I have a herb garden

Chapter 374

By virtue of the princess's reconciliation with Li, Emperor Yanwu once again showed the world the means of thunder.

King Qi copied and beheaded, and his family members distributed him.King Ming continued to be imprisoned in the Zongsi Mansion, the difference was that this time he was accompanied by King Feng.

For a while, no one dared to discuss the establishment of a reserve.

Concubine Si narrowly escaped death in this incident, Emperor Yanwu felt more and more guilty towards her, and often stayed at Concubine Si's place, giving her unrivaled favor.

The entire Yan capital is discussing, and everyone knows about Emperor Wu's heart.This is clearly to get rid of all the princes and princes, paving the way for the future little prince.

Of course, there are also people who are promoted here.That's the origami.

He was originally the minister of Honghe Temple, and he belonged to the fourth-rank official title.

After this incident, Emperor Yanwu named him Minister of Taichang Temple.Taichang Temple is one of the five temples, alongside Dali Temple, Taipu Temple, Guanglu Temple, and Honglu Temple. It is in charge of the etiquette of the ancestral temple and belongs to the third grade.

All the ministers congratulated, it must be rare to see such a young and promising minister of Taichang Temple.

When rewarding Zheyu, Emperor Yanwu did not forget his promise to Baicaoshi.

All the chrysanthemums in the chrysanthemum garden belonged to Baicaoshi, and they were left to her disposal.

This incident caused an uproar in the circle of noble girls in Yanjing.

The noble ladies discovered overnight that the concubine who found fault at that time had already been assigned.And the little-known little village girl, among the girls, can actually talk to the emperor. This has to make them re-evaluate the strength of Baicaoshi, lest one day in the future, if they don't have long eyes and collide with her, they will not die. Know.

The picking of chrysanthemums was handled by the people sent by Emperor Yanwu.However, Baicaoshi did not forget to remind the precautions.

After all, the amount is too large, and it might cause waste, which is really wasteful.

In the next few days, the people of Yanjing saw that one carriage after another drove into the Prince Xu's Mansion of the Sixteenth Prince's residence, which once caused traffic paralysis.

Hey, it's all the fault of the chrysanthemums.

**
When Zhe Yu went to court and went to Taichang Temple to order Mao, Baicao Shi was at home directing everyone to clean up.

The crowd included Hongqu, Li Jianping, Eucommia, Ding Xiang, and the four guards who accompanied Zhe Yu to Yunzhao.

Jiuniang and Duan Shaoyi are not included, because blue and white porcelain clothing has set off a fashion storm in the circle of noble women in Yanjing.

Beautiful clothes are one aspect, and the leading role of the eldest princess cannot be ignored.Although the eldest princess has reconciled, it does not affect her rising popularity in the slightest.In the past, women in Yanjing envied Shen Liqing, and they should be like Shen Liqing when they had a daughter, but now they should be like the eldest princess.Who stipulates that only men can have three wives and four concubines, but women can't?The eldest princess did what they failed to do.

See, this is the power of example.

Baicao Poetry can be regarded as unintentionally planted willows and willows.

Orders for blue and white workshops surged.

Jiuniang and Duan Shaoyi accept customization from customers every day, and they are simply too busy.

Duan Shaoyi often complained to the shopkeeper Baicaoshi, "It was agreed to only draw two paintings a month, why is it getting worse now? Look at my brother's hand, the brush is calloused."

He stretched out his skinny and fat hand to show Baicaoshi, there was a glistening pit on it.

Baicaoshi knocked on Duan Shaoyi's palm with a broom, and put her hands on her hips, "I said Master Duan, how much money I promised you at the beginning, how much money do you get every month now? If you have the ability, spit out all the money, I will pay you in a month." Let you draw two pictures. Now that you are financially free, you have more confidence to go to the brothel, why don't you say it?"

Duan Shaoyi cried out pain from the corner of her mouth, "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", "my shopkeeper, my aunt. Don't let Hongqu hear this. I have never been to a brothel again? Girls in a brothel, how can you compare?" Play red and green songs?"

There is a saying that once the sea was too difficult to be water, except Wushan is not a cloud.

Duan Shaoyi is still working hard to conquer Hongqu, but Hongqu doesn't seem to be very interested in him.

This made Baicaoshi faintly rejoice that his silly brother Bai Xiaoshu might really have something to do.

Participating in the cleaning was also Tai Wen who was disguised, that is, Chonglou.

Baicaoshi found an embarrassing thing.

When she was in Naqi, she gave names to the four guards. At that time, the four people were named Chonglou, Gentiana Qin, Asarum, and Dendrobium respectively.Later, when she named Tai Wen, she also wrote down four names, but Tai Wen chose Chonglou.Now two of the young men in the family are called Chonglou.

It would be embarrassing to change the name again, so Baicaoshi simply called Tai Wen the Big Chonglou and the guards the Little Chonglou.

Of course, in order to appease the hurt hearts of the babies with the same name, she rewarded each of them with a lot of delicacies, including Quanjufang's internet celebrity food Jiujiu duck neck, and the sound of spicy "hissing" and grinning everywhere in the palace.

She also donated gold sore medicines from the Golden Elephant Museum in two heavy buildings.Now the golden sore medicine in the hospital is almost contracted by the imperial military department. The two people are like treasures when they get the golden sore medicine.

