Zhang Ji took advantage of Zhao Ji's cover, bent over, and hung his head in front of Zhao Ji.

From Ying Zheng's point of view, Zhang Ji consciously had, even if Zhao Ji personally supported him, he felt ashamed, but he still maintained half courtesy.

But the position where Zhang Ji's head was hanging happened to be before Zhao Ji's fruit, and Zhao Ji, who had a slender waist, gave people a feeling of hanging fruit on thin branches.

Today's Zhao Ji dress is different from the past, perhaps because of the anger over the rumors, I want to go out quickly, just comb a simple hanging cloud sideburns, and I didn't put on the cumbersome and heavy phoenix robe palace dress, but changed into a relatively simple high-waisted skirt, a big red upper skirt is draped on the body, the inside is a pure white bandeau, and the lower skirt is the same bright red, tied around the waist with a corset, and the palace silk made of two pale yellow ribbons is wrapped around a pair of jade arms by Zhao Ji.

Moreover, today's Zhao Ji did not apply the heavy makeup of the past, but simply painted a crimson eyeshadow, and hurried to the Liuying Palace.

Light makeup and a simple high-waisted skirt did not lose Zhao Ji's temperament, but gave people a sense of virtuous gentleness and lightness, and the theme of red also maintained the grace and luxury of being the queen mother.

Sniffing lightly the fragrant smell from the top of the mountain, Zhang Jicai pretended to get up slowly under Zhao Ji's repeated support, the monarch and the ministers were harmonious, everything seemed to be so harmonious, and even the anger in the hearts of Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji dissipated a lot.

"Sir, Chang Yu's plan is vicious, and now rumors are spreading all over Xianyang, and there are even faint signs of continuing to spread in the Qin State, I wonder if Mr. can do anything?"

A look of anticipation appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes.

Since he led 5,000 Pingyang heavy armor troops and returned to Xianyang with the prestige of the military, the attitude of the ministers towards him has changed greatly, and the scholars from the six countries who came to Qin are no longer recommended to enter the Xiangbang Mansion after the preliminary screening of the Zhaoxian Pavilion, and a large number of scholars have chosen to enter the Xianyang Palace to see.

Of course, the people who came to the Qin Palace's palace to meet were naturally not only the scholars who had been preliminarily screened by the Zhaoxian Pavilion, but also some children of the big clans.

Since seeing that Meng Jia's second son Meng Jia and his eldest grandson Meng Tian and his second grandson Meng Yi have all been reused by Ying Zheng and deeply trusted by Ying Zheng, other big clans will naturally not sit idly by and watch the Meng family monopolize their interests.

For example, the descendants of Shangdang Taishou Feng Ting, the key figure who caused the Battle of Changping.

In that year, Feng Ting dedicated the party to Zhao Guo, and Zhao Guo named Feng Ting as Huayang Jun and gave him 30,000 yuan of food, which was rejected by Feng Ting. Later, Feng Ting organized the Shangdang defenders to join the Zhao army against the Qin army, and died with Zhao Kuo in Changping.

After Feng Ting's death in battle, his clans were scattered, some stayed in Shangdang, and some joined Zhao, and they developed and multiplied.

During the fourth merger, although part of the Shangdang city was captured by Zhao Wei and Han, the Shangdang Feng family did not choose to defect to Han Wei, nor did they return to Zhao to merge with the HD Feng family, but chose to help Qin and send the children of the clan as officials.

Among the children of the Feng family, the two most outstanding are named Feng Zheng and Feng Quji, who entered the palace to meet Yingzheng and became Yingzheng's Langzhong under the recommendation of Wang Qi, a veteran who had been stationed at the border of Qin and Zhao for many years.

Therefore, there is no shortage of ministers around Yingzheng to give advice.

It's just that most people don't dare to make any suggestions for this kind of thing involving royal affairs, for fear that their suggestions will anger Yingzheng. A small number of people, such as Li Si, Feng Zai, Feng Quji, and others, were also a little anxious in the face of this kind of rogue tactics, and could not put forward any truly effective suggestions.

But Zhang Ji is different, according to Ying Zheng's understanding, Zhang Ji is sometimes a little confused, and he also blackmailed Ji Wuye at the beginning, although he was born in a famous family, he is not unfamiliar with this kind of market tricks.

