Chapter 281: Outside the Examination Room

"Your Majesty, what is this?" Empress Changsun picked up the tea delivered by the palace maid, and her hand was cold and dark, not like the tea she usually drinks, so she asked Li Shimin suspiciously.

"Oh, this is the drink that Lu Guogong sent to me last night, iced sour plum soup, clearing heat and quenching thirst, and it tastes good, queen, you can try it." Li Shimin chuckled and put down the score in his hand, turned his head to Empress Changsun and said: "Listen to Lu Guogong's words, these, but the recipe prepared by the willow one, if you drink it often, it is good for the body. ”

Saying that, Li Shimin also picked up a cup and took a sip, refreshing it, in this hot weather, it tastes really good.

"Well, since it was made by Mr. Liu, it must be good if you think about it," Seeing the satisfied expression on Li Shimin's face, Empress Changsun also gently brought the tea bowl to her mouth, took a sip, closed her eyes, and tasted it slowly.

"Liu Yiyi, this kid, doesn't do serious things, he specializes in this kind of biased path," couldn't help but take another sip, Li Shimin said: "The plaything is demoralized, it really violates the teachings of the sage, it's a pity that he is a good learner." ”

"What the emperor said is very true," Seeing Li Shimin sipping the drink obtained by Liu Yiyi's biased way, and reprimanding Liu Yiyi softly, Empress Changsun couldn't help but slightly hook the corners of her mouth, she put the tea bowl in her hand on the table, and said softly to Li Shimin: "But this person has his own ambitions, Mr. Liu has no intention of career, and he likes it, but we can't force it." Moreover, this sour plum soup is indeed good to drink, especially in this hot and dry weather, it can always bring a trace of tranquility to the heart, and the concubines thank the emperor for his generous gifts. ”

"Huh?" Hearing the teasing meaning in Empress Eldest Sun's words, Li Shimin shook his head and chuckled.

Liu Yiyi once saved the life of Empress Changsun, but seeing that Empress Changsun was so biased towards him, Li Shimin didn't care much, and Empress Changsun's words seemed to be very reasonable.

'Liu's waterwheel', 'Liu's plough', and the 'shovel' seem to be small and biased, and they are despised by literati and saints, but they really play an immeasurable role in the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

"The queen is also proficient in music, let's take a look at the "Liang Zhu" flute song left by Liu Yiyi for Lu Guogong last night." Li Shimin raised his arm lightly and handed the score in his hand to the eldest grandson empress.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Empress Eldest Sun bowed her head slightly, took the score with both hands, and said softly: "Since I heard Mr. Liu's song "Liang Zhu" in Fangfu last night, the concubine still can't forget it. ”

Unfolding the score gently, Empress Eldest Sun's gaze fell on the syllables on the paper.

"Yes, from the first time I met, to now, Liu Yiyi gives me the feeling that there is nothing he can't do, and he is a very interesting and confident little guy." Li Shimin drank the soup in the bowl in one gulp, and said to Empress Changsun with a chuckle: "There is also a very good way to deal with things, like this incident of Hou Junji, it is enough to see his ability to deal with things, since Hou Junji did not come back, he has already laid out a routine for him, let Hou Junji go in step by step, such a person, sometimes, is also terrible." ”

"Huh?" Listening to Li Shimin's last sentence, Empress Changsun couldn't help but take her eyes off the score, looked up at Li Shimin and said: "The emperor is too worried, judging from the concubines, Mr. Liu is also a kind person, no quarrel with others, no quarrel with things, no trouble, no trouble, if it weren't for that Wu drunken sword this time, Mr. Liu would never find such a big enemy for himself in order to protect himself." ”

A flat-headed ordinary man, if he wasn't forced to be in a hurry, who would provoke a military secretary in vain?

Li Shimin glanced at Empress Changsun, understood the meaning of Empress Changsun's words, and nodded lightly, although Liu Yiyi's methods made people a little afraid, but in general, he was still a peaceful person, and the only drawback was that he was a little fond of money and did not have much ambition.

"Your Majesty, let the concubines play a song for the emperor." Empress Eldest Sun put down the music score in her hand, asked for a white jade bamboo flute to the next person, and said softly to Li Shimin.

"The queen is willing to play, but I can't learn from myself!" Li Shimin chuckled and glanced at the eldest grandson empress, and said, "Empress, please!" I'm here, listen up! ”

Nodding and smiling at Li Shimin, Empress Changsun put the jade flute to her mouth, looked at the sheet music opened on the table, and played it piece by piece, although the music played was not as moving as Liu Yiyi's last night, but it also had a unique flavor.

