Ji Tang

Chapter 58 Princess Aunt
On the street of Changlefang on the edge of the imperial city, three knights riding tall horses walked slowly.

When the concierge of Princess Princess Palace saw the leader, he was immediately overjoyed. He gave instructions to the others and ran forward.

"Brother Song, you are finally here. The princess has been asking you to come these past few days!"

After taking the reins handed over by Ji Song, the porter said to Ji Song.

"Think of me? You don't have to just scold me."

"How is that possible? It's too late for the princess to love you, so how can she scold you!" the concierge replied.

He didn't dare to say that the princess had been waiting for Ji Song to come to her house these days, and often scolded her for being heartless, but he didn't dare to say this.

"You guys go and have a rest!" Ji Song ignored the concierge's compliment. How could he not know what his aunt's temper was like?Just said to Daniel and Lao Er.

Ji Song has been to Pingyang Princess Mansion many times. As the eldest princess of this empire and a hero among women who made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan will certainly not treat her badly.

Half of the entire Changlefang is the eldest princess's mansion, which is terrifyingly large.

Ji Song walked in from the side door. With her status at the front door, only Li Yuan was qualified.

After entering, the first thing you see is a huge shadow wall, erected in the center of the door, making it impossible for people to see what's going on inside from the door.

Above it is a relief sculpture of a phoenix soaring into the sky, which is so lifelike that it seems to have come alive.

Before Ji Song could cross the shadow wall, a hoarse female voice came. Although it was not gentle, it had a heroic spirit that could not be concealed at all.

"Boy Ji, you still know how to come to my place? I'm afraid you've forgotten me, my aunt, right?"

Ji Song didn't dare to be negligent when he heard this. If he didn't pay attention, he would be beaten.

So, I quickly walked forward.

When he saw Princess Pingyang, Ji Song almost didn't recognize her.

"Princess, what's going on? Why are you so thin?"

Ji Song really couldn't believe that the heroic girl among the girls who used to be heroic has now become like this.With her thin figure, yellow complexion, and sunken eye sockets, who would dare to believe that this was Princess Pingyang who once dominated the world.

"What did you call me?" She didn't care about Ji Song's question, but she was very concerned about Ji Song's name for her. She looked at Ji Song with evil eyes. Ji Song believed that if she didn't answer well, she would definitely be beaten. It can't be run away.

"Forehead!"

"Auntie!"

"Hey, this is right!" Princess Pingyang stepped forward and touched Ji Song's head, saying happily.

Ji Song wanted to leave her clutches, but when he saw the look in her eyes, he still chose to follow his heart.

"Come on, come in with me. There is no one else today. The two boys went into the palace to help arrange the banquet. Your uncle also went to guard the safety of the palace." She pulled Ji Song and said as she walked, without treating him as an outsider at all.

In fact, from Ji Song's point of view, my aunt is not beautiful, she can only be described as decent.

No flaws, but nothing amazing either.

But the heroic spirit in her body cannot be matched by anyone.

This added a lot of color to her, especially the innate noble temperament, which made people forget his ordinary appearance.

Princess Pingyang did not take him to the living room, but to a pavilion facing the lake.

The two sat down separately as guest and host. At the same time, a lady came forward to prepare sencha, with various condiments placed beside it, including milk, spices, etc.

"Wait a moment," Ji Song seemed to have thought of something and stepped forward to stop him.

"What's wrong?" Princess Pingyang asked in confusion. "Auntie, today I will show off my skills and let you taste my craftsmanship." Ji Song took the teapot from the maid's hand, waved her hand to retreat, and said to Li Xiuning.

Although Princess Pingyang didn't know what tricks her cheap nephew wanted to play, she felt a little hopeful for a moment when she thought of his past magic.

"Then I'll wait and see. If you can't make me happy, boy, just wait!" Princess Pingyang threatened.

Ji Song ignored her threat and just concentrated on manipulating the tea set.

Seeing Ji Song's smooth and unhurried movements, her impatient heart gradually calmed down.

Ji Song first boiled a pot of water and carefully put the tea leaves into the teapot with wooden tweezers.Slowly pour the boiling water into the teapot, and a fragrance comes.

Looking at Ji Song's unique method of making tea, Princess Pingyang was full of doubts. Is such tea really drinkable?

No matter what she thought, Ji Song's movements were still so slow and slow, as if they could calm people's hearts.

He poured out the first cup of tea, then refilled it with water. After two times in a row, he stopped after nodding three times at the last cup.

"Please!" Ji Song put a cup in front of Princess Pingyang and said with a smile.

Princess Pingyang didn't say anything. After looking at Ji Song, she picked up the tea in front of her and was about to finish it in one gulp.

"Auntie, wait a minute!"

Seeing Princess Pingyang's confused look, Ji Song also picked up the tea cup in front of him, but he didn't drink it all.

Instead, I smelled it on the tip of my nose, then drank it slowly, and finally closed my eyes. When the fragrance in my mouth was gone, I put down the quilt and signaled to my aunt that it was okay.

Although Princess Pingyang was confused, she still did as she was told. When he smelled the fragrance, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Slowly pouring the tea into her mouth, she frowned, the taste was a bit bitter.

But soon a sweetness came over her, causing her to close her eyes involuntarily and savor the refreshing taste.

"Good! It's no longer as strong and complicated as before, but it has a fresh and far-reaching artistic conception.

It is bitter at first and then sweet, just like life, making people fall asleep in it involuntarily.

How did you think of it? It’s so amazing! "

Princess Pingyang happily said to Ji Song that this was something she had never experienced before.

It's like being in a quiet mountain forest, forgetting all worries, and feeling a sense of tranquility and remoteness, filled with the artistic conception of being indifferent to fame and fortune, making people linger and unable to extricate themselves!

“In the past, my family was not rich and had no conditions, so we just boiled the food in boiling water and drank it.

However, the original flavor of the tea was not retained at all. Once I just brewed it with boiling water, I didn't expect it to have a different taste.

So, I slowly figured out this method of making tea, but if I want to get better, I have to work on the tea itself, which I haven't figured out yet. Ji Song said.

"You are really capable of becoming famous in anything you do. I dare to say that your method of brewing tea will definitely be loved by those literati and will be spread in the future.

If you come up with a better way to make tea by then, this will be another way to make a fortune.

Sometimes, I really want to open your head and see what's going on inside, why are you so obsessed with it? "

Princess Pingyang moved Ji Song's head and looked at it, as if she really wanted to study it carefully.

Ji Song calmly moved his body back and vowed to stay away from this dangerous person in the future. He would study people's heads at every turn, and no one could stand it!
But he still said: "Actually, it's nothing, I just like to think about it!"
