If women compete for favor, the emperor is the most deeply felt by the emperor. This is what he said in Tang Li's ears. No matter how he hears it, he will feel gloating.

In public, the emperor of the dynasty discussed the relationship between the children of the boudoir. Tang Li really couldn't do this, so he invited a cup to drink and said: "I'm going to ask for tea, let's see what the difference between Qing Jiancha and onion and ginger Jiancha?"

"Don't worry, Peng'er, if your brother-in-law treats your sister in the future, let alone your uncle, even if he is an aunt, he will not be able to spare him." When coaxing Xiaopangqiu'er, the imperial concubine glanced at Tang Li and said these words as if it was true or false.

Just as Yang Fei was talking, Xuanzong took a sip of the tea and said, "Yeah, that's right. Although this tea is not as fierce as onion and ginger tea, it is better than light and long, which is suitable for today's party."

Seeing that Concubine Yang was about to open her mouth again, Tang Lisheng was afraid that she would say anything else. He took the words of Xuanzong, and pointed to the monk Huaisu who was sitting next to him with a smile, saying, "This kind of pure tea is better than a light fragrance. It is best to sip it in small mouthfuls. It is like a monk swallowing big mouthfuls like drinking wine. It is a good tea but not the other person. It is like sipping a clear spring and pouring a flower on it. It is really a waste of resources, and it is a great crime!"

Hearing his words, the few people looked at the empty tea cup in front of Huaisu and couldn't help laughing out loud. The monk knew that this was Tang Li's use to change the topic, so he didn't care. Gu Zi picked up a wine cup next to him and drank it up.

Looking down at the clear soup made in the middle of the cup, smelling the faint fragrance, Xuanzong, who tasted tea like this for the first time, became interested in such an atmosphere, "Oh! There are so many things to pay attention to when drinking a cup of tea? If you have nothing to do, you may as well tell me."

He picked up the tea cup in his hand and signaled to Concubine Yang and Princess Yuzhen to drink. Tang Li said with a smile: "A small cup of tea and water also has its own meaning. Not to mention the choice of tea, water, and utensils, there are many considerations in the environment for drinking tea alone."

"oh?".

Tang Li saw Li Tengjiao leaning against him and murmured softly. He twisted his body and was sleeping soundly. He gently supported her waist and placed it on his lap where he sat cross-legged. He then said, "For example, this tea is suitable for a temple, cloud forest, porcelain vase, bamboo stove, elegant people, and fairy friends. He is suitable for a day and a day, sitting in a cold night, under the pine moon, among flowers and birds, clear flow of white stones, green moss and green moss, and plain springs, red makeup to sweep snow, blow fire on the bow of the boat, and smoke floating in the bamboo."

Since the Tang Dynasty, since the Emperor Daizong and the Emperor Dezong's tea fairy Lu Yu, who wrote the "Tea Sutra" in his hand, the real tea ceremony was published. During this Tianbao period, Tang Li had just said fifteen words of Yi, which were unprecedented.

In the back garden in early spring and February, I looked at the fragrance of tea in the cup. I saw the handsome young man in front of me, and talked and thought about the artistic conception of his words. For a moment, I really felt out of the world.

"It really makes sense, Ali continues!" This time the person who answered the conversation was Princess Yuzhen.

Seeing that the few people he said were listening with relish, Tang Li patted Li Tengjiao on the shoulder and said: "He was leisurely, tired, and his mood was chaotic. He listened to the song and arranged music. After the song ended, Dumen avoided things, played the piano and read paintings, talked late at night, bright windows and clean tables, bridal chambers, beautiful guest little friends, visiting friends for the first time, wind and sunny days, light rain, small bridges and boats, lush forests and bamboos, class flowers and birds, He Pavilion escaped the summer heat, burned incense in the courtyard, people dispersed, children's halls, quiet temples, famous springs and strange rocks. The most taboo drinking tea is the yin room, kitchen, city noise, children cry, wild people, children's servants coaxed each other and hot teahouses. The above is just the environment of drinking tea. As for many other considerations, I'm afraid that half a day's work is not enough."

