Tang Heng's expression changed suddenly, and the expressions of Zheng Boyan and Song Jue also froze.

After the entire restaurant was silent for a moment, dissatisfaction immediately blew up.

"Who is talking nonsense? We planted it with our own hands. We ate it all by ourselves, so how could it be poisonous!"

"What kind of rumor is this? It's ridiculous!"

...

When Pei Yunxiao spoke from Master Wang, his expression became solemn.

The news that the harvested sweet potatoes were given to poor people in poor villages was just released for a few days before being crowned with such vicious rumors.

She would never believe that no one was manipulating it behind her back!

What does the manipulator want? Pei Yunxiao shielded the surrounding noise, calmly and thought carefully.

To benefit? Spreading rumors of sweet potatoes, leaving them at a loss, let big grain merchants such as Mr. Wang make bids to buy and monopolize sweet potato cultivation, and then dispel the rumors and grab huge profits?

This is certainly possible, but it will never be the most fundamental purpose.

Pei Yunxiao's eyes swept over the three grain merchants

Want to take the opportunity to win Tang Hang? Tang Heng is really making a name for himself this time, and his title on the gold list in the future is almost a certainty.

Such a peasant from a poor background will obviously be reused when entering the court hall, and it is impossible for the aristocracy to sit idly by.

But it was obviously impossible to kill Tang Heng, not to mention that it was too conspicuous, not to mention that Tang Heng was still standing behind him.

Then only win over.

Intimidate and lure, use any means to cut off the connection between Tang Hang and Pei's family, and use it for them. But Fan Tang Heng is an unsteady person, facing such a temptation, he might be shaken.

What else? What else do they want?

Pei Yunxiao thought of the master behind the scenes who instigated Liang Qi to assassinate him. He has not revealed his face, but Pei Yunxiao knows that he will not give up.

His purpose is to separate Tang Hang and himself, while drawing Tang Hang, while getting rid of her, Pei's most respected descendant, kills two birds with one stone.

Pei Yunxiao's suspicion once again fell on Zhao Xizhe.

She glanced at Zhao Xizhe without a trace, and was filled with indignation like the other students, with the same simplicity on her face.

Seriously, she really didn't want to doubt him, nor did she believe that he would be the mastermind behind the scenes. Pei Yun Xiaoning is willing to believe that Zhao Xizhe was used by the Zhao family.

But it's too coincidental...

Assassinated in Zaozizhuang, only the six of them who came out to give the cotton-padded clothes knew her and Tang Heng's deeds; this time, all the decisions for the sweet potato donation were made inside the academy...

"Yi Fei? Yi Fei?" Qin Dongxiang's voice suddenly pulled Pei Yunxiao's thoughts back.

"Brother Jingwen?" Pei Yunxiao was puzzled.

"Yi Fei, you have the most ideas, what should you do now?" Qin Dongxiang rarely worried.

"Yes, Xuexi Pei, the sweet potatoes we finally planted were just to give the people a way to survive, but now..." Li Yan was also heartbroken.

He is a child of a small family, and his family is not very rich, but because of his ancestral reputation, he is not much different from ordinary people.

Since he was a child, he has seen and heard all human tragedies in which poor people are still living but can’t live. He really can’t bear to watch this great opportunity now, and he has been given a slap in the face of business!

Pei Yunxiao did not answer.

The immediate task at the moment is naturally to refute the rumors and frustrate the calculations of those behind the scenes.

The matter of refuting the rumors couldn't be simpler. As long as people eat sweet potatoes, the rumors will be self-defeating.

But then?

Most plain-headed people have not read much and don't know much. This group of treacherous gangsters fools a few words, they will believe it.

It has never been Pei Yunxiao's goal to let the people eat sweet potatoes. Her goal is to let everyone grow sweet potatoes, be self-sufficient, and have enough food and clothing!

But if the people behind the scenes deliberately calculate this goal, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to achieve...

"gentlemen!"

After much deliberation, Pei Yunxiao decided to resolve the rumors first.

When Pei Yunxiao spoke, the restaurant immediately became quiet.

Everyone looked at her involuntarily, and at this moment, it seemed that she was the only one who could become the center.

The trio of Master Wang watched Pei Yunxiao walk up step by step, and were shocked by the noble bearing of her whole body, and their heartbeats were almost a bit fast.

Of course they recognized Pei Yunxiao. After hearing that Pei Yunxiao came to Wuzhou, there were no wealthy businessmen in Wuzhou City who wanted to make friends.

But this Young Master Pei is very cunning.

Basically, those who come to eat and socialize do not refuse, but all other human relations are rejected. In the end, it seemed like a group of people had thrown money to invite her to eat!

But she still treats everyone equally, impartially, so that everyone can't talk nonsense.

But from this they also noticed some clues, this young master Pei is not a simple character.

Later, after an accident in the Liang family's Wang family, everyone became even more afraid of her.

Therefore, the three of Master Wang glanced at each other, and they all had a thought in their hearts-to cheer up and deal with this awkward Young Master Pei!

"The three of you haven't seen each other for a long time, don't come here unharmed?" Pei Yunxiao was in front of them for the first time, without being polite as a junior.

Master Wang felt a sigh in his heart.

Just listen to Pei Yunxiao continuing: "The three good intentions for my brother and the college student, Yi Fei took it on their behalf. We have worked hard, but we are also willing."

"Is the sweet potato poisonous? There will be an arbitration in this matter! Yifei will definitely let the people of Wuzhou know who is the wicked person who is conspiring to seize their property!"

