Everyone said that the princesses of the Tang Dynasty were not good.
But after spending a long time with Princess Tong'an, I felt that this old princess was very good, and Wu Huaiyu even wanted to become friends with her.
The old princess understands people's hearts and has a knack for doing things. The key is her good vision.
"I know Erlang likes to drink tea. Try this tea. It's also loose tea."
The old princess gave Huaiyu tea leaves, Yue porcelain tea cans, and a set of Huzhou Yixing purple clay tea sets.
"This is Gu Zhu Zisun."
Wu Huaiyu knows tea well, and he can see the bottom line of this tea at once. This tea is produced in Huzhou. It is named because its fresh tea buds and leaves are slightly purple, and the backs of the young leaves are curled like bamboo shoots. It is also a famous tribute tea. It used to be
It is mainly made of Tuancha tea, and the small tea cakes are printed with dragon and phoenix patterns, so they are also called Dragon Tuanfeng cakes.
The old princess gave Huaiyu loose tea, using the tea-frying method passed down from the Wu family.
But this tea is different.
"This tea is picked before dawn, and must be picked on a sunny day, and all of it is picked by young girls. After the young leaves are greened, the girls rub them repeatedly on their laps..."
Wu Huaiyu listened with a smile, feeling that the old princess was very good at talking nonsense.
He is not only a famous tea connoisseur, but also a famous tea maker. The green tea frying technology is the standard he set and the technology he brought. Doesn’t he know how to process green tea?
And rub it on your thighs. Green tea does have to go through picking, greening, kneading and other processes, but you can put pieces of it on a girl's thighs and knead them. What's the point of some people making a gimmick by letting virgins pick tea leaves with their mouths and put them on their chests to dry?
the difference,
However, he believed that the old princess did not lie to him. No one said that all tea leaves were processed in this way. There must only be a small part of them processed in this way, and it was even more rare.
I brewed a pot,
Huaiyu didn't think there was anything special about this tea, and it didn't have the fragrance of a girl. Instead, he thought it was unhygienic.
Just like the melody in wine making, some workshops deliberately use gimmicks to tell stories. Why only use girls to tempo music? Can it really bring out the fragrance of girls and increase the flavor of the wine?
“Good tea.”
Huaiyu smiled and praised,
"Green tea from the Wu family is still the most famous, so I just set up some tea gardens and make some tea every year to give to relatives and friends." The old princess didn't feel the arrogance of a royal princess, but she felt like tea, mellow and rich.
, endless aftertaste.
"Erlang really wants to return to Lingnan to stay permanently?"
"Well, it won't be long before we head south. Things there are so troublesome that we won't be able to sort them out in three to five years."
"Then take that kid from Fang Yi,"
While drinking tea and chatting, the old princess naturally talked about some business. For example, the Wang family in Taiyuan also wanted to send their children to work in Lingnan, and also wanted to participate in the development of Lingnan.
To put it bluntly, I see that the current situation in Lingnan is good and the prospects are very good, so I am eager to get a share of the pie, such as Hepu Zhuchi, Jiaozhou coal mine, Shaozhou copper, Foshan iron, Jiaoguang port trade, and even spices from the South China Sea
etc,
The Wang family in Taiyuan has five surnames, but the family has a big business and a lot of expenses.
The old princess sees the prospects of Lingnan very clearly. If the Wang family wants to join the Lingnan business, they must obtain the support of Wu Huaiyu.
He is the real Lingnan feudal official, and he has good relations with local wealthy families such as Feng Anning, Chen Longshu, etc.
No matter what you do, if you can get Wu Huaiyu's support, you will get twice the result with half the effort and you will have a backer.
Huaiyu agreed with a smile,
This is a good thing,
Although the Wang family in Taiyuan has been a powerful family for thousands of years, they have no roots in Lingnan. They are still foreign monks. Moreover, the market in Lingnan is so big that they are not afraid of people who share the cake. As long as the cake is made bigger, everyone can get enough.
share.
"I'll send a car to take Erlang back home."
Although they were both in Xuanyangfang and only a short walk away, the old princess specially arranged her own luxurious carriage to take Huaiyu home.
Little fat Li Tai also wanted to find a place to chat with Wu Huaiyu, but Wu Huaiyu didn't want to have too much contact with him.
His dealings with the Prince of the East Palace were allowed and even expected by the emperor, but his dealings with the King of Wei were not allowed by the rules.
He also doesn't want people to think that he is stepping in two boats and hedging his bets.
At the gate of the princess's house, Wu Huaiyu didn't even say a word of nonsense to the little fat man, got in the car and left.
The car was very luxurious, and there was incense in it. The incense turned out to be ambergris. It was difficult to buy it with money, and the incense produced was also extremely expensive. It was even more expensive than gold.
The old princess enjoyed it quite a lot, and it also showed that she was the emperor's favorite, because ambergris is generally a royal monopoly, and you don't have the right to use it just because you have money.
I got something unexpected today.
Borrowing the Bohai King's two idiot brothers to show off the fangs of the Wu family, it will save people from taking tea and wanting to add insult to injury.
He made friends with Princess Tong'an, got married to the Wang family of Taiyuan, and even improved his relationship with Yang Hongli.
The price is just to become enemies with the Li Fengci brothers, and maybe even go far away from the fat boy Li Tai, but so what, who cares about them.
When the carriage arrived at the gate of the Duke of Jin, Wu Huaiyu got out of the carriage, which surprised the Wu family servants.
The Wang family brought down many gifts,
There are Guzhu Purple Bamboo Shoots tea kneaded on the girl's thighs, as well as pine smoke and ink produced by the Wang family, paper, pen and inkstone, and brocade silk, etc.
