Chapter 409: A Gentleman Can Be Deceitful
Within a few days, Shi Bufan controlled the grassroots public opinion of the entire Chang'an, and many stories immediately came out. Although these stories www.biquge.info different dynasties, and even many of them are overhead dynasties, the general content of these stories is surprisingly consistent with the outline, that is, a certain faint king broke up a certain couple, and then that couple lived a very hard life. Even the woman kept bending to meet her in the palace, but all she thought about was that lover. In the end, the ending of the story is also different, what a butterfly, what a variety of plots, you don't have to listen to too much.
In fact, these outlines are essentially the same, and everyone has also denounced the "faint king", in short, they began to scold. At this time, I don't know who came out that the emperor wanted to canonize the fiancée of a courtier as a concubine, and the courtier had to swallow his anger......
Because of the previous brewing, this story suddenly came out at this time, so that everyone immediately fried the pot. Everyone muttered to Li Shimin in their hearts, especially when he actually canonized the fiancée of the courtier as the concubine, doesn't this make it clear that he robbed the wife of the courtier? This kind of behavior is too inauthentic.
In the eyes of these people, they naturally sympathize with the "courtier". Because although those courtiers are officials in front of them, in front of the emperor, they also belong to the "ruled class". The ruled class is naturally sympathetic to the "ruled class", so that many specific insiders are not exposed at all, and many people have already taken a stand and sympathized.
"Did you hear that? That Miss Zheng heard that she was originally Shi Xiancheng's fiancée, but she was snatched away by the emperor. A person from Wannian County said.
"What? Is it Shi County? "No, Shi Xiancheng is such a good official, why should the emperor be like this?" "Yes! Shi Xiancheng is a good official! ”……
Many people in Wannian County have also begun to mention Shi Bufan, especially when Shi Bufan was Wannian County, so the people of Wannian County have always called Shi Bufan Shi County. This is the same reason why Li Lizhen has always called Shi Bufan Shi Shulang, it is the most familiar name, and it also represents closeness.
Because Wannian County is an attached county of Chang'an, it soon spread throughout the homes of the people of Chang'an. And the people of Chang'an are also complaining about Shi Bufan, feeling as if Shi Bufan has no good reward, and there is really no heavenly reason. However, of course, they didn't dare to say it so directly, and they just talked about it after dinner.
However, this news came to the palace through the channels of bad people and was heard by Li Shimin.
"How can this be justified, how can there be this reason, how can there be this reason! Shi Bufan, bastard, you bastard! Li Shimin scolded.
Of course Li Shimin was angry, this was deliberately done by Shi Bufan. These stories, the fiancées of courtiers, and all kinds of stories are all brewing from time to time. Because Shi Bufan deliberately made up the story before, it has made many people have preconceived ideas, so that everyone is happy because it is Shi Bufan and Zheng Liwan, and finally they were split up by Li Shimin, the emperor.
Your uncle's is a dog. Fart! Li Shimin and Shi Bufan are not in love with each other this time, both of them are playing ghosts because of their respective political goals, dogs. The fart is happy with each other. But in the hearts of the people, there is natural sympathy for the weak, and compared with the emperor, Shi Bufan is a "weak person", so the natural sympathy is extraordinary, and Zheng Liwan and Shi Bufan are happy with each other.
This time, Shi Bufan actually used public opinion to make Li Shimin stink, which made Li Shimin really embarrassed. If this is still passed on to future generations, won't he Li Shimin become a bastard in this way? As an emperor who wants to save face, of course he is not willing to leave such a reputation.
"Call me Shi Bufan!" Li Shimin scolded.
"The ministers and hosts are extraordinary, and they have seen the emperor!" Greetings are not at the discretion of the time.
