As soon as Wang Zi'an left the small courtyard, several old men including Li Yuan couldn't stand it anymore.
hot!
When they came, they were dressed in three layers of clothing, each one wrapped thicker than the other. It was fine outside, but inside the heating pavilion, with floor heating, it was as warm as spring.
Who can withstand such a thick covering?
Although Li Yuan had just taken off his cloak, he came early and was a little hot now. At this time, he saw that everyone was sweating on their foreheads.
Cough slightly.
"Aren't you all too hot here? Why don't you take off your coat quickly -"
With that said, he stood up and took off his clothes first.
hot!
Zian is a bitch who knows how to enjoy things. It's not winter here, it's clearly spring.
Everyone was originally worried that it would be rude to take off their coats in front of the Supreme Emperor and Zhang Jieyu, but now that Li Yuan had said so, how could anyone remain calm?
He quickly stood up, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger next to him.
Good guy, it’s filled up instantly, just like opening a ready-made clothing store.
After hanging up the clothes, my whole body felt much lighter. Even when I sat down again to make dumplings, I felt a little lighter. Taking this opportunity, Li Yuan coughed lightly, glanced at Li Shimin who was clumsily making dumplings opposite him, and asked casually.
"What's going on with you guys today? Why are you so leisurely and come to Zian's place——"
Although my son would bring people to Zian when he had something to do, in the past, it would have been his own Fang Xuanling, Wei Zhengchang Sun Wuji, etc., the prime ministers of the dynasty, or Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao, etc. who stayed behind in Chang'an. The leading general brought a group of old men in their seventies and eighties today.
The situation is really weird.
He didn't believe it if there was no special purpose.
Knowing that he couldn't hide it from his father's eyes, Li Shimin stopped what he was doing and smiled flatteringly at Li Yuan.
"Back to the Supreme Emperor, they came here to find Zian to study as a disciple——"
To study under a teacher!
Li Yuan's eyes almost popped out.
He glanced around strangely.
The two oldest ones, Li Gang is eighty-two years old and Ouyang Xun is seventy-two years old.
The rest, except Shangguan Yi, Yu Shinan, Kong Yingda, Yu Zhining, Lu Deming, Zhang Ruosu, the older ones are in their early seventies, and the younger ones are in their sixties!
Even those of the younger generation, such as Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and Changsun Wuji, are almost fifty years old.
Remember, you are only in your early twenties after the Chinese New Year, right?
Good guys, you old men are coming to seek his apprenticeship?
Are you serious?
Besides, is this just a matter of age?
You people, who are either the pillars of the empire or the leading figures in the literary world, can you shamelessly come to study under Wang Zi'an?
"you--"
Li Yuan glanced at them with some uncertainty.
"Looking for Wang Zi'an's apprenticeship?"
"good!"
Li Gang nodded seriously and subconsciously reached out to stroke his beard. As soon as he touched his beard, he realized that his hands were all covered in white flour!
Well, adding some white flour to the white beard may not be too conspicuous.
Seeing Li Gang admitting it directly in front of Li Yuan, many people were slightly embarrassed.
To be honest, it was really stressful for them to seek apprenticeship from Wang Zi'an.
At their age and status, let alone a young person to study as a disciple, even if they find a highly respected senior to study as a disciple, they may not be able to lose face.
Why do you want to take this time today to visit?
I just want to express this meaning secretly and try not to make it public.
Who would have known that Li Gang would admit it directly in front of the Supreme Emperor!
Li Yuan:......
It's still true!
He really couldn't understand why these old guys who usually cherished their feathers so much suddenly changed their temper and were willing to bend down and learn from a young man like Wang Zi'an.
You know, this era is different from later generations.
The trend of studying under a teacher is not strong. At most, it is just to find a teacher for one's own juniors. It is true that very few people who have become successful and famous want to study under a teacher midway.
Without him, I feel like I can't afford to lose that person!
"What do you want to learn?"
Li Yuan was really curious.
Is it possible to learn the art of immortality from Zian?
He knew that many people secretly speculated that Wang Zi'an might be a disciple of an outsider, with a terrifying background of land gods and others.
Could it be that they got some exact information?
For a moment, Li Yuan couldn't help but his heart beat slightly.
"How to learn pinyin and spell it——"
This kind of thing is a good thing to pay attention to and leave a name in history. Li Shimin is worried about not finding a chance to show off in front of his father. Seeing him asking about it at this time, he quickly introduced Wang Zi'an's Chinese Pinyin in detail.
