Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1180 Liu Ji's Calculation

Comparing hatred and future, which is more important?

This is a difficult choice. The benevolent sees benevolence and the wise sees wisdom. No matter which choice you choose, it has its own reasons.

So, which is more important, compared with hatred and immortality?
This makes the choice much easier, and most people will choose the latter.

A life of seventy has been rare since ancient times. When the life span is over, it will return to the underworld, dust to ashes to dust, all hatred, friendship, and interests will be blown away with the wind, and will disappear in the boundless years without a trace.

Decades later, who will still remember who and who had an endless hatred with whom?
But if one's name can still be passed down in the world after one's death, and one's grandchildren can remember it with a "magnificent and upright" image, that is the lofty goal one should pursue in one's life!
Liu Ji is going to do this now!

Is Fang Jun really wronged?Is he the murderer who killed Changsun Dan?
In Liu Ji's view, these are not important at all!
This song "Green Pine" can establish Fang Jun's upright image!In the Tang Dynasty, when literati and poets praised poetry like crazy, as long as there was this poem, even if Fang Jun could not escape the guilt in the end, many people believed that he was just a victim in the struggle between imperial power and aristocrats.

Fang Jun's future may be tragic, but it is definitely positive!
Words are born from the heart, poems are written with aspirations!
Just imagine, how can a person who can write such a poem that endures humiliation and bears the burden of righteousness be a cruel and vicious murderer?

When the background of this poem is Fang Jun's current experience, it will surely become a well-known story and spread all over the world and future generations!This is a story about loyal ministers and righteous men being wronged, and it is the most popular version among the people!
If I can play the image of a censor who defies power, is upright and upright, and wholeheartedly spares his official life in order to clear up the grievances of loyal ministers, after all, this story will be sung by people all over the world!

Compared with that, what is the little bit of hatred with Fang Jun?
The more Liu Ji thought about it, the more excited he became. With brisk steps, he rushed all the way back to Yushitai, gathered all his confidants, Yushi, and secretly studied how to put his ideas into practice, how to make every step perfect...

*****
How to manipulate the poem "Green Pine" to benefit oneself and maximize the benefits requires a lot of planning, but the most important thing is to spread this poem as quickly as possible.

If this poem cannot be known to the world, if Fang Jun's "injustice" cannot be shaken all over the world, how will Liu Ji benefit from it?

Immediately, Liu Ji sent the rubbing version of this poem to Jingzhao Mansion...

Even if Fang Jun is not around, the Jingzhao Mansion is still headed by Fang Jun's family.For example, Shao Yin Dugucheng and others, photographed by Fang Jun's power, even if Fang Jun is imprisoned, he still follows the rules and dare not make the slightest mistake.

It's easy to show off at this time, but once Fang Jun comes back full-faced, who would dare to face his anger?

Entrusted by Fang Jun, Du Chuke is leading Wang Xuance, Li Yifu and others to prepare for major events, hoping that once this matter is launched, it will shake the court and divert people's attention.When Liu Jie came to the door, Du Chuke was also a little dazed.

When Liu Jie expressed his thoughts, Du Chuke became more and more confused...

Doesn't this person have a grudge with Fang Jun and is quite at odds?

Why did he take the wrong medicine and start to appeal for Fang Jun?
But after all, Du Chuke is mature and prudent. After a little thought, he immediately ordered the new issue of "Zhenguan Weekly" to publish this poem. No matter what Liu Ji's plan is, it is good for Fang Jun, so why not for what?

It is simply a poem, without any narration, let alone any encouragement.

The circulation of "Zhenguan Weekly" is getting bigger and bigger, and the audience is getting wider and wider. It is sold in almost all large-scale prosperous cities in Datang.And Fang Jun's reputation is now well-known to everyone, especially his "achievement" in poetry has already reached the pinnacle. Even if those literary masters expressed their disdain sourly, it did not prevent the popular popularity among the people.

As the place where "Zhenguan Weekly" was launched, the upright and majestic "Green Pine" was sung in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City almost overnight...

The stories that common people like to watch most are those loyal ministers who were wronged first and then avenged their shame.

What is a minister who can attack powerful families and protect ordinary people but a loyal minister?
What is a minister who dares to interrogate a powerful family like the Yuan family and avenge the grievances of dozens of innocent girls who were brutally slaughtered?
What is it but a loyal minister to be able to fight bloody Turkic wolf cavalry in the Western Regions, put down the Shanyue rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River, and expand overseas territories?
How could such a loyal minister be a murderer?
Fang Erlang's hands are covered with blood, and he holds countless lives, but which one is not from a foreign country?

