Datang Nongwang

Chapter 600
The arrival of Li Shimin's family immediately set off a climax in the Li family.

As for the whole Lifang, many people gathered around at this moment, wanting to see the excitement of the Li family. Of course, they wanted to be closer, and wanted to take a good look at the emperor of the Tang Kingdom.

As Li Shimin's family entered the hall, Li Yuan was alone sitting in the first place, so Li Shimin quickly walked towards Li Yuan with his children.

"I pay homage to my father." Li Shimin did not expect that Li Yuan had been staying in Lizhuang well, but today he was sitting here, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

but.

Embarrassed, he also had to salute Li Yuan.

"Grandson and granddaughter pay respects to grandfather." Li Chengqian and the others hurriedly imitated Li Shimin and saluted Li Yuan.

Li Yuan didn't even look at Li Shimin, but beckoned to Xiao Si, "Si, come, come to grandfather."

When Li Shimin and others saw this, the embarrassment on their faces became even worse.

The old lady hurried over, "Uncle, today is a rare and auspicious day, Uncle, please speak, whether the banquet will be held or not."

This embarrassment dissipated in the old lady's words.

And Li Shimin and others were also invited to take their seats. After Li Yuan saw that everyone was already seated, he said, "Let's open the table, and bring out today's protagonist, so that everyone can take a good look."

With Li Yuan's words, the old lady quickly winked at the housekeeper.

for a moment.

The dishes are also starting to be served.

And Lin Caishu, who had been in the backyard, came to the hall with her one-month-old baby in her arms after hearing the news.

"Wow, is this Siwen? Why is it so small?" When Li Shangwu was carried over, Sizi was the first to flash up to Lin Caishu, poking his head into Lin Caishu's arms and looking at Lin Caishu who was sleeping soundly Look at the little guy.

How big can a baby who is only one month old be?

Moreover.

When Li Shangwu was born, his weight was already light, less than six catties.

Even after a month of growth, his body is still very small, and his weight has only increased by two catties.

The little guy who weighs less than eight catties, in the eyes of Sizi, isn't he small.

but.

Sizi's unintentional words made everyone laugh, "Sizi, when you were born, you were just like Siwen, very small."

"Although little princess Si is small, she is very energetic."

"That's right. I remember that when the little princess Sizi was born, the Holy Majesty just took a day off to bathe. Little princess Sizi, look how kind your father is to you."

"."

Taking advantage of this time, it would be most appropriate to say a few words of flattery.

Moreover.

In ordinary days, it is rare to have such an atmosphere.

After Li Shangwu has been seen by everyone, there will never be any shortage of words of blessing.

At the same time, after Li Shangwu was carried back, followed by the butler, there were many more greetings.

From Li's house to the street outside Li's house.

Anyone who has met Li Shangwu, no matter how important or minor, will give a meeting gift.

As for the heavy one, it is naturally Li Shimin's.

If it's light, it belongs to Xiao Sizi.

The meeting gifts given by adults like Li Shimin were either jade, or ornaments made of gold or silver.

As for the little one, she gave Li Shangwu a toy that she liked very much, and specifically told Li Shangwu who had woken up, "Siwen, you will be a general in the future, and when the time comes, beat all the bad guys away." .My toy has been with me for several years, you must take it with you when you are a general and fight bad people, she can protect people."

Xiao Sizi's childish words made everyone laugh again.

This kind of smile is not malicious, but a flattering smile.

As soon as the seats are opened.

Everyone couldn't stop.

Why?

The reason was that Li Chongyuan was generous this time.

Let's not talk about the food, just talk about the wine.

That's the good wine that Li Chongyuan got from the cellar of Li Zhuang's warehouse, and it's a pure knife that can't be purer.

And as soon as the burning knife came out.

All call it good wine.

But Li Shimin looked at the bowl of burning knives in front of him, glanced at Li Chongyuan who was busy not far away, and frowned.

Just like this wine, he, Li Shimin, has fallen on it once.

to this end.

As soon as Li Shimin smelled the wine, he knew that it was the same as the dime he drank in the Yingbin Building before, without any difference.

As for the big bowl of wine in front of him, Li Shimin just took a sip, but he didn't dare to take a sip.

He is not like others.

It's like Wei Zheng, who is the best wine, when he smelled such good wine, he didn't even listen to the old lady's words, and he just got bored.

"Hiss, good wine, good wine! I never thought there would be such a strong wine in this world. Mrs. Xiangjun, why have you never mentioned such good wine?" After Wei Zheng finished drinking a bowl of burning knives, he looked directly at Ask the old lady not far away.

Come on.

The Yingbin Building also sells alcohol.