All the people were in an uproar.

In this remark, there is a yin and yang difference from the named Dao surname.

Sure enough, the faces of Master Wang and others darkened.

Master Wang suppressed the anger in his heart, and kept brainwashing himself "Pei Yunxiao can't provoke", so he remained calm.

In fact, they had guessed that the academy would refute the rumors.

But you only need a mouth to spread rumors, but you have to break your legs. Master Wang doesn't take refuting the rumors in his heart.

The "charm" of rumors is that even if they put the truth in front of the ignorant one by one, they can still find a hundred "proofs" and "reasons" for the rumors.

When the seeds of doubt were planted, how many mouths did Pei Yunxiao have? How many people can you say?

Pei Yunxiao saw the disdain of the three of them. She didn't care. Instead, she changed her words: "But even if you really can't deliver sweet potatoes, it's okay. My brother is wholeheartedly thinking about the people. What do you want to be your son-in-law by riding the dragon."

"Most of the money for planting sweet potatoes comes from the champion lock shop opened by a few of us. The money is originally earned from the Wuzhou folks, and we take it for the people and use it for the people. We don't lose money!"

Pei Yunxiao's words caused everyone in the hall to nod their heads.

The other students in the academy are doing their best, but Pei Yunxiao, Tang Heng, and Han Shaozhen all contribute money and effort. What they say, everyone naturally follows.

The faces of Master Wang and the others are even more ugly.

"Take it from the people, and use it for the people"? What this said!

Those who can afford their locks and locks are all wealthy households with some family properties, but the sweet potatoes delivered are poor and sour who can't even afford to eat!

This has to be called "robbing the rich and helping the poor", right!

The three of them couldn't laugh at all when they thought that each of them had to have more than a dozen of the top locks in their own house.

Although in essence, Tang Hengshang's sweet potato was beyond their reach. But when Pei Yunxiao said that, how he tasted it was not a taste. It's like eating a fly, awkward!

Master Wang left in disgrace, and failed to fulfill their wishes in the end.

Pei Yunxiao smiled softly, it was her honor to be sick to them.

"Yifei, do you really have a way to dispel the rumors?" Zheng Boyan was worried: "Although the poisonous rumors can be clarified as long as a bite of sweet potatoes in public, but the three of them will become tigers, and they will be destroyed! I don't know that they will be there again. Unscrupulously release something."

Pei Yunxiao has no clue for the time being, but still calmly said: "Please don't worry, the head of the academy, Yifei will definitely handle this matter, and it will not affect the reputation of the academy and the scholars!"

When I said this, even some of the sporadic students who originally thought that Pei Yunxiao and Tang Heng started planting sweet potatoes caused the trouble, and there was nothing to say.

A good event was so disturbed, and the people were no longer in the throat, and everyone had no thought of celebrating, or they were dejected, or went back to the academy with serious concerns.

In the room, Pei Yunxiao stood by the window, looking thoughtfully at the one-year-old leaves in the courtyard.

"Brother Xiao."

The door was not closed, Tang Hang stood at the door, knocked on the door frame, and walked in.

Pei Yunxiao turned around and saw Tang Hang holding a porcelain bowl in his hand.

"Seeing that you didn't eat much, but drank a lot of alcohol, drink some hangover soup, so as not to feel uncomfortable." Tang Heng handed the bowl over.

Pei Yunxiao's heart softened for no reason, staring blankly at Tang Hang's slender fingers under the edge of the bowl, and suddenly felt that he, who has never been drunk for a thousand cups, is a little bit inexplicable today.

"Thank you." Pei Yunxiao's mouth was a little dry.

Tang Hang just smiled and stood still in front of the window: "People believe in strange people or things, and most of them find resonance emotionally."

Pei Yunxiao just drank the medicinal soup, but did not keep up with his thinking for a while, and said in a daze, "Huh? What?"

Tang Heng's gaze swept across Pei Yunxiao's face, and his lips turned red and moist because of the hot soup. A white-faced bun with red dates popped out of his mind.

Could it be that I was hungry so early because I didn't have enough for lunch?

"I mean, the cruelest part of this rumor is that it binds sweet potatoes to the family. Because the planting of sweet potatoes involves the participation of the children of the family, we have no peace of mind, so sweet potatoes are bad things." Tang Hang shook off the weird thoughts in his mind and went back to the topic.

"Even if we say that sweet potatoes are not poisonous, we can't change their misunderstandings. They will think that since sweet potatoes are good things, why don't you rich people eat them and don't grow them, but let us poor people instead."

There was something in Pei Yunxiao's heart that instantly unraveled: "Yes, that's the truth!"

Tang Heng paused and continued: "So what we have to do is to make them understand that the students of the academy are not the opposition between the poor and the rich, let alone the opposition between the family and the common people."

"So I said, emotional resonance is especially important. Rumors will become popular because they have poked the people's meager wealth as a treasure. Then we will find the common ground between us and them, and let them be right. We strangers resonate and trust us."

Pei Yunxiao listened, lowered his head and condensed his eyebrows to think hard.

Suddenly, her inspiration flashed, and a thought came to her mind.

"Brother, I thought about it!"

The black grape-like eyes were like two crystal pearls, which suddenly leaped into Tang Hang's eyes.

The author has something to say: Tang Heng scratched his head: How do you feel Xiaodi seems to be getting more and more "mother" recently, should I remind him to be more like a man?
