Chapter 76: Ling'er, Is Such a Possibility Exists?
When Mama Shen saw it, she subconsciously shook her head: "Back to the Queen Mother, you are not dazzled, and the slave maid also looks, there are light green marks on the tips of your fingers." ”
Bai Yueling also echoed: "Yes, the fingertips of the Queen Mother, after crushing the tea leaves, have indeed left some of the color on the tea leaves. ”
It stands to reason that the dried tea leaves should not have any moisture, even if they are crushed, they will not be like this.
The Queen Mother frowned instantly, could it be that there is really a problem with this tea?
Not only that, but is there a problem in the entire system of paying tribute to tea into the palace?
And just when the Queen Mother was puzzled, Mama Shen stood aside, as if she suddenly remembered something, and mentioned: "By the way, the Queen Mother, the slave maid heard the little plum who sent the tea before, and it has been raining in the south for days recently, and this tea is afraid that it has entered the moisture, right?" ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she reacted instantly, and hurriedly turned her head and asked Bai Yueling: "Ling'er, is it possible to do this?" ”
Bai Yueling subconsciously shook her head: "Queen Mother, even if this tea is contaminated with moisture on the way to the capital, it is impossible to fade." ”
Could it be that someone is really seeking personal gain, corrupting the law?
The Queen Mother's face sank instantly, and her eyes became solemn.
But Bai Yueling knew very well that if there was no conclusive evidence, the matter would definitely be settled, and she would also be charged with nonsense and dealt with.
Therefore, she must make the Queen Mother 100% believe that there is a problem with this batch of tea that is paid tribute to the palace.
And this batch of so-called "new tea" looks brightly colored, and it is obvious that something unknown has been added, and as for whether that thing is harmful to the human body, I don't know at all?
And in general, chronic poisoning does not manifest itself so quickly, and the current season is also the time when new tea is first launched in early spring.
However, if we can determine the origin and quantity of this batch of "new tea" sent to the palace, it can also be proven.
Thinking about it, Bai Yueling asked: "Queen Mother, I wonder if Ling'er can inquire about the amount of this batch of tea sent to the palace, and where is the origin?" ”
The specific situation, the Queen Mother is not very clear, she turned her head to look at Shen Mama, Shen Mama immediately replied: "This batch of tea was only sent to the palace the day before yesterday, the Queen Mother is thirty catties here, and the saint is fifty catties there, it is said that because the time is still early, many new teas have not yet been harvested, so the total amount is not very much." ”
After a pause, Mama Shen said again: "As for the origin of tea, I heard that it is Hangzhou Mansion. ”
There are only 80 catties of tea in total, and the total amount is so small, there is no way to judge whether it is new tea or old tea?
So, to make the Queen Mother believe her own statement, do you still need a more authoritative explanation, such as a more authoritative person?
Bai Yueling thought like this, hesitated for a while, and a name suddenly popped up in his mind: Lu Xiao!
This person is a descendant of Lu Yu, and has a very high prestige in this capital, and it is rumored that this person does not like the powerful, does not tend to be inflammatory, and only tells the truth in terms of tea!
If you can invite him to come, then the Queen Mother will definitely believe what she says.
Thinking of this, Bai Yueling did not hesitate for a moment, and suggested: "It is better to let Ling'er recommend someone to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother can determine if there is a problem with this batch of tea as soon as the Queen Mother asks?" ”
