In front of the first house, silence was restored.
No one thought that Fang Yun would be so angry that he was prepared to go against Kang She.
Those who had lived in Jingguo for many years and understood the situation in Jingguo were very calm. Everyone knew how the young duke and the Kang family did things. Even if Fang Yun didn't publicly declare war, the young duke would still continue to act.
Now that Fang Yun directly declared war, the young duke had no way to hide in the dark. Moreover, it would bring great pressure to the Kang family. Many people who originally wanted to rely on the Kang family would reconsider.
Fang Yun wanted to suppress Prince Kang's Mansion with his upright literary reputation and the support of the people!
Fang Yun looked at the young duke and said, "Otherwise, how can I repay you for harming me?"
Without waiting for the young duke to speak, Lei Yuanting said, "Fang Yun, I didn't think you were such an arrogant person. Then let me see what you can do to Kang She! In a few days, my Lei family will send people to Jingguo to study and join Kang She. At that time, Marquis Wen, don't hold back! However, the premise is that you can survive tomorrow! "
Wei Yu said with a bit of anger, "Everyone, don't worry. Tomorrow, he will definitely lose in the Lingyan Pavilion! If he wants to expel me from the academy, he must surpass me in the Lingyan Pavilion. He has never entered the Lingyan Pavilion, so it is impossible! Fang Yun, I only wanted you to admit defeat. I didn't want to have a falling out with you, but you actually want to expel me from the academy. When you are expelled from the academy, don't blame me! "
"You have never had a face, so how can you talk about falling out? You, Wei Yu, were born in Jingguo for generations and received Jingguo's kindness. It's fine if you don't want to repay, but you actually colluded with outsiders to harm me. Even if you have a face. I will tear it down with my own hands! Get out! Don't dirty the road in front of the door! "After Fang Yun finished speaking, he turned and returned to the study.
"Fang Yun, I will definitely defeat you in the Lingyan Pavilion tomorrow!" Wei Yu said loudly.
"Wait until you win!" Zhao Hongzhuang followed him back to the courtyard.
One of them said, "From now on, no one from the Kang Society is my friend! Goodbye! "
"I, Song Yu, will no longer have any dealings with the people of the Kang Society. I don't want to be pointed at by thousands of people and spit on by tens of thousands of people!"
"Count me in! From now on, the Bright Moon Restaurant outside the Education Palace was forbidden from entering the Kang Society. My family won't do your business, and I won't accept your stinky money! Brother Dongyun is right. There are still scholars in Jingguo! "
"This one is just an ordinary examiner. Next year, he would leave the academy after three years. Prince Kang's Mansion once tried to recruit me. I've been hesitating, but today, I've decided to officially refuse. This servant's words carry little weight. I won't say anything bad about Prince Kang's Mansion, and I won't say much either. He just wanted to say it. I am still a scholar. I'm sorry. Junior Duke. "The High Scholar cupped his hands towards the Junior Duke and turned to leave.
There were more than forty people in the Kang Society. When they came, they were full of vigor. It was as if an army was pressing down on them. But now, many people's bodies trembled slightly. They had completely lost their composure.
The Junior Duke's heart sank to the bottom. His face was darker than the dark clouds at night. The reputation of Prince Kang's Mansion had always been bad. Ever since the previous Emperor fell seriously ill, there were rumors all over Jingguo that Prince Kang was the culprit.
Fang Yun's reputation in Jingguo was no less than that of the Left Prime Minister. Once he broke off relations with the Kang Society, it would be a huge blow to the reputation of both the Kang Society and Prince Kang's Mansion.
The High Scholar that was invited by Prince Kang's Mansion was a living example. Prince Kang's Mansion usually didn't care about such people. But these insignificant High Scholars formed the bottom layer of Jingguo's bureaucracy. They were everywhere.
These High Scholars were different from those who "had the country to sell". No matter how dissatisfied they were with Jingguo or how envious they were of Gyeongo's Wu Guo, they were very clear-headed. Once Jingguo fell, they would either continue to be low-ranking officials like they were now or lose their current status. Not only would they not gain much, but they would also be at risk. Naturally, they didn't want to see Jingguo fall.
Moreover, these High Scholars wanted Jingguo to be strong no matter what.
One was the role model of scholars, the hope of Jingguo. He had proven that he could suppress Gyeongo with his literary skills. The other was the notorious Prince Kang's Mansion. Those low-ranking officials and scholars didn't even need to think twice to make a choice.
The low-ranking scholars didn't seem to be very useful, but they could influence Jingguo's citizens in many ways. When the time came, as long as the higher-ups raised their arms and called for help, Prince Kang's Mansion would immediately be isolated.
Fang Yun's declaration of war today wasn't about the Kang Society. Instead, it was about separating Prince Kang's Mansion from the rest of the scholars!
From then on, every action of Prince Kang's Mansion would be watched by countless Jingguo's citizens. Any small mistakes would be magnified infinitely, and any good deeds would be forgotten.
Fang Yun's declaration of war tied Prince Kang's Mansion's hands and feet.
Thinking of this, the young High Duke broke out in cold sweat.
"It must be a coincidence, it must be a coincidence. How can Fang Yun be so smart? It must be a coincidence! "
Fang Yun slowly walked into the study room with a faint coldness on his face. Even a famous young writer in the future could influence many people. With his Literary Name and status in Jingguo, it was easy for him to influence public opinion and the people's hearts.
At this point, even if Fang Yun didn't do anything himself, the forces in his camp or related to his interests would add fuel to the fire. They would constantly strengthen the concept of "Fang Yun is a role model" among the Jingguo's citizens and use it as a banner to resist the Left Prime Minister and Prince Kang.
