Being fooled.

When Fei Hong's votes came out, the first reaction of many people was that these three words appeared from the bottom of their hearts, and then their hearts suddenly skipped a beat. At this moment, they finally figured out a lot of things.

I am afraid that even the so-called vocational newspaper was a smoke bomb. Everyone spoke in unison and heated up Fei Hong's momentum, but they forgot about a fatal problem.

That is Fei Hong in the capital, or even in Nanjing. Because of the huge publicity of the newspaper, most people know Fei Hong. Under the inspiration of the newspaper, many students had great expectations for Fei Hong. Because of this, those scholars in the two capitals had an illusion that Li Dongyang had exhausted his energy, and that only by keeping Fei Hong would he have the chance to defeat Wang Hua in one fell swoop.

However... everyone fell into this misunderstanding. At that time, anti-commerce students and scholars had no experience in public recommendation and elections. Even people like Li Dongyang were blind and touched elephants. Even if someone occasionally asked such questions, they were quickly covered up by countless news and publicity.

Then everyone ignored a very important issue. The world is not just southern Zhili and northern Zhili. In the Ming Dynasty, there were thirteen provinces in the pass alone. The students and scholars of these thirteen provinces could not learn about the news in the capital at the first time. It would be a bit unpleasant. Many places may not even have even heard of Fei Hong. Everyone only knows Wang Hua and Li Dongyang.

Under such circumstances, the more than 30,000 votes must be voted by scholars in southern Zhili and northern Zhili, as well as some big cities. Taking advantage of everyone's concern for Li Dongyang, coupled with the storm of the scholar newspapers, and the loud criticism of Li Dongyang by Taibai newspapers, so that those who were in the big city only heard the people around him denounce Li Dongyang and Wang Hua, and then began to be summoned and responded. In the end, they voted for Fei Hong without hesitation.

But even so, it was still a drop in the bucket. The number of votes was only half of Wang Hua's.

Everyone suddenly woke up...

Immediately, many eyes fell on Li Dongyang.

Now, the final victory or defeat is only waiting for Li Dongyang's votes.

If calculated based on the previous number of votes, there should be 70,000 votes left. These votes should be all in Mr. Li, and 70,000 votes, which should be extremely likely to surpass Wang Hua.

Li Dongyang was already frowning at this time. He knew that the number of votes against the merchants had been poached a large part of it. He couldn't help but feel annoyed. If Fei Hong had not been before, he would definitely have an overwhelming advantage. From 100,000 to 67,000, he would have established an overwhelming number of votes since then.

But now...

Li Dongyang held his breath and waited for the final result.

Liu Jin said slowly at this time: "Li Dongyang, I got 60,000 votes..."

It's only more than 60,000...but...it's more than 60,000?

Everyone's heart almost jumped up.

Liu Jin's voice continued to sound in this quiet hall: "Sixty-seven,123 votes."

Buzz...

The whole hall was in an uproar.

It is 67,123, and it is only a tiny difference between Wang Hua's 67,344, and a tiny difference between the votes.

At this time, Liu Jin finished reading all the votes, smiled on his face, and said, "This public recommendation, the prince won the victory. All the votes counted were repeated by the Lijian, the Censorate, the Hanlin Academy and the six ministries, and there was no forgery."

Bang……

Li Dongyang finally couldn't stand it anymore.

He lost...

He felt a moment of dizziness, and finally couldn't support it, and he fell to the ground with a slump.

He never thought that he would lose like this, only more than 200 votes were missing, but his life was a turn of world.

His brain buzzed. After three dynasties, it suddenly became empty and...it suddenly turned into jokes.

He felt extremely aggrieved in his heart, and he was really unwilling to accept it!

But... I am willing to accept the loss of the bet, can you not admit defeat? After several months, it has touched the hearts of so many people. I nodded in the previous public recommendation rules, and I am open, fair and just. Even if I refuse to accept the loss at this time, will Your Majesty be willing? Will Ye Chunqiu be willing? Will most students in the world be willing?

He couldn't afford to lose, but he had to admit defeat.

For a moment, he felt completely lost, and all his efforts turned into dirt.

On the other side, there was a person who was even worse than Li Dongyang. Fei Hong covered his heart and felt very painful.

It's over, it's all over.

He knew better than anyone what he was going to face.

Both myself and Mr. Li carry the hopes of countless scholars and students. These anti-Shanghai scholars and students put almost all the hopes of maintaining tradition on Mr. Li. This time, they can clearly win, not only win, but also win. It is precisely because of myself that he has divided more than 30,000 votes that led to Li Dongyang's defeat.

What’s ridiculous is that I was still secretly happy with the sound of abandoning Li Baobao before, thinking that I still had a glimmer of hope.

But now, it's over, everything is over, what will countless disappointed students think? Countless anti-Shanghai scholars are afraid that at this moment, they are already in anger. They must vent. So, who is the biggest responsibility for Li Gong's defeat this time?

Although the prince and the Duke of Zhenguo have great responsibilities, the prince has become the chief minister and the Grand Secretary. Who dares to make trouble in front of him? There is no need to mention Duke of Zhenguo. Almost Fei Hong could imagine that by then, the huge anger that would be coming from the sea would be for whom.

It must be himself. Even Mr. Li would put all the responsibilities on him in order to shirk the responsibility of defeating the election.

It's over, it's all over.

Fei Hong's body was shaking and even burst into tears.

Now, he still has something he doesn't understand, but he never expected that he would eventually be a gun envoy for Wang Hua and Ye Chunqiu.

His body was trembling, because he was standing close to Li Dongyang. When he saw Li Dongyang sitting on the ground, he quickly wanted to step forward and look at Li Dongyang as if he was flattering, trying to help him up.

However, Li Dongyang's eyes suddenly turned cold and he stared at Fei Hong with a terrifying look. His gaze was so terrible, like a trapped beast, opening his bloody mouth and revealing his sharp fangs.

Fei Hong had an inexplicable cold war and found that he was in tears.

Of course he wanted to explain, can I blame me for all this? Why did I blame me for it? All of this was a conspiracy named Ye, and it was Wang Hua's vicious plan. If you want to blame, you can only blame Mr. Li for being too careless.

But he knew very well that such an explanation was of no use, no matter how little it was. Someone had to take the blame, either Li Gong or him.