After coming out of the martial arts hall and having some breakfast, Liu Yiyi led Liu Wuchen and Old Man Cheng to resign and rushed all the way back to Sanyuan.

Although he knew that Liu Erjo would not have any problems, Liu Yiyi still couldn't help but be a little worried, Liu Yiyi felt like a parent outside the college entrance examination room, knowing that he couldn't help, but he would still wait outside bitterly.

When they arrived at Sanyuan County, it was almost noon and they didn't go home, so Liu Yiyi and Liu Wuchen rushed straight to the examination room near the county school.

This afternoon, is the last of the township examination, at this time, the examination room has been full of crowds, all of the candidates' parents or relatives, regardless of the scorching sun, just waiting at the door of the examination room, and those guarding the door of the officials standing, there is really a bit of the atmosphere outside the 21st century college entrance examination.

Liu Yiyi rode Liu Wuxian to stand on the periphery of the crowd, carefully searching in the crowd, if he guessed correctly, today, Lao Liu and Liu He, the couple, must have arrived outside this examination room.

"Young master, the old man and the old lady are over there." Liu Wuchen got out of the carriage, and when he got close to Liu Yiyi, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the group of people not far from the examination room, Lao Liu who was in a wheelchair, Liu He who was pushing a wheelchair, and Zhang Chuchu, who had been teasing Liu Xiaohui.

Seeing them, Liu Yiyi felt at ease, chuckled and turned over the donkey, gave Liu Wuchen the effect of Liu Wuchen, and walked quickly towards Liu Laoshi and them.

"Husband!" Zhang Chuchu seemed to feel something, and was the first to see the existence of Liu Yiyi, so he called out softly, and happily walked towards Liu Yiyi.

"Chu Chu, be careful, beware of the child in your belly." Liu Yiyi held Zhang Chuchu with both hands, stroked her little hand, and whispered to her.

"Got it, husband." Zhang Chuchu nodded lightly, letting his hands be held by Liu Yiyi, feeling the warmth and concern coming from Liu Yiyi's two big hands, because there was a white veil to cover her face, so that people could not see her delicate face at the moment, but Liu Yiyi knew that Chu Chu's little face must be very red now.

Holding Chu Chu's little hand, the little couple returned to Liu Laoshi's approach, bent over to greet them, and the family met again.

"Dad, mother, there are at least two hours before the finale, let's find a place to eat first, this hot day is really not suitable for staying longer." Liu Yiyi saw that Lao Liu and Liu He's heads were sweating vigorously, so he persuaded softly on the side: "After the township test is over, it's not too late for us to come again." ”

"It's okay, when I came, I asked Xiaoxi to prepare some food and iced sour plum soup, and now I put it in the carriage, if you are hungry, go and eat some." Lao Liu wiped the sweat on his head, stubbornly refused to leave, and Liu He and him also had a general expression.

Seeing them like this, Liu Yiyi shook his head helplessly, turned around and told Liu Wuchen to go to the nearby wine to buy some wine and food, the things brought by the family, after a morning of stuffiness, it was already a blessing that there was no sourness, where can I still eat, Liu Yiyi didn't want the family to go back with a stomach for a while.

As for the chilled sour plum soup, it is estimated that it is mostly prepared for Liu Ertiao, otherwise looking at Lao Liu's lips so chapped, why don't you see them drink a cup?

took out two oilcloth umbrellas from the carriage, stretched them out to Lao Liu and his wife, and Chu Chu covered a shade to avoid the scorching sun poisoning them, and asked Xiaoxi to go to the carriage that Lao Liu came to get some sour plum soup, and gave Liu Xiaohui to drink it first, looking at Liu Xiaohui's little face that was reddened by the sun, Liu Yiyi was distressed for a while, exposed to the sun in this scorching sun, if this little girl was given a whole heat stroke, what would be good?

"Thank you, big brother!" A bowl of chilled sour plum soup entered Liu Xiaohui's little belly, and the little girl wiped her mouth with her sleeve and thanked Liu Yi with satisfaction.

"Well, Xiao Hui is good!" Liu Yiyi patted the little girl's head dotingly, and then turned his head to Lao Liu and said, "Dad, mother, Chu Chu, well, and Xiaoxi, you all drink some, so as not to get poisoned by heat and get any symptoms." Don't worry, if it's not enough, I'll let Wuchen go home and get some later, anyway, it's not too far from home, and when Nijo comes out, he will definitely be indispensable. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Lao Liu and Liu He's to object, Liu Yiyi opened his mouth and instructed Xiaoxi to take all the sour plum soup on the carriage, personally poured a cup for everyone, and watched them drink the soup, then he was relieved.
