The people of Jingguo were originally worried that Tang Zhengwei's appearance would disturb Fang Yun's state of mind. They did not expect Fang Yun to resolve it with just a few simple words.
The officials of the Qing Kingdom were somewhat depressed. Today, Fang Yun had fought a war of words and condemned all sides. As soon as he appeared, he had scolded the Qing King as a third-rate ruler. Then, he had shattered Nie Changju's literary courage. Following this, he had completely destroyed Zong Wuyuanwen's literary reputation. Later, even all of the Qing people had been dragged in. Now that the great scholar had appeared, he had been persuaded to retreat with a few words. It seemed that no one in the world could deal with Fang Yun.
Some Gyeongo officials secretly transmitted messages to the Emperor of Qing, telling him to give up those little tricks. In front of Fang Yun, all the crooked tricks would become nourishment for Fang Yun to cultivate Literary Name. Other than making other scholars admire Fang Yun more, it was useless.
At this time, more than ten passenger ships stopped at the Yangtze River wharf outside Yueyang Tower. One by one, people wearing white mourning clothes, hemp clothes, and black belts around their waists came down from the ships.
At first, only a few people saw those people come down, but soon, many people looked in that direction.
More than two thousand people in mourning clothes came down from the ship, and a huge portrait was carried down.
Eight Hanlin students carried a wooden platform like a palanquin. On the wooden platform, there was a huge portrait of a great scholar.
Many people recognized the person in the portrait. It was the former head of the Lei family, the great scholar Lei Zhongmo. This person died in the Dragons' World of Battle. At present, most people believed that Fang Yun killed him. As for why the two of them fought and how Fang Yun killed Lei Zhongmo, it was still a mystery. Even the West Sea Dragons could not produce evidence. It was said that all the dragons who looked for evidence were trapped in the World of Battle and could not leave.
When the huge portrait appeared, even Fang Yun and the other people in the first class began to look in that direction. The rest of the people looked up and looked into the distance.
The scholars in the Wen Association were talking about it.
"The Lei family is finally here!"
"I knew that the Lei family wouldn't let go of this opportunity."
"Tsk tsk, this painting is really not bad. This should be the 'Vivid on Paper' realm of the three realms of painting. Look, the Lei Zhongmo inside actually has flesh and blood. Other than the fact that his eyes are a little empty, he is completely a living person."
"What a pity. No matter how Lei Zhongmo died, it's still a loss for the human race."
"You're wrong. Lei Zhongmo is a scum of the human race. He deserves to die."
"Eh?"
There was a change in the crowd and seats that had arrived long ago. One scholar after another stood up, took off their coats to reveal mourning clothes, or took out mourning clothes from their bags and put them on in front of everyone.
Among them, Excellent Country's audience did the most.
Not long after, among the millions of people, there were actually more than ten thousand people wearing mourning clothes, and there was actually a trend of continuously expanding.
Following that, an even more shocking scene occurred. Some of the Elephant State officials were dressed in mourning clothes!
These were all officials in Xiangzhou who supported Gyeongo, commonly known as Qing Guan.
This scene not only stunned the people of Jingguo, even the other neutral countries found it hard to understand.
The people of Yun Country, who had old grudges with Excellent Country, couldn't help but mock and ridicule.
"Although it's said that the death of a person is important, Grand Secretary Lei's spirit in heaven must be very happy that so many filial sons and grandsons have suddenly appeared in Xiangzhou."
"It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, yet so many people are wearing mourning clothes. How unlucky! Who brought calamus garlic? Help me ward off evil! "
"Haha, those bastards from Excellent Country. Right now, they look even sadder than if their parents died."
Not only did the people of other countries look at the Qing Guan with strange gazes, even the scholars of Gyeongo looked at the Xiang Zhou Qing Guan with disdain. If these people cooperated with Gyeongo, it could only be said that it was a legacy of history. However, they actually cooperated with Excellent Country to attack Fang Yun. To the extent that they were wearing mourning clothes for Lei Zhongmo, it was simply disgusting.
