"Fang Yun!" Zong Ganyu roared, filled with rage, as if he could destroy the city and overturn the entire Yueyang Tower with just one roar.
Fang Yun glanced at Zong Ganyu indifferently and said, "I am here to handle the internal affairs of my Jing State. All the idlers should stay away. Come here!"
"General Mo is here!" Fang Shouye walked over.
"Qingjiang Merchants' chief manager Ge Baiwan used the identity of a merchant to collude with Qing officials and command his nephews and the merchant's people to cause trouble in Xiangzhou and attack Jing State. This is truly a heinous crime! Arrest him and put him in jail to await trial!"
"Yes, sir!" Fang Shouye said, and rushed towards Ge Baiwan with a group of ferocious soldiers.
Ge Baiwan retreated quickly, and the rest of the Qing officials or scholars stood up and stood in front of Ge Baiwan.
Fang Shouye was quickly blocked by the people of Qing and was unable to capture Ge Baiwan.
Qing Jun suddenly flipped the table in front of him and pointed at Fang Yun, angrily saying: "Fang Yun, don't go too far! At the literary gathering, you repeatedly insulted my Qing people. After the literary gathering, you killed my Qing friendly guests. Now you are even arresting my Qing merchants. It's simply lawless! I have reported to the Holy Court of Punishment, reporting you for killing the Jinshi of the clan and the adopted son of the aristocratic family!"
"I have already reported it!" a Qing State University Scholar said coldly.
"I have also reported it!"
Many Qing officials expressed their support for Emperor Qing.
Holy Court, Punishment Hall.
The on-duty elder Gao Mo sat in the study, smiling bitterly. Several clerks were already standing inside the door, and dense footsteps could be heard outside.
Then, clerks came in one after another, each holding several pages of documents in their hands.
Gao Mo took it and saw that the content was all about reporting Fang Yun.
Many scholars from the Criminal Hall stood outside Gao Mo's study, waiting for Gao Mo's instructions.
Gao Mo said helplessly: "You should have learned about the Yueyang Tower incident from the discussion board. Now there are documents like snow, all pointing to Fang Xusheng. Tell me what you think."
Everyone remained silent. This involved aristocratic families, two countries and the Void Saint. Only a fool would speak out of turn.
"Hmph!" Gao Mo snorted coldly. No one spoke, and he couldn't even find a way to express his opinion in a tactful way.
Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent.
"Zhang Yi, tell me what you have to say." Gao Mo looked at a Jinshi.
The scholar thought for a long time before he slowly said, "Look."
Everyone was stunned, then they realized what was going on and were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Asshole!" Gao Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that Zhang Yi, who usually loved to talk and laugh, didn't dare to say anything at this moment.
"Ruan Zhe, you go ahead." Gao Mo looked at the scholar who usually loved to joke.
Ruan Zhe looked helpless. Now he couldn't say "see".
"This matter...either we have to resolve it quickly, or we can delay it until no one cares anymore, and then it will be easier to resolve."
"What if it's a quick battle?"
"Punish him directly. Fang Xusheng has already been punished once for resisting the Punishment Hall, so he is not afraid of itching. However... he can use the privileges of a Void Saint to reduce the punishment. After all, Ge Yiming has repeatedly provoked him and has the intention to kill him. It is not a big crime for Fang Xusheng to kill him."
At this time, a Hanlin said, "Back then, Ji Zhibai harmed Fang Xusheng's family and went to Ning'an to provoke. Our Criminal Court could have turned a blind eye. But today, Ge Yiming was just arguing verbally, and Fang Xusheng attacked in front of millions of people. Not only can our Criminal Court not delay this, but we must immediately send people to investigate. This must be resolved in a short period of time."
Gao Mo said: "In fact, Ge Yiming's death is a small matter, and Lei Chongmo's death is a big matter. Now Fang Xusheng admitted that he killed Lei Chongmo, and Zong Ganyu sent me a letter directly, asking for a thorough investigation of the matter in the name of the elder of Dongsheng Pavilion!"
