Chapter 224: The Weapon of Public Opinion

When it comes to manipulating public opinion, Zhu Yunxi dares to say that he is the most familiar and well-known person in the entire Ming Dynasty, and no one can stand out from him.

After experiencing the bombardment of public opinion in the headlines of later generations, there are countless articles on private declassified operation methods, and he has rich experience in how to manipulate public opinion.

Under Zhu Gaochi's kind expression.

Zhu Yunxi snorted: "The imperial court will not come forward to explain anything now, and it is not time yet." ”

Xie Jin was in a hurry.

He was not used to those people slandering Ren Hengtai out of thin air, and for this kind left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Xie Jin admired it in his heart after discovering the other party's good deeds.

At this time, I heard Zhu Yunxi say that the imperial court would not come forward for the time being, so he immediately asked: "Does the grandson want Ren Shilang to keep his door closed, endure the rumors outside, and endure those rumors?" ”

He doesn't think that people can stop rumors by slapping those who spread rumors.

Zhu Yunxi shook his head: "Brother Gentry thinks that punishing those who spread rumors now will not solve the problem of rumors themselves." ”

Xie Jin pursed his mouth and didn't speak, but the angry expression on his face was clear.

Zhu Gaochi also nodded on the side, obviously thinking the same as Xie Jin.

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "Since they have ignored it and done such a cheap thing, then don't blame us for being ruthless." ”

These words dragged Xie Jin's curiosity back, and his eyes immediately showed an eager look.

Zhu Yunxi said: "I still have to bother the eldest gentleman brother to visit Ren Shilang's neighbors, as well as the families of his nephews and nieces, and let these people go to the gate of the imperial city to cry out for Ren Shilang." ”

Xie Jin's face was full of doubts, and he immediately showed an expression of enlightenment.

Zhu Gaochi has grown his mouth, he has never seen such a thing that makes people block his door.

It's just that Zhu Yunxi looked at him with a slight smile.

Zhu Gaochi's eyes rolled, and he reacted, and couldn't help but whisper: "Brother Xi wants to make a big deal about this matter and make public opinion out of the people?" Do you want to borrow the people who are most familiar with Ren Shilang and their family to correct Ren Shilang's name? ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded: "The court said a thousand things and ten thousand, and the people who don't know the truth will only think that we are shielding and defending Ren Hengtai." Only what comes out of the mouths of the same people is what they want to believe. ”

Zhu Yunxi knows very well that in Ren Hengtai's current gossip scandal, the people will naturally blindly listen to the rumors they hear.

At this time, no matter what explanation the government and the court make, they will only think that this is to protect the officials and officials, or even the court to protect the ministers.

This is a natural antagonism and a consequence, and it does not mean that the people are stupid.

However, people with a heart can always use such things to constantly hit the credibility of the government and the court, causing the government and the court to become more and more black, and they can't explain a thing that is innocent.

Zhu Yunxi said again at this time: "When this matter is big, it's time for the big gentleman to continue to contribute." ”

As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi stared at Xie Jin in front of him with a faint gaze. He can see clearly today that Xie Jin is just going to fight for Ren Hengtai's unlucky bastard. As long as it is Ren Hengtai's matter, it will definitely be able to be done if it is handed over to him.

Zhu Gaochi was still thinking about what Zhu Yunxi said about who the people listened to.

Xie Jin was already puffing up his chest and clasping his fists with both hands: "Although the grandson commands, the minister will definitely do it safely!" ”

Zhu Yunxi pressed his hand: "You don't have to be so serious, we're just thinking, since those people don't care about the gentleman's style and arrange Ren Hengtai, then don't blame me for talking about their reputation." ”

When Xie Jin heard this, he immediately frowned.

He was dissatisfied with those people making up Ren Hengtai's affairs, and he was also a little hesitant that he wanted to arrange the affairs of those people.

"Heaven Descends"

However, after thinking about it, Xie Jin slapped his thigh, gritted his teeth and said, "Repay the grievances directly!" The minister is willing to do this! You can only blame them for their despicable actions first, and everything is to blame! ”

Zhu Yunxi saw Xie Jin nodding in agreement, and then slowly said the follow-up plan.

"I will call Sun Cheng and Tian Mai to help the eldest gentleman to collect some private affairs of those people. Those people can make up Ren Hengtai, and it is impossible for them to have nothing at all. ”

"Perhaps, only if they have done these things themselves can they make it so true."

As soon as he heard Zhu Yunxi say this, those people may have really done what was rumored recently, Xie Jin's eyes immediately sharpened.

Zhu Yunxi said quietly: "When Sun Cheng and Tian Mai collect those things, the eldest gentleman brother does not need to name them, he only needs to describe the details of these people, and then focus on what they have done." If the eldest gentleman doesn't care about this, he can gather some trusted students from the country, and young people will always spontaneously extend their imagination in these things. ”

Xie Jin just nodded at this time.

Zhu Gaochi became more and more pondering.

