Chapter 1964 He was neither promoted nor knighted
Waiting until Wang Shilang was out of breath, he finally ran to Luo Longwen's study and saw Luo Longwen who was drinking tea alone in the study. There were fruit snacks and a small charcoal stove making tea.
In the study, the flames of the small stove licked the teapot, the fragrance of tea and fruit wafted, and Luo Longwen poured and drank by himself.
What's going on?
Didn’t I say that Yan Xiaoge always drank tea at Luo Longwen’s house? Why is it that Luo Longwen is the only one drinking tea?
"Master Wang is a rare guest. Please sit down quickly and have a taste of my pot of Biluochun?" Luo Longwen saw Wang Shilang coming to the door and stood up to greet him with a smile.
"Master Wang is very lucky today. The water I used to boil this pot of Biluochun is the snow water from the plum blossoms picked. The plum blossoms are not ordinary plum blossoms, but the plum blossoms from Qingguo Temple. The so-called, tea Sexuality must arise in water, eighty percent of tea, ten percent of it If you take 10% of the water, the tea will be 10% of it. If I don’t blow it, even the tea sage Lu Yu would have to give it a thumbs up.”
Luo Longwen smiled and boasted while greeting each other.
"Thank you Mr. Luo. I took the liberty to come to visit today. I have something important to report to Mr. Xiaoge. I heard that Mr. Xiaoge was tasting tea at Mr. Luo's house, so I took the liberty to come here. I just might have some news. Is there a mistake? I didn’t expect Mr. Xiaoge to be away from Mr. Luo’s house.”
Wang Shilang thanked him, and then explained his purpose of coming, and said with some regret.
"The news is correct, the news is correct, brother Donglou is in my house." Luo Longwen said with a smile.
Huh?
Wang Shilang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, looked around, and asked doubtfully, "Then why didn't you see Mr. Xiaoge?"
Didn't Yan Shifan come to taste tea? You've already cooked the snow-water Biluochun, why didn't you see Yan Shifan?
Wang Shilang was puzzled.
"Oh, Brother Donglou is not drinking tea in my study. He is drinking tea in other rooms in the house. Well, according to Brother Donglou's habit, after about a stick of incense, Brother Donglou will finish drinking tea and come over and sit for a while. Try the tea I made."
Luo Longwen explained.
"There are other tea ceremony masters in Mr. Luo's house? Why don't we sit together and enjoy tea?" Wang Shilang said in surprise.
Uh, why is it a bit strange? Why is Yan Shifan still enjoying tea in other rooms? Wouldn't it be better to have tea with you?
"Ahem, well, there are indeed other tea ceremony masters in my family, but they have a special way of tasting tea and don't like to be disturbed by outsiders. Brother Donglou will come over to me after tasting their tea. This tea.”
Luo Longwen explained with a somewhat unnatural expression.
"Oh, there is also such a strange tea ceremony. If there is no emergency today, I would also like to have a taste."
Wang Shilang said curiously, and then urged Luo Long Wendao , "Master Luo, I have something important to report to Mr. Xiaoge today. Where can Mr. Xiaoge have tea? Please Mr. Luo will lead the way. I will go to visit Mr. Xiaoge and report to him. "
" Mr. Xiaoge is in high spirits and cannot be disturbed. It only takes about a stick of incense. Mr. Wang, please wait here for a moment. "< br>
Luo Longwen shook his head and firmly refused. There was no room for negotiation at all.
"Master Luo, it is about the reward for Zhu Ping'an in Suzhou. Time is urgent. The time given by the Holy Father is running out. I need to report the draft of the reward to Mr. Xiaoge for final decision. I hope Master Luo can make it convenient."
Wang Shilang said anxiously.
Although he is very confident in his plan, if it does not pass, he will ask Mr. Xiaoge for advice and think of a way back when he goes back.
As long as Zhu Ping'an's reward plan was not finalized, Wang Shilang felt like his butt was burning every moment.
“It’s not too late to burn incense. If it disturbs Mr. Xiaoge’s elegance, neither of us can afford it.”
Luo Longwen said without any room for accommodation.
“This, hey,” Wang Shilang couldn’t help but sigh.
"Okay, Mr. Wang, it only lasts for one stick of incense. Come on, please drink this cup." Luo Longwen said and poured a cup of tea for Wang Shilang.
Luo Longwen, the landlord, did not cooperate, and Wang Shilang had no choice but to accept the tea from Luo Longwen.
The snowy water is as green as Luochun. Wang Shilang, who was in a hurry, had no interest in tasting tea. He took a small sip and it tasted like wax.
Fortunately, Luo Longwen is very experienced, and it is almost as long as one stick of incense.
Just when Shilang Wang could hardly sit down, Yan Shifan's voice came from outside the study.
"Hahaha, happy, happy, brother Luo, the skills of your two concubines have greatly improved, it's really fun to have a heart-warming battle."
Yan Shifan commented while laughing. , walked in with his pants and belt tied up, his face was full of joy, but his feet felt a little soft when walking, and he staggered slightly, as if his physical strength had been exhausted.
Hearing Yan Shifan’s words, Wang Shilang’s face was filled with questions.
What's going on?
Didn’t Mr. Yan Xiaoge go to taste tea? Why did he still praise Luo Longwen’s two concubines for their great improvement in skills?
Could it be said that Luo Longwen’s two concubines are rare tea ceremony masters? Were they entertaining Mr. Yan Xiaoge just now? No wonder Luo Longwen didn't let me go. After all, she was Luo Longwen's concubine. How could I see my foreigner casually? Being able to entertain Mr. Yan Xiaoge with tea art is all for Mr. Xiaoge's sake.
It’s just that what kind of tea art does Mr. Xiao Ge actually use the word “panchang war” to describe it? Still feeling happy after drinking?
This tea art is really curious.
The more Wang Shilang thought about it, the more question marks appeared on his face.
"Oh, Lord Wang is here?" Yan Shifan walked into the study and saw Shilang Wang. He was a little surprised. He tied his belt faster with his hands, and pulled his collar with his hands to block it. The lip marks left by the fierce battle above.
"Mr. Xiao Ge, regarding Zhu Ping'an's reward, I have been thinking hard for several days and nights, and finally came up with a draft. Just now, I went to visit your mansion and learned that Mr. Xiaoge has come to Mr. Luo's house. , so he took the liberty of visiting. "
Wang Shilang was eager to report Zhu Ping'an's reward plan, and did not notice Yan Shifan's abnormality. He presented the plan in his hand like a treasure, and without hesitation he gave the fat wife's credit to himself. on the body.
“I’m a little low on energy, and I’m too lazy to watch. Anyway, Mr. Wang is here, so just tell us directly.”
Yan Shifan took the plan, threw it on the table, sat down on the chair, and said to Wang Shilang.
"Then let me make a long story short. Zhu Ping'an has made such great military exploits. According to the regulations, he can be promoted to at least the third rank. If he is awarded a title, the title of earl is more than enough. Our Ming Dynasty stipulates that titles cannot be awarded unless they have military merit. , the title cannot be given without special purpose, and Zhu Ping'an's military exploits are enough for him to be titled Earl."
Wang Shi. Lang first said that Zhu Ping'an's meritorious service was so great that according to common sense, he would be given a heavy reward, and then said with some pride, "I have been thinking hard for several days and nights, and came up with a reward plan. I don't need to give him a promotion or a knighthood." < br>
"What? Don't give him a promotion or a knighthood? How is this possible?!" After hearing this, Luo Longwen opened his mouth in disbelief.
Yan Shifan was also a little unbelievable. (End of chapter)
