Chapter 1177 Liu Jie’s plan
Compared with hatred and future, which one is more important?
This is a difficult choice. The benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom. No matter which choice you make, it has its own reasons.
So, compared with hatred or eternal glory, which one is more important?
This is a much easier choice, and most people will choose the latter.
Seventy years of life are rare in ancient times. When the life span is over, life will return to the netherworld, dust will return to dust and dust will return to earth. All hatred, friendship and interests will be dispersed with the wind, disappearing in the vast years without leaving any trace.
Decades from now, who will still remember who had an undying hatred with whom?
But if you can let your name still spread in the world after death, and let future generations remember it with a "great and upright" image, then that is the lofty goal that a person should pursue throughout his life!
Liu Jie plans to do this now!
Is Fang Jun really wronged? Is he the murderer of Changsun Dan?
In Liu Ji's view, these are completely unimportant!
This song "Green Pine" can establish Fang Jun's upright and majestic image! In the Tang Dynasty, an era when literati and poets admired poetry like crazy, as long as this poem existed, even if Fang Jun could not escape the blame in the end, many people believed that he was just a victim in the struggle between imperial power and the clan.
Fang Jun's future may be tragic, but it is definitely positive!
Words are born from the heart, and poems are written from the heart!
Just imagine, how could someone who could write such a humiliating and upright poem be a cruel and evil murderer?
When the background of this poem is what Fang Jun is experiencing now, it will surely become a popular story spread all over the world and be passed down to future generations! This is a story about a loyal minister who was wronged, and it is the most popular version among the people!
If I can play the role of a censor who is not afraid of power, upright and upright, and is willing to sacrifice his official life to clear away the grievances of loyal ministers, after all, this story will be sung by people all over the world!
Compared with this, what is the little hatred with Fang Jun?
The more Liu Jie thought about it, the more excited he became. With brisk steps, he rushed all the way back to the censor's platform, summoned all his close censors, and secretly studied how to put his ideas into practice and how to make every move perfect...

*****
How to operate the poem "Green Pine" so that you can benefit from it and maximize your profits requires careful preparation, but the most important thing is to spread the poem as quickly as possible.
If this poem cannot be known to the world, if Fang Jun's "injustice" cannot shock the world, how can Liu Ji benefit from it?
Immediately, Liu Ji sent the rubbing version of this poem to Jingzhao Mansion...
Even if Fang Jun is not here, Fang Jun and his family are still in charge in Jingzhao Mansion. People like Shaoyin Dugucheng and others, taking advantage of Fang Jun's power, followed the rules and did not dare to make the slightest mistake even when Fang Jun was in jail.
It's easy to be arrogant at this time, but once Fang Jun comes back completely, who dares to face his anger?
Du Chuke was entrusted by Fang Jun and was leading Wang Xuance, Li Yifu and others to prepare for a major event. He hoped that once the matter was launched, it would shake up the court and divert people's attention. When Liu Ji came to the door, Du Chuke was also in a daze.
When Liu Ji expressed his thoughts, Du Chuke became more and more confused...
Didn’t this person have a long-standing feud with Fang Jun?
Why did he take the wrong medicine and start running to appeal for Fang Jun?
However, Du Chuke was mature and prudent after all. After thinking about it for a moment, he immediately ordered the new issue of "Zhenguan Weekly" to publish this poem. No matter what Liu Jie's plan was, it would be good for Fang Jun anyway, so why not Why?
It's simply a poem, without any narration and without any encouragement.
The circulation of "Zhenguan Weekly" is getting larger and larger, and its audience is getting wider and wider. It is sold in almost all large and prosperous cities in the Tang Dynasty. And Fang Jun's fame is now even more well-known to every household, especially his "achievement" in poetry has already reached its peak. Even though those literary giants express sour disdain, it does not prevent him from being popular among the people.
As the place where "Zhenguan Weekly" was launched, this upright and majestic "Green Pine" was praised in the streets and alleys of Chang'an almost overnight...
The stories that the common people like to read the most are those loyal ministers who were first wronged and then avenged their humiliation, and righteous men and women who were brave and courageous and gratified. As the "Buddha in every family" in the eyes of the audience, Fang Erlang is a perfect representative of loyal ministers!
What is a minister who can attack wealthy families and protect ordinary people but a loyal minister?
What is a minister who dares to interrogate a wealthy family like the Yuan family and seek justice for dozens of innocent girls who were massacred but not a loyal minister?