Li Shimin hurriedly scolded: "Shi Bufan, you are actually willing to spread rumors? You dare to spread rumors, what crime should you be guilty of? ”
Shi Bufan replied flatly: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know how the minister spread rumors?" It's just that recently, various stories have been circulated among the people, saying that it is the tragedy of some faint kings robbing people's daughters and breaking up couples. The folk tales don't even name which emperor they are, and there is not even a single 'Tang' character in them, this is just a folk tale! As for what happened after that, who knows what's going on? Anyway, there seem to be not a few people in the court who know that this Zheng Liwan is about to be canonized as Chonghua. There are no less than hundreds of people, and whoever has such a broken mouth to spread it, then there is nothing I can do. If any minister goes home and says this, maybe the servants of the entire mansion will know about it. It's not a strange thing to spread out. ”
Li Shimin really wants to scold, Shi Bufan is insidious! Originally, there was nothing about this matter, wasn't it just that the emperor canonized the concubine? Originally, it was a matter of canonizing the concubine, and I was afraid that his emperor would rob the fiancée of the courtiers. In fact, this is often the case, if there is no time to warm up in advance, then the public opinion of the people will not be so wonderful. If it is directly spread that Shi Bufan's fiancée was canonized as a concubine by the emperor, then although everyone will sympathize with Shi Bufan, they will only persuade Shi Bufan to be patient.
It's just that this is Shi Bufan's fiancée, but she was pressed on Shi Bufan by Gao Huitong and the Gao family, and Shi Bufan is still a both, which is the weirdest. As a result, as soon as the rumors went out, they became Shi Bufan's fiancée.
What are these things, what are the side branches of the main vein, they are all caused by these things. Ordinary people are tired of this, and they began to approve one, and the so-called fiancée of Shi Bufan was robbed by the emperor.
And Shi Bufan had long known that this matter would spread to the people, but Shi Bufan was ruthless enough, and directly began to warm up all kinds of things, deliberately inducing the public opinion of the people and the king of public opinion to induce him to do what he wanted. deliberately told a lot of stories about various emperors breaking up couples who were happy with each other, and then this incident broke out again, and everyone would think that Li Shimin robbed Zheng Liwan, who was happy with Shi Bufan.
Where is his time and Zheng Liwan's love affair, is there any real "love" between them, this is made up by many people themselves.
But now it's useless to say anything, and public opinion has been biased towards the times, which makes Li Shimin very embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, if you really think that I am spreading rumors, then please ask the emperor to behead me and correct the law of the country!" Shi Bufan replied with righteousness and resoluteness.
"You-" Li Shimin was even more angry, this Shi Bufan was sure that Li Shimin would not kill him.
If you want to say who is most looking forward to Shi Bufan being safe and sound now, it is actually Li Shimin. If Shi Bufan was killed by Li Shimin at this time, people all over the world would think that Li Shimin would not hesitate to kill capable ministers and virtuous ministers for the sake of beauty, and the dignified emperor actually killed his courtiers for a woman, what do you let the people think? What do you let the people of the world think of you, so that you, as an emperor, actually killed your courtiers because you were jealous of your courtiers, you are too bad to be a man, right?
Even, at this time, Shi Bufan not only could not be killed by Li Shimin's order, but also could not have any such problems. Once Shi Bufan fell while walking, it can be considered that Li Shimin sent someone to make a ghost. If Shi Bufan sneezes, then the folk rumors are probably rumored to be that Shi Bufan was poisoned by Li Shimin.
People are terrible, this Li Shimin is most afraid of this, he is an emperor who wants to save face. Of course, he can't say that he can't do this kind of thing after I die, no matter how monstrous the flood is, so he cares very much about the people's comments. If he Li Shimin is doing now, then in the end, Li Shimin will face being passed on by public opinion, and being detained as a fiancée who does not hesitate to kill in order to snatch the courtier's fiancée, how ugly it is!
"Hmph, now you don't dare to do anything to me, once you do what to me, then your Li Shimin's reputation will stink for eight thousand miles. When the time comes, you will really never be able to turn over, as for the inside story, who will really understand. History is like this, the predecessors did some casually, so that a large group of descendants are pondering and pondering, pondering and pondering, and even have all kinds of ideas. The ancients did such a simple thing casually, and later generations wondered whether it would have a deep meaning. Originally, it was just a court battle, but as a result, I made up a story and made up a poignant story, which is enough to make you hacked for thousands of years! ”
"Now I am the safest, if you dare to do anything to me, you will not be able to take off the hat of robbing the courtier's wife, and you will be in trouble." Shi Bufan thought.
