Chapter 660 Reckless things
After dark, light candles were lit in the palace of the Tang Dynasty, which was rare in the past because the Tang Dynasty had poor health and weak eyesight. In addition, the suffering of being imprisoned with his father and brother in his early years did not go to school early like other relatives, so they had limited knowledge and did not like reading books. In addition, the Tang Dynasty was frugal, so unless there were important guests in the palace, they rarely lit two light candles like today.★Because this was a waste in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty.
The two servants who served the Tang Wang and his wife went to rest, while the other was busy boiling water. After the water boiled, the Tang Wang brought the brewed tea and brought it over. She knew that the guests her husband met were all big men outside. The Tang Wang's guests were indeed big men, with three people, namely Pan Yinglong, the military supervisor of Zhongzhen Camp, Hong Yuao, the minister of the governor of Chuan Chu, and Guo Zhiqi, the Grand Secretary of the Yongli Court.
Although this Lady of the Tang King was not the Princess of Tang, she was just a concubine who escaped from Guangzhou with the Tang King. She could even be said to be a maid, and she had no status. Therefore, according to the etiquette system, Guo Zhiqi, Pan Yinglong and others did not have to salute to this Lady of the Tang King at all. However, after the Lady of the Tang King came in, the three of them immediately stood up from their seats and saluted to Mrs. Tang King to show their respect for the woman who had always followed and cared for the Tang King.
Mrs. Tang was a little uncomfortable with being saluted by the officials, and she didn't know how to react with the tea. Wang Yi smiled slightly and signaled her to put the tea down.
"It's Mrs. Lau."
Because Pan Yinglong was a eunuch, his voice was sharper than that of ordinary people. Mrs. Wang of Tang was a little surprised when she heard this, but when she saw her face was pale, she immediately knew that this person was an eunuch. When she was in Guangzhou, she had seen many father-in-laws who fled from Fujing.
"Madam is tired today, so go and have a rest."
When the King of Tang knew that the wife was not used to hospitality, he waved her hand to signal her to go down first. The King of Tang nodded, and he paid a bow to Guo Zhiqi and the others according to his previous habit of being a maid. Then he retreated, and before leaving, he closed the door.
"It's all a lot of people, and you don't think of it as a first-class person, but you can see the situation in Gu Mansion, so you don't blame Gu Yan."
The King of Tang laughed at himself and reached out to hold the tea bowl. He might feel it was a bit hot, or the foam was floating too much on it, so he blew it a few times with his mouth before taking a sip.
This tea is the best Biluochun, but unfortunately it is all about mozi. Since the Taiping Army restored Guangzhou, the situation in Wencun has long been great. Local officials, Wang Xing and others have not brought good tea for the King of Tang, nor have they thought of rebuilding the royal mansion for the King of Tang, or moving to the county town of Taishan better living. Zhou Shixiang also sent someone to invite the King of Tang to move to Guangzhou, hoping to free up the Pingnan Prince's Mansion where he lived for the King of Tang, but this was rejected by the King of Tang. As for this tea, now
The King of Tang could drink better tea at any time, and even the best tea in Guangdong would be the one in Guangdong at any time. After all, there was only such a relative vassal in Guangdong. But the King of Tang never opened his mouth. He just wanted to drink these bad teas in the eyes of others, instead of throwing them away because he saw the misery of the world for a lot of the world. He always felt that he could still live, have a bite of food, and have a sip of tea, which was the most beautiful thing in the world.
In life, there is food, clothing, tea and drink, what else can I ask for?
"Your Highness's words are not what we are thinking."
The Tang King said this, Guo Zhiqi and the others smiled and said that His Highness was too humble and picked up the tea bowls one after another. Not to mention, although the bowl was full of moist, it looked rough, but after entering the throat, the heart and lungs felt clear and clear, which had a unique taste.
"Good tea, this tea is fragrant and secreted directly into the heart. When you enter the throat, you will feel endless aftertaste."
Hong Yuao said sincerely that he was actually similar to the King of Tang in Wen Village in Kuidong over the years, and he was short of food and clothing. The King of Tang opened a vegetable field behind the mansion, and he often went to the fields to farm with the people like an old farmer. Speaking of which, it was very similar to the King of Tang's experience. In addition to Emperor Longwu, he was closest to the King of Tang, and the King of Tang was so virtuous. Why didn't he respect him well and firmly support the King of Tang's will to supervise the country?
Guo Zhiqi took a sip and said happily: "Tea can calm the mind and mind, which helps cultivate sentiments and remove distracting thoughts. Once a person is irritated, if he can drink a cup of tea, he will have clear thoughts and broader thoughts. The ancients really did not deceive me." The last sentence seemed to be full of emotion.
When Eunuch Pan heard this, he couldn't help but put down his tea bowl and said, "What do the Grand Secretary have any opinions?"
"The insight is not enough. After drinking this tea, Zhiqi's heart was completely distracted." Speaking of this, Guo Zhiqi paused for a moment and couldn't help but recite: "I woke up and broke the boat and the purple bamboo shoots were enfeoffed before dawn. After the fire stones and cold food, the temples fell in front of the couch. Once the fragrance of spring dew can last forever, the breeze of thousands of miles has been ready. You can still get away from the escape and transform into the sacred boat, and Penglai has not yet asked the immortals."
The King of Tang had not received much education since he was a child. He did not know what poems Guo Grand Secretary recited, and Eunuch Pan also read very little, so the two were naturally confused about the poems that Guo Grand Secretary suddenly recited. However, Hong Yuao knew that this poem was a tea poem written by Yuan Haowen, a poet of Yuan Haowen. However, compared with this famous poem among the scholars and officials, another poem by Yuan Haowen was familiar with the streets and alleys, especially the sentence "Ask the world, what is love, and it is directly taught to be together for life and death" has attracted many infatuated men and women.
Poetry can express meaning. Hong Yuao looked at Guo Zhiqi and knew that he would not recite Yuan Haowen's tea poem for no reason. He immediately said, "The Grand Secretary must have made a decision?"
Guo Zhiqi nodded slightly, stood up and bowed to the King of Tang, and asked, "Your Highness is the country that people want, please do not refuse!"
Seeing this, Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao also stood up and bowed, and the former said: "Zhongzhen Camp and Yaohuang Shisanjia both support His Highness's reign."
The King of Tang knew that the three of them must be the matter of surveillance of the country when they came to see each other, but he really did not want to do this, so he sat upright and pondered without saying a word.
Hong Yuao said anxiously: "If Your Highness does not supervise the country, there will be no master in the world. Can Your Highness really endure the demise of his ancestors and the country? Your Highness really does not want to take revenge for Longwu and Emperor Shaowu?"
When Hong Yuao heard that the fake emperor Shaowu was also on par with Emperor Longwu, Guo Zhiqi and Pan Yinglong both frowned slightly, but they immediately explained that if the Tang King was successful in the country, they would probably be the new emperor in the future. In this case, Emperor Shaowu would probably not be the fake emperor.
Hong Yuao's words finally moved the King of Tang. He slowly stood up, looked at the three of them, sighed, and said, "You are forcing me to force me! You are so busy with me! Some people can understand that I am not aware of being polite. Indeed, I am really like a person who is ignorant of being polite. You are all loyal ministers and righteous men of the Ming Dynasty. I ask you, have you ever thought that Zhou Shi hugged me and the country, and that I only learned from Sun Kewang. If things are done in the future, I will do that reckless thing?"
