Beauty and the Bodyguard
Chapter 11245
"..."
Lin Yi's heart suddenly sank.
Although what happened today was specially planned, Xiao Mang had taken a liking to Dongfang Yan and sent someone to brainwash her. This was indeed something he had never expected.
Although based on Lin Yi's understanding of Dongfang Yan, this master is definitely not someone who can be manipulated easily. Even with Xiao Mang's level, if he wants to control her through brainwashing or other means, the possibility of succeeding is extremely slim.
But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst.
If something happened to Dongfang Yan, even if Lin Yi could remedy the situation, he would still have to feel guilty for it.
They stared at each other in a stalemate for a moment.
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat and he immediately stretched out his arms to hug him into his arms. No matter what, today's scene had to be finished first.
As a result, the next second, Dongfang Yan, who had been acting like a good girl just now, suddenly said, "I can't do it anymore! It's so awkward for you to hold me like this, I can't hold it in anymore!"
Then there was a burst of hearty laughter.
Lin Yi suddenly had black lines on his head: "You are very realistic in your acting! Didn't I realize you had such a talent before?"
Dongfang Yan puffed up his chest when he heard this and said, "Of course I'm lifelike. I'm sure it's fake. If you don't believe me, why don't you try it?"
"..."
Lin Yi retreated on the spot.
In a daze, Dongfang Yan suddenly turned over and jumped down, then threw his arms around his neck. Lin Yi was hugged in a princess hug, and then Yin Ling burst out of the sedan chair with a big smile.
Everyone outside was dumbfounded.
They have seen the drama of snatching a bride, but who is snatching whom now?
Strange things happened one after another today.
The Emperor Zhou's visit to congratulate him was very unusual in itself, and the emperor's assassination was even more unusual. Even if he did not succeed, it would still be an earth-shattering event.
The result is now good, the assassination has turned into a bride-kidnapping.
Not only is it about robbing a bride, but it also changes from a man robbing a girl to a woman robbing a man. The style of the painting changes so quickly that it stands out in an outrageous way.
The gossip souls in the audience immediately began to burn.
What made Xiao Mang even more unexpected was that the video of Dongfang Yan rushing out of the sedan chair with Lin Yi in his arms was immediately circulated.
This was obviously planned in advance.
For such a dramatic scene, even if the Internet in the Inner Court has not been fully popularized, the speed of its spread is absolutely explosive.
"Block it down! Block it down quickly! No one is allowed to discuss today's events, no one is allowed!"
Xiao Mang quickly realized something was wrong and hurriedly arranged for the housekeeper to put out the fire.
He has been in charge of etiquette and law for many years as the Taifu, and the mouthpiece of the entire inner court is firmly in his hands. Especially after these years of intensive cultivation, the entire public opinion system can be said to follow the rules and prohibitions.
Not only the official media, but various local media also collectively remained silent after receiving the order immediately.
It's like nothing happened.
However, Xiao Mang still underestimated the vitality of today's show.
Even if the mainstream media all pretend to be dead and collectively avoid talking about it, they still can't suppress the word of mouth from everyone.
The entire chain of transmission is a completely viral exponential outbreak. In a very short period of time, it has shown a tendency to spread to the entire Yingjing Prefecture. Moreover, this is just the beginning.
There is no way, the matter is too big, the key is that it is too dramatic and too enjoyable to hear and see.
Especially after several rounds of word-of-mouth spread, the whole thing's version continued to iterate and began to develop in an increasingly weird direction.
For example, Dongfang Yan became Xiao Mang's adopted daughter, and there was an unholy love affair between father and daughter. The addition of Lin Yi turned it into a love triangle.
What’s even more outrageous is that in the latest version, even Emperor Zhou has been added to the story, making him look like a tragic figure who watched his junior sister being kidnapped.
However, as outrageous as it is, it is undeniable that after various secondary creations by the general public, the spread of the whole thing has obviously reached a higher level.
In less than half a day, the city was already in turmoil.
Under such circumstances, the mainstream media, let alone pretending to be dead collectively, even if they made a unified voice to clear the ground, would be submerged in the national carnival every minute.
To be honest, even Lin Yi, who designed all of this himself, couldn't help but be surprised by such an exaggerated spreading speed.
All we can say is that the power of the people is infinite.
With a look of amusement on his face, Emperor Zhou left under the protection of many imperial guards, taking Lin Yi and Dongfang Yan with him.
Xiao Mang originally wanted to leave the two of them behind, but at this time he had too much time to take care of himself.
Lin Yi's identity was not something he could deprive him of if he wanted to.
After all, no matter what, he is one of the four principals of the Security Review Department. Unless it directly affects the safety of the Inner Palace, even if he is the Third Duke, he has no right to detain him.
What's more, Lin Yi and Dongfang Yan are now the focus of conversation. Detaining them means that the heat will only get higher and the situation will become even more uncontrollable.
Right now, he has more important things to do.
The moral monument is cracked.
Xiao Mang's rise from a humble scholar to his current height was certainly inseparable from the appreciation and promotion of the previous emperor, but the most important thing was that he had accumulated a moral monument for himself, which was the foundation of his career.
Moral model is not just a simple honorary title for him, it is the foundation of everything for him!
As long as the moral monument remains, he will still have the confidence to deal with all parties to the end.
No matter how criticized by his political opponents before, his moral monument has always been intact, so he has always been confident.
But today, he was really panicked.
The cracks in the moral monument mean that because of the spread of this incident, more and more people have begun to question him.
His perfect character as a moral model began to show signs of collapse.
This is something Xiao Mang absolutely cannot tolerate!
"Suppress it! You must suppress it for me! No matter what the cost!"
For the first time, Xiao Mang showed his hysterical side in front of others. No matter what, his character as a moral model cannot be defeated!
However, the cruel reality gave him a slap, a solid slap.
Even if the public opinion machine he controls is at full capacity, even running at 120% overload, it still cannot limit the expansion of gossip news.
On the contrary, the harder the mainstream media suppresses it, the stronger the public opinion at the bottom will rebound.
The more people who believe in the bizarre versions that come out.
More importantly, the image played by Xiao Mang gradually became more and more negative. It was no longer just a moral flaw, but he seemed to be running on the road of heinous crimes.
As a result, instead of being repaired, the cracks in the moral monument have shown a trend of accelerating expansion.
At first, the crack was just an inconspicuous hair, but now it is half a finger wide!
Everyone in Xiao Mang was dumbfounded.
He really couldn't understand why the situation was so good two days ago and how could it have fallen to this point in the blink of an eye?
If I had to say it, all he did was take in a house of concubines. As for that?
