Jiang Tian smiled and said to the nobleman interrogating her, "I did see a movie before, in which a woman suffered abuse and harassment from her husband and husband's father for a long time, and her life was miserable."
"She had a lover who wanted to help her escape after learning about her past, but she refused many times. Later, her daughter was about to start dating, and when she looked at her daughter, she saw her past self and kept giving in. She didn't want her daughter to repeat the same mistakes, so she wanted to help her, but her daughter was afraid that she would affect her love life and ignored her. Her family also didn't understand her."
"Just then, she received a letter from her first love, saying he wanted to take her away. This woman began to act; she asked friends to help stall her husband, buying time, and painstakingly did her makeup, looking beautiful and charming. At that moment, all the viewers thought she was going to run off to her first love and start a new life. But unexpectedly—"
"After she finished her makeup, while everyone was frantically searching for her, she appeared in the voting line. It turned out that it was the day she was eligible to vote as a voter, and she cast her vote."
Jiang Tian looked at the nobleman with a relaxed and open smile: "I also have a part in this country, and I want to cast my vote, even if it takes a lot of hardship."
The nobleman was enraged by her gaze; he simply couldn't understand why Su Yuyao had chosen such an idealistic fiancée.
Doesn't she know that many people now see her as a thorn in their side and wish they could get rid of her as soon as possible?
Her frankness left the nobles speechless.
Later, the nobleman didn't want to ask any more questions. Jiang Tian had already made her purpose very clear: she just wanted to cast her vote.
The nobles couldn't understand it. They felt that commoners shouldn't do this and stubbornly believed that everyone was born unequal, and that this was predetermined from the moment of birth.
The nobles couldn't understand Jiang Tian's way of thinking, so they could only lock her up.
Even though Su Yuyao, Jiang Xianyu, and even Cui Linye pleaded for Jiang Tian's release, it was a collective rule and the nobles would never let her go.
Jiang Tian's remarks have had a terrible social impact and seriously damaged the interests of the nobility. They will not only not let her off the hook, but will also make an example of her to show everyone the consequences of challenging them.
Clearly, Jiang Tian's speech at the wedding failed to sway the proud nobles.
In the eyes of the nobles, she was completely insane. She thought she was a hero just because she said a few words. Her so-called heroic actions were nothing but idealism and a pure waste of resources.
The nobles firmly believed that the common people had long been divided, and no one would approve of Jiang Tian. How could anyone be as foolish as her?
The phrase "like an egg striking a rock" is insufficient to describe her foolishness.
Jiang Tian's speech at the wedding and the news of her imprisonment quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys.
Many people did think Jiang Tian was incredibly stupid from the beginning. Didn't she know what she was doing?
Everyone is busy making a living and has no time to care about others.
Besides, they're already ordinary people at the bottom of society; it's good enough if they can just survive.
Upon hearing the news of Jiang Tian's imprisonment, some people chose to remain silent, while others said nothing, but no one was happy about it, not even the nobles.
They didn't want ordinary people like Jiang Tian to appear, because it would expose their past, and that felt terrible.
Jiang Tian was just an ordinary person, and she was only saying ordinary things, but for some reason, her every move attracted a lot of attention. Many people were unconsciously watching her, wanting to see what her final fate would be.
Soon after, devastating news arrived—it was said that Jiang Tian had provoked the nobles, causing extremely negative social impact, and the nobles planned to take her life as punishment for everyone.
What? Are you crazy? Why would you want her dead?
Many ordinary people are getting restless.
Jiang Tian's words were indeed somewhat idealistic, even extreme, but she didn't harm anyone's life. Doesn't she even have the right to speak?
This is so strange; the common people never imagined that someone could lose their life for telling the truth.
To be executed for saying a few words? That's utterly absurd!
A wave of calls to save Jiang Tian swept across the internet, with many people calling for a civilian strike.
Although the civilian population is small in number, their sheer numbers mean that a strike could have disastrous consequences.
Some people are also lobbying the general public, saying that a force can gain attention when it reaches 25% of the total population, and they are working towards that goal.
Strangely, ordinary people couldn't have a voice before, so why can they now?
In their righteous indignation, many people overlooked this issue, but the nobles did not.
After an investigation, they discovered that Su Yuyao and Jiang Xianyu had instigated and promoted this whole affair.
They have access to numerous resources, making it easy for them to amplify certain voices.
traitor.
These two traitors.
Su Yuyao's obsession with Jiang Tian is incomprehensible.
Jiang Xianyu has always been self-centered and doesn't care about family loyalty at all; he is also a traitor!
Both families told them to leave it alone, but they didn't actually go to the prison to bail her out. Instead, they used conventional methods to influence public opinion, deepen the public's understanding, and encourage the public to spontaneously resist the severe punishment of Jiang Tian. They used others to do their dirty work, played the rules very well, and didn't even leave any evidence, so there was really no way to find out what they had done wrong.
But their actions were effective.
The common people really took action.
Initially, they demanded the release of Jiang Tian, but after receiving no response, the situation gradually escalated.
As the days went by and the two sides remained deadlocked, even the ordinary people themselves thought that one day they would actually go on strike.
Psychologists analyze that this strike is the result of a long-accumulated outburst of anger.
This shows how deeply this society oppresses ordinary people.
The fact that ordinary people have been holding back their tempers doesn't mean they don't have one.
This time, Jiang Tian became the fuse, igniting the entire explosion.
In reality, the anger of ordinary people has been accumulating for many years and generations.
Why should we be born to be beasts of burden?
Why shouldn't they even be given the basic qualifications to be human beings?
Why should I?!
When commoners go on strike, the entire aristocratic society teeters on the brink of collapse.
How could the underlying structure not be important?
If they weren't important, what would the nobles need commoners for? And what would be the point of going to the trouble of brainwashing them?
They had finally managed to brainwash the civilians, but their actions were exposed during Jiang Tian's speech, which led to a setback.
As public opinion fermented, the common people began to awaken and went on strike—the nobles had really shot themselves in the foot.
The influence of imitative behavior is terrifying, which is why nobles have always tried their best to suppress peasant uprisings.
But this time, they could no longer suppress it.
There were too many civilians, and the punishment of executing Jiang Tian for merely speaking out was outrageous. They were furious, and no amount of persuasion could sway them.
Coupled with the influence of some unseen forces, the anger of the common people directly affected the lives of the nobles.
Without the commoners willing to serve like slaves, the lives of many nobles suddenly became less comfortable.
Only then did they finally start to panic.
On the third day of the civilian strike, Jiang Tian was finally released.
