Chapter 451: Summons from the Holy Court

 On the second day of November, it snowed heavily and it was very cold.

During the time when Du Ning was resting at home, he was still very concerned about things in the literary world. Every morning when his servants went out to buy groceries, they would bring back a copy of "Kongcheng Wenbao".

"Kongcheng Wenbao" publishes a lot of news from the literary circles of various countries every day. Naturally, it has some understanding of the funeral of the Ke family of the Liao Dynasty and the accusation that Du Ning refused to save him in the ancient land.

But Du Ning didn't take it to heart, nor did he make any statement in the literary world. He was upright and not afraid of the shadow. As long as he had done nothing wrong and had a clear conscience, nothing could shake his peaceful heart.

Moreover, Du Ning has just returned from the ancient land and needs a good rest. Naturally, he does not want to respond to things in the literary world. The truth will be revealed one day. Even if Du Ning does not say anything, the Holy Court will send people to investigate and the truth will be revealed.

The report is.

The housekeeper walked into the study and said to Du Ning: "Master, there is a great scholar named Kang Ping outside the door who is coming to visit. This is a greeting."

After saying that, he immediately handed the invitation to Du Ning.

Du Ning quickly read the greeting card and said, "You go to the living room and prepare some tea, and I'll go greet Mr. Kang."

"Okay, sir." The butler nodded lightly.

Du Ning got up and left the study, and went outside the house to greet Kang Ping.

"Kang has met Du Jun." Kang Ping was the first to greet Du Ning.

"Mr. Kang, there's no need to be polite. Please come and take a seat in the living room." Du Ning said enthusiastically.

While chatting and laughing, the two came to the living room, sat down across from each other, and drank tea while talking.

"Du Jun, the literary circles of various countries have been discussing your matter recently. The Ke family believes that you refused to save Ke Changyu in the ancient land, so that Ke Changyu was killed by the incarnation of the Dharma Saint. You are in Kong

Cheng, you shouldn’t know about this matter, right?" Kang Ping was the first to speak.

Du Ning nodded lightly and said: "Although I am resting at home, I have been paying attention to things in the literary world. It is really expected that the Ke family will do this."

"There has been a lot of controversy in the literary world because of your affairs. Some people with evil intentions even attacked the literary names, saying that when the human race was hostile to the alien race, you saw your comrades being killed but did nothing to save them. They accused you of only caring about

They abandoned the justice of the human race because of their own personal affairs. The Ke family and Qin Wenwei were in cahoots with each other, and their behavior of confusing the facts is really hateful. But as the person involved, why don't you stand up and explain and publish the truth?" Kang Ping revealed.

The color of confusion.

Du Ning sighed and said: "This case is not as simple as we saw. After all, Qin Wenwei is also one of the witnesses. If he can explain that Ke Changyu was killed by the Dharma Saint because he escaped from the battle, then all countries

Scholars will all accuse Ke Changyu of being greedy for life and fearing death and disregarding the justice of the human race. Naturally, they will not feel that it is my responsibility to ignore death."

"However, Qin Wenwei, in order to retaliate against me for obtaining the Dragon Saint Blood Tablet, did not hesitate to keep consistent with Ke Changzhang's words, insisting that I was the one who refused to save Ke Changyu in the ancient land. So, since I have no conclusive evidence,

Even if most people can be convinced by explaining the truth of the matter under the circumstances, the scholars of the Ke family will never accept it. They will try their best to rectify Ke Changyu's unkind behavior and want to rectify Ke Changyu's name.

, you must let me bear the infamy of refusing to save anyone."

Kang Ping's face instantly became extremely ugly. Du Ning's words hit the mark. Du Ning and Qin Wenwei were both parties involved, and they had different words. Neither side had any ironclad evidence. So who would the scholars from all over the world believe?<

/p>

Others may not know it, but people in the Liao Kingdom are more willing to believe Ke Changyu.

After all, Ke Changyu has fallen, and the Liao Emperor has posthumously granted Ke Changyu a posthumous title. Once he is proven to be a deserter, it will be a disgrace not only to the Ke family, but also to the entire Liao court.
p>

It is certainly appropriate for the imperial court to grant posthumous titles to scholars who sacrificed their lives for the human race.

It would be a huge shame to pursue a posthumous title on a scholar who abandoned his comrades and ran away alone!

Not only the court of the Liao Kingdom could not accept it, but also the scholars of the entire Liao Kingdom would not accept it easily.

"Are you going to remain silent and continue to endure the slander of the Ke family and the Qin family?" Kang Ping said with a look of unwillingness.

