbags.
The old patriarch took a breath of cold air. The person he had just offended was a third-rank official.
And he is from the Hanlin Academy.
Isn't this going to cost him his life?
In his heart, he secretly blamed Chu Mu, knowing how important this adult's identity was to the top scholar.
He didn't even remind him and watched them completely offend this adult.
And Yu Zihuan was so lucky that he was noticed by Lord Ji and accepted as his student.
Without Shen Zhao saying anything else, Chu Zhuangyuan was the first to open his bag.
"Excuse me, sir. I have no grudge against Zihuan, so I won't make things difficult for him."
"I was just about to hand the bag over to the guards at the General's Mansion, but was interrupted by the Scholar-in-Chief before I could do anything."
"Now the students will open their bags."
A trace of resentment flashed across Chu Tanhua's face. Chu Zhuangyuan was putting all the blame on him.
Although he wanted to expose the true face of this scumbag right now, he swallowed his resentment when he thought that his family still had to rely on the clan.
When he becomes successful, sooner or later he will make those who have bullied him kneel on the ground and lick his toes.
Chu Zhuangyuan very tactfully opened the bundle and took out the books inside. He was very respectful to Ji Yuan and presented them with both hands, saying:
"These are the books I bought from Yunliu Bookstore. Please take a look, sir."
Ji Yuan took the book from Chu Zhuangyuan's hand, and he had no good impression of this seemingly handsome young man.
When he opened the book, he found that the handwriting was exactly the same as Yu Zihuan's, even the unique analysis was the same.
These are enough to prove that Yu Zihuan did copy books in Yunliu Bookstore and he was indeed wronged.
"Look carefully at this book and see if it was copied by Zihuan."
Even an illiterate person can tell that the handwriting is exactly the same, without any difference.
Chu Zhuangyuan was the first to react and stepped forward to hold Yu Zihuan's hand.
He apologized, "Zihuan has been wronged over the years. Why didn't you produce such strong evidence back then? You have been insulted for no reason all these years."
Yu Zihuan withdrew his hand from Chu Zhuangyuan's hand without leaving a trace.
He is not stupid, he knows who is the mastermind behind this incident.
It's the Chu family.
All his sufferings came from the Chu family.
A look of embarrassment flashed across Chu Zhuangyuan's face, but it disappeared quickly.
In order to ease the relationship, the old patriarch said with a smile:
"Now that Zihuan's innocence has been proven, I will spread the word when I return to Jinzhou and restore Zihuan's innocence."
"That's not necessary!" Ji Yuan didn't believe that these people would be so kind.
The scenes just now are still vivid in my mind. It is clear that these people want to kill Zihuan.
There is no chance for him to turn things around.
"Your Highness, since Zihuan is now my disciple, please allow me to seek justice for him."
"I am very pleased that Master Ji can treat Zihuan like this. Master, just go ahead and do it. Don't worry about anyone. I will take care of everything."
Shen Zhao’s words were very clear, Ji Yuan could do whatever he wanted.
There's no need to show mercy to the Chu family for her sake.
"Your Highness is wise. I will immediately send someone to Jinzhou with the evidence. In my name, I will defend my disciple and bring justice to him. I will uncover the mastermind behind this."
"I want to see who is the black-hearted person who framed my disciple like this."
As he spoke, he glanced sharply at all the members of the Chu clan.
He would never believe that these people were not involved.
"Why make such a fuss, sir? Zihuan stole papers from his classmate, and nothing was done to the authorities."
"Instead, the academy punished Zihuan. It's been years since the incident, and Zihuan suffered no losses. Reporting it to the authorities would only damage Zihuan's reputation."
As soon as the old patriarch said this, Ji Yuan immediately glanced at him coldly.
"Sir, you're trying to stop me from investigating the mastermind behind this. Could it be you?"
"It's true that you can only judge a person by his appearance. The old man looks so kind and amiable, but how could he have such a dark conscience?
A crumbling old skeleton deliberately stifled a child with a bright future."
Ji Yuan looked towards Chu Zhuangyuan and the others, and said as if he had suddenly realized something:
"I understand. The old man is afraid that Zihuan will be too outstanding and overshadow his own descendants, so he secretly humiliates, tortures, and destroys him.
It’s really disgusting!”
“You…you…” The old patriarch blushed with shame, and kept saying “you” for a long time but still didn’t dare to say anything harsh.
He snorted coldly and said nothing more.
But in his heart he hated Chu Mu and Yu Zihuan.
Chu Mu, this unfilial descendant, watched him being humiliated without saying a word to help him.
And there was that evil creature Yu Zihuan. He shouldn't have been so kind as to spare his life, but instead killed him directly.
Chu Tanhua felt extremely relieved when he saw the old patriarch being humiliated and Chu Zhuangyuan being slapped in the face by Yu Zihuan.
But when he thought about Yu Zihuan, who had always been under his feet and was about to become successful, the resentment in his heart surged again.
"Even if you prove that Yu Zihuan didn't steal his classmate's paper, he is still wrongly accused.
But you can’t say he’s a good person.”
"Yu Zihuan once stole money from Brother Zhuangyuan to make a living. If Brother Zhuangyuan hadn't been kind enough to forgive him, he wouldn't be standing here safe and sound now. He would have been thrown into prison long ago."
Chen Zhao became more and more optimistic about Chu Tanhua. He was really smart.
She didn't need to mention the fact that Zihuan was slandered for stealing money from Chu Zhuangyuan, because Chu Tanhua brought it up out of jealousy.
There will be another good show to watch next.
