The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 939 State Shepherd Golden Seal

The sky was getting dark, the wind blew, the lanterns swayed slightly, and the lights falling on everyone's faces swayed.

In front of the chairman's table in the Temple Square, Fang Yun and Hong Ming stood opposite each other, tense with each other.

The medical family naturally preferred Yang Zijiang. After hearing what Hong Ming said, they immediately felt disgusted with him.

"The dignified state pastor made things difficult for a young county magistrate at the cultural conference. He is more domineering than a great scholar. I admire him!" The speaker was none other than Hua Yuqing, who had gone through life and death with Fang Yun in the Holy Market and the Jinshi Hunting Ground.

"I'm so scared that I don't dare to speak." The speaker was Zhang Zilong from the Zhang Sheng family, a famous medical genius who was very helpful in the Jinshi hunting grounds.

The great scholars and academicians present remained silent.

Fang Yun said proudly: "You are young and energetic, and you are full of loyalty. What's wrong? On the contrary, it is disloyal for Master Zhoumu to collude with neighboring merchants; it is unkind to harm the people in his jurisdiction; as the head of a state, he is disloyal. To harm subordinates is because It’s unjust; it’s unwise to falsely accuse this official even though everyone knows it! You, an unkind, unjust, unfaithful and unwise official, certainly owe me an apology, you owe the Medical Association an apology, and you owe the people of Ning’an County an apology. An apology!”

"Fang Yun, you are disrespectful, arrogant, hurtful and cruel to the people. You are simply lawless. You are forcing me!"

After Hong Ming finished speaking, he took off the official seal with a flip of his hand and held it up in front of him.

The red cloth covering the official seal was naturally untied, revealing the golden seal of Fangzhou Mu, emitting dazzling golden light, illuminating the entire temple square as if it were daytime. Golden light rose into the sky, and the light could be seen hundreds of miles away.

The light of the golden seal was extremely rich, flowing like gold liquid, forming a shocking pressure. Everyone felt that this golden light seemed to contain the power of the entire Mizhou, and the people under the Hanlin involuntarily lowered their heads, for fear of offending the power of God.

Fang Yun was not afraid at all, and said calmly: "Master Hong revealed his official seal's golden light and overpowered the entire audience. What do you want?"

Fang Yun was obviously just the county magistrate, but when he said these words, he was like a monarch questioning his rebellious ministers, with such power that he could eclipse the golden light of his official seal.

"Since Magistrate Fang is so ignorant of the truth and still refuses to repent when things get tough, then it is no wonder that he is the magistrate. Fang Yun, the acting Magistrate of Ning'an County, has no regard for etiquette and law, corrupts the rules of the court, fights against the chief magistrate, and temporarily deprives him of his official position according to law. The official seal will be handed over to the Three Laws Division for review!"

Hong Ming's tongue burst into spring thunder, and the sound spread throughout the city. The golden light released by Zhou Mu's golden seal suddenly increased tenfold, shining brightly like the sun, illuminating the whole city.

In the venue, all those who were less than a Hanlin scholar instinctively squinted their eyes and covered their eyes with their hands. However, those officers who were not a scholar had their eyes watered by the golden light and had to turn around.

The golden light brushed past Fang Yun, and he could see the Yin Jiangbei on Fang Yun's waist trembling slightly, as if something was rushing left and right inside.

As soon as Fang Yun touched Jiangbei, the official seal of the county magistrate appeared in his hand, making a low squeak, as if he was a little afraid of the golden seal of the state shepherd.

A dark golden chain flew out from the official seal of the state shepherd and pounced on the official seal of the county magistrate in Fang Yun's hand like a poisonous snake.

Whether they were doctors from ten countries or officials from Mizhou, whether they were workers or farmers attending the meeting, they all stared at the official seal in Fang Yun's hand.

Once the official seal is chained, Fang Yun will not be able to use the power that the county magistrate should have. All his orders have no legal effect, and even the most ordinary servants have the right to refuse his orders.

Just as the dark golden chain was about to reach the magistrate's official seal, another voice sounded from the main entrance of the Academy of Literature.

"seal up!"

This voice was not a tongue-splitting spring thunder, but everyone at the cultural gathering could hear it clearly. The voice was full of great pressure, far exceeding the official power of Zhou Mu Hongming.

