If you don't go to the Jin Temple, you will go to Taiyuan in vain.

Forty miles west of Taiyuan City, there is a hanging urn mountain. The mountain is not high, but the mountain range stretches, like outstretched arms, embracing the towering ancient trees, palaces and pavilions of the Jin Ancestral Hall, and the deep pool of spring water in your arms. These arms blocked the howling north wind, so that there was snow in the Jin Temple without biting cold. Although it is in the cold winter of Sanjiu, the spring water is still tinkling, and it flows endlessly...... But I saw a deep pool here, and a small ditch there. There is a river under the bridge, a well in the pavilion, and a stream by the roadside. Trickle veins and break through thick layers of snow; Like threads, it seems to flow endlessly.

These waters all come from the Nanlao Spring, which comes from the Hanging Urn Mountain, which is also the source of Jin Shui. The water gushes out from the stone rock that is a zhang deep, it is really a bit like the appearance of gushing out of the urn, the spring water bubbles non-stop, clarifies and green, flows down like a jade splashing cui, not only fills the clear spring for the rivers, wells, ditches and canals of the Jin Temple everywhere, but also irrigates the grain fields of thousands of hectares, nourishes the land of the three Jin Dynasty.

Of course, the best spring water always comes from the closest place to the spring. Walk a few steps forward from Nanlao Spring, there is a water pool named "not tied to the boat, the pond is surrounded by white marble low fence to form the appearance of a boat, so it is named. The pond water is warm in winter and cool in summer, and in a cold day like now, the water vapor is steaming and dense, like clouds and mist. There is duckweed on the surface of the water, there are aquatic plants at the bottom of the pool, all are evergreen in winter and summer, the long aquatic plants fluctuate with the flowing water, like the wind blowing wheat waves, rippling and undulating, sitting in the boat and tasting tea and enjoying the snow, it is really like entering the fairyland of Yaochi by mistake

Such a fairy-like blessing is naturally not something that ordinary people can enjoy. However, big figures like the political envoy of Shanxi and the prefect of Taiyuan want to close the door of the Jin Ancestral Hall and enjoy the snow and tea, which is a matter of one sentence......

When eating tea, he thought that the old spring water that was transported to Taiyuan could not brew the true taste of Miyunlong. The prefect of He invited the lord of the clan to come to the Jin Ancestral Hall and try it with the spring water that had just come up from the spring.

Although the Jin Temple is more than forty miles away from the provincial capital, and it is a cold moon in the middle of winter, but such an elegant matter for scholars, the two adults are naturally not troublesome, if it were not for the funeral of the old princess, they would have come over a long time ago. No, it's easy to get through the heat and mourning, and the He Governor couldn't wait to invite the lord of the clan to the Jin Ancestral Hall......

At this moment, the two of them are sitting in an untied boat carved from white marble, and the four warm cages burning white silk charcoal in the four corners of the boat drive away the chill of winter, so that the two adults do not have to wear heavy clothes, but only need to wear a light fur and slow belt. The veils of the four walls hang lightly, and there are precious calligraphy and paintings. On the pineapple wood low-legged tea table is a jīng chic refreshment, and a furnace of precious sandalwood incense is burned. There are also kabuki playing the pipa slowly in the corner, playing melodious music, showing the grace of celebrities and gentlemen, which is really a pleasure that the gods do not change.

It can be seen that for today's tea tasting meeting, He Zhifu has hollowed out his thoughts, but what amazes Zhang Fantai the most is that he ordered skillful craftsmen to temporarily set up a set of water intake devices, and a piece of bamboo tube will draw the clear spring water from the old spring. After several twists and turns, the spring water was led to the untied boat, and slowly poured into a wide bamboo bamboo with a length of more than a zhang and a thick silver-white fine sand. The sand filtered crystal water droplets are then dripped into a white blue and white porcelain pot that is clean and shiny.

This ingenious design allows the water from the spring to come to the boat without human hands, and it is filtered by a sand, which is even clearer and cleaner than the spring water in the spring. Seeing that he was happy to hunt, Zhang Chūn ordered someone to scoop a spring water from a porcelain basin, and did not make tea or heat it, so he drank it directly, and suddenly felt extremely sweet and clear, refreshing to the heart. I couldn't help but nod my head again and again and exclaimed: "This kind of good water is worthy of my Miyun Dragon." ”

When there was enough water in the porcelain basin, the delicate maid took it to boil it. The charcoal used to boil the water is the pine charcoal of Shanghao, because the pine charcoal is warm and slow, and the spring water can be boiled thoroughly.

Waiting for the water to boil, Zhang Chūn's eyes swept over the garden, and while admiring the snow scene, the comfortable He Governor said: "It's really a good place with good mountains and waters, but I will come often in the future." ”

"That couldn't be better. chūn has a hundred flowers in autumn and the moon in autumn, a cool breeze in summer and snow in winter, and the good scenery in the Sanjin Ancestral Hall, which is different at four times of the year. He Zhifu said with a smile: "Fantai usually doesn't pay attention to rest, so you should go out for a walk more and relax your mood." ”

"Because of the words of the monks in the bamboo courtyard, the floating life is half idle." Zhang Fantai said slowly: "In the past while, I really have to learn from Su Dongpo. As he spoke, his expression was a little stagnant: "It's just for a while...... I wonder when the road will pass? ”

"Actually, it's fast." He Zhifu said with a smile: "The army of the King of Jin has surrounded Wutai County, and it is like a plough to search closely, so Liu Zijin and Wang Xian are already unable to fly, and it is only a matter of time before they are caught."

