It is said that when Emperor Xuanzong gave wine, Li Shizhi was still in the post of assassin in Shaanzhou, and as soon as the Jiannan Burning Spring arrived, he was fascinated by Li Shizhi, one of the eight immortals in the drink, and he was extremely fond of that jar of wine, just hugged and hid it in his study, as if he was hungry for something every day, but he was only willing to drink a small bowl to enjoy it, so he even wanted to taste it when his son saw his father looking at this wine so precious, but he was repulsed and resolutely refused.

Later, the son sued his wife, but it was Mrs. Li who was coquettish and stalked, so she helped her son grab a small bowl, and Li Shizhi was so distressed that she died.

And it's not over here, as the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and the son of a mouse will make a hole, this Li Shizhi likes to drink, the amount of alcohol is very large, and his son is naturally not inferior, so it's okay, since the old lady helped grab a bowl of wine, the son of the Li family immediately became addicted.

So in the following month, the father and son started a fight over the half jar of residual wine, no matter where Li Shizhi hid, his son could always turn it out and drink it secretly, and in the end, Li Shizhi was furious, and simply drank it in one go, which was the end of a family dispute.

But since then, Li Shizhi has been worried about this Jiannan Burning Spring, and he shyly asked the emperor's cousin to ask for another altar, of course, but although he is good at wine, he also cares about his face, and he is unwilling to ask Emperor Xuanzong for this, so he simply sent someone directly into Beijing to inquire in the Ministry of Rites to see where this wine is a tribute, and after inquiring, it is Shuzhou.

After getting this news, Li Shizhi was simply ecstatic with a scroll of poems, and he didn't care about the taboo of communication between the assassins, and he was about to write a letter to the Shuzhou Assassins, but the new ones were written, and he remembered that he didn't know who the Shuzhou Assassins were, so he inquired again, and it was bad, the Shuzhou Assassins were actually Zhang Jiuling's old man's east bed!

At that time, he was an official in the local area, and his political achievements were outstanding, so Emperor Xuanzong was ready to promote him to the history of Tongzhou Assassin, at this time Zhang Jiuling made a twist and turn on this matter, saying that Li Shizhi was a descendant of Prince Chengqian, and it was not suitable for the official town, even if he was promoted, he could only be a local subordinate official, or simply be an idle official in the court, such an important official position as a local assassin could not be appointed to him.

Logically speaking, Zhang Jiuling's recital makes sense, the clans of all dynasties were restricted from awarding local officials, but Emperor Xuanzong was very bold and didn't care about this, so he ignored Zhang Jiuling, and later appointed Li Shizhi as the assassin of Tongzhou. It was only later that this matter reached Li Shizhi's ears, so he didn't want to see Zhang Jiuling from the bottom of his bones, so Zhang Jiuling's son-in-law ...... Naturally, it's not a good thing!

Therefore, this letter to ask for wine naturally had to be stopped, but then he came up with another idea, that is, he directly sent his family to Shuzhou to buy wine - in his mind, since this Jiannan Burning Spring is a local specialty tribute, then there must be a lot of local people! Sure enough, when the subordinates of his family went, they really bought him twenty jars of the best Jiannan Burning Spring, and brought back a lot of allusions about this Jiannan Burning Spring from Jinyuan County.

Among them, there are many interesting stories about Li Xi.

In other words, most of the people who are good at wine have straightforward surnames, so after tasting the wine in his mouth and listening to a series of stories about Li Xi, the behind-the-scenes owner of Jiannan Yaochun, as well as those poems, this Li Shizhi not only admires Li Xi's daring to be a celebrity and man, but also likes the wine he brews, so he immediately felt that this Li Xi is really a wonderful person!

At this time, he had just stepped down from Shaanzhou and had never entered Chang'an, and of course he didn't know that Jiannan Shaochun could be bought in Chang'an. Li Xi, who brewed Jiannan Burning Spring again, was standing in front of him, but where was he willing to let it go? It's not for this poetry friend, it's just for the convenience of buying wine in the future, and I have to make friends quickly!

At that moment, Li Shizhi guessed what Li Xi was thinking, so he said that he had to pull him to make friends, and Li Xi immediately realized. Looking at Li Shizhi again, I feel that he doesn't look like a nervous abnormality, but I think it's really strange that this person likes to drink to this extent.

He felt that what had happened to him was a bit bizarre, let alone anyone else.

