Chapter 294: Chatting
Su Shanyun looked at Deng Ailian quietly.
Deng Ailian began to make tea after pouring a cup of tea for Su Shanyun.
Su Shanyun is also familiar with the steps of making tea, but after watching Deng Ailian's tea, she has to admit that her movements are far less pleasing to the eye than Deng Ailian.
Sure enough, he is a person who has been immersed in the palace for many years, and he can do such an ordinary thing as making tea so meticulously, Su Shanyun couldn't help but praise it secretly in his heart. And her gestures when making tea also made Su Shanyun amazed and shocked.
Deng Ailian took a sip of the freshly brewed tea and said, "Well, this is brewed with mountain spring water." ”
"Can you drink that?" Su Shanyun asked curiously. In fact, she also knows that good tea is inseparable from good water, but she just can't tell the water quality.
"Mountain spring water is water that has been purified by the mountain itself, so the water quality is particularly clear and translucent, and the taste of drinking is also very sweet and sweet." Deng Ailian said with a smile.
Su Shanyun then took a few sips of tea, and felt that it was indeed sweeter and softer than the water used at home. ”
"I can feel it when you say that." Su Shanyun said with a smile.
"However, mountain spring water is not the best water for making tea, the best is snow water. The ancients called snow water 'Heavenly Spring', and the tea brewed from it is wonderful. Deng Ailian said.
Su Shanyun hurriedly asked her for advice on how to make tea in snow water.
"It all starts with the collection of snow water. The snow water in the city cannot be drunk, so you need to collect the unpolluted snow in the forest and bury it in an urn for more than three years......," Deng Ailian explained to Su Shanyun with a smile.
Su Shanyun felt that there was a lot of truth in her words, so she wrote them down one by one in her heart.
"Does the emperor often drink tea made in snow water?" Su Shanyun asked again.
"Nope. The snow water we store is usually only enough for him to drink for a month or two, so he drinks tea made from mountain spring water most of the time. However, this is already much more elaborate than what the average person drinks. Deng Ailian said.
"That's right." Su Shanyun nodded.
Most people just boil the water commonly used at home and soak it, and few people are in the mood to pursue such elegant things.
However, Su Shanyun felt that Deng Ailian's taste was very good, so she was curious about her daily life.
"Living in the palace and eating and wearing clothes like most people, can you get used to it with your character?" Su Shanyun asked.
"Of course I get used to it, but I will regulate myself in private, such as reading a book, making a cup of tea, going for a walk, etc." Deng Ailian said.
She is a person who can make her life taste no matter what the environment.
Su Shanyun noticed that Deng Ailian always had a quiet and pleasant smile on her face when she spoke or didn't speak, and she felt like it inexplicably, so she asked curiously: "I have worked by the emperor's side for so many years." The emperor did not ...... Notice you? ”
Deng Ailian immediately understood what Su Shanyun meant. Her face turned red, and she said shyly: "No, we don't have that kind of relationship, I still like to be a female officer a little more." ”
"But what about him?" Su Shanyun asked in a low voice.
Su Shanyun knows: as long as it is outstanding enough. Female officials also have the possibility of being promoted by the emperor as concubines.
"Many years ago, the emperor tried me. I answered him with a poem......" Deng said with a smile.
"It's strange to say. I thought my attitude would anger him, but then he treated me politely and became more and more trustworthy. Deng Ailian added.
Su Shanyun suddenly became interested. He asked, "Can you read that poem to me?" ”
Deng Ailian's face turned red all of a sudden. Said shyly: "I did it myself, I'm really embarrassed to show my ugliness in front of you, but that's not something to say......"
"You're amazing!" Su Shanyun gave her a thumbs up when she heard this.
Immediately, Su Shanyun pretended not to understand and asked, "Do you often meet with the emperor?" ”
Deng Ailian immediately heard the tentative meaning in her words, and hurriedly lowered her voice and said: "No, we only see the emperor on specific occasions and times, and it is his father-in-law who has the most contact with the emperor on weekdays. ”
Su Shanyun nodded in understanding, and then changed the topic.
After chatting for a while, Deng Ailian said: "If you want to know about the emperor, you can ask your second uncle, I don't know more than him." ”
Su Shanyun smiled again and nodded.
"There is a small art gallery not far from the next door, which has a large collection of paintings by famous artists, I heard that you like painting very much, do you want to go there to see it?" Deng Ailian asked.
Su Shanyun already liked to visit the art gallery very much, so when he heard it, he was interested, and when he saw that it was still early, he said, "Okay, then you will lead the way." ”
Deng Ailian then went out of the bosom friend teahouse with her.
Since Su Shanyun listened to Yan Jinxuan's explanation, she brought three strong and strong followers in addition to Mama Song today, so she was not very scared even when she was walking on the street.
Deng Ailian walked side by side with her respectfully all the way, which made Su Shanyun a little embarrassed.
However, thinking that the other party is a person who has lived in the environment of the palace for a long time, and knowing that the other party will never allow the slightest loophole in his words and deeds, he is also relieved.
Of course, because of the other party's respect and restraint, Su Shanyun also had to become cautious.
The name of the gallery is 'Vientiane', and it makes people feel wonderful when they hear it, so Su Shanyun can't help but feel refreshed.
Su Shanyun and Deng Ailian stopped in front of the famous paintings one by one, occasionally exchanging a few words of opinion in a low voice, and it was already afternoon when they finished viewing all the paintings inside.
The two walked out of the gallery satisfied.
When they walked to the west side of the square in front of the gallery, Deng Ailian said goodbye to Su Shanyun.
"Nice to meet you! I had a great day. Deng Ailian looked at Su Shanyun and said sincerely.
"Me too, and hopefully we'll meet again next time we have time." Su Shanyun smiled and shook her hand.
"Good times always go by so fast!" Deng Ailian said reluctantly.
"Yes. But it doesn't matter, we'll have a chance to meet in the future. Su Shanyun said.
So Deng Ailian said goodbye to her.
After seeing Deng Ailian get into the carriage she beckoned, Su Shanyun and Mama Song and the three entourages walked to their carriage parking.
That's not a short journey.
Because their carriage was parked at the bosom friend teahouse.
However, Su Shanyun enjoyed such a walk in the afternoon. The sun shone on her youthful face, warm and powerful, making her feel very comfortable. The flowers and trees on both sides of the road have been pruned to show their artistic beauty, and she can't help but stop and go, for fear of missing any scenery.
Since it was a summer afternoon, the weather was relatively hot, so there were no pedestrians on the road. But Su Shanyun felt that this was very good. She's a quiet person.
However, when they turned the corner, they saw a few people walking in this direction not far ahead.
It was a path less than five feet wide, and it was unlikely that Su Shanyun would dodge, but Su Shanyun felt that she had no need to dodge, so she continued to walk her path, but her pace was slightly slower than before. (To be continued......)
