Chapter 35: A line of masters
After all the courtiers left, Li Longji stopped a person.
"Your Majesty, what else do you command?"
The master and his entourage turned around and looked at Li Longji on the imperial stairs behind them.
I haven't seen him for many days, and His Majesty seems to be a little old.
"Master, please stay!"
Li Longji, with the support of Gao Lishi, walked down the high imperial steps.
"Master, I haven't seen you for many days, it's rare to get together today, can you have a drink with me?"
Li Longji had already walked up to a group of masters as he spoke.
"Your Majesty invited, and I didn't dare to refuse."
A group of masters clasped their hands together and lowered their eyebrows.
"The master's words are wrong, my invitation this time is just a friendship of friends, not a monarch and a minister."
Li Longji looked at the monk in front of him, and said with a wry smile in his heart, the line is still the same as it was back then, lonely, arrogant, and rejecting people for thousands of miles.
"So, where does Your Majesty plan to drink with the poor monk?"
After the line of salutes, he looked up at His Majesty the Emperor in front of him.
"Let's go to my Imperial Garden, Lux, and you lead the way, and I and the Master will be there."
Li Longji turned his head sideways and instructed Gao Lishi.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Gao Lishi understood what Li Longji meant, and then turned away.
As the first favorite of the Tang Emperor, Gao Lishi naturally has the advantages of Gao Lishi.
For example, figuring out the divine will.
"Your Majesty, it's okay to speak up."
After Gao Lishi walked away, he smiled slightly and asked.
"Does the master know that I have something to ask?"
Li Longji was not surprised.
In front of the line, no clues will be ignored by him, and his look may have already told him the answer.
"Master, in your opinion, is my country stable?"
Li Longji asked a question that he had wanted to ask for a long time.
"Your Majesty, how can you be so worried?"
The group walked with Li Longji.
"Master doesn't know, I have always felt some hidden worries recently, but I don't know what the hidden worries are, so I want to ask the master."
Li Longji looked into the distance, but there was indescribable melancholy in his words.
"Your Majesty is too worried, and the Tang Dynasty is under the governance of Your Majesty, and it is solid."
The party gave Li Longji an affirmative reply.
"If this is the case, why is there always a hidden worry and uneasiness in my heart?"
Li Longji still did not give up.
If it weren't for their own troubles, then where would this worry come from?
"Your Majesty, I don't know what the past and future are."
The group couldn't help but laugh.
Has Your Majesty merged himself with those charlatans and the likes of the Divine Sticks?
"Don't blame the master, the master once told me that all the master's predictions and calculations are based on the accurate analysis of the known, not random speculation or oracles, and I know that I am just in a hurry and have no solution."
Li Longji also smiled.
This line was the same as before, and he believed in his arithmetic abilities, not some indescribable talent, which was what set him apart from the other ministers in charge of the celestial phenomena.
The line never invites credit, and never lies about causing trouble in the world.
But once he makes his judgment, it will be fulfilled.
Since today's party said that the Tang Dynasty is still solid, it is really solid.
"Your Majesty, the tea has been boiled, please sit down with the master!"
The Imperial Garden was soon there, and Colliers had already prepared a good tea in the tea room in the corner of the garden.
"Your Majesty has a heart, if this tea is not bad as the poor monk expected, it should still be the Cloud Fairy Wizard tea from last year, right?"
A line is not only proficient in astronomy and good at counting, but also a master of tea tasting, and it is difficult for tea in the world to escape his nose.
"The master is really powerful, this tea is the Cloud Fairy Trail tea sent by the ambassador sent by the King of the Western Regions Qiuzi today. Master taste it and see how this year's tea tastes compared to last year? ”
Li Longji stretched out his hand to signal the line.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After the line of salutes, he picked up the teacup brewed and handed over by Gaolis, sniffed it lightly on the tip of his nose, and then drank it all.
"Master, how?"
Li Longji's eyes were full of anticipation.
"Back to Your Majesty, you deserve to be the best in tea."
After drinking, I felt that my lips and teeth were fragrant, and the aftertaste was endless, and I couldn't help but praise it.
"Lux, go and give all the remaining Cloud Fairy Trail in the tea warehouse to the master!"
Li Longji knows that people who love tea have a heartbeat index for tea.
"Your Majesty, never!"
The group was a little flattered, and hurriedly raised their hands to decline.
"Master doesn't have to be polite, this is also my heart."
Li Longji refused the group's polite refusal.
"Then the poor monk should be respectful, it is better to obey his fate!"
The group clasped their hands together again, but their hearts were already so moved that they couldn't do it.
You must know that this Yunwu Fairy Trail tea is only known in the Datang market, and it has never been sold at all, but according to legend, the price of this tea in Qiuzi Country is already a sky-high price of one or two thousand Wen.
He was just a poor monk, how could he afford to drink such an expensive rare tea.
"Master, have you made any new discoveries in the recent study of celestial phenomena?"
Li Longji has always been very courteous to his advisers, especially his party.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister hasn't gained much from celestial phenomena recently, but the minister has recently discovered a genius."
The group thought about it, but still said what they found.
"Oh, a wizard?"
Li Longji's thirst for talents has always been deeply inherited from his great-grandparents and fathers. At this moment, when I heard that the master said that he had discovered a genius, his eyes instantly lit up.
"Indeed, Your Majesty."
The line had a modest face and a respectful attitude.
"Dare to ask the master, who is the genius who can make the master even amazing?"
Li Longji was also curious.
"Hey, Your Majesty, please forgive the poor monk for his incompetence, so far, I have never had the privilege of seeing the true face of this genius Lushan!"
The master sighed.
"And such wonders? Then may I ask the master, what kind of talent is this strange man that makes the master astonished? ”
Li Longji smiled slightly.
The more tense the moment, the more you can't mess up.
Since Master Yixing said that he had discovered a genius, he believed that in time, he would be able to find this person, just as he had painstakingly discovered and invited Master Yixing.
As the ruler of the empire, he discovered that patience and method were more important than talent.
This is especially true when it comes to recruiting talent.
"If it were anything else, the poor monk wouldn't be a genius, and the most amazing thing about this person was precisely the most complacent aspect of the poor monk in the past."
Speaking of this, Yixing couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He had heard Li Yan tell that story, but Li Yan had not seen the face of that person with his own eyes, but to their great shock, the other party seemed to have endless wonderful arithmetic problems in their hands, and as if they knew that they would not be able to solve them, after each question, they would send the solution method soon after. Every method of answering is also to make them stunned and amazed.
"Does the master mean that this person is also proficient in counting?"
Li Longji really attracted attention now, you must know that the arithmetic ability of the master and his party is unsurpassed by no one in the entire Tang Empire, even Li Yan, a doctor of the Guozi Supervision School who is known as the first person in the Tang Dynasty's arithmetic, has to be convinced.
"Yes, speaking of which, this person was first discovered by Li Yan, a doctor from the Arithmetic Academy."
After speaking, the party told Li Longji in detail about the ins and outs of Li Yan's discovery of this person.
"So amazing?"
Li Longji was even more curious about this sacredness that made the doctors of the Imperial Arithmetic Hall and the wizards of the Tang Dynasty math and arithmetic wizards ashamed of themselves, but how to make this great god who saw the head and the end of the dragon appear automatically?
Of course, you can't force it, although you may also see the great god, but that's not the style of his generation of Mingjun.
