When it comes to manipulating public opinion, Zhu Yunxi dares to say that he is the most familiar and knowledgeable person in the entire Ming Dynasty, and no one can match him.
After experiencing the bombardment of public opinion by a headline on that day in later generations, and having countless articles on private decryption methods, I have 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, it is not yet time."
Xie Jin is anxious.
He couldn't stand those people who slandered Ren Hengtai out of thin air. For this kind-hearted Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, Xie Jin admired him deeply after discovering his kind deeds.
At this time, when he heard that Zhu Yunxi said that the imperial court would not come forward for the time being, he immediately asked: "Does the grandson have to serve as the minister and stay behind closed doors, endure the gossip outside, and endure the wanton rumors?"
He doesn't think rumors can be stopped by slapping those who spread rumors.
Zhu Yunxi shook his head: "Brother Dashen thinks that punishing those who spread rumors now cannot solve the problem of the rumors themselves."
Jie Jin pursed his lips and said nothing, but the angry expression on his face was clear.
Zhu Gaochi was also nodding aside, obviously thinking the same thing as Jie Jin.
Zhu Yunxi smiled: "Since they have ignored them and done such despicable things, then don't blame us for being ruthless."
These words brought Xie Jin's curiosity back, and his eyes immediately showed an eager look.
Zhu Yunxi said: "I still need to bother the gentry brother to find the neighbors of Ren Shilang, as well as the people who know his nephew and niece, and ask these people to go to the gate of the imperial city to express his grievances for Shilang Ren.
”
Xie Jin's face was full of doubts, and then he showed an expression of understanding.
Zhu Gaochi, on the other hand, had a big mouth. He had never seen anything like this, where people would block the door of his house.
But Zhu Yunxi looked at him with a slight smile.
Zhu Gaochi rolled his eyes, and then he realized what he was doing. He couldn't help but whisper: "Brother Hei wants to make this matter bigger and stir up public opinion among the people? He wants to use the people who are most familiar with Shilang Ren and his family to clear Shilang Ren's name.
?"
Zhu Yunxi nodded: "The court says a thousand words, but the people who don't know the truth will only think that we are protecting Ren Hengtai. Only words from the mouths of the same people are what they are willing to believe." Zhu Yunxi knew very well that with regard to Ren Hengtai's current gossip, people would naturally blindly believe the rumors they heard.
At this time, no matter what explanation the government and the court gave, they would only think that it was officials protecting each other, or even the court shielding ministers.
This is a natural opposition and result. It does not mean that those people are stupid.
However, people with good intentions can always use such things to continuously attack the credibility of the government and the court, causing the government and the court to paint darker and darker stories, and they cannot explain a matter that is innocent.
Zhu Yunxi said again at this time: "When this matter becomes a big deal, it's time for the New Year greetings and it's time for Brother Da Shen to continue to contribute."
As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi stared dimly at Xie Jin in front of him. He could see clearly today that Xie Jin wanted to fight for the wretched Ren Hengtai. As long as it was Ren Hengtai's matter, it would definitely be handled by him. Zhu Gaochi was still thinking about what Zhu Yunxi said about who the people should listen to.
Xie Jin had already puffed up his chest and clasped his fists with his hands: "No matter what Grand Sun orders, I will definitely do it safely!"
Zhu Yunxi pressed his hands: "There is no need to be so serious, we are just thinking. Since those people ignored the gentleman's style and arranged for 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 fabricating things about Ren Hengtai, and he was a little hesitant about fabricating things about those people.
"God's Coming"
However, after thinking about it, Xie Jin slapped his thigh and gritted his teeth and said: "Repay the grievance with a straight line! I am willing to do this! I can only blame them for the despicable act first, and everything is to blame!"
Seeing Xie Jin nodding in agreement, Zhu Yunxi slowly revealed his subsequent plan.
"I will ask Sun Cheng and Tian Mai to help Mr. Gentleman collect some of those people's private affairs. If those people can fabricate things about Ren Hengtai, there is no way that they have nothing to do with them."
"Perhaps, only if they have done these things themselves can they make it so real."
Upon hearing what Zhu Yunxi said, those people might have really done what was rumored recently, Xie Jin's eyes immediately became sharp.
Zhu Yunxi said quietly: "When Sun Cheng and Tian Mai collect those things, Brother Da Shen does not need to name them. He only needs to describe the details of these people, and then focus on what they did. If Brother Da Shen
If you don’t despise this matter, you can summon some students who are worthy of the Imperial Academy’s supervision. Young people will always spontaneously extend their imagination on these matters.”
Xie Jin just nodded at the moment.
Zhu Gaochi became more and more thoughtful.
Zhu Yunxi coughed lightly, drank some tea, and then continued: "Never mention names, because the people will find the corresponding person through the details, and then they will truly believe it.
And it is absolutely impossible to be persuaded to change."
