Transmigrating to Great Qin, Zhao Qingrui found herself with land and money at home, and a cheat system. To avoid becoming cannon fodder in chaotic times, she brought her father to recruit soldiers...
Zhao Qingrui calmly watched the uproar these books caused outside, and asked someone to guide public opinion to try to prevent any remarks that would cause unrest in the country.
Of course, many officials at the court meeting were still not very reassured. They did not expect that the way His Majesty would dispel the rumors was to release so many books again.
Although these books are of great value, they are just storybooks after all. What will happen if people only read them and stop producing?
Zhao Qingrui listened to these people's advice, but did not pay much attention to it. The Qin Dynasty should have more entertainment projects now. How could people work all the time? They should stop and rest and enjoy the scenery on the road of life.
A few days later, Li Si, Feng Quji and Meng Yi arrived at the Zhangtai Palace together.
"Why are you here? Did something important happen?" Zhao Qingrui quickly sat up and asked.
These people are all important officials in the court, and Zhao Qingrui trusts them very much.
"Your Majesty, do you know what the outside world is saying about you?" Meng Yi stood up and asked seriously.
"Oh? What rumors are there again?" Zhao Qingrui asked in confusion. There were a lot of trivial matters in the court these days, and she had no time to pay attention to the news outside.
"People outside are saying that Your Majesty is arbitrary and doesn't listen to the advice of the censors. You allow all kinds of story books to spread, making the people read these story books all day long and even neglecting their own duties of farming." Meng Yi was more serious than ever.
Since Your Majesty came to power, you have always done a good job, and the outside world has basically praised Your Majesty in various ways.
In this incident, all kinds of remarks unfavorable to Your Majesty emerged one after another, as if Your Majesty was the sinner who brought disaster to the entire Qin Dynasty.
"Tsk tsk, you make me sound like a sinner of the Qin Dynasty. I didn't know that there are so many people in the Qin Dynasty who are dissatisfied with me." Zhao Qingrui sneered.
"Your Majesty, you must not allow these remarks to continue, otherwise it will be detrimental to Your Majesty." Li Si said seriously. If he were to say so, all those who spread these rumors should be arrested.
"That's right, Your Majesty, you must not encourage unhealthy tendencies." Feng Quji also advised seriously.
Today's Majesty is still very obedient and treats officials very well. They feel it is their fortune to assist such a king.
Therefore, they do not want His Majesty to bear a stigma.
"Do you have any good ideas?" Zhao Qingrui asked gently. She was not angry. Those who wanted to use public opinion to deal with her were sorry, but they were really wrong.
If it were just these remarks, she could forgive those people's rudeness, after all, it was she who proposed freedom of speech.
Of course, if someone wants to stir up trouble by taking advantage of public opinion, then don't blame her Ding Qin Sword for being so sharp.
"Your Majesty, those who spread false statements should be arrested and investigated thoroughly. Although Your Majesty has stated freedom of speech, you have also stipulated that it is not allowed to fabricate rumors and guide public opinion." Meng Yi said seriously.
He has watched His Majesty grow up since he was a child. His Majesty has done so many things for the entire Qin Dynasty. It's just a few storybooks. How can those people throw dirty water on His Majesty? Those people deserve to die.
"Don't be reckless. Wouldn't doing so mean that Your Majesty is guilty? No remarks that are unfavorable to Your Majesty are allowed to appear." Feng Quji quickly stopped Meng Yi's dangerous idea.
"Then what does Lord Feng think?" Meng Yi looked at Feng Quji unwillingly. He knew that what Feng Quji said was right. If he really did that, he would be putting the final nail in the coffin on those remarks and would be harming His Majesty.
"If you want to let these public opinions pass, the best way is to create a bigger public opinion." Feng Quji touched his beard. Over the past year, he has been working hard to improve himself and no longer stand still. These are also what he learned from Zhao Wen.
Zhao Qingrui looked at Feng Quji with great interest, "Mr. Feng, please tell me in detail."
Feng Quji has changed a lot. Although he is still steady, his style of doing things has become increasingly sharp.
Although she doesn't like extremes, she still advocates ideological progress and not being complacent.
Zhao Qingrui was very satisfied that Feng Quji could accept such ideas and even took the initiative to change himself.
"Your Majesty, it's time for you to get married. The country cannot be without an heir for a day." Feng Quji looked at Zhao Qingrui with a smile.
The corner of Zhao Qingrui's mouth twitched. "Is this your idea? This is a completely bad idea, isn't it?"
Don’t even think about getting married. Being single is so much fun.
"Ahem, Mr. Feng, I'm still young." Zhao Qingrui said helplessly.
It is indeed possible to use marriage to divert everyone's attention, but Zhao Qingrui feels that it is unnecessary. It is too unprofitable to sacrifice the rest of your life for such a small matter.
"Your Majesty is no longer a child. It's a good opportunity to take advantage of the excitement of this incident. No one will forget to mention it again." Feng Quji said seriously.
"Your Majesty, Lord Feng is right. It is indeed time for you to get married." Meng Yi thought Feng Quji's idea was very good, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Although Your Majesty is still young, you also have to consider the next generation of the Qin Dynasty. It is imperative to marry an emperor.
"Forget about getting married. I don't want to do that for the time being. Since I want to divert everyone's attention, this matter is not necessary. I will ask Dun Ruo to collect negative information about those people who spread rumors and publicize it in the newspaper." Zhao Qingrui said calmly.
"Your Majesty, why are you unwilling to consider marriage? Your marriage is not just your own business, but also the business of the entire Qin Dynasty. My Qin Dynasty needs an heir." Li Si said uncomfortably. His Majesty's ideas were too advanced, and he still found it a little hard to accept.
