"Can Village Chief explain in detail?”
Both Ying Zheng and Li Si could only think of the worst possible solution. Li Si indeed could not think of any good solution, because he advocated the Legalism, and advocated doing everything according to the law.
As for Brother Zheng, it was even simpler. He didn't destroy the Six Nations with words. Whoever didn't agree would be beaten until they were convinced. If there were really iron-headed children, he would just kill them.
As for Meng Tian…It was better to selectively ignore it. This kind of conspiracy really did not suit him.
"Listen well, the so-called middle strategy is to give them a taste of their own medicine. They can pour dirty water on Brother Zheng, so why can't Brother Zheng? I believe that there must be a secret force within the imperial court that is secretly spreading bad rumors about the nobles of the six dynasties. The power of the imperial court was much greater than that of the nobles of the six dynasties. Over time, the people would naturally believe in the imperial court and not the nobles of the six dynasties.”
When Jian Heng said that, Brother Zheng and Li Si immediately looked embarrassed.
"Village Chief Jian Heng, we've actually tried this method, but it didn't work out well. Especially those commoners who belong to the Six Nations, they're more willing to believe the rumors of the nobles of the Six Nations.”
Li Si wasn't stupid. When the rumors started, he tried to get people to stop them, but the people didn't seem to believe the rumors he spread.
"This kind of thing should be confidential. Li Fa, how did you, an accountant, know?”
Jian Heng stared at Li Si with a strange expression. How could the imperial court say such things so casually?
Li Si knew that he had misspoken and quickly explained to Jian Heng,""It's like this. There are people in my clan who are officials in the court, so they more or less know some information.”
Hearing Li Si's explanation, Jian Heng understood that his uncle might have let it slip.
"I see. Your surname is Li. Are you related to the current Prime Minister, Li Si?”
I am Li Si himself!!!
Li Si really wanted to say these words, but Ying Zheng did not intend to reveal his identity at the moment, so he could only say casually,"
"My uncle is not Prime Minister Li, but I am indeed a distant relative of Prime Minister Li.”
"Oh, I see. Back to the topic. The words spread by the imperial court must be about how good His Majesty is and how bad the nobles of the six dynasties are, right?”
"That's true. Is there a problem?”
"Pa!"
Jian Heng slapped his thigh and said to Li Si,""This is a huge problem. Before they unified the six countries, the six countries had always said that the Qin country was a violent Qin country. They have already said this for almost a hundred years. Compared to the news spread by the Imperial Court, the people of the original six countries would naturally believe the words of the violent Qin country.”
"I see."
Li Si was enlightened. It was no wonder his plan to stop the rumors with rumors did not work. The more lies he told, the more true it became. The story of the Raging Qin had been spreading for nearly a hundred years, and the rumors he had only spread for a few months could not compare to this rumor.
" Therefore, if we want to break the deep-rooted thinking of the common people, we must have evidence. Although most of the nobles of the six countries have become civilians after His Majesty unified the six countries, there are still some small nobles who are very active in their land. Therefore, the first step of the court should be to find out the dark information about these nobles and then publicize it in front of the common people.”
"This is indeed a solution, but it can't be said that all nobles are like that.”
"That's right, but we can find a few typical incidents to publicize. Find a notorious noble in every region of the original Six Nations 'territory and then publicize his crimes to the public, especially those acts of bullying the people and bullying men and women. We must spread them quickly and strive to let the people of the world know.”
Ying Zheng's eyes lit up. That's right, he had always been thinking of ways to stop the rumors, so the rumors he spread were mainly based on refutation. But who said that he had to refute? You said that I am the Violent Qin, so why can't I report your dirty deeds?
"At this point, the people will start to hesitate. Are those nobles who talk about the Qin Dynasty really trustworthy? When the commoners began to suspect, the imperial court could continue to dig up the dirt on those who had already died, such as what the king had done or what the high officials had done. As time passed, the commoners would be immersed in the dirt on the nobles of the six dynasties, and naturally, no one would pay attention to the violent Qin.”
"Pa!"
Someone slapped his thigh again, but this time, it was not Jian Heng, but Li Si.
"This is a brilliant move. The Imperial Court can also use the original conflicts between the six countries to create rumors and stir up their conflicts. Then, our Qin country can take the opportunity to be a peacemaker, rope in a group, punish a group, and kill a group. In this way, in less than three years, His Majesty can take off the label of 'Violent Qin.'”
"That's right, that's right. Although the nobles of the six states are harmonious on the surface, they have their own ulterior motives in the dark. Your Majesty can use this to divide and rule them.”
"Such a wonderful plan is actually only the middle plan? What's the best plan?"
In Ying Zheng's eyes, this was already a perfect solution, which not only consolidated Ying Zheng's reputation, but also solved the conspiracy of the nobles of the six dynasties. But in Jian Heng's eyes, this was only the middle plan?
"This best plan is both simple and difficult. It depends on whether Your Majesty has the courage to do so.”
Courage? Brother Zheng frowned. Who was he? Ying Zheng, who had swept across the Eight Desolates, the First Emperor who boasted that he had made great contributions and surpassed the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors, who in this world could compare to him in terms of courage?
"Village Chief, please elaborate."
Brother Zheng wanted to hear what Jian Heng's best plan was, to actually make even Jian Heng, his little fanboy, doubt him.
"The best solution is to solve the rumors at the root. Have you ever thought about where the rumors come from?”
Li Si hesitated for a moment before saying,""There are two reasons. First, someone deliberately spread rumors, but the people were ignorant and believed them.”
"You're right. We can't stop the spreading of rumors, but we can think of ways to solve the problems of the people. For example, we can raise the level of knowledge of the people. After reading more books, they will naturally understand some principles. They will also be able to distinguish whether rumors are true or not, not what they hear.”
"This... this is not the case. If the people read too many books and had different thoughts, wouldn't the world be in chaos?”
"What mess!"