A golden chain with blood in it appeared out of thin air. With a slight twitch, it shattered the chain outside the official seal of the state pastor. Then it pounced on the official seal of the state pastor, entangled like a living snake, and made a rattling sound of the metal chain.

The golden light shining for hundreds of miles suddenly disappeared, and all the power and pressure of Zhou Mu's golden seal was sealed by new chains.

At the same time, the person who said "Feng" at the main entrance of the Academy of Arts continued: "Hongming, the governor of Mizhou, Jingguo, please accompany me to the capital to accept the joint trial of the Xingdian and the three departments of Jingguo."

Everyone looked at the door and saw in the light of the lanterns, a middle-aged man wearing the Hanlin uniform of the Xingdian Palace holding the golden official seal of the Xingdian Palace in his left hand and a holy page in his right hand. The words on the holy page turned out to be... Stand up.

Everyone saw the words written in ink.

seal up.

I saw the holy page with the word "Feng" floating into the sky, glowing with golden light, and then turned into a stream of light and flew into the eyebrows of Mizhou Mu Hongming, sealing his literary courage and literary palace.

Hong Ming's eyes were covered with gauze, dim and dull.

Hong Ming was furious and shouted loudly: "The thief Fang Yun actually sent the Imperial Palace to harm me! I am not convinced, I want to see the left prime minister! I want to see the Zong Sheng..."

The Xingdian Hanlin at the door said: "Quiet!"

Invisible force sealed Hong Ming's body, and he stood motionless, unable to say a word.

After a brief silence, the cultural gathering suddenly became chaotic, with the sound of tables and chairs moving, and the sound of discussion everywhere.

"It's a member of the Hanlin Academy of the Xingdian Palace, not a Jinshi of the Xingdian Palace. His literary position is equivalent to that of Hong Ming, and he uses a great scholar to talk about righteousness. The situation is very serious!"

"Yes, if the Jinshi of the Palace of Punishment comes, he should just assist in the investigation. Now, there must be a major case."

"This person seems to be one of the two Hanlins who are stationed in Jingguo in Xingdian. It seems that he has taken a heavy hand."

"I understand! No wonder Fang Xusheng is like this, I'm afraid he already knew it!"

"To establish his prestige as a state pastor, he is worthy of being Fang Xusheng."

"It's not that Huang Daxueshi from the Criminal Palace who is here in person, so it shouldn't involve demons and barbarians, and the situation won't be too serious."

The Criminal Palace Hanlin at the door didn't come in either, but just bowed to the front and said, "I have important things to do, and I will go to Yuyang Pass overnight to meet up with Mr. Huang who is going to Qingyan City, and then go to the capital together. Please forgive me for being impolite!"

Then the person behind the Criminal Palace Hanlin ran out quickly, lifted up the motionless Hong Ming and ran towards the Criminal Palace Hanlin.

Hong Ming, who was lifted into the air, had angry eyes, filled with hatred, but also with fear.

"Goodbye!" The Criminal Palace Hanlin bowed again, turned around and left, disappearing into the vast night.

After a brief silence, there was noise.

"Sir Huang? The chief official of the Criminal Court stationed in Jingguo is Huang Daxueshi!"

"No wonder Huang Daxueshi didn't come, it turns out he went to Qingyan City to arrest people."

"The Mizhou State Military Governor's Office is in Qingyan City, and Mizhou Governor Yan Chongyuan is in Qingyan City! This..."

"That's right, except for Governor Yan, no one in Qingyan City is worthy of Huang Daxueshi's personal action."

"The three main officials of a state are the governor, the governor and the state court master. Today, the Criminal Court even arrested two people. Mizhou is in turmoil."

"Is it a major earthquake in the officialdom caused by grain prices?"

Everyone whispered while looking at Fang Yun standing in the middle.

Under the starry sky, County Magistrate Fang stood in white clothes among many blue-robed university scholars and purple-robed Confucian scholars, like a king among men, dominating the state.

Ao Huang looked at the main entrance of the Academy, sighed, and shook his head, saying, "See? I told you not to mess with Fang Yun, but you didn't listen. Are you stupid now? You're suffering for not listening to me."

The people around him rolled their eyes when they heard it.

After a while, Fang Yun put away his official seal and smiled, "Although I still owe you an apology, the Medical Literature Conference will begin!"

On the night of March 19, the Medical Literature Conference was held as scheduled.
