I'm a marquis in Datang

Only then did Xiao Li stand up obediently.

Li Yuan said: "Arrange someone to deliver the decree!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Xiao Li left the main hall to arrange for someone to deliver the decree to the East Palace.This decree was passed on to the Eastern Palace in the shortest possible time.When Li Jiancheng received Li Yuan's reprimand, although he accepted Li Yuan's verbal instructions, in fact, Li Jiancheng was extremely angry in his heart.

He was reprimanded again.

His father, because of an outsider, repeatedly reprimanded him and targeted him.Now even if he opened a tea shop, his father and emperor forbade him from getting involved, which made Li Jiancheng very angry.

Wei Zheng sat below, sighing inwardly.

Everything was caused by not killing Du Qi.If Li Jiancheng followed Du Qi's advice and killed Du Qi directly when he summoned Du Qi for the second time, nothing would happen today.

But now, Du Qi has grown up and become popular, and it will be too late to deal with Du Qi.

For this reason, Donggong suffered too much loss.

Wei Zheng took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the matter has come to an end, and we must not conflict with Du Qi again. At least on the surface, we must not let His Majesty know that we are conflicting with Du Qi."

"Otherwise, things won't work."

"This time, it should be that Cai Bida spread the news that he was backed by the Prince's Mansion. As a result, the news became known. In addition, Du Qitian went to the palace to meet His Majesty, soliciting rumors in front of the Emperor."

Wei Zhengdao: "That's why His Majesty's anger and the fact that the crown prince was reprimanded came about."

"Damn it, damn it!"

Li Jiancheng's face was full of anger.

His emotions cannot be calmed down.

On his forehead, there are even more blue veins appearing.He gritted his teeth, and said coldly: "Under the current situation, the emperor has reprimanded me again. In the end, am I the emperor's son, or he, Du Qi, is the emperor's son."

Wei Zheng comforted: "Naturally, you are His Majesty's son. But now Du Qi is deeply appreciated by His Majesty, and deeply liked by His Majesty. To be an enemy of Du Qi at this time is to offend His Majesty."

"That's why I suggest that you temporarily avoid the edge and don't provoke Du Qi."

"In particular, His Majesty has already issued an order for the third time, and again and again, if His Majesty is offended again, the consequences will be unimaginable. Your Royal Highness, Du Qi has won His Majesty's favor by relying on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Gods."

"After a period of time, when his writing is finished, His Majesty's grace will be gone."

"So we just need to wait a little longer. As for Cai Bida's tea shop, we can only ignore it for the time being. It was originally decided that His Highness will participate in promotional activities, and the East Palace will arrange people to take Cai Bida to visit the officials of various ministries. Come on, but don’t worry about it for the time being, the people in the Eastern Palace can’t get involved.”

Wei Zheng said: "If the people in the Eastern Palace are allowed to continue to participate, and the news is sent to His Majesty again, in the end, I'm afraid the consequences will be unbearable."

Li Jiancheng sighed in his heart when he heard this.

The first tea house was a way of making money that he opened with great difficulty.But now, this source of income is about to be cut off, and Li Jiancheng feels very helpless.

Wei Zheng sighed: "His Royal Highness, we don't need to worry about this for the time being. We just need to let it go and watch the situation develop quietly to see what kind of scene it will be in the end. In short, we will not care about Cai Bida's own ability next. .”

Li Jiancheng said: "Now, this is the only way to go."

Wei Zhengdao: "The humble staff will immediately make arrangements to inform Cai Bida of the news. Only when Cai Bida knows about it can he respond in advance."

"Go!"

Li Jiancheng nodded.

Wei Zheng turned and left, returning to his office room.He didn't notify in person, but arranged for someone to notify the news.When the news was sent to Cai Bida, Cai Bida was stunned.Cai Bida asked the person who sent the letter why, but the person who sent the letter didn't know anything.

This made Cai Bida completely confused.

what's up!

Why all of a sudden, Donggong promised to help, but now there is nothing.Not only did the prince not come to participate in the promotional activities, even the promise of the East Palace to send someone to take him to visit the officials of the DPRK and China was abandoned.

This situation disrupted Cai Bida's arrangement.

Everything is messed up.

Originally, the No. [-] Tea House had hoped for the help of Donggong in order to break the deadlock.But now, Dong Gong is unwilling to help, and everything cannot work in his No. [-] tea house.

Cai Bida was unwilling, so he took a deep breath and said: "This matter is wrong, I have to ask the truth. I am going to see the prince about this matter, and ask the prince to give an explanation."

"what ever!"

The messenger, speak up.

Immediately, the messenger turned around and left, ignoring Cai Bida who was talking.

Cai Bida tidied up a bit, and took a carriage to the East Palace.When he arrived at the East Palace, he asked the concierge to report. Although the concierge did, the person who finally met Cai Bida was not Li Jiancheng, but Wei Zheng.

After Li Jiancheng received the news, he was unwilling to see Cai Bida, so he asked Wei Zheng to handle the matter.When Cai Bida saw Wei Zheng, he said respectfully, "Wei Xima, I hope to see the crown prince."

Wei Zheng said: "The prince is busy and has no time to see you. If you have any questions, just tell me. But I will answer you one by one if I know anything."

Cai Bida frowned.

He is not someone who doesn't understand, once he heard Wei Zheng's words, he knew that this was Li Jiancheng

s arrangement.Li Jiancheng didn't want to see him, so he let Wei Zheng handle the matter.

Cai Bida suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and solemnly said: "Wei Xima, the reason why I came here is because I just received an order from the East Palace. Earlier, His Royal Highness promised to personally participate in the tea promotion activities of the No. [-] Tea House, but now Is no longer going."

"In addition, His Royal Highness promised to arrange someone to take me to meet the officials in the court, so that the first tea house can get more orders and open up the situation."

"Now, it's gone."

"If everything is no longer fulfilled, it is very likely that the first tea house will be difficult to operate."

Cai Bida said: "Wei Xima, why is this? It is obvious that now, there are better resources to use, and there are opportunities to make a lot of money and break the monopoly of the best tea in the world, but why do you want to cut off your own arm?"

Wei Zheng's complexion suddenly turned cold.

Now that he cut off his own arm like this, he didn't want to see it either.When the matter developed to this point, even Wei Zheng didn't expect it, and he had no way to reverse the situation.

Cai Bida was not reconciled, so he continued: "Wei Xima, today's tea, whether in Chang'an or the entire Tang Dynasty, is dominated by Du Qi's family."

"It is extremely difficult to break this deadlock. If we do not break the deadlock, it will be impossible for our No. [-] tea house to develop. And the only chance is to borrow the name of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"This is the only chance."
