Under the bright moonlight, Fang Yun gently pushed Yang Yuhuan away and reached out to wipe the tears on her face. He kissed her forehead gently and then leaned over to touch the little fox. Finally, he looked at Ao Huang and nodded before walking towards the door.
A breeze blew and his clothes fluttered, but Fang Yun's footsteps were still steady.
Yang Yuhuan looked at Fang Yun's back and gently wiped her tears.
Fang Yun opened the door and glanced in front of him with a sharp gaze.
There were soldiers standing outside the Fang Family's residence and their armor glistened. There was a group of two hundred fully armed soldiers standing outside the door.
There was a wooden prison cart in front of these soldiers that looked like a large square cage.
In front of the prison cart were the people from the Ministry of Justice and the Punishment Hall.
Apart from the Assistant Minister of Justice, Yuan Su, the rest of the people, be it ordinary handymen, Jinshi officials, or even the Punishment Hall personnel and soldiers, instinctively took half a step back and squinted, afraid that they would be hurt by Fang Yun's gaze.
Yuan Su was nearly fifty years old and had been in the Hanlin Academy for many years. However, when he looked at Fang Yun, he still squinted and opened his eyes.
Yuan Su smiled and cupped his fists. "Fang Wenhou, I've heard a lot about you. However, a country has its laws and a family has its rules. Since you violated the Notre-Dame's law and didn't save the Xusheng Clan's Lei Jiu when he was about to die, we can only enforce the law impartially. "
Fang Yun looked at the prison cart and looked straight at Yuan Su. "I'm a Jinshi before the Emperor, a third-grade civil marquis, and a cabinet minister. Unless I've committed a heinous crime, I can't be shackled, shackled, or imprisoned!"
Yuan Su casually acknowledged and continued with a smile, "Fang Wenhou, you don't know. Just now, the Notre-Dame's Punishment Hall issued a document saying that you didn't become the Xusheng Clan and instead, you've been listed as an enemy of the aristocratic families. The head of the Meng Family accuses you of killing the fierce king and robbing the Meng Family of their belongings. All your privileges have been revoked!"
Fang Yun remained silent.
In the Ten Nations, aristocratic families were the heavens.
Yuan Su smiled and said, "You and I are both Jingguo people, and I don't want to punish you severely. However, the situation forced me to do so. I hope Fang Zhenguo can forgive me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Su's face suddenly changed. His face was ferocious as he waved his hand and shouted, "Take down Notre-Dame criminal Fang Yun! This person is extremely ferocious and vicious, killing people like flies. We can't be careless. Whoever colludes with him will be killed immediately! "
The bailiffs walked up with bitter faces and carefully put shackles and fetters on Fang Yun's legs.
Suddenly, a Jinshi wearing a seventh-rank official uniform jumped out and kicked the head of the bailiff who was carefully shackling Fang Yun's leg.
"Ah …" The bailiff let out a blood-curdling scream as his head hit the ground, causing blood to gush out.
"Bastard! Are you wearing shackles or embroidering? Do you think Fang Yun is a noble or a lady from a respectable family? Men, this man is colluding with a Notre-Dame felon. Drag him out and beat him forty times with the plank, then exiled him a thousand miles away! "The Jinshi shouted angrily.
"Impudent!" Fang Yun shouted. The breath he spat out seemed to turn into a sharp sword. The Jinshi's clothes were suddenly torn to shreds and he became naked.
"You …" The Jinshi covered his crotch and quickly retreated. Then he took off his clothes from the bailiff behind him and looked at Fang Yun with anger and embarrassment.
"Sir Yuan, look at Fang Yun! He is clearly a prisoner, yet he still wants to kill me! Sir, please make the decision and avenge your student! "
Yuan Su coldly smiled and said, "Blowing air into a sword, I can only barely do it. Fang Zhenguo is indeed Fang Zhenguo. However, you tried to harm an official of the Ministry of Justice. How should you be punished? "
"Well, I hurt him, and then what?" Fang Yun coldly smiled. He knew that these people were deliberately trying to anger him. But with the Moon Tree God Punishment hanging above his head, there was no need to worry about anything.
Since he was going to die anyway, rather than trembling in fear, it was better to die with a bang.
Just as Yuan Su was about to attack, he heard someone shouting not far away, "Who dares to imprison Fang Zhenguo!"
Fang Yun turned his head and saw Qiao Juze and a group of Jingguo students rushing over. There were also students who noticed that the situation was not good and quickly came over.
Yuan Su sternly said, "Notre-Dame's Punishment Hall and Jingguo's Ministry of Justice are working together to investigate this case. Those who have nothing to do with this, please leave!"
Qiao Juze sneered and said, "Fang Yun is an enemy of the aristocratic families and has no special privileges. But we are students of Jingguo. How can we let you humiliate us like this?"
Yuan Su was stunned. Fang Yun had no special privileges, but he was still a student of Jingguo Academy. It was natural for Qiao Juze and the others to stand up for him.
"Qiao Juze, you are the son-in-law of Chen Sheng's family. As a member of an aristocratic family, you cannot protect an enemy of the aristocratic family!" Yuan Su said.
Qiao Juze smiled indifferently and said, "You can ask the Notre-Dame to arrest me!"
Yuan Su suddenly felt a headache. The Notre-Dame was too lazy to care about this kind of thing. He did not know when they would send someone to investigate. Even if the investigation was completed, he did not know when the final judgment would be made. Even if the judgment was made, it might only be a fine of some money or a month of confinement.
Qiao Juze went against the rules of the aristocratic families to help Fang Yun. The real problem was that other aristocratic families might hate Fang Yun. But now, Fang Yun did not arouse the anger of the aristocratic families. For the aristocratic families, Qiao Juze was more worthy of being friends with than the Fierce King and the Meng family.
