Wei Zhongxian lowered his stance. His purpose today was to convince this stubborn old man.
"First of all, I want to know that after the new emperor ascended the throne, Lord Wei took over the East Chamber. I heard that Lord Wei took charge of the East Chamber and set a few new rules.”
After Grand Tutor Chu finished speaking, he looked at Wei Zhongxian with a serious expression.
Wei Zhongxian was stunned. He had never expected that Grand Tutor Chu's first question would be this!
Wei Zhongxian looked at Grand Tutor Chu, still unable to see any expression on his face.
However, Wei Zhongxian smiled. He was suddenly filled with curiosity about the old man in front of him.
"Since Elder Chu wants to hear it, I'll explain it to you.”
"Ever since I took charge of the East Chamber, I've set the three restrictions. These three prohibitions were to prohibit the buying and selling of official positions, to prohibit bullying others, and to prohibit corruption and bribery. In this line of work, it was to do a good deed every day!”
After Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, Grand Tutor Chu nodded.
Huang Jing was dumbstruck. He didn't expect Wei Zhongxian to do this. If he didn't let his subordinates take advantage of him, who would be loyal to him?
Huang Jing naturally didn't understand Wei Zhongxian's style of doing things and his methods of controlling his subordinates. After thinking about it for a moment, he felt that Wei Zhongxian was spouting nonsense.
Qian Zhong was also stunned. He recalled what his teacher had said earlier, and his heart was instantly moved.
Could it be true?
This Wei Zhongxian wasn't the evil person that the world was talking about?
"This old man admires you. I hope Lord Wei is not a person with a strong start but a weak finish.”
Wei Zhongxian understood what he meant. This old man was warning him.
"Zhongxian has always acted according to his heart, but he still knows the basic principle of carrying out an order.”
Grand Tutor Chu nodded and clapped his hands.
The servants who had been waiting for a long time immediately brought tea into the ancient pavilion.
"This is a good tea from Xifeng Mountain. This old man invites the two sirs to taste it.”
After he finished speaking, Grand Tutor Chu picked up his cup of tea and took a sip. The fragrance of the tea immediately filled the ancient pavilion.
Wei Zhongxian's lips curled into a smile. It seemed that he, the Grand Tutor of the Three Dynasties, did not reject him anymore.
"Hahaha, this is really good tea. I didn't come here in vain this time. To be able to taste Grand Tutor Chu's tea, this old skeleton of mine will have something to brag about when I go out.”
After Huang Jing finished speaking, the atmosphere in the ancient pavilion immediately became much better. Wei Zhongxian nodded. This old fellow was not completely useless.
"Lord Wei, what do you think of this old man's tea?”
Grand Tutor Chu ignored Huang Jing and asked Wei Zhongxian directly.
Wei Zhongxian was stunned and gently put down his teacup.
"The tea is definitely good tea, but this tea can be even more fragrant.”
Wei Zhongxian said slowly. Wang Cheng, who was behind him, was stunned.
His lord could even taste tea?
Could it be that he was acting tough? He had heard that Grand Tutor Chu was an expert in the Way of Tea, but the lord actually said that his tea was not good in front of everyone. This…
Wang Cheng immediately frowned. His Excellency wouldn't have shot himself in the foot, right?
"Lord Wei, my master has treated you with such precious tea, but you don't know what's good for you!”
After hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Qian Zhong went berserk.
"Qian Zhong, you talk too much today. Go back and reflect on your mistakes. Go now!”
Grand Tutor Chu said lightly to Qian Zhong. He was a little disappointed with his beloved disciple. The disciple he had trained for many years could not even compare to a follower of Wei Zhongxian.
Naturally, he was referring to Wang Cheng.
Looking at Wang Cheng, who had always been calm and composed, Grand Tutor Chu felt that his disciple was unsightly.
Looking at Qian Zhong's back, Grand Tutor Chu shook his head.
"Lord Wei, please enlighten me. This old man has loved this path for many years. I hope that Lord Wei's words will not disappoint Lazy Pig.”
Wei Zhongxian laughed.
He had been a salesman for three years in his later life. In those three years, he sold tea leaves. I'll talk you to death!
"Lord Chu's tea leaves are naturally good tea leaves, one in ten thousand. However, the processing method of these tea leaves is very crude. They should be stir-fried by hand, and there must be a matching method to stir-fry this tea.”
Wei Zhongxian picked up the teapot and a new cup.
He poured a new cup of tea, but his posture and technique were very strange. Even Elder Chu, who thought himself to be an expert in the Way of Tea, was stunned.
"Elder Chu, taste this cup of tea again and you will understand that what Zhongxian said is true.”
Wei Zhongxian handed the tea to Grand Tutor Chu with both hands. Grand Tutor Chu took it and narrowed his eyes.
He took a sip and looked at Wei Zhongxian in disbelief.
Gently putting down the teacup, Grand Tutor Chu nodded.
Huang Jing had already experienced Wei Zhongxian's tea arts, so he was only slightly surprised. He did not expect Wei Zhongxian to have such attainments in the Way of Tea.
As for Wang Cheng, he was already dumbstruck.
Daren was not pretending, he was really an expert in this field!
This…
"Not bad. How did you do it? The fragrance of the tea didn't leak out.”
Grand Tutor Chu spoke slowly. His attitude towards Wei Zhongxian had unknowingly improved.
"Elder Chu, this method can only be passed down personally and not understood. There is still a long time to come. If Elder Chu is interested, Zhongxian naturally won't hide it.”
Wei Zhongxian kept him in suspense. Elder Chu nodded after listening. He knew what Wei Zhongxian meant. Wei Zhongxian wanted to get closer to him by giving him tea.
"Hehe, let's talk about something else first. This old man still has a few questions that I hope Lord Wei can answer.”
Grand Tutor Chu smiled and didn't agree or reject Wei Zhongxian.
Wei Zhongxian knew that if he didn't answer the last few questions well, he would probably never have a chance with this old man, let alone the tea ceremony.
"Elder Chu, please speak.”
Wei Zhongxian smiled and readjusted his state, making himself neither servile nor overbearing.
"Lord Wei is a loyal and patriotic man, and a tiger, wolf, jackal, and leopard who wants to do evil!”
Grand Tutor Chu's tone became aggressive, and his eyes shone brightly. He stared at Wei Zhongxian's eyes as if he wanted to penetrate his heart.
Wei Zhongxian was stunned again. He didn't expect Elder Chu's questions to be so tricky and strange. He was probably the only one in the world who dared to ask such disrespectful questions.
Wang Cheng's expression changed as well. As for Huang Jing, he looked at Elder Chu with fear and evasiveness in his eyes.
"I am!"
Wei Zhongxian's answer was only two words, but it was firm and decisive.
"You're not!"
Elder Chu spoke again, still aggressive.
"I am!"
Wei Zhongxian's answer was still resolute and decisive. At this moment, Grand Tutor Chu smiled.
"Hahahaha…"
No one knew what he was laughing about. Wei Zhongxian didn't know before.
Huang Jing was indeed right, this Grand Tutor of the three dynasties was indeed eccentric!
"Alright, I have one last question. Once you answer this question, I will naturally know who you are.”
