Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 340 News from the Central Plains
"So many people, you killed them all, do you really think that Daqin is your family's world?" Li Qiang said sarcastically: "According to me, this time we really have to think long-term."

"The imperial court is here for Brother Zheng. No matter whether it's the promotion of officials, Yantie, or the "Daqin Weekly" in front of us, there is no doubt that it will really shake the foundation of our family. We have to find a way to resist, and we can't let Yingzheng decide. We are right!"

"Everyone understands the truth, but what is the solution?" Gongsunxiu sneered, "Anyway, they can't fix the Xun family anyway. They are already prepared. Whether they win or lose, it won't affect them at all!"

"Master Gongsun, be careful!" Xun You could no longer bear Gongsun Xiu's slander and stood up suddenly, "I have already said that the third room of the Xun family has nothing to do with our Xun family in Yingchuan. If the master of the Gongsun family no longer If you say that, please come back!"

"If you think I am willing to stay here, why, Xun You, you are so angry that you won't even let me talk about it. Since you dare to do it, you should dare to admit it!"

Gongsunxiu confronted each other, and Xun You glared angrily. Seeing that the two of them were about to have a conflict, Li Qiao quickly stood up and stopped him, "Two, two! Listen to me, the common enemy in front of us is not each other, but the court!"

"You guys are quarreling here, isn't it cheap for the imperial court? We are not the ones who lose in this fight. Why bother?" Li Qiao was a little tired. Today's meeting really disappointed him.

Fortunately, with what he said, although Gongsun Xiu and Xun You were not convinced by each other, they finally restrained their emotions.

Li Qiang looked at Li Qiao, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Listen to the Li family master, what do you have in mind?"

Li Qiao saw that someone finally turned to the main topic, and hurriedly said: "I don't dare to take it as a high opinion, but I just have some small suggestions for your reference."

"Since the imperial court used the "Daqin Weekly" to criticize us, why should we use other people's methods to deal with other people, and also run such a newspaper."

"Of course the imperial court is capable. We can't distribute newspapers all over the country like they do, but it shouldn't be difficult to distribute newspapers to our territory!"

"As long as we turn the public opinion around, get through the current hurdle, stabilize our own territory, and then slowly pursue it..."

Before Li Qiao finished speaking, Xun You's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but put her hands on her hands and said with a smile: "It is said that the head of the Li family has a talent for managing the world. Now that we have seen it, the rumors are indeed true!"

"My Xun family fully agrees with the suggestion made by the head of the Li family. As long as the newspaper we jointly publish can reverse the current situation, it will be considered a blow to the court."

"At that time, as long as our newspaper is effective, I believe that the aristocratic families from all over the world can follow suit and bring the common people and wealthy businessmen back to our camp. In this way, the imperial court will have nothing to do with us again!"

"Yeah!" Li Qiang and Gongsun Xiu finally knew how to use their brains at this time. After listening to Li Qiao and Xun You's words, after a comprehensive analysis, they all felt reasonable, "This idea is good, and we agree."

"We can't control other places, but in our own territory, we must not allow Ying Zheng to be arrogant!"

"Get a few pieces of torn paper and think that you can turn the world upside down. Do you really think this is your home? Let them take a good look at our land, is it surnamed Qin or our name!"

For a while, the several family owners in the house became more and more excited as they talked, as if they had succeeded, and then directly entered into the planning with the newspaper jointly established by several big families.

In Xianyang City, in the prime minister's mansion, Li Si, Feng Quji, Wang Ben, Feng Jing and others were sitting together, watching the "Daqin Weekly" in front of them.

"Well, the newspaper is good, and the content is what we want to see." Feng Quji was the first to finish reading the newspaper, and put it away with a relaxed expression, "Now I don't know what those aristocratic families will read this newspaper. expression."

"What kind of expression can it be? It must be so angry that your face is distorted!" Wang Ben sneered again and again, "You dare to spread rumors about His Royal Highness, and now let them taste what it feels like to be slandered!"

"Not to mention slander!" Li Si waved his hand, "The reports in this newspaper are basically true, especially the cases about the aristocratic family. They are all real cases that were carefully selected by the Prime Minister's Office. They are well-founded. , it’s not just talking nonsense!”

"No wonder it looks familiar. It turns out it's all true. Those aristocratic families must be so angry that they're going to jump to their feet now." Feng Jing smiled lightly and said, "But now we're afraid we can't just sit here and wait, we still have to take the initiative. , can’t wait for the other party to make another move!”

Feng Jing's words attracted everyone's agreement, but before anyone could offer suggestions, a voice said leisurely, "What Feng Qing said is true, but it's already too late."

"Your Majesty!" Feng Quji and the others turned their heads and saw the speaker, and immediately got up and saluted Ying Zheng who walked in.

Ying Zheng waved his hand, signaling the ministers to sit down, but he stood with his hands behind his back, and then signaled Zhang Han to place the newspapers he brought that were different from "Daqin Weekly" on the desks of several important officials in the court. in front of you.

""Central Plains News"? This is..." Feng Quji looked at the name on the newspaper, and his face suddenly changed.

Ying Zheng noticed that the faces of everyone present became ugly, and sighed slightly: "You can see it, this is a new company jointly founded by a group of aristocratic families such as the Xun Family of Yingchuan, the Li Family of Taiyuan, the Li Family of Hanoi, and the Haoqiang of Hebei. The newspaper is specifically targeting us."

"These guys are smart, and they don't distribute it nationwide, but only within the scope of their control. The Black Ice Station reported that many people in the local area were induced by the content of the newspaper and turned to the aristocratic family. .”

"Stupid! These damned fellows!" Wang Ben slammed his fist on the newspaper and cursed angrily.

Everyone here knows that the reason why the court spent so much effort and so much manpower and material resources, and the prince even used his own money to provide free newspapers, was to change the bad influence caused by the aristocratic family among the people.

But in the end, after only a few days, the aristocratic family actually did the same thing, playing a game of fighting and turning the stars, and actually produced a newspaper by themselves, and induced the thoughts of the people in the Central Plains to them.

"I came here to make preparations for you. Now this newspaper is only published in the area controlled by the aristocratic family, but there is no guarantee that it will be published in Xianyang City someday, so before that, we must take countermeasures!"

Ying Zheng's words made everyone solemn, and everyone suddenly felt a heavy burden on their shoulders!

Fortunately, Ying Zheng did not ask them to give their opinions immediately, but left the newspaper and left the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In fact, none of these ministers knew that the reason why Ying Zheng told them in advance was not to have expectations for them, but to cast a wider net, because his next stop was to go to the Prince's Mansion to ask Zhao Yi for advice. !
