Fang Yun's anger spread over hundreds of miles. The waves on the Yangtze River rolled and a large number of water demons started to roar. Dark clouds started to gather in the sky and a storm was about to come.
However, Lei Tingzhen said, "Let's not talk about the past. Old Man is here to know why you killed Lei Zhongmo? Why did you kill the future great scholar of the human race? Why did you kill the head of my Lei family! "
"Of course it's because he deserved to die." Fang Yun replied indifferently. The coldness and contempt in his tone were especially obvious.
"You …" Lei Tingzhen was so angry that his hair stood up.
"Father, you died so tragically!" A youth whose eyes were red and swollen from crying ran with all his might and headbutted Fang Yun.
"No!" The rest of the people hurriedly stopped him. However, Fang Yun swung his hand and the surrounding vital qi surged, bouncing the youth back.
That youth fell to the ground and cried loudly, "Father, I am unfilial. Fang Yun is too powerful and I am unable to take revenge for you. Today, I will kill myself to repay your kindness of raising me!" As he said that, the fifteen to sixteen year old youth suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve and held it with both hands, stabbing it into his lower abdomen.
Pfff …
Fresh blood immediately dyed the clothes on his abdomen red.
"Little Ao!" Lei Tingzhen hurriedly rushed over and hugged the youth. He used his vital qi to seal the injury and shouted at the same time, "Men! Men, quickly save Little Ao! "
He saw the medical people from the Lei family making their moves. Many medical books flew close and released rays of light that enveloped the youth's wound.
Lei Tingzhen quickly pulled out the dagger and the youth's wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The youth's face was pale. He had lost too much blood and had already fainted.
Lei Tingzhen looked at Fang Yun with grief and indignation and shouted, "Are you going to kill everyone in my Lei family before you are willing to give up? Old Man admitted his mistake and Old Man admitted that the Lei family was wrong. Why are you still not letting go? He still killed the head of my Lei family and even wanted to exterminate my entire Lei family! "
Fang Yun's expression was ice-cold as he slowly said, "You're right. I really want to exterminate your Lei family. However, don't worry. Before your Lei family becomes a traitor, I will restrain myself. I won't do that."
Many people who supported Fang Yun had eyes full of praise. This was true magnanimity. This was what a powerful person should say.
"You murderer!" Lei Tingzhen was even more furious.
Many of the great Confucians present had been watching coldly from the sidelines. Some of the neutral great Confucians' expressions had not changed, but when they saw Lei Tingzhen using such a sorrowful method as a great Confucian, most of them were disdainful.
However, many people had to admit that this method was very effective.
Seeing Fang Yun behaving in such a manner, many of the people present felt pity for him. They felt that Fang Yun was too harsh with his words and actions. They felt that he had lost the way of the Confucian School of Thought and had lost the self-restraint of the Illusionary Divine stage.
Ge Yiming's words were like spring thunder. "Everyone, look at the face of the great Xusheng, Xiang Province's Governor! He made a young man commit suicide and an old man cry. How can such a despicable person be the leader of Xiang Province's officials? How can he govern the people of Xiang Province? I am Ge Yiming. Today, I will gather all the petitions of the people of Xiang Province to impeach Governor Fang Yun and return Xiang Province to its former glory! "
"I am Yan Wu, the prefect of Harmony Prefecture. I implore the people of Xiang Province not to be deceived by Fang Yun. This person assassinated the head of the Lei family and brought disaster to Xiang Province. His crimes are extremely heinous. I, together with my colleagues from Harmony Prefecture, will write a letter of impeachment in blood!"
Yan Wu took out a white cloth that he had prepared beforehand. Then, he used a knife to cut open his thumb and dipped it in his own blood to write.
"I am Huo Long, the prefect of Baling Prefecture. I didn't want to participate in this matter, but I didn't expect Fang Yun to not only kill the head of the Lei family, but also humiliate the son of Grand Secretary Lei. His crimes are extremely heinous and should be condemned by all! I want to impeach Fang Yun! "
After Huo Long finished speaking, he took over from Yan Wu and cut open his thumb to write.
