"Fart! The Ji family are Mu Xian's lackeys in the Yun Kingdom. They are closest to corrupt officials, how can they be aboveboard?" Some people from the Yun Kingdom shouted.
"As a Yun national, why do you even scold the Wenzong family in your own country? You are not afraid of being laughed at!" Some people from Liao sarcastically said.
"Originally, the Ji family did everything they could to support Mu Xian's rise to power. Now that the Xian King Party no longer exists, the Ji family may die together with Du Jun when they are desperate."
"It's ridiculous. If Du Ning and Ji Yanxiao didn't do this, could it be the scholars in Kongcheng who did it?"
As soon as the words fell, the people in Kongcheng were all stunned and even became furious.
"That's nonsense! I am an upright person from Kongcheng, and I am as close as a brother and sister to the Holy Family. How could I do such an unjust act!"
"Who is trying to frame us, the locals in Kongcheng? We have no enmity with the Ji family, and it is absolutely impossible for him to frame us."
"It must be Du Ning. When Chen Yang failed to assassinate Du Ning, Du Ning might have turned his anger on the people of Kongcheng."
"Du Ning, you want to frame even our scholars in Kongcheng, what are your intentions?"
Some Kongcheng people glared at Du Ning and became furious.
Immediately afterwards, some more Kong family members stood up, pointed at Du Ning and scolded him.
"Du Jun, you are so shameless. If you are dissatisfied with our Kong family, you can attack our Kong family. Why humiliate our wife!"
"You are provoking the bottom line of our Holy Family. Don't think that just because you are a bullshit gentleman, you can do whatever you want here!"
"If you don't give us an explanation, don't blame us, the Kong family, for asking for a holy judge!"
With the support of the Kong family, more people became more confident when they accused Du Ning.
At this moment, most people did not investigate the truth of the matter. They only seized on the loophole that Du Ning was suspected of and shouted loudly. They all looked righteous and Lingran.
Du Ning's expression became even more ugly. He glanced at the people who scolded him. Without exception, they were all scholars from the All Saints family.
Obviously, this is a trap organized by multiple forces.
According to normal logic, there is no enmity between Du Ning and the scholars from the All Saints Family. In theory, they should not slander him like this.
But don’t forget that the proposal to abolish the privileges of the All Saints Family was proposed by Du Ning.
At that time, Duning had already offended most of the Saints' families.
Therefore, it is very motive and reason for all the saint families to unite to attack Du Ning.
As for why Mrs. Kong’s reputation was sacrificed, it was probably because Yan Shenggong originally sided with Du Ning, which made the saint family dissatisfied with the Kong family.
Scholars from all the saintly families joined forces to take revenge on the Kong family, but the Kong family was powerless.
The law does not punish everyone!
Even if the All Saints family is at fault, it is impossible for the Kong family to punish them all.
What's more, from a superficial point of view, only Du Ning, Ji Yanxiao and the scholars in Kongcheng are suspected.
In fact, the scholars in Kongcheng don't matter. They grew up in Kongcheng and have a very good relationship with the Holy Family. Scholars from any country cannot believe that people in Kongcheng would do such a thing.
But Du Ning may have this motive, because Du Ning was once assassinated by a Kongcheng person, and it is logically reasonable to want to blame the Kongcheng people.
At this moment, many scholars looked at Du Ning, putting tremendous psychological pressure on him.
Yanshenggong snorted coldly, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
Mrs. Kong was so angry that her whole body was shaking, and she didn't recover for a long time.
"Shut up! Shut up, all of you!"
Kong De blushed and said loudly: "Today is the old lady's birthday banquet, how can you behave like this? Our Kong family will definitely investigate this matter and get to the bottom of it, and we will never let the real culprit go unpunished!"
Fan Heshan said: "Brother Kong, I guarantee with all the reputation of our Semi-Saint Family that Du Ning will never do such a thing. He is innocent, and someone must be trying to frame him!"
Ji Yanxiao sneered and said: "Mr. Fan, as the representative scholar of the Yun Kingdom, how can you protect Du Ning so blindly? As everyone can see, after I handed the note to Du Ning, Du Ning handed the note to him.
The content has been changed. I remember that someone was really blind today and actually asked Du Ning to continue my poem for me. Du Jun, since your literary talent is so outstanding, how about just continuing these two lines of poem?"
"Presumptuous!"
Kong Chunfeng couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at Ji Yanxiao, hatred bursting out of his eyes.
"I don't hesitate to say anything, please forgive me."
Ji Yanxiao bowed hurriedly, sneering in his heart. Either Du Ning would continue the poem and reverse the poem that insulted Mrs. Kong, otherwise Du Ning would always bear the suspicion and the curse of the saint family.
However, the continuation of the poem will be based on the artistic conception of the poem. Du Ming cannot reverse the situation and whitewash the artistic conception of this poem that contains ridicule and insult.
If Du Ning had not written well, it would have been true and more people would firmly believe that it was Du Ning who deliberately disgusted the Kong family, the family of saints, and even more scholars all over the world.
