Chapter 148: Arrive in Jiangzhou

After eating the flower chicken, the team continued to Xiangyang, and after spending the night in Xiangyang, they went straight to the pier to take a boat and continue southward, and after several days of sailing, they finally arrived at the Jiangzhou wharf.

"Sage, there is Jiangzhou Wharf in front!"

Ximenyang, who was standing on the deck of the dragon boat, pointed to the Hongzhou Wharf Road that was getting closer and closer.

"We finally arrived in Jiangzhou, it's really not easy, pass the order, speed up, and land as soon as possible!"

Li Jing nodded and said, after sailing on the river for a few days, he had already been a little unbearable, especially his stomach, which was like turning over the river and the sea, which made him uncomfortable.

Where there is a down-to-earth to be down-to-earth, especially when the river is stormy, the whole dragon boat is a little swaying, and it is necessary to stay seasick!

"The saint has a purpose, speed up!"

With an order, the bottom layer of the dragon boat, the baffle outside the hull was pushed open, and the sailor stretched out the oars and slid quickly, making the dragon ship speed up!

"Everyone, prepare with me and welcome the great ride of the saint!"

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi sorted out his official uniform, and did not forget to remind his subordinates to get ready to take over, and don't forget his appearance, so as not to lose his manners!

Failure to be in front of the monarch is a big crime, and if it is committed, it will be punished, and the punishment will not be avoidable, and if it is serious, it will be dismissed.

Soon, the dragon boat docked at the Jiangzhou wharf, the gangway on the dragon boat was lowered, and Li Jing walked down under the escort of the forbidden army.

"Greetings to the saints!"

Under the leadership of Jiangzhou Thorn History, Jiangzhou officials of all sizes saluted and paid homage!

"No rudeness!"

Li Jing said.

"Thank you, sage, please also ask the sage to move and go to the palace with the ministers!"

The Jiangzhou officials got up, and the Jiangzhou assassin Shi forked his hand and saluted.

"Hmmm! Lead the way!"

Li Jing nodded in agreement and let Jiangzhou Thorn Shi lead the way.

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi led the way in front, and Li Jing and others followed behind to the palace.

After staying in the palace, Jiangzhou Thorn Shi ordered people to prepare and bring all the delicacies to Li Jing!

"Sage, this is a unique delicacy in Jiangzhou, and the minister specially prepared it for the sage!"

The history of Jiangzhou thorns is served to people.

The maid rushed in, brought the cooked food, and placed it at the table of the people.

The maid scooped a bowl of food from a casserole and put it in front of Li Jing.

Li Jing picked up the chopsticks on the table, picked up a piece of meat inside, put it in his mouth and chewed.

This meat is delicious, chewy, it should be frog meat, and there are fungus in it, this is supposed to be a frog stewed fungus, as for what kind of frog I don't know.

Li Jing picked up the soup spoon and directly took a big sip of frog meat with soup, showing a sense of satisfaction on his face.

It's delicious! It's a dish he's ever eaten, and it's one of the top 10 delicacies!

Seeing Li Jing's satisfied face, Jiangzhou Assassin Shi immediately smiled, as long as he served the emperor well, his promotion and fortune were just around the corner!

Li Jing will look at another stew, this is a stewed fish, but this fish is a little small, this fish has a slender body, a flat head, a short snout, flat flat, and a slightly pointed point.

Li Jing picked one up and put it in his mouth, and tasted it carefully, the meat was delicate, the taste was mellow, delicious and thornless, and the entrance was smooth, even if he didn't like to eat fish, he would be captured by it.

For this dish, Li Jing was full of praise, and ate a few more, as for the other dishes, Li Jing also tasted a little, but it was far less than the first two dishes.

"Aiqing! I don't know what these two dishes are called? ”

Li Jing put down his chopsticks, pointed to the first two dishes, and asked about the history of Jiangzhou thorns.

