Chapter 119: The Time of Harvest Has Come

The fragrance of tea is overflowing, not strong, but this fragrance is unique.

At this time, many people were attracted by this fragrance, and their eyes watched Li Lingyue carefully pour the tea in the teacup into the cup, and the tea residue was left in the teacup.

This is a kind of tea soup with a bit of turbidity, but it is crystal transparent, and at first glance, it gives people a comfortable visual enjoyment.

This...... It's also tea.

Many people's perception of tea has been shaken.

In this era when tea is still boiled, the kind of turbid tea is the tea soup they know, and the fragrance like this, and such an elegant method of making tea, and then this amber orange and yellow liquid, suddenly subverted all their understanding.

It's just that......

The elegance of Fang Cai's expression alone, as well as this refreshing fragrance, which makes you feel energetic when you smell it, is enough to make people have the urge to taste it.

Wu Zetian looked at her daughter motionlessly, and she could subtly see the details of Li Lingyue's fingers trembling slightly when she picked up the tea cup because she was scalded by the hot tea, and this detail was enough to impress any mother who was even ruthless.

She saw that the sweat on Li Lingyue's forehead was gathering, slipping quietly down the bridge of her nose, then condensed at the tip of her small nose, and finally fell to the ground quietly.

Princess Tea ......

Wu Zetian likes Buddha, people who like Buddha like quiet, like plain and elegant, like that kind of faint feeling, even if she usually eats and drinks, she also tries not to eat meat, so Wu Zetian actually doesn't like to eat tea, because the tea in this era is really thick, and the taste is too strong, but now, Wu Zetian can't help but be shocked.

Because she smelled the fragrance of tea, and this fragrance of tea, at first glance, was so refreshing.

Wu Zetian is old after all, and when people are old, they will inevitably lose energy. But she had too many things to do, too many things to think about, and this sudden energy burst made her look forward to this tea even more.

Li Lingyue held a small cup of tea and cautiously stepped into the imperial case.

Wu Zetian was busy getting up, she didn't want her daughter to work a little more, so she was busy taking the tea.

The aroma of tea is stronger, but this aroma is not like incense, although it is strong, it is still that kind of fragrance. Wu Zetian leaned up with the tip of his nose, took a light breath, and suddenly ...... Refreshed, Wu Zetian's eyes lit up, she carefully pursed her lips on the rim of the cup, and took a sip of tea gently, very lightly.

A slight trace of bitterness came to the tip of his tongue, Wu Zetian frowned slightly, but ...... In an instant. A rush of aftertaste slammed into her taste buds, a sharp sensation permeated her body, the tea entered her throat, and the aftertaste began to reverberate. A mellow and smooth sensation appears on the tip of the tongue.

This feeling is indescribable, but there is a faint, faint sweetness, but there is some bitterness. There is a fragrance between the mouths.

Partial life is this indescribable feeling, but it gives people an endless aftertaste.

Wu Zetian continued to drink.

At this time, the taste is different again, because the taste buds have already tasted that trace of bitterness. So the bitter taste has dissipated, and with it a strong mellow and smooth feeling.

Wu Zetian's eyes widened, and a hint of surprise flashed.

Besides, she rarely eats tea, but now that she eats it at first glance, the strong impact makes her spirit seem refreshed, and the half-day birthday celebration makes her tiredness swept away at this moment.

"Good tea, there is such a good tea in the world, Yue'er, it's delicious, this is princess tea, but was it created by Qin Shaoyou?"

Qin Shaoyou stood up stubbornly and said, "The minister is very ashamed, this is the tea that the minister made unintentionally. ”

Wu Zetian hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Is there anything else, give Zhongqing a taste." ”

Then, she took Li Lingyue's hand, and her eyes were even more kind, this gift was not valuable to Wu Zetian, but it was unique.

Li Lingyue is not good at stubble, and she knows that this time is the time to use her killer weapon: "If the mother emperor likes to eat, it is good for the sons to brew it for the mother emperor every day." Qin Shaoyou also plans to make tea with his sons, even the mother likes it, and it will definitely sell well in the future. Mother ...... Are you looking at the philistine? Erchen is not really rare, but it's just that Erchen always wants to do something to share the worries of the mother......"

These words, needless to say, of course, were taught by Qin Shaoyou, the so-called two bed bugs together, the smell is the same, Li Lingyue tasted the sweetness from the popsicle, the profits of this tea may be more lucrative in the future, but if you want to specialize in this kind of tea, if you don't have Wu Zetian's approval, there is no guarantee after all, so at this time, while Wu Zetian is happy, it is natural to hurry up and settle the matter.

