History has many facets, and any small field, if it can be explored in depth from small to large, can bring out a magnificent history of evolution.

The same goes for diet. The people regard food as the sky, and the evolution of food customs is not much better than the joys and sorrows of the emperors and generals.

Shen Zhezi was more impressed by the regional fragmentation shown by the food customs, that is, at the beginning of the southern crossing, Wang Dao, the representative of the northern clan, invited Jiangdong Lu to play, and Lu played in Wang Dao's mansion to eat cheese and cause illness, and then sent a note to Wang Dao: Although the servants are Wu people, they are ghosts.

Such an anecdote is just a joke about food and drink in future generations, but under the historical background of Nandu, it reflects the estrangement and contradiction between the north and the south, and it is incompatible in all aspects. In such a context, how can the north and the south reach a close relationship with each other, work together, and kill Hu in the Northern Expedition?

Shen Zhezi also knew very well that the most basic premise of being able to become the leader of the Northern Expedition recognized by both the north and the south was not how much he had done, but that he was recognized by Su Zu with his southerner background and became the son-in-law of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It has been recognized by the upper class of the northern clan, and it has a deep public opinion foundation in Jiangdong.

Even in the face of all kinds of difficulties back then, he did almost everything to make himself a symbol of the true convergence of the north and the south, which was one of Shen Zhezi's biggest advantages.

Speaking of diet, rice and soup and fish, this is the basic dietary structure of the southerners summarized by Sima Qian in the "Historical Records", even after thousands of years. The fertile land of China is vast and rich, and each place has its own different eating habits, even in the era of real material abundance in later generations, various eating habits are still deep-rooted and difficult to change.

However, tea can get rid of geographical restrictions and become one of the few truly national drinks. To a certain extent, the diffusion and development of tea can be said to represent the integration process between different regions of the land of China.

The tea man, the Jiamu of the south, was born in Bashu, Qin Deshu, and the world knew it. "Erya" and "Guangya" each record their names, Sima Xiangru Fu and sing, Qin and Han Dynasty, tea from Bashu into Hanzhong, and then into Guanzhong, down the river, flowing in Jingxiang.

Every time Sun Hao, the lord of Wu, feasted on the ministers, Wei Yao couldn't drink, so he replaced the wine with tea. The Chinese and Korean Jiang Tong sarcastically Huai Prince Sima Shu sold groceries in the West Garden, losing the national body, and there was tea among the goods. Therefore, Sikong Liu Kun, the body is depressed, often admires real tea, and takes its medicinal use.

As a drink, tea is really popular in the north and south, starting from the Tang Dynasty, the tea ceremony is popular, and the princes and courtiers are all drinkers. By the time of the Song Dynasty, people were indispensable every day, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar tea, and the custom of drinking tea had covered the market.

Shen Zhezi, as the current ruler of the southern country, has been trying to eliminate the gap between the people of the north and the south, the east and the west, and even he himself is trying to get closer to this, and he will naturally not miss tea, a drink with the potential of national promotion.

Externally, he hopes to make tea a strategic commodity. Internally, it is hoped that the custom of drinking tea can be promoted to the north and south, and it will rise to the cultural level and become an indispensable and important element in Zhuxia culture.

People or raw Bashu, Lingnan, Guanlong, Youyan, the sound can not be connected, the interest can not be similar, only the taste of tea, can not be abandoned. Of course, if tea alone cannot unite the people of the north and the south, but it can provide a link and opportunity, which is completely an attempt to benefit without expense.

After several years of unremitting efforts to promote, the style of drinking tea has become a common practice between Jiangdong and Heluo, and has formed a certain etiquette and culture. And now it is promoted to Hebei, which is not only the spread of food customs, but also a cultural output.

When Shen Zhezi said that he wanted to treat the guests with tea and take action in person, the Hebei villagers present were a little dazed for a while, but Gu Chang was already overjoyed, and turned to everyone and introduced: "Heluo Shang tea, there are many famous tea servants. The general's tea art is exquisite, and it is a national hand for a while. The name has been heard for a long time, and I regret that I can't see it, but I don't expect that this time I can benefit the sages of the countryside and win the mystical skills. ”

When everyone in the banquet heard this, although they were still at a loss, they couldn't help but be curious for a while when they saw Gu Chang so excited. Some of them have also heard of the name of the tea, but they don't have an in-depth understanding, but they don't know what is so charming about this southern drink, which makes General Shen diligent, and this new Gu envoy is even more famous.

Without waiting for everyone to ask, Gu Chang had already gotten up and said: "Most of the villagers present are ignorant of this art, so please be the second servant ......."

Shen Zhezi nodded after hearing this, and motioned for Gu Chang to sit in his seat, and after Gu Chang entered the seat, he explained to everyone a little: "If there is no game, there is no tea, the tea game has its own thousand forms, the host and guest of the game are different, the bureau is different, please move into the game......"

As a concept, the tea bureau is more borrowed from the form of Qing talk that prevailed in Jiangdong in the old years, as the chief waiter of the tea bureau is naturally the core of the bureau, usually served by the host, and the guests are divided into the main guest, the guest and the like, and the work bureau and the fighting game. Among them, the battle has a very distinct competitive color, the host and guest put forward the concept of tea taste, and sing it with poetry, while the host appreciates the meaning and uses different teas to reflect it.

