Preemptive.

Walk to the front desk.

On the eve of this crisis, Guo Dan put forward these two suggestions, which made both Empress Dowager Li and Wanli suspicious.

This is because when it comes to public opinion about the royal family, the royal family is usually very conservative, and it can even be said that it is blindly passively beaten.

The mouthpiece of the royal family is actually those ministers, and when the ministers are all opposed, then the only way for the royal family to persuade the ministers by coercion and inducement has no second choice.

Therefore, in the past, Empress Dowager Li also had a traditional practice, first to wait and see what the ministers thought, and then to maneuver from it.

But Guo Dan wanted to strike first and take the initiative.

But compared to the second point, this first point is quite reasonable, because if they don't talk about it, they can't cover it.

This second point, coming to the forefront, is even more difficult for their mother and son to accept.

They felt that this was against the royal demeanor, as the emperor and the queen mother, how could they come forward to argue with those in person, and the argument was still their own family matter.

Wanli asked, "Do you want to use the press to do this?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Guo Dan nodded and said, "We only have newspapers and periodicals in our hands." ”

Empress Dowager Li said: "But not all ministers will believe this kind of rumor, you take the initiative to attack, it may cause more ministers to be dissatisfied." ”

Guo Dan said: "Queen Mother, it is undeniable that this is indeed possible, everything is risky, and there is no certainty of victory in a humble position." ”

Empress Dowager Li still seemed very hesitant, and she asked Wanli, "Emperor, what do you think?" ”

Wanli thought for a while and said, "Just let the queen mother decide this matter, and the sons and daughters will all listen to the queen mother." ”

Empress Dowager Li pondered for a while, and said: "I don't approve of this, I can't let the entire imperial family be involved in this whirlpool for the sake of Yongning, especially this will affect the majesty of the emperor, how can the dignified son of heaven publish articles in newspapers and periodicals to avenge his sister's grievances, and the old body would rather ......." ”

Although she didn't finish her words, her kind eyes suddenly became fierce.

In fact, what she meant was that compared to it, she would rather the emperor use a butcher's knife to solve the problem.

She was right.

As the emperor, he was forced to avenge his sister, where is the prestige of this day?

Imperial power always comes first.

You can't trade the imperial power for anything.

Guo Dan said: "It's a poor consideration of the humble position, and I hope the Queen Mother will forgive the humble position." ”

At this time, Zhu Yihua suddenly said: "Queen Mother, since it is inconvenient for the emperor's brother to come forward, let the sons come." ”

"You? (Prince)"

Empress Dowager Li, Wanli, and Guo Dan made surprised voices at the same time.

"Am I not going to do it?"

Zhu Yihua said: "I have always felt aggrieved for my sister, and I have long wanted to discuss with them, and if they really spread rumors and slander my sister outside, then I will not let them go." ”

Empress Dowager Li and Wanli glanced at each other.

Then he looked at Guo Dan at the same time, as if asking, is he okay?

Although Zhu Yihua is also a member of the royal family, because he is only a vassal king, he has no power, and he acts outside all day long, and it is common for him to quarrel and fight with others.

Let him shout a few words, but it will not affect the royal family, and everyone is used to this arrogant and domineering prince.

But the question is, can he?

Guo Dan glanced at Zhu Yihua, thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Queen Mother, Your Majesty, I think that the prince is simply the best candidate." ”

Empress Dowager Li asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Guo Dan said: "The Empress Dowager Shicai is right, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, if you personally come forward to write an article for the princess, although it can increase the authenticity, but it is not reasonable to be reasonable, the prince is different, the prince is a man of temperament, and he is unhappy for the princess, which is reasonable." ”

Zhu Yihua said excitedly: "Then this king is here." ”

Wanli asked again: "Guo Dan, is this really possible?" ”

It seems to be pointed.

King Lu's character is not good, and he has no reputation, he published an article, will it be self-defeating.

Zhu Yihua said depressedly: "Doesn't the emperor's brother believe in his courtiers? ”

Wanli hurriedly said: "Of course not, I'm just afraid that you will be wronged!" ”

Zhu Yihua patted his chest and said: "The younger brother is the queen mother, the emperor's brother, and it doesn't matter if he suffers a little grievance for his sister." ”

Empress Dowager Li shook her head with a smile, and asked Guo Dan again, "How are you going to write?" ”

Although she loves Zhu Yihua very much, she thinks that even if Zhu Yihua yells a few words, it will not hurt, and the royal family can advance and retreat freely.

Guo Dan hesitated: "Back to the Queen Mother, this matter has to be thought about carefully, but the point is to complain about the princess, so as to arouse everyone's sympathy for the princess." ”

He is not a god, he can do anything, he doesn't have any wonderful writing, his writing is diametrically opposed to his people, a shallow mess, he only knows which direction to go, but how to write, you need a professional like Aunt Xu.

Empress Dowager Li said again: "But will this affect the princess?" ”

Guo Dan hesitated again, and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, I don't dare to guarantee this humble position, after all, this will definitely push the princess to the cusp, but... However, the humble position believes that blindly avoiding this matter will not have a good effect. ”

In the past, even the royal family chose to cover up and avoid, and they never faced it head-on, and when they liquidated Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, they didn't mention half a sentence about the princess.

But the result was that the princess committed suicide by throwing herself into the river.

Empress Dowager Li hesitated again and again, but finally nodded and agreed.

If the other party is coming for the royal family, she can still maneuver around, but the problem is that the other party is going to Guo Dan, and she also expects that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will not let go of this opportunity, and Princess Yongning is just a scapegoat.

Without further ado, Guo Dan and Zhu Yi had to rush to the five guns immediately, because there was not much time left for them.

