Feng Aotian is the protagonist? Take it!

Zhang Liang's plan was to portray the Duke of Longtao as great, and obviously, the goal of this plan was achieved from the very beginning.

But the people's reaction was beyond Zhang Liang's expectations.

The people of the royal capital are well aware of the power of the empire, and Bai Huo is in charge here.

The overwhelming military force has made the people lose their courage. They dare not speak out their anger and can only pretend not to see it.

Faced with such reactions from the public, Xi Lan asked questions tactfully.

The general meaning of the question is: "If you were a subject of a dukedom and the two sides were at war, what would you do?"

As a result, the people responded decisively: "Surrender."

This surprised Xi Lan a little, which means that they chose to surrender before the war started.

Human instinct is to survive, and the people’s answer is very rational and correct.

Xi Lan and Yun Yun believed that the public’s reaction was where Zhang Liang had missed a trick.

If you want to better protect the Dukedom, you must increase the size of the rebel army so that the emperor has no way to take action.

In other words, it is necessary to get as many people in the royal capital as possible to join the rebel camp.

Faced with hundreds of thousands of people, even the most foolish and cruel king would not order a massacre.

Even if he was really crazy enough to order a massacre, the generals and soldiers who were to carry out the order would not agree.

You have to know that those generals and soldiers all came from small families, and among the people are their close friends, family members, and lovers.

As long as the emperor dares to give the order, the empire will inevitably usher in a change of dynasty.

Those who lose the hearts of the people lose the world.

Speaking of the word "people's hearts", Xi Lan suddenly thought of a sentence Zhang Liang had said before.

"As long as we publicize the greatness of Duke Longtao in the capital, the people will be on our side."

As long as you read it, you will find that spreading rumors is only one of Zhang Liang's plans! His ultimate goal is to win the hearts of the people!

Thinking of this, Xi Lan suddenly realized:

"Yun Yun, did we make a mistake?"

"What?"

"It's not that Zhang Liang's plan went wrong, but that his plan entered the next stage ahead of schedule?"

"Is there a next stage?"

Afterwards, Xi Lan saw that Yun Yun didn’t quite understand, so she explained.

"In other words, this stage is about spreading rumors, and the next stage is about winning the hearts and minds of the people."

"Since there are two stages, why doesn't Zhang Liang say it all at once?"

"He must have predicted the current situation, so he set a node here. He wanted to get feedback from the public before planning the next stage."

After hearing Xi Lan's words, Yun Yun thought for a moment and replied, "That makes sense."

"Then let's go find Zhang Liang after dinner?"

Yun Yun’s question made Xi Lan fall into deep thought.

Xi Lan basically determined that the next stage was to win the hearts of the people and allow them to join the rebel army smoothly.

Then how to get the people to join the rebel army becomes a big problem.

In order to solve this problem, Xi Lan decided to obtain some more information.

Just then, the shop owner brought two bowls of fried noodles.

"This is spicy, this is sweet. Little girl, I've been cooking noodles for thirty years, but this is the first time I've cooked sweet noodles. Try it and see if it suits your taste."

Hearing the boss's words, Yun Yun opened her chopsticks, took a bite and praised: "Well, it's not bad."

"Haha, that's fine." the boss said with a smile.

Perhaps because the boss was easy to talk to, Xi Lan packaged the problem and chatted with the boss for a few words.

It's something like, "If the Empire insists on attacking and you can't escape, what will you do?"

However, the boss's answer surprised Xi Lan a little.

The people at the neighboring table who happened to hear the conversation also agreed with the boss's answer.

Generally speaking, when faced with war, the first thing people consider is how to prevent the other side from killing them, rather than taking up arms to resist.

Why is this happening?

The people of the royal capital and the people of the duchy have completely different views on this.

What is going wrong?

While eating fried noodles, Xilan kept thinking about this question.

In order to help Zhang Liang, she was very focused. She loved analyzing food and didn't even pay attention to the taste of the fried noodles.

After eating the fried noodles, Xilan and Yunyun left the snack street.

They might have to discuss some issues next, and these topics couldn't be heard by outsiders, so they found a clean alley.

During this process, Xi Lan finally figured out the key to the problem.

The people of the royal capital lack a "backbone", the so-called leader.

Afterwards, Xi Lan told Yun Yun about her thoughts.

"Now we have to ask Zhang Liang to step in again."

After hearing Yun Yun's answer, Xi Lan's eyes dimmed a little.

Zhang Liang is now too busy to handle everything. If everything depends on Zhang Liang, he will be under too much pressure.

