A few days after Fang Yun left Xiangzhou, a few people became restless. However, Fang Yun won the hearts of the people while Dong Wencong won the hearts of the officials. Those people were defeated before they could even make a move.
The people of Gyeongo were unwilling to give up. They wanted to repeat the old trick of smashing and looting. However, they were put out by the combined efforts of the experienced officials and citizens of Xiangzhou.
However, Dong Wencong did not let her guard down. She was still on guard at all times because Gyeongo and Mount Liu would definitely not give up so easily. They would definitely launch a large-scale attack before Fang Yun returned to Xiangzhou.
The discussion board was also discussing the matter of Xiangzhou. A few scholars discovered that in the past few days, the people of Xiangzhou were like headless flies. No matter what the spies of Gyeongo or the people of the Left Minister's faction said, they would believe them. However, they did not trust the Xiangzhou government.
In the past few days, the people of Xiangzhou had experienced the baptism of many recent events. They seemed to have become more intelligent. A few Gyeongo people who spread rumors were caught by the people. Many of the people were now very difficult to deceive.
After the discussion, everyone quickly came to a conclusion. There were a few important reasons why the people of Xiangzhou had become more intelligent.
The most important reason was that Xiangzhou had gone from being enslaved to a period of relative peace. The hearts of the people were stable and they were no longer as anxious as before. The people's lives were truly good. Even if they were instigated, they would not fall for it so easily.
Secondly, the people had gained confidence. At the Yueyang Pavilion's literary gathering, scholars from all over the world had gathered. Yueyang Pavilion's name had spread throughout the world. Fang Yun had invited two Half-saint dragon-suppressing saints. All the people felt proud to be Xiangzhou people. Previously, the Qing officials had criticized Fang Yun for holding the Yueyang Pavilion's literary gathering as a waste of money and manpower. However, if money could buy the people's confidence and happiness, then it would be worth it.
The last reason was the function of the Min Bao. On the day the Min Bao was published, whether it was during lunch break or at night, there would always be literate people reading the Min Bao. The people around them would be ordinary people listening to the Min Bao. Some village heads and town heads even gathered the entire village and town to let the people know what had happened in Jingguo and Xiangzhou.
Although the Notre-Dame's Wen Bao also published many things, it was very broad. Many parts of it, even scholars, had to carefully analyze it to understand.
The Min Bao was different. It used half of its pages to write about Xiangzhou's matters. and was very detailed so that ordinary people could understand it at first glance.
However, the scholars also believed that the biggest problem with the Min Bao was that it was too biased towards Fang Yun and the officials of the Jing Kingdom. At the same time, it belittled the Qing Kingdom. But this was like the Wen Bao of the human race. It belittled the demons and barbarians and was biased towards the human race.
If there came a day when the Min Bao proclaimed that the Yao and Barbarians were better than the Human, and when the Min Bao proclaimed that Gyeongo was better than Jingguo, then it was needless to say that an enemy force would take control of it. Everyone should be prepared to flee.
After carefully studying the changes in Xiangzhou, even many of the officials who opposed Fang Yun had to admit that Fang Yun was truly a terrifying person. In just a few short months, he was able to change the landscape of an entire province.
A few days after Fang Yun left, the Disciplinary Hall published an official document, suggesting that the Disciplinary Hall of each country head to Ning 'an and Xiangzhou to study. All expenses would be borne by the Disciplinary Hall, and they were allowed to use the literary circles of each country to travel.
This news did not cause any reaction among ordinary people. Even when the Min Bao and Wen Bao published this news, most people did not think much of it.
However, to scholars, especially those in the upper echelons of society, this was simply a heavenly poem, enlightening even the apathetic.
This was because there was only one person in the world who had the authority to order the Disciplinary Hall to publish this kind of official document.
The elder of the Disciplinary Hall could not do it, nor could the four Saints of the Notre-Dame. Only the Half-saint Feng Shu of the Legalism School could.
This meant that Ning 'an County had already changed from a trial county of Legalism to a model county of Legalism.
