Chapter 467 Solving the Crisis

Chapter 467 Solving the Crisis
The Wang family of three was invited to Qujiang Villa. Prefect Wei gave a series of instructions, ordering that plenty of hot water and the best guest rooms be prepared to settle them in.

He even invited a doctor to examine Madam Wang and Old Madam Wang, and only after confirming that they were both in good health did Prefect Wei breathe a sigh of relief.

The next day, Prefect Wei, along with his wife, went to formally meet Old Madam Wang.

Upon meeting, Prefect Wei immediately wanted to test Old Lady Wang's identity.

Unexpectedly, Old Mrs. Wang raised her eyelids and said, "Wei Guo'er, stop guessing. With your brains, you can only sit in the position of prefect. Your father must have donated a lot of money."

A sarcastic remark brought tears to Prefect Wei's eyes.

“Aunt Ran…” Prefect Wei’s eyes were red and his voice was choked with emotion, “You still remember?”

Only a handful of people know his nickname, Wei Guo'er, and the exceptionally talented Princess Yongchang was one of them.

Everyone says she is an extremely gentle person, but Prefect Wei, who has been bullied by her since childhood, knows that Princess Yongchang is actually a very naughty person. When she wants to choke someone to death, no one can escape.

However, very few people have seen that side of her.

Unexpectedly, more than thirty years later, he was able to see her again!
Grandma Wang ignored Prefect Wei's agitated appearance and said, "What's there to remember? It's all in the past. I'm too old to remember."

Prefect Wei knew that she didn't want to talk about it anymore.

Indeed, she knew she was Princess Yongchang, yet she had never appeared in public for over thirty years.

Putting aside everything else, just over a month ago, people from the Duke of Anguo's mansion came to him and asked to borrow one of his men, saying they needed to go to a certain place to find news of Princess Yongchang.

He was naturally happy to cooperate, and even went out of his way to make things easier for them, allowing them to bring troops into the county, just to facilitate the investigation.

Otherwise, a general is not allowed to lead troops outside his garrison without imperial decree; those who violate this rule will be punished for treason.

However, if local officials are willing to act as guarantors, then there are separate regulations.

The two men spoke in cryptic language, leaving Wang Chuanfu and Wang Chuanman completely bewildered.

What's the matter?

The two brothers couldn't sleep the night before either, both with dark circles under their eyes, and each more confused than the other.

Prefect Wei understood that Old Madam Wang didn't want to reveal herself, so she only told others that she had saved his life, and naturally he had to treat her with great hospitality. "Aunt Ran, is this your child? He's so handsome and strong!" She was just a little rustic.

He has an honest and simple nature that he can't hide.

They look extremely easy to fool.

Grandma Wang: "They're all good-for-nothings. Compared to the one who's locked up, they're not so bad."

Prefect Wei hurriedly asked, "What's going on now?"

As a result, Prefect Wei naturally learned that Wang Chuangui had been accused of cheating.

Xuezheng was still threatening Wang Chuangui in prison, implying that he should hand over thousands of taels of silver or his path to advancement would be cut off.

Moreover, if a student from a family commits cheating, the school official can expel the entire family from the imperial examinations, and their descendants will be barred from participating in the examinations for three generations.

In more serious cases, students from the entire village or town would be barred from taking the imperial examinations.

Wang Chuangui tried his best to prove himself, even offering to write another article on the spot, but Xue Zheng persisted.

"Wang Xuezi, have you thought this through? Is your path to success more important, or are those material possessions more important? My time is limited, don't keep me waiting too long." The academic advisor said this arrogantly when he last saw Wang Chuangui.

In despair, Wang Chuangui even considered ending his own life.

He lived a life of failure, believing that by striving to improve his knowledge, he could prove himself and bring happiness to his family.

But who would have thought that his incompetence would even bring trouble to his family!
Just as he tore off the cloth from his body and twisted it into a rope to hang himself, Xue Zheng tumbled and crawled into the prison.

"Wang...Wang Xuezi, I was blind to your greatness, please forgive me!"

"No—I'll take this one, I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Wang Chuangui, who had just shoved his neck into the rope, was speechless.
