Chapter 982 (2/2)
So Li Hong began not to change the tea, but to drink a pot of tea without the taste of tea. Then he saw off the guests. At first, it was better. Some of the courtiers knew that it was his Majesty's order to leave after they could not taste the tea.
However, as Li Hong's move became more and more familiar, the ministers gradually came back from the faint taste of tea. This was the emperor's intention. It was to drive them away!
As a result, some officials began to drink another kind of kungfu tea with Li Hong, that is, to see who has patience and who has consumed energy. Thus, the tea art of the Tang emperor has risen sharply. Even Chen QingHan, who knows most about tea art, dare not say how much higher than Li Hong in tea art.
What's more hateful is that some ministers who love to drink tea even brought their own tea when they learned that the emperor's tea was so tasteless that they took out the prepared tea from their arms and ordered him to taste it with his majesty. As a minister, he did not dare to enjoy it alone.
Li Hong was so angry that he could only turn his eyes and wave his hand impatiently when he faced a courtier whose skin was as thick as the city wall. Then he waved impatiently and began to ask the maids to change tea and brew again. He was too lazy to wait on him.
When Li Shangjin and Li Sujie are outside, we can hear some interesting stories about the relationship between the monarchs and the officials in the imperial court. Moreover, the ”fangjiantianxia” will also disclose information from time to time. Naturally, they will receive it from the fiefdoms in each issue of fangjiantianxia.
But only one issue was not received. It is said that the issue published some embarrassing things about your majesty. It was only stopped immediately after it was published in Chang'an and other places.
also heard that she stopped paying a lot of money for the royal highness of the Tang Dynasty because of the halting of the royal highness of the Tang Dynasty.
”Is it true?” Li Sujie asked with a smile that Li Hong was busy working on the tea plate.
”There is...” Li Hong drew out his voice, then sneered and said, ”I'm still angry with me. It's not only me that day, but also the officials and the sixth, the seventh and the eighth. The emperor took the royal princes and the other officials with their faces as if they had just been pulled out of the coal pile. They were black and black, with only two eyes and a mouth of white teeth, In the evening, the imperial platform and the Ministry of rites and so on, began to run to my Zichen hall, and almost didn't bother me to death. ””What a pity.” Li Shangjin shakes his head with a look of regret. If there is a day of ”the world in the street”, he must be mounted and hung in the main hall.
”Laoliu and they are all busy now. There is no peace on the way here. There are many memorials flying to them along the way, about the big food, about the power plant and the rail. In a word, none of them are here now. It is estimated that they are all in a hurry to deal with the aftermath. ” Li Hong put the tea cup full of tea fragrance in front of them and poured the tea ceremony in person.
”It's getting more and more difficult. I heard that there are still people blocking the way?” Li Sujie became a gossip.
Li Hong rolled his eyes and looked at him. Then he said, ”it's normal. In the Tang Dynasty, the situation is changing too fast. Before they react, everything will be different from before. According to the pattern of the former aristocratic families, we can no longer have a foothold in this era. The court should have been the slowest response to the world situation, but now everything is promoted by the court, and then the people follow the reform. Only those aristocratic families who are immobile and intend to use static braking are abandoned by the wheel of rapid development in the current of the times
Li Hong motioned for them to taste the tea they had brought. After smelling it with enjoyment, Li Hong said, ”I have learned a saying recently, which is called: the world is changing, and the talent of aristocratic families is getting worse and worse. There is a reason.”
