Cui Yingying looked strangely at Li Yin who seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and said, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"
"Did you just say that there is matcha craftsmanship on the gift list?" Many people in modern times may have forgotten the matcha craftsmanship, but because Li Yin consulted the history of the Tang Dynasty, he re-understood matcha, which is regarded as the quintessence of the Japanese people. Today's China has lost the tea art.
Cui Yingying handed the gift list to Li Yin and said, "That's right, that's what it says. Is there anything special about this matcha?"
Matcha is a kind of superfine powder, covered, and steamed green tea that is ground with a natural stone mill. This process began in the Sui Dynasty, and flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties. After the appearance of modern bubble tea in the Ming Dynasty, Matcha gradually lost its market. It disappeared in history, but according to Li Yin's understanding, matcha tea was not popular in Tang Dynasty at this stage. It is estimated that the matcha technology was spread in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, and now tea is popular in Tang Dynasty. The tea made with **** and jujube is somewhat similar to porridge.
"This is a good thing." Li Yin glanced at the gift list. On the back of the craft was a name named Yan Bei, and it was not marked whether it was an official or a merchant. Li Yin received too many people at the time, so he didn't care about it. It's just that this Yanbei seems to have ulterior motives. The matcha tea craft can't be learned just by watching a few production processes. This Yanbei probably wants to do business with the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce. Be anxious, rushing to run at this time will definitely make the other party think that this matcha is very promising, let him hang it for a few days before talking.
The next day, Li Yin and Cui Yingying went to Cui's mansion. Cui Yingying cried when she saw her parents whom she hadn't seen for a year, and then had a private conversation with her mother. Li Yin and Cui Shao could only have one Chatting about inconsequential topics, I asked Cui Zhang and others whether they were still able to use them in Yizhou. Li Yin replied "Yes", Cui Shao heard that he was very happy, and asked Li Yin if he needed someone else, Li Yin hurriedly politely declined. At that time, there were not enough manpower in the fief, so he had to accept Cui Shao's help. Now that this problem has been solved, he still feels that he can rest assured.
New Year’s Eve is always busy, so it’s New Year’s Eve, and Li Shimin is going to hold a grand family banquet at Tai Chi Palace that night. Li Yin didn’t go last year, so he won’t be able to escape this year.
That night, Li Yin took Cui Yingying to Baifu Hall of Taiji Palace, where this year's family banquet will be held. When he and Cui Yingying arrived, there were already many people in Baifu Hall.
"Liu Lang!" Li Ke saw Li Yin first, and walked towards him with a smile. Standing beside him was a woman, Princess Wu Yang.
"Third brother!" The brothers were very cordial when they met, and Li Yin stepped forward to salute Li Ke and Yang Shi.
Cui Yingying is the first time to attend the family banquet. Li Ke asked Yang to accompany Cui Yingying, while he chatted freely with Li Yin, and Li Yin was also happy to accompany him, chatting with Li Ke.
As time passed, there were more and more people in the hall, some princes and princesses arrived one after another, and some princes and princesses who were younger than Li Yin came to salute him. This year they have received many gifts from Li Yin, and their affection for Li Yin has skyrocketed.
"Did Sixth Brother bring a gift for Si Zi? Si Zi's toffee is all eaten." Si Zi and Li Zhi came to the hall and stayed by Li Yin's side, refusing to leave, pestering Li Yin for gifts, and the other little princes And the little princess also followed suit, messing around with Sizi, and the concubines all smiled when they saw this scene. Now these little princes and princesses often talk about Li Yin.
Li Yin pinched Sizi's little nose and said: "You can only give gifts on the first day of the new year, and I will give it to Sizi tomorrow."
"Really?" Sizi opened his eyes wide, "What gift is it, brother six, can you tell Sizi? Sizi won't tell others."
Li Yin whispered something in Sizi's ear, and Sizi immediately started giggling. Bounced and ran to Empress Changsun to show off.
"Sixth brother, where's mine?" Li Zhi was not far behind.
Li Yin made a straight face, "The third brother said that Li Zhi is too stubborn, so he won't give gifts this year."
"Woo... third brother, you speak ill of me!" Li Zhi burst into tears when he heard the words.
Li Ke was very speechless to Li Yin, why did he put the **** bowl on his head, so he said: "Look at your talent, your sixth brother is teasing you, everyone has a gift."
Li Zhi stopped crying when he heard Li Ke say this, while Li Yin laughed heartlessly. It is also good to tease this historical Tang Gaozong.
Playing with many younger brothers and sisters, Li Shimin walked in from outside the main hall, and everyone returned to their seats and sat down. Li Yin's seat was the same as before, and Li You was next to him. Today's Li You is a bit different from before. It's different, the evil spirit on him is heavier, and he is indifferent to Li Yin. Li Yin can't help feeling that the little prince and the eldest prince are just different.
Of course Li Yin ignored Li You, he just listened to Li Shimin's words with his ears, just like the previous home banquet, Li Shimin sat down and said a few words, and the family banquet officially began.
