Chapter 82: The Role of Rumors, I'm a Villain

This kid has a big breath?

Zhu Yuanzhang is interested and wants to hear what Zhang Yi has to say?

Using Longhu Mountain, choosing Yangzhou, and achieving the purpose of propaganda through epidemic prevention in an epidemic area are already the best practices that Zhu Yuanzhang can think of.

Could this kid have a better way?

"Tell me about ......"

Lao Zhu couldn't help but sit up straight, and the others also put on a posture of listening.

Zhang Yidao:

"Actually, if I let me think about it myself, I may not be able to come up with a better idea than Your Majesty, but since I have Your Majesty Zhuyu in front of me, I can follow Your Majesty's train of thought with a little evil way!"

"Let's sort out the difficulties Your Majesty is facing and the hopes that Your Majesty wants to achieve......

Your Majesty's difficulties: First, now that the Ming Dynasty has been established, the people's hearts are unstable, and the people do not trust the government;

Second, the concept of the pox method itself is difficult to be accepted by the people;

Third, His Majesty is afraid that if it continues, the officials will not be able to govern in an unfavorable manner, and it will be difficult to carry out government decrees and deceive;

Fourth: Your Majesty is afraid that because of the chaos of officials, good things will turn into bad things, and the prestige of the government will be hurt! ”

Zhang Yi listed the difficulties of implementing the pox method one by one, and the others nodded one after another.

These things have been analyzed by Liu Bowen, and they also recognize them very much.

"Now that you know the pain points, let's see how Your Majesty solves them, and what effect he expects to achieve?"

Zhang Yi continued:

"The first and second points of the problem, Your Majesty will put the solution on my Longhu Mountain, since the people lack education, use the way of the gods to guide them, Longhu Mountain has prestige among the people, this matter is easy to solve!

The third and fourth points, the problem lies in the imperial court, the magistrates are not in power, and bullying the upper and lower is a common problem in the officialdom of all dynasties, if Your Majesty really spreads out the pox method in an all-round way, as Liu Fuzi said, deceiving the upper and lower levels, and letting the people get into danger for the sake of assessment will almost certainly happen.

But after His Majesty chose the location in Yangzhou, he only stared at a local government, so he didn't have to worry about chaos below! ”

"Once the problem is resolved, we can see what His Majesty expects......"

"Your Majesty's expectations, first, to promote the pox method, so that the people will not suffer from smallpox, and what he hopes to get, firstly, is to be able to show grace to the people and quickly win the hearts of the people, and secondly, His Majesty hopes to take this as an important political achievement for him to leave a name in history in the future......

To accomplish this goal, this matter must be handled quickly and effectively!

So Your Majesty chose Yangzhou ......"

Zhang Yi peeled back the cocoon, and everyone present could clearly sort out the thinking behind the emperor's decision.

Zhu Biao, as the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, is the one who benefits the most, others may just listen to the fun, but Zhang Yi let him understand his father's current politics.

This is something that Zhu Yuanzhang may not say so carefully even if he teaches by word and deed.

"Why Yangzhou?"

Zhang Yi asked this question and asked everyone to think about it.

Yangzhou, who doesn't know in Chinese history?

Once the world's first city,

The old man left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March, which has gradually declined now.

Yangzhou that Zhu Yuanzhang took over from the Tsing Yi Army ten years ago, Yangzhou City, which once had a population of hundreds of thousands, has been killed to the point that only eighteen families remain.

Yangzhou City is the epitome of the world at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, and the world that Zhu Yuanzhang took over from the Yuan Dynasty can really only be described as a mess.

However, after Zhu Yuanzhang took over Yangzhou, he has been moving people to Yangzhou one after another to strengthen Yangzhou.

Without him, Yangzhou City, located on the side of the Grand Canal, is a transportation hub, and there is an ineffable reason for it.

That Yangzhou city was also a famous city that witnessed the historical changes of the Han family.

Governing Yangzhou well can be regarded as setting an example for the world.

Zhu Yuanzhang's choice of Yangzhou may not have this meaning.

"Because Your Majesty has been migrating people, it is not surprising that there is a plague in Yangzhou City!

One of the most important reasons why there will be a great epidemic is the movement of people......

This time, His Majesty chose Yangzhou in the state capital where the accident occurred, firstly, he wanted to use Yangzhou's reputation to make a name for himself, and secondly, Yangzhou itself was a transportation hub with a large number of merchants...... Your Majesty wants to take advantage of the convenience of Yangzhou to spread the news all over the world!

Therefore, in Yangzhou, the imperial court must do a good job in promoting the pox method, as long as it is done well, as the merchants spread the news, and then implement the pox method, the resistance will be much smaller......"

"That's right!"

Zhu Biao couldn't help but agree, and immediately glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was also slightly bowed.

Zhang Yi is organized and sorts out his purpose, which is really good, but this guy says that he can do better than himself.

So what does he want to do?

Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Zhang Yi smiled.

"Since We've sorted out Your Majesty's purpose, we also understand Your Majesty's purpose, about how to deal with the pox method, this kid can't get involved, but how to spread the pox method, the kid thinks he can add some drama......"

"Add drama?"

Everyone looked at each other, and Zhang Yi's words made people confused.

"In my book of heaven, I have seen that there will be a discipline in the future, called communication...... I won't go into detail about the content, but there is a piece of knowledge about the circulation of information, but let the kid remember it! ”

As soon as I heard Zhang Yi say, what he wanted to talk about came from the future, and everyone was not sleepy.

"What does that mean?"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but ask, Zhang Yi said:

"Uncle, do you know what is the fastest and most widely spread thing in the world?"

"What?"

"Rumors!"

Zhang Yi gave an answer that everyone couldn't guess, what the hell is a rumor?

Could it be that Zhang Yi meant to let them spread rumors.

"Don't underestimate the power of rumors, just like we read history, the official history is interesting?

Aren't those who write wild histories just spreading rumors, but do you think in the market, is there a market for rumors about romance, or is there a market for serious historical materials?

Also, if a person, can we describe him as dignified and easy for the people to remember, or describe him as having crooked teeth and eyes, and his shoehorn face is easy to remember? ”

"The latter!"

Zhu Yuanzhang listened attentively and couldn't help answering Zhang Yi's question.

Suddenly, his face was hard to look at, shoehorn face?

Lao Zhu suddenly remembered a dusty memory!

Damn, the rumor-monger named Zhang Han hasn't been caught yet, so I must let Gao Jianxian work hard to find out the rumor-monger!

He lost his good mood and lost a good face to Zhang Yi:

"What kind of evil way is this? If this method is used by the king, won't it tarnish the emperor's reputation? ”

Zhang Yiyan was not angry when he heard this, but his mouth would not admit defeat, that is:

"The emperor walks the royal road, but the boy I am a villain, but then again, your majesty now, does you really have that prestige to do the royal road?

Uncle thought that this method was inflicted, but he never thought about where these methods evolved? It's not that Your Majesty hasn't used it, it's just that he didn't think that these means could be used for the people and propaganda! ”

"The Art of War!"

Zhu Yuanzhang has to be reminded by Zhang Yi, such as Daigo empowerment!
