Chapter 100: In terms of boiling wine

In ancient times, there was an allusion to the boiling of green plum wine, the wine was originally a thing to drive away the cold, and it didn't matter if you drank cold wine, why should you cook wine? Because boiling wine is not simply warm, at the same time there is the meaning of "Dionysian awakening", if it is a fragrant wine, it is naturally the fresher the better, if it is aged for many years, it is necessary to filter impurities through boiling wine, remove bitterness, and make the taste more mellow.

These things were all given to Li Xuandu by Qian Yulong back then, in addition to aging, there are also special wine cooking utensils, which were taken out by Li Xuandu.

Just when Li Xuandu was about to open the mud seal, Bai Juan had already taken out a small table and two stools from the room and placed them under the corridor. The so-called 'glow-in-the-dark cup of Pu grape wine', so you should use a glow-in-the-dark cup to drink wine, 'jade bowl to hold amber light', and use a jade cup to drink Fenjiu, and there are many others, I won't go into details. As for this Huadiao wine, it is necessary to use a porcelain cup, preferably a porcelain cup fired in the official kiln of the previous dynasty, and it happened that the old friend gave me two pairs. ”

While speaking, Li Xuandu took out a pair of exquisite porcelain cups from the "eighteenth floor", the whole body was jade white, and there were cranes and white clouds on the wall of the cups.

At this time, the heat of warm wine is almost there, although Qin Daofang is not fond of drinking, but he smells the aroma of wine, which is very mellow, and he knows that it is indeed a good wine, and today is a blessing.

Coming out as an official, although noble, but in terms of heritage, it is not comparable to the local tycoon family, Qin Daofang was born in the Qin family in Liaodong, but he has not returned home for many years, and he has always been honest as an official, but such good things are rarely enjoyed.

Bai Juan didn't drink, but went to the study alone.

Li Xuandu poured a full cup for Qin Daofang.

Qin Daofang pinched the wine glass with three fingers and gently shook the wine glass, and the wine in the glass showed a pale yellow color.

His niece has been close to him since she was a child, and he has no children and no daughters under his knees, so he naturally treats his niece as a daughter. Pinching her fingers, this niece is also twenty-four this year, the daughter of an ordinary family, she has been married at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and she is a child at this age. You can marry someone as early as sixteen, and even if you are late, you can marry at the age of twenty. No matter how bad it is, it should be like Su Yuncheng to set up a family affair, which is another way to say. As for Yu Qingning and the palace officials, the sects where the two of them belong have their own rules, and they cannot be generalized. But his niece has a cold temperament, thin skin, and high vision, and his eldest brother is a person who doesn't care about everything.

Now I met Li Xuandu. As far as the public is concerned, what is Li Xuandu's reputation, he has already heard that he can make Zhang Xiang look in his eyes, and he is naturally not an ordinary person. Privately, Li Xuandu has a life-saving grace for him, and his character and temperament make him very fond of him. He was a person from the past, and he saw that Li Xuandu's attitude towards his niece was unusual, so he deliberately made a match, if it could be a good thing, it would not be in vain for his hard work.

Of course, he also knows about Li Xuandu and Zhang Baiyue's past, but Zhang Baiyue has passed away, and Li Xuandu can't never marry a wife or have children for the rest of his life, not to mention that the two didn't get married at the beginning, and they didn't even find out about it, they just had a good impression of each other.

Li Xuandu poured himself another glass of wine.

In a man's life, there will probably be two unforgettable women, one is the fairy in his heart, like the stars in the sky, admired and looked forward to him, and even humbly lost himself;

Li Xuan divided the women he met into three categories. One is Su Yuncheng, Yu Qingning, Gong Guan, Lu Yanbing, Su Yunjiao and others, one is Zhang Baiyue, and the other is Bai Juan.

According to different relationships, it is normal for people to get along with each other in different ways, so Li Xuan will treat the first type of people with courtesy, and he will stop at courtesy when he is affectionate towards Zhang Baiyue, and he can't blaspheme.

