After the three of them laughed, Guo Zitong told Fang Yun about what had happened in the Ten Kingdoms in recent days. Apart from the three major events, the most important thing was that the Lin Man, Sha Man and Xue Man were ready to make a move. Even the capital sent a team of a thousand people to constantly harass and even massacre small groups of humans.

"Nothing happened in the court, right?" Fang Yun asked.

Jiang Hechuan and Guo Zitong looked at each other, and Guo Zitong said, "After learning that the demon race had launched the Moon Tree Divine Punishment in advance, the left prime minister suddenly proposed to give you a higher title. Although it was a variety of honorary titles, they were all titles that could only be given to officials of the first or second rank. At the same time, he also proposed to give Yang Yuhuan a third-rank imperial lady, and even asked for the ninth-rank titles for your nephews!"

"He is smart. He knows that I will die. If he suppresses me again, it will definitely arouse public anger, so he pretends to be righteous." Fang Yun criticized the left prime minister Liu Shan without any hesitation.

Jiang Hechuan remained silent. Guo Zitong said, "Of course! As long as you die, most of the officials who were hesitant before will turn to support him again. He is just trying to win people's hearts at this moment."

Jiang Hechuan suddenly asked: "Can you ask for help from the dragon clan?"

Fang Yun shook his head and said, "The dragons and demons also have a contract. The dragons can help humans defend Liangjie Mountain, but that's because if they don't help, humans will be exterminated. And this time, the Moon Tree God's punishment is aimed at me alone, and the dragons have absolutely no reason to help me. I'm already thankful that they don't come to steal my Ancestral Dragon's true blood."

"That's true. The dragon race is probably trying to take your Ancestral Dragon Blood. According to the agreement between the human race and the dragon race, the human race should hand over the Ancestral Dragon Blood to the dragon race, but your situation is special. The Ancestral Dragon Blood flew into your Wen Palace on its own initiative, so it's difficult for them to take it by force."

"Except for the East Sea Dragon Clan, which has a close relationship with our Jing Nation, the other three sea dragon clans are probably looking forward to your death. As long as you die, the Ancestral Dragon's true blood will definitely become the property of the dragon clan."

"If the West Sea Dragon Clan hadn't deliberately let the evil king in this time, you would have had a much smoother time ascending the Dragon Platform!" Guo Zitong said.

Jiang Hechuan said, "Oh, right. Please write all the war poems you wrote in Denglongtai for me so that I can take a good look at them."

So Fang Yun wrote the sword-calling poem "Dragon Sword Poem" and the Jinshi war poem "White Horse" as well as other war poems.

Jiang Hechuan and Guo Zitong appreciated the work carefully and kept exclaiming in admiration.

"Good! No wonder you can be called the ancestor of poetry. The conception of the whole poem is really wonderful. It's rare that you can come up with it at an emergency moment. At the beginning, you wrote 'sword comes out', then 'sword separates', then 'sword hides', and finally 'sword meets'. If this poem can't summon the sword, then there will be no other poetry in the world that can summon the sword! And your "White Horse" is comparable to Cao Zhi's "White Horse". Your poem not only contains the sentiment of fighting against the barbarians for the country in Cao's poems, but also the nobleness and arrogance that are not found in Cao's poems!" Jiang Hechuan said.

Guo Zitong continued, "What the Minister said is very true! If the two White Horse Generals were real people, the generals in Cao's poem would be more useful to our human race. However, the two White Horse Poems emphasize single combat. Your White Horse Poem seems to be slightly better because it has a proud character! However, since both poems are based on ancient Yuefu poems, you might as well change them. It will be easier for future scholars to learn."

“Then let’s change it to ‘The White Horse Hero’.” Fang Yun said.

"That's good."

"You've used your ability to multitask so many times, there isn't much left, right?" Guo Zitong asked.

"It should be able to be used several times." Fang Yun said.

"That's good."

The three of them flew all the way without encountering any obstacles.