Moreover, since he met Zhang Ji, Zhang Ji has never disappointed Yingzheng.

Whether it was several crises on the way back to Qin, or recommending Li Si, or helping Ying Zheng get military support, Zhang Ji never disappointed Ying Zheng. As Ying Zheng's first reused courtier and confidant, Ying Zheng naturally developed a slight dependence on Zhang Ji that even he was not aware of.

In his heart, Zhang Ji is to him what Zhang Yi is to King Huiwen.

Therefore, Ying Zheng sincerely expects Zhang Ji to put forward some suggestions with substantive effects.

Zhang Ji naturally noticed the look of expectation in Ying Zheng's eyes, and Zhao Ji on the side didn't look at him with fiery eyes.

Fortunately, when he entered the palace, he also thought of a means to deal with rumors.

Since ancient times, Chinese people have had the habit of joining in the fun and spreading gossip and scandals, just like the attributes hidden in the blood.

Rumors stop at the wise, but the people of this period did not have much culture, and they may not have any malice, but just like the melon-eating masses in later generations.

Therefore, in the face of rumors, it is useless to blindly ban them, but it may stimulate the curiosity of the people even more, stimulate the further spread of rumors, and more versions of them.

Just like a monstrous flood, it is better to block than to sparse.

"It's just ......" Zhang Ji showed hesitation, stopped talking, and looked at Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji.

And Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji feel that Zhang Ji's unique idea of stopping rumors is quite novel, and it is better to block it, but how to dredge it, both of them are very curious.

Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji glanced at each other, he could naturally promise not to pursue Zhang Ji for any verbal faults, but these remarks should involve his mother Zhao Ji, and he can't make decisions directly for her, so it still depends on Zhao Ji's own meaning.

Zhao Ji looked down-and-out and generous, smiled and said softly: "Sir, don't have any scruples, just speak out, I and the king will not pursue it." ”

At least compared to the initial anger, after realizing that Zhang Ji really cared about him, Zhao Ji's mood was much better.

Men who have had a relationship with Zhao Ji, such as Lu Buwei and Yingzi Chu, although they gave her glory and wealth, they never gave her enough care and care.

even did the thing of leaving her and Yingzheng stranded in Xianyang and fleeing back to Qin alone, and never sent half a penny of food when their mother and son were poor.

In the long run, Zhao Ji seems to be independent, but deep down she longs for a man who can stand up when she is facing difficulties.

The narrow phoenix eyes with red eyeshadow squinted slightly at Zhang Ji, and he also hoped for Zhang Ji in his heart.

In the face of Zhao Ji's scorching gaze, although Zhang Ji didn't understand what Zhao Ji was thinking, he still proposed his own dredging methods.

Zhang Ji's method of dredging is to intensify the spread of rumors.

Didn't Chang Yu want to spread rumors? That machine just helped him!

The doormen who were responsible for spreading rumors had already been screened one by one by the net, secretly followed and observed, and then killed a few of them, and replaced them with disguise techniques.

Zhang Ji's method is to let the killers of the net call themselves Chang Yu's doormen, and use the identity of the so-called "Changxin Hou Menke" to guarantee the authenticity of their remarks and spread more rumors.

For example, Ying Zheng plans to abdicate and give up the throne to his younger brother Chang'an Jun Chengcheng; Another example is that Zhao Ji is preparing to marry Lu Buwei, the prime minister of Great Qin; Another example is the death of the Empress Dowager Huayang, and the people should prepare for a state funeral and other rumors.

Moreover, each rumor should specifically indicate when these things will happen, so that the more people who know about it, the better.

The best way to stop rumors is to make the words of the rumors lose the trust of the people who eat melons.

Migrating trees can be trusted, and migrating trees can also be discredited.

Zhang Ji's method is similar to that of Ximu Lixin, but it is the opposite.

When the people find out that these are rumors again and again, the rumors about the father-son relationship between Yingzheng and Lü Buwei will be self-defeating, and all the rumors will be automatically made up by the people's brains into someone maliciously spreading rumors.

At that time, if Chang Yu's doorman spreads rumors again, he will be directly taken down by the people on the street without the need to make a move.

After all, the Qin law stipulates that "those who accuse adulterers will be rewarded with the beheading of the enemy", and no one will refuse the reward brought by denunciating these traitors.
