43. Chapter 43
The inspection of tea here was vigorous, and Her Majesty the Empress Xià was not idle, she carried Shi Jinyu to the Qinzheng Palace.
Shi Jinyu entered the Qinzheng Hall again with the envious, jealous and hateful eyes of many ministers, Her Majesty the Empress was authoritarian and autocratic, and rarely discussed things with a minister alone, and now that she is like this, she naturally makes everyone look up to her.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
"Aiqing is flat." The empress was very kind: "I remember that last year it was you who registered in Yundi. ”
"It's for the minister."
"Hmm." The empress said: "Concubine De's niece and daughter of the Shen family this year, and Lu is a major event for women, if it is in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, and her parents are by her side, it will be very grand, and now she is doing an errand for me, but she is wronged, I can't bear it, this time you will go for me." "Her Majesty the Empress is very face-saving to Shen Zhifang.
"Obey." Shi Jinyu picked up her clothes and knelt down, and she was completely enlightened in her heart, not only the loyal and righteous Marquis Sun Jian was in the emperor's heart, but several little ladies in Yundi had fallen into the eyes of this supreme, but they were really powerful, and the woman's body was also developing over there.
"Just arrive on March 3."
"Yes."
Then the whole capital knows, Shi Jinyu this time is to replace the Empress Xià to the Shen family daughter, it is said that the Empress Xià and the queen of a set of sapphire head is the top priority of this reward, this is the first emperor in order to highlight the Empress Xià is Empress Wenxiao said, the identity of the concubine, deliberately used the nine-tailed phoenix on the phoenix crown of the ceremony, and later the head jewelry is also a few sets of special, this set of sapphires is a special set, and the rest of the things are still eight-tailed phoenix, Only the phoenix in the middle is the nine-tails. Each tail is inlaid with a sapphire, which sparkles and is very beautiful.
Here Shi Jinyu wants to go out, over there Concubine De and Princess Depei have added countless good things to the past, the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion is naturally the same, to say that the happiest is the Shen family, I never expected that my daughter would be so promising, she could be so appreciated by Her Majesty the Empress, in the case of the old rebellion of the Wang Ge, although their family stood in line to win, but the process was not good, because it was determined at the last moment, which led to the fact that Her Majesty did not treat the Shen family very well, fortunately, there were Concubine De and the eldest princess.
When Concubine De was the concubine of the first emperor, she was very attentive to Her Majesty the Empress, and the eldest princess had a deep sisterhood with the empress, and the Shen family was not marginalized, but it was impossible to go further, and cough cough, although I didn't want to admit it, but their family is indeed a little withered now, I didn't expect that the son would not succeed, but the daughter was very angry, Shen Jun smiled and hurriedly returned to the back house.
"Madam, take a look, Fang'er is out of breath." When the people entered the house, the voice came first.
"Husband?"
"His Majesty ordered Shi Shilang to be a messenger and reward Fang'er and Lu's things, one of which is said to be a set of sapphire jewelry specially created by the Supreme and the Empress of the Nine-Tailed Huasheng." Shen Junshou is simply happy, what a great honor is this?
"Really?"
"Alas! Madam, you can't lie to your husband. ”
"God forbid." Mrs. Shen was so happy, she never expected her daughter to be so competitive: "County guard, why don't I let Erlang Saburo accompany me to Yundi?" My daughter's etiquette, I, as a mother, always have to take care of it. ”
"Can't go." Shen Junshou waved his hand: "You see that the Supreme gave Sanniang such a great honor, and ordered Shi Shilang to go, but he didn't give me an order, it can be seen that he didn't want us to go, his daughter is loyal to the country, this is the Supreme Compensation for her, you went, how can you be wronged?" ”
Shen Junshou saw this very clearly.
Mrs. Shen could only nod, she couldn't go in person, she could always send someone to bring her cronies, pack countless good things and send them to Yundi.
Shen Zhifang is very busy, although she knows that she should do it this year, but first, she can't do it, she has no experience in the specific process, and second, she has no time, including Shao Yunhua, they don't have time.
Some time ago, Shao Yunhua ran to check the terrain a little farther away, and found a large area of wild tea trees, which was simply pie in the sky, and someone handed him a pillow when he was sleepy, and he couldn't be happier.
This tea garden is very large, wild, and there are some other trees mixed in it, very few, twenty tea trees can also be mixed with one other tree, basically this ratio, but the more disturbing is that the tea trees because no one prunes them, the branches are very strange, so they need to rest.
In addition to Mei Xin to sit in the base camp, including Shao Yunhua who took people over there every day to tidy up the tea trees, Shao Yunhua specially went to Kunming Mansion to hire six skilled tea garden masters to teach the little ladies how to prune tea trees. This is also the reason why a few of them followed, since they want to make this line bigger, then as the person in charge, you can not be proficient, but you can't.
Pruning tea trees is a chore, and the low ones are easy to do, but the wild ones, even if the tea trees of Yunnan green tea are not tall seedlings, there are always two or three meters, isn't it? Shao Yunhua and the others are not two meters tall, so the first thing to overcome is to go up the tree.
Shao Yunhua was wearing a short dozen clothes, and he went up the tree in two or three clicks, and he was very flexible.
Seeing Shao Yunhua, a noble girl in Beijing, their general leaders have all gone up the tree, and others are bold enough to try, Wang Xiuer is dexterous and will soon be able to climb up and down the tree.
Aunt Zhao is a cheerful person, watching Wang Xiuer climb up and down, holding the trunk, and trying to climb up, although they practice with not a tea tree, but in the future to work on the tea tree, so at this time this tree will be a tea tree to see, be careful not to touch the tender branches.
