The Path of the Sage

Chapter 842: Strong enemy

Views:

Yue country.

The Legalists supervised the world, and as a member of the Legalists, Han Fei's family paid more attention to the Legalists' teachings than ordinary families.

The process of Fang Yun's trial was immediately transmitted back to the Holy Court by the staff of the Criminal Hall, and then passed through the hands of the Han Fei family to the official seal of Han Shoulu, who had passed the palace examination.

Han Shoulu was trying a case, but after watching Fang Yun's trial process, he suddenly felt that his own case was boring, so he took a break during lunch break.

Han Shoulu turned and left, with the Han family's staff following him.

"Shou Lu, you seem to be distracted. Has something big happened? The palace examination is of utmost importance now. You have to compete with other Legalists for the top grade in the 'Criminal Law' subject. You must not let down your guard!" Han Yuan said.

Han Shoulu smiled bitterly and said, "I thought that this year's prison first-class competition was just a competition with other legalists, but today I found out that I'm afraid there will be another unexpected strong enemy."

"Strong enemy? Is it Xiang Lancheng, who was recruited as a son-in-law by the Zong family right after leaving the hunting ground, or Lei Shushan, who seems to have a trace of dragon blood in the Lei family, whose poetry is not good but whose sutras and policy are amazing? It is said that after Fang Xu Shengwen's battle in Yizhou, the Zong family and the Lei family each trained these two Jinshi with all their strength and asked the officials of their counties to cooperate with them to compete with Fang Yun and strive to compete with Fang Yun in the sea of learning and even in the future battle for the head of the country."

"The strongest enemy is Fang Yun."

"You are only competing for the first-class in the criminal justice department. Fang Yun is not a person who majored in legalism. How can he compete with you?"

"Just a few hours ago, he already had the auxiliary code." Han Shoulu said.

"What?" The fine wrinkles on Han Yuan's face seemed to be smoothed out, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

"Could it be a misunderstanding?" Han Yuan asked again, quickly calming down.

"My grandfather personally passed on a letter to me. He not only had a legal code, but he also created a set of 'court trial records' and severely sentenced a case of bullying in the academy, depriving two students of their literary titles. Now the major Confucian scholars of the Legalist School are fully supporting him. The words he said in the letter to the Palace of Rites and the Palace of Punishment have attracted attention. It is said that after the people in the Palace of Punishment sorted out the files, they found that more than 30,000 scholars of the human race were bullied every year, and more than 1,000 of them were severely bullied! This is still an incomplete statistic. The actual situation is at least three times this number!"

Han Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, bullying does exist in the academy, but not many people are severely punished. Send me the letter so I can take a look."

Han Shoulu immediately sent a letter to Han Yuan.

After reading it, Han Yuan sighed and said, "I never thought Fang Zhenguo's vision was so sharp. He said it well. The academy is to educate students. It is a place for the human race to cultivate talents. After leaving the academy, they need to be tempered. Children and teenagers who study must be protected! If we can't even protect the foundation of our human race, then all education, etiquette and the future will no longer exist! There is no need to hesitate whether to protect teenagers or juvenile criminals. People of the Legalist School should support this verdict!"

Han Shoulu nodded and said, "If it was just a case, I wouldn't worry. But he dared to make such a drastic judgment on the second day of his appointment. Not only did it really shock those academy bullies, but it also shocked all the officials in Ning'an County! If you want to make trouble for Fang Yun, you must be prepared to be deprived of your literary position!"

"People of higher literary status in the Legalist school can record cases because they have a code of law, and ignore the record. Fang Xusheng proposed this time and has a complete set of procedures. At least you can get a B-lower, and with a little effort in the future, you can get a B-upper. You are only one step away from the A-level, and you are indeed one of your biggest competitors." Han Yuan said.

Han Shoulu suddenly laughed and said, "Forget it, just do your best. I won't accept losing to others, but I can't accept losing to him in the Criminal Justice Department. Well, I will still compete in the Criminal Justice Department, but I will also try to compete in the subjects he is not good at! I..."

