Chapter 128: The Queen's Reward

85_85563 The words of the eldest princess pushed Xia Qingyun to the forefront, saying no, not saying no, really in a dilemma. She had no choice but to put down the teacup, met the scrutinizing eyes of the two princesses, and said softly: "My name is Xia Qingyun, and I opened the Qingyun Tea Garden, this white silver needle"

She looked at the eldest princess, who raised her eyebrows at her, with a look of "see what you do" on her face.

"Baihao silver needle, I made it." After speaking, she lowered her head, the other party was the princess of the Great Qi Kingdom, and it was not a good thing to brush their faces in public.

The third princess's face turned from red to blue, and then from blue to white, and a small knife seemed to fly out of her eyes, swishing towards Xia Qingyun.

She deliberately showed off just now, and her voice was three points higher than usual, and the queen mother and queen heard it clearly, and Concubine Qing glanced at Mrs. Zhenguo resentfully.

The emperor canonized the lord of Taiping, Concubine Qing already knew, and she also sent someone to inquire about Xia Qingyun's name, but she didn't take it seriously, let alone tell her two daughters.

Soon after the tea ceremony was introduced to the capital, it was talked about by some scholars, regarded as an elegant cultivation, not only the utensils used were very exquisite, but also the people looked calm and elegant when making tea, and their bearing was noble.

In order to cultivate the temperament of the two princesses, Concubine Qing specially invited the female dependents of a minister from outside the palace to teach them the tea ceremony.

Who would have thought that the third princess would have to show off in public today, but the result was that the class got an axe, but she made herself ugly.

She blamed all this qiē on Mrs. Zhenguo, who was just a little maid, relying on her husband to make some contributions, and turned into a famous Mrs. Zhenguo, what made her most angry was Mrs. Zhenguo's wife.

Although she is a concubine. After all, there is still a queen pressing on it, and she, a former subordinate, can grasp the glory and wealth with her left hand, and a die-hard man with her right hand, living freely outside the palace!

I cursed Mrs. Zhenguo's mother and daughter one hundred and eighty times in my heart, but there was a ball of harmony on my face. smiled and said to Mrs. Zhenguo: "I didn't expect that the lord of Taiping County was actually the owner of Qingyun Tea Garden. This is a great thing, and the third princess also likes to study the tea ceremony, so it is better to let the county lord enter the palace often in the future. Tell them about it. ”

The queen also smiled: "This child is ingenious, I also like it tightly, and I will often come in the future to accompany the ancestors to relieve boredom." ”

Mrs. Zhenguo smiled. Concubine Shu, who had been sitting next to her and didn't open her mouth, suddenly asked: "I heard that there are many kinds of tea, and the four seasons vary according to the solar terms. But the palace often drinks only Baihao silver needles, I don't know this cold winter, but there are other teas that are delicious? ”

Xia Qingyun hurriedly got up and replied: "Back to Niangniang's words, what Niangniang said is very true. Although Baihao Silver Needle can be drunk in all seasons, it is best to drink some black tea in winter. ”

"Tell me about it. Let's also learn a long way. Concubine Shu smiled and waved the Jinpa, let her sit down.

Mrs. Zhenguo gave her an encouraging look. In order to let the Queen Mother hear clearly, Xia Qingyun let go of her voice and said: "Black tea is sweet and warm, generating heat and warming the abdomen, which can help the human body enhance its resistance to cold." And after winter, people love to eat greasy food, black tea can be greasy, appetizing and nourishing the stomach, so it is excellent. ”

Concubine Shu said with a smile: "I have eaten a lot of mutton these days, and I always feel that my belly is full, and when I hear you say this, I want to make some black tea to drink now." ”

"What is my sister anxious about, the lord of Taiping County is the owner of Qingyun Tea Garden, and I am afraid that there will be no good tea in the future." The queen smiled and took the brocade box handed over by the maid behind her, and took out a golden step with a shining east pearl inlaid on the top, and six small pearls entwined with gold wire underneath, luxurious and elegant, and delicate and chic.

She beckoned to Xia Qingyun and said, "Come here." ”

Xia Qingyun hurriedly got up and walked to the queen, Ying Ying bowed, the queen leaned back slightly and looked at it, raised her hand and inserted the golden step on Xia Qingyun's luoyun bun, and said with a smile: "Get up and let the ancestor see if it looks good." ”

Xia Qingyun's snow-white skin, against the backdrop of a bright red, looks white and red, when she goes out, Qingmei for her hairpin on the two pompom palace flowers, but also makes her look pink and lovely, now there is an extra golden step, not only does not feel cumbersome, but adds a bit of nobility in the cuteness.

"What you appreciate, how can there be anything that is not good-looking." The Queen Mother smiled and pulled Xia Qingyun to look left and right.

The queen smiled: "This is the tea money I paid in advance, Qingyun, don't forget to bring us some good tea next time." ”

Mrs. Zhenguo hurriedly said: "Niangniang is very loved, and the tea is needless to say, so what kind of tea money do you need." ”

"If you want it," the Queen Mother said, taking off a green jade bracelet from her wrist, taking Xia Qingyun's hand and putting it on, "Count me in as a point." ”

Xia Qingyun is so exquisite, how can he not know that the queen and the queen mother are just an excuse to give tea money, but in fact, they are doing it for Qing Guifei to warn her not to embarrass the Taiping county lord in the future.

It is not only a hospitality, but the excuse seems hypocritical, not to mention the reward of the queen mother and the queen, there is no reason to excuse it, she generously thanked her and returned to her seat.

The eldest princess sipped tea shallowly, looked ahead, and said without being salty: "The master of Taiping County is good-looking, this golden step is very suitable for you, speaking of which, you still have to thank the third princess, if she hadn't mentioned the tea ceremony, you wouldn't have been able to get this tea money." ”

"Thank you, Third Princess." Xia Qingyun turned sideways, nodded at her with a smile, and glanced at the eldest princess again, wondering in her heart, if she hadn't mentioned her name, she wouldn't have talked about Qingyun Tea Garden. The eldest princess's actions, is she helping herself, or is she embarrassed by herself?

The third princess didn't answer, and filled her mouth with a handful of dried fruits in a puff, and she almost burst into tears when she was sour.

The Queen Mother chatted happily at the table, and Concubine Qing seemed to have nothing happened, and from time to time she told a few jokes to make the Queen Mother happy, which made Xia Qingyun really admire her acting skills. These harem concubines, which one was placed in the previous life, are all first-class best heroines!

But the atmosphere at their table was very depressing, and the eldest princess called back her daughter Lord Anping, coaxed her to eat refreshments, and did not talk to others. The third princess and the fourth princess bit their ears head to head, and there was no Xia Qingyun next to them.

Xia Qingyun fell quietly, looking down at the teacup in front of him, but what he was thinking about was the Qingyunxuan Teahouse and the Fruit Forest Farm.

I finally heard the Queen Mother speak, saying that she was tired, so she would be here today, and wait for Mrs. Zhenguo to be idle another day, and then take Xia Qingyun into the palace.

After leaving the palace and transferring to the carriage, as soon as he got into the carriage, Xia Qingyun stroked his chest and sighed: "It can be regarded as liberation!" The queen asked me to come often, oh my God, I don't want to go into the palace to suffer. ”

"Where is this," Mrs. Zhenguo smiled and pestled her head, "You don't have to care about other people's words, they are just quick to speak, and if they want to move seriously, my mother will not agree to the first one!" ”

Xia Qingyun stuck out her tongue and leaned coquettishly on her mother's shoulder, "I know that my mother is protecting me, if someone bullies my mother, I won't agree!" (To be continued).