Other scholars from the Holy Academy can be directly teleported to the Holy Academy from the Sea Eye, but Fang Yun wants to return to Jingguo. This is the only way to fly, there is no shortcut.

Capital city, the residence of the left prime minister.

In the study, Liu Shan, the current left prime minister, was practicing calligraphy. After writing the last word, he put the paper on the other side, but the words seemed to have turned into bones, supporting the flat paper and making it stand on the desk.

The three realms of calligraphy, words and ink become bones.

Liu Shan looked at the paper, and the force supporting the paper disappeared immediately. The paper lay flat on the table again, pressing on another piece of paper.

Liu Shan placed the new paper on the ink-absorbing wool felt, then picked up the pen to continue writing when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Squeak..."

A servant pushed the door open and said, "Your Excellency, Fang Yun has returned to the capital."

"Okay, I understand. Go ahead." Liu Shan then waved his hand and continued writing.

After the man closed the door, Liu Shan suddenly reached out and placed his hand on the official seal.

A wild goose flew out and turned into words that appeared in front of Liushan. It was a letter from a distant friend.

When Liu Shan finished reading the letter, the words suddenly exploded and formed new words.

"Fang Yun has obtained the true blood of the Ancestral Dragon. He seems to be protected by a mysterious power on the Dragon Platform. To prevent any changes, stop him from participating in the examination!"

But in the blink of an eye, the new text disappeared silently.

The originally indifferent expression of the Left Prime Minister Liu Shan changed slightly, as if a knife tip suddenly appeared in a pile of cotton, full of danger.

"The true blood of the Ancestral Dragon? Protection from a mysterious power?" Zuo Xiang fell into deep thought.

Before Fang Yun got home, a large number of letters were sent by wild geese to his official seal. Fang Yun quickly checked and replied. Most of them were from people who cared about him, and many of them were good friends.

The scholars from the Shengyuan Academy who entered Denglongtai with him also sent him letters, asking whether he had arrived in the capital safely.

Jiang Hechuan's meteoric rise landed in front of the door of No. 1 upper dormitory of Jingguo Academy.

"You should have a good rest today, and we can deal with everything tomorrow. I won't disturb you two!" Jiang Hechuan said with a smile and left.

The main door opened a crack and a white shadow flew out.

"Oh! Oh!" Nunu cried excitedly and threw herself into Fang Yun's arms.

Fang Yun stroked it as he walked into the door, and the first thing he saw was Yang Yuhuan's excited face and concerned eyes.

"I'm fine, everything is fine." Fang Yun said with a smile.

Yang Yuhuan smiled happily and said, "I'll prepare lunch for you right away."

"Well, thank you Sister Yuhuan." Fang Yun said.

"What's there to thank for?" Yang Yuhuan turned around and left happily.

Nunu lay in Fang Yun's arms, staring at Fang Yun with a pair of bright big eyes without blinking. Little meteors also flew over and circled Fang Yun.

Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. No matter how tired or dangerous he was outside, as soon as he returned to the place where Yang Yuhuan and Nunu lived, his mind immediately calmed down. Even when facing the threat of death from the Moon Tree Divine Punishment, he still felt warm in his heart.

Fang Yun carried Nunu back to the study, looked around, then reached out to touch the Yinjiangbei, and was stunned.

All the inkstones in Yinjiangbei were eaten by the inkstone turtle!

No matter whether it was an ordinary inkstone or a literary inkstone, all of them were eaten up, and the inkstone turtle was lying on its back, resting among the drinking river shells.

Fang Yun knew that the inkstone turtle would continue to grow by eating inkstones, but no matter how many inkstones there were, they would not be able to withstand the turtle eating like this. Then he had an idea and took the inkstone turtle out of the Yinjiangbei and put it on the table.

"Nu Nu, please help me keep an eye on it. Don't let this little turtle escape!"

The turtle, which had shrunk into its shell, suddenly poked its head out and looked at Fang Yun angrily, its mouth opening and closing as if to explain that it was a dragon turtle, not a tortoise. (To be continued...)
