Chapter 492: Liu Ertiao’s Trouble (1)

"Father! My son is paying homage to my father!" After entering the study, Yu Zhang bent obediently and bowed to Li Shimin who was watching the memorial. Then, under Li Shimin's warm greeting, he gently moved his lotus steps and reached his father's side.

Li Shimin smiled and folded the book in his hand, looked at his precious daughter, and said, "Why did Ru'er have the time to come to her father today? Is your sister Changle's body already very good?"

Knowing that in recent days, Yuzhang has been in the Duke of Qi's palace, accompanying the sick Princess Changle day and night. It was because he saw her coming and looked happy at this moment that Li Shimin asked this question.

"Yeah!" Yu Zhang nodded fiercely with his hands on his back, saying, "Although Sister Changle's body is still extremely weak, according to the diagnosis of Doctor Ren, there are signs of gradually getting better. Compared to before, it is already great. Now Sister Changle can stay and enjoy the flowers."

"Yeah, that's good," Li Shimin nodded and sighed softly: "The disease that Changle has suffered is the same as what your mother's queen had obtained. I think it was the root cause of the disease that was infected when she was serving your mother in Lizheng Hall in the early years. Fortunately, this time I have a good prescription to cure such qi disease, otherwise..."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but remember Liu Yilai, who had treated Empress Changsun's qi. Including this, Liu Yilai had saved three lives of their royal family.

"Ru'er, the Mr. Yifan who is currently studying at the Lizheng Hall Professor Zhinu and others, has already found a face with him?" Leaving the melancholy thoughts just now, Li Shimin changed the subject and asked Princess Yuzhang softly: "What do you think of Mr. Yifan?"

"I just returned from the palace and haven't met Mr. Yifan," Princess Yuzhang replied softly: "But when I was in Fengjie, Kuizhou before the New Year, I had some dealings with Mr. Yifan and had some understanding of this man. To borrow a sentence from Changshi Di, Mr. Yifan is a man of both talent and intelligence. Whether it is literary, knowledge, or the way he teaches students, it is amazing."

Without revealing his eyebrows, Yu Zhang said a lot of good words to Liu Yifan in front of Li Shimin.

"Haha, I have a clear view of this, and it is precisely because of this that I decided to summon him to the palace to be responsible for teaching Zhinu and Yizi's studies," Li Shimin smiled and looked at Yu Zhang, saying, "So far, Mr. Yifan has not disappointed me, and your mother. Zhinu and Yizi seem to love him very much. I have never seen this in other men."

"My Father is right!" Yu Zhang smiled with his hands behind his back, glanced at Li Shimin, twisted his body mischievously, and said, "Father, let's not talk about Mr. Yifan. Today, I am here, but I have a gift for my father. And I am sure that the gift I brought today will definitely like it!"

"Oh?" Li Shimin cooperated to look at Yu Zhang's hands, but the thing was behind Yu Zhang's back, and his eyes were beyond his reach. Li Shimin couldn't help but reach out and tapped Yu Zhang's little head with a doting smile, "You girl, you are such a big girl, why do you still like to keep your father in hiding? Well, what is it? Let's take it out and see if I'm happy!"

After joking with his daughter for a while, Li Shimin's body and mind were relaxed, and he moved his arms and a little bitter shoulder, stood up lightly, and waited for Yu Zhang to take out the gift behind him.

"I understand, Father!" Yu Zhang looked at his father with a grudge, then moved his hands from behind to front. A small wooden box that looked very delicate and beautiful, quietly placed in her hand. Yu Zhang stepped forward and approached Li Shimin's side, and smiled and said, "Father, look, this is the gift that the son minister brought to his father. This was something that the son minister finally asked for from his uncle. Only one or two things were worthy of the uncle."

"'Sanyuan Tea'?" Li Shimin looked at the three words "Liu's calligraphy" carved on the wooden box, looked up at Yu Zhang, and said, "Is this the gift you brought to your father?"

"Yes, Father, this tea is a little more expensive than gold. One or two tea leaves costs 100 jin of silver to buy it!" Yu Zhang gently opened the lid of the box, and a faint fragrance spread out from the tea box. He put it on his nose and sniffed it lightly. Yu Zhang continued: "The taste of tea soup is much better than the tribute tea in this palace. I will know it after my father and emperor taste it myself."

"My uncle is very proud of this kind of tea, and he is so precious. If I hadn't been begging me for a long time last night, my uncle would not have given me any of it!" Yu Zhang handed the tea box to Li Shimin, and he kept complaining to her father.

