Chapter one hundred and thirty-eight, the mountain is a ruler

The tea tasting party was set up in Guiyuan, and when Zhou Tianse and several people arrived, everyone had gathered together.

"Sit down, there are not so many rules in this palace." Zhou Tianse was in front, walking with his head raised and his eyes raised, one step behind left and right, accompanied by Zhou Tianyi and Zhou Tianmu, and then Wang Junting, Qin Song and Shen Suyu who followed together.

Although there were words put by Princess Changping, where the invited guests dared to sit before the high-ranking host, they all stood respectfully in place, bowed their heads slightly, and welcomed Her Royal Highness the princess and the two princes behind her with this kind of small courtesy.

When it comes to banquet seats, the order is very strict, and the wrong order is disrespectful to the superior.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Quartet has set the ranking rules for the rank of the official rank and the family background, but after a hundred years, this rule has been loosened. On top of the ordinary seats, the host of the banquet will also set up a close seat near his main seat, and the seating arrangement here is according to the host's preference.

Zhou Tianse arranged her three nephews on the left in turn, followed by Wang Huangzhi, Wang Junruo and Wang Junting, and her two brothers were placed on the right.

"Miss Ji, please come here." The attendant of the plum garden led Ji Wanyang to the last seat next to Zhou Tianse, and then bowed and retreated to the side.

Ji Wanyang was a little surprised, her identity was more embarrassing, no matter according to her grade or family, in fact, there would be no seat for her, so she was very embarrassed to stand by a few rows of tables. Unexpectedly, his seat was arranged in a corner of the guests specially entertained by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the seat near the main seat was distinguished from others by two wooden steps.

After taking a seat, Ji Wanyang looked left and right, and there was an empty table case between Wang Huangzhi, the concubine of the Wang family, and the queen of the Wang family, and I don't know who didn't come? And further up, they are all royal relatives. Being able to sit at the same table with people who were out of reach in the past, Ji Wanyang was excited and happy in her heart, if her father's unjust case could be overturned in the future, she would be the rightful county lord, not much worse than Zhou Tianse.

Ji Wanyang was fluttering there, and the laughter and conversation of Shen Suyu and Qin Song next to her interrupted her, she only then paid attention to the person sitting on her side, looked into the past, and finally fell on the woman in cuiyi closest to her, face sheng, she has recently made up for the list of powerful people in Beijing and Zhou, without this person, who is she and what is her identity? Why is the seat ahead of you?

Before she could ask, the waiter in the plum garden brought all kinds of tea sets, one set for every three to four tables, Ji Wanyang was stunned, looked around, and the other nobles looked eager to try, even Qin Song, who she had never taken seriously, also held her head and reached out to fiddle with the tea set a few times, not surprised at all.

Tea art, the tea art that must be practiced by women in the family, she ...... She won't!

Coincidentally, the three women sitting in her row had been placed with two sets of tea sets before, one of which was still in front of her. For a moment, Ji Wanyang felt that all the eyes in the audience were staring at her, who didn't know tea art at all, with different eyes, some ridicule, some contempt, some sarcasm, and countless eyes pierced her all over the world, and her heart was panicked.

"Sister Ji, like Bengong, is the daughter of the Queen Mother, so she will accompany Bengong and wait for tea. Someone came, and the tea set was removed. Zhou Tianse said softly and skillfully, blinking playfully in her eyes, as if this was not to relieve Ji Wanyang, but she wanted to do it willfully.

"Since Tianse said so, then I might as well obey my fate with respect." Ji Wanyang nodded, glad that Princess Changping had such a sudden idea, otherwise all her plans today would have failed.

She heard the private conversation between the Queen Mother and the Emperor with her own ears, and they all intended to make Zhou Xueli the crown prince under His Royal Highness, and they also wanted to abolish the marriage that had been set for Zhou Xueli before, and re-choose a good couple who could honor the world.

This kind of thing, if the queen mother and the emperor say it, can it be fake? Besides, His Royal Highness is dignified and polite, and he does have the demeanor of an emperor, and the few times she talked to him, her heart "thumped" straight up.

She is now the queen mother's daughter, and she has more opportunities to contact with several princes than others, she must seize every opportunity and not let herself fall behind others, she should have been the county lord surrounded by brocade clothes and jade food, and now she is flying on the branches, she ...... I don't want to go back to the hard days of being a peasant girl in the past, my brother can bear it, but she can't.

The tea party has begun, and the woman who is confident in her tea art will take the initiative to sit in front of the tea set, patiently doing the tea making process one by one, and there are more girls who are proficient in this art who bring their own tea sets. Zhou Tianse didn't mind that someone abandoned the tea set she prepared, no matter how good the royal utensils were, they couldn't compare to the ones she used well, she knew tea and understood it better.

"Jun Ting, your craftsmanship is still so good." There is only one woman on Wang Junting's side, and this matter of making tea can only fall on her head, facing the focused eyes of the three princes, her performance is probably the most calm and ...... among the women of the family Feel free to do it. Although Wang Junting's tea art is not as good as her piano skills, she has studied hard and practiced hard when she was a child, and it can be regarded as superior.

"It's my house, it's not good, it's good." Wang Junting joked with himself and replied, after serving tea to the three princes and his brother respectively, Wang Junting got up and went to the pile of people below with Zhou Tianse, fiddling with the tea set here is just to try her hands, she left, naturally there are waiters who are proficient in tea art on top, and they can't snub others.

