Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

That night.

Fang Zheng Yi was still writing at his desk in the study.

He already had a general idea of how to deal with these scholars who were leading the trouble.

The Jinyi Wei had also made some corresponding arrangements.

However, the subsequent plans still needed careful study.

Simply pacifying the situation was not the result he wanted; that would be too crude and too simple.

A group of scholars, coming from all over the Great Jing, had a significant influence that could shake the entire country.

If he could utilize them, that would truly be a job well done.

It would also make the promotion of the Eastern Suburbs University smoother in the future.

He didn't know how long he had been writing, but the paper under Fang Zheng Yi's pen was already filled.

Li Miao Han pushed the door open, holding a bowl of soup in her hand, and asked with concern, "Husband, aren't you going to sleep yet?"

"I'll owe it to you for now."

Fang Zheng Yi quickly buried his head in revisions.

Li Miao Han rolled her eyes at him, put down the soup bowl, and glanced at the desk: "Who said anything else to you? What are you writing?"

"This is called a mind map."

Fang Zheng Yi put down his pen, put his arm around Li Miao Han's delicate body, "I have something to take care of recently, so I might not be coming home.

Take good care of Chen Yu and don't let him slack off on his homework."

"Is it because of those troublemaking candidates outside?"

Fang Zheng Yi nodded slightly, his right index finger unconsciously twirling Li Miao Han's hair.

Suddenly, he picked up a strand of her hair and said with a mischievous smile, "Madam, how about lending me some hair..."

Li Miao Han immediately paled, jumped away, and covered her temples: "No way, what do you want to do?

You don't want me to dress up as a nun, do you!"

"What kind of person do you think I am? Am I that perverted?"

Fang Zheng Yi awkwardly put down his hand, and then a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Then forget it, I'll go ask someone else."

"What do you need hair for?" Li Miao Han asked, puzzled.

"Your husband wants to change his image and get a beautiful beard!"

......

The scholars protesting in front of the Marquis's mansion were already exhausted.

It could be said that the Jinyi Wei had some humanity, preparing chamber pots for them.

However, the lack of food and drink made people even more miserable.

When it came to enduring thirst and hunger, it wasn't too difficult for many candidates who had started traveling to the capital half a year or several months in advance for the exams and had endured hardships in the examination halls.

After all, here they could stretch their bodies and talk to the people around them.

But the problem was that they had been beaten, and the injuries on their bodies were still faintly painful.

This made many people feel even more miserable.

Some people had already decided to give up, leave, prepare again, and start taking action to put pressure directly on the court.

If Fang Zheng Yi was a turtle with its head in its shell and didn't come out, could everyone just keep wasting time here?

If they really waited a full five days, they would be like fools, starving to death in this godforsaken place.

However, as soon as this idea was put forward, it was loudly criticized and rejected by more people.

The words had already been spoken, and they had no perseverance at all.

Did they want to escape before the battle?

Were the efforts of the past two days going to be wasted in vain?

The sunk cost fallacy was killing people, and many people who wanted to rethink their plans were dragged down.

Zhou Mao Xue had been trying to mediate from the middle, and the results were not bad.

He had established greater prestige among this group of people and was vaguely beginning to become a leader.

Zhou Mao Xue was naturally extremely satisfied with this and his fighting spirit was even stronger.

At this moment, it was noon, and Zhou Mao Xue was constantly moving around in the crowd, whispering with others and plotting something.

"Everyone, if we continue to sit here quietly, I'm afraid there will be no results.

Fang Zheng Yi seems to be playing the turtle with its head in its shell, unwilling to come out."

"What does Brother Zhou plan to do?"

"I will now contact other people, and then we will all call at the gate of the Marquis's mansion together!

In addition, we can also attract many people to come and watch.

In this way, all of you elder brothers can also muster up some courage.

As long as we hold on for another two or three days, and Fang Zheng Yi still doesn't show up, we will petition the court."

"Alas... Brother Zhou, we should have demonstrated to the court from the beginning, otherwise, why would we have ended up in this predicament?"

"Absolutely not!

If we had demonstrated to the court from the beginning, we wouldn't have been able to withstand the pressure?

We can only target the main culprit and gradually attract more people with lofty ideals, starting from small things.

This is the best policy.

It's a bit difficult now, but after all, we are speaking out for the people of the world, so everyone should persevere."

"Alright, Brother Zhou is a man with ideas, so let's do it that way!"

A small group of people was carefully refining their countermeasures when suddenly a burst of noise came from nearby.

"What are you doing!

What are you doing?

The Jinyi Wei have already ordered that no one is allowed to enter here.

Do you dare to force your way in and openly defy the law!"

"Get out of the way!"

A righteous roar resounded in the sky above the Marquis's mansion.

Immediately afterward, a figure, regardless of the Jinyi Wei's obstruction, quickly broke through to the gate of the Jianye Marquis's mansion.

The people present were awakened and looked up, all of them watching with astonishment!

They saw a graceful man in a white robe standing in front of the door, glaring angrily at the three Jinyi Wei who were chasing him.

This person's hair was tied high on his head, and a beautiful beard fluttered on his chest.

He wore a moon-white wide-sleeved robe, neat and elegant, with an ancient sword inlaid with precious jade on the left side of his waist, and a cyan jade wine gourd hanging on the right side.

He had the air of a transcendent immortal, yet he did not lose the style of a Jianghu hero!

Compared to the group of bruised and swollen-faced scholars, the only handsome man in the audience made a brilliant debut!

Countless eyes nervously watched this scene, all feeling a little incredible.

Fang Zheng Yi stroked his beautiful beard, snorted coldly at the Jinyi Wei in front of him, and then ignored them, turning to face the scholars.

However, when he saw the chamber pots below and felt the large amount of ammonia volatilizing in the air, his brows couldn't help but furrow.

These manure-making machines are polluting the air in my Marquis's mansion....

But although he frowned, he was intimidating without being angry!

Fang Zheng Yi cupped his fists and said in a loud voice, "Greetings, fellow scholars, I am Tang Bohu!

I only heard about your righteous actions yesterday, and I have come here today to help."

"But when I arrived here today, I didn't expect that thief Fang would send the Jinyi Wei to block the scene, which is really hateful!

He doesn't dare to face the demands of the scholars of the world.

Is this the court of my Great Jing?

Is this the important minister of my Great Jing!"

"Good!

Brother Tang is eager to help others!"

A chorus of cheers immediately came from below.

A group of scholars were extremely excited.

A powerful new comrade had arrived!

Moreover, whether in terms of appearance or momentum, he was by no means an ordinary person!

The key point was that he confronted the Jinyi Wei as soon as he came up, and even dared to call Fang Zheng Yi a thief, without any compromise!

Everyone had wanted to do this for a long time, and now someone had actually stood up and done what they had been thinking in their hearts!

In one second, the hearts of all the scholars present were completely captured....

Fang Zheng Yi cupped his hands in return, then looked at the Jinyi Wei and said righteously, "I see that everyone here is pale.

Are you treating people rudely by besieging them here, and cutting off their water and food?

The Jinyi Wei has always had a good reputation, don't you know that your actions are helping a tyrant!"

"Brother Tang is right!

The Jinyi Wei restricts our actions, allowing us to only go out and not in, and cuts off our water and food, wanting to defeat us one by one!"

Someone shouted loudly.

Immediately afterward, a mountain of complaints followed...
