Sun Simiao followed Du Che to the Cangjian Hall, and Li Yuanying followed Li Jing to build a sand table. The initial work of the sand table is to push mountains and create valleys based on the map, and stack rocks as a foundation to ensure that there will be no collapse or landslide when using a small tube truck to introduce water.

Feng Heyuan returned to quiet mode again...

... Standing on the railing by the lake, Skylark fell into deep thought: Which is more useful, spells, illusions or calculations?

"Mr. Medicine Master, why do you think my brother suddenly let the two of them enter the house early?" Li Yuanying pushed the mountain, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt. I have been too busy to take the exam, but now that the battery has its features and my mind is not so tense, I finally realized it.

No wonder those elders in later generations like to look for beauties in flower vases. After all, there are too few strong female beauties, and they are easy to fight for power. They can't fight for the power of the palace. As long as someone is still alive, as for someone's death... someone is now the prince, and should be the queen. If the naughty kid can't hold it, it's because he has no ability.

"My lord, you should take a look at the people around you?" Li Jing put down the rake and poured a cup of tea to drink. The fried tea was delicious, but it was a bit refreshing. It would be easy to fall asleep after drinking it at night. "Not to mention your majesty, I and Tang Hu are also a little worried. He has long wanted his Xiao Qiniang to enter the house, but the princess has not entered the house. He does not want to be misunderstood that he wants to disturb the backyard."

Mr. Yuan and Mr. Sun are now looking at the prince with more and more enthusiasm, as well as Du Che and Xiao Ruoyuan. The prince is more interested in them than in Prince Jin... If he is accidentally deceived by them, he will seek help. , let’s not talk about others, Princess Jinyang will definitely burst into tears, the Great Wall will definitely expand a lot, and Qujiang Pool will definitely expand a lot.

"The people around me?" Li Yuanying counted... There are quite a few people from the Taoist sect, but they were invited by Mr. Yuan. Why couldn't he invite people from the Buddhist sect? He laughed dumbly and said, "You are overthinking, Mr. Medicine Master, I am dead... People who have fallen into the lotus pond, if they have seen through this world, they would have seen through it long ago, do they still have to wait until now?"

There are also many people in later generations who have experienced life and death and have seen through the world of mortals. There are also some people who are tired of life in big cities after traveling to places such as Cangshan, Erhai or Daocheng. There are also many people who go to those places to open B&Bs or directly live in seclusion.

Of course, there are also many people who regret and return to big cities.

"But you reminded me that if my brother doesn't agree to what I want to do in the future, I will go to the mountains to seek enlightenment and talk to him."

Li Jing looked at Li Yuanying blankly, you...are you sure you want to do this? It is true that His Majesty dotes on you, but he is not stupid!

"Don't worry, Jinyang Heshan will help me~" Li Yuanying blinked his left eye at Li Jing and smiled lazily. Brother, not only is he not stupid, he is also very smart. But smart people have a problem, they like to predict. They always think that they can predict other people's predictions. As long as they can predict their predictions and let their predictions follow your predictions, they will have a sense of accomplishment. It is commonly known as taking one step and seeing three steps. In short, two words: matryoshka doll.

It is a matryoshka doll game between smart people. It depends on who can break out of the cycle, find the right seven inches, and knock down the opponent with one move. When I was fishing, I had nothing to do, so I studied the matryoshka masters in history.

Who could have thought of a time when it would be useful?

Li Jing finished his tea, picked up the rake and continued working, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I would like to remind you that His Majesty knows more than just predictions."

No matter how smart Prince Teng is, he is only eleven years old, and he has been raised in the palace. His experience is not just a little bit, but thousands of points. His wild ideas would be just ideas if it weren't for Mr. Yuan and his group. A certain person and Tang Fox really couldn't help in this regard.

Those military tactics and strategies were useless for the first time. During the period when they were most suspected, they had never been so frustrated.

"Mr. Medicine Master, I know more than one trick." Li Yuanying said in a low voice as well. "You will understand when you get to Jinzhou!"

If the roads are accessible and goods can flow, there needs to be enough trading time. It is unrealistic to lift the curfew immediately, but the time can be advanced from noon to midnight. When there are more transactions, there will be more swindlers, cheaters, gentlemen, and even robbers, and more arrests and patrols will be needed.

Guards can be served by retired veterans, and if they can receive a salary, their relatives or descendants will no longer resist joining the army, let alone enlisting in the army at fifteen and returning at eighty. I met a fellow villager: Who is there at home? From a distance, it is Jun's house, with numerous pine and cypress graves. The rabbit enters from the dog's sinus, and the pheasant flies from the beam.

Li Jing: "..."

No wonder His Majesty arranged for Tang Hu to go there. He knew that King Teng would not be honest as the governor. So...why did he agree to be the chief historian of King Teng? There were obviously several princes who were more suitable to be governors of Jinzhou. At that time, only the fireworks had been modified, and the white ball had not yet been delivered to Prince Teng, let alone Gongsun Bai coming to Chang'an.

"Your Majesty, I've got the black tea." Bai Lu walked in with a round box in both hands and said respectfully.

Li Yuanying took the handkerchief and cleaned his hands. He looked at the tea leaves in the round box. The shape was tightly knotted and beautiful, and the color was dark and moist. He chuckled and said, "Bai Lu, you did a good job, quite well."

According to the land records of Jingzhou, tea is produced in seven counties of Wuling.

The Tea Book even records: There were two people hugging each other in the Bashan Gorge.

Sitting at the tea eucalyptus, Li Yuanying chose a glazed teapot. There are no purple clay teapots yet. It had to wait until the Ming Dynasty before anyone would use purple clay to make a teapot. The reason is very simple. The point of making tea is not to hold the teapot. Take the tea, warm the pot, add the tea, wash the tea and then brew it, pour it into the glass fair cup, and the aroma of tea fills the room instantly.

