Chapter 13 Tea Tasting

In addition to being able to sleep, salted fish must also be able to eat, and in addition to being able to eat, they must also be able to sleep.

Su Xi picked up a piece of pastry and ate it.

Mai Sui made tea while giving his master a look.

However, her eyeballs were about to fall out of her sockets, and Su Xi didn't raise her eyes to look at her at all, just buried her head in eating snacks.

In the blink of an eye, there were only a few empty plates left on the table.

The queen stared at the empty plates, and her jaw dropped to the ground.

She had never seen such a person who could eat.

It's the first time she's seen such a woman who can eat.

The other palace maids who were waiting in the courtyard were also surprised.

"Concubine Su is quite edible."

As she spoke, the queen frowned and drank her tea.

"Anything else? I can still eat. ”

Su Xi took the handkerchief handed over by Mai Sui and wiped the pastry residue on his hands.

"Mother, the small kitchen is still cooking."

Mai Sui pursed her lips and whispered.

Su Xi's white and slender fingers were like green onions, glowing with crystal clear light in the hot sun.

When the queen caught a glimpse of those hands, her heart began to sour again.

The woman who amazed the whole of Kyoto was eclipsed by the moment she saw it just now.

When she came from Changle Palace, she deliberately picked out the most colorful clothes and dressed them up carefully.

And this girl is dressed in plain clothes, without powder, and when the four eyes meet, the confidence set off by the gorgeous clothes is gone.

"In the future, our sisters will be a family, you have just entered the palace, if you need anything, just open your mouth to the palace."

"This palace also brought you a meeting gift today."

The queen calmed down and gave a look to the maple leaf standing beside her.

According to the etiquette, today it should be Su Xi who went to Changle Palace to ask her for peace.

But the Queen Mother exempted Su Xi from going to Yongshou Palace to ask for peace, she must not be interested.

Therefore, she bent down to this Qingle Palace, and specially prepared a gift.

When the other concubines first entered the palace, they categorically did not have this kind of treatment, and Su Guifei was an exception.

Moreover, she also wanted to know if the emperor had ...... last night

Maple stepped forward and gently placed the box in his hand on the table.

Su Xi looked at the box and then at the queen.

"What's delicious?"

Queen: "......"

Other palace maids: "......"

"Niangniang, the slave maid will put it back in the house for you to collect it, the things sent by the queen mother are valuables, but you have to put them away carefully."

Mai Sui carefully picked up the box and held it in his arms, and then turned to leave.

She was afraid that the master would say something wrong after a while, and the queen would be unhappy.

When the master had not yet entered the palace, the ladies in the palace were judging her behind her back.

Now that she has entered the palace as a concubine, those ladies may be red-eyed.

The master can't be pinched by anyone.

Seeing that the wheat ears took the box away, Su Xi Ba'er pouted.

I can't eat valuables, so I don't have much interest.

It's just that the queen sat here and sipped the tea calmly, as if she had no intention of leaving.

I want to sleep so sleepy, I want to sleep when I'm full....

It's not good to go directly, Su Xi also picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip of hot tea.

"Wow, what kind of tea is this?"

After just one bite, I felt that all my internal organs were soaked in a sweetness.

This ancient tea is fucking addictive to drinking.

The queen paused the teacup in her hand, and she stared at Su Xi suspiciously.

Su Xi carefully looked at the cup in her hand, and did not notice that the queen's strange eyes were fixed on her face.

After a moment of silence, the queen spoke leisurely.

"This is from the ancient tree of Bangdong sun-red, the soup color is translucent, the tea base is clean, the entrance is sweet, and the aroma is long-lasting."

"How could Concubine Su not know what kind of tea this tea is, this tea is a tribute from Bangdong last year, and the Queen Mother gave a lot to the Hou Mansion."

Speaking of which, the queen's heart was sour again.

This ancient tree is extremely rare, and it is said that after the queen mother and the emperor each keep a share, Changle Palace can also get a share.