"What is fake cannot be true, and what is true cannot be fake. What we have to do now is to wait and see what happens. Sometimes it is better for us to deal with things passively than to deal with them proactively." Du Ning said calmly.

"Really?"

Kang Ping really admired Du Ning. If it were someone else who suffered such huge slander, he would have started to quarrel with him in the literary world and tried his best to prove his innocence.

Du Ning, on the other hand, took his time and let the Ke family and the Qin family cause trouble in the literary world without saying a word of defense or explaining for himself. Others would be anxious about Du Ning, but Du Ning was happy.

Enjoy yourself.

"Du Jun, do you have any countermeasures?"

Kang Ping asked boldly, could Du Ning have a clever plan to deal with the Ke family and the Qin family because of his unreasonable behavior?

"What can I do to deal with this?"

Du Ning smiled bitterly and said: "I'm just waiting for an opportunity. When the opportunity comes, all the problems will be solved. When the opportunity doesn't come, I can only endure the humiliation and bear the burden."

"Du Jun, please stop showing off, Kang will be dying of worry for you." Kang Ping said with an ugly face.

Du Ning smiled slightly and said: "In addition to us scholars, there were also monsters like Long Wuji in the ancient land that day. The witnesses were not just scholars from our human race, but also monsters..."

"Do you want the Dragon Clan to come forward to testify for you?"

"Besides this, there is no other way." Du Ning said seriously.

"Haha..."

Kang Ping only felt a burst of irony and amusement: "Du Jun, please don't have such wishful thinking. You have killed many geniuses from the demon clan. The demon clan is eager to skin you in revenge, so how can they come forward to testify for you?

?This is simply impossible, not to mention that the Ke family and the Qin family just want to frame you for an unjust crime, and it is not a big deal. I think there is no need for the demon clan to help you testify and clarify the facts. "
Du Ning said calmly: "Didn't Long Wuji use their dragon clan's sacred objects in exchange for my Dragon Saint's blood ingot? If I suffered an unjust injustice and was punished by the Holy Court to take away the Dragon's Saint's blood ingot and the sword crystal.

If you use the gods to compensate the Ke family, do you think the monsters of the Dragon Clan will be disgusted by the methods of the Ke family and the Qin family? Will they really sit back and watch?"

"This..."

Kang Ping was at a loss for words. The Dragon Saint Blood Ingot was an important treasure to the demon clan. If the Monster Clan was determined to obtain the Dragon Saint Blood Ingot, then he would testify for Du Ning to protect Du Ning and let Du Ning use the Dragon Saint Blood.

If Ding and Long Wuji complete the deal, they will have enough motivation.

"Even if the demon clan can prove it for you, do you think the demon clan can produce any key evidence? If you just rely on a few words from the dragon clan, it cannot be used as a strong evidence in court." Kang Ping said.

Du Ning said helplessly: "I can't control this. If the demon tribe wants to get back the Dragon Saint blood ingot, it must make a deal with me. And once I am deemed by the Holy Court to have committed an unjust act, I will not save anyone."

, they will inevitably be punished. At that time, the Ke family will point out that the Dragon Saint Blood Ingot was originally a divine object discovered by Ke Changyu first, and the Holy Court will naturally ask for it for the Ke family. Then I can only ask for it.

Hand over the Dragon Saint blood ingot."

"The Ke family of the Liao Kingdom is really vicious. They have ulterior motives. They want to use Ke Changyu's death to obtain divine objects!" Kang Ping's face suddenly changed. The more he thought about it, the more irritating he felt, and the more he felt that the Ke family

The behavior of the Qin family is too disgusting.

As a native of Liao and a great scholar of Liao, Kang Ping felt very ashamed that Liao could have such a scholar from an aristocratic family.

Suddenly, a very strong voice came from outside the door.

"I am the representative of the Liao Kingdom, the great Confucian Zongkuo. I have come to summon Yun Qijun on the orders of the Holy Court. I also ask you to accompany me to the Holy Court Hall for investigation."

His tone was condescending, full of orders to Du Ning.

Kang Ping's expression changed slightly and he said: "Zong Kuo and the Ke family are related by marriage. This person summoning you on behalf of the Holy Court is definitely not a good sign."

"What is supposed to come, will come after all."

Du Ning sighed and said to Kang Ping: "Mr. Kang, have you brought the Dragon Saint Blood Tablet?"

"That's natural." Kang Ping nodded gently.

"Please continue to help me keep the Holy Dragon Blood Tablet," Du Ning said.

"Don't worry, Mr. Du," Kang Ping nodded solemnly.

