Chapter 1214 I want to stay!
"When will he wake up?"
"this--"
Zhu Chengxuan hesitated for a moment and said softly, "I, I don't know."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding students immediately erupted in a commotion. Xia Fuxiu sneered, raised his hand, and pressed it downwards, signaling everyone to hush their voices. Then he said coldly, "Young Master, you've left us speechless."
"I--"
The more nervous Zhu Chengxuan became, the more speechless he became.
Nan Yan said, "Xuan'er, don't be anxious. Tell me what happened slowly."
Zhu Chengxuan nodded at her and said, "After the onset of this disease, the person will faint for a period of time. And just now-"
He looked down at the blood on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I had originally planned to let some of his blood out to alleviate the symptoms and then bandage him immediately, but—you arrested me, so I couldn't bandage him in time. He's lost too much blood now, and I don't know when he'll wake up."
When the people around heard him say this, they hesitated.
Xia Fuxiu sneered and said, "So, we are the ones who killed this person?"
When they heard him say this, the people around him also showed an angry expression and said angrily: "Who knows whether you are saving people or killing people?"
"Now that I'm half dead, of course you can say whatever you want."
"If the person is truly dead, there will be no room for your nonsense!"
Zhu Chengxuan said anxiously: "But I am telling the truth!"
Nan Yan also said coldly: "Everyone, you want him to explain, but now you don't believe him. What do you want?!"
Although she was not very old, she was dressed elegantly and had a noble temperament. When she spoke, she exuded a solemn air. When the students around her saw her like this, they all quieted down.
Xia Fuxiu said coldly, "Who are you?"
Nan Yan's eyes grew even colder. "I'm his elder, so naturally I'd be the one to speak up if anything happened to him. But you, a mere assistant cultivator, your teacher hasn't even spoken yet, and yet you're talking so much?"
Xia Fuxiu was stunned by what she said: "You——"
He subconsciously glanced at Jian Ruocheng.
Jian Ruocheng stood silently by the side. Although he said nothing, the aura he exuded was definitely not that of a "second son of the Jian family" or a teacher at Zhujian Academy.
That was the aura of the Right Prime Minister of the Secretariat.
Nan Yan knew that no matter if they had been in the palace or in the officialdom, they were all very concerned about rules and rank. Although she didn't know the origins of this Xia Fuxiu, she could sense that there was no harmony between the two of them from the moment he came out and started shouting loudly, completely ignoring Jian Ruocheng. After observing Jian Ruocheng's attitude, she felt that there was no harmony between the two.
So Nan Yan had a purpose when she said this.
Xia Fuxiu said to Jian Ruocheng, "Master, what do you think we should do?"
However, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and his words even revealed an awe-inspiring attitude that made him look superior to the master.
Nan Yan had a vague feeling that this person's background was not simple.
“…”
Jian Ruocheng was silent for a long time, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he walked to Qian Xiuwen and looked down at him for a long time.
Then he said calmly, "Young Master, what you said is just one side of the story. Without evidence or other witnesses, it will be hard to convince others."
"I--"
Zhu Chengxuan himself hesitated.
Nan Yan immediately said: "Then what the master means is——"
Jian Ruocheng said, "When the person wakes up, we'll know the answer by asking him."
“…”
"During this period, this young master cannot leave the Bamboo Academy."
"What?!"
When Nan Yan heard this, her brows furrowed.
Isn't the reason he did this just to detain Zhu Chengxuan?
If it were anything else, it would be fine, but Zhu Chengxuan is His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei, the emperor's own son. They actually want to detain Zhu Chengxuan. Isn't it obvious that they want to make things difficult for Zhu Feng?
It would be fine if others didn't know, but Jian Ruocheng understood the relationship very well.
Nan Yan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Master, you should be very clear about the consequences of this action."
“…”
Jian Ruocheng looked at him indifferently, unmoved.
It seems that he has made up his mind about the Jian family's affairs and will not change his mind easily.
The students around sneered when they heard Nan Yan's words.
"Why don't you use force to threaten our Master?"
"We're not afraid!"
"Even if the emperor comes, murderers must be punished with death. Princes who break the law are subject to the same punishment as common people!"
Hearing these indignant words, Xia Fuxiu sneered and said to Nan Yan, "Madam, did you hear clearly?"
"you--"
At this moment, Zhu Chengxuan said, "I won't leave either. I want to stay!"
“……!”
Nan Yan was shocked and looked at him in astonishment: "Xuan'er, you——"
Jian Ruocheng was also a little surprised.
Zhu Chengxuan calmed down at this moment and said to the students behind him who were holding his hands, "Let me go first and let me talk to my wife. I won't leave."
A few students hesitated for a moment and then let him go.
Zhu Chengxuan walked over to Nan Yan and whispered, "My Lady, I don't want to be charged with murder. This man must wake up to prove my innocence. So I'm going to stay and take care of him until he wakes up."
"Can--"
Nan Yan was still a little hesitant, but when she looked up at Xia Fuxiu and the people around him, she immediately calmed down.
She thought for a moment and said, "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"That's right."
Although Zhu Chengxuan looks weak, he is very firm once he makes a decision. In this respect, he is a bit like Zhu Feng in his bones.
He said, "Please go back and explain to the emperor."
Nan Yan whispered, "But you also know your father's temper."
"I believe that with the Empress here, everything will be easy."
“…”
Nan Yan was both angry and amused by what she said.
But she was still worried. She thought about it and turned to look at Li Bushang.
Before he could speak, Li Bushang had already said, "I will stay with him."
Nan Yan said: "No harm, in that case, then you have to be careful."
"Don't worry."
As he said this, he looked at Nan Yan deeply again.
Because of Zhu Feng's deliberate arrangements these days, he almost never saw Nan Yan. When he finally got to see her, it was under such circumstances.
There was clearly a look of nostalgia in his eyes.
Nan Yan's heart trembled slightly when she saw his gaze. She subconsciously turned her head away from him, but met Jian Ruocheng's gaze again.
He looked at them both in silence.
Nan Yan said, "Master, Xuan'er will stay here."
Jian Ruocheng said, "Madam, you can rest assured. He will not be in danger until the truth comes out."
