Chapter 62 Slander, Slander
Mr. Lin, you owe me an explanation!
In front of everyone, Marquis Grandet walked towards the evening newspaper with a pale face. Although he was still trying his best to maintain his graceful image, whether it was his angry eyes or his rapid breathing like a bull, it was enough to prove that he was extremely angry.
"Explanation, what explanation?" Lin Taiping blinked innocently, completely ignoring the other party's fierce threat, "Ahhh, are you talking about the Evening News? Sorry, I forgot to send you a copy of the apology statement above..."
"Don't change the subject, you know what I want to say." Grandet gasped in anger and grabbed an evening newspaper directly from someone else's hands. "This news report, saying that it is a despicable and shameless slander for misappropriation of donations to find a dancer to have fun. If you can't give me an explanation, I will go to the House to sue you!"
"Wait, why are you going to sue me?" Lin Taiping touched his chin curiously, "Well, can you say that the nobleman mentioned in this news is you, Lord Marquis?"
"Uh..." It was like being punched in the face, and Marquis Grandet suddenly diminished its momentum. Although this news gave many hints, it was just a silly shot. Could it be that he would admit that he was the male lead in front of so many people, and that he would really fall into the sewage and couldn't even explain it clearly.
"So, since it's not you, why are you so excited?" Lin Taiping smiled and raised his lips, turned to look at the large group of people around him, "Everyone, tell me, will a gentleman who is kind and noble like Marquis Grandet do such dirty and shameless things?"
Well, a large group of people looked at each other and immediately shook their heads neatly. As for what they were thinking in their hearts, only God knows.
Poor Marquis Grandet was so depressed that his chest was about to explode, but he could only knock his teeth off and swallow it in his stomach: "No, of course I wouldn't do such a thing, but as a nobleman, I can't tolerate such slanderous behavior, even if I have nothing to do with the nobleman mentioned in the news."
"Is that so? You are so fraternal." Lin Taiping closed his palms with admiration, "But please note that this news was not written by us. We just received a submission from a certain author... To be honest, we were also very hesitant at the time whether to publish it, but considering that Ivory Island advocates democracy, any citizen has the right to express his opinions."
Yes, yes, everyone present could only nod. On Ivory Island, which implements the parliamentary electoral system, any citizen can freely express his opinions. Even if someone stands at the door of the House to curse the MP, as long as it is not slandering and rumoring or personal attacks, the scolded MP can only stare at and listen.
But the problem is that cursing in front of the House will at most hundreds of people hear it. However, according to the popularity of the Ivory Evening News, it is estimated that in less than six hours, more than 500,000 people in the entire Ivory Island will be full of discussions on this big scandal. At that time...
For a moment, Marquis Grandet fainted from happiness when he thought that he would soon become famous.
It took more than ten years to do so many things against one's will and finally accumulate reputation has been destroyed because of this storm news. What's worse is that in just two months, the voting of the parliamentary election will officially begin. If my reputation continues so bad... no!
After instantly understanding something, Marquis Grandet suddenly became terrified. He finally understood what the revenge plan of Christine and the young man was. Their purpose was not to regain the inheritance, but to retaliate more and make him completely ruined and he would never become a member of parliament.
No! I will never allow it!
He was so angry that his whole body was trembling. Marquis Grandet felt that his heart was sinking into the darkness, but he immediately tried hard to tell himself to be calm and calm. The despicable little face, don’t you think about doing this. In order to become a member of parliament, I spent more than ten years of hard work and invested a lot of manpower and financial resources. At this critical moment of success, no one can stop me, no one can think of it!
Taking a few deep breaths, Marquis Grandet suddenly returned to calm, and raised his head with a pale face, looking at Lin Taiping gloomy: "Yes, Mr. Lin, as you said, any citizen has the right to express his opinion... But I must point out that you have published this news directly without any verification. Have you considered the consequences?"
This is true. Everyone present could not help but nodded, and they had to admit that Marquis Grandet's accusations were somewhat reasonable. After all, after this news was published, it would be seen by people on the entire Ivory Island.
"Yes, the consequences are very serious!" With everyone's approval, Marquis Grandet was like a shot of a heart-wrenching injection, and even his waist was straightened. He immediately shouted with a serious face, "Your irresponsible behavior has damaged the reputation of others and affected the normal order of Ivory Island. Therefore, I will immediately file a complaint with the House, accusing you..."