It is said that many officials in the courtyard just saw that Li Xi was actually in front of so many six-grade officials to receive the approval, which was already unhappy in their hearts, and later saw that Li Shizhi and Master Li actually took the initiative to find Li Xi to "ask brothers", which naturally made them even more envious, jealous and hateful, but this matter was too shocking, so the thoughts in everyone's hearts just now were similar to Li Xi, and they all felt that it must be Li Shizhi and Master Li who was playing with this Li Xi.

Although everyone also knows that this explanation is a bit unreliable, there is really no need for Master Li Shizhi to suddenly stand up and play with a small Jiupin sesame official, but other than that, there is no other explanation at all!

But when Li Shizhi finished explaining the reason, everyone stood in the courtyard and listened with their ears, and when they understood, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, and said in their hearts, Li Xi's shit luck is inevitably too good!

Actually, just because he brewed a unique wine, he was regarded as a confidant by this Li Shizhi Li, and he also asked for a brother!

Think about it, what does it mean to be a brother with Li Shizhi?

It means that you have a very strong relationship with the incoming Imperial Doctor!

What does Dr. Goshi do? That is specifically responsible for the impeachment of officials, and this Tang Dynasty is not as good as later generations, but the imperial historians dare to impeach Huang Yanjing, it can be said that even Huang Yanjing has to be afraid of three points, and naturally no one dares to offend the hundreds of officials in the court! Since then, there is such a big guy protecting you in the court, so what is the future...... Naturally, it's a long journey!

Moreover, Li Shizhi is not only a member of the imperial court, but also a cousin of His Majesty the Emperor today, and he is a brother with him, doesn't that mean...... Do you want to have some kinship with His Majesty the Emperor?

Obediently, there is no other benefit, and this alone is what an honor!

However, after thinking about it, everyone is not stupid, everyone can see the benefits here, but they all know that such good things will never run to their heads.

And, to be honest, even if such a good thing comes to you, Li Shizhi wants to be a brother with you, do you dare?

Li Shizhi is the head of the imperial family, and he is the cousin of His Majesty the Emperor today, with a noble status, people are swearing to you, and at most they have done a ridiculous thing, it's nothing, it's a big deal to scold the emperor's cousin for a nonsense, otherwise the penalty will be confiscated? That's probably it, after all, it's not a big crime, it's just a bit of a ridiculous nonsense.

But what about you? Li Shizhi said that he wanted to bow to you, so you bowed? But where did you put His Majesty the Emperor today?

I don't want to think about it, I want to get a little related to His Majesty the Emperor, are you worthy?

In other words, most of the officials standing in the courtyard at the moment are of five or six grades, but quite a few of them are not young, many of them have been officials for half their lives, and a few have been officials for more than seventy or eighty years, everyone is very shrewd, so they were jealous for a while, but they immediately turned over this bend.

At that moment, everyone finished talking about Li Shizhi, and everyone couldn't help but whisper for a while, and then they all quieted down again, and they all looked at Li Xi with their eyes, thinking that this matter has caught up, see how you get it!

excused himself, there is no doubt that he hurt the face of Li Shizhi, you call it not giving face, and you still don't give face in public, so you have to offend others, don't shirk...... Do you want His Majesty the Emperor to be your cousin?

Not to mention whether His Majesty the Emperor is happy or not, first ask yourself, do you have the guts?

I have to say that at this time, Li Xi is really a little difficult.

To say that for a straightforward character like Li Shizhi, Li Xi has always liked to make friends, so everyone talks about speculation and worships a brother, it's not a big deal, multiple friends and many roads, a good thing!

But the problem is that he is the head of the imperial family, and it is said that he is about to be promoted to be the imperial doctor, this is a big official! If you bow to him, will you immediately stuff the Chang'an people with a hat of "clinging to the powerful"?

But think about it again, it was he Li Shizhi who took the initiative to pull me to worship, yes, I'm afraid of a bird!

And just by taking advantage of this, wouldn't it be able to help yourself make a name for yourself?

At this time, he didn't hit Emperor Xuanzong like those officials who were watching, and I have to say that Li Xi had crossed over after all, although he also knew that at the moment, Emperor Xuanzong was really decisive and couldn't be offended, but he was not like other natives of the Tang Dynasty, he was already in awe of the emperor and the imperial power to the bones, and he didn't dare to offend at all. Ditch.

Besides, Li Xi never imagined that he would encounter this kind of thing before, and for a while, he really didn't have time to think about whether he and Li Shizhi would object to Emperor Xuanzong.

Whatever, if you want to be a brother, then let's be a brother, anyway, I won't suffer!

So at this moment, under the gaze of a group of officials, Li Xi quickly regained his indifferent demeanor, and said with a smile: "Since the brother of Mengshi does not give up, how dare the younger brother refuse?" ”

As soon as he said this, Li Shizhi laughed proudly, but many officials in the courtyard were dumbfounded.