Li Yuanna was the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Although he messed up halfway and was tricked by his own son, his wisdom was still there. After hearing half of it, I understood.
No wonder these idiots are so old, yet they are willing to lower their heads and shamelessly approach Wang Zi'an as their apprentice. They want to leave a name in history!
Only by learning pinyin from Wang Zi'an can you join in the compilation of Chinese dictionaries.
Otherwise, how could you join in?
Compile a dictionary?
Isn't this much better than being a newspaper consultant?
Li Yuan suddenly felt that it was okay for him to have sex with me.
I, Li Yuan, am also a scholar.
They were chatting lively here, but they didn't know that Ma Zhou and Xue Rengui had already been shocked and stunned.
This group of great scholars of the time, an old man like Mount Taishan and Beidou among the scholars of the Tang Dynasty, are they here to study under their masters?
Want to be your "old" junior brother?
Ah, this——
The world is so crazy!
Li Yuan had something in mind, but the others were a little uncomfortable, so when Wang Zi'an came in with the cook and two large basins of freshly prepared dumpling fillings, the Nuan Pavilion seemed to be following self-study.
So quiet!
Wang Zi'an was a little confused. What's the situation? This is——
Of course, after the stuffing was put down, Li Yuan blasted him away.
If a chef of this level doesn't cook and just squats here making dumplings, isn't that a waste of talent?
Get lost, we need to do it ourselves——
Although this group of old men were all novices, they soon became happy after the initial unfamiliarity and awkwardness period.
Although the gentleman is far away from the kitchen, haven't you seen that the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor are making dumplings themselves?
It must be such an honor to accompany the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty to make dumplings.
If word spreads, a lot of people will be envious to death.
Besides, sometimes it actually feels good to make food for yourself!
Facts have proven once again that there is strength in numbers. Although many people have lived for a long time and are making food for themselves for the first time, and they are all clumsy, there are so many people.
If one person packs a dozen, it will be enough for him/herself!
Therefore, the chopping board next to it was soon filled with dumplings of different shapes and twists.
In less than half an hour, the task was successfully completed.
In fact, if Wang Zi'an hadn't stopped them, they probably could have kept it together for a while longer.
I just found the fun in it, okay?
But Wang Zi'an didn't want to.
What are you doing with so many bags?
It’s just right to pack these!
If you feed this skill to dogs, they might even be disgusted by it.
Who will eat the rest?
"Zian, this is the first time for many of you to come to your place. Why don't we arrange lunch in the greenhouse in the back garden today..."
Li Shimin stood up and washed his hands, and turned to Wang Zi'an.
"Yes, yes, I have long heard that the scenery in the back garden of the Marquis of Chang'an is unique in Chang'an. Not only are there many exotic flowers and plants everywhere, but there is also a glazed greenhouse, which is crystal clear and beautiful. Today is not allowed. miss……"
Li Gang, Lu Deming and others couldn't help but echoed.
When Wang Zi'an saw this, he burst into laughter.
"Since you are interested, please come to the back garden——"
With that said, Wang Zi'an ordered people to arrange the seats in the back garden, and at the same time stood up and led a group of people to the back garden.
At this time, everyone discovered that not only the small courtyard just now, but also the corridors were planted with rare flowers and rare plants outside.
And because of the warm floor, many of them have exposed their tender green leaves, which is particularly pleasing to the eye in this winter.
I saw a group of old men walking around and marveling at them again and again.
"If I'm not mistaken, the one planted next to it is probably Jiulong Gui, right?"
Lu Deming couldn't help but look at his mouth and asked, and saw Wang Zi'an nodding in response. I couldn't help but look envious and sigh.
"I think back then, I had a few plants in my house. When I got them, it took me a lot of effort. Unfortunately, I threw them away some time ago. I didn't expect you to have planted so many here..."
As he said this, he glanced at Wei Zheng with a look of resentment.
Ah, it's all this thief's fault!
When this was mentioned, everyone couldn't help but think of their once beautiful back garden and their beloved exotic flowers and plants. Old and new hatreds suddenly surged into their hearts, and they all turned to look at Wei Zheng with evil eyes.
Wei Zheng:......
Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?
"It's not just Jiulong osmanthus. I think the ones here seem to be golden osmanthus - I remember that there seemed to be a few in the Imperial Garden. If they were still there, they would probably be this big..."
There were quite a few of them, but Li Yuan hadn't noticed them yet. When they heard what they said, Li Yuan took a very careful look.
