Afterwards, Wang Shu called a few confidants to explain.

These people quickly went to Bianjing City and began to spread the story of Prince Zhao Zhen's invention of ice making, and specially distributed it to Ding Wei, Cao Yong, Wang Qinruo and other people in the mansion.

...

evening.

Ding Wei returned to the mansion and began to throw things in anger, shouting in anger: "It's so unreasonable, it's simply unreasonable... The prince was too bullying. He agreed that as long as Kou Zhun returned to the court to serve as prime minister, he would immediately release Bu Ju, but these two days have passed, Bu Ju has not yet come back..."

The housekeeper walked up and said with a smile: "Master, I have good news about the prince!"

Ding Wei said angrily: "What I heard is that as long as it is related to the prince, there will be no good news!"

The housekeeper said with a smile: "Master, nowadays, it is circulating quietly in the city of Bianjing, saying that the current prince is addicted to the research of ice making, does not study hard in governing the country and does not do his job properly. This kind of crown prince disappoints the people..."

Um?

Ding Wei suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Okay, since the prince is unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous. If the people of the entire Bianjing City know that the prince is not doing their job properly, there will be a good show. Hehe... prepare a sedan chair and go to the royal palace!"

He was going to go to the royal palace to discuss it with Wang Qinruo.

As soon as Ding Wei left the gate, he saw him holding a sedan chair, which was Cao Yong.

When the two met, Cao Yong asked, "I guess Mr. Ding has learned the news, right?"

Ding Wei smiled and said, "Shumi Cao, our purpose should be the same. Why not go to the prefect Wang Chan to discuss it."

"Okay!"

The two of them took the same sedan chair and hurried to the palace.

...

Late at night.

The backyard of the royal palace.

Ding Wei, Cao Yong, Wang Qinruo, and the three of them gathered together.

Ding Wei gritted his teeth and said, "The crown prince is the crown prince. We should not be against him, but now it seems that the crown prince likes Kou Zhun, Li Di, Wang Zeng, etc., but he hates us for no reason. If this continues, once he has great influence and takes on the responsibility of governing the country, he will definitely not let us go. We cannot sit there and wait for death. We must cause some trouble for the crown prince and cut off the possibility that Kou Zhun wants him to govern the country..."

Cao Yong and Wang Qinruo nodded at the same time.

Ding Wei arranged: "Since this is the case, we will act on our own."

"Your Majesty Ding said it is reasonable!"

"Okay!"

The three of them dispersed one after another.

Little did they know that in a yard next to them, there was a graceful woman who was about fifteen or sixty years old and was squatting against the wall.

The woman was focused and frowned frequently.

The maid next to him whispered: "Miss, the master and the others are talking about military and national affairs. You are eavesdropping here. If you are discovered, you will be punished!"

The woman stood up and said unhappily: "Grandpa is really, he is still talking so quietly in his backyard. I just heard a little intermittently, as if the current prince has invented an ice-making technique, which can refer to water turning into ice..."

The maid's eyes lit up, "Miss, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is your future husband! If he can point out water to ice, then will you be able to eat ice in the summer in the future?"

The woman glanced at the maid and said to herself: "Icemaking technique should make a lot of money!"

...

The next day, in the city of Bianjing, it began to be circulated that Zhao Zhen was not doing his job properly and was addicted to ice making research.

One is passed down to ten, ten is passed down to hundreds, and more and more people are circulating.

Everything was carried out according to Ding Wei and others' expectations.

...

Kou Mansion.

When it was dark, Wang Shu came to the mansion anxiously.

As soon as he saw Kou Zhun, Wang Shu said uneasy: "Father-in-law, there is something that Your Highness has repeatedly told me not to tell others, but in the past two days, the situation has become more and more serious, and the more I think about it, the more uneasy I feel, the more I feel. This is the case..."

He briefly explained Zhao Zhen’s arrangement.

When Kou Zhun heard this, his face suddenly changed drastically and slapped the table: "Uncle Hui, you are confused! The prince is young, and you are a guest of the prince, and you are responsible for correcting mistakes. How can you even know that he has made a mistake but still obey his orders?"

Wang Shu said helplessly: "Father-in-law, you don't know that Your Highness's aura is greater than that of the official family. I... I really don't dare to refute it!"

Kou Zhun said helplessly: "I thought about it, but I didn't understand the key. Maybe your highness is really a whim. Uncle Hui, you are right. We can't sit idly by. Now the only way is to stop the spread of the news. You and I will act separately, contact those we trust separately, and send all forces to prohibit the spread of ice making techniques in Bianjing. You can take extraordinary measures at critical moments... However, keep this matter confidential to Your Highness first!"

The King nodded solemnly, "Yes, father-in-law!"

It is related to Zhao Zhen's reputation and the reputation of the court. Both Kou Zhun and Wang Shu attach great importance to it.

Kou Zhun immediately contacted the left counselor Wang Zeng, Hanlin scholar Yang Yi and others. Wang Shu contacted his trusted colleagues, the father-in-law and son-in-law, and each used all his strength to try his best to prevent the spread of the news.

...

Pingshan.

Chen Lin wiped the sweat from her head and said nervously: "Your Highness, in the past few days, many people in Bianjing City have been rumored that Your Highness is addicted to studying useless things like ice making, but he doesn't care about the government. Some people even said... Since ancient times, I have never seen a prince as untrue as Your Highness, and even... I even said that the Song Dynasty is about to end..."

"Hahaha, it's great!" Zhao Zhen said happily after hearing this.

Chen Lin looked confused.

Is Your Highness crazy?

I was still happy to hear the news that was not good for me?

Of course, he didn't dare to say it.

He sighed and whispered to himself: "Fortunately, the government has come forward to stop this matter."

Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows, stood up and asked, "Panpa Chen, are you talking about the government coming forward to stop this news from spreading?"

Chen Lin nodded.

Zhao Zhen was furious: "Which is the one who came from the Japanese? Ding Wei? It's impossible. The spread of these news was so fast, which was the good thing they did. They wished more people to know, how could they come forward to stop it? Liu E? It seems impossible... Could it be Kou Zhun? No, Kou Zhun didn't know about this in advance, so he shouldn't have reacted yet..."

He guessed for a while, but couldn't figure out who was helping him.

Zhao Zhen waved his hand: "Parent Chen, go and check it thoroughly, who is making trouble."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Chen Lin sent someone to investigate, but she had no clue.

Zhao Zhen was also a little confused: "Who is it? If Kou Zhun was not hiding it from this palace, he shouldn't have done such a big move in the court, but he could cover up his sights. There are only a few people!"

In desperation, he could only let Chen Lin continue to investigate.

...

at the same time.

Ding Wei, Cao Yong and others also received the news, but how could they miss the opportunity to retaliate against Zhao Zhen? So they continued to invest more financial and manpower, and disdained to expand the spread of news at all costs.

Therefore, even though the government has come forward to ban the spread of news, it can no longer stop it.
