Fang Yun glanced at Zong Wuyuan. Not only was he not angry, he even revealed a faint smile.
Zong Wuyuan was both embarrassed and angry because he understood Fang Yun's smile.
Before Fang Yun revealed his identity, Zong Wuyuan wanted to be Zhang Longxiang's disciple, but Fang Yun said that Zhang Longxiang would not accept him as a disciple. Fang Yun smiled as if he was talking to Zong Wuyuan about this.
Fang Yun raised his head and scanned the millions of people below Yueyang Tower. His words were like spring thunder.
"After many twists and turns, the curtains of this Literary Meeting have finally come to an end. Thinking back, the Lei family and Gyeongo were able to invite the Flood Dragon Saint to deal with me. Fang Yun is really flattered. Luckily, my luck seems to be rather good. With the help of Sage Li and Master Kong, I was able to chase Sage Jiao away. I did not set a precedent for the human race's Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage Illusionary Divine stage
Many people outside the city also laughed.
"Bensei, wait for a few breaths. Don't be in a hurry to say that the Literary Meeting has officially ended. Perhaps there will be people who will make me feel even more honored. Bensei has to admit that I am already at the end of my rope. If the Western Sea Dragon Palace or the Demon Realm's Half-saint appear, Bensei can only wait for capture. "Fang Yun said this and looked around as if he was really waiting for an enemy.
Hearing the words "I am at the end of my rope," many people laughed. The Gyeongo people were abnormally embarrassed. Needless to say, from today onwards, this idiom will definitely spread far and wide.
Some scholars were also laughing. Not only because I am at the end of my rope, but also because Fang Yun was secretly mocking the Zong and Lei families and the Qing Emperor. He was implying that if they dared to collude with the Flood Dragon Saint today, they would collude with the Demon Realm's Saints in the future.
After a few breaths, Fang Yun spread his hands and said, "It seems that I have waited for nothing. Very well, the Literary Meeting of Yueyang Tower is officially over!"
There was thunderous applause and cheers.
Regardless of the results of the investigation by the Disciplinary Hall and the Etiquette Hall, Fang Yun had given the scholars of the world a literary gathering that would leave his name in the annals of history.
"Congratulations to Fang Xusheng for becoming the head of the Four Great Talents!"
"Many thanks to Fang Xusheng for today's poem. This trip was worth it!"
"Don't be pleased by external gains, don't be grieved by personal losses. From now on, this will be the highest path in my life! "
Scholars from all over the country spoke one after another, expressing their congratulations on Fang Zhengzhi's luck and the Literary Gathering.
According to the usual practice, there would be a commotion after the meeting, but Zong Ganyu's words were like spring thunder that suppressed everyone's voices.
"The Dongsheng Pavilion, the Punishment Hall, and the Hall of Rites are working together to investigate the case. Elder Gao of the Punishment Hall, please investigate the scene! "
Hearing Zong Ganyu's words, many people sighed softly. The Literary Meeting was over, but the matter of the Literary Meeting was not completely resolved.
Gao Mo did not hide his dissatisfaction. He glanced at Zong Ganyu, then coughed lightly and said to Fang Yundao, "Fang Xusheng, Old Man wants to know, why did you kill Ge Yiming?"
Fang Yun said indifferently, "Traitor, traitor, how could I not kill him!"
"Nonsense, the Notre-Dame has not passed a verdict, how dare you call him a traitor? Millions of people here saw what happened with their own eyes. When was my son Ge Yiming a traitor? "Zong Ganyu was furious.
Li Fanming said loudly, "Li Fanming, the Scholar of Qiguo, believes that Ge Yiming is a traitor!"
Before Li Fanming finished, Fang Yun's classmate from Jiangzhou also said, "Ma Yuan, the Scholar of Jingguo, believes that Ge Yiming is a traitor!"
"Kong Delun, Kong Cheng, believes that Ge Yiming is a traitor!" Kong Delun's tone was extremely cold.
"Sun Naiyong, the Scholar of Wu Guo, believes that Ge Yiming is a traitor!"
At first, only a few people spoke, but not long after, thousands of people shouted in unison that Ge Yiming was a traitor.
In the end, millions of Jingguo's people shouted together.
"Ge Yiming is a traitor!"
"Ge Yiming is a traitor!"
Zong Ganyu's face turned purple.
