Chapter 80: Tea Thoughts (I)

In the early morning, the red is rising in the east. The verdant bamboo forest, in the sun, sends out a guest.

"Ah, it failed. Brother Lu Xiandi didn't even show his face this time. Muttering to himself, Ouyang Tu stepped out of the bamboo garden.

"Stop here, tell your master for me, that I thank him for his hospitality. I will visit again if I have the chance. Ouyang Tu arched his hand, and without waiting for the other party to respond, he walked into the distance leisurely.

At the gate of the bamboo garden, the boy stood on the ground, watching it in the distance.

After a long time, Fang turned around and closed the gate of the bamboo garden.

"Sir, the guest has been sent off. Before leaving, he thanked you and said he would visit you again. In a bamboo forest, the boy repeated the other party's words to his husband.

"Ouyang Tu is actually a lobbyist for a vassal this time, which is a bit interesting. Lu Yuqing's melodious male voice smiled softly.

"San Lang, what do you think of Wang Hongyi?" Lu Yu continued to ask after a while.

The boy was actually a relative, and he thought for a moment and said, "I haven't seen him, so it's not good to comment on him." ”

"Hehe, that's the truth, even you understand this, Brother Ouyang must also understand, right? Okay, you go down. ”

"No. ”

The footsteps faded away, and there was only one person left.

This mountain is not high, hundreds of meters, but the bamboo forest is deep, the green bamboo along the way is continuous, the wild flowers and old vines, the mountain birds and birds are singing, all make people feel refreshed and happy, standing in one place, only to see the mountain wind gusting, the bamboo forest roars like a tide, the sunlight seeping down from the bamboo forest, reflects the deep eyes.

At this time, Lu Yu sighed quietly, and said to himself: "Brother Ouyang, if my guess is right, you have some connection with the hidden door, back then, you and the little brother met by chance, there were many coincidences, this time I did not hesitate to come here again, to be a lobbyist, could it be ...... This Wang Hongyi, is the person you have chosen?"

"Even if it's a hidden dragon in Shu, what's the matter, how can this heavenly way be controlled by mortals?

This sigh, in the bamboo forest, gently surrounded, for a long time.

"Lord, walk ten miles further, and you will reach the town behind the river. ”

Along the way, they were all small households, and when they saw a small town street from afar, Wang Hongyi wiped his sweat and said: "I know, let's rest, it's morning, it's so hot!"

"Lord, July and August are the hottest of all!" said one of the attendants.

Wang Hongyi looked left and right and said: "I have heard of this Hehou Town, every May Day set, but not today, there are few people on the road...... Huh?"

I saw an ox cart, on which there was a scholar, slowly coming, this person's face was slightly long, very neatly groomed, with a smile between his eyebrows, clear eyes.

Seeing the team, this person just waved and continued to move forward.

There are no windows on both sides of this ox cart, and there is a thin bamboo mat on it, and people are very leisurely in it.

"Lord, is there a problem with this person?" Gan Hou, the captain ......of the guard, saw Wang Hongyi staring at this person, so he whispered for instructions.

"No, just keep going. Wang Hongyi said, urging the horse and moving forward.

Gan Hou turned his head to look at the man, and chased after him.

"It's surprising that a prince should be seen in such a place. Could it be that he was going to visit Lu Xiandi? This is really a coincidence. Seeing that the team had passed, Ouyang Tufang chuckled.

However, the ox cart continued slowly down a road, and after a while, it disappeared.

"Lord, that person is very popular, and he came out from the direction of Zhulin Town, could it be the person you want to visit?" At this time, Gan Houzheng had already followed, and finally couldn't help but tell Wang Hongyi about the doubts in his heart.

After Wang Hongyi heard this, he said: "He is not. ”

Seeing Wang Hongyi so sure, Gan Hou was very surprised, but he didn't dare to ask more, and thought to himself: "Could it be that the Lord knows the master of the bamboo garden?"

Wang Hongyi did know Lu Yu, but in his previous life.

The team continued to move forward, and they reached the foot of the mountain, and when they looked up, they saw that the mountain was not high, almost 100 meters, and most of it had become a bamboo forest.

Before they reached the manor below, everyone dismounted.

"Lord, this is the Bamboo Garden, I'm going to call the door?" said Gan Hou inquiringly.

"Yes. Wang Hongyi nodded.

Gan Hou then stepped over and knocked on the door.

After a while, the bamboo door opened from the inside, and a boy came out from the inside.

"What is the matter with you?" the boy asked, stunned, when he saw the many people outside the door.

"My father-in-law came to visit Mr. Lu and invited this little brother to come in and say hello. Gan Houyin had told Wang Hongyi before, and said very politely.

"Your father-in-law?" looked at the people behind him, his eyes fell on Wang Hongyi, and the boy saluted Wang Hongyi and asked, "I don't know what you call it?" ”

"Wenyang Mansion, Wang Hongyi. Wang Hongyi said with a smile.

Hearing this name, the boy's face was a little strange, but he still replied politely: "Okay, please wait a while, and the little one will go in." ”

As he spoke, he walked briskly inside.

After a while, two people walked out of it, and out of the boy was a man, handsome and elegant, with a gentle smile, which made people suddenly feel like a spring breeze.

"I just came down from the mountain, I heard the birdsong, and I was thinking, it turned out that General Dingyuan had arrived, and Lu had never greeted him from afar, and asked the general for forgiveness. ”

Wang Hongyi looked at it, and this person coincided with Lu Yu in his impression, and then looked at it intently, only to see that this person's aura was different from everyone he had seen before.

The clear light is faint, condensed in the body, and the heart is considerable, but it is not a rich person.

