Chapter 123:
"The queen mother, the crown princess mother. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" The steward eunuch Sun Dingying led the two little eunuchs to kneel down tremblingly.
In the eyes of the queen, these three people are just three ants, and ants don't need to be formal.
However, Li Chengxiu can't have this attitude, although she is the second most noble woman in the world after the queen, she is still a newcomer.
There is a way that it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain, and many of the eunuchs she knows are not very noble.
Therefore, Li Chengxiu did not dare to underestimate these eunuchs, and of course he was not too kind.
Raising his hand, Li Chengxiu said gently: "Get up." The palace wants to cook tea for the father and the queen mother, and I also ask you to help. ā
"It's an honor for the old slave. Sun Dingying responded in a panic, quickly stood up, and led the two little eunuchs who were also rickety into the house with Li Chengxiu.
From the outside, this teahouse doesn't seem to be big, but once you enter it, you feel that there is a cave.
A few maules divide the room into several spaces, the outermost of which resembles a reception room, with the rest room of the eunuch on duty to the left and a door to the right. Entering through the door is a storage room of more than 20 square meters, with two rows of shelves facing north and south in the middle of the room, and cabinets along the four walls of the wall. Although it was in the middle of the room, the light in the room was excellent, and when I looked up, I saw a few skylights leaking through the roof, and the brilliant spring color poured into the house through the skylights.
Entering through the small door on the south side of the storeroom, it was another scene.
There is a platform more than three meters wide outside the small door, four or five steps forward to the door is a three-level step, under the steps is a large operation room, which has a shelf with utensils, there are also lockers, and a huge board as an operating platform, and then there is a wall, along the root of the wall is a row of large and small stoves, these stoves have different textures, different colors, some can be moved, some are fixed there, but I don't know what to do.
"The queen mother, the crown princess mother, these two stoves are burning, and the water is just boiling. Sun Dingying stepped forward and pointed to two of the fixed stoves with copper kettles, and the copper stoves on them were really steaming.
"You just have to tell the crown princess that this palace is here to accompany you. The queen brushed her sleeves and said, and the little eunuch with an organic spirit hurriedly brushed the dust on the couch next to her and invited the queen to sit down.
"Queen Mother, what kind of tea do you want to drink?" Li Chengxiu asked the queen with a smile as she looked at the fire and utensils.
"Whatever you want, you can drink whatever tea you cook for this palace. The queen said casually.
behaves casually, but it's really embarrassing, things in this world, I'm afraid of the word casual.
Li Chengxiu sighed, glanced at the locker, and saw that one of the compartments was marked with the word "peach blossom", so he smiled and said, "Why don't you make you a cup of peach blossom tea?"
The queen felt strange and asked, "Why peach blossoms?"
"Because it's the right time!" Mr. Lee said.
Hearing this, the queen said, "Okay!"
In fact, the more important reason is that the queen now has a pair of blistered eyes, and the peach blossoms are treating her symptoms, which is conducive to bowel and bowel movements, and has the effect of treating edema.
I don't know if the queen will agree so happily if she knows this reason.
Li Chengxiu inadvertently found that the queen's eyes were always glued to her, and she didn't know if she was stealing the teacher or preventing her from poisoning!
While operating smoothly in his hands, Li Chengxiu's brain began to diverge unlimitedly, what kind of murder, arson, and corpse burning, what poisoning and planting dirt in tea......
It's just a cup of tea, where is it and how much time does it take?
Although for the sake of this kind of tea-making skills, Li Chengxiu deliberately made some fancy moves and added some flashy procedures, but it didn't take more than two or three minutes.
It seems that in the blink of an eye, a bowl of gorgeous and gorgeous peach blossom tea was brewed, and Li Chengxiu put his hands in front of the queen: "Please taste it from the queen mother." ā
The queen's half-closed eyes slowly opened: "It's pleasing to the eye." Elegantly took the white porcelain tea bowl, took a small sip, only to feel that a fragrance instantly overflowed his mouth, and then went straight to the spiritual platform, and the smile that was businesslike was much more sincere: "The taste is also very good." ā
"It's still honey. Lee Sung-so explained.
"Well, let's cook it for the emperor and the crown prince. The queen nodded and said that Li Chengxiu was busy, and asked her what kind of tea to make, and the queen said: "You can do it yourself." ā
That's it again!
Li Chengxiu was angry, what a waste of her "begging".
But what can be done?
I don't have to think about it and take some risks.
Li Chengxiu carefully recalled everything he had seen the emperor, he seemed to be taking medicine, and it had not been long since he had taken it......
Since you are taking medicine, then the tea can not be put away, the tea has the effect of detoxification and detoxification, which will reduce the effect of the medicine.
Seeing the emperor this time, he obviously felt that he had a lot more white hair, and his complexion was much older, although he was smiling on his face, there was no smile in his eyes, and even if he occasionally smiled in his eyes, it was still shallow on the top, not deep bottom......
Thinking about this, Li Chengxiu had a flash of inspiration, and after thinking about it, it was it!
"Father-in-law may have found a few sour jujube Ren'er for the palace?" Li Chengxiu called Sun Dingying and asked.
"Sour jujube Ren'er?" Sun Dingying was stunned for a moment, and thought hard: "The old slave doesn't have it here, but the imperial pharmacy definitely has it." ā
"The Imperial Pharmacy is too far away to be in time. Li Chengxiu shook his head when he heard this, his eyes swept around the locker twice, and suddenly saw two more words: Longan! "Quick, take down the top longan for me." ā
Sun Dingying looked in the direction pointed by Li Chengxiu, and sure enough, he saw a lattice with the word "longan" written on it, and hurriedly moved the ladder to climb up himself, and took off the longan for Li Chengxiu.
Sun Dingying helped Li Chengxiu to remove the shell of a few longans and keep the meat, Li Chengxiu washed them, put them in a sand bowl with rock sugar, mixed them with boiling water, and put the sand bowl on the stove to cook slowly. After waiting for a little three minutes, Li Chengxiu ordered the sand bowl to be taken out and filled with a green jade bowl.
"Okay?" When the queen saw Li Chengxiu put the green jade bowl in the tray, she stood up and swept it into the tray, but smiled: "Why is there only one lamp?
"The prince's is not easy?" Li Chengxiu winked mischievously at the queen, picked up a white porcelain bowl, grabbed a poke of tea leaves and threw it in, lifted the kettle and poured boiling water into it. "Alright. ā
Queen: "You're too perfunctory about the prince's tea, aren't you?"
"No. Li Chengxiu said with a smile.