Yuan Su was a member of the Hanlin Academy and the second person in the Ministry of Justice. If an ordinary scholar dared to obstruct him, he would definitely scold him. But now Qiao Juze was not only a scholar, but also a son-in-law of an aristocratic family. In the future, he would definitely be a scholar of the Notre-Dame.
Not to mention, behind Qiao Juze were a large number of students, and there was no lack of aristocratic children.
Yuan Su coldly glanced at the officers who stopped beside Fang Yun and said, "What are you looking at! Continue to put shackles! "
Qiao Juze was about to stop them when Fang Yun dao said, "Brother Qiao, don't worry. They won't dare to make things difficult for me. In my mouth, there is a sword of words! "
A crisp sword cry came from Fang Yun's literary palace, forming an invisible pressure. The ordinary officers and students did not feel it, but the people who were engaged in a battle of words were all stunned.
Everyone's battle of words was unexpectedly suppressed by the sword cry. It took a moment for it to return to normal. But this short time was enough to determine the winner.
Yuan Su finally took half a step back, distancing himself from Fang Yun.
Yuan Su was a member of the Hanlin Academy. If he fought with Fang Yun from a distance, he could rely on his divine pen to win. But now, the two were so close, and Fang Yun's literary courage was far stronger than his. As long as he attacked with literary courage first, then with a battle of words, Yuan Su would undoubtedly die.
"That's good." Qiao Juze sighed. He also did not know what to do. The whole thing was too complicated, and it involved the battle of the Divine Path.
The students in the distance continued to gather, silently looking at Fang Yun.
No one scolded the officers, knowing that they were just following orders. But their eyes were full of disdain when they looked at the Left Assistant Minister of Justice, Yuan Su.
Yuan Su stood there motionless as if he did not see it.
After the shackles and ankles were put on, Fang Yun was sent to the prison carriage. His head was exposed above the carriage.
"Pa …" The coachman waved his whip.
"Neigh …" The two horses neighed in unison as they galloped forward, pulling the prison carriage along.
The Left Assistant Minister of Justice, Yuan Su, rode on a tall horse and walked in the middle.
In front of Yuan Su, there were many officers holding red and black ceremonial badges. Some had the words "Avoid", some had the words "Silence", and some had the words "Hanlin", "Left Assistant Minister of Justice", "Jinshi", "County Count", "Top Scorer", etc. There were a total of nine ceremonial badges.
The more ceremonial badges there were, the greater the status and influence of a person.
Behind Yuan Su was the prison carriage that pulled Fang Yun. A large number of officers and officers escorted the carriage forward slowly.
Fang Yun was calm and his eyes were calm. His hair was not disheveled, and his clothes were not tattered. He did not look like a prisoner at all. The officers and officers around him were very careful, making him look more like a prisoner.
Fang Yun in the prison carriage moved with the movement of the carriage. He looked up at the night sky and moved his lips. He was actually reciting the Book of Rites.
He did not care about the Ministry of Justice at all!
Qiao Juze led a large number of students and followed the prison carriage.
After they left Jingguo Academy, the thousands of students still did not disperse.
Yuan Su turned his head and looked behind him. He reached out to stop the carriage and turned his horse to face the students.
"This place is no longer the academy. Why are you still following us? As students of the academy, you don't focus on your studies and only know how to form cliques. Are you trying to rebel!?! "Yuan Su chided.
Fang Yun frowned. From the beginning of their meeting, Yuan Su had been deliberately acting like a bureaucrat. He was obviously trying to anger everyone and blow the matter up. If something were to happen, it would be extremely disadvantageous for him.
Qiao Juze laughed and said, "Assistant Minister Yuan, you're overthinking. We're just sending Fang Yun off as fellow schoolmates. Are we not allowed to walk behind the Ministry of Justice's convoy? "
Yuan Su glared at them fiercely and realized that they were not easy to anger. Hence, he had no choice but to order them to continue moving forward.
Soon, the Ministry of Justice's team arrived at a more crowded street.
Some people immediately recognized Fang Yun.
"Why was Fang Wenhou arrested?"
"Huh? That's Fang Wenhou? Yes, yes, it's really Fang Wenhou. During the Ten Nations Grand Tournament, his face was on the screen of light in the academy! "
"Who dares to arrest Fang Zhenguo? This is too much!"
The people on the street were discussing and many of them followed the Ministry of Justice's team while shouting Fang Yun's name.
However, Yuan Su sneered. It was a great humiliation for a dignified Jinshi to be paraded on the streets. Besides, he was being questioned by the public. If he was careless, he might lose his courage and become traumatized, which would be detrimental to his future path. Besides, Fang Yun was very young. Even if he was a genius, he might not have a strong will. Such a method of humiliation was most effective on young people.
Yuan Su turned his head to look at Fang Yun, only to discover that Fang Yun was as calm as usual. He humphed softly and thought to himself that it was just the beginning. When there were more people, Fang Yun would definitely panic and waver.
Fifteen minutes later, a large number of people from Beijing gathered behind the Ministry of Justice's team. Some of them were just curious, but most of them were furious and wanted to know what mistake Fang Yun had made.
At that time, only the people near the Divine Temple Square knew that the Lei family was suing Fang Yun for leaving them in the lurch. Those who were further away did not know.
As more and more people gathered, the matter became more and more complicated, forming multiple versions. However, all the versions had one thing in common, which was that the Left Minister colluded with the enemy to kill Fang Yun and that Yuan Su was a lackey.
"I didn't expect there to be a beast in Jingguo!"
"He's pretending to be a dog. He's a beast in human clothing!"
"How dare he put shackles on Fang Zhenguo? He's worse than a dog!"
Yuan Su was stunned. The situation seemed to be different from what he had imagined.
