254.Chapter 254: The hearts of the people are shaken
"This ...... What kind of tea is this, how is it different from what I used to drink, faint, and with a little fragrance, it is really delicious. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After Cheng Chumo finished speaking, he picked up the teapot and poured himself another cup, Tang Zhou saw this, and smiled lightly, the tea of the Tang Dynasty is still boiled so far, and things like green onions, ginger, and salt will be added in the process of cooking, which is naturally good if you drink it in the hall, but if you want to drink it as a drink in summer, it is a little difficult to swallow.
For this reason, Tang Zhou fried the tea leaves, so that there was not much difference from the tea leaves of later generations.
"Mengding tea."
Cheng Chumo had already drunk two cups in a row, and when he heard Tang Zhou say that it was Mengding tea, he couldn't help but be stunned: "I also have a lot of this tea in my house, how is it different from yours here?" ”
Tang Zhou smiled: "Because I processed it again, it is especially suitable for drinking in summer, not only to quench thirst, but also to have a strong fragrance." ”
Cheng Chu nodded silently, he agreed with Tang Zhou's words very much, and after he nodded, he suddenly smiled: "How do you process this tea, send me some, my father likes to drink tea very much, you know." ”
Hearing Cheng Chumo's words, Tang Zhou laughed secretly in his heart, Cheng Yanjin likes to drink tea, his favorite is drinking, so he thinks that the reason why Cheng Chumo wants some tea may be just to show off.
Show off to your powerful friends.
"When the matter is done, I'll give you a few catties."
"Brother Tang, you still don't believe me, I said to help you do it, I will definitely help you do it."
Tang Zhou smiled: "I naturally believe in you, but I have only made a few catties of rough food, and I have already promised Princess Danyang, if you want some first, I am afraid that you need to obtain the consent of Princess Danyang, it is better to do this, you go to the Ancient Pavilion, explain this matter to Princess Danyang, Princess Danyang is not a stingy person, if she says that she is willing to share some of you first, I naturally have no problem here." ”
Cheng Chumo heard that Princess Danyang had already occupied it, so he naturally didn't dare to entangle it anymore, but the tea was really delicious, and after he drank it today, he couldn't help but want to drink it again, so he was worried again and again, so he had to agree to Tang Zhou's suggestion and go to the Gu Tiao Pavilion.
After Cheng Chumo left, Tang Zhou went straight to the bedroom, Lin Qingsu has been bored by the noise these days, so he rarely even goes out of the door, seeing Tang Zhou coming back, he hurriedly asked: "How is it, did Cheng Chumo agree?" ”
"He'll say yes."
Lin Qingsu still believed in her husband's business, so she didn't ask much, she just said with some curiosity: "The news that Ma Qingda heard is indeed true, but there is no evidence, can it be spread like this?" ”
"Of course it can play a role, the people are ignorant and easy to be swayed by public opinion, for example, Li Xiaogong was forced to death by me, there are many flaws, but after it comes out, some people believe that after the real cause of Li Xiaogong's death is spread, some people will definitely believe it, so that people's hearts will be shaken, and the previous public opinion will naturally be untenable."
Speaking of this, Tang Zhou showed a light smile again, public opinion can shake people's hearts, but it is difficult to say whether this matter can be completely resolved, so he left a follow-up move, especially asked Cheng Chumo to invite Princess Danyang, and he believed that Princess Danyang's wisdom and wisdom would definitely be able to hear his true purpose from Cheng Chumo's words, not to agree to give some tea to Cheng Chumo, but to invite him to come to the house.
--------------------------------------------
However, it was said that after Cheng Chumo left the Tanghou Mansion, he did not go directly to the Gu Tiao Pavilion, but first tried to find a way to spread the news that Tang Zhou told him.
Since he wants Tang Zhou's good things, it is naturally the most important thing to do things first, so that even if he goes to Princess Danyang, he will have more confidence, right?
Cheng Chumo, a gentleman, may not have much ability to govern the country, but his ability to pass on gossip is very great, and in one morning, the real cause of Li Xiaogong's death spread in Chang'an City.
The news was so explosive that it spread with astonishing speed, first in the market, then in Fireworks Alley, then in the palaces of various princes, and finally soon to the palace.
After Li Shimin heard the news, he was shocked in his heart, but when he thought of the number of wives and concubines in his cousin's backyard, he felt natural, but after pondering for a long time, he felt that although this news was true, it would damage the reputation of their royal family to some extent.
But he thinks it's inappropriate like this, and there is no way, the Tang Dynasty is open, and few people are convicted for their words, the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government can say it, and the people naturally have the right to speak.
And this kind of thing, the more the court tries to suppress it, the more convincing it is that this matter is true, on the contrary, if it is allowed to spread, it is doubtful.
After Li Shimin thought about it like this, he could only sigh, hoping that this matter would not make a big fuss.
And that afternoon, when the news had spread, Cheng Yanjin came to the Gu Tiao Pavilion excitedly.
Princess Danyang saw Cheng Chumo and asked, "Now the news about Li Xiaogong in Chang'an City was passed on by Tang Zhou?" ”
Cheng Chumo was taken aback, secretly wondering why this Princess Danyang was so powerful, but although he was surprised, he couldn't admit it, and shook his head: "Princess Danyang is really good at laughing, and I will spread it there." ”
Princess Danyang snorted coldly: "Tang Zhou's reputation is low these days, he is bound to find a way to reverse the situation, and today you are the only one who has been to Tanghou Mansion, not who are you?" ”
Cheng Chumo saw that Princess Danyang had guessed so much, and he was suddenly a little panicked in his heart, but he still gritted his teeth: "I just went to Brother Tang's mansion to have a sip of tea, where I know this, and besides, Brother Tang was grounded in the mansion, how could I know the real cause of Li Xiaogong's death?" ”
Seeing that Cheng Chumo refused to admit it at this time, Princess Danyang admired Tang Zhou a little in her heart, in this world, real friends are rare, and many so-called friends will betray themselves at a critical moment, but Cheng Chumo is full of loopholes, but he refuses to betray Tang Zhou, which makes Princess Danyang very happy for him Tang Zhou.
And she was also amazed by Tang Zhou's method, although it was only a very simple fact, but after it was spread like this, the direction of public opinion would soon change.
Because there were too many flaws in public opinion before, Li Xiaogong, a military general who killed people like hemp, would die because of the events of that day?
Thinking like this, Princess Danyang showed a slight smile on the corner of her mouth and asked, "Since it wasn't from you, why did you come to my Ancient Tune Pavilion today?" ”
Hearing this, Cheng Chumo's heart was a little relieved, and he said with a smile: "That's the case, Brother Tang has good tea at home, but he said that you had already booked it Princess Danyang, and I like the tightness of the tea, so I want to ask Her Royal Highness the princess, can you give me some for me to taste first?" ”
