Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 141

cough.

cough cough.

The figure who was drinking wine heard the word 'tea', and a sip of the wine rushed into his nasal cavity, causing Li Xian to cough a few times.

Slightly raised his head to glance over the eyes of the ministers, wiped the tea stains overflowing from the corner of his mouth with one hand, and waved the other hand again and again.

"it's okay no problem."

The applause stopped, and the maids dressed in crimson silk and satin dragged silver trays, put teapots on them, and filed in.

Su hand lifted the lid of the cup, took out the curled tea leaves, and placed them in the cup, arousing the curiosity of all the officials.

"Hey, could it be tea leaves? How can you save such a look? Curled and dry?"

"Could it be that this tea doesn't need to be boiled, how...how can I drink it?"

"How can there be any difference in the tea given by His Majesty? Look at the porcelain vase with gold threads, it is as clean as jade, and it looks extraordinary!"

"Yo~ It's actually brewed in boiling water, which is much more convenient than steaming ordinary tea."

A familiar scene unfolded in front of Li Shimin, Li Shimin stroked his beard and smiled.

"This is new tea from Cheng Aiqing's mansion, which has been roasted."

"After brewing, the color is clear and pure, the fragrance is mellow and sweet, and the spirit is shocked. It is indeed a treasure in the world, a rare palace tea."

For a moment, the small tea bowl showed a clear amber color, which caused many courtiers to exclaim in surprise and wonder.

Illuminated by the candlelight, the white rose rose, and the fragrance permeated the scent of the wine, spreading silently throughout the hall.

"It's amazing! You can see the tea leaves unrolling like clouds in the sky. It's really beautiful."

"Tsk tsk, it's not bad that it's imperial tea, the fragrance alone is like being in the vast grassland, it's very enjoyable!"

Some people couldn't wait, picked up the boiling hot tea and took a sip, the refreshing and cool down the throat, soaking the heart like spring rain moistening things, extremely refreshing.

Even Gao Shilian, who had been drinking tea for dozens of years, not only took a sip, but also felt a refreshing feeling in his heart, and the old man suddenly felt his eyes light up.

Withered fingers slightly bent, he pointed at Cheng Yaojin who was seated opposite, and said with a smile.

"Old Cheng, why did you share such a good thing at this time?"

"Even if you made an offering to His Majesty earlier, the old man would have tasted a mouthful of the world's fairy product earlier!"

"It's not a crime to conceive a jade, but I'm going to play it to you today. It seems like I'm not offering a hidden treasure!"

Hearing this, Cheng Yaojin's face turned red, his straightforward character never would have guessed that this was a joke made by the respected Gao Shilian.

Standing up hastily, bowing and saluting, he seemed a little apprehensive.

"Excuse me, Shen Guogong, this tea is the latest stir-fry."

"It's actually..."

At this point, Cheng Yaojin subconsciously glanced at the desk at the end of the hall, seeing Li Xian waving his hands and winking, Cheng Yaojin pursed his lips and said frankly.

"It was also recently that my incompetent child and a few playmates fiddled with these things."

"OK OK."

Li Shimin on the dragon seat had already noticed the subtle movements of Li Xian and Cheng Yaojin in the hall, and waved his hand to signal Cheng Yaojin to sit down before speaking.

"My dear friends, don't make things difficult for Cheng Aiqing. I prepared this tea just for reward."

"The Tang Dynasty has clear rewards and punishments, and this clear tea will be among the rewards from now on."

As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion in the hall, and all the courtiers looked at the clear tea in the teacups and felt very cherished.

"Okay! Royal gift from the court, it really should have such a style."

"I don't know who will have such a blessing in the future. If I can drink a cup of tea like this every day, it will be like heaven and earth!"

"You're just joking, how much tea can a palm-sized porcelain bottle hold? Drink it every day, what are you thinking about?"

Li Shimin didn't care about the noise in the court, stood up with a smile, and stood at the head of the palace with his hands behind his back, overlooking the joyous courtiers holding cups.

"The Great Tang Dynasty has clear rewards and punishments, and its kindness and power are measured."

"Come on, present a pot of tea to everyone in charge of producing Horseshoe as a reward."

As soon as the words fell, the court lady entered the palace in response, swayed her graceful figure, and presented the porcelain vase of tea to Cheng Yaojin, Wen Lao, and Li Xian's table.

Although the tea is produced in Chengfu, it can be gilded by the court, and the meaning is completely different.

Cheng Yaojin lifted the porcelain vase above his head, and exhaled a trembling sound out of his throat.

"Old Cheng wrote about His Majesty Ron!"

The old minister of the Ministry of Industry, who was still unwilling before, held up the porcelain vase in the envy of all the ministers, knelt down to thank him, and was very excited.

It seems that the previous unhappiness has long been forgotten at this moment, and it has been completely replaced by this imperial bestowal.

Li Xian frowned and stared at the porcelain vase at the corner of the table with a complex expression.

[What the hell is this? 】

【The clear tea I roasted by myself was dedicated to Li Er, and I gave it to myself again? 】

【Li Er, you want me to take the tea leaves I produced and thank you? 】

[Fuck!Damn you are really shameless! 】

Li Xian didn't wake up from the gloom until he heard Li Jing coughing in his ear, stood up and bowed his hands.

"My minister... thank you for your kindness."

A figure stood on the hall, looking at Li Xian who bowed his hands, and smiled heartily.

You kid is the one who made the tea, and you have to forcefully attribute it to the Cheng family, but the Wei Cheng family really broke their hearts!
It doesn't matter if you don't want to admit it, then I will pretend not to know, and see how long you can last.

The dragon sleeves were swinging in the air, and Li Shimin laughed loudly.

"Sit down."

After a feast, Li Xian was extremely depressed.

It is his wish to give the credit to the Cheng family, and the praise must be the emperor without a doubt, but this reward is given to him by himself, and he has to give thanks to Li Shimin?
What's going on here?
There is a celebration reward, it is simply murder!
Depressedly, Li Xian took two mouthfuls of dry wine, and Li Xian frowned with displeasure on his face.

A cup was handed over by her side, and it came into view, and there was a touch of praise in the peaceful words.

"Xian'er, it is extremely honorable for His Majesty to reward you with tribute tea."

"Come, let me toast you with a toast."

Li Jing is not stupid, he has always been on good terms with the Cheng family, and Li Xian has already reported to Li Jing the matter of promoting meritorious service, including the matter of the tea leaves.

It was rare for this stern-faced and chubby father to be so active. Li Xian raised his cup and touched it lightly, pulling a smile.

"What Dad said is very true."

After taking a sip of the wine, Li Xian turned his head and stared at the smiling Li Jing.

"Father, what kind of tea do we drink in Li's house?"

As soon as this remark came out, Li Jing already knew what Li Xian said behind him, brushed Li Xian's shoulder, and said with a smile.

"Xian'er, my father is very happy that you have such a heart."

"Over the years, I have become used to eating strong tea for my father, and the servants in the mansion have long been used to spicy tea soup."

"This porcelain bottle..."

Before the words finished, Li Xian moved closer to Li Jing's side and interrupted.

"Hey~ That's a pity."

"Hai'er originally made green tea, so there is no shortage of it at home."

"If no one wants this tea, I have to take it back to the court again..."

Li Jing glanced at the tea bottle at the corner of the desk, coughed lightly, and reached out to hold the porcelain bottle in his hand.

Glancing at Li Xian, he frowned.

"This is the glory our Li family has fought for. How can we just throw it away?"

"Clean tea, keep it for your father first."
