Chapter 45 The First Genius of Chang'an

As soon as 'Hong Xue'er' came out, the shopkeeper Wang lost thousands of dollars, and even the brand of milk tea was torn down and thrown away in public.

This news made Shopkeeper He so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut all day.

Du Baozhu is not as happy as Shopkeeper He, this time it is not Hong Xue'er who is blocking the counterfeit milk tea, but Wang Debao himself. If you don't raise the threshold for making this milk tea, it won't take a few days for a shopkeeper and a shopkeeper Li to pop up.

However, Du Rangneng was not interested in this tea picking and tea making business, and she couldn't find a more reliable candidate for a while. I probably can only take a risk to go to Xin'an and improve the tea making method.

Du Baozhu felt weak when he thought about this. These days, in order to show Li Jie value, she has made a lot of things that should not be in this era. If you continue to do it, I am afraid that you will be hung up and burned to ashes.

"Little lady." The deer who was guarding the door suddenly knocked on the door.

But if he takes the initiative to come to the door, it must be that Shouwang has another order. Du Baozhu felt more and more headaches: "Say, what's the matter?" ”

"Your Highness, please come to the tea shop for a while."

Ruyi Tea Shop is a well-known tea shop in the East Market, although it is located in the downtown area, but there are many big trees planted in the backyard, and the environment is very quiet. On weekdays, many Confucian scholars like to gather here to talk about poetry and Taoism.

Before Du Baozhu got off the carriage, he heard the faint sound of string music in the tea shop. Lifting the curtain and looking out, there was an endless stream of people in front of the tea shop.

The ancient 'fans' who followed the literati alone accounted for most of them, and the Ruyi tea shop was tightly surrounded.

Du Baozhu endured it, but still couldn't help but ask Lu Ming: "Why does Your Royal Highness always choose to meet here?" People come and go here, what if someone sees it? ”

"Ahem." Lu Ming touched his nose and said in a low voice: "Although the little lady can rest assured, His Royal Highness has a deep friendship with the owner of this tea shop, and there is another passage to enter and exit, so he will not be seen." ”

"What about me? I said I came here alone to see the scenery, who would believe me? Du Baozhu glanced at Lu Ming with slanted eyes, very suspicious: "Your Royal Highness shouldn't have done it on purpose, right?" ”

In other people, Du Baozhu may not suspect it, but Li Jie has done this kind of bastard thing before, so it is not necessarily.

"Cough-" Lu Ming coughed louder, and swore to the sky with a red face: "The servant guarantees his life, and no one knows about the little lady and His Highness." ”

"What are you blushing for? I have nothing to do with your Highness! Du Baozhu was confused by Lu Ming's strange reaction, and simply jumped out of the car.

Just as he was about to step into the tea shop, the crowd of spectators at the door suddenly exclaimed: "The dragon is here!" ”

Du Baozhu followed their line of sight and saw a crow-blue carriage leisurely coming from the entrance of the alley.

The carriage was not too big, but the materials were very exquisite, and the four corners of the carriage were hung with dark gold bell-shaped copper bells, and the tongue of the bell was hung with autumn-colored hanging tassels. As the carriage moved, there was a clear and bright sound from time to time.

The spectators all gathered around, but the entrance to the tea shop was vacated.

Du Baozhu naturally didn't let go of this opportunity, and entered the tea shop without looking back, and went straight to the third floor, Li Jie was really waiting for her in the old place.

At this time, it was approaching evening, the sunset was like blood, Li Jie was sitting by the window, shrouded in orange sunlight, it was much more difficult to be a little peaceful.

It was the first time for Du Baozhu to see him look so defenseless, and he couldn't help but hesitate at his feet.

Li Jie had already discovered her traces, and turned his head to look: "Hualong is the most famous talent in Chang'an, and people who have seen him praise him for his handsome appearance and unparalleled in the world." Since you have met it, why don't you take a second look? ”

Du Baozhu was stunned, and finally found such a person in the depths of his memory.

'Hualong' is actually that person's character, his surname is 'Pei' and his name is 'Nu', and he is the son of the prince's young master Pei Tan.

Although the original Du Baozhu did not understand literature and ink, he admired this No. 1 talent in Chang'an. Pei Nuan and Du Guangyi studied in Taixue together, and Du Baozhu went to peek at him in the name of visiting his eldest brother.

At this time, he was reminded by Li Jieyi, Du Baozhu was like a cat whose tail was caught, and his hair was raised all over his body.

It was the original owner who fell in love with Pei Nuan, but Du Baozhu was not very interested in a nerd who was sad all day long, and he had already forgotten about this person. Li Jie suddenly mentioned him, was it a coincidence by chance, or an intentional temptation?

Du Baozhu didn't like the scheming Li Jie, so he didn't want to put him in the second possibility, so he immediately pouted: "What about being good-looking?" This man talks all day long about things I don't understand, and it's a little boring. ”

A hint of darkness flashed in Li Jie's eyes, and then he hooked the corners of his lips and smiled: "I see, but I have seen superficiality." ”

Du Baozhu was not interested in testing him back and forth, so he sat down opposite him and asked, "Your Highness invited me to come today, but you have something to order?" ”

"Something is true." It was rare for Li Jie not to go around in circles, picked up the teapot and poured tea for Du Baozhu, and said, "Tomorrow, the saint will come to Mao'er Lane to watch the martial arts meeting." ”

His action of pouring tea was indescribably chic, and the words he said were so startled that Du Baozhu's eyes were round: "Why did the saint go to the martial arts club?" But His Highness arranged it? ”

Now that the martial arts meeting has been held for most of the time, and the people of Kyoto have some understanding of the 'union', Du Baozhu is planning to release a large number of flower sticks to destroy the Changle Liquor Store.

