Chapter 103: Brotherhood

Hearing the young officer say this, Li Yi couldn't help but have a short circuit in his mind.

What the? 'Third brother'? Oh! Yes, Li Yi is the third in line, I think this person can't be Li Yi's younger brother Li Pian who is on duty in the palace, right?

Looking at his eyebrows, he is indeed somewhat similar to the champion Li Yi, but he is much stronger in stature.

Li Yi hurriedly stood up, and didn't know what to do for a while, so he had to say, "You... What are you doing here? ”

The young lieutenant said with a smug face: "Isn't the third brother welcoming me?" This trip was ordered by His Majesty. ”

"Your Majesty remembers that you have made outstanding achievements, so let me follow the envoy of Shao Palace to visit the third brother to relieve my brother's homesickness, haha, I shouldn't surprise you!"

Li Yi nodded secretly, the young man in front of him must be Li Pian.

This time, he made a great contribution to quelling the rebellion, and the emperor loved the house and Wu, so he specially sent him to visit him. If he hadn't reported himself to his home just now, he would almost have been able to react.

Li Yi's face quickly turned to joy, and he couldn't help but ask kindly, "Are your parents okay?" How's it going at home? ”

Seeing him asking, Li Pian said excitedly: "My parents are very good, and my family is not bad, and what is even more gratifying is that my sister has just given birth to a boy, and my brother-in-law is so happy that I can't keep my mouth shut." Our family loves this kid! ”

Li Yi smiled slightly: "Oh! That's good. It seems that I, who is an uncle, have to break the bank! Hehe! Hehe! ”

"That's, I gave my nephew a long-lived golden lock, and several porcelain dolls from Yunyang, no matter what your third uncle who is a local official, can't be worse than me!"

Li Yi smiled indifferently and turned serious: "Okay, you don't have to bother with the things I send." In the evening, you will come to my inner house, and I will ask you more about some things! You go down first! ”

Li Pian was full of enthusiasm and wanted to talk to Li Yi again, but seeing that he not only didn't talk about family affection at all, but gave a serious eviction order, he couldn't help but show an indignant expression on his face, muttered, and reluctantly walked down.

Shao Tingjuan saw Li Yi's reckless approach, and he was a little reluctant to go, so he said in a slightly reproachful tone: "Runzhi! You brothers haven't seen each other for a few months, and my brother finally saw you, and I want to confide in you with a belly of affection, how can you not tell a trace of affection! ”

"Look at you, you have ruined a good atmosphere, Li Pian doesn't know how to complain!"

Li Yi said in his heart, this is the first time I have seen this Li Pian. In front of so many people, it's not the time to talk about family affection. Otherwise, if you can't cope with it, it will be full of flaws, so it's better to find an occasion in private.

Seeing Shao Tingjuan was slightly stunned, he hurriedly explained: "Lord Shao, if I don't care about brotherhood, now we are talking about serious court affairs, how can we just let private affairs disturb it!" ”

"What's more, the envoy came all the way to Yunnan, of course, he has to stay longer, and there is time to talk about family affection or something, and it is not bad at this time!"

Shao Tingjuan heard Li Yi say this, so he had no choice but to smile and stop talking.

Of course, there can be no sloppiness in entertaining the imperial envoys.

Li Yi set up the banquet in the luxurious and magnificent 'Shangpin Xuan', of course, this is the purpose.

Lin Qingliang has upgraded the place, adding dozens of luxurious guest rooms, a high-standard bathing center, and a variety of other delightful entertainment venues.

It not only provides a variety of rich and delicious dishes, but also can drink fragrant tea and wine here, and there are beauties from all over the world to serve closely, it is not too much to say that it is a rich and gentle township.

Therefore, in just two months, it attracted merchants and wealthy people from all over the world, and soon became the largest, most complete and most popular restaurant in Yunnan.

Of course, due to the prosperity of this restaurant, it has also brought rich returns to itself, and it has only been open for less than two months, and it has obtained a net profit of more than 10,000 taels of silver, and it is very easy to recover all the investment.

Accompanied by everyone, when Shao Tingjuan and the others walked into this magnificent restaurant, they were all shocked by the beautiful scene here.

What they never expected was that in such a remote and desolate place in Yunnan, there would be such a luxurious and elegant restaurant, and the business would be so prosperous.

This shows from one side that Yunnan is still very developed in trade and the people are very wealthy.

Li Yi specially chose the largest and most luxurious room on the third floor as the place to receive the envoys.

The interior environment is elegant, bright and spacious, and all the antique rosewood carved furniture.

The beautiful high-end clean tableware, coupled with several famous calligraphy and paintings that are appropriate to the occasion, set off this elegant room more cosy and warm.

Everything here made Shao Tingjuan, who seemed to pay attention to the taste of life, very satisfied, and the first thing he did after sitting down was to praise the elegant environment here.

When dozens of dishes were brought up one by one, Shao Tingjuan and Le Fan's eyes were straight.

Li Yi was not surprised by their reaction at all, knowing that the dishes made here were all carefully prepared according to the recipes he provided.

Even the emperor Liu Yan himself may not be blessed to enjoy it, let alone them, the emperor's minions.

Maybe Shao Tingjuan and the others had a limited amount of wine, and they really couldn't enjoy the high quality wine here, so the two of them just tasted it.

But they don't miss the delicious food on the table, and the wine table here is equipped with a hand-tossed turntable, so you don't have to get up to enjoy the delicious food on the table.

For the people of this era, it is undoubtedly very novel.

Therefore, the two of them could not resist the temptation of delicious dishes at all, and they almost kept turning the dial, eager to catch all the delicious dishes here.

After the wine was thirty years old and the dishes were five flavors, Shao Tingjuan probably ate almost enough, and then he was full of praise and said: "The dishes in this restaurant are all rare and delicious, but I don't know who made it, even I, the internal official who specializes in taking care of His Majesty's daily life, can't say anything, it's really ingenious!" ”

"Huh! Such a peerless delicacy, if His Majesty tastes it, his old man will definitely be a lot happier, and he will not have to be depressed all day long. ”

Li Yi was surprised when he heard this: "Oh! Has Your Majesty been unhappy lately? Is there any trouble that can haunt our saints? ”

At this time, Shao Tingjuan, who was already half-drunk, frowned, looked at Li Yi strangely and said: "The news of the unfortunate death of His Royal Highness Wanwang on the expedition to Annan, don't you Yunnan know anything about it?" ”

Li Yi shook his head and said in deliberate surprise: "What? How could His Royal Highness Wan Wang die, it is really shocking, I don't know what the details are, please tell the Shao Palace envoy to listen to it. ”