Beautiful wine and family banquet, singing and dancing, the whole Baifu Hall was full of joy. Li Shimin was also in a happy mood and drank frequently. Li Yin also stepped forward to toast Li Shimin.
Li Shimin became interested, "What is it, let the emperor take a look."
"Father and emperor are also invited to accompany the sons and ministers outside the hall, this is not suitable for viewing." Li Yin said respectfully.
Li Shimin was even more amazed that there was something he couldn't see in the room, so he said to the prince and concubines, "Let's go, let's see what new things Liu Lang has come up with."
As soon as Li Yin's voice fell, the young princes cheered and ran out immediately, while Li Chengqian, Li Tai and others were gloomy, and they knew that as long as Li Yin came, they would have no chance to show their faces.
Arrived outside the door, Li Yin greeted the eunuch, the **** left, and after a while came over with a big box, which contained the fireworks that Li Yin bought from Hyundai.
Li Shimin looked at the cylindrical and conical things in the box, and asked, "What is this Liulang?"
"Does my father know about firecrackers?" Li Yin vaccinated these people first, and this thing would explode.
"Of course I know that." He is no stranger to setting off firecrackers in the palace during the Chinese New Year, but when he heard the word firecrackers, the eyes of the other little princes lit up.
Li Yin continued: "This is somewhat similar to a firecracker, except that a very beautiful flame will be released from it."
"Is this also something from Luo Anguo?" Li Shimin asked.
"That's right, this is a toy that Luo Anguo used to celebrate the Chinese New Year. I'm going to order one to show my father now." Li Yin picked up a firework called Fire Tree Silver Flower, walked to the bottom of the steps, and released it immediately so as not to scare these people. people.
Everyone was attracted by Li Yin's actions. At this time, Li Yin picked up a lit candle and lit the fuse.
"Ziz..." The lead wire burned quickly, and in just a few seconds, four or five-meter-high fireworks burst out of the conical fireworks tube, and the raindrop-shaped flame silver flowers scattered all over the sky, tearing apart the dark night Come on, it's so beautiful.
Li Yin was startled when he saw everyone, and then instantly attracted by the beautiful scenery, Li Yin ran over and stood with everyone to watch.
"It's amazing, it's so beautiful, how did it happen." Li Shimin asked, staring at Huoshuyinhua intently.
Li Yin asked Li Ke at the family banquet just now. It turned out that the construction supervisor of the Ministry of Industry already had the most primitive black powder, so he said: "Father, this is made of gunpowder."
"Gunpowder!" This gunpowder is only something that has only appeared in the past two years. Li Shimin has also built and supervised this kind of thing. It can be ignited with a little fire. I didn't expect it to have this effect, but Li Yin solved the mystery of this firework. Li Shimin was no longer afraid, but became interested, "Let me order one too."
Li Yin took out one from inside and explained to Li Yin how to ignite the fireworks. Li Shimin figured out the method, imitated Li Yin and took the firework to the bottom, lighted it with a candle, moved a few steps away, and then another beautiful firework bloomed When it opened, the others were fascinated by it.
"I'll have one too!" Li Ke also had itchy hands, and hugged a cube-shaped fireworks tube from inside. This fireworks tube is a forty-eight-gun skyrocket, and the projectiles will only explode when they are in the air, followed by a fireworks cluster more than ten meters long ,very beautiful.
But when the fireworks were released, Li Yin vaccinated them in advance, telling them that this thing would explode like firecrackers, and everyone covered their ears.
Li Shimin lit a firework very excitedly, and walked back with a smile. He watched Li Ke walk down with one in his arms, and stood on the steps to watch Li Ke set off the firework.
And then, they really saw what fireworks are. After a loud noise, huge colorful fireworks filled the sky. The princes, princesses, and concubines only saw the beautiful scene in the eyes of the Tai Chi Palace. The guards, eunuchs, and maids also saw this spectacle, but many of them were so frightened by the huge explosion that their legs became weak. After knowing that Li Shimin sent someone to tell them that it was a special firecracker, they relaxed and admired the beauty. scenery.
In the various folk squares in Chang'an, the common people were attracted by these "rumbling" sounds, looking in the direction of Taiji Palace, many people knelt on the ground and muttered to themselves.
After Li Ke's fireworks were set off, Li Shimin was on the verge of setting off a few more fireworks. When he was about to light another one, an **** suddenly rushed in from outside the palace, shouting, "Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty!" , the people outside the city say that His Majesty is favored by the heavens, and that auspiciousness descended from the heavens on the Taiji Palace, and they are all bowing down to the Taiji Palace!"
"Hahaha..." Li Shimin, who was about to light the fireworks, laughed when he heard the words. Since ancient times, the idea of the divine right of kings has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which is why many ancient emperors insisted on saying that their mother stepped on their footprints and gave birth to him. , the fireworks that Li Yin brought tonight not only dazzled people, but also allowed Li Shimin to consolidate his royal power. Could he be unhappy at this time?
