Chapter 39: The Power of the People

Li Yu was not surprised by Tang Hong's performance, the leaflet was actually just some details about the dealings between His Royal Highness and the figures in the army, but more of it was just some rumors from the outside world.

If such a thing falls to the people, it will naturally be infinitely magnified by false rumors.

As for saying that it will be like this, it is actually inseparable from Li Yu.

In the leaflet, Li Yu used the method of hiding his head poems, and read a passage horizontally, which actually formed some rumors about His Highness.

It's just that how can Tang Hong think of these details?

Tang Hong couldn't think of it, but it didn't mean that the people couldn't think of it, and because of this, there were already people in the capital at the moment, and it was rumoring to be boiling.

There have been a lot of rumors on the streets and alleys in the past few days, first the rumors of Li Yu, then the scandal between Li Yu and the eldest lady of the Zhou family, and then the rumors of Li Yu on the banks of the Qinhuai River.

However, these are not enough to worry the people of the capital, because these are just after-dinner conversations.

However, today's leaflet broke the tranquility of the capital and plunged the huge Jinling City into an atmosphere of panic and rumors.

"Bang!" A muffled sound came from His Royal Highness's bedroom.

The palace maid who was favored by him last night didn't even wear her clothes, and she ran out of the room in a panic.

"Bastard, is this the bastard thing that made it?" His Royal Highness crumpled the flyer in his hand with all his might, gritted his teeth and smashed it on the ground, and then slammed his fist on the coffee table next to him.

"Your Highness, please calm your anger, I don't know for the time being, but we are investigating!" Mr. Zheng stood in front of His Highness at this moment, looked at His Highness who was not wearing a coat, and said with a solemn face.

"If I catch this rumor-monger, I will swallow him alive." Li Hongji's eyes seemed to be on fire, and his teeth clenched.

"Perhaps...... This matter is related to the Six Highnesses. Mr. Zheng shook the feather fan lightly and said with a solemn face.

"Sixth? He has such means? Li Hongji looked at Mr. Zheng in disbelief.

"Besides him, who else in the capital dares to compete with you now, and there are such rumors without warning, it seems that His Royal Highness the Sixth has smelled something." Mr. Zheng narrowed his eyes, and when the morning sun first appeared, it seemed a little unfathomable.

"It can't be him, it may be Li Jingsui's old fox." Li Hongji gritted his teeth and analyzed.

"It's hard to say, but Your Highness, this is not the time to be angry, we have to find a way to minimize the rumors." Mr. Zheng was very calm-headed and first put forward the root of the matter.

Mr. Zheng's words seemed to touch Li Hongji, and he quickly put on his clothes, walked out with Mr. Zheng, and said, "Do you need to send someone to collect those things?" ”

"It must be confiscated, but it cannot be destroyed, and it must be shown to His Majesty." Mr. Zheng reminded Li Hongji.

Li Hongji frowned, he looked at Mr. Zheng with some astonishment, as if he felt that he was pushing himself into the fire pit.

"Some things want to be covered, if it is the opposite, it becomes the opposite of things, you take it yourself to your majesty, it will naturally show you that you have a good feeling in your heart, and you will solve this situation." Mr. Zheng still has a smile on his face and a very calm attitude.

Li Hongji took a deep breath, he finally understood Mr. Zheng's intentions, and couldn't help but trust and rely on his strategist a little more.

Just when Li Hongji was having a headache about the flyer, Li Jingsui's hearty laughter came from inside the Qi King's Mansion.

"The boss is in trouble, this trick is too yin, I really don't know if this is the sixth man's means." Li Hongji leaned back in the chair, his face excited.

"It seems that the prince is very happy today." An official wearing an official uniform who looked like he was in an important position in the court stood beside Li Jingsui with a deferential look.

"The boss is going to make a fool of himself, even if this game is solved by him, I think he is in a catastrophe, if he has the heart to calculate him, he can't escape." Li Jingsui smiled coldly, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, took a sip, and then blew a breath to soothe his body.

"I just don't know what Your Highness will think, and what Your Highness will do." The official bowed and smiled, his tone rather cautious and calm.

"Heiji, look at it, the boss will definitely show those things to the imperial brother himself, this trick may be effective at the beginning, as for what happens later, we can only wait and see what happens." Li Jingsui narrowed his eyes, gently tapped his fingers on the armrest of his chair, and gloated with a grim face.

Today, the happiest person is naturally Li Yu, because the rumors in the city no longer involve himself and Miss Zhou, because today's Jinling City, the biggest news is the matter of His Royal Highness.

After breakfast, Li Yu did not go down the mountain, but honestly began to prepare the spices that Tang Hong had prepared for him on the mountain.

These things were put into tobacco by Li Yu, and he wanted to use this time to get new varieties of cigarettes out and increase his business income.

The period of March is not long, and if he fails to achieve the expected goal, he will still be guilty, so Li Yu is doubly diligent.

Li Yu's efforts were not in vain, and within a day, he had dissolved all the spices into the tobacco, and the first batch of imitation cigars had been baked.

I tried two cigars, but they looked the same, and although the taste was slightly different from the real cigar, it did have some flavor when smoked.

The biggest feature is that after ignition, if you don't deliberately extinguish it, the cigarette butt will not extinguish on its own, let alone continue to burn out.

This time, Li Yu operated all the ingredients by himself, and because of this, he was not afraid that he would be imitated.

At this moment, the moon has set in the west, Li Yu let out a long breath, looked at the first batch of cigars packaged, and waited for tomorrow when they were transported down the mountain to bring him a larger income, Tang Hong's figure came into Li Yu's eyes.

"What's going on in the capital?" Li Yu looked at Tang Hong, who was walking quickly, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Those leaflets, whatever they were, were collected by His Highness's people, and it seems that they want to destroy those leaflets." Tang Hong said a little nervously.

"Oh? They moved quickly, and I underestimated their energy. Li Yu narrowed his eyes and stared at the moon in the sky, a smile on his lips.

"Sixth Highness, if they destroy those leaflets, should we print another batch?" Tang Hong frowned and asked Li Yu, he felt that Li Yu was very incomprehensible now, and the things he had sprinkled were collected by others, but he was not nervous at all.

"No, did they send someone to find out who distributed those leaflets?" Li Yu asked faintly.
