Chapter 1396
So after Song Zhong finished speaking, he spoke again.
"Is it just that the emperor's attitude is strange? It doesn't help us rescue our teacher at all. That's the Imperial Guard's prison!"
"Everyone knows that the Imperial Guard's prison is like hell; anyone who goes in is skinned alive. My teacher has already been in the prison for a day!"
"No one knows what kind of torture they will suffer. We must rescue the teacher as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable!"
At this point, Xu Miao paused, looked around and made eye contact with everyone, and then continued:
"I suggest that we deans, together with those from the Academy of Engineering, jointly petition the court, asking His Majesty to grant mercy and pardon our teacher's crimes."
"Even if His Majesty refuses, we must at least get him to change the place of our teacher's imprisonment, so that he doesn't fall into the hands of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"
Upon hearing Xu Miao's words, most of the people present secretly shook their heads, and no one stood up to agree with his suggestion.
After all, this was the result of a court deliberation, not a commoner's punishment of his servants. How could he simply grant a pardon?
Actually, you can't really blame Xu Miao. After all, before he met Wei Wu, he was basically a stay-at-home guy who sponged off his parents.
They're so engrossed in their own interests that they have no social or life experience to speak of; they're just blinded by concern.
For example, now that no one has responded to his suggestion, Xu Miao is starting to get anxious again.
"Very well, since none of you agree, I will not force you. Even if it is only my Miaohua Academy, I will petition His Majesty on your behalf!"
After saying that, Xu Miao immediately stood up and prepared to leave, believing that there was no point in staying there any longer.
But at that moment, Sun Chang and the others exchanged a glance, and then immediately got up and pulled Xu Miao back.
"Xu Miao, don't worry, we don't disagree, we're just thinking about how to persuade His Majesty!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Miao, who was about to leave, immediately stopped, turned around, and returned to his seat to look at everyone.
He didn't care about saving face; as long as he could rescue Wei Wu, he was willing to give up his life, let alone face.
Sun Chang and the others didn't really agree with Xu Miao's suggestion; they just couldn't think of any other solutions.
To prevent Xu Miao from acting recklessly due to his youthful impulsiveness and causing further complications, they had no choice but to agree.
After all, this is the only way to help Wei Wu a little bit; otherwise, they would just have to sit and wait for their doom.
So, after calming Xu Miao down, the group discussed again the details of submitting a petition to the court to plead for Wei Wu's life.
While the Academy of Sciences was studying the details, the same scene was unfolding at Wei Wu's home.
Brigitte Lin, Liya, Gulnazar, and Dilraba arrived anxiously at Wei Wu's courtyard to find Zhu Yuxuan.
Dilraba and Gulnazar are the youngest and speak without the most reservations, so they immediately spoke to Zhu Yuxuan upon seeing her:
"Sister Yuxuan, young master, young master has been imprisoned by His Majesty. Sister Qingxia said it's because young master is involved in the money shop case."
As soon as Dilraba finished speaking, Gulnazar, who was standing next to her, also spoke up.
"Sister Yuxuan, the young master must have been wronged. You are a princess, could you go to the palace to beg His Majesty to pardon the young master?"
Looking at the four anxious women in front of her, Zhu Yuxuan felt gratified, but also somewhat helpless.
They were comforted by their concern for Wei Wu's safety, but they were also helpless because they knew the inside story and could not tell him directly.
So when Zhu Yuxuan heard what Dilraba and Gulnazar said, she didn't know what to say for a moment.
Seeing Zhu Yuxuan remain silent, Qingxia, the oldest of the four and the only one who had seen some of the world, stepped forward.
Unlike the other girls, she was more mature and knew that some things couldn't be resolved by pleading.
