Detailed outline:
Gu Quan, the chief "scapegoat consultant" of a crisis public relations company, specializes in designing apology strategies for wealthy celebrities, diverting attention, and finding scapegoats. He passed through Gong Douwen and became Gu Quan, the most inconspicuous little eunuch around the queen, but every time the conspiracy was exposed, he would be pushed out to take the blame. This time, it happened that the queen poisoned the concubine and the prince was defeated, and the original owner was about to be pushed out to Lingchi.
Gu Quan's professional instinct activated instantly:
The first stage: emergency stop loss. Instead of panicking and admitting his guilt, he logically and logically exaggerated in front of the emperor: "The slave did secretly change the medicinal materials, but because the medicinal materials were damp, he was afraid of affecting the efficacy of the medicine and was punished. He had no idea that it was poisonous! The slave is willing to die for the crime of oversight, but please be clear to your majesty, who could let the slave come into contact with such a strange poison?" He downgraded "treason" to "dereliction of duty" and threw back the doubt.
Phase 2: Shift focus. Using his knowledge of the people in the palace, he threw out several half-truths and half-false clues, suggesting that other forces might take the opportunity to frame the queen. At the same time, a "perfect solution" is provided to the emperor: severely punish himself (the little eunuch) to anger the common people, secretly continue to investigate the real culprit, and protect the face of the royal family.
Phase Three: Build Value. After the incident, although he was demoted to the Department of Hard Labor, he began to provide "invisible services" to the palace masters: he helped the favored concubine design a script of "being framed but magnanimous"; he helped the disgraced concubine plan a turnaround character that "offends the emperor but actually pleads for the people". He became the "script doctor" in the undercurrent of the harem, specializing in dealing with various shady crises. He used "professional scapegoating" and "image reshaping" techniques to survive in the cracks and accumulate resources.