Business, in fact, in this era is not lowly, in the early Tang Dynasty, the status of businessmen was even very high, after Li Yuan in Taiyuan uprising, a group of aristocratic businessmen recruited troops and horses to make a huge contribution, including Wu Zetian's martial arts. At that time, the status of the family was very high, and it basically controlled many businesses, such as the Cui family, which once controlled many businesses in Jiangbei. After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the position of merchants was consolidated and even protected by law, and the part of the Tang law involving merchants was extremely perfect. There are few types of commercial taxes, the burden is light, there is no assessment and donation, and local officials dare to set up checkpoints and sentinels privately, and they will be severely punished.

What's more, because there were many foreign wars in the past few years, due to the expedition of thousands of miles, many supplies and the transportation of war booty were carried out by merchants, and the soldiers were equipped with and maintained weapons, food and grass by themselves.

So Li Lingyue wants to do some tea business, at this time, it is actually not excessive, you must know that among these people here, which one of them is not from a high-ranking family, but the family is in business? is like Cui Jing, their Cui family has a lot of business.

Wu Zetian smiled, but he glanced at Qin Shaoyou, and there seemed to be a deep meaning in his eyes. Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields, no matter how stupid Wu Zetian is, he knows the wisdom of this kind of tea, rather than letting Qin Shaoyou partner with people from five surnames and seven families, it is better to let his own daughter get this income.

What's more, now that the rumors have been clarified, Li Lingyue asked to do some business with Qin Shaoyou, if he didn't allow it, there would be an ambiguous suspicion of the two, the more he pretended that he didn't care, the more he could completely dispel the rumors, so Wu Zetian said: "If you have a heart, then you might as well let it go." ”

Li Lingyue was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Emperor Xie." ”

As he was talking, many eunuchs came in and began to make tea for the ministers present, they are all fine people, and their hands and feet are very dexterous, so they can roughly learn Li Lingyue's ** points, and after a while, many people's cases are put on cups of tea.

Everyone couldn't wait, and they all raised their glasses and drank.

Cui Jing picked up the cup slowly, looking at the crystal liquid, without the slightest impurity, he drank it in one gulp, and suddenly, the obscure old face suddenly changed.

Cui Jing suddenly began to regret a little, this tea ...... It is a hundred times better than any tea he has eaten before, whether it is the taste or the feeling of eating tea, there is an impulse that makes him fascinated, if Wu Zetian feels delicious, but for him, this tea gives him a different meaning.

If...... What a pleasure it is to eat tea like this in your own cottage, while reading a book, or chatting with friends.

Cui Jing began to slowly reminisce the aftertaste of the tea in his mouth, and after a long time, he began to regret it again, knowing that this Qin Shaoyou had such tea, it was better to win him over and do tea trading with him, with the strength of the Cui family, coupled with the level of this tea, I am afraid that it will not be long before it will be popular inside and outside Luoyang.

He was a little sorry and stunned, but the fragrance brought by this tea was still not gone, Cui Jing had to look at Qin Shaoyou deeply, and couldn't help but admire this young man.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

It's just that now, obviously, it's not the time to admire, because Cui Jing knows that she still has something to do.

Even if Qin Shaoyou and Shangguan Wan'er have no personal relationship, but now there is a lot of trouble outside, and when the time comes, someone will definitely make a fuss about Qin Shaoyou's beating of Zhou Xing, Wu Zetian asked Qin Shaoyou to pay homage to himself, implying that he should come out to solve this problem, and things can't be troubled anymore, and if they make trouble again, it will not be good for everyone.

So Cui Jing stood up slowly, looked at Wu Zetian respectfully, and said, "Sage, the minister has a word." ”

"Really?". Wu Zetian smiled faintly, asked someone to make another cup of tea, rubbed his fingers on the teacup, and said, "Aiqing has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Cui Jing said: "I heard that Qin Shaoyou beat Zhou Xing, the autumn official, but I don't know what happened? ”

Cui Jing's sudden attack made other people's actions of drinking tea stop abruptly, and everyone shook up their spirits and thought about it.

Wu Zetian's face couldn't see joy and anger, and he said lightly: "Zhou Xing was convicted, doesn't Cui Qing know?" ”。

Cui Jing shook his head and said: "Although Zhou Xing is guilty, even if his crime is heinous, but he has not been punished by the imperial court, he is still an autumn official and a servant, Qin Shaoyou beats people, it is a violation of discipline, if this matter is not punished, how to convince the public, if everyone follows, how does this discipline exist?" ”

Speaking of this, Cui Jing glanced at Qin Shaoyou before continuing: "Besides, Qin Shaoyou is a scholar, and the scholar is noble, such a move is insulting to Sven, it really shouldn't be, I implore the sage to remove Dr. Qin Shaoyou from his position." ”

Wu Zetian pursed his lips and was silent.

Cui Jing knew that the time for bargaining had come.

Of course, he is not a very strong person, in this Great Zhou Dynasty, a person who is not good at compromise has died a hundred times a long time ago. The Cui family can continue today, not only by relying on the family business of Nuoda, but also by giving people enough deterrence, and at the same time, ...... Also relying on the art of compromise.
