Chapter 243 Punished
Chapter 243 Punished
Just as everyone was staring in amazement at Fan Tongda and his group running around the yard.
Deputy Headmaster Jiang, who rushed over after hearing the news, shouted angrily, "Ridiculous, what are you doing? What do you think the academy is?"
After all, it is the academy managed by Second Senior Brother, so we can’t make too much trouble.
Although Fan Tongda and the others were annoying, after this lesson, they probably wouldn't dare to bother her again.
Considering that they didn't kill or burn anything, let's let it go this time.
Xie Lan took a quick look and quietly made some hand gestures, and those playboys who were running around like livestock finally stopped.
But Deputy Principal Jiang's expression did not ease, but became even more severe, "Fan Tongda, what is going on? Who is bullying and forcing you?"
Xie Lan raised his eyebrows. This deputy headmaster didn't even ask any questions, but concluded the matter was bullying and coercion as soon as he opened his mouth. Was he trying to openly protect those playboys?
Fan Tongda had never thought that he would be so embarrassed, especially in front of so many ladies and teachers. He was so angry that he was panting and wanted to destroy the world.
But he had no idea why he had behaved like a dog just now.
Seeing that Fan Tong was extremely angry but could not express his grievances, a lady suddenly pointed at Xie Lan and said, "It was Miss Xie who did this. She used witchcraft to make Master Fan and the others look bad in public."
The lady's words awakened Fan Tongda. Although he had no evidence, he felt that it was Xie Lan who did it.
After all, he came to Hanmeiyuan to find trouble with Xie Lan. It must be her who tricked them into looking bad.
"Mr. Jiang, you are finally here. Yes, it was Miss Xie who bullied us. We beg you to help us get justice."
Huang Ye and several other young masters received Fan Tongda's hint and complained to Deputy Headmaster Jiang, "Miss Xie is so shameless to humiliate us. We beg the Headmaster to seek justice for us."
"Master Fan, I have never seen you before, and I have no grudge against you.
It was you guys who came to our Hanmei Courtyard aggressively to cause trouble for me. Who is bullying whom in this matter? I believe that Deputy Headmaster Jiang will distinguish right from wrong and give me justice. "
Xie Lan felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have let these guys off so easily.
Jiang Qi has been the deputy principal of the Royal Academy for many years and has always dreamed of becoming the top principal, but unfortunately, Yue Changxi is above him.
Fan Tongda knew that what he hated most in his life was being called deputy principal.
Although he wanted to use Jiang Qi to punish Xie Lan, Fan Tongda was not very sure.
However, after hearing what Xie Lan said, he knew that the other party was in trouble.
as predicted.
Jiang Qi glared at him and said coldly, "Xie Lan, as a student of the Royal Academy, you dare to defy the rules of the academy and bully your classmates.
You are punished to go to the stable today and brush all the horses clean and clean the stable.
You are not allowed to eat lunch if you have not finished your work. You must wait for the steward to inspect and approve it before you can leave the academy and return home.
If there is disobedience, the punishment will be increased.”
None of the ladies present had expected that it would be someone from their own Hanmei Courtyard who reported Xie Lan to the deputy headmaster, and they had never expected that Jiang Qi would punish Xie Lan by making him clean the stables.
In the academy, teachers have many ways to punish students.
But the emperor has always been somewhat lenient towards these ladies. Even if they made mistakes, they were usually punished by copying books or something like that, and rarely were they asked to do physical work.
After all, girls are shy and haven't gotten married yet. If the degree of punishment is not well controlled and affects their future marriages, the elders in the family will definitely be dissatisfied with the academy.
Deputy Principal Jiang's punishment was really excessive, not to mention that Xie Lan had done nothing wrong.
"Fan Tongda, Miss Xie didn't provoke you. It was you who brought people to our Hanmei and wanted to cause trouble for her. Do you think we are blind and can't see that you are confusing right and wrong?" "Yes, we can all testify that it was Fan Tongda who wanted to bully Miss Xie."
"Yes, Miss Xie had been attending class in our Qian class in a very orderly manner. As soon as the get out of class was over, Fan Tongda came over and yelled at Miss Xie to get out."
Although the girls in Hanmeiyuan have various conflicts on a daily basis, they are all internal.
Now that we are being bullied by the male students, it is natural for everyone to unite and fight against the enemy.
Jiang Qi didn't expect that so many people would defend Xie Lan. He wanted to protect Fan Tongda and the others, but it was obvious that those teachers were not in a good mood, so he didn't want to do anything too much openly.
"Xie Lan, since you said that you and Fan Tong are strangers and have no grudges against each other, then why would he come to trouble you for no reason?
"It's not without reason," Xie Lan faced Jiang Qi's questioning calmly without any panic.
"The reason why Master Fan is looking for trouble with me is because he wants to fight for the justice of Prince Xue of Pingyang Marquis's Mansion."
Fan Tongda originally wanted to deny it, but the words he said were completely different.
"Miss Xie is just the daughter of the chief clerk. It is a blessing for her to be taken as a concubine by Master Xue.
Miss Xie doesn't know what's good for her and taunts and insults the prince. What's wrong with me standing up for the prince?"
As soon as Fan Tongda said this, the faces of the teachers present changed.
Pingyang Hou was corrupt and accepted bribes. Anyone with a brain would know that this violated the emperor's taboos.
Not only did the idiot Fan Tongda not avoid suspicion, he was even reckless and wanted to fight for Master Xue.
Although the emperor is still wise, his mind is unpredictable. If he thinks that their academy has a close relationship with Marquis Pingyang, or even stands on the side of the second prince, they would be dead soon.
“Xue Shirong was wrong, but Xie Lan was also impolite to ridicule him in public.
This is Hanmei Academy. Fan Tong and his gang ignored the academy rules and came here to cause trouble, so they deserve to be punished."
Those teachers' words undoubtedly implied that Jiang Qi's punishment was unfair.
Although he was angry, Jiang Qi wanted to get rid of the title of deputy principal and become the head of the academy, which required the support of the teachers in the academy.
"I was inconsiderate. Since both parties are at fault, we should be punished together. You should clean the stables together and you must not disobey."
Fan Tongda's face looked very unhappy. He didn't expect that they didn't find Xie Lan today, but instead lost face. Now they had to be punished to clean the stable.
It's really a loss for the lady and the soldiers.
Xie Lan was not angry. She was regretting that she had not been lenient with Fan Tongda and the others just now. She took this opportunity to give them a good beating.
There is one more that cannot be let go.
Xie Lan pointed at the young lady who accused her of using witchcraft to embarrass Fan Tong and said, "Deputy Headmaster Jiang, Luo Guiyao just slandered me, shouldn't she also be punished?"
Luo Guiyao's heart tightened and she was about to defend herself, but Jiang Qi was in no mood to listen.
"As students of the academy, classmates should support each other, but Luo Guiyao slandered her classmates at will, which is a big mistake.
I will punish you by making you clean the stables together and writing a self-review for the Master."
Jiang Qi said this with a sullen face, then he flicked his sleeves and left.
Maybe he passed the message, but the manager in charge of the stables came over quickly and took Xie Lan and the others to the stables.
