Chapter 254: Giving Tea

"The other is fast. The knife is messy, and the slash is broken! Don't give your opponent room to turn back and miss the opportunity! ”

The more Li Houcong spoke, the more solemn his face became, and when he saw that his son was a little dazed, he sighed: "Son, I know that there are some things that you have never seen or done, but as an emperor, these are skills that must be learned. I called you here today to let you see what is the real court, what is the plan, what is the decision, what is the opportunity, and what is the future. ”

He pointed to the huge screen and said, "If you finish eating, go and wait behind the screen." Remember, no matter what you hear or see, don't come out until I call you and you come out again, understand? ”

Li Chongyan had never seen his father tell him so solemnly, so he hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth and responded, "The child knows." ”

Li Houcong saw that his son's figure was hidden, and after hiding behind the screen, he called loudly: "Come on, withdraw the meal, and set the tea!" ”

* * * * * *

After noon, the sun is shining.

In front of the evergreen gate, Gonggong Li was still waiting there meticulously.

He thought to himself, counting the hour, it was almost time.

Not long after, sure enough, a person came from the road of the palace wall, stepping on a square step, with a majestic appearance, it was Han Fu, the orthodox leader of the Songyang battalion.

Gonggong Li greeted him with a smile when he saw him, and arched his hand and said, "Congratulations to Master Han, rich and noble." ”

Han Fu was proud and replied: "Cheng Gonggong's auspicious words." ”

"Your Majesty is already in the Yixian Pavilion, and I also ask the Hou Ye to come and see him quickly."

Han Fu was stunned: "What...... Isn't Your Majesty going to give tea in the tea garden today? ”

"Your Majesty said, tea is to be given, and knights are also to be sealed, so you can't be knighted in the tea garden, right? Wouldn't that wronged Han Houye? Grandpa Li's smile did not change.

"Oh...... Then there is Lao Gonggong to lead the way. ”

The two of them walked into the Evergreen Gate, turned right and bypassed the Evergreen Palace, which was the Yixian Pavilion.

I saw that the treasure "unicorn ring" in the more than a dozen pots of chrysanthemums placed in front of the steps of Yixian Pavilion was opened at the right time, how could I see it? There is a poem as proof:

The golden chrysanthemum is dancing in the pot, and the light roll is fragrant.

Ren Er's autumn wind and frost, I stretch my soul from my own growth.

Such a treasure, Han Fu couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and when he was greedy to look at it, a voice suddenly remembered in his ears:

"Han Aiqing, what do you think of these pots of chrysanthemums? Hehehe. ”

Han Fu turned around and saw that Emperor Wen was standing in front of the hall door and looking at him with a smile.

He hurriedly bowed down and said, "Minister Han Fu pays a visit to Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Wen motioned for him to get up and enter the hall, gave him to sit down, and said, "I see that Aiqing seems to like that chrysanthemum very much. Come, talk about it, what you think is good. ”

Han Fu is a child of the aristocracy, he has been good at eating and wearing everything since he was a child, and he is naturally very good at appreciating chrysanthemums, but he has always been wary of Emperor Wen, and he has been used to hiding clumsily for many years, so he replied: "The minister is a martial artist, and he can't say anything if he wants to talk about it in detail, but he feels that he has never seen such a beautiful chrysanthemum, so he took a few greedy looks." ”

Emperor Wen laughed: "Aiqing, I just like your straightforward martial arts temperament, I think it's good-looking, I can't say it if I can't say it, and I never pretend to be strong." ”

He called loudly: "Come on, choose the two best pots of the 'Qilin Ring' at the door and send them to the mansion of Commander Han." ”

When Han Fu heard this, he hurriedly got up and thanked him.

Before this tea was given, two pots of chrysanthemums were given first......

"Aiqing, today I invite you to tea, so you don't need to be polite. Besides, you've been here many times, so what are you doing restraining these? Emperor Wen said, stood up, and paced to the side of the hall.

There was a row of seven-star cabinets, very much like the kind of cabinets in a Chinese medicine shop, densely packed with small drawers, each with the name of a tea written on it.

Emperor Wen stood in front of the cupboard and hesitated for a while, "I don't remember which things Aiqing has drunk and which ones have not drunk......

Seeing this, Han Fu hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty's teas are all rare and good teas, and any kind of tea minister thinks it is very good." ”

Emperor Wen's eyes lit up like a child, and he smiled: "Really? That...... Let's take my proudest 'Wuyanchun'. As he spoke, he opened the drawer, shoveled a few spoonfuls of tea leaves, and poured them into the Sakuragi tea bottle.

The name of "Wuyanchun" is very famous, and everyone knows that it is a good tea grafted and cultivated by Emperor Wen himself, and it is easy to see. Today, Emperor Wen actually took out this tea, which shows his kindness. Han Fu thought to himself at the moment, such courtesy, it seems that it is really as Ye Zhiqiu said, he has the intention of going east, and wants my Songyang battalion to fight to the death for him?

Han Fu watched Emperor Wen wash the dishes and boil water, and there was always a kind smile on his face. If it weren't for the fact that he personally handed over the trick of plotting against Mu Yunzuo to himself, he would almost forget that the person in front of him would be a murderous and bloodless evil king.