Having received so much help from Zhang Liang before, Xi Lan really wanted to share more of the burden with Zhang Liang.

So, she discussed with Yun Yun: "Can we help with this matter?"

Yun Yun felt very relieved to see the young lady taking the initiative to consider Zhang Liang.

The young lady's competitors are all very strong. Yun Yun decided that this time, no matter what, she must ask the young lady for help, let her shine, and bring her and Zhang Liang closer.

"Let me think about it."

10 minute...

20 minute...

60 minute...

During this process, Xi Lan was also thinking about ways to help Zhang Liang.

Since she did not have much experience, her mind was completely blank and she had no idea at all.

Seeing Yun Yun’s frown getting deeper and deeper, Xi Lan felt complicated.

I clearly wanted to help, but in the end I still had to rely on Yun Yun to find a solution.

Just when Xi Lan felt that she was useless, Yun Yun clapped her hands and said happily:

"Got it! We can warm up Zhang Liang in advance."

"Warming up?"

Xi Lan had never heard of this word. She tilted her head, looking a little confused.

This word does not exist in this world, but is often and widely used in Zhang Liang and Lingling's world.

Generally speaking, before launching a game, game manufacturers will promote their products and release trailers.

This operation can attract a group of people to pre-order the game in advance.

After all these operations, the game will have extremely high popularity and topicality on the day it is officially launched.

Yun Yun happened to have such a memory, so she knew how to do it.

"That's right." Yun Yun raised a finger and said excitedly: "Anyway, as long as Zhang Liang shows up, even without him doing anything, there will be many people following him to support him and trust him, like this."

"Is this possible?" Xi Lan was a little surprised.

"Yes!" Yun Yun assured, putting her hands on her hips: "I am very familiar with this operation, and you, Miss, just happen to have the conditions."

Xi Lan was confused by Yun Yun's words.

Afterwards, Yun Yun explained it to Xi Lan in detail.

A quarter of an hour later.

"You want me to pretend to be a god!? Isn't this a lie?"

After listening to Yun Yun's words, Xi Lan was sure that the plan would work, but she seemed a little resistant from a moral point of view.

"It's a white lie! A white lie!"

Compared with Yun Yun, Xi Lan, who had just entered society, was still too naive, so she emphasized the word "goodwill".

"Okay, I'll have to practice."

Seeing Xi Lan's eyes become determined, Yun Yun nodded with satisfaction.

"However, to achieve the effect I expect, I must find a way to gather the people together before that."

Since we want to promote and build momentum, it is necessary to gather people together, and the gimmick to gather people together is...

This question troubled Yun Yun again and she fell into deep thought.

However···

This time she thought quickly and got the answer immediately: "I am now in the imperial domain and have an aura. I just need to show my strength to increase my popularity and then be mysterious for a while."

Ordinary people certainly cannot bring everyone together, which means there is no highlight or gimmick.

If it is a mysterious and powerful fox tribe, then perhaps it will arouse people's interest.

Just make up a story.

Yun Yun is still good.

"Now there is a new problem, how to increase visibility..."

After a few rounds of thinking, Yun Yun's brain capacity was obviously not enough, and she complained: "It would be great if we could catch that wanted criminal."

Seeing Yun Yun circling his temple with his index finger, Xi Lan laughed and said, "That's too difficult. If you want to catch him, he'll have to fall from the sky."

Just as he finished speaking, an unidentified object suddenly flew over, hit the wall with a "bang", and fell to the ground with a "puff", motionless.

When they realized it was a person, Xi Lan and Yun Yun hurried over.

Seeing that the man's face was already torn apart, they subconsciously took a breath of cold air.

However···

They had only taken half a breath when they suddenly realized something was wrong.

That skin seemed to be a camouflage mask often used in disguise.

After peeling off the mask, Xi Lan and Yun Yun were stunned by the man's true appearance.

"Miss... has your mouth been blessed?"

"Ah, this..."

## Chapter 455: Holy Dew Freedom

Inside the presidential suite of a hotel.

Xi Lan put her coat on the sofa and let down her white ponytail. Then she turned on all the lights in the house and closed the curtains.

In order to play the role of the god well, she specially opened a guest room for rehearsal.

She didn't want to be discovered by others during the rehearsal, so the hotel she chose was quite luxurious.

Not only is the security here complete, but it can also protect the privacy of guests very well, and most importantly, the room is very large.

The space for Xilan to rehearse alone is a full 100 square meters.

of course.

After all, it is a presidential suite, so the price must be expensive.
