my unparalleled way

Chapter 1430 Intensifies
Two months later, this trend of praising Lin Si finally made people feel tired.

Many people are tired of this endless flattery. It is true that Lin Si is very powerful and has made great contributions, but it is not worth talking about it every day, right?

The Cangluo Continent is different from the Xuanluo Continent, which is still in the slave era. There are many colleges here, and many people have received college education. They also have their own ideas and the ability to distinguish and judge.

There is also the phenomenon of personality cult, but if it is too excessive, it will naturally attract resentment.

And at this moment, an article in Feilingjing Business Daily sprinkled cold water on this false hype.

This article was written by Shi Qi, the prince and grand master of the Qianlan Kingdom, who is now unemployed at home.

This old scholar is now over eighty years old, but his academic status is astonishingly high. He has edited and written many famous books and poems, and has many disciples. He is a senior master in the minds of many literati.

The articles he wrote will naturally attract attention.

And the gist of this article is to point out that the phenomenon of over-praising Lin Si is too vile and kitsch. The article lists many absurd fabricated facts in recent newspapers, such as Lin Si waving his hand and the wind rains down, and Lin Si's dream out of thin air. Go to the enemy's next day's action, and then make deployments against the dream...

For these exaggerated claims, Shi uses quite reasonable arguments to refute them one by one, which seems quite convincing.

In addition, the whole article did not reprimand and ridicule Lin Si himself, and even bluntly said that this kind of flattery would bring bad results to His Royal Highness Beiwang himself. I hope everyone will stop this absurd behavior!
It stands to reason that the point of view of this article is relatively fair. Although it was blindly worshiped by Lin Si when it was published, and believed that the people in the newspaper were dissatisfied, it was also recognized by many people in their hearts.

Similar thoughts, why didn't they linger in their hearts?Shi Qi did say what they wanted to say.

If this matter ends here, it will not have much impact on Lin Si.

It is nothing more than people gradually discovering that Lin Si is not as miraculous as the newspapers portrayed. After all, Shi Qi denounced those newspapers and the literati who made up the random behind them, and did not point the gun at Lin Si.

In fact, the repercussions caused by this article at this time are not too great.After all, people's ideas cannot be easily changed with an article.

How can it be so easy to reverse the support of many Yue people for Lin Si in their hearts?This article caused quite a stir in the literati and academic circles, but many ordinary people didn't care at all.

However, the next development of the incident was unexpected by many people.

On the night of the next day after this article was published, Shi Qi was murdered in his study room. His blood stained the scroll on his lying desk. When his family found him, he had died.

The impact of this incident was extremely bad, and it spread even more quickly.

One reason is that Shi Qi himself is quite well-known, and he is regarded as a leading figure in the academic circles of Yue Kingdom.Second, because of the article he just posted, it also attracted the attention of some people.

Because I said something that shouldn't be said, because I told the truth and offended someone who should not be offended, so I was retaliated and silenced.

This is almost everyone's first reaction when they hear about this.But to be honest, Lin Si was still not directly targeted at this time, and many people suspected that it was the other chamber of commerce newspapers that were reprimanded.

Lin Si's image has always been too glorious. When such a dirty thing happened, people were unwilling to associate it with him.

But then, their suspicious target involuntarily moved to Lin Si.

Shi Qi's family quickly chose to report to the police, demanding that the murderer be arrested as soon as possible and severely punished.But this reasonable request was not met.

The local city lord's mansion rejected the case, bluntly saying that the impact was too great, and suggested that they report it to a higher level.

But when they reported to the Provincial Governor's Mansion, the teacher's family was shut down. From the Provincial Governor to the subordinate officials in charge of similar cases, they all found reasons to refuse to see people.

If there is nothing shady about it, no ghosts would believe it.

These bureaucrats were either bribed, or they were unwilling or afraid to investigate!

When the story of the teacher's family came out, it immediately aroused great repercussions in the academic circles and the people, and made many people indignant.

Shi Qi's article is well-founded and not fabricated. If you are not dissatisfied, you can use the same article to refute him.It is too insane to directly use this kind of killing method to retaliate.

This kind of thing is unbearable for most literati.

But to bribe the government, suppress this case, and let the murderer go unpunished, this kind of thing is the most hated by countless people at the bottom.

For a while, the people of the Yue Kingdom were once again caught up in the murder case, and many people were waiting for an explanation from the court.

And at this time, the teacher's family had directly reported the case to the Criminal Department of Xiancheng.

What happened afterward almost made countless people lose their voices.Because of this case, even the Ministry of Criminal Justice was unwilling to accept it, and some officials even directly stated to the teacher's family that His Majesty was also outraged by such a murderous incident, but no one dared to investigate this case.