"Mr. Medicine Master, how do you feel?"

"The aroma is very different from that of green tea, with a hint of the aroma of roses under the sun." Li Jing said slowly with his nose slightly twitching. Looking at the tea soup, the soup is red and transparent. "Is this Wuling black tea?"

Li Yuanying nodded slightly, started to divide the tea, gave a cup to Bai Lu, and said with a smile: "You should taste the first cup. It will be recorded in the tea book in the future. In the twelfth year of Zhenguan, palace man Bai Lu made fried tea, which became popular all over the world. "

Bai Lu carefully took the tea cup and said even more cautiously: "Your Majesty, I don't dare."

"From today on, you are no longer the maid of Prince Teng's Mansion, but the right minister of the Wood Office of Yunhe Mansion, with a green robe and a silver belt." Li Yuanying pointed at the document that Chuntao had just taken out, and said with a gentle smile.

My brother’s heart is broader than the sea. I thought I would have to wait for him to come back and discuss it in the political hall before finalizing the decision. Unexpectedly, the appointment documents came directly.

Bai Lu held the tea cup tightly, fearing that it would fall if she couldn't hold it firmly... She said in a daze: "Shu Cheng is from the eighth rank, wearing a dark green robe and a jade belt."

"The Chief of the Yunhe Mansion and the Chief of the Office are two levels higher than other government offices." Li Yuanying understood why only Bailu could make good tea, while others would just drop the tea cup and thank him excitedly and incoherently. "Chuntao, accompany Bai Youcheng to the Shaofu to make official uniforms."

"Wei Wei." Chuntao Yingying bowed, put away the documents, and looked at Bai Lu.

Bai Lu pursed her lips, hesitated for two breaths, first smelled the aroma, then tasted the tea, and put it back on the teacup. Yingying bowed and said softly: "The mouth is full of fragrance and the aftertaste is sweet. Thank you, Your Majesty, for the tea."

After saying that, he took three steps back, turned around and left the hall.

Chuntao suppressed her laughter and followed Bai Lu's footsteps... The prince's expression at this moment looked very much like... a silly melon.

"My lord, what do you think?" Li Jing asked, holding back a smile. Bailu, the future is limitless.

Li Yuanying picked up the tea cup and smelled the aroma. The aroma was fresh and pure. Tasting the tea, the taste was fresh and sweet. He put down the tea cup, poured another cup, and said with a casual smile: "I have no idea."

I originally thought that the most calm person around me was Chuntao, but I didn't expect that Bai Lu was more calm. Not only was she calm, but she was also indifferent to humiliation.

Wuling has been a good place since ancient times. The most famous place is Taiyuan in Jin Dynasty. The people of Wuling are fishing. Walking by the stream, I forget how far the road is. Suddenly I came across a peach blossom forest, hundreds of steps across the bank. There were no trees in the middle, the grass was delicious, and the fallen flowers were colorful. The fisherman is very different, he keeps going forward, hoping to exhaust the forest... Later generations have different interpretations of the Peach Blossom Spring, and many use the expression of Hades.

In comparison, a certain person prefers the phoenix holding the stirrup in its mouth and turning the gold in a dazzling way, making people feel cold and light when drunk. But the clear light can illuminate people and live up to the dawn of spring. The name of the poem is Wulingchun, written by Mao Pang, who came from a family of Confucian scholars of the Wenzong family in the world. It goes better with the mellow and fresh Wuling black tea.

Li Jing raised his eyebrows slightly, continued to sip tea, and revealed the identity of You Cheng to Bai. The prince had discussed it with us, but no one thought that his majesty would agree. From a real-duty official of the sixth rank, not a literary official or a foreign official, agreeing is tantamount to telling the world that if a woman has enough contribution, she can also enter the court as an official.

Princess Pingyang Zhao is a special case, and not many people will imitate her, because it is difficult to meet the same conditions... He suddenly raised his head, looked at Li Yuanying, and said: "My lord, you are trying to set your sights on a woman from an aristocratic family!"

"No." Li Yuanying drank the tea in the teacup, turned the teacup, and said with a casual smile. "Mr. Medicine Master, you are overthinking. You should know the profits of tea better than I do. Bai Lu's contribution is worthy of this position."

It's not that easy for a woman to become an official. Besides, I'm not an egalitarian. Someone who just doesn't want to leave danger around and is too calm can make people scared, even if they haven't done anything. Especially this person, who behaves like he has no desires or desires... Mr. Yuan and Mr. Sun still go crazy sometimes, let alone a little girl?

Li Jing put down the teacup, stood up and walked outside, looking at the lotus leaves in the lake. Some lotus flowers were already half-opened, with pale pink petals... Wait, Mangzhong went to Princess Jinyang, and Mangzhong was guarding Qu Sanniang. , Bailu will go to Furong... In Yunhe Mansion by Qujiang Pond, only Xiaoxue is in Tangliyuan. Are they people sent by His Majesty to monitor King Teng?

This is not in line with common sense. If His Majesty wants to monitor Prince Teng, just arrange an ordinary maid... He looked at Li Yuanying, who had just walked over, lowered his voice and asked in an inaudible voice: "My lord, do you suspect that they are not the original people? "

"Mr. Medicine Master, if their faces have moved, don't you think Mr. Sun can't tell?" Li Yuanying did not expect that Li Jing would ask this, so he explained softly. "After they came back from Zhaoling, they were a little different from before. Maybe it was because they had too little communication with people during the guarding of the tomb."

Li Jing: "..."
