Fengxian Jiangshan

Yuan Keding has been working hard to push Lao Yuan to the throne of the emperor. He thinks that he has settled most of his opponents.These guys write articles every day, and the voices criticizing Junxian are endless, and they also point the finger of attack at Yuan Shikai's ills in power over the years, 21 articles, and even the betrayal of Emperor Guangxu.

Faced with the raging public opinion, Mr. Yuan was helpless. He also asked some imperial literati, including Yang Du, to write articles to launch a counterattack, but the results were minimal. Instead, they were scolded bloody.

The matter of Zhang Tinglan scolding Yang Shuqing was published in the newspapers. Yuan Keding seemed to have found a savior suddenly, and wanted to ask him to show him a clear way to regain control of public opinion. However, Zhang Tinglan suggested that he fight head-on, but Yuan Keding had long since lost confidence. .

"Ting Lan, it's not that I haven't thought about arguing with them, starting a debate in the newspapers, and the results are all defeated. That's why I want you to think of a better way for me."

"My lord, these literati are not one or two. If you don't have enough talents, I can't argue with them even if I am exhausted. In my opinion, you might as well use administrative power to shut them up. For example, formulate news and publication regulations, weed out those nonsense small publishing houses, and then control the news of large publishing houses. What kind of articles can be published and what kind of articles can’t be published, there must be regulations, and those who violate the regulations will be punished .”

News management is a common method used by all countries, and China is now divided, with various voices flooding the society, which is not conducive to the concentration of power, so news control is imperative.After Zhang Tinglan finished speaking, Yuan Keding also fell into deep thought, but he shook his head again.

"Ting Lan, if we do this, we are afraid that some people will say that we suppress freedom of speech, and it will only lead to greater opposition!"

Zhang Tinglan looked at Yuan Keding with a troubled expression, and felt very contemptuous in his heart. This eldest son typically wants to eat but is afraid of being hot.He wants to be an emperor, but he doesn't have the courage and courage to be assertive with an iron fist. It's no wonder that Lao Yuan only dreamed of being an emperor for 83 days. Yuan Keding perfectly interprets the word cheating father.

"My lord, freedom of speech doesn't mean what they want to say, they just say what they say, and they have to be responsible for what they say." Zhang Tinglan said to this point, only to see Yuan Keding still hesitant, it's completely muddy that can't support the wall. .

"Eldest son, I still have a way to hide my ears and steal my bell. I wonder if you would like to listen to it?"

"What way, might as well talk about it!"

"Eldest son, if you can't control the mouths of literati, you can cover the eyes of the president!"

Yuan Keding's eyes suddenly brightened: "I'm afraid this is not possible. My father has to read newspapers every day, and it has become a habit."

"It's absolutely possible to let the President see what he wants to see. Why don't you do something with the newspapers?" Zhang Tinglan seems to have heard that Yuan Keding specially printed a bunch of fake newspapers in order to persuade Yuan Shikai. Old Yuan saw that they all supported him. He was enthroned, so his heart was full of joy, but the newspapers outside scolding him were still flying all over the sky.

Yuan Keding frowned, turned around on the ground a few times, suddenly smiled, patted Zhang Tinglan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Tinglan, your idea is very good, and I will print a few newspapers for my father later, so that he can You won’t be able to see those nasty articles.”

The more Yuan Keding thought about it, the happier he became: "Ting Lan, this idea is great. You will stay in Beijing and be responsible for advising me. When the President is promoted to a higher level, you will be the Crown Prince's Assistant Prime Minister!"

Faced with the prince's promise, Zhang Tinglan was not at all happy. This guy was just kidding about his father. He didn't think about how easy it is to sit on the emperor's throne, so his father drove the orphans and widows off with his own hands. , if you don't eliminate all the hidden dangers, even if you become an emperor, you won't be able to sit still.

Yuan Keding didn't care about these things, and went directly to print a special newspaper for Lao Yuan. Yuan Shikai's whole life was a traitor, but in the end he was fooled by his son. It's really interesting to think about it.

But Zhang Tinglan couldn't laugh anymore. After his argument was first published in the newspaper, it was praised by many people, and Yang Shuqing's reputation was ruined overnight.But then things turned around, newspapers began to flood with articles unfavorable to Zhang Tinglan, and these people even involved Lao Yuan in it.

They said how could a young man know so many anecdotes about foreign countries, he could tell everything he said, and he knew about Yang Shuqing's family situation.Then they said that Zhang Tinglan's advocacy of science and engineering education and hard work is actually to make everyone dumb, deaf, and tools like cattle and horses that can only work but not think.

