Rebirth, guarding the mute at the tip of my heart

"He still has the nerve to complain about himself! If it weren't for the prince's wisdom, who discovered the hidden story behind this theft, Young Master Jiang would have been kicked out of the academy long ago. By then, with the reputation of a thief, which academy would be willing to accept Young Master Jiang?

If you want to talk about injustice, who can be more wronged than Mr. Jiang, the victim? Mr. Jiang still treats people as friends!" Someone in the crowd looked at Lu Wuliang's energetic appearance and couldn't help but said with some disgust.

"That's right!" The woman who had spoken out first probably felt sorry for Jiang Xin, a little kid who was wronged but couldn't defend himself, so she immediately agreed:

"Look at Mr. Jiang, there's still gauze wrapped around his forehead. He must have been punished for what happened yesterday. He looks so pitiful. He doesn't look that old. He probably didn't expect that there would be such a shameless person in the world. He doesn't know people well!"

When everyone heard this, they looked at the thick circle on Jiang Xin's forehead, which made Jiang Xin's face look even paler, and then looked at Lu Wuliang's red and purple face (from being beaten), and nodded in agreement.

Jiang Xin: “…”

No matter what, if Lu Wuliang hadn't been such a dishonest person, Jiang Xin wouldn't have been expelled from the academy, and there wouldn't have been a lawsuit today, and Lu Wuliang naturally wouldn't have had to suffer the punishment he had just suffered.

After all, it was all his own fault and there was really nothing to sympathize with him.

"You, you guys——!" Lu Wuliang was almost mad with anger. He pointed at those people at the gate of the government office who had no empathy and shouted angrily: "You are in cahoots with each other and are accomplices to the evildoer..."

"Enough!" The dean at the side saw the people's discussions getting louder and louder, and then looked at Lu Wuliang's useless appearance, and shook his head. After he stopped the other party, he bowed to Xie Ze and said:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for finding this unfilial and unrighteous student for my Baishan Academy today. As the dean, I will definitely not tolerate such a person staying in the academy."

"Dean!" Lu Wuliang originally wanted to struggle desperately and use an excuse to bite back, but after hearing the dean's final words, he felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar in an instant, looking at the dean in fear and despair: Dean, you can't do this..."

However, the dean just glanced at Lu Wuliang coldly, and then stopped looking at him and said nothing more.

Lu Wuliang looked at the dean, then looked at the people outside who were glaring at him with disgust, and took a step back in a daze.

When Xie Ze inexplicably targeted him and questioned him step by step, the huge uneasiness that lingered in his heart finally subsided as expected.

He framed Jiang Xin, and his hope of climbing up the ladder by taking advantage of the Jiang family's influence ultimately came to nothing.

Jiang family, Jiang Xingyu...

That’s right! Jiang Xingyu, Jiang Xingyu!

Lu Wuliang suddenly raised his head, as if trying to grab the last straw, and accurately locked onto Jiang Xingyu's location.

Jiang Xingyu is the legitimate son of the Jiang family. Unlike that waste Jiang Xin, he is Lord Jiang’s most beloved son. Jiang Xingyu will definitely be able to help him!

Jiang Xingyu was originally standing in the crowd with a sullen face. Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly favorable to Jiang Xin, he was ready to leave, but was nailed to the spot by Lu Wuliang's gaze that was as real as reality.

He realized something and immediately glared at Lu Wuliang coldly. If this guy dared to talk nonsense, he would never let him go!

When Lu Wuliang saw Jiang Xingyu's gaze, his heart sank again. Before he could sort out his thoughts, Xie Ze's voice, like an evil ghost urging him to die, seemed to come to his ears again: "Okay, now you can explain why you framed Jiang Xin for stealing your jade pendant."

Lu Wuliang guiltily withdrew his gaze and looked at Xie Ze. The other person looked at him as if he was looking at a dead object. He looked at Jiang Xin's hand that was taken away from Xie Ze. Thinking that Xie Ze could actually understand sign language just now, he would be stupid if he didn't understand that these two people had known each other for a long time.

This legendary prince had been targeting him from the very beginning.

Because he offended Jiang Xin.

Realizing this, Lu Wuliang clenched his fists, lowered his head slightly to hide the resentment in his eyes, and explained in a low voice: "I didn't frame him, I didn't do it on purpose, it's just that I lost the jade pendant and I was in a hurry, so I went to find the teacher.

Now I think Jiang Xin must have picked it up and wanted to return it to me, I misunderstood."

It doesn’t matter. Although he messed up, he and Jiang Xingyu are now in the same boat. Jiang Xingyu will definitely help him. He still has a chance.

At worst, he can use this as an excuse to force Jiang Xingyu to help him.

Xie Ze sneered immediately, and looked at the teacher who was pretending to be dead beside him with a sharp gaze: "You mean, it was such a simple misunderstanding, and the teacher expelled Jiang Xin from the academy without even investigating it?"

Master Xu, who was standing by, was shocked when he heard this, and immediately shouted at Lu Wuliang: "Lu Wuliang! It was you who said that the jade pendant was missing from the drawer, and only Jiang Xin didn't go out during the break, so I went to search Jiang Xin's bag."

As he spoke, Master Xu bowed to Xie Ze again and said, "Your Majesty, please understand. After the jade pendant was found, Jiang Xin wrote to explain that it was given to him by Lu Wuliang, but Lu Wuliang denied it. The two testimonies conflicted, and the jade pendant was in Jiang Xin's hands. I was in a hurry and did not investigate carefully, so I drove Jiang Xin out of the academy."

Master Xu never expected that such a small case would lead to so many things. If he had known that Lu Wuliang and Jiang Xin had become friends in private and that Lu Wuliang had received so much help from Jiang Xin, he would not have bothered with such a small matter of three or five taels of silver!

"Lu Wuliang must be lying! Young Master Jiang gave him so many things, it's more than the price of a jade pendant!" The people at the door shouted when they heard this.

If Jiang Xin was such a greedy person, why would he have given Lu Wuliang those small wooden carvings, which were carved from the best wood?

Jiang Xin also nodded at this time, proving that the jade pendant was indeed given to him by Lu Wuliang the day before. He had no intention of accepting it and had thought of returning it to Lu Wuliang the next day. Unexpectedly, before he could return it, he was framed by the other party.

Jiang Xin wrote the matter about the jade pendant on a piece of paper and had the lawyer beside him read it out so that everyone would know.

Perhaps having learned his lesson from the time he wrote down what happened at home yesterday and was ridiculed by Jiang Xingyu, Jiang Xin did not write that Lu Wuliang gave him the jade pendant as a confession of love. He did not want to be laughed at again, nor did he want to have anything to do with this man anymore.

Lu Wuliang didn't expect Jiang Xin to write everything down like this without showing any mercy. Looking at the other party's heartless look, he was completely different from his previous well-behaved and innocent appearance.

Not knowing whether he was more sad or resentful, Lu Wuliang couldn't help but want to rush forward to grab Jiang Xin and question him, but was kicked to the ground by Xie Ze again.

"Ah--!" The kick was delivered with great force, hitting Lu Wuliang's shin bone right on the leg. Lu Wuliang screamed in pain, and he suspected that his shin bone was broken.

Just as he was about to shout, two yamen runners nearby jumped out instantly, holding Lu Wuliang's arms on the left and right, pressing him to the ground like a dead dog, and scolded him with angry brows: "What do you want to do?! Do you want to hurt someone in the court?!"
