Chapter VI Contracting
"It was given to Bai Yi by the little marquis," Bai Ling replied, "Bai Yi said that this tea tastes very special, and it will not be bitter after brewing for a long time, and I will definitely be able to drink the difference." β
Hearing that it was Zeng Jiuyan, Chen Yicong laughed.
Yes, this is also what he has not been able to understand, except for the occasional difference between the value and cheapness of tea from the taste, Bai Ling can hardly remember the taste of tea.
Of course - her brewing method was wrong at the beginning, Yuezhou Houkui couldn't use freshly boiled boiling water, and the first brew shouldn't have poured so much water......
It doesn't matter, though.
Bai Ling wrinkled his brows and blew the cup, then took a sip of tea soup, and sure enough, he still couldn't taste anything special.
She looked up at Chen Yicong, "What is the smooth method today?" β
Chen Yicong roughly explained what happened in the court today, and Bai Ling really showed that sighing smile again.
ββ¦β¦ These ministers have a bad habit of doing this. Bai Ling said softly, "Originally, the two sides should have come up to reason with the facts, but their desire to win and self-destructiveness were too heavy, and they would be antagonistic as soon as they came up...... What's the benefit of that? β
Bai Ling muttered to himself, leaning over to poke the stove again, "...... It's good to be so angry with their spirit. β
"In short, it's really useful to put data out." Chen Yicong suddenly said, "The data is convincing. β
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
This sentence came out of Chen Yicong's mouth, revealing a slight weirdness, and it really made Bai Ling feel happy.
"Yes," Bai Ling didn't look up, she stared at the stove and whispered, "the kind of people who speak intuitively and with experience are not worth trusting, especially when it comes to these far-reaching decisions...... The more unhesitating and determined a person is from the beginning, the less trustworthy he is, and only by always being suspicious and aware will it be possible to deal with those sudden disasters. β
Chen Yicong looked at Bai Lingβhe really wanted to remind Bai Ling that when she said these words, she seemed to be full of determination, without hesitation, without the slightest confusion.
However, Chen Yicong held back for the time being, he hoped that Bai Ling would be happier today, because he really didn't have much free time today and tomorrow.
If you have to raise the bar with Bai Ling again in this situation, there will be a situation where "a dispute is opened but there is no time to end it".
That's really uncomfortable.
Chen Yicong came here to sit here today, and he was just a little busy.
The two chatted a few more words, and Chen Yicong heard a familiar male voice from the backyard - obviously Bai Yi came over.
He seemed to have made a special trip to the two kitchens in Bai Ling's backyard, because after the initial pleasantries, the sound of conversation and laughter between the three of them came immediately.
The voices of several people came into the room intermittently, and although Chen Yicong didn't want to eavesdrop, most of what they said still fell into his ears.
Suddenly, Bai Ling on the side suddenly burst out laughing, Chen Yicong glanced at her - he also heard it, and Bai Yigang outside said a word, "...... Then warm two bowls of wine and ask for a bowl of fennel beans! β
Chen Yicong didn't understand what was funny about this, but he quickly withdrew his gaze and said softly, "I'm leaving now, Bai Ling." β
Bai Ling put down the iron tongs in his hand, and there was a smile on his face.
"Well, I'll send you."
The two walked to the courtyard, Zhao Qi followed from afar, and Chen Yicong suddenly stopped, "That's right...... Do you have time for the next few days? β
"There is time these days," Bai Ling replied, "the emperor has something?" β
"Look at this day, it should be snowing in a few days...... I want to find a time to go and sit with Anhu. Chen Yicong looked at the osmanthus tree that was still stretching with dark green thick leaves, "It's still those people who are walking together, you know." β
"Look at the snow in the Lake Heart Pavilion......" Bai Ling muttered, she smiled and nodded, "Okay." β
β¦β¦
In winter, the Qin Garden has returned to its usual withering.
However, unlike before, the whole yard is probably no longer half as tall as before.
It's a remote place, but Heng Yuanjun hasn't moved out of here. To the surprise of many people, Emperor Shengming continued to live in the palace by him.
As soon as winter dawned, Hengyuan-kun's cough became more frequent - a very strange symptom indeed, and he tended to cough from late autumn until the snow fell.
Heng Yuanjun slowly walked into the courtyard wearing a big coat, and Lu Dou, the great eunuch in the Taihe Hall today, also followed out.
Lu Dou was ordered to come to Heng Yuanjun to explain the controversy that occurred in the Taihe Hall today.
It's just that in the end, Lu Dou's breathing was already trembling, and Heng Yuanjun didn't seem to realize until this time that this Lu Gonggong was not very resistant to frost, so he turned back to the house and ordered someone to bring the charcoal stove.
ββ¦β¦ That's about it. Lu Dou roughly finished talking about everything that happened this morning, he held the soup woman here in Hengyuanjun in his hand, flipped his palm and put the back of his hand on it.
Heng Yuanjun sat back on the soft chair with a pale face, and he lowered his eyes to look at the charcoal fire that was extinguished.
"So a few days ago, the emperor stayed in the Archives Division day and night...... Is it to check the agricultural products and the number of households from Jiahe to Jianxi? β
"This ...... The slave and maid did not know. Lu Dou replied with a chuckle, "After all, you know the kind of place in the Book Division, and it's not easy for slaves and maids to go down with them......"
"It's hard work for Grandpa Lu." Heng Yuanjun said in a low voice.
"It's not hard, it's not hard." Lu Dou hurriedly said, "The emperor heard that you have been coughing for a long time recently, so he sent me to bring a newly made autumn pear paste. β
Heng Yuanjun's eyes were still calm, "I handed over the excerpt to the Heart Cultivation Hall the day before yesterdayββ"
"Oh," Lu Dou knocked on his head hard, "Look at my elm head, how can I forget such an important thing?"
"Your Emperor has read all of your books, and I've read them several times...... The emperor originally wanted to summon you for an interview this afternoon, but unfortunately, something happened to the military department, and the emperor had to go to the northern suburbs in person in the afternoon, and estimated that he would not be able to come back until dark.
"Heng Yuanjun shouldn't go to bed too early tonight. When the emperor comes back at night, he will send you to the Heart Cultivation Palace. β
"Understood." Heng Yuanjun nodded.
After sending Lu Dou away, the palace people continued to lock the door of Qinyuan, and Heng Yuanjun still went to the courtyard alone to stand, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Three years ago, Heng Yuanjun piled up a stone barrier in the southwest corner of Qinyuan, without a monument or any other special signs, but he did bury some treasures that had been treasured for many years.
At this moment, the cold wind is cold, and the whole Qinyuan looks barren and lonely.
His physique is so strange, even in the middle of winter, he never finds it unbearable because of the cold.
Fengxue has always been a friend to whom he feels dear.