After listening to Tang Li quietly, Xuanzong looked at the tea cup in his hand for a moment, and said with interest: "What my dear nephew said just now is unprecedented. Today is the time to have time and the seasonal environment is suitable. How can I cook a cup and comment with us?"

"I have snow water from osmanthus trees in the winter. Tea and various cauldrons are excellent. The season is early spring and February. The spring scenery in the back garden is suitable. There are monks, yellow crowns, and uncles are also different. This elegant person is also rare. Tea friends are also leisurely. It is said that these conditions are a perfect time to cook tea. What a pity..." Listed a lot of conditions suitable for cooking tea. Tang Li's last two sentences made everyone feel good. Emperor Xuanzong frowned slightly and said, "Since that's the case, what's the pity?"

"It's a pity that you have just drunk a cup of tea. Although Zheng Peng's method of boiling tea has its own characteristics, it has no magic. The tea ratio and heat control are all flawed. The tea produced in this way is really a big evil. If this tea enters the stomach, even if I fry it again, you will not be able to taste the fragrance of it. I have nowhere to waste good tea and water. If my uncle wants to taste tea, he can only wait for a long time." Looking at the little fat ball in front of Concubine Yang, Tang Li looked full of regret when he said this.

When he was in Jinzhou that day, he was with Tang Li day and night. Zheng Pengben knew that his future brother-in-law was a bit petty. Seeing him talking so much, he finally fell into the wrong place on him. However, Xiaopangqiuer could not say what Tang Li had just retorted, and he could only pout and sulk.

"I am a young nephew. I really have some morale after hearing what you said just now." When I put the tea cup back to the shortest table, Xuanzong smiled and said, "I heard that you are making tea, but I have the word "天". Well, the next day is the next day, so that you won't let go of others if you cook bad tea."

Seeing someone talking for him, Xiaopang immediately "hummed" and continued: "That's it!".

His childish movements made everyone laugh. Then the few people sitting on the ground talked casually in the wind. The topic involved calligraphy, painting, singing and dancing. Everyone was elegant. This conversation was really expressing their own opinions. It was a great pleasure to have a clever exchange. It was not until dusk that Emperor Xuanzong and the imperial concubine left the Tang Mansion accompanied by Princess Yuzhen. Only looking at their leisurely smiles on their faces, I guess they were really satisfied with their trip today.

....................................................

Time passed, and it was more than 20 days before the emperor gave his marriage. Because he was still on holiday, Tang Li, who had never been appointed as an official, had also lived a leisurely life. On that morning, he was flipping through the book book casually in the study room, but he heard the sound of rapid footsteps outside the study room. Then he saw Li Tengjiao, who was full of excitement, ran in and took his hand and walked out without saying a word.

Seeing that Li Tengjiao's expression was nothing unusual, Tang Li followed him and asked with a smile: "Look at you being anxious. What's the important thing?"

Unexpectedly, Li Tengjiao didn't speak. He just pulled Tang Li to outside a secluded courtyard.

"Baozhu, have you prepared everything you have done?" As Li Tengjiao shouted, Baozhu sisters came over with a plate of very fine meat.

Several people walked into the side courtyard, and Li Tengjiao shouted, "Tiger slave, tiger slave, come out quickly!" In response to her shout, he heard the giant man nearly meter tall walking out with the little beast in his arms that day.

As soon as the giant man approached several people, the little beast in his arms was already stammering at Li Tengjiao.

"Let it down, let it down." As soon as he saw this little beast, Li Tengjiao immediately jumped with his hands excitedly and shouted.

The giant man put down the little beast in his arms as he said. The little guy with white body staggered to Li Tengjiao and started whining around her feet.

"Tang Li, look, it's so fun! Baozhu, Yuzhu. Why are you still standing there? Take the things over!" He pulled Tang Li and squatted down in front of the little beast. Li Tengjiao took the water bowl and poured out white sheep's milk from his pink palm and fed it to the little beast.

Amid the joyful whimpering of the little beast, he stretched out his front paws and pressed Li Tengjiao's hand, and licked it continuously with his thorny tongue. As Li Tengjiao couldn't help but giggle, Tang Li looked at the little guy in a slight way.

