Chapter 256

People who have more insight into history understand the importance of public opinion.

After all, Xie Shen is also a major in Ming history, and he knows that these political bigwigs usually use the same tricks when punishing people.Among them, the most ruthless and effective method is to launch a public opinion war to make the opponent bad.

Once the reputation of the opponent is rotten, many things will be easier to handle.

For the Wang family, this is not difficult to do.Because of the reputation of Shouning Hou Zhang Heling in the court and the public, the capital is already very poor.

Under such circumstances, the Wang family only needs to spread the news a little and expose Shou Ninghou's scandal, and they will be able to win the support of public opinion.

And Shou Ninghou himself is a person who must retaliate, and he is likely to make mistakes under the pressure of public opinion.

Once Marquis Shou Ning made a mistake, the Wang family could seize the opportunity to chase after him.

It can be said that this is actually a chain plan, as long as the first step is successfully taken, the next thing will be easy to handle.

Wang Hua probably didn't know about it before, but if there is such a disturbance now, the whole city will know it, and it will be difficult for Wang Hua not to know.

This was the only thing Xie Shen was worried about.

You must know that Mr. Wang Hua is a famous direct minister. If he can't stand Wang Shouwen's behavior of distributing leaflets and fighting public opinion wars, it will be difficult to intervene.

Xie Shen had calculated thousands of times but he didn't count this point, which was really a bit of a mistake.

Fortunately, there are remedies.Mr. Wang Hua is a workaholic, so we can find a way to tie him down with work.

Xie Shen already had some calculations in his mind, so he laid down on the case beautifully to make up for it.

When Xie Shen woke up, officials at all levels in the office entered into a busy rhythm of work again.

Compilation of the "Hui Dian" is a major event that the emperor pays attention to. As the specific executive department of the Imperial Academy, it is natural to work as one and work hard under the leadership of the chief editor, Mr. Wang.
Cough cough, Xie Shen saw that his colleagues were all busy, so he got up and walked to Mr. Wang Hua's side and said, "Mr. Wang, I am extremely frightened by the kindness of the emperor to assist you in compiling the "Congress Code"."

Wang Hua put down the Chinese book in his hand and looked at Xie Shen quietly, obviously meaning "please speak human language".

Xie Shen was taken aback by Wang Hua's attention, so he said in a deep voice, "That's why I plan to live in the Imperial Academy during this period of time, so as to supervise my colleagues in compiling the "Hui Dian"."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Hua's eyes towards Xie Shen immediately softened a lot.

Throughout the dynasties, the most effective way to make the leader happy is to flatter him. Other than that, he took the initiative to work overtime to make the leader feel comfortable.

This is applicable in most situations, but it is slightly different in Wang Hua's case.

Mr. Wang has always been a model of being strict with himself and others.

Now that Xie Shen talked about this, Mr. Wang naturally didn't want to be a spectator.

Wang Hua patted Xie Shen's shoulder in relief, as if to say: Young people do a good job, a bit like an old man when he was young.

"The old man won't go back to the house these days, so he will preside over the overall situation in the office!"

As soon as Wang Hua's words came out, Xie Shen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xindao, brother Shouwen, brother, I can only help you so far.The rest is all up to you.

However, Mr. Wang had an order, and the Imperial Academy immediately came up with a plan to work in two shifts, and all officials of the Imperial Academy, big and small, had to follow this plan.

Although the officials complained a little at the beginning, when they learned that the editor-in-chief Xiu Wang Hua and the deputy editor Xie Shen wanted to live and work day and night in the Imperial Academy as role models, the complaints became the motivation for their work.
But it is said that Mr. Wang Hua and Xie Shenzhen lived in the Hanlin Academy for five days in a row.

During this period, Dr. Han Ronghan painstakingly sorted out the rooms attached to the office for the two adults to sleep in, and he himself was by the side, waiting for orders at any time.

A good doctor of the Five Classics has become a housekeeper, and Dr. Han is also very helpless.I just hope that the two adults can remember his attentive performance and help them a little bit.

On this day, Wang Hua supervised the officials of the Imperial Academy to compile the "Hui Dian" as usual, but suddenly a eunuch came to the office to call Wang Hua to receive the order.

Wang Hua naturally pushed the golden mountain and inverted the jade pillar to accept his head and bowed, doing the courtesy that a courtier should have.

The rest of the courtiers present, including Xie Shen, also knelt down to listen to the hadith.

Everyone thought that the emperor wanted to reward Mr. Wang for his hard work.

Unexpectedly, on the contrary, the emperor yelled at Wang Hua in the imperial decree, not saving face for the veteran.

Wang Hua's complexion was livid, but he had no choice but to thank the emperor for his kindness.

After receiving the imperial decree, Wang Hua only felt dizzy for a while, if it wasn't for Xie Shen's quick eyesight and hands, he would have fallen down.

The eunuch didn't dare to delay after delivering the decree, and hurriedly said to Wang Hua: "My lord, the emperor ordered you to meet him immediately after receiving the decree."

Xie Shen was somewhat puzzled, why did the good-natured emperor scold Wang Hua?
One must know that Emperor Hongzhi was notoriously good-tempered among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and if he could be provoked to jump and scold him regardless of the majesty of the emperor, then Wang Hua might really be in trouble.

But Wang Hua was neither greedy for money nor lustful, and devoted himself to his work. He lived in the Imperial Academy in order to compile the "Hui Dian", so how could he have time to make trouble for the emperor.

Could it be
Xie Shen had an ominous premonition that this incident might still have something to do with Marquis Shouning.

In fact, this possibility is not impossible.

Now that Wang Shouwen is distributing leaflets denouncing Shou Ninghou all over the city, the matter will be known by the emperor sooner or later.

It is conceivable that public and official anger, which had been suppressed all the time, erupted in an instant, and the memorial to the impeachment of Marquis Shouning would surely fly to the palace like snowflakes.

Anyway, Marquis Shouning is also a relative of the state, the younger brother of Empress Zhang, the empress of the current imperial court, even if Emperor Hongzhi is strict in governing the country, he can't be cruel to this one.

Coupled with the fact that Empress Zhang cried, made trouble and hanged herself three times, I am afraid that even if Emperor Hongzhi's hardened heart had hardened, he would have to soften.

Naturally, the Son of Heaven would not think that Wang Shouwen was playing tricks, but would blame Wang Hua instead.

After all, this kind of skill is only made by Wang Hua's age and experience.

The reason why the emperor was angry was probably because he thought that Wang Hua had failed the holy grace and was ignorant!
Didn't the Marquis of Shouning just enclose a few pieces of land and beat up your tenant farmers and servants, so that he couldn't let him go?
It also caused a lot of trouble in the city, as if he had been wronged by the sky, afraid that the "evil deeds" of Hou Ninghou's "evil deeds" would not be known to the people in the capital?
This would put Emperor Hongzhi in a dilemma, with the empress and Marquis Shouning on the one hand, and the officials in the court on the other.

No matter how good-tempered a person is, he can't bear such suffering. The emperor probably couldn't stand the cumbersome memorials of the impeachment of Marquis Shou Ning and the spitting stars splashed by the officials, so he decreed that Wang Hua, the "instigator" of this incident, be severely punished. Swear at him severely, and then pull him to the front and talk about your ideals in life.