Without whips, these people washed the bluestone slabs in the yard and every inch of tile on the eaves.

What do you do for cleaning?Of course it is drying chrysanthemums.

Carloads of chrysanthemums are brought in and dried on the spot.

In the team sending chrysanthemums, Baicaoshi noticed a young man.

He was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and his pair of slender eyes were very cute.The most important thing is that the chrysanthemums he transported are better than others, and the useless branches are all removed.

Baicaoshi directed everyone to dry it on the spot.

"Girl, let me help you." The young man volunteered. He smiled with a dimple, which was refreshing and clean.

Baicaoshi spread the chrysanthemums on the bluestone board with a basket, and talked to the young man, "Are you in charge of the chrysanthemum garden? I can always see you these days."

The young man spread out the chrysanthemums skillfully, and said, "Girl, I am a buddy named Baishun. I have been in the chrysanthemum garden for a year, and I usually take care of these chrysanthemums. You don't know, last year these flowers, except for a few I picked it up for the nobles to make wine, and it was all wilted after the first frost, so I can make the best use of it this year."

Baicaoshi thought this young man was very nice, and after drying the chrysanthemums, she went to the room to get some broken silver and filled half a bag of wolfberry chrysanthemums she had saved before, "Hey, you flower grower haven't had chrysanthemum tea yet , give you some goodies."

Baishun put his hand on his lap and licked it, and smiled awkwardly, "Girl, I'll accept the tea you give me. I won't be rewarded for nothing."

Baicaoshi insisted on giving it away, "If I have to say the words of praise, the chrysanthemums you sent are good, I see it."

Baishun gave a big gift to Baicaoshi, and then took the tea and money with both hands, "Girl, your heart is so kind."

When he turned to leave, Baicaoshi saw that he raised his arm, which was the movement of wiping his eyes.Afterwards, he quickly disappeared.

After the person left, Hongqu walked around to Baicaoshi, "I don't know if I treat the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but he seems to want to show it in front of you."

Once in and out of Fengyuechang, Hongqu is more sophisticated than Baicaoshi.

Baicaoshi knew that both Zheyu and she were already influential figures in Yanjing, and there would be countless pairs of eyes staring at them.This feeling is very exhausting, and she still wants to maintain a trust between people. "Maybe, he's just a flower lover."

"I hope so." Hongqu finally couldn't bear to spoil her interest.

Next, Baicaoshi ordered several guards, "Everyone, bring the pot over here, and let's start steaming the flowers."

The chrysanthemums that are initially dried must go through the process of being placed in a steamer.

After the water in the iron pot is boiled, put two or three steaming flower trays, and put the dried flowers on the steaming flower trays, with the stamens upward and evenly arranged.

Baicaoshi explained while operating: "The fire for steaming flowers should be strong and even. Add hot water once after steaming. There should be less water at the bottom of the pot, otherwise the water vapor will affect the quality of tea. The steaming time is about one stick of incense, and the time If it is too long, the flowers will be soaked and it is not easy to dry; if the steaming time is short, there will be fresh flowers again. When they are just out of the cage, the petals are not attached to the steamer, and the color is off-white, and the wind turns red in a short time brown."

After the steamed chrysanthemums are exposed to the sun for another three or four days, the flower hearts are completely dry and hard before being stored.

The whole production of chrysanthemum tea takes about seven days.

As for chrysanthemum wine, it is much more complicated.

In a blink of an eye, time entered October.

"Ma'am, so much chrysanthemum tea and chrysanthemum wine, will it take a long time to finish?" Da Chonglou asked.It was different from the life of walking in the dark as imagined, Tai Wen changed his appearance a little, and lived in the palace in a dignified way.

Baicaoshi sorted out some tea and wine, and pointed her finger, "These are for the palace; these are for Wanzhou; these are for the mansion's own use, and these are for the common people."

Tea and wine are divided into categories and packaged in different ways.The most elegant ones for the palace are the tea labels and wine labels drawn by Duan Shaoyi himself; the ones for personal use are not packaged.Even if it entered the mouth of the public, Da Chonglou thought it was very interesting, but I couldn't put it into words.

"Quanjufang, you know, there is one in Yanjing now. The rest of these are supplied to Quanjufang."

Da Chonglou was extremely surprised.

"Of course I know Quanjufang. Although it has not opened in Yanjing for a long time, its momentum is rising rapidly, and it is faintly surpassing the number one building in the world. Is it also the property of the son and wife?"

He originally thought that as a son-in-law, he lived a life of rich clothes and fine food, but compared with the wealth of the son and wife today, he really pales in comparison.

Baicaoshi didn't answer directly, it was too Versailles, she couldn't bear the majestic son-in-law, and suffered a critical blow of [-] points in her heart.

But some people are not welcome.

"These are Madam's property. I, like you, live on soft food." Zhe Yu, who came back from Taichang Temple, said without any disturbance.

Da Chonglou: "..."

I'm worried, old man.

Who made the young master eat soft food so righteously and aboveboard?Da Chonglou stroked the hair on his head, smoothed it backwards, and said: "The mountains stand upright, and the scenery stops."

His admiration for the young master is like Taotao Yanshui.

In the next few days, the chrysanthemum tea and chrysanthemum wine produced in Yanjing were distributed to Quanjufang in Yansong, and they became a must-eat drink for local gourmets.
