Chapter 8 Beating up the prince outside the Imperial College!
Hearing Zhai Heming's words, the smile on Yu Youning's face disappeared. Her fair and chubby little face was tense at this moment. Her round eyes were full of solemnity as she stared at Zhai Heming without blinking.
"Apologize!" Yu Youning said.
Zhai Heming was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then he burst into laughter. "What did you say? Apologize? You actually want me to apologize? Did I say anything wrong? Why should I apologize?"
"You said my father was a bad person! You have to apologize to my father!" Yu Youning said seriously.
The wife of the Marquis of Yong'an said that her father was a bad person, but her mother said that the wife of the Marquis of Yong'an was her elder and her grandmother, and she could not touch her father casually.
But she absolutely does not allow anyone to speak ill of her father!
Zhai Heming suddenly understood, "So that's why you're angry! Humph! I won't apologize! I didn't say anything wrong! Your mother is living out there, what good man could she possibly marry? Look at what you're wearing, so shabby and worn out! What cheap, tattered pompom hair accessories are on your head? If your father had the ability, why didn't he buy you something better? He's not good enough, but he doesn't allow me to say it?"
With every word Zhai Heming said, Yu Youning's expression became more serious, her fair little face became redder and redder, her cheeks puffed up, and she looked as angry as a little puffer fish.
"You spoke ill of my father. I gave you a chance, but you refused to admit your mistake or apologize. So I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
"You want to teach me a lesson?" Zhai Heming laughed even more wantonly. "You're not even as tall as my shoulders! You little bean sprout... No, you're a fat bean sprout! How do you think you can teach me a lesson?"
Yu Youning didn't say anything. He clenched his fists, leaned forward, and rushed towards Zhai Heming.
She ran very fast. Just as Zhai Heming showed a surprised expression, he was knocked away by Yu Youning's head.
Zhai Heming seemed to be thrown out, flying backwards for several feet before falling to the ground.
Yu Youning did not stop and rushed to Zhai Heming in the blink of an eye.
Zhai Heming was in pain from the fall. Seeing Yu Youning standing in front of him again, he was suddenly startled, "You——"
Before he could finish his words, Yu Youning put his hands on his hips and kicked him.
Although he was a small person, he didn't know why he was so strong. Zhai Heming felt like he was hit by a stick, and the pain made him cry loudly.
Zhai Heming's servants and bookboys quickly surrounded him and reached out to grab Yu Youning.
But the little Yu Youning was so slippery that he not only dodged the hand that was grabbing him, but also took advantage of the opportunity to kick Zhai Heming a few more times.
Hearing Zhai Heming's crying getting louder, Yu Youning ran into the gate of the Imperial College, stood at the threshold, and looked down at Zhai Heming.
"You spoke ill of my father and mother. This time I'm just teaching you a lesson. If it happens again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Zhai Heming was helped up from the ground by the servant. His face was covered with tears and snot, and his gorgeous clothes were covered with dust. He looked both embarrassed and ridiculous.
Everyone around watched this scene and burst into laughter.
Zhai Heming was named the crown prince when he was born. He was raised in pampered condition for so many years and had never suffered such grievances, let alone such humiliation.
At this moment, Zhai Heming was both embarrassed and annoyed. He pointed a finger at Yu Youning and said, "Catch her! Beat her hard!"
The servant looked embarrassed and did not move.
If Yu Youning was still outside, they would naturally catch him.
But Yu Youning was now inside the gate of the Imperial College, and they had no way to get in.
Six years ago, the emperor issued an order that those who studied in the Imperial College were not allowed to allow their guards or servants to enter the Imperial College. Anyone who violated the order would be banned from entering the Imperial College for life.
Zhai Heming may not care whether he can study in the Imperial College, but these servants dare not prevent Zhai Heming from entering the Imperial College because of themselves.
If that were the case, then their lives would be over.
Seeing that the servant did not move, Zhai Heming became even more angry.
"You dog slaves! What are you waiting for? If you don't hurry up, I'll chop off your dog heads!"
"Prince Zhai."
A cold voice suddenly sounded, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Although Zhai Heming was reluctant, he had no choice but to perform the student's salute when he saw the person coming.
"I have met Li Jijiu."
The man was named Li Chengming, about forty years old. He was the chief academic officer of the Imperial College and the highest-ranking official in the Imperial College.
Li Chengming has a goatee and a gentle appearance, but his expression is serious and his voice is even colder. "It's almost time for morning reading. Why are you guys making a fuss here instead of going to class?"
Zhai Heming immediately pointed at Yu Youning and said, "Li Jijiu, it's not that the students don't want to go, it's her! She hit me!"
Speaking of this, Zhai Heming felt aggrieved and angry, and tears welled up in his eyes again.
Li Chengming lowered his head and looked at Yu Youning, who was not even as tall as his thigh. "Who are you? Are you also a student of the Imperial College?"
Yu Youning smiled brightly at Li Chengming, "It wasn't like that before, but it is starting today!"
Li Chengming stroked his goatee and said, "Yong'an Marquis Mansion sent someone yesterday saying that my granddaughter Yu Youning will be attending school today. But you?"
"It's me! I'm Yu Youning!"
Li Chengming's expression became even more serious than before. "You just started school today, why did you hit someone?"
Yu Youning looked aggrieved, but her voice was loud and firm, "He was the first to speak ill of my father and mother!"
Zhai Heming immediately said, "I'm not wrong! Your mother is a wanderer and has never received a proper education, and your father is unknown—"
"Prince Zhai!" Li Chengming shouted angrily, his voice as loud as a bell.
Zhai Heming shuddered and shut up instantly.
Li Chengming stared at Zhai Heming intently. "Prince Zhai, the Book of Rites says, 'Those who insult their parents should not share the day and night with them.' How dare you act like a street scoundrel?"
Seeing that Li Chengming was really angry, Zhai Heming subconsciously stood up straight, but he still felt unwilling in his heart and muttered, "My disciple is not wrong..."
"The Yi Zhuan says, 'Words and actions are the key to a gentleman.' Your harsh words are like poisoned arrows, first damaging your own virtue and then incurring criminal penalties. Go copy the Book of Rites and the Book of Filial Piety a hundred times!"
"What!"
Zhai Heming was horrified.
The Book of Filial Piety has about three thousand words, and I have to copy it a hundred times. How long will it take?
"Prince Zhai, are you unwilling?" Li Chengming's eyes turned cold. "If you are unwilling, then don't enter this door again!"
"Disciple is willing!" Zhai Heming said hurriedly.
If he really can't enter the Imperial College again, he will be beaten to a pulp when he returns!
Zhai Heming was filled with anger, and he looked at Yu Youning with blazing eyes, "Jijiu, then are we going to let the matter of her beating me go?"
"What else are you going to do?"
Zhai Heming was angry but dared not say anything, he could only glare at Yu Youning fiercely.
This little bastard, just wait for him!
