Chapter 256: Reversal
"It's good to die, it's not dead, everyone is in trouble. β
As long as the head catcher gets someone, it doesn't matter whether he lives or dies, and when he took Zhang Zhong, he also saw the unpasted paper, which can be said to be a stolen person, and the person is dead, and the matter is determined to be an iron case.
In any case, this matter can be settled, and the people above are handed over.
Opposite the stone bridge, there was a wine shop, and there were not many people who saw this scene, so they deliberately drank at the window, waiting for a pair of masters and servants, but they didn't fall at all, and they saw everything in their eyes.
At this time, the sky was overcast at some point, the drizzle was drizzling, and there was a sound of the piano drifting in the distance with the wind.
The wild Taoist held up the umbrella and asked, "Lord, are you a little unhappy?"
Su Ziji did not speak.
The two looked at the river not far away, the wind blew the water surface, and a few white ducks swam past the river, and after a long time, Su Ziji opened his mouth: "This kind of filthy thing is the most gossip of the people, and I am not afraid that it will not spread." β
"But this inside story, hooking vines and vines, what can't you say? Not only is the implication too great, but it is also a lot of trouble, so you can reverse the plan according to the plan. β
The wild Daoist immediately replied "yes": "Don't worry, my lord, because the plan has been prepared for a long time, the three intentions at the beginning were fake, and now they are already reversing, you can go down and listen." β
Su Ziji nodded and walked towards the bustling area.
When I went to the street, I found that it was the street pawn, and they were also talking about today's first sensational scandal.
It has nothing to do with human life, it's all some ugly things in the house, the woman is either a daughter or an official's wife, and the man is a noble son who can even hear about some deeds from the pawns in the capital, the two sides are mixed together, it is really exciting, and I can't help but think about gossip.
There are also enemies of the woman's mother's family or her mother-in-law's family, who followed the fall into the well, fueled the troubles, and pushed this matter more and more violently.
"I'll just say, why did the Qin family withdraw from the marriage with the Zhao family in the first place, dare to love the women of the Zhao family have always been dissolute, and the son of the Qin family doesn't want to be a living king, so he retired!"
"The Zhao family still has the face to say that the son of the Qin family is at fault first, ha! Can do such an ugly thing, he still dares to beat a rake! Everyone looks at it, they have already made a marriage, and they still have to date someone, but they have no fornication, and they have already put a hat on their fiancΓ©'s family, should this kind of woman withdraw from the marriage?"
A few idlers immediately laughed and shouted, "Yes!"
"It's unreasonable for you to speak, the daughter of the Zhao family written on this piece of paper is another family, and it is her cousin who has been engaged to the Qin family, how can you count it together?
"Hey, how can I be regarded as slandering people? I can't write two Zhao characters in one stroke, and being a cousin can do such a dissolute thing, it can be seen that this cousin is not a good woman, how can I say it? I want to talk not only about her, but also about the women of the Zhao family, and comment on them one by one, so that everyone will not be deceived, so that they can do this living king, you say, is there any reason for me?"
Su Ziji looked at the voice, and saw that the person who was saying this with a smile was a thin man, who looked like a ruffian, and the theory was that it was a man who looked like a servant, his face was red, and he obviously couldn't fight.
Just listening to this lean man, from time to time mentioning how the Zhao family is, and taking advantage of the situation to elevate the Qin family, you can see that I am afraid that this Qin family has done something, and take advantage of this opportunity to fall into the well and step on the daughter of the Zhao family, so as to wash away his reputation.
Su Ziji had expected this kind of thing for a long time, but when he saw it happening at this time, his heart sank.
Walking further forward, I heard people continuing to talk about this matter not far away, but this time, someone was defending Liao Bei, the squire of the military department.
β...... This is obviously all nonsense, it is slander!"
"This said that on the morning of the 25th of last month, Lin Gongzi and Liao Bei had a private meeting in Cui Mingju, but who doesn't know, this is the queen's mother's birthday, on that day, not to mention Liao Bei's family, that is, the lady of the fifth grade or above, all entered the palace to meet the queen mother at dawn, and was given lunch, and only went out of the palace in the afternoon, this is all recorded, can Liao Bei still enter the palace to meet the queen on the one hand, and fly out to have a private meeting with people on the other hand?"
"And this second lady of the Jiang family, you forgot, there was a temple fair at that time, and the second lady Jiang not only watched the play, but also donated silver to the people who did not accept the green and yellow according to the routine, this is also a matter for everyone, can everyone still excuse the second Mrs. Jiang and lie?"
"You people who have been blinded by lard, you don't know the truth or falsehood, you don't know right from wrong, you just follow the nonsense, spray feces all over your mouth, and then talk nonsense like this, slandering the reputation of innocent women, but you lack great virtue!"
As soon as this person's words came out, they really had an effect, and the original one-sided crusade and the people who watched the excitement were also suspicious.
Is this really nonsense, and nothing on this paper should be taken seriously?
But some people sneered: "There are so many people on this, even if one or two are mistaken, is it all fake? True and fake, why was Zhang Shilang's stepwife crying and sent back to her parents' house?"
Listening to these discussions, Su Ziji walked slowly.
The wild Taoist followed at this time, and there was no one else nearby, so he couldn't help asking: "This is the reversal of the lord's plan, but the ancients said that Ci is not in charge of the army, and the lord deliberately left a mistake to make people doubt the truth of this paper sticker, what does this mean?"
Su Ziji sighed and said, "This plan is too poisonous." β
"Even if the people selected are corrupt and lawless families, and women also have misconduct, but this matter spreads, even if the atmosphere of this dynasty is more open, the women involved are afraid that it will be difficult to survive, and even the women of their maiden family are afraid that they will be unlucky. β
"Among them, I don't know how many people will be implicated. β
"Now this reversal is actually to give the parties a step down. β
"Eunuchs and powerful families, in fact, there are a lot of such things, but they are not exposed, and now they are given a chance to cover up, which is a fig leaf, and the situation is different. β
"As long as the woman insists that it is slanderous, no matter whether it is separated or not, or if it is broken internally, at least it will not ruin the family, let the woman in question die, and it will not implicate the reputation of the girl of the whole clan. β
"In fact, there was a gourd nunnery in the previous dynasty, which is generally similar to this, that is, the gentry woman and the nun had too close contacts, and had an affair with the thief. β
"And executed for homicide. β
"Now I have given the excuse of reversal, you see, the government will speak in unison and regard this list as a lie. β
When the wild Taoist heard this, he was silent for a while: "The benevolence of the lord can be described as fine, and there is foreshadowing when the paper is pasted, but this will be low in the damage to Lin Yuqing." β