Li Shimin then said angrily: "You say, how to solve this matter? ”
Shi Bufan replied flatly: "Your Majesty, in fact, it is very simple to solve this matter, so as long as you cancel the so-called Zheng Liwan's canonization ceremony, and then re-marry this Zheng Liwan to his original fiancé, will it be done?" ”
"Well, of course, this fiancé is not me, it's my cousin who doesn't know what to call it, I'm just a cousin!"
Shi Bufan's "simple" appearance seems to be as simple as having nothing to do with him, but Li Shimin understands very well that Shi Bufan is pretending to be pure. Everyone benefited from this matter, the Gao family could avoid a competitor in the harem, and the Hedong Shi clan successfully established mutual trust with Concubine Yan, laying a good foundation for the next cooperation. The time is extraordinary, so a beauty is obtained. As for the most unfavorable, it is the emperor.
was robbed of a woman by a courtier out of thin air, and he had to take the initiative to give marriage, so Li Shimin is really cheap! made Li Shimin really want to cry, this time the biggest loss is himself, he lost a woman, but he had to give marriage to the other party pitifully, so he really felt that he was being pumped on the left side of his face, and he had to pity the right side of his face to be pumped by kidney function for them.
"Your Majesty, in fact, this matter is very simple. If you give Zheng Liwan to that so-called fiancé, then this will not only not damage your reputation, but will strengthen your reputation. Wouldn't it be nice if the people knew that you knew you were wrong, and instead of snatching someone else's fiancée, they would decide to give it to you? The people will surely praise you as a wise king, a magnanimous and benevolent king, and a wise king who knows right from wrong. Shi Bufan said.
Li Shimin asked coldly: "What if I don't do this?" ”
"Then I don't know, at most, there is one more story about the emperor in the stories that will be circulated in later generations." Shi Bufan said.
"You-, you're bullying me?" Li Shimin said angrily and anxiously.
Li Shimin felt that this Shi Bufan was really bullying him, yes, he was bullying him. Shi Bufan's behavior is actually bullying him to value fame and love face, hoping to leave a good name. But if he really doesn't agree to Shi Bufan's request, he Li Shimin will also face various problems in the future, especially when he is written by later generations to become a joke about snatching the wife of a courtier, and then it will be circulated for many years!
Others think that Li Shimin, the emperor, stands at the pinnacle, thinks that he can do whatever he wants, and thinks that he can do whatever he wants. Of course, this is the idea of ordinary people, but few people know that the more people reach the peak, the more restrictions there are, and the more they are constrained in the open and in the dark. At the level of Li Shimin, he was depressed that no one could say it, and no one could really say it.
Even the courtiers below didn't know how to calculate him in their hearts, and wanted to get benefits. And the person next to his pillow, can he completely trust? Even he may have a deep affection for Empress Changsun, but if it really involves the eldest grandson's family, will Empress Changsun choose to sit idly by? This Li Shimin also has no confidence.
If it is this time, if Li Shimin is not the emperor, he can rest assured that he can boldly "tear up" with Shi Bufan, and he can have the courage to tear up with Shi Bufan for this Zheng Liwan, and no one else will say anything.
But he is an emperor, an emperor who stands at the pinnacle of the country, and even in China during the Tang Dynasty and Li Shimin, he was the world's largest country, so it can be said that he stood at the peak of the earth. But the high place is too cold, and many times he can't choose by himself.
Because if this incident, if he really starts to tear up with Shi Bufan, then no one will sympathize with him, the emperor, will anyone believe what he says? You say that you take the initiative to calculate you, and someone must believe it! Most people think that he, the emperor, has absolute power, and no one will dare to rob women with him, and the emperor will rob other women!
So this turmoil, this time mixed with too many political games, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is a simple bullshit emperor who robbed the courtiers of the woman, so he naturally sympathized with Shi Bufan. If Li Shimin treats Shi Bufan, then Li Shimin's life is finished.
"A gentleman can be bullied!" In front of Shi Bufan, Li Shimin finally couldn't help but sigh like this. (To be continued.) )
