Chapter 2769: Kidnapping public opinion
The atmosphere in the hall was very solemn. There were more than 20 people in the hall, but all of them were suppressed and silent. The only sound was the rain hitting the windows outside the window and making a crackling sound.
Depressed and silent.
Anger was burning in his chest, thinking that everyone had spent a huge amount of money and food to eliminate the disaster. It seemed that the Shen family of Wu Xing had almost emptied their entire family, but in the end it was still difficult to fill the appetite of His Highness the King of Wei. This was a rip-off. There was a loud banging sound, which made everyone dizzy and bleeding all over.
But what can I do if I am angry again?
With a confession record like Shen Wei's in hand, both the Royal Navy and the Suzhou government have the right to arrest and interrogate the people involved in the record at any time and even conduct in-depth investigations into each family's properties and residences. review.
This is killing me...
As the old saying goes, the rise of aristocratic families relies on fame and knowledge at the beginning. However, it is power and wealth that have been passed down for hundreds of years to consolidate the status of the family. In the process of accumulation from generation to generation, it is inevitable to use some shameful means and strategies. It is harmless at ordinary times because everyone does it, but once it is exposed to the world, it is enough to destroy the reputation that a family cares about most. .
Not to mention breaking the law, this kind of thing is done almost every day...
When it comes time to go online, no one can escape innocence. Is it possible that in the face of accusations from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, you can still say stupid things like "Everyone is like this, why target me?"
Therefore, censorship must not be censored. For the sake of the family's glory and inheritance, it is impossible to be censored in this life or even the next life, no matter what the price.
But the problem is, His Highness the King of Wei is obviously addicted to blackmail, and the waves are endless. If he tries to satisfy him every time, when will it end?
In the end, even if everyone demolishes the house, sells it, and mortgages the young wife, it may not be able to fill the gap of His Highness the King of Wei...
Old God Xiao Jing sat on her knees, slowly sipped her tea, raised her eyelids, and asked: "Everyone, what do you think of this confession transcript?"
Someone said in an air: "Shen Wei is so shameless! This time it was his fault alone, but it caused everyone to suffer huge losses. The Wu Xing Shen family must be held responsible for this!"
"Yes, we are really sitting at home, and disaster comes from the sky, and we become suspects in the assassination case without knowing it. The Shen family cannot escape the blame!"
"Our losses should be compensated by Wu Xing and Shen."
……
The public sentiment is raging, and the target is directed at the Wu Xing and Shen families.
Shen Lun sat on his knees behind the desk, his head lowered, silent, neither refuting nor agreeing, looking as if he was following your pleasure.
As for compensation...are you kidding me?
The Wuxing Shen family has now spent most of the family wealth accumulated over hundreds of years. How can they compensate the families who have suffered losses? If compensation is really required, more than a thousand members of the Shen family will have to drink the northwest wind. By that time, the Shen family will surely fight to survive, and the first to be unlucky will be the wealthy families in Jiangdong.
In terms of status, achievements, and heritage, the Wuxing Shen family is not at the forefront among the Jiangnan noble families. But if we look at military force alone, looking at Jiangnan, there are really not many people who dare to go head-to-head with the Shen family!
Of course, Xiao Jing could not agree with everyone plundering the Shen family to make up for their own losses. He knew the Shen family's family tradition too well, which was fierce, brutal, and fearless. When they thought that their survival was in crisis, the whole family might even fall. Sometimes, they dare to do anything.
The life and death of a mere Shen family is of course not of Xiao Jing's concern, but once the Shen family goes crazy, it may cause all the Jiangnan clans to suffer.
He is nearly eighty years old today. The scene when Shen Faxing rose up and swept across Jiangnan is still vivid in his mind. At that time, half of the people in Jiangnan were killed in the flames of war...
He raised his hand to stop the noise from others, looked at Shen Lun who was bowing his head and said slowly: "The Jiangnan gentry are united in the same spirit. I will personally visit His Highness the King of Wei later on this matter, hoping to get an accommodation. If nothing else works, We must also find out the thoughts of His Highness King Wei and test his bottom line. This time the Shen family suffered a heavy blow and its foundation was damaged. When the situation stabilizes, everyone will naturally fall in love. They help each other to help the Shen family tide over the difficulties, but if the Shen family tries to destroy the peaceful and stable situation in Jiangnan, not only will the old man not agree, but all the Shen family in Jiangnan will not agree. As a member of the gentry, you must not become obsessed with it and become the enemy of all Jiangnan gentry.”
