Looking at his grandson nestled in his arms, Wang Shi'an murmured, "You won this bet."
News of the unrest in the capital was kept under wraps for a month, and it wasn't until a month later that the news spread, coinciding with the ascension of the new emperor.
Everyone around Fang Zhiyi felt a chill run down their spines. They didn't know what had happened. The Heavenly Guards had been making frequent attempts to enter the capital to gather intelligence, but their intelligence network had also been cut off.
The most crucial point is that Fang Zhiyi did not return.
Instead, several eunuchs arrived with the new emperor's decree, summoning Zuo Qianqiu and the others to the capital for an audience. When they arrived in the capital, they discovered that in addition to the leaders of the Zhetian Guard, there were also many martial arts practitioners who had been summoned to the capital by imperial decree.
Everyone looked completely bewildered.
Until he saw the familiar figure standing next to the young emperor.
"Teacher, are they experts?" the little emperor asked, his face full of curiosity.
Fang Zhiyi smiled and said, "Yes, they are all experts. Do you want to learn martial arts?"
The young emperor nodded repeatedly.
"Can."
The news that shook the martial arts world spread once again. The imperial court established a special agency called the Martial Virtue Division, under which the Heavenly Guard was placed. In addition, the first generation of members of the Martial Virtue Division were all former leaders or elders of the major sects.
Simply put, these sects have also secured stable employment.
Some people criticized them for siding with the imperial court, but most were calculating the future of the martial arts world.
With the establishment of the Martial Virtue Division, a new law on the management of public order in the martial arts world was also introduced. It is said that this law was named by Fang Zhiyi, discussed by representatives of various sects, and finally approved by the Seven Absolutes.
It explicitly states that in the future, if a feud occurs in the martial arts world, the Martial Virtue Division will have full authority to investigate such violations, including but not limited to brawls, sect conflicts, murder and robbery, etc.
At the same time, the Martial Virtue Division announced to the world that all old cases related to the martial arts world would be thoroughly investigated, and the people were encouraged to file lawsuits in an effort to create a fair and just martial arts world order.
At first, some people didn't take it seriously, but as soon as they committed a crime, they felt the pressure. Almost all the major sects issued arrest warrants, and with the omnipresent influence of the Heavenly Guard, the criminals were caught before they even had three days to escape punishment.
With the change of some policies of the imperial court, many preferential policies for martial arts practitioners have emerged. Many disciples of various sects have chosen to join the army, and some have even entered the official system through special recruitment. With this step, the chaotic order has gradually stabilized, and there is no longer a distinction between the imperial court and the martial arts world in Western Shu.
"My lord." Someone hurriedly brought a petition with dozens of bloody handprints to Fang Zhiyi. Fang Zhiyi was supervising the frowning young emperor as he recited his lessons. Upon hearing this, he turned to look at the excited subordinate.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." The subordinate bowed to the young emperor, who returned the bow as well: "Master." He hadn't expected that because he said he wanted to learn, Fang Zhiyi would arrange more than a dozen masters for him, almost driving him crazy. But his maternal grandfather thought it was a good thing, as even an emperor had to have some means of self-defense.
"Dozens of ordinary people have filed a lawsuit against Jiang Gucheng of the Jiang family in Jiangnan, alleging that he indiscriminately killed innocent people!"
Fang Zhiyi smiled; she had finally waited for this moment.
The Jiang family, with their keen sense of smell, kept Jiang Gucheng firmly locked up at home, thinking that the matter would be over.
“I will handle this case personally.” Fang Zhiyi took the petition.
"This world is so strange. How did everyone become the court's lackeys?" Jiang Xue grumbled angrily.
