Fang Yuan was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled knowingly and said nothing.
As time goes by, the relationship between Fang Yuan and Ruan Qi becomes closer and closer. This is because they have similar personalities and there are also external interests to consider.
…
Gu Xing stood on the city wall, watching this public trial. No, this was not a public trial, it was an obvious public opinion attack against the Gu family!
This is a farce and not the truth he wants at all!
The people only get a partial truth.
But now, he couldn't do anything. He needed to proceed as planned.
"Captain, now, is this really okay?"
Is it really okay to ruin the Gu family's reputation like this?
Gu Xing calmly shook his head and said, "It's okay, everything is going according to plan! Although public opinion is important, strength is even more important! Later, after the Gu family is restored, we can naturally spend time to regain the lost public support!"
The people’s will is important, and it is indeed important. But if you say it is not important, that’s just the way it is!
If it really doesn't work, just give up some benefits and win back the people's hearts. It's not that difficult!
The team members nodded!
He only knew part of the plan this time, so he didn't have much confidence in winning.
However, since the captain is so confident, I think there will be no problem at all.
He still knew the captain.
I am a very old-fashioned and cautious person and I won't joke with your lives.
Since he said that his trump card is very powerful, he can solve all the variables raised by his teammates.
I shouldn't fail this time, right?
He believed in Gu's foundation and Gu Xing's trump card!
…
Although the public trial is mainly aimed at exposing the negative information about the Gu family, the overall process is still a case trial.
Soon, the trial reached the middle stage and began to expose the murderer who directly killed Gu Qing, Gu Yan's father, the previous legitimate heir!
What kind of impact is this!
Afterwards, Gu Yan came to power, which was a blatant conspiracy to usurp the throne!
Look how logical this is!
Gu Yan's father was obviously the legitimate heir, but he was replaced by the even more talented Gu Qing. Gu Yan's father was not convinced, and it took him two years to kill Gu Qing with one strike, and then helped his son to succeed to the throne!
Wow, the logic is so clear!
There are still a lot more to come!
The current head of the Gu family was originally the captain of the Gu family's secret guard. He was actually Gu Yan's father's man and the mastermind behind the conspiracy to usurp the throne. He led the secret guards and did not participate in the battle, hoping to reap the benefits.
It was the Wu brothers who discovered the clues and went in to rescue the emperor, but it was too late. When they arrived, Gu Qing was already dead. They had no choice but to capture the murderer. For this, they forced their father, who was seriously injured and fell to the ground, to death. Then the two brothers were seriously injured and their power was greatly damaged.
Because of the existence of the Wu brothers, Gu Xing was cautious and chose to remain in hiding, allowing Gu Yan to succeed him and remain his loyal minister.
Then, after Jinmao rose to power, he dismissed Zhi Gu Yan and succeeded him as the head of the Gu family.
Although it was somewhat different from what he expected, he had achieved half of his goal!
Tsk tsk, this kind of case reasoning has gone beyond the case itself.
However, no one paid any attention to it. Instead, they watched, listened and discussed with great interest.
This logic is also very smooth!
Even the nobles who knew only a glimpse of the truth began to believe this statement.
Not to mention the subjects who knew nothing about it.
Jiang Jie was also a little skeptical at this point. Lin Yu, on the other hand, completely believed this story. There was no other way. The logic was coherent, and there was ample evidence and witnesses!
With Lin Yu's intelligence, he could tell that the evidence was genuine and the witness's testimony was true. Adding to the logical coherence, Lin Yu himself believed the story.
"My Lord, I didn't expect that Gu Xing would be such a person! It's true, you can't judge a person by his appearance!"
Judging from Gu Xingyou's appearance, speech and usual behavior, I thought he was a vicious and reckless person. Unexpectedly, the viciousness was real, and the recklessness was probably just a disguise.
Considering that Gu Xing was born in the Secret Guard, wow, that’s another clear proof.
Jiang Jie thought for a moment and replied, "No matter what Gu Xing's character is, we must proceed as planned. As for what happens next, we'll talk about it later. The current situation is also beneficial to us!"
Lin Yu understood Jiang Jie's intention. Their goal was to rule this place and weaken the Gu family's influence, which was also what they had to do. In this way, the purpose of this public trial was the same as Jin Mao's.
Lin Yu was a little confused and asked, "My Lord, if Gu Xing is the mastermind behind this, why did he request this public trial? Isn't this exposing his own shortcomings?"
Jiang Jie glanced at Jin Mao and Wu Zheng and said, "Let's not talk about the truth for now. All I can say is that Jin Mao outmaneuvered the enemy. He used the public trial as a pretext to launch a propaganda campaign to weaken the Cheng Gu family's influence. The truth revealed in the public trial may or may not be true. It all depends on who will be the final winner today!"
Lin Yu nodded in understanding. However, it was obvious that his slight fondness for Gu Xing was gone. Instead, he re-examined his interactions with Gu Xing and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Gu Xing was insidious and cunning and could not be trusted!
I started to wonder if there were any problems with the several fallback options!
…
Wu Hong watched the public trial, which was in its middle stages and about to end. Such a reversal, tsk tsk, completely contradicting the facts?!
"Brother, this, Jin Mao is really generous, completely cleared it for us!"
Wu Zheng, who was discussing with Jinmao at the time, did not expect that Jinmao would be so generous and choose to whitewash him!
However, it is undeniable that he has to accept this favor!
"Jin Mao's mind is extremely broad. In this respect, he is more capable than the lord, Gu Qing, and me!"
You can't refuse to accept it!
It is obvious that we should not clear his name, keep his stigma, and continue to oppress him.
However, Jinmao chose to whitewash him and cut off the thorns on his road to power. From this point of view, it is really generous!
On this point, within three generations, no matter who is in power between the Jin and Wu families, neither will wipe out the other family!
Jinmao has set a good example! Wu Zheng also accepted the favor. As long as the two of them can accomplish this and turn it into an established rule, all future generations of family heads will have to abide by it.
The two families take turns in power, and this will be done!
Wu Zheng was truly convinced by Jinmao! Wu Hong also changed his hostility towards Jinmao to admiration.
…
Ruan Qi was also a little confused by now, and asked Fang Yuan, "Brother Yuan, what is the truth?"
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Of course it's the one we know!"
Seeing Fang Yuan's determination, Ruan Qi asked in confusion, "I also think it should be the one we knew before. But the logical reasoning of the public trial is so rigorous, this doesn't seem fake!"
