The emperor was very confident in Bai Jin's literary talent, so when he heard Bai Jin say this, he shook his head immediately.
"No, you've memorized this very well. I now know very clearly who is right and who is wrong between the two of you.
"Platinum, please get up. Stop kneeling. This isn't your fault, so there's no need for you to kneel. Get up first!"
Bai Jin did not bother to be polite with the emperor, but slowly stood up, walked to the emperor's side, and stood there looking at the people below.
After hearing what Bai Jin recited, Zhang Jiahao's face suddenly turned pale.
He really did think that if he wanted to turn things around this time, it would be impossible.
Grand Tutor Zhang slapped him on the head, bent down and yelled in his ear.
"What's wrong with you? Why would you do such a thing? Has our Zhang family wronged you in any way?
Why did you do this? Do you know how much of an impact this will have on our family? " Doctor Zhang looked at Bai Jin with a feeling of disappointment. He didn't know why Bai Jin would do such a thing.
But the most important thing now is that he has to find a way to make this matter go away.
So Zhang Taishi suddenly knelt down and said, "I hope Your Majesty will forgive me. My child is ignorant. I am willing to take the punishment for him."
After saying this, Grand Tutor Zhang kowtowed several times to the emperor.
Soon his head was covered in blood, but he still didn't react and wanted to continue knocking his head.
However, the emperor did not let him continue to kowtow. He signaled to the people around him, and Eunuch Su went over to stop him immediately.
"Zhang Aiqing, this is not your fault. You don't have to be like this. He made a mistake himself, so he should take the consequences."
Although things have come to this point, Zhang Jiahao is still unwilling to admit it and is still trying to argue.
"No, Your Majesty, this was not done by me. There must be some misunderstanding, Your Majesty."
Grand Tutor Zhang couldn't bear to watch him like this.
He suddenly faced him and slapped him.
"Shut up, don't say anything more. You did something like this and you still dare to quibble. Why don't you apologize quickly?"
There was no way Zhang Jiahao would agree to apologize to his mortal enemy.
So he always held his head high and was unwilling to bow to Platinum.
Seeing him like this, Grand Tutor Zhang was really angry. He didn't know what to do at all.
"Zhang Jiahao, if you continue to behave like this, I will sever all ties with you from today on. From now on, we will have no relationship at all."
When Bai Jin heard what Master Zhang said, he felt scared.
If it weren't for Grand Tutor Zhang supporting him from behind, he would have no capital to be so carefree.
So at this time, no matter how unwilling he is, he has to apologize.
He walked to Bai Jin's side, lowered his head, and spoke to Bai Jin.
"I'm sorry, this is my fault. This seat originally belonged to you. I went to the examiner and paid him money, and he agreed to help me change it.
I did something wrong in this matter, please forgive me."
For such an important matter, Bai Jin couldn't decide on his own whether to forgive him or not.
And it doesn’t mean that this matter will be over just because Bai Jin forgives him.
This kind of thing is now considered a serious matter. We have to see how the emperor plans to deal with it.
So when Bai Jin heard him say this, he didn't say anything, just looked at him.
Zhang Jiahao got angry when he saw Bai Jin's current state.
He felt that Bai Jin was looking down on him now. He had clearly apologized, but Bai Jin didn't show any reaction. Isn't this looking down on him?
When Zhang Jiahao thought about Bai Jin looking down on him, he couldn't control his emotions.
He suddenly stretched out his hand and punched Bai Jin.
He is fast, but Platinum is even faster than him.
The moment he rushed over, Bai Jin had already dodged.
Zhang Jiahao's fist hit nothing and couldn't hit Bai Jin at all.
Bai Jin was now like a mad dog. Seeing Bai Jin dodge away, he chased after him immediately.
"Bai Jin, what do you mean? Are you looking down on me? Come here, do you think you're so great? You just have a father who's a general and is a little better educated than me.
Apart from this, what else can you do? You can’t do anything else. What’s so great about that?
Zhang Taishi wanted to stop him, but he didn't have enough strength. He came to Zhang Jiahao's side and stretched out his hand to grab him, but he couldn't hold him back at all.
And as soon as he went up, he was pushed away by Zhang Jiahao.
"Zhang Jiahao, are you crazy? Do you know where this place is? How dare you make such a fuss? Do you want to die?"
Zhang Jiahao was just angry and didn't react for a while.
After hearing Master Zhang's shout, he finally reacted, but it was too late.
At this moment, Zhang Jiahao didn't even dare to look up to see the emperor's expression.
He could only kneel down without saying a word.
The emperor had been watching from up there, and he saw exactly what was happening.
So at this moment he suddenly spoke.
"Someone, come! Take him down and lock him in a dark room. Keep him there for a while. Whether you can survive depends on yourself. In half a year, I will send someone to bring you out."
When Zhang Jiahao heard that he was going to be sent to the dark room, his already ugly face became even uglier.
Grand Tutor Zhang's expression wasn't much better at this point.
Of course he knew what the dark room was. It was a place where very few people who entered could come out alive.
In fact, it is equivalent to a dungeon, except that it is full of extremely vicious people. Once you go in, anyone who doesn't have any ability will never be able to come out alive.
According to people like the Zhang family, if he goes in, there is a high probability that he will not be able to get out.
That's why Grand Tutor Zhang was so excited when he heard the emperor talking about the dark room.
Grand Tutor Zhang knelt down again, and this time no matter how Eunuch Su pulled him, he refused to get up.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to take the punishment for my son. I hope Your Majesty will consider my diligence and agree to my unreasonable request.
If I have the opportunity to return, I will take my son and retire to my hometown. I will definitely not affect General Bai's family anymore. I hope Your Majesty will approve it."
