Daoist Abandoned Wisdom

People in Gaochang also drink tea. Unlike Tao Xinian's usual way of drinking tea, the tea here is crisp tea.

Add milk and ghee to the strong tea, as well as a small amount of salt and sugar, the fragrance is strong, and drinking can keep out the cold.Drinking a bowl of hot crisp tea in winter is perfect.

Tao Xinian took a small sip and felt the fragrance on his lips and teeth.He thought that when he returned to Nanliang, he would make tea in this way.

Tao Xinian and Yuan Yao were sitting in the tea room, not far away was Princess Qu Su of Gaochang.Four maids were waiting on the side, and one of them was Xiang'er whom he had seen yesterday.Xiang'er seemed very happy to see Tao Xinian, winking at him frequently.

But the princess was not that happy, her eyes inadvertently passed Tao Xinian's face, and she seemed a little dissatisfied.

Tao Xinian thought, the princess must have never expected that he would follow.

Today, Qu Su did not wear a veil, but showed his face openly.She is really beautiful, with exotic beauty.The complexion is white, the eyes are very bright, the bridge of the nose is straight and straight, the lips are thin, a little affectionate.

"General Yuan, brother Wang must have talked about the marriage with the general, what does the general think?" Qu Su asked.

Yuan Yao said: "I have already returned to the king, the matter of marriage is of great importance, and I need to inform Lord Wei and the Queen Mother before making a decision. Besides, I already have a fiancée, and her background is not noble, so she is not worthy of a princess."

Qu Su grasped the kit tightly, and said softly: "The general means that you don't want to marry Su'er?" She didn't expect that she would be rejected so simply.Could it be that she is not as good looking as the fiancée of General Yuan?

"I'm not a suitable candidate, I hope the princess will think twice." Yuan Yao's tone was very firm, without leaving any leeway.

Yuan Yao was rejecting her, logically speaking, she shouldn't press her any further.She is the princess of Gaochang, there are many people in Gaochang city who want to marry her, but they were rejected, so they shouldn't be forced to stick to her face.However, he had just drank the crisp tea, and after three days, he would no longer refuse her.

When Qu Su thought about it like this, he felt a bit of satisfaction in his heart.It's really funny that he rejected himself so simply today, but fell in love with her three days later.

"General Yuan, is your unmarried wife as beautiful as a fairy?"

Tao Xinian picked up the tea bowl and took another sip. The servant had also asked this question that day.Tsk tsk, why don't you think about virtue and talent?Liang Wanjun looks ordinary, but she is just a delicate and beautiful woman, but she has a very good temper and knows a lot.If he was an ordinary man, he would definitely like such a woman.

"No, she looks ordinary."

"What does General Yuan think Su'er looks like?"

"It's beautiful."

"Could it be that General Yuan is not moved?"

"Although my fiancée looks ordinary, she has excellent morals, and I am not a person who pays attention to appearance."

"Su'er understands, the general is really unusual. Then today, let's pretend that Su'er just invited the two of you to drink tea."

Not long after, Qu Su left the teahouse surrounded by four maids.Xiang'er turned her head frequently, as if she was a little bit reluctant.Tao Xinian smiled at her and waved goodbye.There was a blush on Xiang'er's face, and she walked away slowly with a smile.

Tao Xinian approached Yuan Yao and asked, "Ayao, do you think this princess really just let it go? I always feel something is wrong, her reaction is too flat."

Yuan Yao said: "I believe she understands. If she told King Gaochang, Qu Jia would give up on marrying me and find someone else. It is a good thing for Gaochang to marry Dawei, but I shouldn't be the one When I return to the palace to report to the Queen Mother, she and Uncle Cui will definitely find a suitable candidate."

Tao Xinian stood up, gave Yuan Yao a hand, and the two of them walked slowly back to the guest room on the finely crushed snow.Tao Xinian said: "Although the palace is beautiful and has a lot of delicious food, I want to go back to the post house, where it is more comfortable. We have been in the palace for several days, the King Gaochang will not keep us in the palace forever, right? ?”

"When the king of Gaochang comes to announce it next time, I will mention it to him. If not, I will go to the official Qu."

When he arrived at the door, Tao Xinian opened it and said, "Here we are, I don't know what Abo and Su Huan are doing today. It's a bit boring to stay in the palace for a long time. I really want to go out for a walk. Ah Yao?"

Yuan Yao didn't follow closely, Tao Xinian looked back and saw Yuan Yao stopped in the same place, helped his forehead, said: "Strange, a little dizzy."

"Huh? Did you catch a cold?" Tao Xinian was a little surprised, Yuan Yao's health was always good and he rarely got sick.

Yuan Yao shook his head, entered the door, sat down at the table, picked up the book and read two lines, closed his eyes in pain, and covered his head.

"What's wrong?" Tao Xinian felt something was wrong, "Stretch out your hand to feel your pulse."

"Headache." Yuan Yao obediently handed Tao Xinian his hand for him to inspect.

Tao Xinian took it carefully for a while, and could only feel the pulse condition fluctuated slightly due to emotional fluctuations, and there was no sign of a cold or other symptoms.He frowned and said, "It's not a cold, but dizziness and headache?"

Yuan Yao nodded, and said again: "I'm a little sleepy."

Tao Xinian reached out and touched Yuan Yao's head, but he didn't find anything wrong, so he rubbed his temples.Yuan Yao seemed to be feeling a little better, and reached out to wrap his arms around his waist, leaning on his shoulder.

"Are you feeling better?"

"Seems better."

"It's strange, I didn't do anything today. Could it be that the princess gave you an ecstasy drug?"

Yuan Yao smiled and said, "How can there be such a medicine? Besides, I don't think I like her either."

"Tsk tsk, maybe. The princess is a little strange today. You rejected her, and she left without saying anything. It seems that she is bound to win, not like letting go. There are so many strange people here in Gaochang, maybe there is a way to let her go." Someone who likes me will immediately fall in love with you. If so, what should I do if you fall in love with the princess..." Tao Xinian joked.

Yuan Yao pushed Tao Xinian, and the two lay on the mat, Yuan Yao said: "I will not be controlled, besides, there are you and Su Huan."

Yuan Yao hugged Tao Xinian and fell asleep after a while.The fire in the stove in the room is booming, and the room is as warm as spring.Tao Xinian stretched out his hand to caress Yuan Yao's eyelashes, thinking that even with such an evil method, he could always untie it.

After sleeping for less than half an hour, Tao Xinian faintly woke up, and Yuan Yao was still asleep.He stood up, pressed the thin quilt tightly for Yuan Yao, accidentally touched his forehead, and was startled.Yuan Yao's forehead was very hot and was heating up.

He got up to fetch water, soaked the towel in warm water, wrung it dry, wiped his face, and put it on his forehead.

Strange, really strange.It used to be fine, how can you say that you are sick when you are sick?Ah Yao's health has always been very good, and he hasn't caught a cold in the past few days. Could it be because he drank the princess's tea?

He took Yuan Yao's pulse again, and the pulse was a little weaker, with some signs of illness, but overall, his body was fine.

He went through the wall to call Su Huan, who was sleeping by the stove.Tao Xinian kicked him, Su Huan woke up in a daze, hugged his leg, and muttered, "Taoist Taoist, are you finally willing to double cultivate with me?"

Tao Xinian punched him, and Su finally regained consciousness. It turned out that he was daydreaming.

"Ah, what's the matter?" He asked blankly, "Why are you in my room? Are you trying to moleste me?"

Tao Xinian didn't say much, grabbed his lapel and left, saying, "Come with me."