It is a measure to fool the people in the new era. Who wants the common people to become stupid? Obviously, it is Yuan Shikai, President Yuan. He wants to be the emperor and is afraid of public opinion in the world. Slandering new ideas, as the saying goes, it is easy to hide from the open, but hard to defend from the dark. This is how Yang Shuqing was calculated.

Soon these statements filled the newspapers, and the focus of the attack changed from Zhang Tinglan, a nobody, to Yuan Shikai.People like Zhang Tinglan were dumbfounded after seeing these reports.

"Brother Ting Lang, what do these guys mean? It's a sin to be knowledgeable and knowledgeable about emotions. It's unreasonable for them to make unlimited use of this!"

Zhang Xueliang looked at these newspapers with a dumbfounded look. These scholars are too good. Zhang Tinglan won the first game, but was moved back later. They no longer bothered to talk to Zhang Tinglan. With full firepower, directly attack Yuan Shikai.

"Hanqing, haven't you understood yet? I told Yang Shuqing at the beginning that you can't beat your opponent in business, but you can smear them morally. They are using this method now!"

"Indeed, they don't say that what you said is right or wrong. They say that someone ordered it, which turned into a conspiracy. That guy Yang Shuqing was also passed over and became a victim. I'm afraid that after a while, he will come back again. He came out like a dog to deceive people."

The reason why things became like this is that Zhang Tinglan poked at the pain points of these scholars. Zhang Tinglan questioned Yang Shuqing's method of learning, and cited a large number of examples to fight back. In fact, many scholars are like this now. A few plausible examples, and then hasty conclusions.

If Zhang Tinglan's statement is widely accepted by the society, these scholars will be in trouble. They have to investigate statistics every day, check academic journals, understand the latest research results, and use complex mathematical models to analyze data. This work is really too troublesome No, they don't want to suffer from this.

In addition, Zhang Tinglan advocates science and engineering. If the country really does this, it means that education funds will be skewed towards science and engineering. This will undoubtedly touch the cheese of the literati, and they are absolutely unwilling to accept it.

Of course, Zhang Tinglan pointed out that what they hate the most is that they have not yet reached the old moral standards. If they want to scold others, they must first ensure that they have no problems. If there is a moral problem, how can they scold others?In addition, Zhang Tinglan has exposed the shortcomings of Western society, which is simply digging up the graves of these scholars and driving them almost crazy.

In fact, literati like Yang Shuqing have existed from ancient times to the present. Their method is very simple, that is, to establish a perfect image first, and then compare it with the reality, and talk about how dark the society is.Before the Opium War, they used the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties as benchmarks. In fact, everyone knew that the three dynasties with slavery really had so many advantages, and could they really surpass the previous dynasties!

Obviously it was a joke, but these celebrities took advantage of people's unwillingness to reveal the shortcomings of their ancestors, and even the emperor was led by the nose.After the Opium War, it is obviously outdated to talk about the rule of three generations.

So they set the West as the perfect object, and then just grab a dark side of China and say what you think of the West, regardless of whether the West is really as good as they say.This kind of work is really too simple, and there is no need to think at all, because China is backward, so the harder they scold, the more famous they will be, and the more exaggerated they will be, the more support they will get.

Zhang Tinglan obviously saw their methods clearly and exposed them, which finally touched the pain points of these literati. Ancient China was not so bad, and Western society was not so good. ah.After these scholars realized the lethality of Zhang Tinglan's views, cutting off people's wealth, such as killing their parents.

They couldn't sit still, so they set off a massive crusade, vowing to block Zhang Tinglan's arguments to ensure their authority and jobs.

"Hanqing, Lao Yuan can't do anything to these literati, and we have nothing to do, but we all have to pay attention. One day, if we really want to be in power, we must not be fooled by these scholars. We must truly serve the bottom of the country. The common people think about it and try to increase their well-being!"

Zhang Xueliang nodded vigorously. While talking, Lao Zhang walked in with a smile, holding a document in his hand. He threw it on the table and said with a smile: "Look, Ting Lan, the British agree. Cooperate with us!"

The efficiency during the war was really extraordinary. After Zhu Erdian sent a notice to the British Consulate in Fengtian, they quickly went to inspect the factories mentioned by Zhang Tinglan and talked with Wang Yongjiang, although they still looked down on Fengtian's weak foundation. , but they also admit that Fengtian has certain investment value.

After Zhu Erdian got the report, he quickly contacted the country to facilitate this cooperation plan. The first batch of orders was as much as 50 pounds. In addition, the United Kingdom also promised to provide Fengtian with a batch of machines to help expand the canning factory, so that the output can be increased as soon as possible. Breaking through one million, and also promised to aid a power plant!

Seeing this, Zhang Tinglan's face showed joy, and finally had a chance to flex his muscles!
