Chapter 31 The palace is suspicious
South of Jinling City, the top of Qinglong Mountain.
Li Yu was standing in a flat place at the moment, and in front of him was a handicraft workshop that had been set up.
"Alright, get these already packed cigarette rolls to sell in the store, remember, a pack of cigarettes is at least a tael of silver." Li Yu waved his hand and ordered the servants to carry the cigarette rolls that had been made down the mountain.
Li Yu has been on the mountain for seven days, and within seven days, the workshop has been built, a batch of cigarette rolls has been made, and Tang Hong has also followed him and served as a foreman for him.
"I don't know if this batch of cigarettes can be sold at a good price." Tang Hong wiped the sweat from his head, and his eyes swept over the cigarette rolls that had been carried down the mountain.
"Don't worry, you must be able to, by the way, let you make a special cigarette for your father, have you done it?" Li Yu looked at Tang Hong beside him, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"It's done, it's already packing, and the words "special offering" are written on it, but I don't know if His Majesty likes to smoke this kind of thing." Tang Hong said hesitantly.
"It should be possible, this thing is very fresh, and I have put a lot of effort into the process." Li Yu rubbed his hands, his face excited.
"Sixth Highness, it seems that you are not lonely here at all." At this moment, Zhou Zong walked up from the bottom of the mountain, and seeing that he was sweating profusely, he did not let the servants carry him up, but climbed up on foot.
"Zhou Situ, did you smoke the cigarette roll you took?" Li Yu greeted Zhou Zong with a smile.
"I smoked it, this thing is really good, it tastes very fragrant, and it can relieve tension, it seems that there are medicinal ingredients in it, if you smoke it for a long time, although it may be addictive, it will definitely soothe your emotions and keep people calm." Zhou Zong replied and walked in front of Li Yu.
"Are you so free today, come and see me make cigarettes?" Li Yu waved his hand and asked Tang Hong to continue to supervise the work, get the cigarette rolls of the agents who had done it well, and prepare to send them to the palace for Li Jing to taste.
"Sixth Highness, take a step to speak." Zhou Zong frowned, seeing that there were many people coming and going, so he whispered to Li Yu.
Seeing Zhou Zong's expression, Li Yu nodded, pulled Zhou Zong to the tree in the distance, and stopped: "If you have anything to say, Lord Zhou, just say it directly." ”
"Someone in the court accuses you, you should have thought about it, but you started a deal, Your Majesty has already known that at this time, you are a little angry, but you haven't flareed up yet, Your Highness Six, I don't know what you want to do?" Zhou Zong frowned and whispered to Li Yu.
"If I am asked to make up for my losses within three months, but I am not allowed to do anything, wouldn't that be waiting to be beheaded?" Li Yu was very angry in his heart, but his face was still light, and he said indifferently: "Forget it, Da Situ, please go back, you just don't know what to do, just do what you have to do, I will take care of the things, and on the other hand, the cigarette rolls I want to send to the palace must be given to Your Majesty to taste in person, not through the hands of others." ”
Zhou Zong nodded, of course he knew Li Yu's thoughts, so he turned around, ordered someone to take two packs of cigarette rolls from Tang Hong, went down the mountain by himself, and sent cigarette rolls to Li Jing.
Cigarette rolls are something that Li Yu was familiar with in his previous life, he was an absolute smoker back then, and he believed that it would not be long before people in the capital would definitely like this kind of cigarettes.
Li Yu expected that in about half a month, in the streets and alleys of the capital, people with some money bought a few packs of cigarettes, and they smoked very comfortably.
Even some princes and ministers have bought a lot of them and are full of praise.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, but there was news in the palace that Li Jing smoked the cigarette cigarette given by Li Yu and couldn't afford to get sick.
When the news reached the mountain, Li Yu was shocked.
The person who sent the news was Miss Zhou.
Originally, Zhou Zong wanted to come in person, but Miss Zhou said that she wanted to come out to relax, and came directly to tell Li Yu about it, and Li Yu was on the cusp at the moment, and Zhou Zong was not very good to come, so Miss Zhou came to tell Li Yu the news.
Looking at Miss Zhou's face, Li Yu's heart seemed to be drunk, but he did not forget that the person who gave Li Jing the cigarette roll this time was Zhou Zong.
"It seems that something is wrong, the person who sent the cigarettes is your father, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this." Li Yu spoke out the doubts in his heart.
"Dad said the same thing, but he didn't find out anything wrong with the cigarette rolls, so the palace didn't do anything to Dad for the time being." Miss Zhou frowned, and when she thought of this question, she was a little overwhelmed.
After thinking about it, Li Yu took a few steps back and forth, and said, "Go to Uncle Huang and ask him to inquire in person, the current situation should be deliberately caused by someone." ”
There are many people who are attached to Li Jingsui in the princes and ministers of the court, after all, he is the emperor's younger brother, and he can be regarded as one person under ten thousand people in the center of power.
"Well, Dad thinks so too, but now there seem to be a lot of spies around the mansion, and Dad has difficulty moving, so he hasn't gone to King Qi." Miss Zhou's little hands were twisted on her clothes, and her expression was somewhat shy.
"You go back to the house first, I'll go down the mountain here, and discuss with the emperor's uncle whether I can enter the palace to show my father what kind of illness he has." Li Yu said after a moment of silence.
Li Yu understands that there is absolutely no problem with cigarette rolls, and if Li Jing is in a situation, it is very likely that someone has secretly manipulated and become ill after he inhales his cigarette rolls, which seems to be caused by smoking cigarettes.
Miss Zhou didn't want to leave, but after listening to what Li Yu said solemnly, she knew that she couldn't delay Li Yu's business, so she left in a huff.
After Miss Zhou left, Li Yu immediately changed his clothes and went down the mountain.
Of course, Li Yu knew that there must be secret agents around him, but he was not afraid of someone following him now.
He came down from the mountain, got horses at the post station at the bottom of the mountain, and went straight to the city.
Soon came to Li Jingsui's mansion, and Li Yu entered Li Jingsui's mansion through the servants.
When I came to the hall, I saw Li Jingsui sitting in the hall, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask for peace: "Uncle Huang is above, my little nephew has kowtowed to you." ”
Li Jingsui grabbed Li Yu and said with a smile: "You kid, don't play with me, let's talk, what is the matter coming to me." ”
Li Jing went straight to the point, and there was no mud and water at all, which made Li Yu quite happy in his heart.
"Uncle Huang, my father has been unwell in the past two days, you should know it." After Li Yu was pressed on the chair by Li Jing, he spoke.
"Of course I know the Dao, and I heard that you have something to do with Zhou Zong." Li Jingsui's eyes flickered and smiled slightly.
Hearing Li Jingsui go straight to the topic, Li Yu didn't go around the bend, took out the cigarette roll he produced in his arms, felt it, and handed it to Li Jingsui: "Uncle Huang, you taste it, is there a problem." ”
Li Jingsui was stunned for a moment, took the cigarette roll, took out one, sniffed it under his nose, and couldn't help but have a gleam in his eyes: "Okay, this is even better than the ones sold outside." ”
