Chapter 286: It turned out to be a misunderstanding
Shi Miyuan's palm stunned everyone.
Zhao Rushu raised his head and looked at Shi Miyuan with incredible eyes.
"Dear fellow villagers, I, Shi Miyuan, have always hated those who lust after their wives and daughters. If this person really does something shameful, I will definitely ask the government officials to punish him severely."
Shi Miyuan looked serious.
He actually won a round of applause from the onlookers.
The minions arranged by Shi Miyuan among the masses took the opportunity to publicize Shi Miyuan's kindness.
This time, no one responded.
Seeing the sight, Shi Mi quickly winked at those people.
Seeing that the farce was getting further and further, Zhao Bai had no choice but to knock the gavel hard again.
"Miss Wuchen, please tell me the incident in detail."
"Back to my lord, after Wuchen found out that the Prime Minister was his biological father, he was really scared."
Tears rolled down Wuchen's face again.
"Wuchen doesn't want to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion. Wuchen just wants to let his father know that there is a daughter like Wuchen."
There was a sigh outside the door.
Wuchen took a deep breath: "Wuchen knew that Mr. Zhao Rushu Zhao was his father's right-hand man, so he had some thoughts about his daughter's family."
Wuchen seemed to remember the scene when he was humiliated again, and actually started to cry.
"Miss Wuchen, don't cry. If you tell us the whole story, I, the Sixth Prince, the Prime Minister, and the folks in Lin'an Mansion will all give you justice."
Zhao Bai's words undoubtedly gave Wuchen a reassurance.
She began to make appointments with Zhao Rushu, and wanted Zhao Rushu to help meet Shi Miyuan, but Zhao Rushu made unreasonable demands, and finally told her everything about touching her.
Everyone outside the door was filled with indignation after hearing this.
Zhao Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Wuchen, Wuchen, your words are too inconsistent.
At first, there was a lot of fuss, and I thought your innocence was compromised.
Who would have known that someone just held your hand and didn't even touch your little face.
As for the unreasonable request, it is not unreasonable at all.
Don’t they ask you not to tell Shi Miyuan that he was the matchmaker after you met him?
Zhao Bai looked at Qin Shaobai, who also looked confused.
Zhao Bai glanced at Shi Miyuan again from the corner of his eye.
Shi Miyuan's face was not so relaxed, but looked more serious.
His heart was full of confusion.
What on earth is this little girl Wuchen thinking?
The words spoken in this class were completely different from those in Wangxiang Tower.
Even his tone became much lighter.
Is it possible that this girl is so kind-hearted that she wants to let Zhao Rushu go?
If so, was the slap I just gave you too much?
When Shi Miyuan thought of this, he suddenly understood.
Wuchen, this girl, never thought of punishing Zhao Rushu.
Her intention was to sow discord between herself and Zhao Rushu.
Shi Miyuan couldn't help but glance at Zhao Rushu.
Zhao Rushu's head was still lowered, not feeling relaxed at all because of Wuchen's incisive description.
The melon-eating crowd outside the door listening to the trial originally thought that Wuchen would tell some wonderful moments.
Who knew that what I heard was so clear and watery.
Knowing that there was nothing exciting to watch, they all left the house.
When there were only a few of them left in the lobby, Shi Miyuan finally stood up.
"Mr. Zhao, you just heard this. This matter is completely a misunderstanding. The little girl is thin-faced and strictly abides by the rules of Neo-Confucianism. She thought that Ru Shu held her hand because he was being unruly to her. In fact, Ru Shu just wanted to show off.
Take her affairs seriously."
After Shi Miyuan finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Rushu.
"Rushu, do you think so?"
Zhao Rushu naturally heard the soothing tone of Wuchen's tone, and he also understood that Wuchen was unwilling to embarrass himself again.
He actually felt a little grateful to Wuchen.
Now that he saw Shi Miyuan standing up to explain to him again, he originally wanted to agree with Shi Miyuan's words and walked down the steps.
But when he thought of that slap just now, he felt angry again.
Although they had already agreed that this was a ploy before coming, he never thought that Shi Miyuan would slap him in public.
With just that slap, Zhao Rushu already understood his position in Shi Miyuan's heart.
He is just a dog.
At this time, Zhao Rushu really had mixed feelings, and he had already thought about leaving Lin'an.
However, he understood that he could not go against Shi Miyuan.
Otherwise, he would not be able to leave Lin'an smoothly.
Thinking of this, Zhao Rushu nodded, cupped his hands to Zhao Bai and said, "Sir, what Shi Gong said is exactly what Rushu was thinking. Rushu never had any bad thoughts towards Miss Wuchen. What Rushu was thinking at that time was
Let Shi Gong and Miss Wuchen know each other as father and daughter."
Zhao Bai turned to Wuchen and asked again.
"Miss Wuchen, do you agree with what Shi Xiang and Mr. Zhao said?"
Before Wuchen could speak, Qin Shaobai had already laughed.
"Look, the people watching outside the door have dispersed, which means they also know that this is just a joke caused by a misunderstanding. Wuchen, don't worry too much about it."
When Qin Shaobai said this, Wuchen felt as if he had received a pardon. He immediately wiped the tears off his face, bent down, and saluted Zhao Rushu.
"Master Zhao, please forgive Wuchen for not having seen the world. Wuchen has been taught by his mother since he was a child that men and women are not close to each other, so he misunderstood Mr. Zhao. Please forgive Mr. Zhao for Wuchen's recklessness."
These few words were spoken with sincerity and reason, and the manner in which they were said was even more apologetic.
Zhao Rushu couldn't be more angry. He immediately returned the greeting and said, "Miss Wuchen's words are serious. Rushu has to thank Miss Wuchen for her tolerance and generosity. I don't bear any grudge against Rushu's recklessness."
After Zhao Ru finished speaking, he clasped his fists and said to Qin Shaobai.
"The Sixth Prince just spoke upright and allowed Miss Wuchen to understand Ru Shu's original intention. Ru Shu is extremely grateful."
After thanking Qin Shaobai, Zhao Rushu began to thank Zhao Bai again.
"Master Zhao, General Zhao, you have criticized the general a lot in the past, thinking that he is just a show-off, seeking the protection of the royal family. Today, you know that the general has a pair of wise eyes that can bring wisdom to the people of Lin'an.
Fairness and justice.”
Shi Miyuan and Zhao Rushu thanked everyone present, but did not even look at him.
His lungs were red with anger and his face became extremely ugly.
Zhao Bai couldn't see Shi Miyuan's obvious anger.
He and Qin Shaobai looked at each other.
Both sides understand that their move to sow discord, although the process is somewhat tortuous, the result is still very satisfying.
The two of them turned their eyes to Wuchen at the same time.
The girl was playing with her fingers leisurely and contentedly, as if what happened in the class had nothing to do with her.