When the second reunited, Wang Hongyi helped each other up, and said warmly: "It was Wang's sudden visit, not Mr.'s fault." This sudden visit was disturbed by Wang. It's just that Mr. Zao Wen is proficient in the tea ceremony, and Wang is also a person who likes tea, and he knows that Mr. lives in seclusion here, if he doesn't ask Mr. about tea art, wouldn't it be a pity?"

"The general has won the award, Lu only understands this slightly, he is not a master, this kind of statement is just a casual remark from someone outside. I really don't dare to be, I really don't dare to be. ”

After the two of them said a few words at the door, Lu Yu invited everyone into the bamboo garden.

Regardless of the bamboo forest on the mountain, the bamboo garden under the mountain, there are also considerable places, only to see that they are all small and fine, no glass, with window paper, in the yard, against the wall are plum trees.

Wang Hongyi smiled: "True elegance, if I had come earlier, I would have seen this plum blossom scene." ”

"The countryside is not worth mentioning. However, in the plum blossoms, the tea game is indeed a fortunate thing. Lu Yu replied with a smile: "Of course, it is better to be in the bamboo forest on the mountain at this time." ”

"Wang is so honored, and he is willing to have a tea game with Mr. Looking at the bamboo forest on the mountain, Wang Hongyi said with a smile.

This mountain is not high, only 100 meters, although Lu Yu has just come down, he has no objection to going up again, and he said very casually: "The general has Yaxing, let's go up and have a game." ”

So saying, he ordered his servant to go and prepare.

The guards all stayed in the village, only Gan Hou, followed Wang Hongyi, and Lu Yu went up the mountain together.

The bamboo forest is deep, I don't know where I am, as soon as I enter the bamboo forest, Wang Hongyi squinted his eyes, this bamboo forest is a little strange, not to say anything about the magic circle, but it can make the breeze slowly, and suddenly make people have a sense of secluded valley.

"The small building has arrived, and the chessboard has not yet been set up, would you like to go upstairs with Lu to have a look?" Lu Yu glanced at the busy boy next to him and invited.

Wang Hongyi should come down. The two then stepped up to the bamboo building and climbed to the second floor.

I opened the window and looked down in front of the window, a bamboo forest, swaying in the wind, emerald green, and picturesque.

While speaking, there was a sound of footsteps below, and I saw a girl coming up, holding Xiao Heqi in her hand, this girl was wearing a moonlight skirt, her wrists were snow-white and crystalline, and her fingers were as slender as shaltings.

"What does the general think of this?" Lu Yu asked, accompanied by Wang Hongyi.

"This place is really a good place to retreat, the scenery is elegant, and it has a lot of artistic conception. Mr. Lu is a person who will enjoy it. Wang Hongyi said with emotion.

Lu Yu was obviously very satisfied with Wang Hongyi's answer: "The general is right, drinking tea and living here is a great pleasure in life. is a person as high-ranking as a general, and in his spare time, he is afraid that he will inevitably be troubled by political affairs. ”

Wang Hongyi raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he heard the meaning of the other party's words.

But seeing Lu Yu say at this time: "The chessboard has been set up here, and the spring water is also ready, so let Lu show his hand for the general to reward the distinguished guests." ”

The two of them set up a stone table on the balcony.

The chessboard is set up on it, and the chess pieces are all made of jade, which is cool to the touch, and it is very suitable for summer play.

Before the game, Lu Yu personally made tea for Wang Hongyi, and the tea ceremony was indeed very exciting.

Wang Hongyi is a tea lover, and after tasting tea, he gave an evaluation, which made Lu Yu nod again and again.

The gift brought by Wang Hongyi was several packets of new tea, although this new tea seemed simple, but it was ingenious, which made Lu Yu very interested and happily accepted it.

The two sides have a game, you come and go, and it is enjoyable.

After the three sets were over, it was already afternoon, and Wang Hongyi said: "Mr. has such a talent, why not be a master?"

Lu Yu was sorting out the chessboard at this time, and replied: "The general's good intentions, Lu is very grateful, Lu is not good at other things except the tea ceremony, and he is not qualified for the position you mentioned, I am really sorry, please forgive the general." ”

"Then please sir, take the position of doctor of tea chess, and pass on this kind of mastery to the world. Seeing that he was unwilling, Wang Hongyi smiled, and had already prepared to hire him as a doctor of tea chess.

This tea chess doctor is very leisurely, and he does not belong to the courtiers, but is actually a guest secretary.

In peacetime, he was free to come and go, played chess from time to time, and gave preferential treatment in personal and tax matters.

The monthly salary is 10 taels, which is not a small amount.

Lu Yue thought about this and agreed: "Dare not obey?"

It was very speculative with Lu Yu, the two talked for a long time, and when it was close to dusk, Wang Hongyi left the bamboo garden.

Lu Yu also sent it out in person, watching Wang Hongyi leave.

led the team to ride out of the horse for half a mile, strangled the mount and looked back at Zhushan, Wang Hongyi sighed secretly.

Today, Lu Yu was hired, but the other party's attitude shows that he has not yet reached the other party's standard of master.

"Give me some more time, and I will definitely expand my territory, devour the entire Shu land, and become the well-deserved king of Shu. Wang Hongyi thought secretly, but sighed: "If Lu Yu and others become courtiers, wouldn't they fold his tea art?"

The king has the four seas in mind, employing people such as governing the palace room, this high house is majestic, majestic in all directions, is the instrument of the minister and the general, and this garden winding path, deep and distinct, so that the king of people forget the joy of worry, this is Lu Yu, why bother to let him enter the office?

I laughed at myself at the moment.
