Chapter Fifty-Six: Anecdotes from the Teahouse

If my sister lives to this day, I will have my own sister to love, and I will give her all the best things in the world.

Huai'an is where her mother, the queen of the main palace, is located, and at that time, the father and emperor loved her mother very much, and she will definitely spoil Huai'an to the sky, so as not to let Rongqu dominate.

When my sister died, my father was so sad, and now between the white horses and flowing water, it has gradually faded away.

Presumably now in the heart of the father, he is looking forward to the child in Concubine Rong's belly.

When the three of them arrived at the teahouse and sat down, Xiao Er came up to greet him, Xiao Er had a snow-white sweat towel on his shoulders, and his hair was tied into a pill with a cloth, which was very neat and clean.

Xiao Er came up and said

"The three guest officers are sitting, this is a lively day today, the big guys have gone to other places to have fun, it is rare for someone to come, I guess you are willing to be clean when you come."

Hearing this, the three of them all looked around, and sure enough, where they were sitting, there was not a single person around.

Xiao Er asked them to order food again, and everyone had dinner, and they agreed that a sip of tea was enough.

Wei Linghao didn't know what good tea was here, so he let the two of them choose.

Chang Yue rolled up his sleeves and asked the little two what special tea they had here.

"We have some of the best gyokuro in the region, with a crisp taste and a lingering aftertaste. The best thing about Gyokuro is that it's not as refreshing as other teas, and it's night, and you won't be able to sleep when you go back. ”

"That's it."

"Gyokuro, it sounds like the name of the wine."

Gu Chao just said casually, but Xiao Er came to the spirit.

"It wasn't wine before, but then the person who made the wine died, and only tea remained."

Gu Chao likes to listen to stories the most.

"How?"

Xiao Er looked left and right, but found that several groups of guests had come in.

"It's a long story, there will be a chance in the future, besides, I have to go over there to greet guests, otherwise the proprietress will deduct my salary."

As he spoke, he put on the sweat towel and was about to leave.

"Wait."

Wei Lingmiao stopped him.

"There are more and more people now, can you sit on the second floor?"

"Yes, yes, but there are private rooms above, and the tea fee is higher."

"Let's go to the private room, and we'll bring the tea later."

"Okay!"

The shopkeeper was overjoyed, there are not many people who love tea now, and now there are people who are willing to spend more money to sit in a private room, and the proprietress will praise him for his merit in soliciting guests.

After the three of them changed places and sat down again, Wei Linghao was the first to speak.

"Get down to business."

Gu Chao knew that he was playing and mistimed, so he actively spoke.

"Where are we going tomorrow? Chang Yu has gained the trust of the Li family today, will he continue to go tomorrow? ”

"No, let's go today, just to show our sincerity to help him, they don't seem to have officially started to act, the old man of the Li family said, when there is a need, he will call us to go."

"What are they waiting for? Isn't this the sooner the better? ”

Gu Chao asked.

"The competition hasn't officially started yet, they're waiting."

Wei Linghao said firmly.

"Oh? What are you waiting for? ”

"Wait for the imperial court's security envoy."

"Ancha envoy?"

"Oh, yes, you're from Kyoto, what kind of official is this Anchashi?"

Chang Yue remembered this and took the initiative to ask Wei Lingmao.

"It's not a big official, it's just a messenger."

"Is it just a matter of such a big deal, just send someone to listen to the dispatch?"

"In our eyes, it is a big deal, and there are many things in the court every day, and we will not focus on these things."

Gu Chao thought about it, and suddenly thought of a trick.

"Since this is the case, isn't it this imperial businessman, as long as there are human efforts, anyone can handle it?"

"Naturally, if the imperial court had planned to set things, it would not be our turn to intervene."

"Then if it's a wicked bad guy who takes over the salt farm this time, they don't care?"

Gu Hao frowned slightly.

Chang Yu sighed

"You don't understand this, let alone a salt village, so many corrupt officials and corrupt officials do evil, bully the weak, it's not that no one cares, it's all an ordinary thing."

Gu Chao remembered that his father used to be very disdainful of some wealthy nobles, although they were well protected in the Qingzhu Pavilion.

But sometimes when she sees those younger brothers and sisters who have lost their fathers and mothers at a very young age and have been brought up the mountain, she understands.

The outside world is not like her living in the mountains, which is so comfortable and carefree.

Gu Chao once longed for Kyoto and wanted her senior brother to take her own Kyoto to play, but every time she mentioned it to her father, she was sternly vetoed.

Maybe Dad didn't want to see this too soon.

She had also heard that when the children of Kyoto were riding horses in the streets, and when the horses went crazy and hurt the people, they didn't even bother to look at the injured people, just caring about whether their beloved horses were hurt.

Gu Chao suddenly remembered that in the evening, Ling Zhuo asked himself, who was the big customer who was rejected by his father.

Gu Hao patted and healed.

"Alas, do you still remember, a few months ago, a person came, and asked to see my father by name, or you received it, but then I heard that it was refused. Who is it? ”

Wei Linghao was still thinking about how to raise this question, so Gu Chao took the initiative to help him ask.

It happened that Xiao Er brought the jade dew tea again, Wei Lingmao took a sip, and his heart felt very bright, and the irritability of the afternoon was swept away.

Chang Yu also quickly poured himself a glass of gyokuro.

"Well, I'm still wondering, guess who that person is?"

Wei Lingmiao's lips touched the tea surface lightly, and his eyes were also staring at the floating broken tea foam on the tea surface, but his attention was all on Chang Yu's words.

"Listen to you, is you a person with a lot of background?"

Chang Yu took a big sip, deliberately lowered his voice mysteriously, and couldn't hide the excitement in his tone.

"It's the eaves of the Kyoto Mirror Princess's Mansion!"

Really.

Wei Lingmao laughed in his heart.

"Mirror platform? Princess's Mansion? ”

"Yes, His Majesty's favorite only princess today, Princess Rongqu."

"Why did the people from the Princess's Mansion come to our Qingzun Pavilion? No wonder my father refused, it turned out to be a royal person, alas, I vaguely remember the royal family surname of the dynasty? Princess......? ”

"You're stupid, aren't you? Looking at so many scripts, don't you know that this is the title of the princess of the royal family, her real name is Wei Lianyi, her name was taken by the first queen herself, and later Her Majesty ascended the throne, and the princess's mother was also named Concubine Rong. ”

Gu Chao secretly digested this knowledge in his heart.

"Why don't I know any of this?"

"Because Master never let us know about this, I was talking to someone once, and Master overheard, and he also told me about me, and warned me, don't tell you about it."

Wei Linghao listened to the two of them who didn't know, and they were discussing passionately at the moment, and the people and things that were close to him in the past couldn't help but feel a little funny and a little trance.

"What did the princess's people do when they came to us to clear the pavilion?"

"I don't know this, I'm only in charge of reception, how can I be qualified to listen to him talk to the master?"

Wei Lingmiao picked up the teacup and said slowly.

"The court battle is unpredictable, they just want to find a backer."

Gu Chao saw that Ling Zhuo took the initiative to chat, so he hurried up to ask.

"Well, how do you know? Anything to say? ”

"I grew up in Kyoto, so I know this."

"Then you mean, the princess asked us to help him, but she is just a princess, sometimes the most favored emperor, what do you want?"

"Nature is a splash of wealth and endless rights."

Hearing this, Gu Chao didn't understand it anymore.

"Shouldn't you have all these things in the royal family?"

"There is only one person who is the master of this world."

Gu Chao was taken aback, supported his chin with one hand, and said

"Does she still want to be an empress?"
