The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

Li Shimin's carriage also entered the backyard smoothly. Not long after, Fang Xuanling also came in.

The waiters hurriedly helped to lead the horses to the stables and feed them with the best horse grass.

Li Shimin got off the carriage.

"Has the emperor arrived?"

Li Shimin saw the carriage parked on the side.

"He just came, and he should be in the private room upstairs now." The waiter said.

"Then how are our rooms arranged?" Li Shimin asked again.

"It's next door." The waiter said: "The master said that His Majesty and several ministers should also chat while watching and talking about some court affairs, so it is not appropriate to arrange them together. Just a little closer is enough."

"Today's teahouse auction is open to the public, only the first and second floors. As for the third floor, the master has already said hello, and the whole floor is empty to welcome the emperor and His Majesty."

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.

Li Fu's arrangement was appropriate.

After all, he would still be somewhat restrained if the emperor was there when he was chatting with Changsun Wuji.

Only when he was not in the same room with the emperor and others, talking and so on, could he be more relaxed.

Especially, today they were not just here to watch the fun.

"Take us upstairs." Li Shimin said.

"Yes." The waiter bowed and replied: "Please come here, nobles."

The waiter quickly took Li Shimin and others to the third floor and arranged them in the room.

Because the teahouse was about to open, there were already people waiting outside.

After Li Shimin and others settled in the room, the time was up.

The shopkeeper came down from the third floor and called the waiters in the shop to open the door and welcome the guests.

From this moment on, they could not go to the third floor.

To go to the third floor, you have to pass by the stairs on the second floor. Those who go to the second floor are all people from the noble families, like human spirits.

The teahouse has announced that the third floor is not open to the public. If the waiters still go to the third floor, then these people will definitely guess that there are people on the third floor.

Moreover, the people on the third floor are either the boss or people of higher status than them.

Who is the boss?

How can such news about Chang'an City be kept secret?

The boss is King Jingyang.

King Jingyang is present, so is the emperor also there?

So everything on the third floor was prepared in advance. From the shopkeeper to the waiters, no one will go to the third floor until the auction is over.

As soon as the teahouse opens, people outside will come in, holding invitations in their hands.

Those without invitations stay outside the door, holding the mentality of watching the fun, and stay here.

After the waiters at the door checked the invitations one by one, they let the people in, and then other waiters led them to their seats.

The hall on the first floor is already full of more than half of the people.

Then, carriages came to the door one after another.

All the people who got off the carriages were dressed in gorgeous clothes and accompanied by servants. The people who got off led the way, followed by their own servants who bowed and nodded.

When they arrived at the door, the servant beside them took out the invitation and handed it to the waiter.

After the waiter read the invitation, he let the people in.

Each guest in the private room on the second floor can bring up to four servants to enter the door. They can go to the room with the host or wait outside the door for the host.

Most of those who came later were not sitting in the hall on the first floor, but going up to the second floor, into the private room, or sitting in the corridor on the second floor, looking down on the first floor.

At this time, in the hall on the first floor of the teahouse, people sitting at the same table began to chat with each other. The topic of the chat was nothing more than the highlight of the day, the ten boxes of special tea.

"Just now I saw people from the Lu family going to the second floor."

"I also saw people from the Wang family."

"Not only that, all the well-known and powerful families in Chang'an City have come. They are all on the second floor now, no matter what their status is."

Some people looked up at the second floor while talking.

In the corridor on the second floor, there were two servants standing at the door of each private room.

"This is a frightening spectacle. Even when His Majesty goes to court, it may not be so complete."

"Be careful what you say."

"Do you think His Majesty will come to such a grand event in Chang'an?"

"What are you thinking? How could His Majesty come? There is no special tea outside, but how could there be no special tea in the palace? Didn't you hear the rumor a few days ago that these ten boxes of special tea can be auctioned in this teahouse, but it must be approved by His Majesty. If His Majesty doesn't agree, we won't be able to see it."

"That means this special tea is the tribute tea of ​​the palace, and ordinary people are not qualified to drink it."

"That's not the case. Not to mention ordinary people, even officials in the court don't have it., those aristocratic families can't get it."

"It's really valuable."

"Yes, we can't compete for it today, so we can just watch the fun, it's worth it. "

Some people bought invitations to come in just to see how lively it was.

The guys were all alert and ready to go at any time.

When there were more people, they became busy.

This table wanted tea, and that table wanted cakes.

Although the invitations were sent to attend the auction for free.

But it was such an auction, and people were already here, so could they just sit there and do nothing?

They must drink tea.

After an auction, the income from tea and cakes might be several times more than usual.

The guys started to get busy.

The spacious and bright hall on the first floor began to be filled with a faint scent of tea.

The kitchen was busy boiling water and preparing cakes. After the exquisite cakes were made, they were placed on the shelf on the side, waiting for the guys in front to come and take them.

The teahouse was crowded but noisy, and there was order in the bustle.

All those who came here were wealthy and had People of certain status, when they sit together, will not raise their voices and make noises like ordinary people.

Even if they talk, they talk in a low voice and maintain an elegant demeanor.

In general, the atmosphere in the entire teahouse is hot, but it will not make people feel annoyed or uncomfortable.

The entire hall on the first floor is very large, and one-third of the position is built with an auction table.

In other places facing the auction table, tea tables are placed for guests to sit. The tea tables are not placed densely, which is the biggest reason for the order in the noise and comfortable atmosphere.

The teahouse does not want to accommodate as many people as possible, but to give the small number of people who can come the best experience.

This is not a one-time deal. Maybe this kind of activity will be held again in the future, so it can't leave a bad impression on people.

Everything is based on the highest quality of service.

People are still coming in one after another outside. The teahouse is very large, and there are not a few invited people.
