"So you think you shouldn't be punished?" the Taoist nun asked with a smile.
This seemed to be an insignificant question, and the answer was probably yes or no, but Jian Chuan couldn't help but become vigilant. His intuition told him that this was a very serious question, and if he couldn't answer it well, he might even have endless troubles.
Therefore, Jian Chuan thought for a moment before answering: "The student is guilty, but there is nothing he can do."
"What's the explanation?" The Taoist nun's eyes brightened again, and she asked with some expectation.
After thinking about it for a moment, Jian Chuan said: "Students have a simple opinion that the law is a one-and-done law. It should not change according to people, nor should it be perfect according to events. Since the law is a law, the so-called legal principles are nothing more than human feelings, and should be interpreted as discretion.
It is not a violation of the law. Therefore, a crime is a crime. If there is no severe punishment, there will be no legislative authority. However, moral rights and wrongs, good and evil, should not come before the law. If morality overrides the law, if things go on like this, it will be the source of chaos."
"So you think that morally speaking, you are right to take action for someone, but according to the Song Dynasty, you plead guilty, right?"
Jian Chuan answered readily this time: "Yes."
"But if you confess your sins but don't admit your mistakes, won't you continue to commit them in the future? Then what use will the law be to you?"
"Students believe that the so-called etiquette and law should be distinguished. Etiquette, which promotes good, and law, which controls evil, should not be confused, let alone stop eating because of choking."
This is said tactfully, but the meaning is actually very simple. You are right, the law is of no use to me. I will still beat those who deserve to be beaten, and I will still collect debts that deserve to be collected. You expect me to be a law-abiding person.
You are a good citizen, you can do it. First, let everyone in the world obey the law and abide by the law. As the saying goes, I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, he will be punished no matter how far away he is. It is nothing more than this.
The Taoist nun obviously understood Jian Chuan's true meaning, but she did not express her position or ask any more questions. Instead, she said: "Well, since you have confessed, you should be punished. Let's do this. A small punishment but a big commandment, five precepts for each person."
, do you agree?"
Hearing this, Jian Chuan wanted to tell the Taoist nun that even if you are a teacher, you can't use the death penalty indiscriminately, but after thinking about it, he didn't say such stupid words after all. Firstly, the majesty of the teacher's way in this era can be strong. Secondly,
Well, Jianchuan also knows
It was a disguised way of protecting the three of them. After all, although it was a bit shameful to be punished by the teacher in public, it was much better than going to the Yamen and getting slapped. You know, when you got to the Yamen, you would not lose the ruler, but strip naked and get spanked.
.
Obviously this was not a difficult multiple-choice question, so Jian Chuan was heartbroken and said bravely: "The student accepts the punishment."
Although Qiu Lanxi and Ge Chunzhu were dissatisfied, they still followed closely and gave up.
At this moment, a female student with a weak hand ran into Mulan Academy, turned around in a moment, and handed the ruler to the Taoist nun.
So the Taoist nun asked: "Who comes first?"
Ge Chunzhu looked guilty and said to Jian Chuan and Qiu Lanxi: "I have caused trouble for you, I will go first."
Qiu Lanxi immediately said: "Yes, yes, you are the one who is responsible for us. How about you take our punishment together? At least you take five of my brother's punishments. You also know that my brother's body and bones are
Weak, one of you and Jian Chuan is fat and the other is thick-skinned, it will be fine if you take a few more hits."
"Qiu Lanxi, you are so shameless." Jian Chuan roared angrily, and then said to Ge Chunzhu: "Chunzhu, you also know that I have to keep my hands for work. Otherwise, you can take my place.
, Don’t worry, I will take good care of you and let you put on your clothes and open your mouth.”
Hearing this, the emotion in Ge Chunzhu's eyes disappeared in an instant, and then he said to the Taoist nun: "Sir, it was Jian Chuan who made a move, and Qiu Lanxi followed closely behind him. The student originally just wanted to start a fight, but he was confused and got involved.
Go in. If we want to fight, we should fight Jianchuan first, and then Qiu Lanxi. As for the student, sir, the student really wishes."
What a dog-eat-dog farce. The onlookers burst into laughter and looked down upon him. If he hadn't been a self-proclaimed scholar, he would have spitted on him.
However, they are still silent, and their admiration is beyond words. This kind of silent brotherhood is so enviable. Don't they understand that no matter how they try to evade, they can't escape their respective boards? Since they know why they still have to
To put it off, in fact, what we want to convey to each other is just a very simple message. It's just five boards. It's nothing. Don't be pretentious.
The Taoist nun was naturally one of the discerning people, and she was more willing to be beautiful as an adult, so she pointed her ruler at Jian Chuan and said without any doubt: "You come first."
Helpless, Jian Chuan could only walk forward and stretched out his left hand tremblingly. He was not pretending, he was really scared.
But when he saw the ruler slapping him, Jian Chuan subconsciously wanted to hide, but the Taoist nun seemed to have some skills and couldn't dodge at all. Then there were five snapping sounds in a row, which were very clear and loud. Looking at Jian Chuan again, his palms were red and bleeding.
, his face was livid, but fortunately he still had the courage to show his face, and he just endured a few muffled groans.
Qiu Lanxi was different. This guy didn't know how to write the word 'face' at all, so before the board fell into his hand, he cleared his throat several times with a howl, followed by a high note that pierced the sky,
They were so shocked that some prison guards even covered their ears.
The third one is Ge Chunzhu. This guy is better than Qiu Lanxi, but not much better. The big guy's ears were hit again. Unfortunately, this guy is too fat and has fat on his hands, so he was beaten after
It looked inconspicuous, much better than the miserable looks of Jian Chuan and Qiu Lanxi, and naturally made the two of them hate it.
After beating the three people, everyone thought that the matter was about to end, even Jian Chuan and the others thought so, but the fact was that the Taoist nun then pointed the ruler at the five beaten people who were supporting each other and gloating next to them.
Said: "Do you know that you are wrong?"
At this time, the five of them were still discussing in low voices how to retaliate against Jianchuan and the others in the future. They were all stunned by the sudden question. One of them asked: "Sir, what's wrong with me?"
Regarding these five people, the Taoist nun changed her face again and scolded her mercilessly: "Insulting classmates is wrong for one thing; bullying a small number with more people is wrong for another; bullying a small number with more people is still invincible, which is wrong for three reasons;
Being wrong without knowing it is wrong in four ways. The four wrongs are combined
Penalty, eight boards for each person, whoever comes first." Then, before the five people could react, someone had already passed by and said: "That's it, come one by one from left to right, I'm not here.
I spent so much time listening to your nonsense."
Okay, you and Jian Chuandong chatted endlessly, but you concluded that we were talking nonsense before we even spoke? You are obviously showing partiality, you really think we are easy to bully.
Then, the person on the far left shouted: "My father is the Ministry of Household Affairs..., ah, it hurts me to death..."
One, two, three, four, five, the sound of snapping boards could not be heard without stopping. When the beating was over, all five people had a look of fear on their faces. There was nothing they could do about it. The Taoist nun's board was much more powerful than the fists and kicks of Jian Chuan and the others.
After the beating, the Taoist nun looked around and shouted: "It's over now, let's all disperse, everyone goes to study their knowledge."
As the Taoist nun led the female supervisors back to Mulan Academy, the crowd dispersed, and the five people who were beaten had long since disappeared. The farce was over. Jian Chuan and the other three looked at each other, but they laughed so hard that they almost burst into tears.
.
Brother, this is how it should be. I don't need you to tell me what's right or wrong. That's the judge's business. What you have to do is come with me.