At this time, if the saint appears, all the arrangements will be in vain!

"It's not my idea, but your martial arts will be really popular, and even Lieutenant Tian has heard about it, which makes the saint interested."

Tang Xizong Li Yi, ascended the throne at the age of twelve, his biological mother Queen Mother has long since died, and the mother family is not prosperous, the only elder around him is Tian Lingzi, and even Tian Lingzi is called 'Father'.

In order to control the government, Tian Lingzi deliberately guided Li Yi to the road of the faint king, and made a bunch of small yellow doors to play with him.

Therefore, Li Yi has now turned eighteen years old, and he still thinks about having fun all day long, ignoring the government and politics. If he heard that there was any 'First Martial Arts Society' in Chang'an City, he would definitely go and take a look.

Du Baozhu knew that Li Yiweifu's private visit was already a certainty, and after being a little surprised, he immediately regained his composure: "I don't know what His Highness wants me to do?" ”

"Snort-" Li Jie laughed: "You are the daughter of a powerless and powerless petty official, where did you get the news of the saint's visit in person?" It's just as usual. ”

This was originally said by Du Baozhu, but now he stabbed Du Baozhu in turn.

Du Baozhu was choked by his words, and asked for a while: "Since Your Highness doesn't need me to do anything, why did you call me today?" Wouldn't it be, just let me see Pei Nuan, right? ”

"Hmm." Li Jie nodded: "Aren't you afraid that Chen Yueyao will entangle you?" She's just as impatient as you are with the dragon's bookishness. If you associate with Hualong, you will naturally be able to dispel her suspicions. ”

Du Baozhu suddenly realized, and co-authored Li Jie to meet here again and again, just to let others think that she came to see Pei Nuan?

Chen Yueyao is just the niece of a eunuch, but a future king has to avoid her edge and dare not face her head-on, which shows how huge Tian Lingzi's power is.

As soon as Du Baozhu thought that Tian Lingzi was behind the Changle Liquor Restaurant he was dealing with now, he felt a chill at the base of his neck, as if the knife with a severed head had been suspended.

At this time, she was glad that Huang Chao would enter Beijing next year, as long as she survived this year, with money, grain, grass, and carriages and horses, she would be able to escape from the eye of this big typhoon.

Thinking about it like this, my heart is finally much more stable: "Thank you Your Highness for reminding me, I'll go downstairs to listen to Hualong's talk!" ”

As he spoke, he bowed and withdrew.

Li Jie sat still, the light in his narrow eyes kept flashing, and it took a while to drink all the tea in the cup: "Prepare the horse, go back to the palace." ”

Du Baozhu went downstairs and found that the hall of the tea shop had been crowded with Pei Nuan's followers.

She paused slightly at the top of the stairs to hear Pei Nuan debating the Analects with another middle-aged man. She is a science student in modern times, and the original owner is not a lover of reading, and after listening to it for a while, she really couldn't understand what those people were arguing, so she quietly withdrew.

The visit of a saint is a big deal. However, Du Baozhu couldn't make any preparations, and he couldn't even reveal the slightest hint to Shopkeeper He.

This is a great torture for her who is cautious.

finally stayed up until the early morning of the second day, Du Baozhu turned over and sat up from the bed, and let Wen Xi taste the pleasure of the two maidservants to change a set of men's clothes for her.

Most of the Tang women are heroic and like to wear men's clothes and military uniforms. Du Baozhu suddenly dressed up like this, and the two maids didn't feel strange at all, and cleaned up for her quickly.

This Li Yi was attracted by Tian Lingzi, but I am afraid that the person who comes will not be good. Du Baozhu was a little unsure, and when he was about to go out, he hesitated, but left the two maids at home, and only took Lu Ming out.

When I arrived at Maoer Alley, the guys in the six viewing areas were lazily cleaning up the benches, and the idlers and the little babies who had nothing to do were already standing outside the boundary, waiting to enter.

Du Baozhu called Lu Er over: "Now our martial arts will become more and more popular, there are more people than benches, but I am afraid that accidents will easily occur." You go to the martial arts hall and find a few more strong masters to maintain order. ”

Lu Er's remuneration had already arrived, it was all silver money spent in vain, and when he saw Du Baozhu, he was as happy as seeing the God of Wealth, and hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I'll go." ”

However, people are not as good as heaven, as soon as Lu Er's front foot left, Du Baozhu saw a few different guests at the end of the queue.

The first is a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy Lang Jun, who looks five or six points similar to Li Jie. It's the same with slightly sharp narrow eyes, but because of his love of laughter, it seems a little more friendly.

Behind him was a white and chubby middle-aged man, without a beard, and a face as soft and white as a steamed bun.

Behind them there were also a few guards dressed in civilian clothes, but these guards were far less energetic and capable than Hefeng Luming, but as if they had no bones, they were loose and sloppy, and they didn't stand up.

There was a little baby who was late to occupy a seat, and he hurriedly ran over and accidentally bumped into one of the guards.

The guard didn't even think about it, so he raised his foot and kicked it over.