"I remember the last time I sat alone with Aiqing like this, it was one night, I remember that when I handed the bag to Aiqing that night, I also asked, 'Will not be affected by the life of the foreign monarch', what is the explanation, Aiqing's answer at that time was very satisfying. Now that the moon has passed, I still want to ask again, I wonder how Aiqing's opinion is different? ”

Han Fu secretly wondered, Ye Zhiqiu really expected it to be no worse, but fortunately, he had already prepared his words, and immediately replied respectfully: "A king is a king, and a minister is a minister." The minister can't think of who else should do things according to the king's order, and the minister who is not subject to the king's order is not a loss of his duty as a minister? Therefore, no matter how many times His Majesty asks, the minister's answer will not change. ”

Li Chongyan stood behind the screen and thought secretly, listening to the two of them ask and answer, what they said was obviously something extremely secret, and there were very mysterious things in their words. Especially Han Fu's answer, which can be described as leaky, is like a familiar eight-strand text before the imperial examination, and there is not even one more word. Su Rili saw that Han Fu was silent, thinking that he was a reckless martial artist, but he didn't think that there was a hidden side. I just don't know what my father wants me to listen to when he wants me to stand here and listen to them.

Emperor Wen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Aiqing's heart is as solid as a rock, and I am very relieved." As he spoke, he poured the boiling water into the bottle, washed away the tea leaves, poured the first cup and discarded it, only handed over the fragrant cup, and said: "But there are some things, after all, the whip is beyond the reach, if Aiqing leads the army thousands of miles away, what is there to make a decision immediately, and then wait for my will, wouldn't it delay the military plane?" ”

Han Fu was stunned, he said that if I want to lead the army thousands of miles away, where else can I be besides the blue sea border? This is what Ye Zhiqiu deduced from his Eastern Crusade, right? But what does that mean? Do you want me to make my own decisions?

No...... Never!

Li Houcong is suspicious by nature, and the city government is deep, he will never ask so shallowly, he must be tempting me!

So he replied cautiously: "Fortunately, there are still pigeon harriers in the army, even if they are thousands of miles away, it will not take much time to wait for His Majesty's instructions, so it should not delay the military plane." ”

After speaking, he secretly probed Emperor Wen's face to react.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Wen didn't seem to hear it, so he took the teapot slowly, poured out a cup and held it in his hand, looked at the soup carefully, and said with satisfaction: "The tea is ready, this soup should be just right, Aiqing can taste it." As he spoke, he handed over the teacup.

Seeing that he was noncommittal, Han Fu had to take the teacup and take a sip first, and politely praised: "Sure enough, it's a good tea, a good taste." ”

"Hahaha, if you like it, you can have another drink."

Emperor Wen said, and also poured a cup for himself, tasting it in his mouth, and the expression on his face seemed to be extremely enjoyable.

"Speaking of which, which of the two titles I gave you is the match?" Emperor Wen pinched the topic of Fang Cai and asked another thing.

This is also a preparatory answer, and there is nothing difficult to answer.

Han Fu opened his mouth and said: "Which of the two titles given by His Majesty to the ministers is a gift, and the ministers have no objections. ”

Emperor Wen laughed and said: "Fang Kua Aiqing is straightforward, why don't you refuse to tell the truth, Aiqing is okay." ”

"If you have to say it, the minister ...... I think the word Jinghai is more suitable. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Wen looked a little surprised, and said, "It seems that I have thought about it, I thought it was ...... Aiqing will like the word loyalty and bravery, after all, it is worthy of the name...... What is the reason for choosing the word Jinghai? ”

The minister feels that whether he is loyal or brave or not is only for future generations to judge, and it is not up to the minister to decide. For generals, when the king is the key, with ambitions, now the four seas are not peaceful, and the smoke is rising again. I am willing to conquer the city for Your Majesty, serve on the battlefield, wipe out the enemy, and smear your liver and brains! Therefore, the word Jinghai is exactly what the minister wishes in his life! ”

Emperor Wen seemed a little surprised, and muttered, "...... The four seas are not peaceful, and the smoke is rising again? What do you mean by that? In my Cangwu country, the country is now peaceful and peaceful, and there is no war. ”

Han Fu suddenly felt that his words were a bit too much, and he wanted to explain. Emperor Wen asked as if he had suddenly realized: "Now that the Imurans have indeed pressed the border of the Blue Sea Country, but our country has no border with Imuran, where does the smoke come from?" Don't...... Could it be that Aiqing's unsettled seas refer to...... Blue Sea Country? ”

According to Ye Zhiqiu's guess, Han Fu confidently prepared his words, and saw that every word Emperor Wen said was almost no different from what he had expected, so he went all the way down, but Emperor Wen suddenly changed his words, and now he asked like this, the answer is not good, it is not good, it is not good, it is not embarrassing, so he had to pick up the teacup and drink it all, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's tea is really delicious, please give me another cup." ”

Emperor Wen laughed and poured a full cup for him with a boot bottle.

The two seemed to be talking and laughing, but they shocked Li Chongyan behind the screen.

Could it be that the father has the intention of going east? Or Han Fu?

What his father thinks in his heart is indeed unpredictable sometimes, but his father's laughter is very familiar to him, and it is clear that his father is pretending to be surprised, so it seems that he already knows what Han Fu is thinking?

It's strange to say, they all say that my Li family is mentally deficient, but my father really doesn't have any signs of this at all.
