Chapter 1065 Control public opinion and rescue disaster situations!

   "Rumble..."

   The chariot rumbled along, and Ying Gao in a black brocade clothes stood on it, with a constant smile on his face.

   gives people a feeling that the wisdom beads are in hand and everything is under control.

   For entering Xianyang Palace this time, Ying Gao did not have much of a heavy heart. He knew in his heart that in the face of such natural disasters, the imperial court could only do its best.

   What he really cares about is the public opinion that follows. As for disaster relief, the court already has experience.

   "Your Majesty, the Xianyang Palace is here!" The chariot stopped at the Xianyang Palace carriage and horse farm, and the iron eagle said towards Yinggao.

"Um."

   nodded, Ying Gao got off the chariot and walked forward. After a quarter of an hour, Ying Gao finally entered the study room of Xianyang Palace.

   "My son Yinggao pays respects to his father, Wang Nian, Daqin Wannian--!" Entering the study room of Xianyang Palace, Ying Gao saluted Ying Zheng with a very respectful attitude.

   "Longevity!"

  Yingzheng put down the bamboo slips in his hand, and his eyes fell on Yinggao's body: "The earth dragon's turn has subsided. Because of the participation of Daqin Ruishi, the rescue speed this time is extremely fast."

   "Because there are enough doctors, although there are casualties, they are all within the acceptable range!"

"Um."

   Ying Gao was not surprised when Ying Zheng told him about it. After all, he hadn't set foot in Xianyang Palace for a month. Now that he came, Ying Zheng felt that it was for this matter.

   took a seat next to him, Yinggao poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and then turned to Yingzheng, saying, "Father, my son entered the palace this time, not for the sake of the earth dragon turning over."

   "Oh, what's that for?" At this moment, Ying Zheng was a little surprised, but he knew that Ying Gao would never set foot in Xianyang Palace if he had nothing to do.

  Every time you come, there is something more or less. For a long time, it was he who sent Ying Gao to come to discuss it. Once Ying Gao came in person, it meant that it was a big deal.

   "Father, there is news from people under Erchen's hands that Longxi County and Beidi County have not fallen for a month. If this continues, a drought will inevitably form."

   "At that time, the hungry people will sweep through Guanzhong, and my Daqin has just annexed South Korea. Once the news spreads, public opinion will spread everywhere, and both the father and the court will be at the center of public opinion."

   Having said this, Ying Gao paused in his tone and threw his hands towards Ying Zheng, saying, "I don't know if Father Wang is aware of this matter. Is there any news from the local government office and the Black Ice Terrace?"

   Hearing this, Yingzheng frowned. For the first time, he noticed that something was amiss: "There is news from the local government office and the Black Ice Terrace, but there was no rain in January, and it was very common, but it happened."

   "Therefore, the widows didn't care, and the government officials didn't care either."

   Having said this, Yingzheng's expression became solemn, and he pointed at Yinggao and said, "Is the news of Jingyesi accurate, and what is the probability of drought?"

   At this moment, Yingzheng had some expectations in his heart, although he already knew that the possibility of drought was extremely high, after all, Yinggao personally came to Xianyang Palace for this matter.

   "Father, there is a great possibility of a drought. My son thinks that the court must take countermeasures, so that even if there is a drought, we won't be in a hurry."

  Yinggao bowed his hands to Yingzheng and said: "And once rumors spread, the government and the opposition will go up and down, and the hearts of the army and the people will be turbulent. This matter must be handled carefully."

   "The eventful autumn!"

   With a sigh, Ying Zheng took a deep look at Ying Gao, his tone became solemn, and said, "Not long ago, the imperial doctor's order told the widow that the queen mother's body is ill, and the day is worse than the day."

   "According to the conjecture of the imperial doctor's order, the queen mother has only half a month left. Once the drought breaks out, and the news of the earth dragon turning over will be gathered together."

   Daqin had just destroyed Han, and Yinggao was still slaughtering in Han, and after killing the whole line of Han kings in one fell swoop, if so many negative news broke out, then the public opinion would definitely be unfavorable to Daqin.

   "Father, the imperial court's control over public opinion has always been too weak. Except for the promulgation of edicts to explain, it is basically blank."

Speaking of this, Ying Gao's tone became serious, even with a trace of murder: "Public opinion is a collection of personal views, attitudes and beliefs expressed by a considerable number of people on a specific topic; the self-language of an individual or group , to express an opinion on an event, to influence people's thoughts and actions."

   "In Erchen's view, public opinion is also a war. If we don't occupy the position of public opinion, the enemy will occupy it."

   "It is necessary to develop the mouthpiece of the court to control the development of public opinion."

   A murderous intent appeared in Yinggao's eyes, and there was a trace of regret in the depths of his eyes. He knew in his heart that he was just reminding Yingzheng that it was difficult for Daqin to control public opinion at this moment.

  Although the paper has been researched, it has been useless for the benefit of Daqin, and it has been placed in the Shaofu and Shang workshops. It will be used as a weapon to deal with hundreds of schools of thought after Daqin swept the six countries of Shandong in the future.

  Only the establishment of a newspaper can be regarded as a preliminary control of public opinion. In the Central Plains, most of the people are illiterate. Before the publication of the newspaper, before the literacy, the possibility of controlling public opinion is very small.

   However, that doesn’t mean letting it go.

  It is difficult for the imperial court to control public opinion, and it is also difficult for the same enemy. How to operate it depends entirely on each other's means.

   What's more, people who are illiterate at this time are often the easiest to be deceived. It's just that the imperial court has not paid much attention to this point, so that the position of public opinion has always been in the hands of the enemy.

   Hearing Ying Gao's words, Ying Zheng nodded. At this time, he had already realized the influence of public opinion on a country. Public opinion can also be a knife, and it can kill people invisibly.

   "To control public opinion, the widow will let Heibingtai stare at it. If there is a drought in Longxi County and Beidi County, and the Queen Mother has an accident, what will you do?"

   Yingzheng knew that Yinggao had already come to Xianyang Palace. Apart from warning him, there must be a certain solution to this matter.

   He knows Yinggao's character too well.

   Make a decision and then move, take one step and count ten steps. Since you have raised a problem, you must have a solution in your heart.

   Hearing this, Ying Gao gave a wry smile, and turned towards Ying Zheng, saying, "For this matter, in addition to controlling public opinion, the court has already had countless experiences in managing and treating disasters, so why should the ministers say more."

   Yinggao knew about this matter, but he didn't want to say it. With so many officials in the imperial court, Daqin issued countless stipends a year, how could they be allowed to sit still.

   After all, he knew Yingzheng too well. Once he came up with a solution, he would have to go to Beidi County and Longxi County in the future.
