Chapter 2315: Report
"Ah..." Song Chuan felt that Prime Minister Lan had some truth in his words and couldn't refute it for a while.
Human's nature was indeed the hardest to guess.
And in this matter, what they faced was the fact that there were some people who would not care about anything else and only care about their own benefit.
"Why do you bring me here?" Song Chuan asked.
There were other ministers under Prime Minister Lan and normally speaking, it was not his turn to come. But for some reasons, Prime Minister Lan suddenly sent some people to look for him.
Being a lower ranked minister, Song Chuan couldn't refuse and had to come here to follow Prime Minister Lan's order.
However, it was inevitable that he was curious.
"I want you to talk with the person who reported," Prime Minister Lan replied.
Song Chuan was confused.
He didn't feel that he was a person who was easy to talk to. Moreover, it didn't seem to be useful for him to be the one to step forward, right?
Prime Minister Lan could see Song Chuan's' confusion, but he didn't explain much and only pointed to the distance.
While the teacher has been brought away for the interrogation, the student who made the report was still in the Capital Academy. They had asked him some questions, but looking at the identity of this student, Prime Minister Lan decided to call Song Chuan to do the question instead.
He was sure that it would be more beneficial to ask Song CHuan to come forward.
"Ah?" Song Chuan followed Prime Minister Lan's hand and looked at the student in the distance. When he saw that the person in front of him was Nan Hou Xiang, he was stunned. He glanced at Prime Minister Lan who nodded his head.
"Nan Hou Xiang?" Song Chuan asked in a low voice. Even though Nan Hou Xiang was no longer part of the Nan Family, there were still many people who remembered him. Song Chuan naturally knew about him since Long Qian Xing once investigated the entire Nan Family.
Even if he was slightly smarter than other people, it had not reached the point where he could completely crush them.
Would they value someone like him who was only somewhat better than others?
To be honest, Nan Hou Xiang sincerely doubt it.
He didn't look down on himself, but he knew that he would not worth that much trouble for many people. Perhaps, they could also use him to deal with the Nan Family but Nan Hou Xiang didn't want to be used as a pawn.
It would be better for him to strive for his own future than relying on others. "Minister," Nan Hou Xiang greeted and cupped his fist. He didn't recognize Song Chuan or it was more like, he didn't recognize anyone. It was not like he had any friends in the ministry either.
When his father fell, those who were close to his father were also implicated more or less.
So even if there were some who were still an official, they have no interest to come to Nan Hou
Xiang.
It was already very good if they didn't come to trouble Nan Hou Xiang.
After all, they should hate his father for implicating their families and put them in predicament. These ministers only cared for their own benefit and would not like if other
people bring them down, even if these people used to be their 'friends.'
"Student Nan Hou Xiang," Song Chuan replied with a smile. "There's no need to be so polite. My name is Song Chuan and I'm here to ask you some questions."
Song Chuan?
Nan Hou Xiang turned the list of names from his mind and determined that he didn't know this Song Chuan. He should be a minister who had no connection whatsoever with his father in
the past.
When he thought about this, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Nan Hou Xiang was actually a bit worried that they would pick someone who had grudge against his father to question him. At that time, it was unknown whether he would be able to pass this hurdle safely or not.