Although he, Wei Zheng, had heard of it, he had never tasted it.

Even if Wei Zheng wanted to taste it, he didn't have the money.

Wei Zheng said that being poor is not poor, and saying that being rich is not rich, after all, people who don't even have a shop can't get rich if they want to be rich.

In addition, he has so many sons to raise, even if he is a good wine, he is really reluctant to spend so much money to drink a bowl of Shaodao that others say is delicious in the Yingbin Building.

Moreover.

He, Wei Zheng, was originally a brewer, and he really didn't pay attention to the wine made by others.

Even if it was in the public domain, or between officials in the court and the central government, the rumors between them spread to his Wei Zheng's ears, and he, Wei Zheng, never took it seriously.

Now.

He had tasted the good wine rumored in Chang'an once.

According to records.

Tang Taizong Li Shimin once wrote a poem to Wei Zheng, which was called "Giving Wei Zheng".

This poem was specially used by Li Shimin to appreciate Wei Zheng's wine-making skills.

醽醁 wins Lansheng, Cuitao passes Yuchan.

Drunk for a thousand days, undefeated for ten years.

I don't want to say whether the poem is good or not, but from this matter, it is certain that Wei Zheng is the famous winemaker in the dynasty.

but.

This poem is the wine made from countless grapes after Li Shimin conquered the Western Regions in the later period of his reign.

Compared with the current burning knife, it is really incomparable.

Seeing Wei Zheng questioning, the old lady smiled and said, "It's hard to talk about it, it's hard to talk about it."

what to say.

The old lady didn't want to talk about it.

The wine made by his own son is unique in the world.

From the old lady's point of view, Li Chongyuan's winemaking skills are number one in the world, unmatched by anyone, and she doesn't want outsiders to know about it.

The old lady's words aroused Wei Zheng's heart even more.

but.

It's the Li family's big banquet right now, so it's not easy for him to follow up and ask.

drink.

Keep drinking.

The servants hurriedly filled another bowl for Wei Zheng, but Wei Zheng felt bored again without saying a word.

But after this suffocation.

Wei Zheng's eyes started to go dizzy, and he looked down on the scene.

He shook his head, swayed his body, and said to the servant: "Pour, fill me up again. Such a good wine, I, Wei, must drink eight bowls today. Pour it quickly."

The servant looked at the old lady helplessly. After the old lady nodded slightly, the servant continued to pour wine for Wei Zheng.

You can eat with this third bowl.

Wei Zheng didn't even eat his food, and fell directly on the desk, talking nonsense.

And after this scene appeared, Li Shimin shook his head, "I didn't have enough alcohol and said I would drink eight bowls. I think you poured three bowls. You brag about how much you drink in front of me every day. It's all right now, see." You will still have the nerve to brag about your drinking capacity in front of me in the future."

Wei Zheng was drunk.

And got drunk a little too fast.

This also made the people who drank the burning knife burst out laughing, pointing at Wei Zheng who was already on the ground.

As for Cheng Yaojin and the others, there are people who burn knives in their family. They know best that this wine must be drunk slowly, and they have to drink it one sip in order to enjoy the taste of burning knives.

Drink slowly.

A sip of wine and a few sips of food is delicious.

Even Li Shimin is the same.

In the evening.

The Li family's full moon wine is now over.

When the last person was sent away, the Li family breathed a sigh of relief, "Mother, if this table is held frequently, I think we will die of poverty in the future."

"You, it's just a little wine, why should you be so distressed." The old lady knew that Li Chongyuan cared about his wine.

It's hard not to feel bad.

For this full moon wine, Li Chongyuan directly finished all the wine that Li Chongyuan brought from Li Zhuang.

You definitely can't drink much.

However, before returning to the palace, Li Shimin removed all the remaining five jars of unopened wine, leaving nothing to Li Chongyuan.

Five altars.

Li Chongyuan was so regretful that his intestines turned green.

This is worth a lot of money, so Li Shimin moved it away, and Li Chongyuan didn't even leave the jar.

It started the day after the Li family's grand and lively full moon wine ended.

The honorable officials in Chang'an City from time to time asked Li's family where the wine came from.

but.

The Li family didn't say anything, they just said that they couldn't say anything.

A few days after the banquet, Li Chongyuan, who returned to Li Zhuang early, was comforting Li Yuan who lost his temper, "Uncle, you really can't drink too much of this wine. It's strong wine, your body can't resist it." Strong wine. Uncle, listen to my advice, just drink half a bowl of snake wine brewed by Imperial Physician Zhang a day, if you continue to drink, you will not be able to walk this way."

