Chapter Seventy-Six: Coca Tea

Early the next morning, the emperor swore the next day.

After a night of poisoning by the Three Highnesses, at the end of the next day, everyone in the Friends Society came to the arena full of energy.

This may seem like a contradictory description, but when you think about it, it makes so much sense.

After all, although the tea of the Third Highness is delicious, the taste of the trial works is mostly terrible, but even if the tea is bad, it will not decay if it has the same basic function, and sometimes it will even be slightly enhanced.

Its name is called awakening and refreshing.

Seeing His Royal Highness walking into the arena with an expressionless face as usual, Ge Sheng asked Ao Xuehua worriedly: "President, the one that was decided in the end should be fine." ”

Ao Xuehua smiled slightly: "If it is an ordinary opponent, then I would say that there is an eighty percent chance of winning, but if the other party is Christie, I can only hope that Her Majesty the Empress will show mercy." ”

Ge Sheng was incredulous: "Why? The cooking method of the Third Highness is not a subtle technique that has never been recorded in any of the classics, and even then there is no chance of victory? “

Ao Xuehua looked helpless: "Do you remember what I said to you on the first night?" Today you will probably know how far that guy has gone astray in the past three years. ”

Ye Qing turned his head and looked at Ao Xuehua: "Could it be that this time you can only admit defeat in advance?" ”

Ao Xuehua shook her head: "That's not it." ”

Seeing Ye Qing breathe a sigh of relief, Ao Xuehua continued with a smile: "We can also pray to the heavens for a miracle to happen. ”

On the field, the Third Highness herself was not too nervous, to be precise, her expression was no different from usual, she just stood there as usual, waiting for other people's instructions.

Instructions on starting.

On the other side, Christie looked at each other, and finally had a little indescribable taste in her smile: "Sure enough, it was you who came to participate in the imperial oath, although I had already guessed it, but when I really saw you, I still felt very honored." ”

The Third Highness listened to the other party's words, and finally just replied calmly.

Although it was said to be a public appearance, the girl was still dressed as usual, the wide mage robe covered all her body and most of her appearance, and only the glossy white chin and bright red lotus-like hair color could be seen through the corner of the hood.

But equally, most of the people present who knew of her existence did not need to witness her face, and those who did not know about her could never see the truth under that simple hood.

"I don't see the future, though." Christie still said slowly to the Third Highness: "But from what I have seen in the past, your time is really running out, I regret but respect you, if it weren't for this occasion, I still have a lot of questions I want to ask you, as well as some things that maybe only I can help you solve." ”

"But before that, let's complete this imperial oath."

The Third Highness bowed slightly, and ended with an "um" again with no emotion.

And on the referee's bench, Lin Xi finally spoke, and his words were calm: "The two of you can start." ”

On the field, the workbench next to the Third Highness is completely different from the one used by Xiang yesterday, not only from the perspective of size, but also the type of equipment is completely different, in short, it is a variety of devices that can assist in making drinks, as Christie initially introduced, this is indeed a changeable arena that can be used for four different imperial oaths by replacing the workbench above.

However, as he had practiced last night, His Highness did not use the well-equipped equipment, but calmly took out a round crystal vessel and a small bag of black-wrapped tea leaves from the unknowable place, simply put the tea leaves into the vessel, filled it with water, and did not do anything more.

On the other side, Christie took out one after another things of different sizes similar to covered tea bowls, put a pinch of tea leaves into the covered bowl at a time, and when she finally finished, she looked up and casually glanced at the Third Highness, and couldn't help but show a look of surprise: "Coca tea? ”

The Third Highness did not answer, but continued to stand there, motionless.

Offstage, Ye Qing looked at Ao Xuehua curiously: "She even knows coca tea?" ”

Ao Xuehua smiled: "You should ask how many things in this world she doesn't know." ”

On the referee's seat, Ye Luan watched His Royal Highness remain motionless after putting his black tea leaves into the crystal vessel, and after hearing Christie say the name of the tea, he couldn't help but ask Carrotes beside him curiously: "Isn't the senior sister making cold brew tea?" What is the connection with coca tea? ”

Carrotes smiled slightly: "Because the tea used by the senior sister is coca tea." ”

Ye Luan covered her mouth slightly, obviously she had also heard of the reputation of this tea: "Isn't this a tea that is said to be highly poisonous?" It must be boiled for three days and three nights to eliminate the toxicity. ”

"Then why, did the senior sister choose this tea under the title of Tea Without Fire?"

Carrot smiled and replied, "Because this tea is really delicious." ”

"But soaking in cold water like this will only make the toxins accumulate more and more, even if the senior sister violates the topic and heats it up and boils, our time limit is far from enough to eliminate the toxicity for three days and three nights, so if you say it, as long as the senior sister chooses this kind of tea, it is equivalent to saying that she automatically admits defeat." Ye Luan said softly.

Carrotes stretched out his hand and gently pointed at Christie, who was working hard directly below, and let Ye Luan look at the other party's dark chestnut short hair and capable and simple white gown: "Because the opponent is this Alayya, if you don't choose this extreme tea to fight, then no matter what delicious and rare tea is, it will not be the enemy of the other party, I think your sisters and sisters are thinking about this, and they will finally choose this one among these many plans to fight." ”

Ye Luan tilted her head, even Princess Xian, in this unfamiliar realm, had to turn to Carrotes: "But what is the difference between using this kind of tea under this kind of rule and committing suicide?" ”

Carrotes smiled, lightly drew a circle on the table with his hand, and then said: "Of course it is different, although it is also suicide, but it is like when he hanged himself, kicking off the wooden stake of his feet, and at the same time, holding a dagger in his hand that can separate the cloth curtain, although he came to die, but in the end there is a glimmer of life." ”

Saying this, Karotes continued to speak inexplicably: "Although Her Royal Highness the Princess is not an official student of the Ye Ye Academy, let alone the head of the three major societies, you should not know about the secret at the bottom of the Ye Tower, according to convention, but if I guess correctly, Her Royal Highness the Princess should have already entered it." ”

Ye Luan raised his head and looked seriously at this former genius who was always cynical, and then nodded slowly: "The teacher took me there." ”

Carrotes smiled: "So, I wonder if the princess remembers the content of the first subsection of the third chapter of the sixth volume of the "Notes on the Moon?" ”

Ye Luan closed her eyes and looked back carefully, she was called Princess Xian, so naturally there was a reason for Princess Xian.

When the blue-haired princess opened her eyes, the light in her eyes was uncanny and full of anticipation.