Everyone in the Punishment Hall looked at each other, and then lowered their heads again.
“Forget it. I will immediately rush to Qingjing through the literary world, and then rush to Yueyang Tower with all my strength!”
Gao Mo hurriedly walked out of the ceremonial hall and was heading for the passage to the literary world, but he found that Wu Jiu, the elder on duty in the ceremonial hall, was walking towards him with a frown on his face.
"Laojiu, what are you doing..."
Wu Jiu said: "If my guess is correct, you should also go to Baling City and accompany me."
"Did Zong Ganyu also send you a document?"
"Of course. He said that Fang Yun's killing of Lei Chongmo and Ge Yiming was not only against the law, but also against etiquette, and the Palace of Rites must intervene. I contacted the other elders, and they all pretended not to see anything. I am on duty today, so I can only go alone. Fortunately, you are here, otherwise I would be even more worried."
"Alas... This is a really difficult matter. If things go wrong, we will have to hold a public discussion, which will certainly not produce a satisfactory result. In the end, I'm afraid we will have to ask the saints to step in."
"On one side is the Void Saint who just made great contributions in Liangjie Mountain, and on the other side is the Lei Family and Qing Jun. Not to mention you and me, even a Half Saint would have a headache."
"Let's go, we'll talk about it when we get there."
"Let's go. If we go early, we might be able to watch a good show. This matter will never end so easily."
Baling City, under the Yueyang Tower.
Fang Shouye and his soldiers rushed left and right, but were always blocked by the people of Qing. Finally, Fang Shouye looked at Fang Yun helplessly.
Fang Yun sneered and said, "Can't you catch an outsider on the land of my Great Jing Kingdom? What are the weapons in your hands for? Whoever dares to stop me will be beaten!"
After Fang Yun finished speaking, he touched the official seal, and the power of the holy temple sealed and protected all the people of Ge Baiwan.
Fang Shouye shouted "I got the order", grabbed the water and fire stick from the officer behind him, and smashed it at the scholar in front of him.
Those scholars were used to writing war poems and were not good at hand-to-hand combat. Now that the Wen Palace was sealed, they dared not obstruct Fang Shouye and retreated to both sides in embarrassment.
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Ge Baiwan stood still and said, "Fang Xusheng, what evidence do you have to arrest me? I have the Duanmu legacy bestowed by Lord Qing, and I am a legitimate businessman. How can I allow you to slander me!"
Fang Yun said casually: "If the suspect dares to speak again, slap him hard!"
"Yes, sir!" Fang Shouye rubbed his palms and stared at Ge Baiwan.
Ge Baiwan was suddenly speechless and looked at Fang Yun helplessly. Even though he had been active in the business world, even though he had dealt with the powerful and wealthy, even though he had built a huge business, and even though he had rich experience, he was ultimately just a juren and did not even have the right to speak in front of Fang Yun.
"Fang Yun, you've gone too far!" Qing Jun yelled, seeming to have lost his mind.
Fang Yun ignored Qing Jun and looked at Qing Guan of Xiangzhou.
All the officials who celebrated the event changed color.
Ge Yiming's blood has not dried yet.
Suddenly, Zong Ganyu's tongue burst into spring thunder.
"Welcome to the elders from the Hall of Punishment and the Hall of Etiquette." Zong Ganyu stood up and looked in the direction of Qingjing.
Many people also looked over and saw two great scholars in purple robes flying towards them at an extremely fast speed at the end of the sky. Experienced people could tell at a glance that the two of them used the talents of the Holy Temple to accelerate, and their speed exceeded ten times that of a bell, which was faster than the verbal battles of many great scholars.
When the people of Jing heard about the Ceremonial Hall and the Punishment Hall, their hearts skipped a beat.
Fang Yun's friends sent him letters or messages, reminding him not to be impulsive again and to be careful.
Soon, Gao Mo, the elder of the Criminal Hall, and Wu Jiu, the elder of the Etiquette Hall, arrived at Yueyang Tower and slowly landed at the foot of Yueyang Tower.