Zhu Yunxi coughed lightly, took some tea, and then continued: "Don't name names, because the people will find the corresponding person by themselves through the details, and then they will truly believe in this matter, and it is absolutely impossible to be persuaded to change." ”

Xie Jin's back was numb for a while, and his eyes looked at the imperial grandson in front of him in horror.

This is a means to use the human heart to the extreme.

It's hard for Xie Jin to imagine that if this matter is used on himself, he may have 10,000 mouths on his body, and he can't explain it clearly.

The people are not stupid, they are simply ignorant because of their limited vision. Once they discover something on their own, they will leave an unbreakable mark in their hearts, and they will definitely not be disturbed by the outside world.

Manipulating people's hearts is the most terrifying thing.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at Xie Jin: "The people are simple, and most of the time they are kind, so if it weren't for Ren Hengtai's incident, Lone wouldn't want to do this." ”

As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi stared at Xie Jin silently.

A person's worldview is constantly growing, and then slowly fixed. But in many cases, the worldview can also be changed in a subtle way, and this is the most terrible part of the manipulation of public opinion.

Therefore, he is giving a promise that he will not use such means to deal with people for no reason in the future.

Xie Jinhou nodded in fear, swallowed his throat dryly, and said in a low voice: "After this is done at this time, what is the grandson going to do next?" ”

"At that time, it was naturally time for the imperial court to come forward." Zhu Yunxi smiled silently, looking very relaxed: "Presumably, when that time comes, the people will look forward and hope that the imperial court will come forward to clear Ren Hengtai's innocence and restore his reputation." The court is fair and fair, and it is also a ...... who can understand the feelings of the people."

Before Zhu Yunxi could say the words behind him, Zhu Gaochi on the side let out a strange voice, attracting Zhu Yunxi and Xie Jin's eyes.

I saw Zhu Gaochi smile bitterly and whispered: "At that time, it was the time when the imperial court conformed to the will of the people and was innocent. Ren Shilang restored his reputation, and the court could also gain the support of the people. ”

Zhu Gaochi, who had been staying in Beiping, suddenly felt that this trip to Yingtian was not in vain.

Xie Jin also sighed again and again.

Where would he have thought that it was just to restore Ren Hengtai's reputation, but in the end, it was a win-win situation.

Ren Hengtai restored his reputation.

Evildoers are equally rebuffed.

The imperial court gained the hearts and support of the people.

The people were given a lesson in the truth and the court's attitude of always caring about them.

Zhu Yunxi said solemnly at this time: "The people's will is like water, and the people's will can be relied upon." However, these tactics ultimately failed to take advantage of the shortcuts. If we want to think about the people and govern in the future, we must still implement it, so that the people can get tangible benefits and their lives can be improved with their own eyes. ”

Xie Jin and Zhu Gaochi got up at the same time when they heard this.

Facing Zhu Yunxi, he bowed respectfully and sincerely.

"Taisun Jinyu has good words, and the ministers are taught!"

Zhu Yunxi also stood up and pressed Zhu Gaochi, this kid's body and bones will be better for a few days, but he still can't be too tired.

Then he walked up to Xie Jin and patted him on the shoulder: "Although the bookstore is still ten days away from completion, this time you can try it first, without adding a name, print what you have written, and try to send it out first, which can be regarded as seeing how the effect is in advance." ”

Xie Jin raised his head: "Taisun ......"

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand: "Brother Squire, you will find that you have mastered a very powerful weapon, even sharper than the sword in the hands of the martial artist." ”

……

Three days later.

The rumors in Yingtian City became more and more out of control, and hundreds of thousands of people in Yingtian City joined in this unprecedented public opinion discussion.

However, what is surprising is that the imperial court and the Ying Tianfu government did not make any reaction and response measures to this matter.

This has led to a heated discussion.

And in the East Palace.

Zhu Yunxi, who single-handedly launched a real public opinion war in the Ming Dynasty, became extremely relaxed.

"Uncle Twenty-three, if you don't come down again, today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, you won't have to eat this month's dessert cake!"

Zhu Yunxi crossed his waist with one hand, pointed to a big tree in front of him with the other, glared angrily, and took advantage of everyone's chatting to secretly climb the tree to dig out the bird's nest.

Now Zhu Huan, who eats sweets every day, but because he has been wild in the East Palace all day long, he has not become a little fat ball, holding a branch in front of him with both hands, sandwiching his legs on a horizontal bar, and using his strength to make himself work harder, so as to touch a bird's nest near Chi Qi.

Hearing the threat of Yunxi's nephew under the tree.

Zhu Huanyuan's eyes suddenly lost their light, pouted his face, lowered his head and stared at Zhu Yunxi who was standing under the tree.

"If you don't give it to me, I'll tell my father that you beat me in the ass yesterday!"

This kid actually learned counter-threats.

Zhu Yunxi stomped his feet angrily, and called Yutian to take people up the tree for the twenty-third prince to catch.

Sun Cheng, who was in a hurry, walked in from outside.

"Third master, some people gathered in front of the gate of the imperial city to avenge the grievances of Ren Hengtai, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites!"