In contrast, he is not so well-behaved with Bai Juan, and even with Bai Juan's half acquiescence, there are some small inches and innocuous jokes. If Bai Juan sternly refused from the beginning, Li Xuandu would definitely not be so presumptuous, the key is that Bai Juan did not hate Li Xuandu's actions, but because of the woman's reserved subconscious resistance, this made Li Xuandu more and more bold.

Most of the things of men and women in this world are not within the etiquette law, but as long as the woman is willing to have the word "love", all the charges will no longer exist and will be blameless.

If Li Xuandu two years ago Tianbao was still a little stunned, then now he is already very open-minded, there is nothing he can't figure out, the rules must be obeyed, and the truth must be listened to, but he will not be too rigid about these two.

Zhang Baiyue's death made him sad, but at that time, the two of them were affectionate and polite, from the second year of Tianbao to the current seventh year of Tianbao, nearly five years were enough for him to get out of that tragic past and start again.

The realm cultivation is like this, and so are many emotional things, the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal in the past was left in the imperial capital of Tianbao for the second year, and now Li Xuandu is gradually drifting away.

In the past, the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal was inseparable from Yan Feiqing, Su Yuncheng, Yu Qingning and others, but now Li Xuandu can become friends with them. Li Xuandu once ridiculed the "Blood Knife" Ning Yi's crazy state as pretending to be infatuated, but in fact he didn't dare to face the reality, so he would never be strict with others and lenient with himself. Now that he has met a woman he likes, he naturally won't twist and pinch it, and wait for the woman to take the initiative to favor him.

As Li Xuandu himself said, if he didn't have this mind and indulged in the past all day long, then he would never be able to make a comeback.

People should look forward, not backward. Because if you keep looking behind you, you can't keep moving forward.

As for why you like it, it's not something that can be said in one or two sentences, in the final analysis, it's still the word "feeling".

It's just that neither Li Xuandu nor Qin Daofang broke this layer of window paper, just like this glass of wine, if it is broken, it will be a little meaningless.

Qin Daofang took a sip, put down his wine glass, and asked, "I wonder how the Purple Mansion views the current situation?"

Li Xuandu pondered a little, and said: "In my opinion, the current court situation is not just a matter of the queen mother, everyone talks about interests, the interests of the court are not consistent with the interests of hundreds of officials, the life of a court may be two hundred or three hundred years, but life is not more than a hundred years, except for the time of studying and Zhishi, at most he will be an official for a few decades, these decades are enough for a person to make enough money, and then return to his hometown and live in his old age, as for the court, it doesn't matter to him." Therefore, few people go to see how the court will be in the future, and they just blindly fish with all their might. ”

Li Xuandu paused slightly, and said softly: "What's more, when the Golden Horde went south, many generals of the previous dynasty simply surrendered to the Golden Horde, and even shaved their hair, and when Emperor Taizu of this dynasty expelled the Golden Horde, and the Central Plains lost their foothold, the descendants of these people followed the Golden Horde to the steppe with the Golden Horde. ”

Qin Daofang sighed: "What the Purple Mansion said can be said to be to the point, but the matter of the rule of officials, no matter which dynasty or generation, is the most troublesome thing, and now the imperial court cannot escape the trappings." If you want to rectify, you have to be virtuous, and both are indispensable, without the support of Xianjun, even if Zhang Xiang is the first assistant, it is impossible to act, and the ignorance is in the middle of the scheduling, and the emperor has no way to start. Now in the imperial court, Sun Ge is old and old, without that mental strength, the emperor is young, he does not hold real power, and he has no way to support it, so it can be said that he does not have either. ”

Li Xuandu said: "Now the situation of the imperial court, the outside is heavy and the inside is light, the authority of the governors is far better than the six Shangshu, the cabinet ministers have been in the center for a long time, and there is no foundation in the locality, if in the past few years, there is nothing wrong, but now it is a little out of place. However, this dynasty has always used civilian officials to control military generals, and the governor to control the general army, so it should be to choose a governor to enter the court and reorganize the cabinet. ”

Qin Daofang said in a deep voice: "Looking through the annals of history, it is not uncommon to attract local ministers into the court because of the weakness of the center, but there is something wrong with this move. ”