Those present in Hebei Township have seen the prevailing tea art in Heluo, because even if they set up a bureau, it can only be a relatively simple form of taste, without the restrictions of those flowers, and they can taste it with their mouths.

Of course, even if it is a real game, the guests must dedicate their skills to repay the host after tasting, or poetry or fu or song or dance, and even sword dance and horse fighting, as long as they can be praised, they are worthy of the host's courtesy.

Hebei villagers with the idea of broadening their horizons, under Gu Chang's arrangement, they moved into the game, the distribution of seats is staggered, it is a relatively common flower array, the guests are not high or low, everyone can see the position of the general in their seats, and it is also an all-round display of the skills of the tea waiter, although the situation is simple, but not everyone has the courage to be tested by this.

After that, all kinds of tea-making utensils were sent one by one, and the styles and uses of the utensils were different, and the materials were mainly bamboo and porcelain. The so-called tea is cheap, the utensils are not still precious, the bamboo is simple, the porcelain is brittle, the simplicity is elegant, the brittle quality needs to be cautious, the tea art is the first to rebuild the mind, if the bamboo utensils used are rough and unbearable, and the porcelain jingles in the process of serving tea, it is naturally the Yixiao Fang family.

The general washed his hands and cleaned his face, and returned to the banquet, before he could make any moves, just seeing the dazzling array of utensils on the tea table, everyone present was already dizzying, even if there was anything in his heart that he didn't think so, it was all gone at the moment, and even gave birth to a sense of crampedness that he was vulgar and ashamed.

After Shen Zhezi entered the table, he noticed the change in the atmosphere and couldn't help but smile in his heart. Although the so-called concept of tea ceremony was proposed by him, it was the elegant people from Koto to Holo who really enriched it.

Snatching people with utensils, just these utensils are displayed, giving people a feeling of unconsciousness. Just like the Zhou etiquette, it is purely the aristocracy who is so idle that it hurts to figure out and torture people, the so-called etiquette is not inferior to the people, who really have serious things to do, who has the spirit to ponder those extremely cumbersome etiquette, but it does not prevent the feeling that this matter is quite high-style.

"Wash."

After entering the seat, Shen Zhezi glanced sideways at Gu Chang on the left seat, Gu Chang looked solemn, raised his hand and picked up a porcelain urn, just a gesture of pouring water, but because of his solemn demeanor, the audience could not help but focus on the water flow.

Against the backdrop of the emerald background of the washing pool, Gu Chang's wrist was forced, and the water in the urn fell down by inertia, and the general used a bamboo ruler to provoke the utensils to be washed and soaked under the water curtain.

This link of the school is a wrist force, and the calligraphy pen power is dark, thick ink and shallow shade, there seems to be nothing, you can appreciate the color change brought about by the gradual moistening of the water color of the utensils, from shallow that is deep, the more distinct the level change, the more intelligent. Langya Wang Xizhi is the holy hand of the washing vessel, it is said that just looking at its washing vessel, there are more than a dozen kinds of changes such as Zhongshan Weihui, Huiji Xinrun, lingering plum rain, Qiantang tide surge, etc.

Gu Chang was worried that his skills were not perfect, and he could not cooperate with the general's techniques to show many changes, and he had to be distracted to tell everyone about the infiltration level of the utensils, and when the sprinkler was completed, half an hour had passed.

And under Gu Chang's narration, everyone also experienced the changes in the quarrying river fog, Longmen Baicui and so on, especially at the end, the general and his cooperation became more and more skillful, showing a three-breath Lantian jade pulp, which made Gu Chang's face flushed with excitement, and there was a faint loss in his heart. Although these Hebei villagers present also watched it seriously, it was obvious that they could not fully appreciate the subtleties of this subtlety.

However, although these Yedi villagers present lived up to Gu Chang's extraordinary performance, the changes told by his mouth fell on everyone's ears, combined with the changes infiltrated by the artifacts just now, echoing each other, they even had a trace of fascination and expectation for the Jiangdong Quarry Rock and Luoyang Longmen that had never been footed, and they were more curious about whether Lantian Meiyu was really as green and pulpy, lively and lovely as she saw just now?

Holding the porcelain urn in his hand for so long, Gu Chang's arm was also sour, and the next shower was personally handled by the general. The focus of this link is not to watch, but to listen, the bamboo bucket is poured, the water droplets fall on the utensils, the thin-walled washing pool has the sound effect of sound resonance, different utensils material shape, the sound is different, only those who enter the silence can get its fun.

Luoyang has "Midnight Autumn Song", which is the musician who picks the old sound of the general's shower, and plays it with Gong Hou, and Sun Sui of Xinshi Pavilion is endowed with it, and the day the song is completed, it is popular in Heluo, the fisherman shakes the oar, and the song must be sung when he returns late. And Gu Chang had no time to tell everyone about the sound at this time, so he just listened quietly, unconsciously moved by emotion, and forgot about it leisurely.
