Chapter 274 Are you crazy?
"Maybe I remembered it wrongly, it's not fifty taels of gold..."
Zhang Qi lowered his head, feeling a little overwhelmed.
Seeing this, Jiang Tunan spoke again,
"Miss Zhang, can you ask for fifty taels of gold just because you made a mistake?"
Perhaps irritated by Jiang Tunan's relentless tone, Zhang Qi shouted at Jiang Tunan,
"I just remembered it by accident. Is it necessary for you?"
"you..."
Jiang Tunan was about to refute Zhang Qi, but was interrupted by Princess Guangping.
"Alright, it's just a misunderstanding. It's true that Ye Ruzhen soiled Zhang Qi's skirt. Zhang Qi just needs to return the extra money."
Princess Guangping had a headache, these girls could quarrel with her all the time just for a tiny matter. She could see that Zhang Qi was just making things difficult for her, and Jiang Tunan stood up for his friend and just gave the two of them a lecture, there was no need to make things too ugly.
Jiang Tunan was a little anxious when he saw that Princess Guangping was trying to keep things quiet. Zhang Qi came up with a plan when he saw that Princess Guangping was not making things difficult for him.
"Dean, Jiang Tunan did not follow the rules and disrespected the Discipline Hall. He should be punished with five strokes of the cane."
This time it was Jiang Tunan who was confused. When had she been disrespectful to the Discipline Hall?
Princess Guangping looked at Nanny Yi, who nodded and said,
"According to the regulations, that is indeed the case."
Shangguan Ruoyi squeezed to the front with great effort. Seeing Jiang Tunan's expression, she knew that she didn't know the rules of the Discipline Hall, so she said loudly,
"Tunan, if a girl's school student wants to ask someone from the Discipline Hall to adjudicate a dispute, they should first report to their own school's sleeve order, and then have the sleeve order report to them. They can only come to the Discipline Hall after the steward approves it. If they come to the Discipline Hall without reporting, it will be considered disrespectful and they will be punished with a stick."
Jiang Tunan was silent, and Ye Ruzhen and Ji Lingyue beside him were also silent.
"Ling'er, do you know about this?"
Ji Lingyue shook his head in frustration. Ye Ruzhen thought to herself that she was doomed.
"I do not know either."
It’s just that the three of them were new here and had no idea there was such a rule. No wonder everyone else looked at them with admiration along the way.
"I'll give you the extra money, but you better take care of the board."
Zhang Qi slowly loosened her hands, and Jiang Tunan and the others' pile of jewelry fell to the ground.
Jiang Tunan's face looked a little ugly. Her reaction pleased Zhang Qi. Zhang Qi slowly approached Jiang Tunan and spoke in a very low voice into Jiang Tunan's ear.
"From now on, I will take better care of your friends in Xinglan Academy."
Jiang Tunan's pupils shrank, and Zhang Qi had an arrogant smile on his face.
Meng Jingchen in the distance spoke faintly,
"It seems like she really doesn't know."
Meng Yao just watched the show, shaking his head and said,
"It seems that someone has lost more than he gained~"
In just a moment, she felt Meng Jingchen's eyes sweeping over her. Meng Yao felt a little scared by Meng Jingchen's stare.
"What's wrong, brother?"
"It seems that you have been doing well in your studies recently and have time to come and watch the fun. In that case, copy the article ten more times tonight to consolidate your knowledge."
Meng Yao:?
Xiao Mingrui and the other man standing a little closer to the front were also in a dilemma. Xiao Mingxu's face was clearly filled with worry.
"What should I do? Can Xiao Nannan withstand the beating?"
Although there were only five hits, it was really painful. Besides, Xiao Mingxu remembered that Jiang Tunan had been in poor health since childhood, and he was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the beating.
"No, I'm going to beg for mercy."
Xiao Mingxu took a step forward and then stepped back.
"It just happened to be Princess Guangping. I'm afraid she'll see us Xiao family members get punished even more severely."
Xiao Mingrui calmed Xiao Mingxu and said,
"Don't be hasty. Now that everyone is watching, even if the princess wants to reduce the sentence, it will be difficult to change it with so many eyes watching. We will go find Princess Guangping after there are fewer people."
When students are punished in the Discipline Hall, no one is allowed to watch. This is to give the punished students a little dignity.
"You go find Qi Guanming, and I'll find Master Zhang."
"it is good."
The Master Zhang mentioned by Xiao Mingrui is called Zhang Shouze. He is the manager of the Discipline Hall who is responsible for handling the affairs of the Men's Courtyard. Zhang Shouze was originally an official of the Honglu Temple. After he retired from the Honglu Temple, he came to the Imperial College. Xiao Mingli also went to the Honglu Temple on his recommendation.
So Xiao Mingrui was thinking of persuading Zhang Shouze to plead for Jiang Tunan, while Xiao Mingxu went to find Qi Guanming, which would be safer.
"I am willing to be punished!"
Xiao Mingxu and Xiao Mingrui were both shocked, and even Meng Jingchen did not expect Jiang Tunan to react like this.
Jiang Tunan knelt directly in front of the Discipline Hall and raised his student token above his head.
"This student is hereby suing Zhang Qi, the daughter of the Minister of War..."
"Jiang Tunan!"
Princess Guangping's voice was filled with anger, but the emotion in her eyes clearly reminded Jiang Tunan that
"If female students casually report their classmates, the consequences will be very serious."
"Students are willing to take responsibility."
Jiang Tunan held her breath in her heart. Zhang Qi's arrogant look just now seemed to have made things difficult for Ye Ruzhen in Xinglan Academy. No wonder she felt that Ye Ruzhen was acting weird recently.
It would be a lie for Jiang Tunan to say that he had never been excluded since he was a child. Children without parents are always seen as different by people of that age.
Jiang Tunan still remembers the song that a group of children sang around him at that time, as well as the nonchalant explanation given by the children's parents afterwards.
Therefore, Jiang Tunan could not let go of such bullying incidents.
"What are you going to sue her for? For not wearing the dress code for girls?"
Princess Guangping didn't know why Jiang Tunan was so stubborn. She only knew that if Jiang Tunan really wanted to sue, the matter would definitely reach the ears of the emperor.
The establishment of girls' schools had already been opposed by many officials. If they were to find a reason to participate in the schools, it would certainly bring a lot of trouble to me.
"Daxing law stipulates that if someone fabricates facts or conceals the truth for the purpose of illegal possession and defrauds more than 300 taels of silver, he or she can be prosecuted."
Princess Guangping was stunned for a moment, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she spoke seriously,
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
If Jiang Tunan was just making a fuss about his attire or deceiving his classmates, it could be resolved in the Discipline Hall. But if it were to become a legal issue, it would no longer be something the Discipline Hall could handle.
"The student knows that the evidence is irrefutable and the student did not lie, but..."
Jiang Tunan looked up and met the gaze of Princess Guangping.
"If the princess wants to keep things quiet, the document is in your hands now, just destroy it."
"Are you crazy?"
Zhang Qi's eyes were full of shock. It was just such a small matter, but Jiang Tunan actually raised it to the legal level. If she succeeded in her appeal, her life would be over.
Xiao Mingrui and Xiao Mingxu looked at each other, and Xiao Mingxu murmured,
"Xiao Nannan is playing with fire."
"enough!"
Chengzhang Xiangjun knocked the ground with his cane, his tone brooking no refusal.
"This matter ends here!"