"Yes, yes, this is really serious." Lin Taiping nodded humbly, and then said seriously, "So, in order to avoid the influence of rumors, we also marked a sentence at the end of the news."
What did you say? Marquis Grandet was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looking at the news. Everyone present couldn't help but lower their heads and turned their attention to the end of the news again.
Well, at the bottom of the Yangyangsha press release, there is a line of small words that are almost impossible to see clearly - "Please note that this article is only the author's personal opinion and does not represent the attitude and position of the Ivory Evening News."
I'm going! That's OK?
In an instant, everyone present almost fell down, shameless and shameless. The news in front accounted for a quarter of the page and was written in a scattered manner, but after just a small sentence, he threw away his responsibilities completely. Which bastard came up with this devil-like genius idea?
"Well, I definitely didn't think of this." Lin Taiping looked up innocently at the sky, suddenly feeling that he should pay the most respect to those pioneers of news workers. "But no matter what, we have reminded me that if someone completely believes in the content of this news, I can only express regrets, regrets from the bottom of my heart."
Unfortunately, you are! Poor Marquis Grandet, I just felt that my eyes were dark. If the butler next to me hadn't been supported by him, I would have been hit and killed in front of the evening newspaper: "Damn... a bastard... just like that, do you want to clear your responsibility?"
"What about that?" Lin Taiping was as pure as a little sheep, and he did not forget to add, "Or, we will do you a favor and find the author of the submission. You can go to the House of Commons to accuse him, but then again, that guy doesn't know where it is. There are hundreds of thousands of people on more than a dozen islands, and it's really hard to find, but I believe that it will always be found after a year or two."
Go to death! You bastard, why don’t you die?
Marquis Grandet was about to get mad, his eyes were bloodshot and gritted his teeth. He suddenly turned around and left with a twisted face, and he was no longer willing to stay here and be insulted: "Damn it, wait for me, this matter is not over, I will definitely go to the House to accuse you."
"Okay, OK, we're waiting." Lin Taiping waved his hand with a smile, watching the Marquis leave angrily, and then slowly added, "By the way, let's preview, the front page headline of the new Evening News is a special report about a certain noble trauma's murderous brother. Does anyone plan to book a few copies in advance?"
Very very powerful. Marquis Grandet, who had just walked a few steps, almost staggered and fell to the ground, but he didn't say anything more. He stepped onto the carriage angrily and ordered the coachman to drive away from this damn place immediately.
In the dim carriage, the atmosphere was extremely depressed. The housekeeper bent over tremblingly, waited for a long time and finally asked carefully: "Sir, can you just forget it?"
"Bastard, how could it be done like this?" Marquis Grandet directly slapped over, took the Ivory Evening News again, and slapped it heavily with a ferocious face. "Check it out for me and find the author of this news. No matter whether he is from the Evening News or any bastard outside, he must find it out for me."
"Yes!" The housekeeper covered his swollen face and replied loudly in grievance and anger, "Sir, don't worry, I will use all my strength to find this bastard named Anonymous."
"Yes, I want him to pay the price, the heaviest price." Marquis Grandet clenched his fists with gritted teeth, "Anonymous, you damn bastard, wait for me, I must find you and let you be with that little white face..."
Without any warning, the carriage suddenly braked suddenly. The pale man pretended to be holding the charming beauty and was passing by. He was almost hit by the carriage. Fortunately, he barely avoided it in the critical moment.
"Damn it!" Marquis Grandett poked his head out of the car window. When he saw the man's face, he jumped out of the carriage in anger and slapped it directly, "Godor, you useless waste, I give you so much money every month, is it all used to spend money on the world?"
"My father, I'm not spending money." After being slapped, the poor Gordo did not dare to resist at all. Who said that Marquis Grandet was his father, and who told him to pass by with a woman, and then he just happened to run into it.
"Dare you still dare to say it?" Marquis Grandet became even more angry and slapped another time, this time he slapped the woman in the face, "Get out of here, let me see you** my son again, I will send you to feed the sharks."
Crack! Crack! Crack!
In the chaos of chaos, no one noticed that at this moment, in the ordinary alley next to it, a few silver-white lights suddenly flashed.
Immediately afterwards, with the ripples of air, several dark elves appeared ghostly. Ye Ge smiled and hugged the crystal ball. Looking at the scene just taken in the crystal ball, he showed a satisfied smile—
"Well, Lin is right. There is no shortage of news in the world, but the eyes to discover news..."
