Chapter 44 The Imperial

Master Song's eyes suddenly turned red. He quickly pressed the corners of his eyes with his sleeves and turned his head to look at the shopkeeper Sun: "Two-one adds more than five, just open three or seven. I three, your boss will take seven."

"You're welcome. Although you only paid a hundred taels of silver, the teahouse will become bigger in the future, and it will have to rely on your husband's care. Although our fifth master is small, he is also a sensible person. Half of it is not enough. That's settled."

Within two days, the shopkeeper Sun and Master Song finished the house deed and other things. They chose an auspicious day, opened the two yards and reorganized the layout. The master's house was indeed very elegant. Li Xiaoyao looked at it carefully and did not change much, but went to the overlapping doors and thresholds and removed a few. The virgin wall makes the whole yard more bright and transparent. In this way, the wisteria looks ordinary outside, but there is a unique hole inside.

Master Sun recruited six tea doctors in the city. While repairing the house, Li Xiaoyao taught and trained six new tea doctors together with Zhao Wuge and Zhang Gouzi for half a month. The house was repaired, and the people were almost trained. The wisteria opened again in a low profile.

After reopening, Li Xiaoyao quietly replaced all the cups, dishes and bowls of Wisteria House with the best fine white porcelain that Zheng Cheng could buy. The amount of tea soup, snacks and wine was half, but the price doubled. Master Song sat under the wisteria shelf and looked at the bright and clean table that could be used as a mirror. The tea snacks are as beautiful and exquisite as a painting, sighing: "Sun, your master, this vision is amazing! It's a big business!"

Shopkeeper Sun sat beside him with a smile on his face: "The fifth master lived in Taiping Mansion for a while."

Master Song really moved Lord Yan and opened the Zhongyuan poetry meeting in Wisteria House. After this poem meeting, Lord Yan was extremely satisfied. This wisteria house, from the house to eating tea and wine, made him feel the elegance of Taiping Mansion. General Yuan grew up in Taiping Mansion and felt even more cordial and unusual in this remote area. The desolate Zheng Cheng finally felt a trace of the exquisiteness of Taiping Mansion.

In the next few literary and poetry fairs, Wisteria House will naturally become the best choice. After the Double Ninth Festival, Wisteria House will become the most elegant place in the hearts of literati in Zhengcheng and several nearby counties and towns.

In a small courtyard covered by a vine tree in the east of Wisteria, Li Xiaoyao was lying on a rocking chair and was looking at a new mansion. In the middle, there was a letter written by Su Zicheng, the second prince of the State of Peiping, to the Emperor of Wu? It's a letter. Almost every line of the letter mentions Princess Funing. Under the sincere weeping expression, it is an aggressive question. Why did the State of Wu station troops in Zheng Cheng without moving at all? Is it just like watching the princess suffer indifferently? Is the relationship between brother and sister so indifferent to this?

Li Xiaoyao leaned back on the back of the chair and raised the mansion to copy. Such a letter was actually copied on the mansion. Who asked to copy it? What do you want to do? What is blamed is not the feelings of father and daughter, but the indifference of brothers and sisters. Naturally, the sister is Princess Funing. What about the brother? Which brother? The only brother who has the ability to be indifferent is the eldest prince. So, the court is still the court of Concubine Wu, and the Taiping Mansion is also the Taiping Mansion of Concubine Wu. I'm afraid this letter is copied on the mansion. In this way, I'm afraid that Zheng Cheng will be peaceful for a few days.

Sister Zhang agreed and ran in to change her clothes. Li Zonggui ordered a lantern and handed it to the shopkeeper Sun. The shopkeeper Sun sent Sister Zhang to the kitchen and went to call up several people in the kitchen and Brother Zhao Wu. Several people made fire, kneaded their faces, and became busy.

Watching the two go out, Li Xiaoyao took a stack of mansion and copied it out. From the latest one, he looked forward one by page carefully. He closed the mansion and turned his head to look at Li Zonggui, who stretched his legs and leaned back on the back of the chair. He sighed and said, "It is reasonable that this imperial envoy will come out, and be written on the copy of the mansion. Lord Wu, tomorrow It's about to enter Zhengcheng. Zhengcheng's government office only received a letter at this time. It seems that this imperial envoy is going to catch anyone off guard or be afraid of shocking someone, so he has to come quietly. Lord Yan is from his Wu family. He got the letter tonight. What about the general outside the city? Did you get the letter tonight?

Li Zonggui spread his hands and signaled that he didn't know. Li Xiaoyao lowered his head, copied the mansion one by one and put them away again. He slowly sorted out the surging thoughts in his heart for a long time, and then continued to say, "I always feel that Yuan Dashuai doesn't know about this imperial envoy. Brother Guizi might as well go outside the north gate early tomorrow morning to guard it. Maybe you can see who sent the letter to Marshal Yuan's camp. Look at the commander-in-chief. If you get many letters, you will be able to come here.

Li Zonggui nodded: "Okay, I'll go out to guard at dawn tomorrow. It's the same. I'm not in the city, you just stay in this yard and don't go anywhere!"

"Well, I know." Li Xiaoyao agreed absent-mindedly that Lord Yan and Marshal Yuan were one of the noble concubine Wu and the other was the eldest prince. Originally, but according to the relationship between the literary meeting these days, the two of them at least looked like a group of harmony. Now that Lord Wu has come, can this group of harmony continue? How much can Lord Wu supervise and want to supervise this war? Is there any chance in the middle? The mountain has not been opened for a long time. Although the shop has made some money, on the one hand, it has to be divided into half, and on the other hand, it is usually a very expensive matter to make friends. In fact, there is not much left, and there are many people on the mountain. If the two families are in chaos, it would be great that they may be able to touch something while the chaos.

Lord Wu entered the city at the beginning of the afternoon, and Marshal Yuan rushed to the government office at noon. Li Zonggui saw Marshal Yuan entering the city, but did not see anyone who came out of the city to deliver letters.

Lord Wu temporarily lived in the backyard of the government office. The next afternoon, on the street in front of the wisteria residence, rows of brightly dressed guards sealed the street. Lord Yan stepped back half a step back and accompanied Lord Wu into the wisteria residence.

Li Xiaoyao, dressed in white shorts and trousers, helped Sister Zhang hold the plate in the kitchen. The guard checked around and retreated. Li Xiaoyao put down the plate, stood by the kitchen window, and carefully looked back. Lord Wu was looking up at the ginkgo fruit full of trees with his back. Li Xiaoyao looked at him carefully, more than 50 The appearance of the year is moderately tall, short, fat and thin. He wears a silk gown with a dark green background and a white face with cyan. Maybe it is the reason for standing in a green shade. Is that cyan the reflection of the green shade? The face is excellent, but unfortunately, the bags under the eyes, the corners of the eyes, the corners of the mouth, and the two soft skins under the cheeks are all down together, like a pink bag, which has been carefully folded into the shape of a human face.
