Chapter 350: You haven’t even fully grown your hair yet, and you’re still trying to learn how to fall in love?
She didn't know whether it was destroyed or not.
She only knew that someone wanted to harm someone from the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion. Not to mention disfiguring his face, even taking his life would be possible.
The hundred slaps were never completed. When Qingshan slapped him on the twentieth time, he fainted.
When everyone saw this, they gasped and even breathed carefully.
They looked at the woman in front of them in disbelief. Although the veil covered her face, it could not hide her fierce aura.
At this time, Ji Ziran couldn't help but look up at her.
He knew that when Ji Chenchuan got married, his father gave them the most valuable ginseng in the box, and his sister also gave them a handkerchief she embroidered herself.
However, he did not get these two things, but Ji Chenchuan had everything. He had his grandmother's love, his father's affection and his sister's respect. Now he married a prince's wife, but he had nothing.
So, he was very angry. He was angry that they were not motivated enough, and even more angry that he did not get anything.
So, he didn't give anything and just pretended that this fourth brother didn't exist.
But now, the woman that Fourth Brother married actually stood in front of him? And even taught those people a lesson in front of him?
He looked up and saw a ray of light shining towards her. She was wearing a brocade long dress with layers of folds. She looked both dignified and noble... She was so beautiful that his heart seemed to stop beating at this moment. He didn't dare to blink, as if he was afraid that she would disappear from his sight the next moment.
Lin Qingjun snorted coldly, "Why, do you think this prince's consort has gone too far? You all scolded Ziran, but he only said one word and he has to suffer such a severe punishment, right?"
"Humph, that's because you're just venting your frustrations with a few superficial curses."
"But he, he let you guys fight? That's not just a simple way to vent."
Lin Qingjun glanced at them one by one with a cold gaze, a sneer on his lips.
"Since he was able to take action, and even encouraged you to do so, his goal is not just to humiliate you. He wants to kill the Sixth Young Master of the Wu'an Marquisate."
Want his life?
When the students heard this, their faces turned pale.
"No, no, it's not like that, Princess. We, we didn't intend to take his life."
"Yes, yes, we just wanted to say a few words. We are students preparing for the Autumn Examination. How could we allow ourselves to get into trouble at this time? It would be disadvantageous to us in the future."
"Yes, yes, that's what we thought. We were wrong. Please have mercy on us, Princess. Please forgive us this time."
Boom boom boom.
They knelt down in unison and begged for mercy.
They'd be lying if they said they weren't afraid. They were so young, and they'd made it all the way to Shangjing. They knew how difficult it was. They wanted to achieve academic success and return home. They wouldn't be charged with murder, especially since the victim was the sixth son of the Marquis's family. Not to mention them, even their parents and brothers' lives would be ruined by their momentary confusion.
Lin Qingjun didn't have a trace of sympathy.
They begged for mercy because their interests were damaged, not because they were sincere.
She snorted coldly, "You know you're wrong? Ha, I'm afraid you don't know where you went wrong. You are all students, you should be smarter than ordinary people. Didn't you realize that you were someone's knife in today's incident?"
What?
Hearing this, they were stunned again.
It took them a while to react.
That’s right, it was he who asked them to go up and beat Ji Ziran.
"Ah, it's all your fault, you damned bastard. It was you who made us fight Young Master Ji Liu. We fell for your trick. I'll beat you to death."
"Yes, that's you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have done it."
Even if that person was knocked unconscious, it would not prevent them from venting their anger. If the Crown Princess had not reminded them, they would have been in big trouble.
The unconscious man was beaten awake again. Before he could say anything, he was beaten unconscious again by these angry students.
Lin Qingjun sneered. Just like that, he still wanted to deal with their Sixth Young Master? It was simply wishful thinking.
She then ordered, "One hundred slaps isn't enough. Give the remaining eighty another day. Twenty slaps a day, not one less."
Don’t think that the punishment will go away just because he fainted. Twenty punishments a day are enough for him.
She turned and came to Ji Ziran. Seeing this boy who was even smaller than her, she secretly regretted that she had hit him too hard. Would it be too scary? He was still a young boy who hadn't experienced anything in life. Would it be bad to let him see such a dark side?
Just as she was thinking about how to choose the right words, she didn't expect Ji Ziran to suddenly step forward and bow to her respectfully.
"Thank you very much, Princess, for your help."
Lin Qingjun was stunned for a moment, then corrected himself with a smile.
"What do you mean by Crown Princess? I'm your fourth sister-in-law. Why are we two family members saying thank you?"
"Hey, you chose a good book. There's a lot worth learning in it."
Lin Qingjun pointed at the book he was holding tightly and said again.
Ji Ziran was obviously stunned, and shock flashed across his wide eyes.
"Shi, oh no, Si... um, you, you have read this book too?"
Lin Qingjun looked at his entanglement and twists with a smile. Asking him to call her fourth sister-in-law was indeed a bit embarrassing for the child. After all, he hated Ji Chenchuan.
She replied as if she hadn't noticed, "There are very few books in the Lin Mansion, and I'm a concubine's daughter. Being able to read is already good enough for me. How could I possibly read such a profound book as 'Strategies and Essays'? However, I've heard others say that this book records state policies and is beneficial to the country."
"Since it's a book that benefits the country, I think it must be a good book. Don't you agree, Sixth Brother?"
The word "sixth brother" made Ji Ziran stand there in a daze.
The expression on his face was a little complicated, with surprise, joy, and some incomprehensible feelings that others could not understand.
Ji Ziran opened and closed his mouth again and again, and finally smiled, a rare smile.
"Yes."
Lin Qingjun liked this young man a little. Facing the insults from these people, he was able to not talk back violently, and he did not plead for mercy when these people were punished. This was very rare.
"Here's some silver. It's a gift from my fourth sister-in-law to my sixth uncle."
"We in the Wu'an Marquisate are very poor. We are so poor that we have to be very careful when buying a book. However, no matter how careful we are, when we come across a good book, we will be merciless."
"Take it. I have something else to do and I'll leave first. It's getting late. Uncle Six, please don't linger outside, or you won't give those with bad intentions a chance to take advantage of you."
After saying that, she turned and left.
The green mountains and clear waters followed closely behind, leaving Ji Ziran standing there, looking at the departing carriage with a complicated expression.
As soon as Lin Qingjun got on the carriage, a man hugged her waist tightly. Ji Chenchuan buried his head in her neck and said sullenly.
"Wife, I regret it."
He shouldn't have let her go. Look at the way Ji Ziran looked at Lin Qingjun. It wasn't pure at all. The brat must have fallen in love with her.
He was also numb. He had even put a veil on her, but he was still being targeted by someone, and it was Ji Ziran? Really, did he grow all his hair? He was just learning to fall in love?
How old is he? About fourteen or fifteen years old, still a junior high school student, right?
Ji Chenchuan gritted his teeth and said, "When we get back home, I'll arrange for him to have some strict teachers."
Aren't you going to take the Autumn Examination? Why are you still running around? Why don't you learn some poetry from your teacher?
Ahhh.
Ji Ziran sneezed violently.
"Who's scolding me?"
