Chapter 379 Traces of the Ancient Tea Tree
One person said: "Mr. Li is really good, we don't mean to make trouble for you, the main thing is that you will be busier tomorrow, and many sisters are in a hurry to rush back, so they can only squeeze in!" ”
The other person's attitude was even more eager, "With Mr. Li's words at the bottom, I won't have to be complained about when I return home!" I think it is difficult for Mr. Li to spare time a few days after the wedding, so the banquet will be waived, but we can remember all the visits one by one! ”
"I do what I say, and my brother Li Yi also needs to come to the door to return the gift? When the time comes, the two families will go with them. ”
Li Zhi's words made everyone feel quite comfortable, but they didn't delay because of this, and they walked away in a blink of an eye, leaving only Meng Shu and Xiaowen.
The second daughter was very eye-catching and replaced the maid who poured tea and water for a moment, and Li Zhi also came to the king of Changning County, and thanked him: "Thank you Lord Junwang for finding so much help for Zhengqing Wenqitang, and it will be much smoother to develop in the local area in the future!" ”
He digested the dissatisfaction of the king of Changning County with one sentence, and Changning laughed: "I heard that Mr. Li will be awarded the title of first-class duke tomorrow, not to mention that it will be me in the future, even your father-in-law, the king of Linhuai County, will not dare to ask you to call you the word adult in public, and you can't be called like this anymore!" ”
"It's this reason, Datang's value level rules are extremely strict, the first-class public is called an adult to the second-class candidate, I am afraid that it will be heard by someone with a heart, and it is a crime of disobedience and respect to play and invite, this matter must not be ignored!" King Ming smiled and picked up.
Li Zhi understood the stakes, and he didn't make more concessions on this point: "It's right to call you Lord Mingwang, right?" It is said that you want to call your father-in-law, but your old position has its particularity, although everyone knows our relationship, but first of all, we must take into account the solemn and public reputation of the three generations of court captains of the Ming Palace, and do not allow too many private names to contaminate it! ”
"As we agreed before, it's good to have a father-son relationship in our hearts." King Ming nodded with a smile and explained to Guan Lugong sideways, "This idea was proposed by the text, and it is a wise word after careful consideration, lest I mistake the reputation of the Ming Palace!" ”
Guan Lugong nodded yes, "Your three sons are not allowed to have family titles outside, Tingwei is in charge of the prison, administering justice, regardless of the prince, and can refute the emperor, the three princes put forward judgment opinions, and Yu Yuling has the supreme decision-making power, of course, this cannot lead to the loss of the word integrity!" ”
"Therefore, at the wedding celebration the day after tomorrow, the procedure of kneeling and bowing to the husband's in-laws is omitted, and the biological parents of the text can be worshiped at another opportunity.
"It is said that I am a conservative old stubborn, but from the perspective of the interests of the dynasty, if this matter is done well, the public can be righteous, and the heavens and people will feel it."
After a few conversations, King Ming assigned Li Zhi: "The formal procedures have been determined, and the next thing is all trivial matters, which will be taken into account by your own house." It's hard to come back, there will be more busy waiting for you tomorrow, tonight will temporarily take your vacation, first go to the backyard to visit Princess Taiping, arrange for someone to send it back properly, and then be busy with your own affairs, you don't have to worry about things here! ”
Li Zhi was secretly overjoyed, said goodbye to everyone, and went to the backyard alone.
Taiping and the old ancestors are discussing some spiritual issues around Xianfeng at the moment, Princess Taiping naturally doesn't know much about her, but the elder who came with her is a believer, and she came with the will of her mother-in-law, Princess Chengyang.
Seeing Li Zhi coming, this woman was also overjoyed, and finally had a chance to get out, so she didn't wait for when to leave at this time.
So she got up and looked at Li Zhi, blinking her eyes in concealment, Li Zhizhi smiled and said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, it's late at night now, if you don't go back, Xue Fu blames it, I can't afford it!" ”
Taiping immediately smiled on his face, "Don't say it, listening to the Xianfeng host sitting and talking, time flies, I almost forgot that there are children at home!" ”
Xian Feng immediately got up, "Please tell Chengyang Daoyou when you go back, Lao Jun Hall and Xian Feng are ready to listen at any time, at any time, any problem is not a problem!" ”
Xianfeng gave enough face, Taiping is actually very grateful, how to say that Princess Chengyang is also his mother-in-law, as the host of the old monarch's palace, the promise he gave can be said to be quite important.
