The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

"Yes, I understand what you said." Li Yuan responded with a smile.

Soon, the mahjong tiles were stacked and the photos began.

Sitting at the card table, Li Fu was also sorting the tiles while chatting with Li Yuan.

"You have been away for half a year. After you came back, I saw that you have lost a lot of weight." Li Yuan looked at Li Fu and carefully looked at his nephew sitting opposite.

Li Fu said in a relaxed tone: "It's nothing. Going to provide disaster relief is definitely not as comfortable as living at home, but the work is done and it has achieved very good results. My nephew is still very happy."

Li Yuan complained a little: "Oh, Erlang is really, there are so many officials in the court, why did you send you to provide disaster relief? It's not like there are no one who can be used. Where have you been exposed to these before? I thought that I gave you a title and a fiefdom, so that you could stay in Chang'an City and stay by my side to enjoy the good life."

"As a result, you are busy all over the place."

During the half year that Li Fu was away from Chang'an City, Li Yuan really missed him.

What a good young man, filial and interesting, who knows how to make an old man happy.

"It's good to be busy. After all, my nephew is young, so he should exercise more. People in our Li family should always show their achievements when they go out." Li Fu said, "When my second brother was my age, he led troops alone to fight against people on the grassland. What I have done is nothing. In the past, he managed his own one acre and three mu of land. Now he goes to disaster relief and manages the food, drink, and defecation of people in a county. If it weren't for Yan Lide, Jiang Que, and Zhao Chong, my nephew alone would not be able to do it. Even so, I have been troubled for several days because of the disaster victims."

"It's not easy." Li Yuan also sighed: "Dongfeng."

While sighing, he played cards without any delay.

"Pong." Li Fu knocked down his two Dongfeng cards, reached out and took the card that Li Yuan played in front of him, and put it together with the other two.

"My nephew really experienced a lot and learned a lot during his visit to Linying County." Li Fu said, "Other places in the Tang Dynasty are far inferior to Chang'an."

"That's right. After all, Chang'an is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, so it is naturally different from other places." Li Yuan responded with a smile, "However, Erlang has become the emperor. In the future, the people will live a good life, and that is the burden he should shoulder."

Now Li Yuan recalled that it was good for him, the former emperor, to give up his position.

At least so far, what he has done is more meritorious than demerit.

In the future, he will leave a good reputation in history books.

In the future, he will guard the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. At present, if so many things fall on him, he will be overwhelmed.

It is better to enjoy it in Da'an Palace.

As for power, it doesn't matter if you let it go.

Although the title of the emperor does not have real power, it is not lacking in the respect it should have.

Isn't the purpose of holding power to make people look up to you?

It's the same now.

Moreover, this power is in Erlang's hands. If he is unhappy one day, he can just walk into the Taiji Hall. What can the civil and military officials in the court say?

No one can say anything when the father disciplines his son.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan felt more relaxed.

When he was in a good mood, his whole state returned.

In the six months since Li Fu left, there were two more princes and a princess in Da'an Palace.

At the card table, Li Fu and Li Yuan chatted, and the old ministers next to them occasionally praised them, and the atmosphere was also cheerful and harmonious.

"By the way, uncle, I almost forgot to tell you something serious." Li Fu smiled and said, "My nephew came today and gave you a lot of things. They were all taken directly to the warehouse."

"Then let the people below collect them." Li Yuan said nonchalantly.

"Let the eunuch beside you put the account book on the table in your study. Take your time to take a look." Li Fu continued.

Li Yuan still didn't care.

"They are all external things, and the people below can take care of them." Li Yuan said: "However, I remember you told me before that you would issue special tea in the name of my birthday. This year you are not in Chang'an, so this matter has been delayed."

Li Yuan didn't care about the tea, but the words Li Fu said to him before aroused his curiosity. He mainly wanted to know how much those special tea gift boxes could be sold outside.

It was just to satisfy curiosity.

On the day of Li Yuan's birthday, Li Fu had someone send gifts to the palace. Although Li Fu was not present, the etiquette could not be reduced.

"This matter has actually been prepared a long time ago, but my nephew was busy in Linying at the time, and the people below did not dare to offend your uncle's name, so the tea shop didn't do it."

"The boxes are still there nowMy nephew's house has been packed, but it has not been taken out." Li Fu explained: "When you celebrated your birthday, I wanted to give you this gift box, but after all, special tea is not rare for you." Li Yuan laughed. "You, don't say it, Erlang asked you to go to Linying to provide disaster relief, which delayed your earning money. "Li Yuan said with a smile.

When the old ministers beside him heard about the special tea gift box, they were also curious about it.

It sounded like it was going to be sold in the tea shop.

It was just because King Jingyang was not in Chang'an that this was not done.

But the gift box has been made.

They all bought tea at home, but the best they bought was only first-class tea.

In Da'an Palace, after enjoying the special tea with the emperor, they had been thinking about it for a long time, but unfortunately, the special tea was not for sale.

And all they could drink in Da'an Palace was With that cup of tea, the palace servants would refill the tea bowl with water afterwards.

This cup of tea would have no taste after a few sips.

If I could get some special tea back...

I would be able to enjoy special tea at any time.

Although it is expensive, it is expensive for a reason.

This thing cannot be bought and sold on the market. It is not only about enjoyment, but also about status and style, which is a different kind of nobility.

No matter which one, it has a fatal attraction for the rich people in Chang'an City.

"Compared to disaster relief, the tea issue will be put on hold for a while." Li Fu said a little embarrassedly: "It's just that I originally wanted to make your birthday more special this year."

"It doesn't matter, wait until next year." Li Yuan said with a smile: "However, your tea leaves have been packed anyway, and the boxes have been customized. They are valuable, so don't waste them. Just follow your original idea, but change the name. ”

“This is not right, no, no, that’s…”

“If I say it’s OK, then it’s OK.” Li Yuan said, “There are not so many problems, don’t waste it, and by the way, I want to know the value of the special tea.”