In other words, did Li Xi really dare to agree?

For a while, only Li Shizhi's hearty laughter was left in this courtyard, and these officials just stared at each other one by one.

No matter how much they want to break their heads, how dare Li Xi agree, and he promised so brittlely!

Staring at Li Xi and Li Shizhi, those officials just felt that there was a headwind between their chests and abdomen!

That's right, this is about a brother's statement, but he Li Shizhi put it up himself, so what's wrong, at best, it's just looking for Li Shizhi to ask for guilt, how much does it have to do with Li Xi?

Besides, who doesn't know that His Majesty the Emperor today is a very large measure? With this little idea, he might just smile and laugh, and he wouldn't think about offense at all!

If this can be the case, the actual benefits of being a brother with Li Shizhi go without saying, it will be a huge gain in reputation, and it is enough to make people hot!

Just imagine, to become a brother with Prince Chengqian's grandson, His Majesty's cousin today, what kind of sensational news is this? Won't it spread all over the world in a few days? At that time, how famous will it be?

Moreover, even if the emperor disagrees after hearing about this, but this kind of thing is to participate in heaven and earth, he can't order Li Shizhi and Li Xi to destroy the brotherly alliance, right?

In this way, he had a slight bad impression from His Majesty the Emperor, but he was not afraid.

People who have been officials for many years understand a truth, they are not afraid that His Majesty the Emperor thinks you are not good, but they are afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will not know that there is such a small official as you under the rule of the Tang Dynasty!

As long as Your Majesty knows your name and is willing to deal with you, then the opportunity will come, even if there are some small misunderstandings and small dissatisfactions, as long as there is an opportunity to show your talents, what is this matter? On the contrary, once the misunderstanding is released, His Majesty the Emperor may appreciate you more, so this official will get up!

Therefore, when these officials in the courtyard came back to their senses from the fact that Li Xi lightly agreed to be a brother, and gradually speculated and understood the reason why Li Xi did this, they couldn't help but sigh one by one.

If you want to say that this envy, there is naturally it, and it is not small, and the most important thing is that it is jealous!

Why can't such a good thing be on your turn?

If you had known what was going on today, and if you had known that you could make a date with Lord Li Shizhi with just one jar of wine, then you should have found some good winemakers when you were in office and carefully made some good wine!

It's just that, looking at the intimate appearance of the two people holding hands, they also understand in their hearts that this jealousy seems to be really jealous, because Li Xi seems to not only make good wine, but also have a high poetic talent!

Shi Potian teases the autumn rain...... Well, this verse, wonderful wow!

At this time, in the midst of everyone's praise, envy, jealousy and sigh, Li Shizhi grabbed Li Xi's arm and was about to pull him away, "Let's go, the foolish brother is not busy entering Beijing today, you and I will make an appointment with the alliance first!" ”

Li Xi smiled when he heard this, and also said, "Okay, then the little brother will climb high!" ”

Li Shizhi laughed when he heard this, "What do you say about climbing high or not climbing, my Guanxian brother is also a wonderful person, why bother saying such boring words!" …… But the ugly thing is ahead, after we are about brothers, your wine will be sold to me openly! ”

Li Xi smiled heartily when he heard this, waved his hand, and said: "Why don't you sell anything, brother wants to drink, send someone to pick it up as soon as possible, or send someone to send a message, and the younger brother will send someone to send it to you!" ”

………… Just when everyone was stunned, the two of them really talked and laughed in the direction where Li Shizhi came.

At this moment, the director of the Ministry of Rites who was holding a thick stack of approvals in his hand didn't know what to say, he had served in the Ministry of Rites for many years, and he had been doing it for more than three years just because he was sent to the Chengxi Post House to issue approvals, but it was the first time he encountered this situation.

At that moment, he saw that Li Xi was really leaving with Li Shizhi, so he hurriedly coughed and shouted: "Li Xi ......"

He shouted this, and Li Xi stopped and looked back.

So the voice of the master in charge suddenly became more than half smaller, with a smile on his face, facing the frowning scrutiny of Lord Li Shizhi, he was slightly embarrassed, handed over a letter of approval in his hand, and stammered: "Uh, that, Li ...... Mr. Li, your approval. ”

Looking at the different attitudes before and after, the officials present couldn't help but look at him with disdain.

However, those who look down on others look down on others, but at this time, everyone has to admit in their hearts that in fact, they really want to make friends with Li Xi.

Because there is no need for much to worship in this post house, just today is enough to spread throughout Chang'an.

Li Xi, this kid, is going to be famous!