"Fang Yun doesn't respect his elders, bullies the young, brings disaster to Xiang Province, and appoints people based on favoritism …"
"I can't let the pure land of Xiang Province be tainted by Fang Yun …"
One after another, thunderous voices rang out. All of the officials spoke up one after another, continuously creating crimes against Fang Yun and writing letters of blood.
Fang Yun's friends were very anxious. Once the letters of blood were completed, as long as these officials could stir up some of the people's hearts, it would affect the fate of Jingguo and force the Cabinet to deal with this matter.
In history, whenever a large number of scholars wrote letters of blood, it would cause a huge impact. Even if the conflict between the two parties was due to internal strife and not righteousness, and even if the person being attacked didn't commit any major crimes, the letters of blood would still cause a huge impact. It would cause the person's Literary Name to fall greatly and tarnish their reputation. They might even lose the opportunity to be promoted.
In the past hundred years, there were very few people who would use such a vicious scheme.
There had to be a good reason to write a letter of blood, and now, the reason to kill the head of the Lei family was very good.
The people of Jingguo knew the power of a joint letter of blood, and their hair stood up in anger.
Some of the people of Baling City were so angry that they started cursing.
"For the sake of the Lei family, you don't hesitate to slander Fang Xusheng, you bunch of animals!"
"You bunch of officials, when something happened to the people of Xiang Province, you didn't care. When a scholar from another country died, you put on mourning clothes and attacked Fang Xusheng as if his entire family had died. Are you even human?"
"I'm from Xiang Province, and I originally supported you local officials. I was quite against Jingguo officials. People around me praise Fang Yun every day, and I didn't care at all. Who cares about Xusheng? But today, I've been completely disgusted by you officials. I've seen shameless people from Xiang Province, but I've never seen such shameless people! You disgust me, and I disgust you. From today onwards, I fully support Fang Yun! Fang Xusheng, kill all these scum. With them around, the ancestors of Xiang Province have lost all face! "
"It's completely unimaginable. The people of Jingguo wear mourning clothes for the people of Jia Province. How lowly must they be to have bastards like the officials? Are these the kind of officials who control us? How unfortunate it is to be born in Xiang Province! "an old scholar cried out loudly, incomparably sorrowful.
"In the past, I always thought that Fang Xusheng was suppressing the local officials of Xiang Province. Only now do I understand that Fang Xusheng's actions were completely righteous! It's not too much to kill all these animals! "
However, no matter how much the people of Xiang Province cursed, they couldn't stop the officials from writing a letter of blood.
"Fang Yun, return my Ying Fang Pavilion!" Hua Qingniang's hair was disheveled as she raised the "Duanmu Yifeng" handwritten by the Qing Emperor. She led the people of Qingjiang Trading Company to the side of the Lei family and the officials, becoming the third force.
"Heavens punish the murderer and punish Fang Yun together!"
Suddenly, many people shouted loudly as they walked towards Fang Yun from the crowd.
Everyone looked over. These people were dressed in scholarly attire from different countries, ranging from xiucai to Hanlin. However, these people's eyes were dim, and their bodies were unwell. Based on various signs, they were scholars with broken literary guts or cracked literary palaces.
Everyone suddenly realized that it was the group of losers from Ba Kong Mountain's Black Cloud Literature Company.
"Revenge for Ji Zhibai!"
"Liu Zizhi, Liu Zicheng, you died so unjustly!"
"Fang Yun, you butcher! You executioner! "
"Fake Saint Fang Yun, inverting the moral code and committing treason …"
After the Lei family, the officials, Qingjiang Trading Company, and Ba Kong Mountain appeared, the Qing Emperor slowly stood up.
"Fang Xusheng, you forced my Xuanwu Army to half-kneel outside Ding County, insulted the righteous demon slayers, and attacked Qingjiang Trading Company because of your personal interests, causing the people of Gyeongo to be unable to do business. Today, you must give me an explanation! "
All the officials of Gyeongo stood up, and a powerful pressure slammed onto Fang Yun like a huge wave.