Du Ning's eyes lit up, and he read these two lines of poems again. He was enlightened and said to Ji Yanxiao: "Mr. Ji's suggestion reminds me. Since I have promised to continue the poem for Mr. Ji, how can I lose it?"
Faith? I will write a continuation of these two poems and dedicate them to Mrs. Kong."
After the words fell, the faces of many Confucian scholars changed, and then they all started shouting angrily.
"Presumptuous! Du Ning, you are so brave, you actually want to continue these two crooked poems. It seems that you did all this. You are really committing a heinous crime and it is a disgrace to the literary people!"
"Who do you think you are? You want to humiliate our family head and wife for the second time? Yan Shenggong is here. You'd better admit your crime honestly, otherwise you won't be able to leave our Kong family today!"
"It's really too much! Du Jun is bullying me, no one in the Kong family!"
Scholars from other countries also looked stunned. For a moment they couldn't believe that Du Ning really wanted to write a continuation of these two poems. Could it be that the scolding of Mrs. Kong was not enough and she had to continue to write poems and scold her?
At the same time, Ke Changzhi looked at Du Ning, Ji Yanxiao looked at Du Ning, and some of the scholars from the All Saints family looked at Du Ning, with mocking smiles on their faces, and some even looked at Du Ning. His eyes were like looking at a fool.
In the eyes of everyone, when Du Ning announced that he would continue to write a continuation of these two poems, it was almost as good as losing his reputation.
"Haha... Did I hear you right? Du Ning, do you really want to continue these two lines of poetry? You are so majestic. Scolding the old lady once is not enough, you have to scold me twice. You are trying to renounce yourself from the literary world. Ah!" Ji Yanxiao said contemptuously.
"You have worked so hard to dig such a big hole for me to jump in. Of course I must repay you well."
As Du Ning spoke, his sharp eyes swept over the scholars who scolded him, as if a sharp sword could penetrate their hearts.
"Everyone?"
Many people noticed Du Ning's word, and when combined with Du Ning's current actions, everyone suddenly realized.
"Huh?"
Kong Chunfeng was not a light-hearted person either. When Du Ning just finished saying this, he quickly reacted and glanced at the Kong family members who were scolding Du Ning.
The Kong family members seemed to have been seen through, and no one dared to look directly into Kong Chunfeng's eyes.
At this moment, Kong Chunfeng was completely angry.
Unfortunately for the family, a group of unscrupulous disciples appeared, and they joined forces with scholars from other aristocratic families to humiliate the family.
Although it is just a guess and there is no evidence, Yan Shenggong believes in his own judgment.
"You... are very good!"
Kong Chunfeng wrote down the appearance of the Kong family members, and planned to find an opportunity to settle the accounts with them after the banquet was over.
Those members of the Kong family were sweating profusely, knowing that if any clues fell into the hands of Duke Yan Shenggong, they would have to shed their skin even if they did not die.
"I see, I understand!"
Fan Heshan also understood the reason, and looked at those scholars from the saints' families fiercely, with eyes like swords and filled with hatred.
At the same time, he blamed himself very much. At this critical moment, as a great scholar of the Yun Kingdom, he could not resist various attacks for Du Ning, so he could only stand aside and watch with cold eyes.
"Hey... I really didn't expect that things would turn out like this. I finally became a literary king, but I have to become a public enemy of the entire literary world..."
Fu Shuyun's face was ugly, and he only thought that things in the world are impermanent.
Du Ning placed the page on the eucalyptus table and prepared to continue the poem.
This move frightened the people of Yun State into changing their expressions.
"No, Mr. Du, you must not continue the poem, otherwise your reputation will be ruined!"
"This is Ji Yanxiao's trap. No matter what kind of poetry is written, it is difficult to reverse the poetic meaning in it."
"Calm down! Calm down! Don't be impulsive!"
But Du Ning turned a deaf ear and was grinding ink at the eucalyptus table.
Conde hurriedly said: "No, Mr. Du, have you ever thought about the consequences of continuing the poem? Do you really want to ruin your literary reputation because of this?"
"Is Mr. Kong worried that I can't write a good poem?" Du Ning asked.
"You can't continue this poem. I won't allow you to humiliate the wife of the family!" Conte said seriously.
"Who said I was going to humiliate her?"
Du Ning said loudly: "I want to use my poems to prove my innocence, and at the same time I want to give justice to Mrs. Kong. It doesn't matter if I am humiliated, but I must not harm her."
"Do you really want to continue the poem?"
"It must be continued!"
"You..."
Comte was trembling all over. He was really worried that Du Ning would fail to continue the poem, which would not only ruin his reputation, but also bring humiliation to Mrs. Kong in her later years.
This is not a matter of personal honor, but a matter of dignity of the entire Kong family.
"If I don't give it a try, we will all be a shame." Du Ning said seriously.
Seeing Du Ning's firm eyes, Kong De looked at Kong Chunfeng and the housekeeper's wife on the other side, hoping to get their instructions.
"Let Du Jun continue his poem!"
Mrs. Kong said: "I believe in Du Jun, he will never be the one who wants to humiliate me."