Being able to fight the Turkic wolf cavalry in bloody battles in the Western Regions, put down the Shanyue rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River, and show off one's power overseas to expand territories in foreign lands. What is he but a loyal minister?
How could such a loyal minister be a murderer?
Fang Erlang's hands were stained with blood and held countless lives, but which life was not from a foreigner?
Besides, the eldest son Dan wanted to use the imperial staff to murder Fang Erlang first...
Wouldn't it be a good thing for such an immoral and cruel person to die?
Early the next morning, Chang'an was shaken!
Countless people from inside Chang'an City, outside the city, and from counties in Guanzhong spontaneously gathered in front of the Xingbu Yamen. The streets in front of the Xingbu Yamen were crowded and packed with people!
However, the people showed great restraint and did not act excessively despite their chattering.
Nowadays, the Holy King is in charge of the government, and virtuous ministers are assisting the government. It's just that occasionally one or two traitors harm the loyal and good, and His Majesty is deceived. Everyone is gathered here just to attract His Majesty's attention and personally interrogate Fang Erlang's case, so that loyal ministers will not be wronged and traitors will succeed!
But with everyone in the court, who dares to ignore it?
The imperial guards of Suwei Palace City were afraid that the people would attack the palace, and were in full armor. The patrols of Wuhou and Jingzhao Mansion on the left and right were all dispatched to maintain order. The guards' camps strictly controlled the entry and exit of soldiers, and Chang'an City was under martial law!
Chang'an was shocked, and the ruling and opposition parties were shocked!
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 bandits are wreaking havoc and the Qing Dynasty is in trouble; it’s not that the ministers are scheming to rebel, causing trouble for the Xiaoqiang; it’s not that foreign enemies invade the border, and a war is about to break out...
But the people's hearts are not there, and the people's resentment is boiling!
No one sees the power of people's hearts more clearly than His Majesty Li Er!
Mencius said: "The king is a boat; the common man is water. The water carries the boat, and the water overturns it. If the king thinks of danger by this, will the danger never come?"
His Majesty Li Er even recalled a sentence from Wei Zheng's original "Ten Thoughts": "It's not the great resentment, but the people who should be feared; it is advisable to be cautious when carrying a boat and overturning it."
He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world!
How could a mere lawsuit by Fang Jun influence so many unrelated people to rally around the capital and gather in the capital?
It's nothing more than what the Ministry of Punishment did that caused public outrage.
But even so, His Majesty Li Er still felt the power from those ordinary people who were unarmed and of low status! These seemingly lowly "ant people" were the foundation of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty! Isn't the reason why I am obsessed with attacking the noble families and supporting the poor people just to win over the ordinary people who make up the vast majority of the world, so that I can get more powerful help and get rid of the threat of the noble families?
His Majesty Li Er took a deep breath and ordered the servants on his left and right: "Immediately go to the Political Affairs Hall to inform all the ministers and ministers and ask them to draft an order for me to stop the Ministry of Punishment from hearing Fang Jun's case alone. The Ministry of Punishment, Yushitai, and Dali Temple will Judge Secretary!”
"No!"
The chamberlain rushed to the political hall and conveyed the emperor's decree to the ministers.
The prime ministers and counselors in the political hall were confused by the siege of the Ministry of Justice's Yamen. They were debating whether to adopt a gentle strategy to take strict precautions and gradually evacuate, or to use force to disperse directly...< br>
Broadly speaking, most people agree with the former.
Even those children of aristocratic families who have never taken the "ant people" seriously at this moment cannot help but be shocked by the power displayed by the gathering of these ant people. Think about it not long ago when a group of angry people stormed the mansion and burned it to the ground. Who dares to use force to disperse the Daodefang Yuan family?
Once these people are angered, it will be a disaster sweeping Guanzhong...
The capital is in turmoil and the empire is in turmoil!
Who can bear such responsibility?
Changsun Wuji, who has always been strong, did not appear in the political hall because he was keeping vigil for his son at home. Upon receiving the emperor's decree, Fang Xuanling, Cen Wenwen and others immediately ordered provincial officials to draft an imperial edict and submit it to the Ministry of Punishment.
Then he ordered all the troops in Chang'an City to strictly control the city, arranged for the people to take advantage of the chaos to attack Fang 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 panic!
It also changed the fate of many people...(End of Chapter)
