Chapter 956: Spying on Public Opinion(2/2)
The paper in the booklet is not large, but because the handwriting is small, not only can the names be written, but also brief comments can be written next to the names.
"Xu Chenghui, among the people in the capital, admires his grandson the most and is full of praise."
"Chen Guangqi, the most famous person in the capital, has a friendly attitude."
"Su Qiyuan, Gu Deyu can also be said to be the same, but Huang Luolin is a candidate from Guangyang County. He has failed three times and is already forty years old. He seems to have resentment and vents his anger on the grandson."
It turned out that when Xie Hongdao came to this restaurant, he came with these people. However, these people were in front and he was behind. There was a small gap between them.
Because I had long heard about the dinner treat, I even knew how many people were in the private room next door before I came here.
Eight people came next door. Adding the records of these eight people, one hundred and seven people have been randomly checked.
This is based on the method given by Taisun, randomly selecting scholars to gather together, and then listen to their comments. Although Taisun is not evaluated every time, Taisun is the center of discussion, so about half of them will hear the comments, and the feedback they get is very
good.
"Of the one hundred and seven people, 67 said that my grandson was good, 23 were neutral, neither good nor bad, and only 17 had some opinions."
Among the eight people next door, only Huang Luolin, a member of the Guangyang County Judiciary Committee, seemed to have some opinions about Taisun, and five of them gave positive comments, whether in rebuttal or to ease the atmosphere. It can be felt that they do have a good impression of Taisun.
If the remaining two don't speak, they are neutral.
"The heart of a scholar actually praises the great grandson so much?" Xie Hongdao was surprised. He raised his glass to eat vegetables, drank a few glasses of wine, and got up.
"In addition to scholars, we also need to randomly check the public opinion."
This is different from inspecting literati, which cannot be done in a place like this. Naturally, Xie Hongdao stayed for a short time. He picked up the four side dishes with his chopsticks, drank half a small pot of pear blossom wine, paid the bill, and left the restaurant.
If you want to examine the reputation of the market, you have to go where ordinary people go.
Don't look at the various religions and peoples on the first floor of the big restaurant, but these people are definitely not people from the market. Only street noodle restaurants and small restaurants can hide people from the market with all kinds of life styles.
Xie Hongdao didn't plan to go to a wine shop. He was not in the mood for wine and food, but he wanted to have a bowl of noodles, so he went to a noodle shop with a lot of customers.
Although there are many guests, due to the large area inside and the many tables and chairs, there are still empty seats, but the location is a bit poor, not by the window or in the corner.
But this was just convenient for Xie Hongdao to listen to the sound. He pulled out a chair and sat in an empty seat in the middle. He said to the waiter: "Here is a bowl of meat noodles. Bring up anything good."
"Okay! A bowl of fine meat noodles -" the waiter immediately responded and went inside to ask someone to prepare it.
Xie Hongdao was observing the people around him and didn't hear anyone discussing his grandson for a while. After a while, he looked familiar.
Then I heard a shout: "Your Majesty, here comes the noodles you want——"
The waiter was holding a bowl of shaved noodles, and there was a very rare beef on it, about six or seven slices!
Seeing Xie Hongdao glance at the meat, a little surprised, the waiter smiled and said: "There is a sick cow in Huangjia Village ten miles away, and the government allowed it to be slaughtered, so I caught thirty kilograms!"
Xie Hong frowned and then wanted to speak, when a steady sound of bells passed by in the distance: "Your Majesty, please get out of the way, everyone!"
There were calls one after another, accompanied by clanging sounds.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, is coming. Is this a soldier?"
After reacting, Xie Hongdao stood up together and looked outside. He saw that the ceremony was different this time. In front were fifty guards with sabers, holding the dragon flag that the grandson could use, and then there were fifty guards guarding the chariot.
Come here, followed by a large number of servants and maids.
"Your Majesty, this ceremony is a bit unusual." For some reason, Xie Hongdao only took one look at it, and the doubts he had accumulated just now became more and more serious.
"What happened?"