At first glance, Tang Li thought it was like the Persian cat I saw in Xingqing Palace that day. But after looking closely at this time, he gradually realized something was wrong. Not to mention that the small beast's thick and powerful limbs and whimpering sounds were far from comparable to ordinary domestic cats. Just because it was protecting its claws when eating, and the posture of no one around was far from being able to cats.

Looking closely at the appearance of the little beast, and thinking about Li Tengjiao's name just now, Tang Li blurted out and said, "This is a tiger!"

Seeing Tang Li's surprise look, Li Tengjiao was giggling and whispering proudly: "It's a tiger, and it's a white tiger."

"White Tiger!", muttering this sentence, Tang Li was stupid when he looked at the little guy who could chew and eat meat by himself. Although he had seen tigers in zoos in later generations, when did he get so close? Besides, it was a pure white tiger that did not exist at all?

The one I gave when I bought a slave was actually carrying such legendary white tigers. Looking at Li Tengjiao's excited appearance, Tang Li really didn't know whether he was lucky or too lucky.

Mix the goat's milk on the plate of meat, which was enough to be two or three pounds. The little white tiger ate it while calling it, but in just half a cup of tea it was wiped out.

After roaring and drinking, the little tiger felt comfortable. He opened his mouth and stretched his limbs on the ground, rolling a few times before he walked lazily towards the giant man.

"Be ready!" Seeing that the little tiger had finished eating, Li Tengjiao, who had been impatient, turned his head and said to Tang Li without any hesitation, grabbed his hand and stretched forward with his own, and took out a small untied knife from his arms and handed it to the giant man.

"What are you doing?" Tang Lizheng asked in confusion, and saw the giant man opposite him take the knife and immediately bow to the north and chanting something loudly in an extremely strange language.

Although he couldn't hear the language used by the giant man, Tang Li saw that his tone was very similar to the way the Shanye tribes were praying for the gods in the documentary that he had seen in later generations. His pious face was in his vague tone and word-by-word tone. As the giant man sang slowly, tears flowed out from his eyes like a copper bell. Tang Li actually felt a mysterious and strange aura rising from the courtyard in the blue sky and white sun.

After just waiting for the last long tone to chant, the giant man knocked three loudly to the north again.

After the giant man finished all this, the knife in his big palm-shaped hand, which was like a palm-leaf fan, had already flashed by. Before Tang Li and Li Tengjiao could react, wisps of blood had already emerged between their fingers.

The kneeling posture remained unchanged. When the giant man saw blood flowing out, the sleepy singing sound from his mouth sounded again, driving the little white tiger to the front of the two. The giant man grabbed Tang Lizheng's right hand, which shrank back, and forcibly applied the blood between his fingers to the white tiger's nose.

Tang Li was instinctively shivering his hands just now, but his strength was as strong as a giant man. Driven by a big hand like a steel pliers on the ground, the blood flowing from his fingers smeared through the white tiger's nose, mouth, and ears in turn, and then passed through his forehead and head all the way back to the tail.

It was not until the end of this circle that the giant man let him go. Tang Li took back his hand that was pinched and was furious. He was about to call someone to take the crazy man, but he saw the white-haired tiger who had just ignored him, licking his blood on his mouth while staggering towards it. The expression between his eyebrows and eyes was tamely tamed.

Seeing this scene, Li Tengjiao, who was excited, stretched out his hands repeatedly and said, "Hurry, hurry, it's my turn, it's my turn!"

He did what Li Tengjiao did. After all this, the chanting in the giant suddenly changed from a faint low singing to a huge roar of a tiger going down the mountain forest. With the roaring sound, he first bowed north three times, then bowed to the little tiger, Tang Li, Li Tengjiao and the other three times in turn, with tears rolling, and his face looked extremely pious.

Looking at the little tiger rubbing around his legs, Tang Li, who was bandaging and wounding for him, did not understand the purpose of the giant man, but he vaguely knew that he had completed some kind of ritual. He calmed down and was about to ask, when he saw a little fat ball running into the gate of the courtyard and shouted excitedly: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, my sister has arrived in Xinfeng County. Let's go and pick her up..."