"Oh? You said the auxiliary machine is stingy? Haha, I'm a little surprised. What kind of tea color can make Changsun Wuji, who has always been generous and open, become a stingy person." Li Shimin smiled and took the tea box with a gentle smile. Looking at the tea leaves scattered in the box, he couldn't help but ask Yu Zhang softly, "The appearance of this kind of tea is strange. What's the point of eating it?"

"The father is wise and can tell the secret at a glance," Yu Zhang slapped Li Shimin's flattery and said: "The 'Sanyuan Tea' is different from those common tea balls and tea cakes. It does not require boiling water. Usually, you only need to brew it in boiling water and you can drink it directly. My son will brew it for the father!"

Just as Yu Zhang was carrying a pot of boiling water to make tea for Li Shimin, Li Ran bowed and walked out of the study, bowed to Li Shimin and Yu Zhang, and replied in a soft voice: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, are waiting outside the hall."

"Well, let him come in!" Li Shimin waved his hand and ordered Li Ran.

"The prince is here too?" He covered the porcelain cover of the tea bowl, Yu Zhang gently carried the tea bowl and returned to Li Shimin's side, with his eyes constantly looking out of the study door.

"Well? This kind of 'Sanyuan Tea' is a bit tricky," As Yu Zhang approached, Li Shimin gradually smelled the scent that slowly faded from the tea bowl, and turned his head to look at the tea bowl in Yu Zhang's hand.

"That's natural," Yu Zhang couldn't help but raise his head and said with a smug look on his face, "But this tea soup needs to be soaked for a while before it tastes delicious. The father still has to wait for a while."

"My son has met my father!" While he was speaking, Li Chengqian stepped into the study and bowed to Li Shimin. He saw that in his hand, he was holding a wooden box exactly the same as that brought by Yu Zhang, "Sanyuan Tea". He just got some from the "Liu Family Tea House" yesterday and tried to taste good. Today, Li Chengqian personally delivered it to the Tai Chi Hall.

"Brother Prince!" Yu Zhang looked at Li Chengqian happily, and finally looked at the "Sanyuan Tea" in Li Chengqian's hand, and said softly: "Did the Prince Brother bring tea to his father this time? That's a coincidence, but the Prince Brother is one step later than Ru'er!"

As he said that, Yu Zhang raised the tea bowl in his hand proudly at Li Chengqian. After a while of brewing, the tea aroma in the tea bowl became even more intense. Standing at the entrance of the study, Li Chengqian could also smell the tea aroma unique to the "Sanyuan Tea".

"Uh?" Li Chengqian was stunned, then chuckled again, looking at Yu Zhang with a doting voice and said, "Ru'er is right, she is indeed a little late. However, this kind of fragrant tea is good as long as the father can drink it, so there is no need to care who will deliver it first."

Seeing that his sister seemed to have returned to her previous cheerful and naughty attitude, Li Chengqian was also very happy. Such Yuzhang was the familiar Yuzhang that his father and mother, and his brothers and sisters inside and outside the palace.

"In this way, you all know this 'Sanyuan Tea'?" Li Shimin waved his hand to signal the prince and Yu Zhang to sit aside, and asked the two of them with some confusion: "Do you know where this 'Sanyuan Tea' is produced? Why have I never heard anyone mention it before?"

Not to mention that Yu Zhang and the prince came to offer tea to him together, just by smelling the tempting fragrance of tea, Li Shimin knew that this kind of tea is good, but it is just such a good tea. Why haven't you even heard of it before?"

"Return to Father," Seeing that Yu Zhang seemed to have only a little understanding of this matter, Li Chengqian took the lead and replied: "This kind of 'Sanyuan Tea' was sold on the market yesterday. The father had never heard of it before, which is reasonable. The son also heard someone mention it yesterday and found out a rough idea." After pausing, Li Chengqian pointed to the tea on the table and said: "This kind of tea is produced in Sanyuan, originated from Liu Mansion. Now it is sold by the 'Liu Family Tea House' opened by Liu Mansion. I heard that the business of 'Liu Family Tea House' seems to be very good."

"Oh?'Liu Family Tea House', do you know who the person in charge of this tea house is?" Hearing that Liu Mansion set up another workshop, and the scale and impact it caused seemed to be quite large, Li Shimin was the first to think of Liu Yifan who was in the palace. Could it be that he had caused some storms?

"Since Liu Erzhao left his home and broke off contact with Liu's mansion, all the affairs of Liu's mansion were managed by the butler Liu Wuchen. This time, he was the head of the 'Liu Tea House'."

"Liu Ertiao has cut off contact with his family? What's going on?" After hearing Li Chengqian's words, Yu Zhang started to ask in surprise.