The power of the people didn't seem to play a decisive role, but as long as the power of Prince Kang's Mansion was weakened to a critical point, then the power of the Jingguo's citizens would be the last straw that broke the camel's back!
Fang Yun stood on the peak of another bright era.
Zhao Hongzhuang walked into the study room and looked at Fang Yun with her bright eyes. There was a flash of admiration in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"Fang Yun, I defeated you at the chess table, but in the world of chess, you are my teacher," Zhao Hongzhuang said respectfully.
Fang Yun smiled and said, "After all, my understanding of Jingguo and the Ten Nations is not as good as yours. You are now what Confucius said, 'smart, eager to learn, and not ashamed to ask for advice'. Fortunately, you are a woman. If you were a man, there would be no place for us men in the world. "
"If you can think like that, it means that even if I am a man, you are still above me," Zhao Hongzhuang said with a smile.
"I won't flatter you. Tomorrow, come with me to send Chang Dongyun off. Do me a favor and transfer him to the front line. General Zhang Poyue will take care of him. He won't suffer. If he enters the rear line of the Left Prime Minister's faction, his future will be even more bleak. "
"Don't worry, he is a Jinshi. As long as the Minister of War doesn't give the order personally, he can decide which army he wants to go to. The Minister of War is firmly against the Left Prime Minister and Prince Kang. As for the head of the military, General Chen will not help them," Zhao Hongzhuang said.
"That's good. Continue to teach me how to paint. "
One person taught, one person learned.
Fang Yun had read a lot of books about painting. He understood everything with just a little bit, so Zhao Hongzhuang's teaching progress was very fast. Teaching Fang Yun for a day was equivalent to teaching others for a year.
The next morning. At dawn, Fang Yun left the first house alone and walked to the middle house area in the cold morning wind.
The upper house was ten spacious individual courtyards. Each courtyard was separated by grass and trees.
When Fang Yun walked to the seventh house. The door opened with a creak. He saw a young man in a white Jinshi robe walk out. Behind him was a young page boy.
This young Jinshi had a big forehead that was slightly protruding. At first glance, he looked a little strange. But if you looked at his eyes again, you would involuntarily ignore his forehead. Instead, you would feel that this person had an outstanding temperament and was very pleasing to the eye.
Fang Yun was stunned. The person also stopped. Then the two smiled and cupped their hands together.
"Greetings, Fang Wenhou."
"Greetings, second place Qiao. Brother Ju Ze deserves to be second place. He gets up so early every day."
Not only did Fang Yun see this person at the Chens' wedding banquet, but he also toasted him yesterday on Jade Mountain. Although there were too many people and they didn't talk, Fang Yun remembered very clearly. This person was a member of the Sea-view Society. He married a woman from the Chens and was very famous in the Academy. He had completely given up his official career and had been studying in the Jingguo Academy. Soon he would go to the Confucius Academy and even have the opportunity to study in the Notre-Dame.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Ze laughed and said, "Brother Fang, you think too highly of me. Usually I would be sleeping at this time. I woke up early today because I'm going the same way as you."
"Brother Ju Ze also wants to see Dongyun off?"
"Of course. Although I am not familiar with Chang Dongyun, we are classmates. His actions yesterday made me admire him. If I don't see him off, I will feel uneasy." Qiao Ze said.
"In that case, let's go together. Please."
"Please."
The two walked forward together.
As they walked, Qiao Ze said, "I heard that Brother Fang wants to use the Lingyan Pavilion to expel Wei Yu from the Academy?"
"There is indeed such a thing." Fang Yundao.
"I admire Brother Fang's courage, but forgive me for being blunt. You have never entered the Lingyan Pavilion before. This is somewhat abrupt." The two walked in the morning light. Qiao Ze's forehead was even brighter.
Fang Yundao said, "If we do everything with a hundred percent certainty, then we will miss many opportunities. Sometimes, we have to make a decision. Time waits for no one. "
"Brother Fang's words are very true. But Brother Fang, don't worry. If you fail this time, I will definitely expel Wei Yu in a month! "Qiao Ze looked forward. His eyes were brighter than his forehead.
"Brother Qiao, you don't have to do this." Fang Yun sighed.
Qiao Ze smiled and said, "You fought alone in Jiangzhou and Gyeongo, but you can't do this in the capital. I, Qiao Ze, am also a scholar. "
"Ai … Thank you Brother Qiao." Fang Yundao said.
As the two were walking, a group of scholars walked past on the right. There were about twenty of them. There were scholars, Elementary Scholars and High Scholars.
One of the High Scholars had good eyesight and immediately bowed, "Greetings Fang Wen Hou, greetings Qiao Ze."
The rest of the people paused for a moment before bowing and greeting Fang Yun. The few High Scholars were extremely calm and composed, but the Elementary Scholars and Elementary Scholars were looking at Fang Yun curiously. Some of them were excited, and some were restrained. It was as if they had seen a great man.
"Greetings to all my fellow students." Fang Yun and Qiao Ze bowed in unison.
Fang Yun smiled and said, "It doesn't look like you are doing morning exercises. Are you going to send Chang Dong Yun off?"
"Yes." The crowd replied in unison.
"Brother Qiao Ze and I are also going to send him off. We are going the same way, so let's go together."
"Yes."
The crowd hurried to catch up. The few High Scholars were half a step behind Fang Yun and Qiao Ze. The rest of the people were even further behind.
The few Elementary Scholars were flushed red. They wanted to speak to Fang Yun, but were too shy to approach him.