The Qing Guan Qing Guan stood there in mourning clothes without any shame. Instead, they appeared extremely calm.
Fang Yun sighed softly. A look of pity appeared on his face, but that pity slowly disappeared. The reason why these people were calm was because they had already made preparations. They were staking everything on this one throw. Once they succeeded, they would be able to cover the sky in Xiangzhou with one hand and Jingguo would not be able to interfere. If they failed, they could just return to Gyeongo and start over.
From the beginning, these people were prepared to betray their dignity and everything else.
It was only because of this that they could be calm.
All the people in mourning clothes in the crowd walked towards Lei Zhongmo's portrait. The people carrying Lei Zhongmo's portrait also slowly walked towards Yueyang Tower and Fang Yun.
It was already midnight, but no one cared about Zhang Longxiang's whereabouts. Everyone looked at the ten-thousand-person procession that looked like a funeral procession. They watched as they walked to Yueyang Tower and slowly walked from the outermost last row to the first row.
Regardless of whether it was the Jingguo soldiers or the officials of Kongcheng, no one dared to stop this procession. This was because the person walking at the front of the procession was the great scholar of the Lei family, Lei Tingzhen.
Lei Tingzhen walked to the intersection between the first row and the second row and stopped. The entire procession also stopped. The one zhang tall portrait trembled slightly. The Lei Zhongmo in the portrait seemed to be about to walk out.
Fang Yun quietly looked at Lei Tingzhen. The expression on his face was very special. It seemed to be a bit of a smile, a bit of mockery, and at the same time, a bit of pity.
Lei Tingzhen respectfully bowed to Fang Yun and bowed at a ninety degree angle. After he stood up, he said with a thunderous voice, "The incident that year started when the Lei family was killed. We were a bit overboard and our actions towards you were slightly inappropriate. However, compared to the deaths of the Lei family, what do you have to endure? From then on, more and more Lei family members died because of you. After Zhongmo became the head of the Lei family, he brought a bramble to ask for forgiveness and took the initiative to apologize. Could it be that the Lei family, who once turned the tide and saved the human race, disregarded our dignity to apologize and repent, still not be able to earn your forgiveness? How much do you hate the Lei family to the extent that you joined forces with the East Sea Dragon Palace to sneak into the Lei family's Battle Realm and kill the head of the Lei family, Lei Zhongmo? If Zhongmo didn't die, he would be a great scholar of the human race now! Fang Xusheng, you killed a great scholar of the Lei family! "
"What does the death of the Lei family have to do with Bensei? He was killed by the Whale King for molesting a good girl. The Lei family didn't seek revenge from the Whale King, but instead attacked an unrelated person like me. This is nothing more than being cruel on the inside and tolerant on the outside. A bunch of trash who use the name of the Lei family's ancestors to swindle people all day long. How dare you criticize Bensei? "
Fang Yun smiled contemptuously. He didn't hide his attitude at all.
"Fang Yun, you are Xusheng of the human race. Why are you so rude? Why are you slandering the Lei family like this? My fellow humans, do you see Fang Yun's attitude? It's because Fang Yun treated the Lei family like this that the Lei family couldn't bear it any longer … "
Fang Yun interrupted Lei Tingzhen's words and said, "Enough, stop putting on an act! When you can answer me why the Whale King killed the Lei family, but you want to kill me, I will talk nicely with the Lei family. That is the origin of everything! Of course, if you think that the Lei family is powerful and that the little high scholar deserved to be slandered by the Lei family, then what else do we have to say? "
Lei Tingzhen said angrily, "Fang Xusheng, the grudges between the Lei family and you have already been written off after Zhongmo apologized. Why do you keep pestering us?"
"Who was the one who brought up the past? Who was the one who inverted right and wrong and spread the rumor that 'the Lei family was killed'? It was clearly 'the Jingguo girl was humiliated by the Lei family and was about to be taken away and defiled'! "