"Sage, this is a unique delicacy in Jiangzhou, the name is: Lushan Three Treasures, this first dish is the stone chicken and stone fungus in the Lushan Three Treasures, put it in the pot and stew together!"

"The latter dish is one of the three treasures, the stone fish, which has been carefully stewed by my chef in Hongzhou, the meat is delicate, the taste is mellow, and it is a rare delicacy!"

"When the minister learned that the saint was coming, he specially ordered someone to prepare a delicious meal, hoping that the saint would like it!"

Jiangzhou Thorn History immediately explained the three treasures of Lushan to Li Jing, this is a unique delicacy in Jiangzhou, and it is also the best and most famous food in Jiangzhou.

Li Jing's eyes flashed with brilliance after hearing this, as he expected, the first two dishes were really the three treasures of Lushan.

The quality of the stone chicken meat is comparable to that of the young chicken, it lives in the stone cave of the mountain stream stream, so it is called the stone chicken, and the shape of the stone chicken is similar to that of a frog.

Stonefish live in shallow waters of ponds, lakes, small rivers and mountain streams with sandy and gravel bottoms, clear water and abundant oxygen.

Stone fish usually live scattered in the stone crevices, and cling to the stone walls with powerful sucker-like pelvic fins, and only go out of the stone crevices when foraging.

The stone fungus grows on the damp stone of Lushan, and there are clusters of blue fungus plants, which stretch out a soft little umbrella and decorate the mountain stone to be elegant and luxurious.

One of the most distinctive in Jiangzhou, there is also Lushan Yunwu Tea!

"Not bad! Aiqing has a heart, I heard that there is a kind of tea in Jiangzhou, called Lushan Yunwu Tea, which is the best in tea, but is there such a thing? ”

Li Jing asked, after eating the three treasures of Lushan, just drink a cup of Lushan cloud tea to relieve your greasy, and see if it is as good as the rumors.

It's quite ashamed to say that before he crossed, he only knew that there was Lushan Yunwu tea, but he didn't taste it, so he just took this opportunity to taste Lushan Yunwu tea.

If it is really so delicious, let Jiangzhou Thorn History pay tribute every year, and include Lushan Yunwu Tea in the tribute tea!

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi was stunned when he heard it!

What Lushan Yunwu Tea? He has been in Jiangzhou for so long, and he has never heard of it!

In fact, this is not to blame Jiangzhou Thorn History, the name of Lushan Yunwu Tea appeared in the Ming Dynasty "Lushan Chronicles", and there is no record of Lushan Yunwu Tea now.

"Sage, Wechen has been in Jiangzhou for many years, and I have never heard of any Lushan Yunwu tea, Wechen ......"

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi forked his hand and saluted, where did he go to find it?

Li Jing frowned when he heard this, and then remembered that the Lushan Yunwu Tea at this time was not called this name.

Lushan Yunwu tea is the name that only appeared in the Ming Dynasty, after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, it was produced on a large scale, and soon became famous throughout the world, and it is not uncommon for Jiangzhou to not know the history!

But there is a place that Jiangzhou Thorn must know.

"In Jiangzhou, there is a temple, called Donglin Temple!"

Li Jing asked.

"Yes, it's in Lushan!"

Lushan Mountain Wuyuan, Poyang Lake, south of Tengwang Pavilion, north pillow surging Yangtze River, Donglin Temple is located in the northwest foot of Lushan Mountain, 32 miles away from Jiangzhou in the north, because it is in the east of Xilin Temple, so it is called Donglin Temple.

Founded in the ninth year of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it is one of the temples with a long history on Lushan Mountain, Donglin Temple is the birthplace of the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism, and has become one of the eight great avenues of Buddhism!

Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty gave the addition of Donglin Temple, and gave the name "Taiping Xinglong Temple"!

But what does this have to do with the cloud tea that the sage said? Could it be that this cloud tea is unique to Donglin Temple, and it is not the tea that monks drink on weekdays?

