Chapter 110 Come to the door
"Misunderstanding? Does the Left Prime Minister think I've misunderstood you?"
"Your Highness, I truly did not mean to deny it. It's just that the witnesses Miss Xue mentioned have not arrived yet. I was simply too busy with official duties and made a slip of the tongue in my haste."
Although Wang Cheng'en feared Murong Xun, he also knew that as long as he insisted that he had no such intention, even the regent could not do anything to him.
"So the Left Prime Minister is blaming me, the witness, for arriving late?"
Murong Xun had no intention of letting Wang Chengen go and continued to press him relentlessly.
My elder brother is old and blind, unable to distinguish between loyalty and treachery, and he can't judge people well. He's not so easily fooled.
"Your Highness, you are wise. I did not mean that."
When the hat was put on him, Wang Chengen turned pale with fright and knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.
Xue Ruanruan couldn't help but burst out laughing; why did those words sound so familiar?
The Left Prime Minister probably never dreamed that his show of force would backfire on him so quickly. He had already put a big accusation on the Headmaster when he first arrived, and now Murong Xun has put one on him in return. It's truly karma.
With that soft laugh, everyone present was taken aback. No wonder Miss Xue showed no respect for the Left Prime Minister, her attitude was so tough, and she dared to openly oppose him.
It turns out that the Xue family's backer was actually the Regent!
I thought that even as the legitimate daughter of the General of the State, she would not have a good ending after offending the Left Prime Minister.
Seeing Murong Xun suddenly appear, Xue Ruanruan breathed a sigh of relief; he really had come.
“A clear understanding? Ha, even the Left Prime Minister knows the meaning of ‘clear understanding’.”
Murong Xun stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the Left Prime Minister kneeling before him, and sneered.
"Your Highness, I was wrong in this matter. I should not have drawn conclusions before investigating the facts."
Knowing that the Regent and the General of the State were in the same camp, the Left Chancellor dared not be stubborn any longer and had to admit his mistake.
"Did you all hear that?"
Murong Xun ignored Wang Chengen and swept his cold gaze over the other students and parents who were watching the situation unfold.
"Your Highness, I heard you."
The regent asked the question personally, so how could they not respond? The students' parents were so frightened that they nodded repeatedly.
No one expected that the witness mentioned by Miss Xue was actually the Regent, and no one dared to question whether he would give false testimony.
Given the Regent's character, no one would have the audacity to ask him to give false testimony.
They should worry about themselves first, and then deal with their wayward son when they get back home. Instead of studying properly, he dared to bully his classmates at the academy. Didn't he know whether his family could afford to offend him?
"Your Highness, please calm your anger. I know I am guilty and beg Your Highness to spare my life."
Wang Chengen had a bad feeling; the Regent was not going to let him off the hook this time.
Over the years, with no one in the court daring to oppose him, he had forgotten to eliminate the regent, who was still a young wolf cub.
Later, the regent quickly gained power and controlled the government. His hard-earned network of relationships was greatly damaged by his suppression.
Only then did he realize that this was a wolf king that could eat human flesh and drink human blood.
"Since the Left Prime Minister has admitted his guilt, I will give you a chance to repent and start anew. Yan Xiao, you will handle today's matter on my behalf. If you fail to handle it well, you will be held responsible."
Murong Xun glanced meaningfully at the parents of the other students, who were so frightened that they shrank into a corner like quails.
"Yes, master."
Yan Xiao had served by Murong Xun's side for many years and instantly understood his master's meaning.
Increase the severity of penalties.
If these people don't want to be skinned alive, the consequences are beyond their control.
They had to choose between saving their money and saving their lives, and their master was precisely worried about money.
Judging from their appearance, none of them are short of money. The divine doctor is truly the master's lucky star; every time they meet, there are always unexpected surprises.
Not long ago, the personal maid of the divine healer suddenly ran to the mansion for help, saying that the divine healer had gone to the academy to seek justice for the young master, but was instead made difficult by the Left Prime Minister, and wanted to ask her master to testify for her.
Yan Xiao was also worried that, given her master's temperament, he would certainly not interfere in such trivial matters, even if the divine physician had been kind to her master.
To his surprise, his master's reaction far exceeded his expectations. Without any hesitation, the master immediately agreed and even made another trip to the academy.
If he still couldn't see the special affection his master had for the divine healer, then he would have wasted all these years of following his master.