"Thank you, Mr. Kang."

Du Ning handed over to Kang Ping and walked out of the house, with Kang Ping following closely behind.

Walking out of the gate of the mansion, Du Ning saw a great scholar leading a number of bachelors. It looked like he was arresting a criminal rather than summoning him.

"May I ask Mr. Zong, why did the Holy Court summon me to the court?" Du Ning asked.

"Why did Mr. Du ask questions knowingly? When you were fighting with foreign races in the ancient land, you refused to save the comrades around you. As a result, Ke Changyu, the great scholar of the Liao Kingdom, fell among them, causing our human race to lose a talented person.

, Regarding this matter, you not only have to give an explanation to the Ke family of Liao Kingdom, but also to all the scholars in the world." Zong Kuo said with a straight face.

"In this case, I will go to court with you." Du Ning said.

"Then come with us!"

After Zong Kuo finished speaking, he led the way, with Du Ning walking in the middle and the other bachelors walking at the back.

Kang Ping also followed suit and went to the Holy Court Hall together.

When Du Ning came to the street, a group of people immediately surrounded him.

"Here comes someone! Come and see, everyone! It's this guy who killed our great scholar from the Liao Kingdom!"

"What an injustice! What an injustice! Mr. Ke's death was such an injustice!"

"Du Ning is really heartless. He watched Mr. Ke Changyu being killed by a foreign race without doing anything. How can such a person be a human king?"

"You are simply a scholar in vain!"

The people cursed and threw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at Du Ning.

Du Ning would not sit still and wait for death. He immediately unleashed his talent and power, and all the rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves were bounced to the ground by his talent before they even got close to Du Ning.

Zong Kuo sneered in his heart. Scholars are most afraid of losing the support of the people. Even if Du Ning has the talent to protect himself, as a human scholar, being thrown rotten eggs and rotten leaves by the people can definitely be called a great shame and humiliation. If he is not careful at all,

It will definitely shake Du Ning's literary courage.

Kang Ping, who was following behind, gritted his teeth in his heart. There was no doubt that these people of the Ke family came to Du Ning deliberately. They all believed that it was Du Ning's unrestrained behavior that killed Ke Changyu, and was then maliciously attacked by some scholars.

Under provocation, he threw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at Du Ning. The purpose was to humiliate Du Ning's reputation and make it seem like Du Ning had committed a heinous crime.

The most important thing is to first influence Du Ning's mind, so that on the way to the Holy Academy Court, Du Ning's mentality will be broken first, so that Du Ning will lose his mind due to anger, so that Du Ning will easily make mistakes in his words.
"Du Ning, it was you who killed my father. I want to kill you to avenge my father!"

A young scholar rushed towards Du Ning, with a dizzy expression on his face. He regarded Du Ning as the murderer of his father and wanted to kill him for revenge.

The bachelor next to him immediately took action to block the young scholar out.

"Du Ning, please give me the life of a great scholar from the Liao Kingdom! Give me the life of Ke Changyu!"

"As a human being, why did you refuse to save my uncle? Are you worthy of your title as a human being?"

"How can there be a scholar like you in the world? You saw your comrades being killed but were indifferent. Since you can even kill the incarnation of the Dharma Saint, why can't you save Ke Changyu!"

"Du Ning, you don't have to die well! You don't have to die well!"

Many people yelled at Du Ning.

Zong Kuo was feeling very proud. When he looked back at Du Ning's calm expression, his face suddenly darkened.

"Hmph! You can put on a show, but I don't believe that you, as a civilized monarch of the human race, can still remain calm in the face of the insults from the common people and the humiliation of throwing rotten eggs and rotten leaves." Zong Kuo thought in his heart.
p>

More and more people rushed over and continued to insult Du Ning, throwing all kinds of rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at Du Ning.

As a result, Du Ning looked normal from beginning to end, as if something went in from his left ear and came out from his right ear.

This made the onlookers even more unscrupulous, swearing even more humiliating curse words.

People and scholars from other countries stood and watched from a distance, acting like a crowd.

Some people also cast sympathetic glances at Du Ning. No matter what, if Du Ning was treated like this by the people in Kongcheng, his literary name would inevitably be greatly affected.

"Stop! Stop it all!"

"What crime did Mr. Yunqi commit that you treated him like this?"

"Are you trying to reverse breed?"

At this moment, a group of scholars from Yun State led the people of Yun State and rushed over.

The scholars of Yun State did not take action, but the people of Yun State directly formed a human wall to keep out the people of Liao State.

Du Ning's expression finally changed at this moment.
