Chapter 1204

Gongsun Linglong was taken into the Commandant of Justice's office and subsequently locked in the prison of the Commandant of Justice's office.

It is worth mentioning that the person who personally took her away was Zhang Liang, who had deep entanglements with her in the original work.

In the original work, Zhang Liang and she had some grievances; never did he think that after the plot was changed by Su Xuan, it would also be Zhang Liang who personally sent Gongsun Linglong to prison.

For Gongsun Linglong, perhaps she did not think that the matter she committed was a big deal.

For one thing, she did not personally come forward to spread the rumors, and for another, what she said was all fact; she did not believe that those people could stop the mouths of the masses.

The State of Qin governs the country by law, and everything must be based on evidence.

As long as the other party has no evidence, they can do nothing to her.

If it were in the past, judging Gongsun Linglong would naturally require corresponding evidence, but unfortunately, Gongsun Linglong overlooked one thing.

Although Li Si is the Commandant of Justice, he is not a person without any selfishness at all.

After receiving a greeting from Su Xuan, in order to get closer to Su Xuan, let alone Gongsun Linglong herself not being very clean, even if she had no guilt at all, Li Si had the ability to turn this case into an ironclad one.

Not to mention anything else, Gongsun Linglong would only be able to spend the rest of her life in prison.

Time flowed slowly.

Every day, people from the Hundred Schools of Thought and the Jianghu rushed towards Xianyang, waiting for the day of Su Xuan's preaching to begin.

On this day, Su Xuan asked Yanfei abruptly: "As of today, how many people have obtained the qualification to listen to the preaching?"

Yanfei was constantly monitoring this matter.

She gave the answer immediately: "About three thousand people."

This was a terrifying number.

Even excluding the people from the Yin-Yang School and the Daoist School who had obtained internal qualifications early on, the number of people who had successively flocked to Nanshan during this period and obtained the qualification to listen to the preaching was not small.

Among them, the vast majority came from the Hundred Schools of Thought.

Then there were some people from the Jianghu.

The world is very large, and the Jianghu is just a corner of the world, but even if it is just a corner, the number of people is not small.

"Has it already reached more than three thousand people?"

Su Xuan was slightly stunned when he heard this number; it was truly because the number three thousand gave him an inexplicable feeling, because if he remembered correctly, when the Dao Ancestor Hongjun preached in the Zixiao Palace, there were also three thousand people listening.

As the saying goes, three thousand guests of the red dust in Zixiao!

"The number of people is almost enough."

Su Xuan said indifferently: "Seven days later, I will preach on the Guemiao Terrace of Mount Taiyi, the main peak of Nanshan; those who have not arrived by then will be considered to have insufficient affinity."

"Yes!"

Yanfei responded, preparing to inform the Daoist School about this matter later.

From the time Su Xuan's intention to preach was spread until now, it had been a full few months.

Such a long time, if they still hadn't arrived, it could only be said that these people lacked sincerity.

Of course, it is also possible that they encountered some accidents on the way to Xianyang, delaying their journey, but delaying the journey cannot be used as an excuse; in the final analysis, it is still because the affinity is insufficient.

Soon, the news that Su Xuan would preach on the Guemiao Terrace of Mount Taiyi seven days later spread.

More than three thousand people who had obtained jade tablets were all waiting for this day to come with various moods.

Some of them were sincerely seeking the Great Dao, because they had heard of the State Preceptor Su Xuan's reputation long ago, and after knowing about this matter, they rushed to Xianyang immediately.

Some came from the Hundred Schools of Thought and regarded this preaching by Su Xuan as another Jixia grand gathering, preparing to listen to what kind of principles Su Xuan could speak of; if they felt it made no sense, they would not mind debating it.

Even if Su Xuan's strength was incomparably powerful, strength did not mean his principles were great.

Discussing the Dao has never been about strength.

Apart from these people, there were also some recluses who were simply interested in Su Xuan as a person, which is why they chose to enter the world to participate in this preaching event.

Time flowed slowly.

During these seven days, quite a few people still arrived in Xianyang one after another, but the number of people was not large.

In the final analysis, those who wanted to listen to Su Xuan preach had already arrived at the very beginning.

The people who arrived now were not as many as before.