Besides, the eldest grandson Dan was going to take advantage of the imperial staff to murder Fang Erlang's life...

Wouldn't it be good for such a vicious and vicious person to die?
Early the next morning, Chang'an shook!

Countless people from Chang'an City, outside the city, and Guanzhong counties spontaneously gathered in front of the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment, crowds of people rubbed shoulders, and surrounded the main street in front of the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment!
However, the common people showed great restraint, and gathered here with chatter, but they did not act excessively.

Nowadays, the sage king is in the court and the virtuous prime minister is in charge of the government. It's just that occasionally one or two treacherous craftsmen kill Zhongliang, and His Majesty is deceived.Everyone gathered here is just to attract His Majesty's attention, to intervene in Fang Erlang's case personally, so as not to make loyal officials wronged and treacherous sycophants succeed!
But all over the world, who dares to ignore it lightly?

The imperial guards in Suwei Miyagi feared that the people would attack the palace, and they were all in full armor and waiting in full battle; the left and right Marquis Wu and Jingzhao Mansion patrols were all dispatched to maintain order, the guards entered and exited strictly, and Chang'an City was under martial law!

Chang'an shakes, the government and the public shake!
His Majesty Li Er in the palace looked gloomy and embarrassed after hearing this!

As an emperor, what are you most afraid of?
It's not that the bandits are raging, and the suppression is restless; it's not that the courtiers are rebelling, causing troubles to Xiaoqiang; it's not that foreign enemies invade the border, and a big war is about to start...

It's that the people's hearts are not there, and the people's grievances are boiling!
No one can see the power of people's hearts more clearly than His Majesty Li Er!

Mencius said: "The emperor is like a boat; the common people are like water. The water will carry the boat, and the water will cover it. If the king thinks about danger in this way, will the danger not come?"

His Majesty Li Er even thought of Wei Zheng's original "Ten Thoughts" with a sentence: "The grievances are not great, but people are to be feared; when a boat is overturned, one should be cautious."

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world!

Why is it that a mere Fang Jun's lawsuit can inspire so many unrelated people to raise their arms and gather in the capital?
It is nothing more than the actions of the Ministry of Punishment that aroused public outrage.

But even so, His Majesty Li Er also felt the power from those unarmed and humble ordinary people!These seemingly humble "ant people" are the foundation of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty!Isn't the reason why I want to fight against the aristocratic family and support the poor family is to win over the ordinary people who occupy the vast majority of the world, so that I can get more powerful help and get rid of the threat of the aristocratic family?
His Majesty Li Er took a deep breath, and ordered the servants on the left and right: "Immediately go to the Political Affairs Hall to inform the ministers, and let them draw up an order for me to stop the Ministry of Criminal Justice from trying Fang Jun's case alone. Judge!"

"promise!"

The servant rushed to the political affairs hall to convey the emperor's will to the prime ministers.

The chancellors and political counselors in the Zhengshitang were startled by the siege of the Criminal Department’s Yamen, and they were discussing whether to adopt a gentle strategy and take strict precautions to gradually evacuate, or to use force to disperse directly with violent measures...

In general, most people agree with the former.

Even those descendants of aristocratic families who have never taken the "ant people" seriously, should not be shocked by the power of these ant people gathered at this moment, and then think of the mansion that was stormed by a group of angry people not long ago and burned to the ground. Who dares to use force to disperse the Yuan family in Daodefang?
Once these people are provoked, it will be a disaster that will sweep through Guanzhong...

The capital is in turmoil, and the empire is in shambles!
Who can bear such a responsibility?

The eldest grandson Wuji, who has always been strong, did not appear in the Zhengshitang because he was guarding his son's spirit at home.Upon receiving the emperor's decree, Fang Xuanling, Cen Wenwen and others immediately ordered officials from the lower provinces to draft an imperial decree and submit it to the Ministry of Punishment.

Then ordered all the troops in Chang'an City to strictly deploy and control, and ordered the people to take advantage of the chaos to attack the city, and ordered the Jingzhao Mansion to be responsible for the evacuation...

A sudden crisis caused the entire city of Chang'an to be in turmoil!

It also changed the fate of many people...