There are many good things of all kinds,
Everything is valuable, but to the Duke of Jin or the old princess, it is really just a little gift.
Young Wang Fangyi also followed,
The tall and thin young man's face was flushed and he was excited. He turned out to be Mr. Qingyang's disciple. He was not an ordinary student, but a disciple who had become a disciple. There were only a few such disciples in Wu Huaiyu.
Wei Wang Li Taidu can only be regarded as half.
From now on, Wang Fangyi will follow Wu Huaiyu. When he goes to Lingnan, he will follow him. His father also told him that he will study with the Duke of Jin for ten years.
It is both learning and healing.
Huaiyu entered the house and asked the housekeeper to arrange accommodation for Wang Fangyi. He went straight to the backyard, first to Fan Xuanfu's yard and gave her the engagement letter.
"I have made an appointment for Shishiro to be married to the grand-niece of the eldest princess, the eldest daughter of the Wang family of Taiyuan, Wang Renyou, and the Liu family of Hedong,"
"Wang Renyou was a Jinshi in the Spring Festival this year, and Liu Shi, Liu's elder brother, is currently a member of the Zhongshushe..."
Huaiyu explained the situation to her, "Do you accept this marriage?"
Fan Xuanfu read the marriage certificate and said with a smile, "This marriage is very good. As for the legitimate daughter of the fifth surname, her father is the legitimate son of a great clan and a Jinshi, her uncle is both the prime minister, and her great-uncle is the eldest princess.
They can actually take a fancy to our 18th son, it's really pie in the sky."
Huaiyu smiled and said, "No need to belittle yourself, our family is not bad either."
"Yes, my husband's name is there. It's really gratifying to have a daughter-in-law with the fifth surname in our family."
Soon, the news about the fiancée of the fifth son of the third son of the Wu family spread throughout the entire Jin government.
During dinner in the evening, a group of women congratulated Fan Xuanfu. In any case, the current social status of girls with the fifth surname is indeed very high, and they are even more popular than royal princesses.
Princess Yang Muyun of Huainan asked about what happened on the street in Fangzhong today, "I heard that Alang had a conflict with two county princes. The Wang family was also there at the time. How come he got married to the Wang family after only half a day?"
Huaiyu briefly explained the matter, but no one paid much attention to the Bohai King brothers. After all, the two kings were famous idiots.
After dinner, I chatted with my wives and concubines, and teased my children.
The evening breeze blows, which is a rare warmth and comfort.
It's getting late,
The women all have bright eyes,
"Bring the card up and draw it." Fan Xuanfu was in a good mood after he got a daughter with the fifth surname. He knew what the concubines were thinking, so he made arrangements with a smile.
After Wu Huaiyu came back, he only accompanied Fan Xuanfu, and everyone else was eagerly looking forward to it.
Having a group of wives and concubines is not always a good thing, but now it has become a burden.
Wu Huaiyu had no choice but to turn over the cards as agreed.
Green-headed signature signs, each sign has a name on the front,
According to the agreement, in each round, those who have slept with him will no longer participate. Whoever is turned over will be the one to continue after the round. Wu Huaiyu has six days of rest per month, and the remaining twenty-four days are for the twenty-four wives and concubines who happen to be in Beijing. One day for each of us.
Concubine Jianyi held the tray,
The concubines all stared excitedly,
Wu Huaiyu reached out and turned over a signature card casually,
Fan Xuanfu took it from his hand and said to the concubines with a smile, "It's the Lord of Yongle County."
Li Sanniang, the lord of Yongle County, and Li Qing, one of the nine concubines of Wu Huaiyu, and the grand-niece of Li Jing, the right servant of the Duke of Shedai,
Fan Xuanfu handed her the sign and said, "Sister, you are lucky. You won the lottery in one draw."
Li Sanniang didn't show any pretense, she took it with a smile, and then said to the sisters, "Well, I'm so lucky, then Erlang belongs to me tonight."
When the other concubines saw this result, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. They had too much money and bad luck. No one could blame them.
"Erlang, it's getting late, let's go there first." Li Sanniang made no secret of her impatience.
Other women heckled,
The Qiu sisters said simply, "Madam, we sisters have decided to go to Lingnan with Alang this time. Alang will stay in Lingnan permanently. We don't want to stay in Chang'an and be separated from Alang for a long time."
The three sisters of the Yun family did not show any weakness, "We, the third sister, are also going to Lingnan with our husband. Anyway, the children are getting older, and we want to give our husband a few more."
The concubines knew that Wu Huaiyu would stay in Lingnan for a long time after returning to Lingnan, and it was estimated that he might not be able to return to Beijing once a year. Who would want to stay in an empty house and live in two separate places.
Li Qing didn't care about this, and took Wu Huaiyu, his daughter Wu Qiongying, the fifteenth mother of Jiangning County, back to his courtyard.
I finally managed to catch myself,
It was still dark, and Li Sanniang could no longer care about this. She entered her courtyard, handed her daughter over to the nanny, and then took Huaiyu into the house.
"Take a bath first," Huaiyu said.
"Wash again later."
A long drought brings sweet rain, a little farewell is better than a wedding,
Half an hour after the battle, the first round ended. Wu Huaiyu was covered in sweat. He was really hearty and happy.
Li Qing said weakly, "I don't want to stay alone in Chang'an like this anymore. This time I must go to Lingnan with you. No matter where you go from now on, I will follow you."
"Okay." Wu Huaiyu agreed happily,
"I'll take my daughter with me,"
"Well, bring it with you."
Li Qing was filled with joy when he got the answer he wanted, "I will serve Alang to take a bath."
Halfway through the bath, I turned into a bathroom and swimming pool, playing in the water, blending in and out, scoring twice...
