Chapter 768. Fang Ru's private decision.





"Mrs. Ruyi, please give me your orders!"

After hearing Fang Ru's expression, Zhang Daoquan knew that Fang Ru was going to throw some troublesome things on him again, but he did not dare to resist Fang Ru and did not have the capital to resist, so he just replied with a grimace.

Fang Ru glanced at Zhang Daoquan, and naturally saw Zhang Daoquan's reluctance, but ignored him and continued to give instructions with a cold face: "First of all, the first thing is, I asked you to secretly collect the private information of scholars around the capital.

I wrote anti-poetry and anti-essay, how did it go?"

Zhang Daoquan said quickly: "It's all done. So far, we have collected a total of thirty-seven anti-poems and counter-essays written by twenty-eight scholars. There are also some poems that look ambiguous, but if it is far-fetched, there are also

It’s meant to ridicule the imperial court.”

Fang Ru looked satisfied, nodded and said: "Very good, give me a copy of this information to take away... In addition, after ten days, you will find someone to bring these counter-poems and counter-articles to Dongchang and

Whistleblower from the West Factory!"

After hearing Fang Ru's instructions, Zhang Daoquan's expression changed slightly.

Tongji Temple has now developed into an intelligence agency under Zhao Junchen, so Zhang Daoquan is also a well-informed person. Naturally, he knows that the imperial court has been closely monitoring the movements of scholars and conducting strict investigations in various places recently because of the former young master Guo Tang.

With anti-text and anti-poetry, a literary disaster has quietly arisen.

Especially since Dongchang has just been reorganized and purged, the newly appointed Dongchang executives will inevitably go to war to prove their capabilities to Emperor Deqing. Fang Ru's decision will add fuel to this cultural disaster.

fire?

However, this matter is relatively easy to handle. As long as the existence of Tongji Temple is not exposed, there will be no hidden dangers, so Zhang Daoquan quickly replied: "Don't worry, Mrs. Ruyi, I will definitely handle this matter."

Fang Ru nodded and said: "As for the second thing, I secretly bribed a group of storytellers to make up some stories about the Mongols invading the northwest frontier and abusing the people. The Mongols in the stories must be cruel and cold-blooded, and the people must be miserable and innocent.

, the court officials must be dim-witted and incompetent, and the frontier soldiers must be cowardly... The more exciting the better, and then spread these stories everywhere to try to inspire the government and the public to sympathize with the people in the northwest and hate the Mongols... This case

There’s no rush, you can do it step by step, but you must see significant results within a month!”

After learning that Zhao Junchen had begun to take control of the Shaanxi-Gansu border defense, Fang Ru's intention in making this decision was naturally to build momentum for Zhao Junchen!

After all, the northwest provinces are too far away from the capital. The last time the Mongols actually threatened the people in the capital was a hundred years ago. Under such circumstances, the vast majority of people will not care about this year's fire siege. Fire siege and banditry happen every year.

, everyone has become accustomed to it. Even if Zhao Junchen led the border army to repel the invading Mongolian army, the people and scholars would not be too impressed. Zhao Junchen's evaluation only added one more item: "understanding military strategy."

"The Art of War" is nothing more than "The Art of War", which does little to improve Zhao Junchen's reputation and prestige.

However, if there had been enough publicity and momentum in advance, the result would have been very different. After Zhao Junchen repelled the invasion of the Mongolian army, his evaluation would have increased significantly, and he might even have become the "savior of the people" and the "savior of the imperial court" in the world.

"Pillar Stone" may even completely reverse Zhao Junchen's reputation plan.

Of course, Zhang Daoquan was only a marginal figure in Zhao Junchen's sect and did not know Zhao Junchen's plan, so he did not understand the true intention of Fang Ru's order. However, this matter was not difficult to handle, so he agreed happily.

He said: "This matter is easy to handle. Madam Ruyi, just don't worry. I will definitely handle it well!"

Seeing Zhang Daoquan's nonchalant look, Fang Ru raised her eyebrows and warned: "Although this matter is easy to handle, it is not easy to do it well! If the results I want to see are not achieved after two months...

Today, Tongji Temple is on the right track, even if the host is changed, it will not have any impact, Mr. Zhang, don’t you think so?"

Hearing Fang Ru's warning, Zhang Daoquan shuddered and quickly reassured: "The villain will never dare to neglect, he will definitely find the best storyteller to make up stories, and will definitely try his best to publicize these stories, and will never let Mrs. Ruyi

disappointment!"

Fang Ru nodded slightly and said, "As for the third thing..."

Speaking of this, a trace of hesitation flashed in Fang Ru's eyes, as if she was a little undecided.

But in the end, Fang Ru gritted her teeth and said: "Wait a month later, that is, after the last thing is done, secretly spread a rumor to the capital, saying that this year's fire screening of intruders is different from the past. Southern Xinjiang

The Mongolian tribes have been unified, and they have raised more than 200,000 troops to invade the border areas, plunder the people, and will invade other parts of Zhili at any time! The governors of the northwest provinces feared the enemy like tigers and treated the people like grass. They actually arrested ten victims of the disaster in the northwest.

There are more than 10,000 people, but they also gave these victims and the disaster relief grain and grass allocated by the court to the northwest to the Mongols, betraying the country to the Mongols and begging for peace!"