Zhou Tianse smiled, it was not good to talk about Wang Junting again, and when she turned her head, she saw Yue Le'er who was knocking the tea set tinkling, her mouth was crooked, and she was busy pulling Wang Junting in the direction of the girl in red, "Le'er, will you let go of my tea set?" It's all knocking out, I'm distressed! ”

"Tianse, what are you talking about, my brother has forced me to learn this recently, today is my first time on the battlefield, you all have to taste it!" Yue Le'er raised her face and smiled, the movements in her hands were non-stop, and she really looked a little there, but the ruthless heavy-handed attitude of the tea set was a little miserable.

Above...... Battlefield? Did this girl fight this as a march?

And behind Yue Le'er, several children from the family of military generals looked at it, just waiting for the tea made by Miss Yue's family to be delivered to their hands, Zhou Tianse and Wang Junting looked at each other, Le'er's tea is good or not is secondary, she just has fun, anyway, there are people who are willing to accompany her, right?

Yue Le'er poured out a cup of tea, and it might take some time, and the two of them moved elsewhere. Zhou Tianse needless to say, Wang Junting has been mixed in this group since he was a child, whether he is friend or foe, he is her foundation, so no matter where the two run, they can talk.

Zhou Tianse only paid attention to Ji Wanyang a few words at the beginning of the tea party, after the tea set was opened, she saw that her face was embarrassed, and there were fine beads of sweat oozing on her forehead, her heart softened, so she said something to help her, who knew that this person not only didn't even say a word of thanks, but even her maiden name was shouted smoothly, her name can be called casually?

Without her repeated requests, it was Jun Ting and Sister Qin who also called her a princess.

Zhou Tianse's evaluation of Ji Wanyang has one more item - I don't know what to do.

The corner of her eyes glanced coldly at the direction where Ji Wanyang was, no matter how casual the guests were, they also understood the rules, and no one would walk up the two wooden steps without permission, which was the difference between dignity and inferiority.

And her three nephews are concentrating on asking the eldest brother of the monarch for advice, and their minds are not on the tea at all, and even more so on their own brother's side, the ninth brother and sister Qin don't know what they are playing, they are so stiff, they don't see Sister Qin making tea, and they don't see the ninth brother drinking tea, but the sixth brother and Sister Shen look sideways from time to time and smile...... Indescribable?

Zhou Tianse was curious, but at the moment, he only talked about a small part of the topic with the guests around him, and he couldn't leave, so he could only look at his ninth brother when he had the opportunity, squeezing his eyes and silently asking him what had happened.

Zhou Tianyi felt his sister's gaze, only glanced at her, and ignored the past, compared to Tianse, the one at hand was even more difficult to deal with.

"Let it go!" Qin Song, whose head was so low that it was almost level with the ground, shouted in a suppressed voice, full of annoyance, just now she had completely brewed a few cups of tea that could be eaten, and was about to "retire" like Wang Junting, but before she could stand up, her wrist was grabbed by Zhou Tianyi and she was not allowed to go!

"What are you doing!" Qin Song didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear of attracting the attention of others, she was close to Zhou Tianyi in the palace, but outside, especially in this public, she would definitely deliberately keep her distance from him.

"It's rare to see you brewing tea with your own hands, and you want to send me away with a cup?" Zhou Tianyi said with a smile, Qin Song's small actions are between daring and not daring, annoyed and not annoyed, the more so, the more interesting he feels. His hand reached on Qin Song's cuff, grabbing her thin wrist and motionless, the two looked at each other, one embarrassed and the other joking.

Qin Song's wrist was so cold and comfortable that he couldn't even help it, and rubbed his fingertips on her delicate wrist a few times.

Qin Song withdrew her hand as if frightened, but the strength of her and Zhou Tianyi was very different, and the wrists and hands that were frozen in mid-air did not move much at all, "Tianyi, don't play, let go of me, I, I'll make tea!" The temperature of Zhou Tianyi's palm is simply burning her, she feels hot everywhere, as long as the calloused palm moves slightly, the itchy and crispy touch spreads from the wrist to the whole body, as long as Zhou Tianyi makes a move, she is always unable to defeat in front of him, she only has to compromise.

"Okay." Holding the result at a stalemate, Zhou Tianyi responded softly, and his hand immediately let go.

The scorching heat faded, Qin Song's forearm trembled, and she felt empty in her heart, she unwillingly rubbed the wrist that was grabbed by Zhou Tianyi, obviously she couldn't move, but she didn't have any strength at all, and there was no discomfort at all.

"Reluctantly?" Qin Song's squirming appearance was too unusual, Zhou Tianyi was playful again, he asked with the tea set on the table, and his tone was frivolous.

Qin Song glared at Zhou Tianyi angrily and angrily, and the aura around his body gathered, rising and floating at a critical point of explosion, and it would make a bang at any time.

The bulging cheeks seem to be poked too much? Zhou Tianyi immediately surrendered, and added another word before the joke, not a question, but an affirmation, but said softly and softly, full of ambiguity, "I can't bear it." ”

Qin Song suddenly felt that he was being played by Zhou Tianyi again, and the man in front of him was getting bigger and bigger, and he was playing in this banquet hall with so many pairs of eyes, she could still talk to him on weekdays, but today he was simply slaughtered like this, thinking of this, Qin Song held back a breath in his heart.

The exquisite imperial tea set came into view, and she smiled as if she had triumphantly with the corners of her mouth raised.