The warning in the words was very strong, but it also gave the Shen family a promise - your family is an honest family, and you are responsible for the losses you have suffered. Everyone will help you tide over the difficulties, but if you want to drag everyone into the water, Then there is no need for Fang Jun or the court to take action, all the Jiangnan clans will not let go of the Shen family!
Shen Lun then raised his head and looked at Xiao Jing, who had a solemn face and sharp eyes. He thought for a moment, nodded slowly and said, "Then I will be waiting for your good news."
Xiao Jing had a huge headache. This Shen family was really unruly and unruly at heart. It was obvious that Shen Lun had really planned to break the jar.
I am such a virtuous person. It is best if I can survive. If I cannot survive, then I will stir up trouble and bring disaster to the whole Jiangnan, and no one will be able to live a good life.
Either you all reach out your hands and give me a hand...
Shen Lun is really insidious and like a father. For the sake of his own family's survival, he would not hesitate to tie all the Jiangnan nobles to their chariots. Either you all lend a hand to fish me out, and you will be rewarded naturally, or you can Everyone dies together.
This is obviously an attempt to "kidnap public opinion"...
*****
"Come, come, let's toast to brother and sister!"
At the dinner table, Li Tai raised his glass and toasted to Princess Gaoyang in a serious manner.
"My sister is worthy of being the daughter of my Li family. She is a woman who is not inferior to men. She has the legacy of Princess Pingyang Zhao. I admire her dearly for her brother, and I feel so unbelievable!"
There was a hint of ridicule in the words, but Li Tai really admired this sister.
Princess Gaoyang has always been regarded as a special existence among the princesses of His Majesty Li Er. She lost her mother when she was young and was raised by Concubine Yang. Therefore, her brothers and sisters all lamented her life experience, feeling both sympathy and pity. Many of them take care of.
However, Princess Gaoyang has an unconventional personality and is coquettish in her behavior. She often does whatever she wants without caring about etiquette, and gets into a lot of troubles. Even the King of Shu, Li Min, who is known as the Demon King, is very scrupulous about her and dare not provoke her.
The brothers and sisters felt pity and love for him, but also kept him at a distance.
When she first married Fang Jun, everyone felt that Princess Gaoyang was not worth it. For such a beautiful, smart princess to marry a dull stick like Fang Jun, it was worse than flowers stuck in cow dung. To ruin the scenery.
Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Ke and other brothers once lamented when they were drinking in private that Fang Er must not be able to handle Gao Yang. With Gao Yang's willful character and his always looking above his head, how could he think highly of this husband? ?
Once by chance, a young handsome man with all-round talents in both civil and military affairs comes close to him, he will be able to cheat on women and cause some scandals...
However, the development of things was beyond everyone's expectations.
Fang Jun, who used to be dull and ignorant in the past, suddenly became enlightened in the days before and after getting married. Not only was he decisive in dealing with things and humane, but he was also stunningly talented in literary, military and military skills. It was an unprecedented transformation. !
Women are always like this. When a man is not as good as him, he will be disliked in every way. He will feel resentful and resentful and wish Hongxing would get out of the relationship; but when his man is good at it, he will still be devoted to his wife, and will be tolerant and loyal. Unswerving...
As a result, Princess Gaoyang changed from a problematic girl that everyone worried about to a happy existence that all sisters envied.
However, this was not enough. Who would have thought that Princess Gaoyang, who had never asked about business matters and even delegated the power of managing the family to her concubine, could actually wield a sword and act murderously when facing the mob?
In the martial arts of the Tang Dynasty, women's beauty was of course very important, but not many people appreciated the frail and sickly beauties. Instead, heroic heroines like these were more popular, able to hold up the sky and turn the tide in times of trouble. , is the highest aesthetic standard.
Noble status, beautiful appearance, and heroic spirit are simply the best qualities of a woman in this world!
When these three qualities came together, Princess Gaoyang was instantly filled with a halo, and even her own brother was heartbroken. (End of chapter)