Good guy, not only Jiulonggui and Zhuangyuanhong are planted, there are even two rows of golden osmanthus planted at the entrance of the back garden!
This kind of osmanthus tree has dense flower buds. When it is in full bloom, dozens of small flowers gather at the same point. Viewed from a distance, they look like golden bouquets. They are eye-catching, very spectacular, and have a fragrant fragrance. In the north, it is A rare treasure, very rare.
Li Yuan's memory kill made everyone involuntarily perk up and follow their gazes, didn't it?
Two rows of golden laurel trees!
"Marquis Chang'an, what a big deal - I look at these as if they were just planted. How much did these cost -"
Looking at the exotic flowers and plants on both sides, Yu Shinan looked envious. He wished he could just dig up two of them and have them dragged back to his home.
Yu Shinan personally pursues the quality of life. He is really envious in his heart. He doesn't mean it when he talks, but many old gentlemen listen with intention.
Although the Marquis of Chang'an was unparalleled in talent and talent, his life was too extravagant.
We haven't even entered the back garden yet, but the exotic flowers and plants along the way are worth a fortune, not to mention that in order to protect these exotic flowers and plants, special floor heating is laid on both sides.
How much money is wasted!
Fortunately, it was Wang Zi'an. If Li Shimin had dared to do this, these old men would have probably attacked him in a group and sprayed him until he shut himself up.
However, even so, many people couldn't help but feel slightly unhappy when they looked at Wang Zi'an.
Wang Zi'an didn't notice the subtle changes in their eyes. He smiled sheepishly and explained honestly.
"It basically cost no money. Some of these were gifts from my father-in-law. Of course, most of them were picked up by me from outside—"
Wang Zi'an said and couldn't help but sigh.
"To be honest, our group of dignitaries in Chang'an City are too extravagant. They don't want such beautiful flowers and plants and just throw them on the street!"
Everyone:…
It’s so heartbreaking!
They did not dare to blame their Majesty, but the eyes they looked at Wei Zheng became even more unkind.
Wei Zheng:! ! ! ! ! !
No, I am a victim too!
He glanced at Li Shimin with resentful eyes.
Li Shimin looked at the sky and didn't want to speak.
He recognized it, not only those golden osmanthus, but also many other exotic flowers and plants that once belonged to his imperial garden.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Wang Zi'an thought that these old men were moved by his words, and he was also angry at this wasteful behavior.
So, in order to match everyone's mood, he put on an angry expression on his face.
"You say, how can there be such waste? Now our Tang Dynasty's treasury is empty and the people are struggling to make a living. They are still so wasteful. Is it shameful or hateful? It's really not a thing-"
Everyone:…
Suddenly I didn't know how to answer the call.
Who knows, if this piece of shit was grown at home, it might have been thrown away by others...
It’s so heartwarming!
At this moment, they heard the prince sigh leisurely.
"As the saying goes, wine and meat are stinky in the rich families, and bones are frozen to death on the road. They, the dignitaries and dignitaries, are well-dressed and well-fed every day. How can they understand the hard work of the common people——"
While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone!
These words made these well-educated scholars tremble in their hearts. Even Li Yuan and Li Shimin couldn't help but stop and look at Wang Zi'an with something unprecedented.
Unexpectedly, this brat, who has a free and easy temper and doesn't seem to care about anything, can have such a compassionate feeling.
This sentence cannot be said to be amazing, but it vividly depicts the indulgence of the rich and the hunger of the poor. The contrast between the two is shocking.
What a good poem, what a poem——
Several old men couldn't help but look moved and nodded repeatedly, but just after being excited for a while, they came to their senses again.
No, this guy seems to have scolded himself too!
But, we were wronged, and we didn’t want to waste it——
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look at Wei Zheng in unison.
Ah, you thief Wei Zheng, it’s all your fault!
Wei Zheng:......
Suddenly, he wanted to pounce on this brat Wang Zi'an and fight to the death.
You thief, you tricked me——
Seeing Wei Zheng's embarrassment as he was almost buried under the looks of these old men, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but feel happy.
I secretly composed a BGM for him in my mind——
"I shouldn't be here, I should be under the car..."
Everyone's expressions were wonderful.
Wang Zi'an couldn't help but feel happy. Lao Li, a thief, brought so many people to find him, and it was bound to be bad. If he didn't tease you and cheer him up, he would feel at a loss.
"Actually, I just don't want people to waste -"
