Lu Zhi frowned, a little puzzled.

Sun Xiu's eyes lit up and he already understood.

In fact, he had already vaguely guessed about this issue, but he still lacked a clear concept, so as soon as Chen Zhi's words came out, it immediately opened up Sun Xiu's cognition and allowed him to grasp the essence.

"I see."

He nodded.

Chen Zhi glanced at Sun Xiu and said with a smile: "Sun Jun has something in his heart, it is better to say it." ”

Lu Zhi also glanced at Sun Xiu, looked at the other party's sudden look, and felt a crisis in his heart.

With the development of Youzhou's forces, the Wenchen faction in the force is gradually full of mountains, as the number one cadre of the family faction, Lu Zhi has always been striving to establish an image of a capable minister in Chen Zhi's heart, for which he wants to show his ability to overwhelm the crowd, but unfortunately he met Sun Xiu, who always seems to be able to take a step ahead of himself and understand Chen Zhi's meaning, which is not a good phenomenon.

Sun Xiu didn't pay attention to anything else, and he didn't care about it, Chen Zhi asked him to say, and he said bluntly: "The people also have to believe in some things, and there are many people who are curious, but this knowledge is not on learning, but mostly in the parents, firewood, rice, oil, salt, and rumors on the streets, many people will believe it, if the Youzhou Mansion can intervene in it, then the people will naturally believe the words of the people sent by the government......"

Hearing him say this, Lu Zhi finally understood, and instantly thought more, in the end, he was not stupider than Sun Xiu, just because he was born in a family, he didn't know enough about the lives of ordinary people like Sun Xiu, but he also traveled a few times, disguised as a rich man, and walked through the streets and alleys, so he also knew that the people usually work a lot and have little entertainment to speak of, except for the night-making movement, that is, the low-cost activity of spreading gossip.

“…… Scholars are naturally respected, although there are farmers who are not used to being scholars who do not produce, squat at home, and do not go out, but this is for people who have nothing to learn, but the move that has passed the Wenju is different, after a lot of publicity, as well as several grand occasions of civil and military affairs, Youzhou up and down, and even Jizhou in the south, all respect this matter, and there are many Jizhou refugees to participate, and more displaced people come to Youzhou for the future of their children, not far away to Youzhou, just to be eligible to participate in the civil and military activities, can get the status of the people, In Youzhou, the boundaries will be respected! ”

Lu Zhi's expression was solemn, and he took over the words: "Therefore, the news propagated by Juzi, the people innate feel that it is authoritative and true, and then they are full of trust, and they will be happy to obtain these news, which will also make them have a superior idea in the discussion with other people, what others don't know, but they know, and it is also a military event, and it is more different, and the atmosphere of talking about metaphysics and Taoism is similar to that of celebrities and celebrities, so the more they don't know, the more they want to know, the more they want to know, the more they want to spread, and over time, It will form a trend and public opinion! ”

Later, his thinking became clearer and clearer, but he gave birth to an inexplicable fear, and faintly perceived the terrifying power behind it.

In fact, Lu Zhi didn't want to be in line with Sun Xiu, but if Sun Xiu was allowed to continue, it would inevitably make Chen Zhi feel that he Lu Zhi was redundant, and then lower his evaluation, so he had to participate, but after this participation, he suddenly found that what he said made his back cold.

"That's right," Sun Xiu listened, his eyes lit up again, "In this way, what this person did is similar to the people who are known to the people mentioned by the lord in the past, and it is a kind of person who makes his knowledge known to the public, which can be called public knowledge!" ”

"Ahem, ahem!" Seeing that the two of them were talking about a good Chen Zhi, after hearing the last title, he coughed violently, and seeing that the two of them were going to care, he waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and let the two continue to talk, but he tasted the word "public knowledge" in his heart, which felt quite weird.

Sun Xiu said: "There is a move to do things that are well known, and the people are getting used to it, and they will take what they say as a guideline, and it seems that there is some risk at the moment, the people know the external situation, out of the instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, they will take advantage of it, once there is unfavorable news coming, they will quickly evacuate, but on the contrary, once they confirm the truth of the news, they will believe more and more in the future, and at the critical moment, there will be room for maneuvering and turning." ”

This is said very obscurely, what kind of maneuver and turning space, in fact, to put it bluntly, is that at the critical moment, you can directly manipulate public opinion and people's will by raising a child to spread false news, and achieve a result that is conducive to the situation.

Even a person like Lu Zhi, who considers himself a gentleman, has to admit that this role is indeed very huge, especially when it is at war with foreign enemies and needs internal stability, which is particularly important.

Since ancient times, wars between major powers, the battlefield determines the victory or defeat, but the decision of life and death often lies in its own country, and those who can destroy the big countries are generally internal forces, and the invasion of external forces is at most a lead, so how to rule internally is an eternal research topic.

The manipulation, control, and restriction of public opinion have been going on since ancient times, and things like Juzi are not unique, but Chen Zhi knows very well that his move to shape a new class based on civil and military actions is very groundbreaking, because in the original history, the stable formation of this class will take at least a few hundred years later!

"This is just the first step."

Seeing the two leaders of the Youzhou family and the Hanmen, with an undisguised hostile aura towards each other, Chen Zhi spoke again:

"You just saw one side, that is, the grasp and guidance of public opinion, but you didn't think about it, this can actually advocate customs, customs, just now Lu Jun said to the point, if the people who learn can not be righteous, do not know virtue, it is a disaster, such people are likely to have no position, swaying with the wind, the same is true for the people, let them work ignorantly, although it is stable, but they have no thoughts of family and country in their hearts, the Hu people came, they fled, the bandits got up, they followed, this is also a hidden danger, It may be a miracle to guide it with the words of the son......"

With Chen Zhi's tone, Lu Zhi had to sigh, knowing that this persuasion effort had failed again, and he also knew very well that not only had he failed this time, but with what he said before, it would be difficult to oppose it clearly in the future, so he had to leave with his resignation.

Sun Xiu stayed and did not leave.

Seeing this, Chen Zhi asked with a smile: "What else does Sun Jun have to say?" ”

Sun Xiu arched his hand and said: "There are indeed some things to tell the general, Lu Jun is a gentleman, he is not good to say much when he is there, and it is also a matter that the subordinates only understood after the general reminded him just now. ”

"It's okay," Chen Zhi waved his hand, "Say it all." ”