At this point, the answer seems to be completely clear!
Even the Ministry of Criminal Justice did not dare to investigate, and even His Majesty could only hold back his anger and act as if nothing had happened. Besides that person, who else in Yue Kingdom could do it?
That's right, that person is the number one expert in the Moon Kingdom, he controls the army of the Moon Kingdom, and he single-handedly supported the current queen, so who would dare to offend him in the Moon Kingdom?

If Her Majesty the Queen dared to punish him, she would probably be directly pulled down from the throne by him, right?
It's just that he is too ruthless and narrow-minded, right?Just because Shi Qi said a few fair words and exposed the false flattery, he directly put people to death. What is the difference between this kind of behavior and those tyrannical villains?
With the development of the incident until now, neither Yue Luoning nor Zhou Zichuan came forward to say anything directly.

They just created a certain situation, and then directly let the people of Yue Kingdom guess the answer they thought.It's just that who knows, the reason why they can guess this answer is entirely because of the guidance of the situation created by others.

And the consequences of this are extremely bad.

Of course, Shi Qi wasn't killed by Lin Si, he still doesn't know what happened behind Yue Kingdom.In fact, even if he knew Shi Qi's article, he would probably just laugh it off.

It's just that some things, even if he didn't do it, will still be held on his head.

If he is not on the front line now, but in the country of Yue, then from the first day when the wind of flattery appears, he may directly try to curb it.

But it's a pity, now that he is fighting fiercely with Shu Zhan on the front line, he is completely overwhelmed, how can he have the time to care about some trivial matters in the rear?

What he receives every day is only information from the frontline scouts. Who would pass on such insignificant things?Even if it was passed on, how could he have the time to take care of it?
Therefore, this is tantamount to giving Zhou Zichuan the opportunity to make waves and do his best.

The court's inexplicable attitude made the incident gradually irreversible.Many people began to doubt Lin Si gradually, and even wondered whether the image of being close to the people he had shown over the years was fake, and whether he was acting on the surface but behind the scenes.

When doubt arises, people will instinctively find evidence to confirm what they think.And soon, they found a lot of 'evidence'.

That's right, Lin Si is extremely contradictory and difficult to understand.

He is one of the three evildoers in the mainland, isn't he?Since his debut, the number of people he has killed with his own hands is probably beyond count, but the people of Yue Kingdom thought that they were all enemies, so they didn't think there was anything wrong.

But now that I think about it, how could such a person who was extremely brutal be a gentle and amiable person?How could he be a good person?
He should be irritable and irritable, and he must be revenged. Only cruel and ruthless people are right!

I used to get along with the neighbors in the neighborhood, maybe it was all pretended for the sake of image, right?

Suddenly, many people suddenly realized, as if they had finally discovered the great secret.

It is true that for the big shots, most of the common people stubbornly think that they are complicated and powerful, and they must not be superficial images. They must have engaged in many unknown conspiracies behind their backs.

This kind of conjecture has existed in all dynasties.Because everything is too far away from them, it is difficult for them to detect, like a mass of darkness.Faced with darkness, people instinctively imagine as many horrible and dirty scenes as possible.

It's just that Zhou Zichuan understands that this is still not enough!

This is still not enough to defeat Lin Si. The prestige that this person has planted in the hearts of the people of Yue Kingdom is too deep. How can a murder case be brought down with a little guesswork?

The current ending is just to make people less fanatical and blind, and it just makes some people start to distrust him.

In fact, there are still a large number of people in Yue Kingdom who still believe in him and support him as always.

Further steps are needed to turn him into a critic.

Shi Qi's case seemed to be closed, which undoubtedly aroused the resentment of many scholars, and many scholars still have a certain character.

On the second day, the Feilingjing Commercial Daily published a joint petition of hundreds of literati and celebrities in the Yue Kingdom, demanding that the imperial court thoroughly investigate the murder case, find out the murderer and punish him severely, and give the deceased an explanation.

The wording of this petition is very fierce, but it is also very rigorous. It does not mention Lin Si, let alone point out that Lin Si is the murderer.But as soon as this petition came out, it stirred up waves like a stone, and immediately aroused great repercussions.

And on the third day, the imperial court took action—banning the Feiling Jingshang Daily.

Obviously there are many ways, even the simplest one is to clarify the words, but how could Yue Luoning not know what to do to suit his own interests?
Everyone 'understands' the court's intentions. This is obviously because the court has a guilty conscience and wants to silence everyone so as not to expand the impact of the incident!However, did the victims just die in vain?This matter has completely exploded, and if you shut your mouth, can you stop people's hearts?
At this point in the incident, it seems to be a collision between "dark forces" and "people's clean forces".

Many literati wrote vigorously, denouncing some people's dirty methods; many students took to the streets, besieging the government to petition for the dead, even the capital Xiancheng was no exception.

Many people believed that the murderer was Lin Si, and they also knew that Lin Si was fighting on the front line now, and they couldn't leave easily.But they stubbornly need 'fairness', they have a passion for justice, and they want justice.They feel that fairness and justice are more important than war.