This was almost equivalent to the highest echelons of Legalism raising their arms and shouting to learn from Fang Yun!
Not only did the highest echelons of Legalism acknowledge Fang Yun's contributions, but they also acknowledged that Fang Yun's path was correct!
Every time the Notre-Dame issued an order to study, it would have a profound impact on the future of the human race.
When the Records of the Grand Historian, the Treatise on Various Types of Typhoid, the Armillary Sphere, and the Seismograph were released … a certain Hall of the Notre-Dame called for the scholars of the Ten Nations to study.
On that day, the Ten Nations and Kong City all held an impromptu court meeting to discuss this matter.
On the surface, the Disciplinary Hall suggested that everyone head to Xiang State and Ning 'an County to study, but in fact, they were announcing to all the Legalists that Fang Yun represented the correct direction of the Legalism School of Legalism, the correct path, and the true future of Legalism!
Even the officials of Gyeongo, who hated Fang Yun the most, had no choice but to discuss how many people to send to Xiang State and Ning 'an County to study.
After discussing this matter, the Emperor of Qing, who was still recuperating from his illness, gathered his confidants and discussed for a while before making a helpless decision. They would only take action against Xiang State after the half-year Disciplinary Hall study order ended. Otherwise, the Half-saint of Legalism would probably also come.
On this day, countless people secretly cursed Fang Yun for his good luck.
Dong Wencong was overjoyed and couldn't control herself. Without Fang Yun holding the fort, it would have been very difficult to control Xiang State. However, with the Disciplinary Hall's study order, she could almost rest easy.
"We still have to rely on Fang Xusheng for this Xiang State!" Dong Wencong said with a smile.
On the day of the new year, Fang Yun returned to Baling City from the Bloodlight World. He first went to the governor's office to eat lunch with his family. In the afternoon, he gathered the officials of Xiang State and had them report on what had happened in the past few days.
Afterwards, Fang Yun brought Dong Wencong and Fang Shouye to his study.
Fang Yun brewed new tea that he had plucked from the Bloodlight World and slowly drank it.
Fang Shouye and Dong Wencong secretly glanced at each other and drank their tea in silence.
After drinking three cups, Dong Wencong asked in a low voice, "Sir, you look tired. Did you run into some trouble in the Bloodlight World?"
Fang Yun sighed. "The ruins of Dragon City are too dangerous. The power of the Bloodlight World cannot penetrate deep inside. When I entered the Disciplinary Hall, I was unable to mobilize the power of the Bloodlight World. This time, I ventured into other places of the Disciplinary Hall. Even with Wen Xing Long Jue's identity, I was almost trapped inside. The process was very tortuous, but the result was not bad. I got what I wanted. I am just a little tired. I will rest for a few days. "
Fang Shouye said, "The Disciplinary Hall is a part of the Myriad Worlds Dragon City. The Bloodlight World is just a newly formed ancient land. It is difficult for power to invade it. If there is an excessively powerful divine object inside, it can easily destroy the Bloodlight World."
Fang Yun's gaze moved and he nodded lightly. There were indeed more than one or two powers in the Disciplinary Hall that could destroy the Bloodlight World.
Fang Yun had three main goals in entering the Bloodlight World. The first was to awaken or find the fragment of the Dragonslaying Saber. This was because he could not sense the existence of the fragment at all. He did not know if it was hiding in the Wen Palace or if it had secretly left. Unfortunately, he did not find anything.
The second goal was to retrieve a divine object from the garden guarded by the Dragondevouring Vine. The third goal was to explore the Disciplinary Hall. As for meeting the people of the Bloodlight World and bringing back some things from the Bloodlight World, it was just a matter of convenience.
The Disciplinary Hall was too powerful. At the very least, he needed to be a Half-saint to completely control it. Fang Yun was prepared to slowly explore it. One day, he would grasp the Disciplinary Hall in his hands.
Fang Yun really wanted to know how magnificent it would be if he absorbed the entire Disciplinary Hall into his Legalist codex.
