Chapter 1777: The Jiao King surrendered

Views:

As soon as Dong Wencong left, Wu Jun sent a letter to Fang Yunfa to complain.

"Fang Xusheng, I'm afraid you don't need to come to Qingjing. The scholars of Qing country are too cunning. Because the East Saint Pavilion issued an unreliable call, no matter who our Wu country scholars find, they all use the excuse of preparing to go to Liangjie Mountain and not participating in the literary competition and literary battle in the near future. Not only that, they also righteously scolded us Wu people for taking advantage of the chaos of the monsters and barbarians to fight among ourselves. The contemptuous look in their eyes made even me feel ashamed! However, this matter cannot end! I will definitely find a way to make King Qing and Qing country lose face!"

"Don't you think they lost enough face in front of Yueyang Tower?" Fang Yun replied.

"Yes, they are also shameful enough. When I first arrived in Qing, I looked at the fortune of Qing. When Xiangzhou was taken back by you, Qing's fortune had already been reduced by 10%. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was reduced by another 10%! This is a huge blow to the Zong family, Qing Jun and all the officials of Qing. But you have to be careful, the Zong family, the Lei family and Qing Jun are people who will not wait for revenge. Remember!"

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Wu."

Fang Yun sat in the chair and thought for a while. Just as he was about to continue handling government affairs, the governor's guard knocked on the door with a strange look on his face and said, "Your Excellency, a young man who claims to be the Dongting Jiao King wants to see you."

"Then let him in." Fang Yun said as he continued to look through the documents.

Others would flip through documents one by one, page by page, but Fang Yun held a foot-thick document in his hand and threw it casually. All the documents floated in the air, and then each page of the document was turned quickly as if blown by a strong wind.

Fang Yun's eyes were glowing with a faint white light, and every document was reflected clearly in his eyes.

However, after three breaths, all the documents returned to their original state. Fang Yun moved his right hand, and some of the documents fell on the right side, and some fell on the left side.

Fang Yun opened the document on the right and wrote a simple "review completed" or "approval", then took the document on the left and wrote his opinions neatly at the end of each document.

After reviewing all the documents, Fang Yun looked up and saw a young man with two small horns on his head standing at the door with a humble smile on his face.

Seeing Fang Yun looking up, the young man bowed hurriedly and said, "I am the King of Dongting Jiao, greeting Wen Xing Long Jue."

Fang Yun nodded slightly and said, "Well, if you have anything to say, tell me."

The Dongting Jiao King hurriedly said, "I want to clarify one thing with you. I had no idea that my father was patrolling the river this time. If I had known, I would have warned him in advance. Although Dongting Lake is part of the Yangtze River, we Dongting water monsters are not very close to the Jiaolong Palace. You may have heard that I have an ordinary background and cannot enter the Jiaolong Palace. Even if I enter, my brothers and sisters will laugh at me. I was begging my father for many days before I got the title of Dongting Jiao King. In the eyes of my brothers and sisters, Dongting Lake is just a small lake. Their goal is the sea."

"How is your father now?" Fang Yun looked at the Dongting Dragon King while sorting out the documents.

Dongting Jiao Wang hesitated for a moment and said, "In fact, you will soon know that my father has left Jiao Sheng Palace, went to the South China Sea Dragon Palace, borrowed a treasure, and then left Shengyuan Continent, and I don't know where he went. I heard from my friends in Jiao Sheng Palace that Jiao Sheng seemed to have borrowed a treasure that can travel quickly in the starry sky."

Fang Yun frowned slightly, countless possibilities emerged in his mind, but he was not sure what Jiao Sheng was going to do. He sighed in his heart, Jiao Sheng leaving Jiao Sheng Palace was a big deal, but he did not have enough power to detect it at all. And those saints who could detect it would not send someone to tell him on purpose.

"Very good, this news is very important to me, and I see your sincerity." Fang Yun said.

Dongting Jiao King was overjoyed and said, "Although I am a member of Jiao Sheng Palace, according to the agreement between the two tribes, I should also be subject to the jurisdiction of local officials. Moreover, you are Wenxing Longjue, so these are what I should do."

"Aren't you afraid that the Jiao Sheng Palace will punish you?" Fang Yun asked.

Dongting Jiao Wang said sourly: "They don't care about a little Jiao Wang like me who is far away from Jiaolong Palace. Besides, if you don't say it, no one will say it."

Fang Yun smiled slightly, and was basically certain that the Dongting Dragon King was frightened by the Yueyang Tower Literary Society, so he betrayed the Jiaolong Palace.

"I understand. Remember to help the human race and ensure that Jingguo has good weather and good harvests. Don't act arrogantly on the human race's territory!" Fang Yun emphasized the word "Jingguo".

The Jiao King thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty Wenxing Longjue, don't worry, I will make sure that the weather around Dongting Lake is good and the rainfall is better than that of other countries."

"That's good, there's nothing else, go down first."

"Yes, sir!" Dongting Jiao Wang left the study, but after a while, he stood outside the door and knocked.

"Is there anything else?" Fang Yun changed his humble attitude and said expressionlessly.

Dongting Jiao Wang was startled and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty Wenxing Longjue, I'm fine, I'm just a little nervous lately, and I want to ask you for a word of reassurance."

The Dongting Dragon King looked at Fang Yun nervously.

Fang Yun did not answer immediately, but looked up after reading a document and said, "If you behave yourself, I will ensure that you will always be the master of Dongting Lake."

Upon hearing this, Dongting Jiao Wang knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed three times, and cried, "Wen Xing Longjue's great kindness, I am grateful to you forever!"

"Well, go down and remember to benefit the people." Fang Yun said.

"Yes, sir!" The Dongting Dragon King wiped his tears and left.

Fang Yun shook his head slightly. He didn't expect the Dongting Dragon King to be so scared. But then he thought, if it were someone else, he would probably have to do the same, betting on both sides and trying to please both sides.

Since the dispute between Wu and Qing has come to a temporary end, many people are no longer interested in going to Qingjing.

The largest migration of scholars in the history of Shengyuan Continent began.

After spending three or five days in Baling City, scholars from various countries crossed the river and headed north to the Wudao River in Ji County, Dayuan Prefecture, Jiangzhou.

A few people plan to stay in Wudao River for a few days and then leave, while most people will continue to head north, first to Qingjing and then to Ning'an County to experience the appearance of the first county of the human race.

After arriving in Ning'an County, most people will prepare to return to their homes, but some will choose to stay in Ning'an County to help Jingguo resist the barbarians, and some will return to Wudao River and study and practice by the Wudao River for a long time, striving to break through their literary status.

In addition to scholars from various countries, there were also civilians from some countries who came to Baling City this time. Fang Yun took in all those who came to him for refuge. At the same time, he checked the background of all of them through the Holy Academy. If there were any crimes committed, he would arrest them directly and sentence them without any leniency.

If he met someone who was harmed or wronged, Fang Yun would pretend to be ignorant, treat everyone equally, and give everyone the same treatment as the people of Xiangzhou.

Fang Yun also received news from various places.

The entire Lei family was in grief. All members of the Lei family were sworn enemies with Fang Yun and vowed to kill him. Only the new head of the family, Lei Konghe, had an uncertain attitude and he has not made a clear statement so far.

The clan members changed their usual high profile and, after the Dongsheng Pavilion issued a notice, they all reduced their activities like animals in winter. Especially those geniuses who did not go to Yueyang Tower, all disappeared.

Qing Jun was the most unlucky. After the incident at Yueyang Tower, his health took a turn for the worse. Even after inviting great doctors and magical objects, it was of no use and he could only recuperate slowly.