"I heard that the monks of this Donglin Temple will plant a kind of tea leaves, brewed out of the tea soup, the taste is rich and fragrant, this tea was born in the high mountains and clouds, and it is a special product of Lushan, so I named it Lushan Cloud Tea!"

Li Jing explained to Jiangzhou Thorn History, why is it called Lushan Yunwu Tea!

The history of Jiangzhou assassination and the officials of Jiangzhou, this suddenly realized!

It turns out that this is the origin of Lushan Yunwu Tea, but the name is also appropriate!

Born between the clouds and mist of Lushan, there is nothing wrong with the cloud tea of Lushan!

Jiangzhou officials have patted their ass, saying that Li Jing is far-sighted, giving the name of Lushan Yunwu Tea and so on.

"Does the saint want to go to Donglin Temple to have a look? The minister will order someone to arrange it!"

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi also thought that Li Jing wanted to go to Donglin Temple to worship the Buddha, and planned to send someone to Donglin Temple to say hello first, so as not to snub the saint by the monks of Donglin Temple.

If this is because of the poor hospitality, the saint is annoyed and angry, and the entire Donglin Temple is afraid that it will be removed from this world!

After all, the saint began to promulgate the ban on Buddhism before he became the emperor, so that many monks hated the saint, if they didn't say hello in advance, Jiangzhou Thorn Shi was afraid that there would be contradictions!

When the time comes, he provokes the saint and directly sends a large army to encircle and suppress Donglin Temple, but it will be bad, if he doesn't prevent this tragedy from happening, then he will be a sinner for the ages!

"No, I don't plan to go to Donglin Temple, I am going south this time to go to the palace to conquer the Linyi country, I can't stay in Jiangzhou for a long time, you send someone to get the Lushan Yunwu Tea back!"

"I just want to taste one or two, to see if the Lushan Yunwu Tea is as good as rumored, you send someone to go back quickly, be sure to bring it back before the sun sets!"

"If it's really delicious, Lushan Yunwu Tea will be included in the tribute tea series, and it will pay tribute to the imperial court every year!"

Li Jing looked at Jiangzhou Thorn Shi and said.

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi immediately comprehended, and at the same time, his eyes turned quickly, and he had an idea in his heart.

He felt that this was an opportunity to ease the relationship between Shamen and the sage, and if he could change the sage's opinion of Shaman through this incident, it would be considered a great merit!

"Rest assured, saint! The minister sent someone to rush to Donglin Temple and ask the monk for spiritual tea!"

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi said.

Li Jing sneered after hearing this, he was not interested in the careful thinking of Jiangzhou Thorn History, he just wanted to taste the Lushan Yunwu tea, as for the rest, as long as it did not harm the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what the other party did, he would not pay attention to it!

If the people below make any small moves, they should not have seen it, if they ask about everything and take care of everything, he will not be exhausted to death!

Jiangzhou Thorn Shi immediately sent someone to Donglin Temple, and after asking the host of Donglin Temple for a pound of tea, he immediately hurried back to Jiangzhou Palace!

Take the high-quality mountain spring water, boil it and use it to make Lushan Yunwu tea, and immediately send it to Li Jing.

Li Jing picked up the tea bowl, opened the lid of the bowl, blew it gently, and drank the tea soup, which tasted mellow, fragrant and refreshing, and refreshing.

"It's really good tea, I decided, in the future, Jiangzhou will pay tribute to the imperial court every year for this Lushan cloud tea sixty catties, Lushan is such a good place, you can't let the monks of Shamen tired, you are the history of Jiangzhou Thorn, you should encourage tea farmers to plant more!"

"If Lushan Yunwu Tea can be mass-produced and sold to the whole world, it can increase a lot of taxes for Lushan!"

Li Jing said.

"Obey the order!"

Jiangzhou Thorn History saluted.