"I hope so." Zhang Fantai nodded, and said with some embarrassment: "The prince is really generous, and the old man is frightened, could it be that I am indeed old?" ”

"The clan is not old at all." He Zhifu smiled: "You are old and stable, so you are not used to the methods of the prince." However, this kind of once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, killing chickens should be used to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"Yes." Zhang Fantai smiled and said, "I never thought that our Lord Qincha actually ran to see Liu Zijin." Thanks to the news from King Jin, otherwise we would still be in the dark. ”

"Who would have thought that such a ridiculous thing could be done?" He Zhifu still said incredible: "It's just a private interview to learn drama and literature, and he even pretended to be sick and deceived us so badly" said and said: "There are not a hundred or eighty liars that Xia Guan has seen, and the sum is not as high as this guy's deception."

"Or we're too careless." Zhang Chūn sighed and said, "Now it seems that that kid has been suspicious of us for a long time, but he is extremely immature and timid. Said with a wry smile and said: "He can save the grandson from Jiulongkou, and play the two great heroes of Mongolia around, how can such a person be involved with cowardice and immaturity?" ”

"Fortunately, this kid died in Wutai County." He Zhifu rejoiced: "Otherwise, it will be a big trouble."

"What I'm worried about now is," Zhang Fantai waved his hand, retreated left and right, and said softly: "Do you say that he is suspicious of us, or is the prince suspicious of us?" ”

"It should be the crown prince," the corners of Governor He's mouth twitched a few times and said: "Now we all know that Wang Xian is the prince's knife, and who to cut is the one who holds the knife has the final say." ”

"Right." Zhang Chūn nodded, and asked again: "Then do you say that the crown prince or the emperor is suspicious?" ”

"It should be the crown prince," the corners of Governor He's mouth twitched even more: "If the emperor is suspicious, it is estimated that he will directly send Tiqi to escort us to Beijing for trial." ”

"Yes, my domain, your mansion, is an official in Shanxi, and it's not a fart in the court, if the emperor suspects us, he won't talk nonsense at all." Zhang Chūn smiled self-deprecatingly: "The reason why I can still be in the mood to drink tea is that I feel that there are nobles in the court, and the sky can't fall."

"Then as long as there is nothing wrong with the domain, the sky of the lower officials will not collapse." He Zhifu's expression was relieved, and he said with a smile: "Don't scare your subordinates, what you just said is that the heart and liver of the lower officials are about to pop out."

"Ha Luha, you're too careless." Zhang Chūn laughed loudly: "For the way of officials, when Mount Tai collapses in front of it, it will not change." You have to learn from the old man, even if the knife is on your neck, you should eat tea and tea, and you should enjoy the snow and snow

"Xiaguan is too indebted, and I have to practice more with the domain." He Zhifu echoed continuously. Then he saw the maid come in with a copper kettle, and asked, "The water is boiling?" ”

"Yes." The maid replied softly.

"Let's make it here," pointing to the carved low wooden table, Zhang Fantai said to He Zhifu: "Let's put aside the mundane things first, and quietly taste the Miyun Dragon is the right thing to do." ”

"That's right." He Zhifu nodded and said.

"Let's get started." Zhang Fantai waved his sleeves, the melodious music started again, the maid put the boiling kettle under the table, knelt down and took out the Miyun Dragon Tea contained in the exquisite tin can on the table, and then began to brew in the palm of the hand elegantly, ordering soup, dividing rǔ, refilling water, warming the cup, and serving tea...... All the procedures are very skillful, like flowing water, giving people a visual enjoyment.

When everything was done, the maid stepped forward on her knees, lifted the tray above her head, and said softly, "Your Excellency, please have tea." ”

On the tray were two white pear blossom pots, each containing half a cup of turquoise tea. He Zhifu hurriedly stretched out his hand to Zhang Fantai to make a gesture of invitation, Zhang Fantai also stretched out his hand to signal him to be casual, so he picked up a pear blossom cup, sent it to his nose and sniffed it deeply, and couldn't help but say: "The tea fragrance is a lot more elegant." ”

"Fantai will try the tea soup again." He Zhifu held the tea cup in one hand, and the other hand still maintained the posture of please, and his eyes did not leave Zhang Fantai at all.

Zhang Chūn brought the tea cup to his mouth, and was about to take a sip, but when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps in the distance, he couldn't help but feel bad, his brows furrowed, and the tea cup stopped at his mouth.

"What's going on?" Seeing that Fantai Yaxing was disturbed, He Zhifu said angrily in the direction of the person who came like a cat with its tail stepped on: "Didn't you order earlier that no one should be disturbed during this time?"

"My lord, 100,000 people are in a hurry" but they ignored him, and his steps were faster.

"What's the matter?" He Zhifu was also made nervous: "Has the search progressed?" ”

"Yes, yes......" The person who came was in a hurry and actually stammered.

"Don't mess up your mood...... "Zhang Fantai is as steady as Mount Tai, takes a sip of the teacup, and moistens it in his mouth for a while, wanting to appreciate the subtlety of this tribute tea.

"Yes, Wang Xian has returned to Taiyuan"

'Poof, Zhang Fantai heard this, and a mouthful of tea soup was sprayed firmly on He Zhifu's face. At the same time, as soon as the hand was loosened, the expensive Song Dynasty pear blossom pot fell to the ground and shattered.

He Zhifu looked at the lord of the clan in a daze, and said that the Taishan of the good Lu collapsed in front of the sè, and the knife holder on the neck did not delay eating tea? Feelings are all bragging......