Many scholars secretly laughed. Under Fang Yun's rule, if one wanted to go against Fang Yun, then one had to be prepared to become the enemy of all the people.
Gao Mo did not stop them. When the people were tired of shouting, he coughed lightly and suppressed everyone's voices.
"Ge Yiming's words and deeds were recorded on the list, and the records of many Shi family members were consistent. According to the rules of the Notre-Dame, it can be used as evidence in court. In order to save time, I did not ask Fang Xusheng. According to the records of the Shi family, if Ge Yiming is a traitor, then it is hard to conclude. But if he hates Fang Xusheng and wants to be the enemy of Fang Xusheng, then it is true. Master Zong, is what the Old Man said right? "Gao Mo asked.
Zong Ganyu guessed what Gao Mo would say next, but the punishment hall had its own set of rules. Even if he was the son of Half-saint, he could not interfere with the punishment hall.
Zong Ganyu said, "Ge Yiming and Fang Yun have conflicts, but Ge Yiming will never collude with outsiders, and it is even more impossible for him to have the intention to kill Fang Yun."
The scholars present immediately understood the intentions of the two. Gao Mo seemed to want to confirm that Ge Yiming had the intention to kill, but Zong Ganyu dispelled it in advance.
Gao Mo coldly said, "Master Zong really knows how to joke. Among the people present, Ge Yiming is not the only one who has the intention to kill Fang Xusheng. Why is there a need to quibble? It is not a big deal for a Grand Scholar to have the intention to kill Fang Xusheng. Even if he used words to attack Fang Xusheng, it is not a big crime. However, when the Flood Dragon Saint Envoy Changjiang Hualong threatened the lives of millions of people on both sides of the river, as a scholar of the human race, even if we are not on the same side, we should still remain neutral. But Ge Yiming continued to attack Fang Xusheng at that time, and even claimed to be the Flood Dragon Saint's accomplice. The Old Man believes that he is not a traitor in his heart, but he is a traitor in his actions! "
Many scholars looked at Gao Mo in surprise and fell into deep thought. As a great scholar of the punishment hall, he would not express his position and opinion so quickly. Today, Gao Mo did not seem like an absolutely neutral elder of the punishment hall. He seemed to be biased towards Fang Yun. It seemed that everything that happened today had affected this great scholar. Perhaps he also wanted to enforce the law impartially, but was disgusted by the Zong and Lei families.
The people of Gyeongo were anxious. Gao Mo's words had a huge impact on everyone in the punishment hall. This was because there was a certain tacit understanding between the elders of the punishment hall. Unless it was a battle of the Divine Path or a battle between families, the others would not overturn the first elder's decision. At most, they would raise a different opinion or directly avoid it and record it. Once the case was reversed or something happened, these great scholars would be able to escape.
Without waiting for others to interrupt, Wu Jiu of the Ceremonial Hall said, "The Ceremonial Hall does not abide by the law. The Old Man believed that Ge Yiming, as a scholar of Xiangzhou, had maliciously attacked the governor of Xiangzhou. As a Jingguo Grand Scholar, he had offended a Grand Scholar of the human race. As a member of the human race, he had tried to kill Fang Xusheng. He had completely lost his sense of seniority and had reversed the rules. In ancient times, the Ceremonial Hall would have killed him without waiting for Fang Xusheng to make a move. However, as the times changed, so did etiquette. If Ge Yiming made a mistake, Fang Xusheng could punish him. However, killing him directly would be too heavy a punishment. Therefore, the Old Man believed that Ge Yiming had repeatedly violated etiquette and deserved to die. Fang Xusheng was too heavy-handed, so the Ceremonial Hall should punish him slightly. "
Many people nodded. Wu Jiu's words were indeed fair. Although the result was biased towards Fang Yun, many of his words were correct. Ge Yiming was too arrogant. If Fang Yun had not been heavy-handed, it would have been seen as an insult to Xusheng's dignity. However, killing someone in public was not wrong at all, but it was also not good.
Gao Mo nodded and said, "Elder Wu is right. Ge Yiming should have been handed over to the Ceremonial Hall and Punishment Hall. Fang Xusheng used a private punishment and should be punished. "
"How can the case be judged like this!" Zong Ganyu immediately objected. The punishment for using a private punishment and killing a Grand Scholar were worlds apart.