After hearing Fang Ru's last order, Zhang Daoquan's expression suddenly changed!

Different from the previous two instructions, it is not an exaggeration to say that this matter is spreading rumors to stir up trouble, slander the imperial court, and confuse people's hearts! After this rumor spreads, once it alarms the imperial court, the imperial court will definitely investigate, and Tongji Temple may

It will be exposed! Once Tongji Temple is exposed, it will be a disaster!

Therefore, Zhang Daoquan wanted to find a way to refuse.

However, before Zhang Daoquan spoke, Fang Ru said in a cold voice: "This matter is certainly risky, but I have given you a full month of preparation time. If you can't erase the traces after such a long time,

, to protect itself, it only shows that Tongji Temple is incompetent and has no effect on my master... In that case, Tongji Temple no longer needs to be kept!"

Zhang Daoquan's expression froze, and he felt miserable.

But under Fang Ru's threat, Zhang Daoquan still had no confidence to refuse, so he reluctantly agreed: "This matter... I will also arrange it carefully, but if the court investigates it in the future, I hope Mrs. Ruyi can

Help me secretly!"

Fang Ru snorted coldly, her almond-shaped eyes full of determination, and said: "The East Factory is in chaos now, the West Factory has been deeply penetrated by us, and Huo Zhengyuan, the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, is my master's confidant. Even if the court investigates you in the future, you will

What is there to worry about? Don’t worry, as long as you do everything perfectly, you will never be traced!”

After hearing Fang Ru's guarantee, Zhang Daoquan finally felt a little more at ease. He nodded repeatedly and said, "That's good, that's good. With Mrs. Ruyi's guarantee, I will feel at ease!"

However, although Zhang Daoquan felt relieved, he did not notice the complicated thoughts that seemed hesitant and determined deep in Fang Ru's eyes.

In fact, among the three things Fang Ru ordered Zhang Daoquan, the first two were indeed arranged by Zhao Junchen, but the last order was Fang Ru's private decision!

Zhao Junchen sent someone to inform Fang Ru about various changes in the northwest provinces, including the appeasement and peace begging by the northwest governors. However, Zhao Junchen only informed Fang Ru about this matter so that Fang Ru would know what was going on.

I hope Fang Ru will use this matter to stir up trouble, and even remind Fang Ru repeatedly to keep it secret!

In Zhao Junchen's eyes, the begging and appeasement plan of the northwest governors had a great impact on the reputation of the imperial court and would create a series of bad images that were not conducive to the overall situation of the imperial court. Due to various considerations, Zhao Junchen did not want this matter to be made public.

To the public!

But Fang Ru is not as worried about the overall situation of the court as Zhao Junchen. There is only room for Zhao Junchen in her heart! Everything she does is for the benefit of Zhao Junchen! As for the rest of the things, Fang Ru has no room at all.

I won't take it to heart.

In Fang Ru's eyes, the appeasement and peace plan of the northwest governors was a good opportunity for Zhao Junchen! This plan was too cruel and betrayed more than 100,000 victims of the northwest disaster. Once it is made public, it will inevitably usher in countless verbal and written criticisms.

, the common people must have reviled it, but the more this plan is hated by others, the more Zhao Junchen, who personally stopped this plan, will be praised by the world!

After this incident spreads, Zhao Junchen's reputation will inevitably be completely reversed, and millions of people in several provinces in the northwest will miss Zhao Junchen's kindness!

Compared with this, the damage to the court's credibility, the people's distrust of the court, the turmoil between the government and the opposition, etc., are all insignificant matters in Fang Ru's eyes.

Therefore, although Zhao Junchen repeatedly told Fang Ru to keep it secret, Fang Ru decided to make the matter public after repeated consideration, just for Zhao Junchen!

This is the first time that Fang Ru has disobeyed Zhao Junchen's order. She is inevitably a little uneasy, but Fang Ru has no regrets!

As long as it is beneficial to Zhao Junchen, Fang Ru will do it no matter how Zhao Junchen punishes her in the future!

*

After giving Zhang Daoquan three tasks, Fang Ru also gave some instructions, then left Tongji Temple and returned to the Zhao Mansion.

Although Dongchang has always been unlucky in recent times, as Zhao Junchen's status and power have become higher and higher, and the relationship with the inner court has become more and more rigid, Dongchang's supervision of Zhao Junchen has also become closer and closer. Many times,

Zhao Junchen felt helpless!

Now, after the top management of Dongchang was wiped out by Emperor Deqing, there will inevitably be omissions in the surveillance of Zhao Mansion. This is Fang Ru's opportunity to show off her skills! Zhao Junchen still has many plans, and it is time to implement them!

Therefore, Fang Ru will be very busy in the next period of time!

Not only did Fang Ru start to get busy, but as Bao Wenjie returned to Beijing to report various changes in the northwest provinces, the entire officialdom of the capital quietly started to move.

In the afternoon of this day, Liang Fuchen left the capital in an emergency and hurried toward the northwest with Emperor Deqing's imperial edict.

At the same time, the Ministry of Industry began to raise ordnance, the Ministry of Household Affairs began to mobilize money and food, and the Ministry of War issued official documents to mobilize troops from various places.

And at the same time that the officialdom of the capital began to function, there was another scene on the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu!



Well, the second update! There is another update!
