Emperor Chongzhen had already returned to his seat and sat down. Looking at this scene, he actually felt a little emotional. As a person from later generations, it is natural to understand the importance of public opinion.
Many times, ordinary people actually have no opinions of their own and they believe whatever others say.
A simple example is Leonard Li's slogan "equal distribution of land and exemption of grain tax". Anyone with a brain would know that this is absolutely impossible, something that has never happened in any dynasty. But they were willing to believe it, so they all opened their doors to welcome the King of Rebellion.
Of course, this is also related to their difficult situation and their desire to change their situation and have a better future. If Emperor Chongzhen had not traveled through time, the corruption in the late Ming Dynasty would definitely not be comparable to Leonard Li's promise. But Emperor Chongzhen, who had traveled through time, naturally knew how to change so that the people of the world could live better.
This requires a war of public opinion with Leonard Li and winning the hearts of the people, just like the scene before us, which is to change the people's sympathy for Shanxi merchants. Otherwise, if the rear is unstable, it will be difficult to fight in the front.
