Chapter 69: Du Chengfeng sealed the Viscount of Kaiguo County

The Zheng family's wooing is just the beginning, and Zheng Hongwen's visit today is just a temptation, and he has taken a gentle approach.

He didn't expect Du Chengfeng's final attitude to be so tough, which made him feel for a while that Du Chengfeng had no intention of talking to him from the beginning, maybe he was just playing with him and trying to trick him at the beginning.

I have to say that Zheng Hongwen is the truth.

Zheng Hongwen was thinking, since Du Chengfeng is so uncooperative and unacquainted, maybe he really wants to use some extraordinary means if necessary, as his father said?

If he doesn't strike first, if he is won by other families or forces, then he will lose more than he gains.

Zheng Hongwen is preparing to secretly plan here, and some other forces have also begun to act secretly, but Du Chengfeng doesn't know it for the time being.

It is said that after Li Shimin returned to the Ganlu Palace, he immediately asked people to reward Du Chengfeng.

Father is right, he must make a statement to Du Chengfeng as soon as possible and appease him first.

Otherwise, it will really be as my father said, and then it will completely chill people's hearts.

In order to show his sincerity, Li Shimin also deliberately asked his chief eunuch and Li Xiaogong to go to Du Chengfeng's mansion to upload the decree.

Let Li Xiaogong go to pass the decree together, which obviously means to be close to each other.

Originally, Li Shimin also wanted to announce this reward to the world, so that the people of the Tang Dynasty would know Du Chengfeng's exploits, which could also further improve Du Chengfeng's status among the people.

But suddenly I thought: Du Chengfeng's four strategies for controlling locusts and movable type printing are not suitable for announcing to the world at this time.

Once Li Shimin makes the news of the locust plague public, the fear of the people of the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years will definitely cause great turmoil among the people.

The people's fear of locust plague has been ingrained for a long time. It was the same for many court officials.

Many people even think that if they eat plague insects, they will offend God. The people were afraid of angering the gods, so they had to turn to heaven for help when the locust plague came, but despite this, the locust plague was still rampant every time, and it had no effect.

Before Du Chengfeng's four strategies for controlling locusts, even Li Shimin himself once thought that the locust plague was a punishment from heaven.

Therefore, it is conceivable that once the news of the locust plague is announced by the imperial court, it can be imagined how much impact it will have on the people.

Since Du Chengfeng's four strategies for controlling locusts proved to be effective, the imperial court has not been able to carry out effective implementation because it has considered how to stabilize the people's minds.

In Li Shimin's opinion, this matter has to find a chance for Du Chengfeng to solve it.

In a sense, only Du Chengfeng is professional in this regard.

As for movable type printing, Li Shimin understood even more after he understood the key point: it was a powerful weapon against famous families.

Now that his foundation is still unstable, he has internal and external troubles, and the power of famous families is still not to be underestimated, so he can only do it quietly. This matter is still not possible for the time being.

Alas! Li Shimin let out a long sigh. A person stood quietly at the door of the Manna Temple, looking up at the vast sky outside, his heart full of helplessness. I hold the vast country of Datang in my hands, but I have a deep sense of powerlessness.

It seems that the ancestors really have a point. The so-called fighting the country is easy and it is difficult to defend the country, but Li Shimin believes that he will be able to overcome all obstacles.

Not long after Zheng Hongwen left the mansion, Li Xiaogong took the chief eunuch Gao Gonggong and hurriedly came to Du Chengfeng's mansion. Teenage Classmates Network

After knowing that Li Xiaogong was the prince, the family members immediately went to inform Du Chengfeng after arranging the two in the living room.

Du Chengfeng had never seen Gao Gonggong, but he was a little surprised to see Li Xiaogong come to the door in person.

After all, he is still just a commoner, and at best he can only be regarded as an ordinary businessman.

It can be regarded as an honor to let the famous prince of the Tang Dynasty visit twice.

However, Li Xiaogong didn't know about his newly bought yard, so he thought that the shopkeeper Lu should have told him.

Du Chengfeng walked into the living room quickly and greeted: "The prince came to visit in person, and the kid asked the prince not to be surprised." ”

As for Gao Gonggong, he was ignored by Du Chengfeng as a matter of course.

Li Xiaogong said politely: "The little brother who rides the wind is now a busy man, which is understandable and understandable. ”

Li Xiaogong came to his house for the first time, and Du Chengfeng said in his heart that he couldn't slack off others.

glanced at the table in the living room, and saw a few plates of ordinary pastries on it, thinking that Li Xiaogong had already eaten a lot as a prince.

After thinking about it, he summoned Yahuan, who was waiting on the side, and ordered: "You go to the table in my study and make a pot of my newly made spring tea and present it to the prince and this father-in-law." ”

"Yes, young master." Yahuan happily trotted to make tea.

Du Chengfeng also sat down on a sofa opposite Li Xiaogong. The furniture on Du Chengfeng's house has been transformed by him these days.

According to the modern style, the carpenter remade it and put a thick soft cushion on it, which is much more comfortable to sit on than the current couch of Datang.

"The prince came to visit today, I don't know if it's ......?" Du Chengfeng asked after sitting down.

Li Xiaogong waved his hand, pointed to the father-in-law next to him and said, "Little brother Chengfeng, this king is just an accompaniment today." This is the right one. This is the emperor's personal eunuch, the chief eunuch of the eunuch Gao Gonggong, and Gao Gonggong came here to deliver the decree. ”

After Li Xiaogong finished speaking, he looked at Du Chengfeng with a smile on his face. At that time, the emperor decided to send himself to Du Chengfeng's mansion to deliver the decree together, and Li Xiaogong agreed very much.

It's just that he didn't know where he lived in Chang'an, and the helpless person still asked the shopkeeper Lu to find out.

When Du Chengfeng heard this, he hurriedly stood up, and said sincerely to Gonggong Gao: "This father-in-law, the kid didn't know the identity of his father-in-law just now, please forgive me for being slack." ”

How to say that this is also a celebrity around Li Shimin, so the etiquette Du Chengfeng still has to give.

Moreover, most of the eunuchs are hard-working people, and for some reason, most of them are psychologically deformed.

Such people cannot look at them with sympathy, but with normal eyes.

In this way, they will feel that they are still the same as ordinary people, but in a different way of life.

Therefore, Du Chengfeng's eyes looking at Gao Gonggong were very calm, at least he would not let the other party feel the difference between looking at Li Xiaogong and looking at him.

Du Chengfeng's eyes made Gao Gonggong feel very comfortable, and he accepted Du Chengfeng's apology gladly.

When Gonggong Gao came, Li Shimin deliberately advised: This Du Chengfeng is a rare demonic genius in Datang now, and he is the lucky star of Datang.