......

"Faint! Faint! ”

As soon as he came out of the Pure Heart Temple, he saw Xu Jirong and Guan Xiaojie running towards him, and Zhu Lizhi was standing alone.

"Faint, are you okay, my brother didn't kill you."

Xu Jirong said with a concerned face.

Guo Danzhen didn't know how to answer Xu Jirong's idiot's question.

Zhu Yihua was angry and said with a smile: "I'll kill it later." ”

Xu Jirong hurriedly said: "Brother, don't believe those rumors, you said lightly cheating money, I believe this, but if you want to say that he bullied the princess, I don't believe it, but I am very afraid of his wife." ”

Oh, my God! Even he knows! Guo Dan knocked on his forehead and strangled Xu Jirong's neck, "Don't be verbose, let's go quickly." ”

"Oops! Tell me where to go first? ”

"Go and find justice."

Out of the Royal Horse Farm.

finally met Yang Feixu, who haunted him.

"Feixi, although I don't want you to leave me for even a moment now, I really need to find Aunt Xu immediately, and then ask her to go to the headquarters of the five guns."

"If you talk less nonsense, maybe you'll be able to make more money."

Throwing down these words, Yang Feixu got on his horse and galloped in the direction of the capital.

Guo Dan, Zhu Yihua, Xu Jirong, and Zhu Lizhi also hurried to the city.

Guan Xiaojie?

He was too fat and it was difficult to ride a horse.

If you take a carriage, it will take at least a day to get back to the city, but if you ride a horse, it will only take half an hour.

By the time they felt the Gojo headquarters, it was already the fourth watch.

When I entered the hospital, I happened to see Aunt Xu and Yang Feixu standing in the hall, and Xu Jirong and Zhu Yihua stepped forward at the same time.

One is excitement and the other is obsession!

"Auntie!"

"Sister Xu, long time no see."

.....

Sister Xu?

Xu Jirong suddenly became frantic and pushed Zhu Yihua suddenly.

"Oops!"

Zhu Yihua, who was bent on Aunt Xu, was not careful, and was pushed to the ground by Xu Jirong.

"Brother, what do you mean, my name is aunt, and you call me sister."

Xu Jirong shook his fist and roared.

Zhu Yihua was trembling and crazy Xu Jirong, he was also very scared, and hurriedly explained: "Brother Rong, my brother doesn't mean anything else, isn't it used to be used to it." ”

"You used to be called Auntie, too."

"Yes, yes, it's called Auntie, it's called Auntie."

Facing the fierce and vicious Xu Jirong, Zhu Yihua is protecting his face with both hands, only if he is.

"The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits."

Suddenly, such a sentence floated away.

Xu Jirong and Zhu Yihua looked at the same time, only to see Zhu Lizhi, who had just come in at the end, drifting past their eyes like a white mist, leaving a green "long shadow" on the ground.

"Sister Xu... No, what about Aunt Xu? ”

Zhu Yihua suddenly jumped up, looked left and right, and sighed, "Oh no! Guo Dan is also gone. ”

Xu Jirong said: "It's all your fault, I haven't even wanted to say hello to my aunt!" ”

Zhu Yihua was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Brother Rong, my brother just shouted Sister Xu, you want to beat me, and now Guo Dan has abducted your aunt, you also blame me?" ”

Xu Jirong snorted: "That's because I believe in being indifferent, I don't believe in my brother." ”

"Why?"

Zhu Yihua said excitedly.

"Because Princess Yongning is crying." Zhu Lizhi's fluttering voice came from the hall.

Zhu Yihua blinked, and suddenly embarrassedly found a gap to get into.

Just when they were arguing, Guo Dan, Aunt Xu and Yang Feixu had already entered the back room.

Guo Dan quickly told Aunt Xu what had happened.

"If something like this happens, once it happens, it's really a blessing and a curse."

Aunt Xu listened to this, and immediately shook her head, she understands this kind of thing too well, she has been slandered and abused by many people so far, although there are some people who respect her very much, but in the eyes of many scholars, she is the kind of woman who does not know shame, and she is tired of even scolding her.

The key scolding is useless, Aunt Xu still does her own thing and doesn't talk back.

She can not care, but the royal cannot care.

Aunt Xu suddenly changed her words, and said: "But you don't seem to have any other choice, if you don't strike first, then you will definitely lose, and they will never let you go." ”

Guo Dan nodded and said, "I think so too." ”

Aunt Xu frowned slightly and said, "But it is not a wise move for you to choose King Lu, after all, King Lu's reputation has always been bad." ”

"But the tiger poison does not eat children, it is the arrogance and domineering of King Lu on weekdays, and he suddenly becomes gentle and sensual, but he can touch the heartstrings of others more, if King Lu is a sheep, even if he cries, he will not give people a deep impression."

"But King Lu's words will not be convincing."

"I'm not trying to convince them."

"And what do you want?"

"Blur and expand the whole thing, let us discuss this matter from a higher perspective, instead of arguing about whether I bullied Princess Yongning or not."

Guo Dan shrugged and said.

As a businessman, of course, he knows how to manipulate speech, but unlike a sect, a businessman wants everyone to believe in his beliefs, and a businessman never tries to convince everyone to believe in himself, because it is impossible.

They will only direct their rhetoric in their favor, whether it is heaven or hell.

Aunt Xu nodded slightly.

Guo Dan said: "Now we have to think of a very eye-catching title to attract everyone's attention, in order to be the first to catch people's attention." Oh, I have to say it in the tone of King Lu. ”

Aunt Xu thought for a while and said, "It's better to call it 'I hate Feng Bao!'" I hate Zhang Juzheng! ’。 ”