Xie Jin's back suddenly felt numb, and his eyes looked at the emperor's grandson in front of him in fear.
This is a method that takes advantage of people's hearts to the extreme.
It was hard for Xie Jin to imagine that if this matter were applied to him, he would probably have ten thousand mouths, which he couldn't explain.
People are not stupid, they just become ignorant because of their limited vision. Once they discover something themselves, they will leave an unbreakable trace in their hearts and will never be disturbed by the outside world.
Manipulating people's hearts is the most terrifying thing.
Zhu Yunxi gave Xie Jin a dull look: "People are simple and kind most of the time, so if it hadn't been for Ren Hengtai's incident, I would not have done this."
As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi stared at Xie Jin silently.
A person's worldview is constantly growing, and then slowly becomes fixed. But in many cases, the worldview can also be changed in a subtle way. This is the most terrifying part of the manipulation of public opinion.
Therefore, he is giving a promise that he will not use such means to deal with people without any reason in the future.
Xie Jinhou nodded blankly with fear, swallowed dryly, and whispered: "After this is done, what are you going to do next?"
"At that time, it will naturally be the time for the imperial court to come forward." Zhu Yunxi smiled silently and seemed very relaxed: "Presumably by that time, the people will expect and hope that the imperial court can come forward to clear Ren Hengtai's name and restore his reputation.
The imperial court is fair and equitable, and can understand the sentiments of the people..."
Before Zhu Yunxi could say the next words, Zhu Gaochi on the side made a strange sound, attracting Zhu Yunxi and Xie Jin's eyes.
Zhu Gaochi smiled bitterly and whispered: "At that time, the court complied with public opinion and restored the innocence of the minister. If the minister restored his reputation, the court could also gain the support of the people."
Zhu Gaochi, who had been staying in Peiping, suddenly felt that his trip to Yingtian was not in vain.
Xie Jin also sighed repeatedly.
How could he have imagined that what was originally just a matter of restoring Ren Hengtai's reputation would end up being a win-win situation.
Ren Hengtai regains his reputation.
Those who do evil will receive equal retribution.
The imperial court gained the hearts and support of the people.
The people got the truth and the court's attitude of always caring about them.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi said in a solemn tone: "The people's hearts are like water, and the people's hearts can be controlled. However, these methods are ultimately defeated by tricks. If you want to be what the people think about, your future governance must be implemented and let the people get real benefits."
The benefits of being here are that your life can be improved with your own eyes."
When Xie Jin and Zhu Gaochi heard this, they stood up at the same time.
Facing Zhu Yunxi, he bowed sincerely and respectfully.
"My grandson Jinyu has good advice, I would like to learn from it!"
Zhu Yunxi also stood up and pressed Zhu Gaochi down. The child's body and bones will be healed in a few days, so he should not be too tired.
Then he walked up to Xie Jin and patted him on the shoulder: "Although the bookstore is still about ten days away from being completed, we can try it first this time. We can print what we have written without adding a name. Let's try it first."
Sending it out is a way to see the effect in advance."
Xie Jin cupped his hands and raised his head: "Grandson..."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand: "Brother Gentleman, you will find that you have mastered a very powerful weapon, even sharper than the sword in the hands of a warrior."
……
Three days later.
The rumors in Yingtian City have become increasingly out of control, and hundreds of thousands of people throughout Yingtian City have joined in this unprecedented public discussion.
However, what is surprising is that the imperial court and the Yingtian government did not take any response or measures to this matter.
This caused the discussion to become even more heated.
And in the East Palace.
Zhu Yunxi, who launched the real public opinion war in the Ming Dynasty, became extremely relaxed.
"Uncle Twenty-Third, if you don't come down, you won't be able to eat any desserts and cakes today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and this month!"
Zhu Yunxi put one hand on his hips and pointed at a big tree in front of him with the other, glaring at the little twenty-third uncle Zhu Huang who had secretly climbed into the tree to dig out a bird's nest at some point while everyone was chatting, and issued the final threat.<
/p>
Now he eats sweets every day, but because he has been running wild in the East Palace all day long, he has not turned into a chubby ball. He holds a branch in front of him with both hands, clamps his legs on a horizontal bar, and his buttocks
I used my strength to push myself higher so that I could touch a bird's nest near Chi Chi.
I heard the threat from Yunxi’s nephew under the tree.
Zhu Huan Yuandu's eyes suddenly lost their brightness. He puffed up his face and curled his lips, lowering his head and staring at Zhu Yunxi who was standing under the tree.
"If you don't give me food, I will tell my father that you spanked me yesterday!"
This kid actually learned how to counter threats.
Zhu Yunxi was so angry that he stamped his feet and asked Yu Tian to lead people up the tree to be captured by the twenty-third prince.
Sun Cheng, who was in a hurry, walked in from outside.
"Third Master, some people gathered in front of the imperial city gate to avenge Ren Hengtai, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites!"