Han Shoulu looked towards the direction of Jingguo, thinking of everything that happened in the Holy Ruins, and said slowly: "I don't want to be left too far behind by him..."

Qing country.

Yan Yukong looked up at the sky, rolled his eyes for a long time, and said to the county magistrate behind him: "Master Liu, I will not argue about the criminal justice department."

"promise."

Jia country.

Lei Shushan, the acting magistrate of Ting County, was holding the official seal and silently reading a letter.

Unlike Fang Yun who was surrounded by enemies everywhere, Ting County was in Leizhou. The Lei family was extremely powerful. The entire county government, from the smallest clerk to the county magistrate, all fully cooperated to ensure that Lei Shushan could succeed smoothly.

In last year's Jiaguo national examination, Lei Shushan only got a C grade in the poetry subject, and did not even get a B grade. Even though he got an A grade in classics and a B grade in policy essays, he only ranked twelfth in the end and was unable to participate in the Jinshi hunting ground.

Lei Shushan had a high forehead, big eyes, a straight nose and wide lips. He had an extremely majestic appearance, like a dragon. In just a few days, he had won the unanimous support of the county government.

After reading the letter, Lei Shushan sent a letter to the elder of the Lei family: "As expected of Fang Xusheng, I admire you. Once this happens, it will definitely hit the people of the Legalists. As long as there are no omissions in the criminal justice department, he will have a chance to compete for the top grade in the criminal justice department. I don't want to conflict with Fang Yun, but I will go all out for the top grade in each department of this palace examination! I heard that the children of the Mohist and Zhang Heng families helped him, so I believe he must have made some achievements in fortifications. However, I have taken a step ahead and won the first place in fortifications, suppressing him and making him completely give up the fortification department!"

After writing the letter, Lei Shushan looked towards the direction of Jing State, thinking in his heart.

"Fang Yun is a man of great talent, and he may be canonized as a saint in the future. With his talent, he can become a university scholar in less than ten years. This palace examination and the subsequent competition for the top spot in the university and the country are our last chances to compete with him! Ten top scores in ten subjects, I don't believe that I can't be better than him in any subject! The Lei family must not continue to lose to this man! Never!"

Lei Shushan was in high spirits, as if the world was under his control.

The candidates who had passed the palace examinations in various parts of the Ten Kingdoms received reports on Fang Yun's trials one after another. Most of them were extremely impressed and, as per custom, sent letters to congratulate Fang Yun. However, a small number of them turned a blind eye and continued to work hard to win a first-class or number one prize.

However, all the candidates who did not major in Legalism in the palace examination completely gave up on competing for the first place in the "Criminal Justice" subject.

After the academy bullying case was settled, the lobby outside the Ning'an County Government Office was particularly lively.

First, the two businessmen reconciled, and then two neighbors who usually fought to the point of bloodshed held hands and said that they had been too impulsive before, and after being taught by Lord Yu Fang, they sincerely changed their ways.

Before the neighbors left, one of the thugs suddenly repented, cried and raged, and almost banged his head against the wall, shouting that he would surrender himself, plead guilty, and accept punishment. He also offered to pay a large amount of compensation to the victim, and even promised to punish him ten times more severely if he committed the same crime again.

It took the victim a long time to react.

Fang Yun couldn't help laughing as he looked at the crying thug.

The chief judge of the criminal department had originally prepared a total of 25 lawsuits today. Within two quarters of an hour after the academy bullying case, 17 cases were quickly settled. Either the defendants pleaded guilty and accepted the punishment, or the defendants begged the plaintiffs for forgiveness.

"Ning'an Dazhi!" The Grand Secretary of the Criminal Hall who was secretly protecting Fang Yun couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, but his expression was neither funny nor sad. Those people were scared.

After Fang Yun had lunch, Dianshi Yu brought many people into the county government office.
