Lin Feng explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, this strange word was originally used to describe strange and beautiful flowers, and was used as a metaphor for some precious and peculiar appearances or very outstanding things. Anyway, it refers to extremely rare and very special people or things! And His Majesty thinks that it can be described as a hundred years of wonder to describe such an outstanding person as the emperor, such a transcendent person, and a rare big man in the world! ”

After listening carefully to Lin Feng's explanation on the side, Tang Xizong stroked his palms and laughed: "Haha, I didn't expect Aiqing to still have a literary person, good, good!" Since Aiqing said so, then I will be such a century-old wonderful emperor! ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" Then Lin Feng pointed to a few people in the distance and said, "Your Majesty, the minister still has a couplet for the emperor." Saying that, Lin Feng clapped his hands at those people.

Tang Xizong took two steps forward with great interest, pointing to the couplet and reciting: "The heart is smooth, the emperor is smooth, the industry is smooth, the family is prosperous, the people are prosperous, the country is prosperous, and the four seas are prosperous." New Year's Shun Xing. Then Tang Xizong turned around and pointed at Lin Feng and said to Tian Lingzi: "Haha, Lord Tian, I really didn't see the wrong person!" After finishing speaking, Tang Xizong looked at Lin Feng and asked, "Aiqing, this is the biggest and best congratulatory gift I have received this year, a talking phone, a pair of words, and a pair of New Year's greeting couplets!" Good, good, great! Reward, yes, reward! Aiqing, say, whatever reward you want, I will definitely satisfy you! ”

"Thank the emperor, the ministers sent the emperor a congratulatory gift, just hoping that the emperor will be happy, hoping that the emperor can quell the rebellion and civil strife as soon as possible, unify the country, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment! There is no extravagant reward! Lin Feng replied with a mixed heart on the side.

"No, no, no, how can it be done! Other ministers send some congratulatory gifts, and I have to send some back, Aiqing's congratulatory gifts are so in line with my heart, how can there be no reward? Must be rewarded! Then Tang Xizong stretched out his hand and touched his chin and thought for a long time, and asked Tian Lingzi: "Lord Tian, I remember that the Jiedu envoy of Shannan Dongdao was recommended by you, right?" ”

After Tian Lingzi listened to Tang Xizong's words, his eyes rolled a few times, and he looked at Lin Feng on the side, nodded and said: "Well, what the emperor said is right, the envoy of the host festival is Niu Xu, the younger brother of Niu Xuan, because the world is uneven, so let the two of them take charge of the east and west of Shannan respectively. However, I don't know about the Hou Ye... ”

After listening to it, Lin Feng immediately understood what Tian Lingzi meant, and hurriedly saluted and replied: "Don't worry, Lord Tian, please rest assured, please rest assured." This Shannan Province was originally a whole, but now it is divided into two provinces, east and west, the emperor might as well imagine, if even this Shannan Province has not made up its mind to unify, then what will our army and our people think? If the emperor is at ease with the subordinates, the minister is willing to take over the Shannan East Road, from now on, the emperor's country will no longer have Shannan East and West Road, but only one for the emperor's country, for the foundation of the Tang Dynasty to do his best, and then the Shannan Road! ”

Tang Xizong nodded lightly on the side, but he still didn't agree immediately, but pondered. Tian Lingzi on the side thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, what the Hou Ye said is reasonable!" If Shannan Province is unified, you can also let others know the emperor's determination to unify the world and sweep away the rebellion! What's more, this Niu Xu did not have any outstanding political achievements during the time of governing the host, the host state of Jing, Xiang and other states was originally a rich land, but every time the tribute was mediocre, and even some of the meaning of the bottom! ”

After listening to Tian Lingzi's words, Tang Xizong nodded and decided: "Well, then it's decided, you immediately draw up an edict to abolish the position of the envoy of the east and south of Niuxu Mountain, and then draw up an edict, and from then on, the east and west of Shannan will be merged into Shannan Road!" You can see the specific matters! ”

"Yes, don't worry, the emperor!" Tian Lingzi replied on the side.

Lin Feng also hurriedly thanked the emperor on the side: "Thank you Emperor Longen!" The minister will live up to the holy hope! Saying that, Lin Feng turned to Tian Lingzi and said, "I've added something to Lord Tian again, and I hope Lord Tian won't blame him!" ”

"Master Hou is polite, it's all a matter of duty, no need to be polite!" Tian Lingzi also replied lightly.

"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to give to the emperor." Saying that, Lin Feng beckoned to a eunuch at the back, the eunuch hurriedly ran over and handed Lin Feng a box, Lin Feng took it and handed it to Tian Lingzi, and said to Tang Xizong: "Your Majesty, here are some tea and tobacco, the tea was bought from a Suzhou and Hangzhou merchant some time ago, and it was not delivered in time." The other tobacco is hand-selected high-quality tobacco leaves and homemade hand-to-carry cigarettes during the period of recuperation. ”

Tang Xizong nodded, opened the box in Tian Lingzi's hand, took out a box of cigarettes, looked at it for a long time and asked, "How is this different?" ”

"Well, this one is a handy cigarette, also known as a cigarette! It's all fine tobacco! Saying that, Lin Feng took the box from Tang Xizong's hand, opened the mechanism of the lid on the box, and then took out a cigarette from it, which was an authentic modern cigarette product, and then took out a jade carved cigarette holder from the box and inserted it, and then handed it to Tang Xizong: "Your Majesty, this kind of cigarette is relatively small in size, so it is easy to carry around." As he spoke, he took out a fire fold and lit it for him.

Tang Xizong pinched the cigarette holder, took two puffs, exhaled deeply, and said with a look of enjoyment: "Not bad!" Aiqing can always bring unexpected surprises to me! ”

Lin Feng stood aside, pointed at the wooden cigarette case and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to ask for, the minister has now opened a small workshop in Hanzhong, which is dedicated to making this kind of cigarette, but you see, this cigarette has no name yet, and the minister wants to ask the emperor to give this cigarette a name!" ”

Tang Xizong took a cigarette in his mouth, squinted his eyes and nodded, thought for a while and said: "This cigarette was made by you, since you want me to name it, then I will give it a name!" Then he looked at the cigarette holder and cigarette in his hand and said, "That's it, let's call it a pint of Yufeng!" I am also here to wish you to rise step by step in the future and reach the first rank of senior officials as soon as possible, so it's decided! ”

"Yipin Yufeng, good! Thank you for the name! Lin Feng saluted again, and then said, "Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, you will go back first?" I have been seriously injured and in a coma for many days, and there is still a lot of official business to deal with! ”

"Okay, but Aiqing still has to take care of her body!" Tang Xizong said to Tian Lingzi: "Lord Tian, you go and send the Hou Ye!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Long live the emperor, the minister has retired!" After Lin Feng finished speaking, he left with Tian Lingzi.
