Fu Yao looked at Li Shui with some shame and said, "My disciple is stupid."
Li Shui said: "Public opinion represents the people's hearts. My teacher asks you to be in charge of public opinion, so that you can learn how to control the people's hearts. As long as you control the people's hearts, won't Daqin be as stable as Mount Tai?"
Fu Yao nodded seriously.
Li Shui continued: "If I don't take action in this public opinion war, do you have the confidence?"
Fu Yao gritted his teeth and said, "Have confidence."
Li Shui smiled slightly and said, "It's good to have confidence."
In fact, Fu Yao had no confidence at all, but he also knew that he could not live under the wings of his master forever, and one day he would be able to rule the country independently.
I want to be the emperor of Qin and the ruler of the world. You must be able to deal with a mere Yali Daily.
Li Shui said: "Go ahead and do it with confidence."
Fu Yao was silent for a while and said, "What will happen if my disciple makes a mistake?"
Li Shui looked at him with a smile: "Did you do something wrong? How could you do something wrong?"
Fu Yao said: "What if Yali Daily is not refuted in the end, Yangwei's reputation is damaged, and the sales of our Shangjun Courtyard are affected?"
Li Shui smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter. Just a Yali Daily will not make things get out of hand."
Fu Yao nodded slowly and said to Li Shui: "Master, that disciple is leaving first."
Li Shui nodded.
After Fu Yao left, Wei Young said to Li Shui: "If we lose this time, I'm afraid it will ruin Yang Wei's life."
Li Shui smiled: "Hasn't Yangwei's life been in chaos a long time ago? If I hadn't been the one who advocated the eradication of the clan, he would have been worse off than dead in Guxian County at this time."
"Even if she fails this time, she will just return to her original life."
Wei Yang rolled her eyes at Li Shui and said, "Why are you so unsympathetic?"
Li Shui said: "Because I have great love, these small loves are not worth talking about."
"What's more, Fu Yao has outstanding abilities, why do you have so little confidence in him?"
Weiyang said: "It's not that I don't have confidence, I'm just a little worried about Yangwei. This girl's life is not easy."
Li Shui hummed: "Yes, all living beings suffer. But I am not a living god who can save the world and save people. I can't help everyone unconditionally, right?"
Wei Young looked at Li Shui with a half-smile: "Aren't you called a banished immortal? Why are you no longer a living immortal now?"
Li Shui coughed dryly and abruptly changed the subject: "I heard... His Majesty is already using my method to eliminate clan influence in various places? It is said to be very effective."
Wei Yang smiled and said: "Yes, it is indeed very effective. Now the dignitaries hate you to the core. But the common people respect you and the court with great respect and love."
Li Shui said: "This is right. In this way, the country of Qin will be as stable as Mount Tai."
Wei Yang suddenly said quietly: "I always feel that you seem a little anxious recently."
Li Shui was stunned for a moment and said, "Really?"
Weiyang hummed and said: "You have made a lot of arrangements recently, and you are in a hurry, as if you are arranging things after your death."
Li Shui rolled his eyes: "How is that possible? I am an immortal immortal, and I still have tens of thousands of years to live. What should I do in a hurry to arrange my affairs after death?"
Wei Yang smiled slightly and said: "I'm afraid only you know the reason for this."
Li Shui stretched and said, "After I die, I won't care about the flood. Don't worry, I can't bear to die. Even if I really die, I won't go to any trouble to arrange anything after my death."
Weiyang hummed: "I believe you."
Later, Li Shui closed his eyes in the sun and was about to fall asleep while basking in the sun.
Weiyang was sitting next to Li Shui, thinking with melancholy: Immortality... is really difficult. Xianglizhu has arranged so many people and worked hard for so long, but there is still not much progress.
I have given them all the support I can give them, but... alas.
And Li Shui didn't really fall asleep. He was calculating in his mind.
It has been nearly five years since I came to Daqin. Half the time has passed.
According to real history, Ying Zheng would die of a sudden illness five years later.
I wonder if Ying Zheng will discover the truth before he dies, expose his true identity as an immortal, and then issue an order to kill him?
Li Shui felt that this kind of thing was very likely to happen.
Of course, it is also possible that at the moment of his death, Ying Zheng pinned his hopes on Li Shui to develop something new.
But this hope is slim.
In the past few years, Li Shui had been thinking about Ying Zheng when he had nothing to do.
Finally, he believed that Ying Zheng should have made a will before his death.
The edict will state that if the emperor dies, the immortal must be killed immediately.
It's even possible that... this edict has probably already been established.
Whenever he thought of this, Li Shui felt a chill on the back of his neck.
Of course, if Fu Yao ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, as the new emperor pardons Li Shui, Li Shui may escape.
But it doesn't seem appropriate for the emperor to overturn the previous king's edict just after he came to power.
Or, if a villain bewitched Fu Yao, wouldn't that be worse?
It was not Li Shui's habit to place his life in the hands of others.
Therefore... Li Shui was very confused.
Forget it, there are still five years to go anyway, let’s talk about it then. At worst, study something secretly and don't hand it over yet as a last resort to save your life.
Thinking of this, Li Shui made serious calculations in his heart.
…………
Fu Yao arrived at the Jiangjun tabloid headquarters.
Everyone in the General tabloid looked at Fu Yao with trepidation.
Fu Yao looked at them, as if he hated iron, and these people all looked ashamed, and whispered: "It is our lack of ability that has let you down."
Fu Yao sighed and said to these people: "It's not too late to remedy the situation. Thinking carefully about countermeasures is the right way."
These people agreed, and then looked at Fu Yao with some admiration.
They thought that Mr. Fu Yao would be furious and criticize them, but they did not expect that Mr. Fu Yao would be so lenient.
These people lowered their heads in shame and said to Mr. Fu Yao: "I will try my best to do this well."
Fu Yao nodded and said, "What are you going to do?"
These people thought for a while and said: "We plan to continue to compete with the Yali Daily and refute them with reasonable grounds. Isn't this how we refuted the corrupt scholars in the past?"
Fu Yao said nothing, looking noncommittal.
At this time, a young reporter stood up and said cautiously: "I don't think it's possible."
Fu Yao looked at Li Shui with some shame and said, "My disciple is stupid."
Li Shui said: "Public opinion represents the people's hearts. My teacher asks you to be in charge of public opinion, so that you can learn how to control the people's hearts. As long as you control the people's hearts, won't Daqin be as stable as Mount Tai?"
