I made Daqin a prosperous world

Chapter 101
Fortunately, Li Yu didn't make things difficult for others, Meng Yi couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

Li Si looked at it clearly and clearly from the sidelines, and he had to admire Li Yu's acting skills, which became more and more proficient.

He was also afraid that his colleague Meng Yi would find it difficult to do so, so he said: "As the saying goes, the number of soldiers is not the most important thing, but the essence is that there are two hundred soldiers who guard the important areas of the capital, and the truth is very reassuring."

Li Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, glanced at Li Si, and cursed in his heart: Don't worry, you ghost, if you meet the enemy, I'm afraid you Li Si will be the first to run away.

What's more, do I, Li Yu, seem to be short of those two hundred guards?

It's all about scolding, but since Li Si has spoken out to help, Li Yu naturally can't be too embarrassing for Meng Yi.

You must know that Meng Yi, as Yingzheng's minister of internal affairs, is really not easy to do the job of a megaphone.

Seeing that Li Si gave the steps, Li Yu took advantage of the situation and said: "Master Xiangguo said that talking is better than nothing, but I should thank Lord Meng for his generosity. Why don't you go to the mansion and drink some tea before leaving?"

Li Si was taken aback when he heard the words, and when he drank water, he said drink water. Why did Li Yu talk about tea?
Li Si frowned suspiciously and asked, "What is the tea that Junhou said?"

Before Li Yu could speak, a glint of hope flashed in Meng Yi's eyes, and he had an idea and said first: "The tea that Lord Hou said, could it be the water soaked in the tea leaves?"

Water?

"Pfft~"

Li Yu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but he couldn't hold back his laughter.

Li Yu's inexplicable smile confused Meng Yi.

Meng Yi couldn't help asking himself: Did you say something wrong just now?no!
After that, Meng Yi looked at Li Si again, and Li Si was also puzzled.

Li Yu knew that in front of Xiangguo Li Si and Shangqing Mengyi, it was demeaning to smile, so he changed the topic and explained: "That's right, it's the water soaked in tea leaves, but I don't think tea water tastes good, so I went A horizontal line in the middle turns into tea, tea."

With such an explanation, Li Si understood somewhat.

If you want to come to the so-called tea, it is a kind of water made from leaves called tea.

After Li Yu finished speaking, he was afraid that Li Si and Li Si would turn into curious babies, so he stopped explaining too much, but stretched out his hand and said "please".

After entering the Hou Mansion, Li Yu came to the same place and the same tea making process again.

It's not that Li Yu deliberately showed off his tea skills, but that he wanted to use Li Si and Meng Yi as important ministers in the court to make the reputation of tea first.

To Li Si, tea was an unknown and novel product, so Li Si didn't show much desire for the color of the tea, the taste of the tea, etc. apart from being a little curious.

Thinking about it, I feel that this is just boiling water with a few leaves added.

However, Meng Yi had a different expression. He had seen Ying Zheng's appearance in the palace before, but now his desire for tea was greater than that of everyone present.

After drinking a cup of tea, Meng Yi showed a relieved expression, nodded and said: "No wonder Your Majesty asked me to ask Lord Hou for more tea."

Li Si heard this, but his heart became more and more curious, is it really so delicious?

So he directly picked up the teacup and drank it down, then smacked his lips, wondering: "Why does the truth feel that this water has no other feelings except a little bit of bitterness?"

Li Yu couldn't help shaking his head and said: "There is a particularity in drinking tea, drinking with cows and savoring carefully, it's not the same."

Is Li Yu mocking himself for drinking water like a cow?
"Then I don't know how to taste it carefully?"

Li Si, as a thick-skinned representative, obviously would not be ashamed by Li Yu's metaphor, but instead asked about tea drinking.

Li Yu was used to Li Si's behavior, so he said calmly, "Have a drink and enjoy yourself, understand?"

……

Li Si couldn't help turning dark when he heard the words, he was really curious and anxious just now, and he was bored.

Seeing that Li Yu poured himself another cup, Li Si's expression eased, he lifted the teacup lightly and slowly, and took a small sip.

When the tea enters the mouth, it is first astringent and then sweet, and a unique fragrance permeates the lungs.

Li Si couldn't help shivering, and drank it all in one gulp. He couldn't help sighing: "This tea has a Taoist charm. No wonder the Lord would change tea to tea."

Li Yu was shocked when he heard this.

I just invite you to have a sip of tea, and help to promote it by the way, but I didn't expect to be able to drink Dao rhyme from it?

Then Meng Yi asked again: "Isn't the name of Tushui a mouthful for Junhou?"

Li Si shook his head and said, "Otherwise, Master Meng will take apart the tea characters and have a look."

Meng Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said: "Fuck, people, wood?"

"This cursive character is the head, and the human and the wood are combined, which coincides with the essence of Taoism, and Taoism follows nature."

Meng Yi didn't care if he understood Li Si's words or not, but nodded his head to express his understanding.

On the contrary, Li Yu was taken aback by Li Si's words.

But if you think about it carefully, what Li Si said really seems to be the case, Li Yu couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.

This……

Could it be that Li Si had the idea of ​​abandoning the law and entering Taoism?

Thinking of this, Li Yu couldn't help but think of Zhang Fei scolding Lu Bu's family slaves.

Li Yu just took a look at Li Si's appearance, and there was something like that.

But when he thought that drinking tea had a purpose, Li Yu quickly shook his head, dispelled distracting thoughts and said, "This tea is scarce in production, and it is very troublesome to make. I have been busy for more than half a year, and now I just make it out." Less than two taels."

Less than two taels!
……

As soon as Li Yu said these words, Meng Yi's mouth was opened slightly so that he couldn't utter a word.

Meng Yi wanted to take the opportunity to speak and mention the things His Majesty explained...

However, Li Si didn't hold back, and said in surprise, "The production of this tea is so expensive?"

Seeing that his words had worked, Li Yu grinned, shook his head and said, "That's right, although tea leaves are not uncommon, you two adults must know that the tea you drink is made by the Marquis after going through many complicated processes. This is where the preciousness of the product lies."

Speaking of this, Li Si and Meng Yi couldn't help but nodded.

Xindao: Let me just say, how can this ordinary leaf have such a peculiar taste after soaking it in boiling water casually.

It turns out that it needs a very complicated treatment to finally make the water taste bad in the mouth.

I saw that Li Si and Li Si were convinced by my words, and they were convinced of the scarcity and value of tea.

Li Yu was secretly happy, so he sighed and said, "I wanted to give some tea leaves to the two adults to taste, but the tea leaves were just made in the morning, so I divided half of them and sent them to Xianyang Palace..."

As Li Yu spoke, he looked at Meng Yi, and his eyes were full of indebtedness.

Li Yu gave Ying Zheng half of the tea that was so precious that it could be called a rare treasure...

I was so stingy before, and only promised two hundred escorts for Ying Zheng...

Comparing the two, how can Meng Yi bear it?
Meng Yi only felt ashamed, and immediately felt sorry for Li Yu's reception of this tea, sorry for His Majesty's reliance, and his elder brother's care.

"Don't talk about it, Lord Hou. Yi will enter the palace soon, and will try his best to dispatch an army to go south with Lord Hou."

After getting Meng Yi's verbal guarantee, Li Yu's mouth curled up slightly, and he quickly evaded: "How embarrassing is this, Your Majesty still needs to guarantee the safety of his old man."

Didn't he know that Li Sidu almost entered the scene, but after seeing Li Yu's ghostly smile, he woke up again.

This acting...

The more Li Si thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he cursed in his heart: Te Niang's Immortal Lord, the truth almost set you on fire!
