Qianxi looked at Jiang Rui and said gravely, "If I studied at home, how could I have met so many talented young people? How could I have known the thoughts of the most outstanding young people in the Great Zhou Dynasty? They say that the more you debate, the clearer the truth becomes. Only by debating with outstanding people can you accumulate knowledge and grow."
Qianxi's subtle flattery pleased everyone in the room.
A noble lady risked being punished and came to the academy disguised as a woman because she felt that the academy had such an outstanding young man like herself. Men could not help but feel proud when they heard this.
Not to mention that Qianxi has a beauty like a lotus emerging from the water, like a fairy from the Moon Palace descending to the mortal world.
Many people were stunned when they saw Qianxi, who they spent every day with.
The chicken leg in Luo Shu's hand fell on the table, and he looked at Qian Xi with shining eyes. The person he had just gossiped about turned out to be the classmate who followed him to pick bird eggs every day?
They even slept in the same bed!
The so-called sharing a bed means that during field training, a group of men sleep together. Qianxi, Jiang Li, Luoshu, Chen Tingnan and the other two are so close that they almost sleep touching each other.
He prided himself on being smart, but he was so confused that he didn't realize Qianxi was a woman!
Luo Shu quickly recovered and looked at Jiang Rui and said, "Your Highness, Qianxi has studied with us for such a long time, and there has never been anything wrong. In my opinion, let her continue to stay in the academy, and there is no need to make a big deal out of this."
Luo Shu spoke first, and Shen Tingnan immediately echoed, "Yes, yes, Your Highness, in the academy, only Qianxi, who loves to play tricks, can compete with me. If she leaves the academy, won't I be lonely in my high position again?"
During the few months she stayed in the academy, with the guidance of Jiang Li, a great Buddha, and Qianxi's own abilities, she thrived in the academy. Seeing Luo Shu and Shen Tingnan take the lead in pleading for Qianxi, many people also pleaded for Qianxi.
Jiang Rui looked at this group of people and cursed them in his heart as idiots.
If he doesn't punish Yun Qianxi and the Yun family today, the ones who will suffer losses in the future will be those who pleaded for Yun Qianxi today!
Those who can study in this academy are all nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This group of people pleading for Qianxi made him feel very embarrassed.
He is the future emperor of the Great Zhou. If these future ministers of the Great Zhou look down on him and think that he is narrow-minded, it will be detrimental to his future management of the Great Zhou.
Jiang Rui said calmly, "Whether Qianxi stays or leaves should be handled according to the laws of the Great Zhou."
Qianxi replied, "Your Majesty, there are no laws or regulations in the Great Zhou Dynasty that explicitly prohibit women from studying in academies."
Jiang Rui was annoyed by Qian Xi's erudition. If it were an ordinary woman, she would be frightened immediately by just mentioning the law and would not dare to respond so arrogantly.
Qianxi looked at Jiang Rui and said, "Qianxi's crime is that she deceived everyone. Confined by common sense, she didn't dare to enroll as a woman, so she came up with the idea of disguising herself as a man, so that she could come to the academy to learn and discuss her merits with you all."
Qianxi always mentioned her classmates present in a vague way, making these noble people of the Great Zhou Dynasty feel that they were on the same side.
With a sense of identification with Qianxi, and with Shen Tingnan and Luo Shu deliberately leading the charge, everyone in the room pleaded for Qianxi. Seeing this, Yun Zhi also naturally hoped that Qianxi would be safe and sound. He knelt in front of Jiang Rui and said, "Your Highness, my sister is young. I hope Your Highness will forgive my crime of cross-dressing."
