Chen Jun looked up, looking calm and proud, as if everything in front of him was insignificant to him.

"Could it be that the Champion Marquis is still planning to bully others here?"

Chen Jun's voice was a little provocative. Su Zhenlong and others behind him also shook their heads and chuckled, obviously not taking Fang Yi seriously.

Although Fang Yi has made outstanding contributions, this kind of ostentatious attitude is obviously the wrong occasion!

"Are you sure you don't want to kneel?"

Fang Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, but there was no anger on his face. Instead, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"We will never kneel! What can you do to me?"

Chen Jun replied with disdain, "Could it be that Guanjun Hou has made up his mind to humiliate us?"

Facing the other party's questioning, Fang Yan just sneered and responded without any fear: "I'm afraid it's just wishful thinking to ask people of your prominent status to kneel down and pay homage to me."

At this time, Yang Jingxuan stood quietly aside, with a faint smile still on his lips.

He seemed quite interested in the show that was about to unfold and watched everything develop with pleasure.

"Bian Yuqing!"

Fang Yi didn't say any more nonsense. He took a few steps back and called out the name coldly.

"My subordinates are here!"

Bian Yuqing immediately stepped forward and responded.

"Capture Chen Jun and the others. They have evil intentions and are planning a rebellion!"

Fang Yi suddenly became serious, waving his sleeves, and his words were full of determination and unquestionable power.

"As you command, my lord!"

Bian Yuqing nodded firmly and walked quickly towards Chen Jun, a powerful and irresistible aura emanating from him.

This change caught Chen Jun and his companions off guard. They immediately widened their eyes with disbelief written all over their faces.

"Treason... This is simply a slander that is fabricated out of thin air!"

Chen Jun was anxious and asked angrily, "When have you ever done something like this?"

Yang Jingxuan's originally gentle expression also turned gloomy. It was obvious that he was a little surprised by the development of the situation.

"Slander? That's ridiculous!"

Fang Yi stood with his back to the crowd, a mocking smile on his lips.

"According to the law, not kneeling before the emperor is considered disrespectful. You know this but still do it. Doesn't this imply dissatisfaction with the emperor, or even an attempt to rebel?"

After hearing this, Chen Jun and others' faces changed several times in an instant. They wanted to argue but didn't know where to start - in this situation, rebuttal would undoubtedly add fuel to the fire.

"Hmph, take it away."

Fang Yi ordered, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

"I will report this to the Emperor later and ask His Majesty to make the final decision."

Seeing Bian Yuqing getting closer, Chen Jun and his companions became more and more panicked. Although they uttered threatening words, they were obviously not confident enough.

After being captured, what awaits them may be more complicated lawsuits and more troubles...

"My Lord, wait a minute..."

Seeing that Bian Yuqing's hand was half raised, as if he was really going to take action, Yang Jingxuan slowly stepped forward, sighed softly, and shook his head helplessly.

"Please forgive me, Lord Marquis. They had no intention of rebellion... They were just dull by nature. When they first saw your heroic figure, they were so excited that they failed to calm down quickly. That's why they seemed a little rude."

Yang Jing's words were filled with earnestness and helplessness, "Please, Lord, show some mercy and let them go this time, considering that they are first-time offenders!"

Chen Jun became more and more dissatisfied after hearing this, but he had to swallow his anger. There was a hint of unwillingness in his angry eyes. Just when he was about to open his mouth to argue, he ran into Yang Jingxuan's vague eyes -

At that moment, as if intimidated by an invisible force, all the words froze in my throat and I dared not say another word.

"Why don't you kneel down and kowtow to the Marquis of Guanjun?"

Yang Jingxuan's cold voice sounded again, like a sharp blade piercing everyone's heart.

"As ordered!"

Chen Jun responded almost instinctively, but then his eyes were fixed on Fang Yi's provocative face.

Even though his teeth were grinding and veins were bulging on both sides of his temples, he ultimately had no choice but to succumb to the power and his knees hit the ground heavily.

At the same time, Su Zhenlong and others beside him who were also dissatisfied were forced to follow suit and submit. Although they were extremely reluctant, they had no choice but to bow their heads and obey.

"Meet the Champion!"

The voices of the crowd were uneven, and the tone added a sense of emptiness and weakness.

Especially Chen Jun's words, which were filled with deep hatred and helplessness. "Remember, Fang Yi!"

Looking at this group of former colleagues who had no choice but to submit to him, Fang Yi's lips curled up into an imperceptible smile, and a low, cold snort came out of his nose, "Forget it, I'll let you go for the sake of my fourth brother."

After a pause, he added: "But listen to me, everyone. If I catch you again, I will not let anyone who provokes me off so easily!"

His words were filled with unquestionable majesty, causing everyone present to feel a wave of oppression.

Chen Jun and his companions lowered their heads and stood there, their faces full of gloom, embarrassment and discomfiture almost spilling out of their expressions. On the other hand, Yang Jingxuan was observing all this calmly, with an intriguing light flashing in his eyes.

"Thank you very much for your magnanimity, sir."

Yang Jingxuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and spoke politely and courteously, while extending his arm in an inviting gesture.

"Come in, my lord."

Fang Yi's eyes lightly swept over the scene in front of him, his expression unchanged. He walked slowly and calmly past the few people kneeling on the ground and entered the hall first.

A sumptuous banquet had already been set up inside waiting for the distinguished guests. After the host and the distinguished guests took their seats, the few people who had been standing outside the door took their seats one by one, deliberately keeping a distance and sitting at the far end opposite to avoid directly offending the authority of the superior.

"I have no special purpose in inviting you to this private banquet today. I hope you will not be too restrained."

Yang Jingxuan raised his glass to greet him, and his words were filled with infinite respect for Fang Yi's past heroic image.

"Speaking of the previous duel, you showed extraordinary wisdom and strategy, and were able to easily defeat the powerful Japanese enemy. Every time I think about it, I am deeply impressed!"

"Also, I heard that the Marquis has come up with many clever strategies, which have prevented the enemy, who has always relied on the Japanese swords, from displaying their true strength..." Having said that, Yang Jingxuan looked at Fang Yi with an extremely expectant and admiring look.

"Could it be that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is also interested in learning?"

Fang Yi asked calmly, with a playful look in his eyes, "Or are you also interested in marching and deploying troops?"

Hearing this, Yang Jingxuan's eyes suddenly became unfathomable, but then turned into a gentle smile: "Haha, Lord Hou is really good at joking. I am just a scholar, and I don't know much about military affairs."

"I just heard some rumors occasionally, and I couldn't help but want to see the truth myself. Since everyone is so interested, let's have a drink first!"

After they finished talking, the two of them smiled at each other, raised the cup of clear wine in front of them and drank it all.

At this moment, a slightly abrupt voice suddenly broke the harmonious atmosphere.

"Oh my... Actually, defeating the tiny country of Japan is not a big deal. It's just our large army crushing the weaker opponent!"

The person who made this statement was Chen Jun, who had just been punished and was now filled with resentment and wanted to find something to vent his anger.