"Bullshit. Uncle, I'm in good health. Let me tell you, if you don't give me wine today, be careful of your dog legs." Li Yuan still didn't listen to the persuasion.

Wine, he must drink it, and he didn't drink snake wine anymore, saying that he must drink those burning knives that Li Chongyuan kept.

Indeed.

The smell of the snake wine was weird, and it was stored differently from the burning knives that Li Chongyuan kept in the cellar of the warehouse, so the taste of the wine was slightly different.

In terms of strength, concentration and mellowness, it must be that pure Shaodaozi wine tastes better.

But no matter how good the wine is, Li Chongyuan has to consider Li Yuan's body.

He didn't want his big backer to fall, otherwise, Li Chongyuan would cry to death in the hut.

Li Chongyuan stretched out his hand, "No, you can hit as much as you like, anyway, there is no such thing. If you want to drink, the only thing you can do is snake wine."

Li Chongyuan played a scoundrel, don't say he is not afraid of Li Yuan, even Li Shimin is not afraid of him.

It's not like he really wants to beat Li Chongyuan up just for a sip of wine.

Just as the two were in a stalemate, a guard walked into the courtyard from the outside, "My lord, Mr. Xiaolang, the officials are here."

When Li Chongyuan and Li Chongyuan heard that the officials were coming, Li Yuan, who was still making a fuss just now, glared at Li Chongyuan fiercely.

"Who's here?" Li Chongyuan returned a smiling face to Li Yuan, and followed the guards to the outside of the courtyard.

After a while.

Li Chongyuan came outside Li Zhuang, "It turned out to be Zhang Shilang. Why do you have time to come to my Li Zhuang today? Come on, first go to my small courtyard and sit down. I'll pick a melon for you to eat."

"Marquis Li County, you are being polite, I won't eat this melon. I have to go back to the office as soon as I finish my work." Seeing Li Chongyuan coming, Zhang Shilang talked to Li Chongyuan like an old acquaintance .

Zhang Shilang, named Zhang Ben, is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he is an official of the fourth rank.

Its position is second only to the post of Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Zhang Ben and Li Chongyuan are also old acquaintances, because Zhang Ben was originally Li Chongyuan's father's subordinate, so it is correct to say that they are old acquaintances.

Later, after Li Chongyuan's father died in Yizhou, Zhang Ben was transferred to another state to work as a private driver, and then he was promoted again.

Zhang Ben was transferred back to Chang'an from the beginning of the year to take up the post of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, which can be regarded as a high promotion.

A few days ago, the Li family held a full moon wine, and the old lady specially sent Li Chongji to announce the good news. Zhang Ben attended Li Shangwu's full moon wine with a big gift.

Li Chongyuan knew that this old acquaintance spoke like this, so he was no longer polite, and asked knowingly: "The assistant Zhang, why did you come to Li Zhuang today?"

"Li County Marquis, I'm here to convey the official document. However, our two families are old friends, so you have to be mentally prepared." Zhang Ben took out the official document and said.

Li Chongyuan didn't think there was any fuss about Zhang Ben's psychological preparation.

It's nothing more than going to Yangzhou to be the governor of Yangzhou, so how can I have any psychological preparations, "Zhang Shilang, tell me, it doesn't mean that I want to cancel my job as acting governor of Yangzhou?"

"Will it be enough? Since you, Marquis of Li County, have already prepared, then you can see for yourself." Zhang Ben didn't want to say much, and directly handed over the official document to Li Chongyuan.

When Li Chongyuan took over the official document from the Ministry of Officials, he opened it and immediately made Li Chongyuan a little angry.

On top of the official document, Li Chongyuan was asked to leave Beijing to take up his post within seven days, and Li Chongyuan was required to arrive in Yangzhou within one month, otherwise he would be severely punished.

For a governor to take office, at least ten days, half a month to a month of preparation time will be given from the time he receives the official document from the official department, and if the journey is far away, the time to arrive in the state where he will be appointed will be relaxed.

But when he came to Li Chongyuan, there was only seven days to prepare, and Li Chongyuan was given one month to take office.

Li Chongyuan looked at the official document in his hand, and was very angry, "This is an official document from some bastard. Seven days, is this a funeral? I, Li Chongyuan, are not dead yet, so set me up for seven days. No, I want Ask the Holy One to comment, I want to see which bastard is playing this game behind the scenes."

Li Chong was full of energy.

There is no time for seven days.

Even if it is a small official, the Ministry of Officials will give at least ten days to prepare.

And he, Li Chongyuan, is also a governor, but he is a governor of the fourth rank, what is he doing for seven days, is it to give him a funeral for Li Chongyuan!