It's easy to climb a tree, use your hands and feet together, and climb the branches, it's no problem at all.
"Aunt Zhao, come down, it's my turn." Chen Zifu pinched his waist under the tree and shouted, her father felt that Wei Zifu must be very good-looking, just like a fairy daughter, otherwise how could Emperor Wu of Han spoil her for so long, and wanted to make his daughter look better, so he chose this name for her, but unfortunately Chen Zifu is not Wei Zifu, a fairy daughter, a dominatrix, well, they are not mortals, not ╮( ̄▽ ̄")╭
"Hmm." Aunt Zhao answered, and then began to walk down, but this time she looked down and saw that her feet were so high from the ground, and she was lightheaded, and her legs were weak.
Chen Zifu waited for a while, and found that Aunt Zhao didn't move, so he shouted again: "Come down." ”
At this time, Aunt Zhao couldn't even speak, that is, others couldn't see her face on the tree, and at this time there was no trace of blood on her face, and the tips of her forehead and nose were full of sweat.
"Aunt Zhao? What happened to you? Chen Zifu is not stupid, seeing that Aunt Zhao was motionless, he hurriedly asked again.
Aunt Zhao swallowed her saliva, and there was a cry in her voice: "I can't go down." ”
……
"You wait in the tree first, I'll call someone."
"Well, you're going to hurry." If it weren't for being so strong, Aunt Zhao would really cry at this time.
Wang Xiuer hurriedly went to call someone.
In fact, it wasn't far away, just take two steps and shout a voice, Shao Yunhua heard that someone couldn't get down the tree, so he hurriedly took a few people over: "What's the matter, can't you come down?" ”
"Hmm." Aunt Zhao felt that it was all dark, and it was over, she was too embarrassed this time.
"I'll take you down." If you want to talk about the kung fu of climbing trees, Shao Yunhua has to be the best. She went up in two or three clicks, and then helped Aunt Zhao to go down.
Aunt Zhao was still very scared, obviously the distance was not high, but her legs were weak, Shao Yunhua said: "Don't look down, look at my feet, just follow along." ”
"Okay." Aunt Zhao nodded again and again, not looking below, and finally had the courage to follow Shao Yunhua step by step.
After getting to the ground, I didn't dare to be clean or dirty, and I started panting as soon as I got to the ground.
"It's okay, you don't have to be here today, go home first and rest and calm down."
"Okay." This time, Aunt Zhao didn't want to be strong. She was really scared.
"Everyone should pay attention, take a few steps and look down, don't go up in one breath." With the question of Aunt Zhao, Shao Yunhua hurriedly reminded her of her birth.
Shao Yunhua led a group of little ladies to climb trees all day long, and at this time, Shi Jinyu arrived!
Shi Jinyu sent the emperor to revisit, but he arrived in advance, and did not say hello in advance, Mei Xin, who stayed behind, saw that he was an old acquaintance, very happy, and arranged a small bamboo building for him, Shi Jinyu washed up, and went to see the so-called tea garden, he liked to drink tea the most, so he was very curious.
Rubbing his eyes and looking at the sky, Shi Jinyu felt that he was in a hurry, or was he in a dream? And the sun is coming out of the east, too? What is that little lady in a short dress on the tree? Don't tell him that he is a tree spirit!! Shi Jinyu's whole person is not good!
"Huh? Shi Shilang, arrived so soon? Shao Yunhua jumped down from the tree over there, very puzzled, the official document over there said that the nasty ghost came, but isn't this nasty ghost weak? Why did you arrive so soon?
Shi Jinyu twitched the corner of his mouth, and he began to rejoice that his heart was fine, otherwise he would have to be scared. endured the stiffness on his face, and pulled out a faint smile: "There is nothing on the road, it's only two days early." ”
Shao Yunhua nodded: "We are pruning the branches of the tea tree here, do you want Shi Shilang to take a look?" ”
Shi Jinyu waved his hand again and again, let him watch a group of little ladies climbing up and down the trees? It's a beautiful picture, he can't appreciate it.
"Shi Shilang has tasted this Yunnan green tea?" Shao Yunhua looked at Shi Jinyu's constipated face, rolled her eyes in her heart, and had nothing to say.
"I've tasted it, it tastes good, it's sweet, it's a rare good tea." It is precisely because of good tea that Shi Jinyu is interested in coming to see the tea tree, and when she saw this picture, she was full of tears.
"Then how much silver do you think this tea can be sold for if it is sent to the capital?" Shao Yunhua's eyes were shining.
Seeing Shao Yunhua's spirits, her eyebrows and eyes were vivid, she blushed a little, and her heartbeat accelerated a little, sure enough, those little ladies were too unreliable, which was definitely angry. The spirit was in a trance, and then he returned to his senses and said: "The grandson's words are wrong, so delicious, it should be enjoyed by the supreme in the world first." ”
Shao Yunhua blinked, but didn't react.
Shi Jinyu saw Shao Yunhua's appearance, and a sincere smile appeared on her lips: "The Supreme likes it, and the world loves it." "To put it simply, the top is good, and the next will follow suit, the king of Chu has a thin waist, and the palace is starving to death, if Shao Yunhua pays tribute to the empress, as long as the majesty says good, then this tea will inevitably be worth double.
The last time I went back to the capital to test the empress's love for Shao Yunhua, Shi Jinyu didn't build yì to sell personal favors at this time, and this tea is really good, cough cough! The grandson is also very good!
Shao Yunhua's eyes lit up, and she looked at Shi Jinyu brightly, with a smile on her face: "That's right, thank you Shi Shilang." ”
Shi Jinyu smiled. Facing the little lady who climbed up and down the tree, and the endless tea tree, well! This picture is actually quite beautiful, and labor is glorious!
