"No! I will make arrangements now!" Zhao Si accepted the order and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Chu Ze stopped him again, thought for a while, and then ordered: "Li Xing also asked him to send some clever people to spread the news that the government is thoroughly investigating these rumors. Since the Jiang family wants to spread the news among the people, To ruin this king’s reputation, let’s speak with facts!”

Zhao Si understood and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty is wise! I will do it right away!"

"Go ahead." Chu Ze waved his hand and said, "Remember, keep a low profile and don't alert others."

"No!" Zhao Si took the order and left.

Chu Ze was sitting in the study, thinking solemnly.

Jiang Jiangkai, a scumbag, dared to use such despicable methods to deal with himself. He was really deceiving others!

It seems that if you don't teach him a lesson, you won't know how high the sky is and how high it is.

But the most important thing right now is to quickly quell the rumors and stabilize public sentiment.

If the people misunderstand the court and themselves, then the gain will outweigh the loss.

Thinking of this, Chu Ze secretly vowed to find out the mastermind as soon as possible and never let them succeed!
……

The streets of Fengyang City are bustling with people coming and going in an endless stream.

In the tea house and restaurant, there are all kinds of people from all walks of life, chatting and spanking, it is very lively.

Recently, various negative rumors about Prince Chu Ze have been circulating in the streets, and people are talking about it.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, have you heard about it? That Prince Chu, I heard that he embezzled a lot of money and even deceived the superiors and concealed it!" An old man drinking tea in a teahouse said to a friend next to him.

"Fart! Prince Chu built roads and bridges in Fengyang to benefit our community. How does he look like a corrupt official?" Lao Zhang rolled his eyes at him.

"That's right! I see, these are all people farting on purpose!" A scholar-looking man next to him said, "Prince Chu has always been upright and upright, eliminating harm for the people, and has a very good reputation among the people. These rumors are eight out of ten. Ninth, those treacherous and evil people were released to slander the prince!"

"I don't think so." A businessman at the other table shook his head and said, "Who knows what the officials are thinking? They may do good things on the surface today, but their true colors may be revealed tomorrow. Isn't this the way the world is?"

Everyone said something to each other, each holding his own opinion, and became a quarrel with each other.

"Shut up!" Suddenly, a loud voice interrupted everyone's argument.

Everyone turned around and saw a handsome man in blue walking in with his head held high.

"Li Xing!" Someone recognized his identity and exclaimed.

Li Xing looked around and slowly said: "Everyone, there have been rumors circulating in the market recently, saying that our prince is greedy for money and money from the people, amassing money and doing random things, without any regard for the life and death of the people. But think about it, everyone, what the prince has done for our Fengyang these years How many practical things have you done? Building roads and bridges, constructing water conservancy projects, and relieving victims of disasters. Which of them is not eliminating harm and benefiting the people? "

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Li Xing said again: "The prince is now planning to build an academy to educate the people and popularize culture. What kind of virtuous and benevolent act is this? How could it be done by a corrupt official? Everyone, think about it carefully. Do you want to believe those who are chasing rumors and shadows? Rumors, or should we believe what the prince has been doing? "

Someone said loudly: "Young Master Li is right! Among us Fengyang people, who doesn't know that Prince Chu is a good official? Those rumors must be spread by people with bad intentions, just to ruin the reputation of Prince Chu!" "

"That's right! Prince Chu has done so many good things for us, but with his character, don't you feel confident?"

Gradually, more and more people echoed the sentiment.

Everyone spoke to each other and tried their best to defend Chu Ze.

Li Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the prince indeed had a deep foundation in Fengyang, and these rumors would have limited impact on him. After everyone talked for a while, Li Xing quietly left.

He thought all the way and thought to himself: Jiang Jiangkai, the traitor, really offended the prince this time.

The prince has always been kind-hearted and always considers the people. It is simply wishful thinking to use such despicable means to ruin his reputation among the people.

Huh, just wait and see, sooner or later you will get good results from him!
……

Meanwhile, the elementary school construction site.

The spies arranged by Zhao Si have quietly sneaked into the ranks of workers.

They disguised themselves, mingled with the workers, and secretly observed every move on the construction site.

Suddenly, the spies discovered that several workers were sneaking around and acting mysteriously, as if they were plotting something.

They winked at each other and followed him tacitly.

I saw a few suspicious workers quietly coming to a remote corner, taking out a few packages, and whispering furtively.

"Hurry up and hide these things before no one notices."

"Damn, the people above are so shady, they insist on us causing trouble in the construction site. I'm taking such a big risk, they'd better give me enough money!"

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work!"

The spies held their breath and listened carefully to their conversation.

So it turns out that there is indeed a mole in the construction site who is deliberately causing trouble!

Moreover, they also mentioned the 'people above'. It seems that the mastermind behind the scenes really has ulterior motives!
He winked at everyone and motioned for them to outflank them.

But at this moment, one of the workers accidentally kicked a stone and made a crisp sound!
The moles suddenly turned around and discovered the ambush spies, and were immediately shocked!
"Oops! Someone!"

"Run!"

It was too late, but soon, the spies swarmed up and surrounded the moles in the blink of an eye!
"Who are you? Why are you making trouble on the construction site?" he stepped forward and asked.

"We, we just..." The leader of the gang hesitated, sweating on his forehead.

After hearing Li Xing's report, Chu Ze couldn't help but feel warm.

Unexpectedly, the people of Fengyang trusted him so much that they would stand up to support him even at the risk of being retaliated by Jiang Mansion.

"Li Xing, do you think we Fengyang people are so cute and stupid?" Chu Ze was filled with emotion.

"The world is tough, who doesn't want to have more coins to live a more comfortable life?"

"I know that the Jiang family must use money to bribe people to help spread rumors, but instead of taking advantage of this, they want to stand on our side. Alas, someone Chu has recorded this kindness."

"Your Majesty, the people are not stupid." Li Xing smiled and said: "They really support you. You serve as an official and benefit the country. The people see it in their eyes and remember it in their hearts. We are in trouble now. Of course they have to help."

"Yes, this is our duty, not worth mentioning." Chu Ze sighed and said: "It's just that the Jiang family gang bullied others too much. They dared to cause trouble on the construction site, which is simply unreasonable!" (This chapter over)
