Huh? The Tyrant Cries After My Inner Thoughts Were Exposed!-Chapter 156: Is the Vice Director Discussing Marriage?

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Is the Vice Director Discussing Marriage?

Having grown up together with Liu Xuan, Xie Xun should be the person who knows him best.

But Xie Xun never imagined in his life that he could witness Liu Xuan doing such a ’shameful thing’ in his lifetime.

Almost everyone looked towards Liu Xuan, for the shock he brought by doing such a thing far exceeded the incident of Song Qianfan being kicked into the pond.

Su Juan nudged Xie Xun with her elbow, "Has he always been like this?"

Xie Xun touched his chin and tilted his head towards Su Juan, "Look at the reactions of these people; does it seem like he’s always been like this?"

This was really not something that the always-righteous Liu Xuan would do.

Liu Miaoying was surprised, although she didn’t know what happened, since the one who fell into the water was the Princely Heir, she could guess it has something to do with Su Juan.

Neither had a tendency to cause trouble, what on earth did Song Qianfan do to make the always-peaceful Liu Xuan push him into the pond?

Even the Old Emperor was shocked, could Duke Ping’s son have such a temper?

It’s not just these people who were surprised, even Duke Ping himself, as a father, was dumbfounded.

Song Qianfan climbed out and rushed towards Liu Xuan, not caring how many people were present, his wet hand tightly gripping Liu Xuan’s collar, his eyes red with anger, "You want to die!"

"Presumptuous!" the Old Emperor scolded, his authority as a monarch fully displayed.

No one dared to speak up, this princely heir was too bold, even daring to act aggressively in front of His Majesty.

Prince Jing’s face looked displeased, how long has it been since this eldest son stirred up trouble again, "Nonsense! In front of His Majesty, let go at once."

Song Qianfan clenched his fist underneath his sleeve, veins bulging, yet Liu Xuan, whom he was gripping, remained calm and unflustered, showing no emotion.

He gritted his teeth, under the gaze of everyone, eventually released his grip and pleaded guilty to the Emperor, "I lost my composure, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The Old Emperor’s eyes were filled with displeasure, daring to be so presumptuous in front of me, truly harboring wild ambitions.

To everyone’s surprise, Liu Xuan also pleaded guilty to the Emperor after Song Qianfan, "A moment ago, it was I who struck the heir, please punish me, Your Majesty."

Xie Xun was immediately speechless, this fool, who goes so eagerly to plead guilt and ask for punishment, clearly it was Song Qianfan who instigated the trouble, being kicked into the water serves him right.

Right and wrong, one can tell at a glance.

Su Juan was slightly stunned, she could somewhat guess Liu Xuan’s intention. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Duke Ping’s eyes carried a hint of appreciation.

This child really grew up under his eyes, his character and sense of responsibility are impeccable.

The Old Emperor was initially just here to watch the drama, from the commotion just now, it was clear that it was Su Juan who kicked someone in, she was the only one with such temperament and courage, but what exactly happened that even Liu Xuan took action, this truly piques one’s curiosity.

He maintained a stern face and asked the two in a deep voice, "What happened, heir, you speak first."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately perked up their ears.

Song Qianfan pursed his thin lips, not intending to make a big issue out of it, if the matter escalated, it wouldn’t benefit him, "Replying to Your Majesty, it was just a verbal dispute, not a big deal."

The Old Emperor let out an "Oh," "What was the dispute about?"

Song Qianfan made up a line, "It was merely a difference of opinion between me and Mr. Liu over an article, thus the dispute arose."

The Old Emperor almost rolled his eyes, who is he trying to fool?

Su Juan wasn’t a fool, Song Qianfan came today just to find a marriage from a prestigious family like the Yue Family to pave the way for his future.

Nowadays, the people he can rely on are getting fewer, no matter how severe the situation today, he wouldn’t blow it out of proportion.

Liu Miaoying looked at Su Juan, knowing Liu Xuan too well, the reason he pushed Song Qianfan into the pond in front of everyone was just to draw the matter onto himself, perhaps to prevent the issue from escalating and damaging Ah Juan’s reputation.

As such, Song Qianfan would only vent his anger on him.

And in fact, Song Qianfan wouldn’t recount the entire matter; this was all within Liu Xuan’s expectations.

However, people were not buying it, they were all here for the excitement, how can he say it’s not a big deal!?

To get here quickly, the Old Emperor nearly tripped, with Su Juan yelling so fiercely, how could there be nothing going on?

He also knew Liu Xuan’s nature wouldn’t reveal it, otherwise, he wouldn’t have stood up to plead guilty. His gaze immediately shifted to Su Juan and Xie Xun, "You two, talk."

The two exchanged a glance, Xie Xun replied with a smile, "Your Majesty, it was indeed just a verbal dispute, earlier Prince Jing’s heir mentioned an article about a scholar missing his wife, and Mr. Liu held a different opinion, thus the argument began."

Su Juan turned to look at Xie Xun, [?]

[You’re really going along with it!?]

The crowd stared intently at Xie Xun and Su Juan, Liu Xuan wasn’t the kind to speak behind others’ backs and would certainly remain silent, Song Qianfan was unwilling to speak, so it was left to Heir Xie and Vice Director, they’re all insiders, what couldn’t be said?

"Indeed, just as the heir said." Xie Xun continued to fabricate, "The scholar who wrote that article initially had a wife, but he was fickle and treated his wife poorly. The wife, unable to endure the humiliation, divorced him."

Su Juan remained silent, [Why don’t you just name Song Qianfan directly.]

Everyone had a sudden realization; it turned out the scholar Heir Xie mentioned was actually Prince Jing’s heir!

The Old Emperor now showed interest, gesturing for Xie Xun to continue.

Xie Xun’s eloquence was on full display at that moment, "Who knew that after the divorce, the scholar still wouldn’t let go of his ex-wife, entangled with her, and even boldly insulted her."

Everyone: Beast!

Truly did not expect Prince Jing’s heir to be such a person, still entangling with his ex-wife even after divorce, and insulting her, truly inhumane.

The Old Emperor frowned; he knew that recently Prince Jing’s heir had requested to meet Su Juan several times but was turned away. But what was going on with Song Qianfan, unhappy with the marriage to start with, now going back to try to save it, does he think marriage is a game?

Now causing a scene even at the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet, such audacity!

Xie Xun continued to fabricate, "The heir felt that even after divorce, the scholar’s ex-wife was still his, shouldn’t consider another marriage, and shouldn’t show her face in public, ruining the family’s reputation, furthermore considering the ex-wife ungrateful and wanting to ruin the marriage."

Su Juan: "???"

[Stop making things up! When did I consider another marriage!?]

Everyone seized the key point, considering another marriage!?

Is the Vice Director arranging a marriage?

The Old Emperor also became curious, hadn’t heard of it, which young man from which family is it!?

Could it be Prince Jing’s second son who is currently serving as the Junior Minister of the Ministry of Rites?

No no no, how could the Vice Director marry back into Prince Jing’s Mansion, that’s ridiculous, right?

Could it possibly be Heir Xie who defends Vice Director in every word he speaks!?

No no no, Heir Xie’s romantic entanglements outside are numerous, how is that possible for the Vice Director?

Or could it be that plump butted Minister of the Ministry of Justice?

Does that Minister of the Ministry of Justice really have such a plump butt?

Everyone’s eyes suddenly fell on Minister of the Ministry of Justice Yu Zhong, who was also joining in the excitement not far away.

Minister of the Ministry of Justice Yu Zhong’s temples throbbed: Stop staring at my butt!
