"Why did Your Highness say this?" Luo Guanzhong asked in shock: "I was also present during the previous autopsy. The corpses of the Yingtian Mansion had suicide written on them."
"Don't you know that you can kill people without a knife?" Zhu Zhen said coldly:
"Can't you hear it? Then Zhou Buji came to school in the end, just to force Jijiu or Siye to relent and allow him to repeat another year like the previous seniors."
"Yes, that's what I mean." Luo Guanzhong nodded and said, "In the end, the school was still unmoved, so he killed himself out of despair."
"When a student, use your own life to seek justice - yes, it's just justice. The tenth article of the school rules I memorized when I entered school last month clearly stated that 'Students who cannot be promoted will have to repeat a grade. Repeat one grade.
You will be expelled from school if you fail to pass the exam in 2018, right?"
"Yes." Luo Guanzhong nodded.
"This shows that the school regulations have not been revised so far. Even if it is revised now, 'laws are not retroactive', it should not affect him." Zhu Zhen said solemnly:
"Then what reason does the school have for not allowing him to repeat his studies for another year? Even if he threatens to die, he won't let go. Isn't this murder?"
"What Your Highness said makes sense." Teacher Luo has been a student for a month, so he naturally knows more than Lao Liu. "But this 'Article 10' itself also has problems."
As he said this, he found a copy of "Guozi Academic Rules", turned it over to Lao Liu and said:
"Look at this, 'Sheng Yuan, who is first in the Zhengyi, Chongzhi, Guangye Third Hall, has been familiar with the Confucian classics for one and a half years; those who are smooth in arts and science will be promoted to the Xiandao Chengxin Second Hall to practice for one and a half years, and those who are proficient in both classics and history, and are excellent in both arts and sciences
Only then can you be promoted to Suixing Hall; Suixing Hall implements a points system, and you can graduate with eight points in one year...'"
After a pause, Luo Guanzhong continued: "Then what you just said is that the students cannot be promoted and have to repeat the grade for a year...Have you discovered any problems?"
"Stop trying to sell things off!" Zhu Zhen said angrily.
"Hey." Teacher Luo could only say: "The rules for repeating a grade are at the end. From a grammatical point of view, it can be understood that this is a rule for the entire grade; it can also be interpreted that the rule for repeating a grade is only for Suixingtang, not for Suixingtang.
Including five other classes.”
"Isn't this nonsense? In the absence of other regulations, the other five classes should all abide by the regulations on grade repetition." Zhu Zhenda disapproved and said: "The loopholes in the regulations should be interpreted from the perspective of benefiting students, not the other way around.
.”
"I heard that this was indeed the case in the past." Luo Guanzhong said with a wry smile: "Before, the school had always defaulted to repeating the grade for students who could not successfully advance to a higher grade. However, this caused the school to be overcrowded and there were not enough dormitories to live in."
"Yeah." Zhu Zhen nodded, he was deeply touched by this. With more than 3,000 people crowded into such a small Confucius Temple, they would go crazy.
"If the old students continue to repeat the grade, there will be no room for the newly recruited students this year. In order not to affect the start of the new semester, Song Jijiu and Wang Siye discussed and decided to postpone the return of all old students who have not been promoted. We will look back at how to arrange it.
They." Luo Guanzhong continued:
"But there is a lot of money in the capital. How can Qingshui Yamen like Guozixue find a place to accommodate so many repeaters? At this time, someone suggested that according to the literal meaning of the academic rules, only students from Suixingtang can repeat a year, and the rest can
If they don’t have this qualification in their grade, the school naturally doesn’t need to care about them..."
"That's nonsense!" Zhu Zhen scolded: "A school that teaches and educates people, does it play word games with its own students?"
"So I heard that Song Ne didn't agree at that time." Luo Guanzhong said: "But I know that rumors will change. After the news spread like wildfire, it spread that Guozixue was going to cancel the repetition of middle and lower grades and let the undergraduates directly
Punished to be an official.
"This is what I know about the situation." After saying this, he picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of herbal tea to moisten his throat. He had already forgotten his vow to never drink from this teapot again.
Fortunately, Zhu Zhen didn't bother to ridicule him, and said with an increasingly gloomy face: "If what you said is true, then when Zhou Buji came to school, whether he was offering wine or being a clerk, he would have clarified it to him and said something like, 'Don't worry, there's no such thing.
This is something', 'Be patient, we are still studying it', 'Don't worry, we won't give up on you', etc., to tell him not to do stupid things."
"Yes, it's a bad taste. Every official is afraid of something happening on his own territory." Luo Guanzhong nodded and said repeatedly: "As long as there is hope, Zhou Buji should be able to survive. Only when the hope is completely shattered, will he commit suicide."
.”
"So instead of helping him, the person he met completely killed his hopes!" Zhu Zhen said solemnly: "What do you think this is if it's not murder?!"
"It's really..." Luo Guanzhong sighed and said: "If he really wants to force students to death to cause strife in the officialdom, that would be too insidious and damn worthy."
"Yes, I will never forgive him!" Zhu Zhen slapped the table and said, "Go, bring me that Jin Wenzheng!"
"Yes." Deng Duo responded and hurried to find Team Leader Wang to get the person together.

While waiting for someone to come, Hu Xian came in with several roommates from Yizishe.
"Students pay homage to Xuecheng." Several people hurriedly saluted politely.
"Hahaha, we brothers, don't do this." Zhu Zhen stood up from behind the case with a smile and said, "It's not like you don't know who I am."
"It's just knowing that makes me even more shocked." Tie Xuan said with a wry smile: "It's unimaginable that someone can want to be a student and a teacher in Guozixue."
"That's because you don't know enough." Yang Shiqi smiled and said, "Brother Hong will be the sacrificial wine tomorrow, I won't be surprised."
"It's possible, it's completely possible." Hu Yan also smiled.
"Stop saying a few words..." Ma Junze hurriedly stopped them. If Brother Hong mistakenly thought they were mocking him, wouldn't the boat of friendship be capsized?
"Hahaha." Zhu Zhen was amused and laughed loudly: "It seems that you have guessed my identity a lot."
"Hehe, of course, you would be lying if you said you weren't curious." The roommates laughed and said, "We spent the whole night guessing last night. Of course, Xiao Huang went to bed early and didn't attend the meeting."
"Actually, I told you a long time ago. You are so smart, couldn't you guess it?" Zhu Zhen said with a smile.
"What you are referring to are those two sounds of 'this, my king', right?" Tie Xuan stammered.
"Hahahaha, I knew you were very clear." Zhu Zhen laughed and nodded: "Let's get to know each other again, I am Zhu Zhen, the sixth son of the Ming Emperor."
"Sure enough, it's the King of Chu and His Royal Highness King Hai..." Several people exclaimed. Last night, they assumed that Hong Qi was a prince, and they quickly guessed that it was the King of Chu. However, such unbelievable things must be confirmed before they can be convinced.
ah.
"Students pay homage to His Highness." Ma Junze immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
Yang Shiqi and Hu Yan also knelt down quickly, and even grabbed Tie Xuan and Huang Guan. The two of them also woke up from a dream and knelt down quickly.
"Get up." Zhu Zhen helped them up one by one and said, "I didn't expect you to believe it now? I thought I would have to spend more time talking."
"Your Highness is worrying too much. If you say yes, then it must be!" Ma Junze said excitedly.
Everyone nodded. Smart people believed in their own judgment. Only fools would question it face to face...