At this time, the entourage of Xue Mansion, who had been waiting outside for a long time, also rushed over, and Li Zhi personally sent Taiping out of the gate, and the three brothers of Li Yu and their families rushed over when they heard the sound.
As soon as he stepped into the carriage, Taiping didn't forget to turn his head sideways and smile at Li Zhi, "Remember, I have made a lot of efforts in your marriage, think about how to repay it!" ”
Li Zhizao was accustomed to her princess tsundere, "The only things I can give the princess are those things in Zhengqing Wenqitang, it's a big deal for you to pick some." ”
Taiping is the master who has eaten and seen, and there are countless treasures and curiosities in the palace, where will he really care about his goods: "I don't want these, such as writing a poem in my name, but I want others to know my existence!" ”
Li Zhi laughed, "Why did Your Highness suddenly change your temperament?" Just handle it with care? The more you say that, the more I feel bottomless! ”
Taiping feigned anger and said: "I really don't know what to do! However, your poems can indeed be elegant, and there are still your masterpieces circulating among the people, but during this time, Li Zhengwen only cared about business deceit, and no more works appeared! ”
With that, she turned her head to say goodbye to the group, and the expression on her face changed to a smile.
Seeing off the goddess, Li Cheng stepped forward and whispered, "Why do I think the princess has taken a fancy to you?" Is there an adultery? ”
Li Zhi pushed him and scolded him: "This is nonsense? No measure! ”
"Shhhh Even my father has never neglected her, and the communication between you is casual, but I don't know that our cousins dare not look at her directly. ”
The second Li Ling stepped forward to help, "If this is the case, except for his two own brothers in the Taiping generation, others will not treat each other seriously." She seems to have changed her temperament recently, and she is willing to come to the door without saying anything, and she has a smile on her face. ”
Li Yu came over and blamed him, he was very dignified, but when he turned his head to face Li Zhi, he asked for help in a low voice with another expression: "Brother Zhengwen, the kind of colored diamond for the princess is not there yet?" Give my brother a piece, I'm about to go to the Chengwen County Mansion to propose, your sister-in-law Yuanwan treats me well, how can I have a decent dowry gift! ”
But he didn't know that the other two brothers were eavesdropping, and when they heard this, they were all in good spirits.
"I have long set it aside for my family, brother, I don't have much else, but there is no shortage of jade and diamond jewelry." Knowing that the two of them were more interested in setting off the atmosphere, Li Zhi was in a very good mood.
"Big brother, you can do it, if you have a new one, you will forget about the other two sisters-in-law." Li Ling rarely showed a joking mentality, and after Li Zhi arrived at the Ming Palace, his temperament changed.
Of course, this is closely related to the secret position he is engaged in, and until this time, Li Zhi still does not know which department this person is in, only that he does not belong to the military department or any famous army.
Moreover, with his remarkable characteristic of not showing his heart, he was only thirty years old and did not marry, which was very rare at that time.
"The other two sisters-in-law have too! Including the third brother's wife, and the second brother's future wife have one each, I will only give you the original stone, there is the old Ming King, find Master Tan to cut it out early. ”
The old Ming king, Li Tong and Li Xianyan, now go to the warehouse outside the Xingqing Palace almost every day, and they are very familiar with Master Tan, and sometimes they can speak more effectively than Li Zhi's mouth.
A group of people returned with a smile, and Li Zhi needed to go back to the inner courtyard to greet the old ancestor and Xianfeng first, and only had a brief conversation with his friends in the front yard.
Who knew that the three of them had gone to rest on their own, but the old Ming King pulled him and said something: "Yu Taiwei's eldest disciple Ziyi Zi Handian sent a message that the ancient tea tree has achieved results in finding its roots and fulfilling the source, and the ancient tea tree has been found and protected more than 800 plants, of which about thirty percent belong to Zhengqing Wenqitang, and he will bring some samples tomorrow." ”
Li Zhi was very surprised, "just my "Book of Tea" has been written for most of it, that is, because there is still a lack of understanding in the tasting of products, if the theory is put into practice, there must be enough ancient tea verification, in order to be called the world's tea products are widely collected, and its use in the world, but also from its beginning, once the compilation is complete, it can be called a complete and comprehensive tea monograph. ”
"There is a unique epoch-making monograph on tea science in the present world, once mature, it can be regarded as an agricultural work, and it is also a comprehensive treatise on tea culture, which will play a huge role in promoting the development of tea culture in the Tang Dynasty and upgrading ordinary tea to a wonderful cultural and artistic function." The text, can you give me some of the drafts first, you know that in addition to calligraphy, I have a preference for tea culture! ”
