Hidden golden branches

Chapter 101 Loose Tea

Yun Man is wearing a persimmon-red face, four-happiness, and four-joy pattern. She has a pony topknot and some emerald hair. She had fair skin and a soft temperament. Yun Man said with a smile, "Mother is not going away. In the afternoon, Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Tang made an appointment with my mother to play horse hanging."

Tang is the wife of Xue Ruhai, the minister of household affairs, and a subordinate of Chen Youyu.

Yun Man originally didn't want to follow Qiu Lie. She was just worried about her daughter and was afraid that something might happen to her, so she followed to take care of Chen Rong.

Unexpectedly, it was more lively when I came to the hunting ground than at home, and the ladies got along with each other more easily than before. Every day, either this lady had an appointment with horse riding, or the other lady had an appointment with Pai Gow.

Yun Man played cards with her grandmother when she was a girl in her parents' home. She hadn't touched cards in more than 20 years and her hands were rusty. She had lost a lot of money in the past two days. Today she wanted to win. return.

Furthermore, she wanted to take this opportunity to look for a suitable girl for her son. In other words, you can tell a person's character by looking at her brand. You can also tell a girl's character by looking at her mother's brand. Almost eight.

With this mentality, Yun Man went to play cards with those ladies.

Chen Rong changed into a delicate and light coat like Xiangfei Honey and Moon White, and a horse-faced skirt embroidered with gold. This dress looked sweet and lively on her, but not too gorgeous.

Just a few steps after Chen Rong, Cuizhu and Songlin walked out of the tent, they met Miao Chaojin who had just returned from the hunting ground.

Needless to say, Miao Chaojin still rolled his eyes at Chen Rong, held a bow and arrow in his hand, and left with his little head held high.

Chen Rong had no choice but to shake his little head helplessly, wave his sleeves and walk towards the imperial concubine's tent.

The Imperial Guards and the Xiaohuangmen guarding the big tent did not stop Chen Rong when they saw her. The Xiaohuangmen also smiled at her and lifted the golden door curtain embroidered with dragon patterns, and bowed to invite Chen Rong in.

The green bamboos and pine trees were left outside the tent.

"Rong'er has met the imperial concubine's aunt." Chen Rong entered and saluted Chen Wanru, who was sitting at the rosewood tea table carved with magnolia and unicorn, drinking tea.

"Rong'er is here. Let's have a cup of tea first. Dinner will be served later." Chen Wanru's jade-white hands were holding an ice-cracked blue and white porcelain tea cup. She pinched the tea lid and skimmed the tea foam before bringing it to her mouth. Take a sip. He raised his head and smiled slightly at Chen Rong.

Chen Rong raised his little head and saw that the imperial concubine's aunt was wearing a silver-plated gold-plated jade-embellished butterfly pattern hairpin on her head. The style was very novel and the workmanship was extremely sophisticated. The body of the butterfly is carved from a piece of pink tourmaline, and its wings are inlaid with sapphires. The outer wings of the butterfly circle are made of millet beads arranged in a rhombus shape.

Look again at the golden silk inlaid orchid-dot emerald flower pouch tied around the waist of the imperial concubine's aunt. The upper and lower silk ropes are strung with coral beads, and the gold braided canopy head is dropped. The lower string is coral rice bead tassels, and the tassels are dropped by small drop-shaped jade pendants. .

Such exquisite jewelry is difficult to find even in the palace, and it is hard to buy it for a thousand dollars. I am afraid this is the only one in the world.

Chen Rong couldn't help but praise: "The imperial concubine's aunt is so beautiful today."

"Ahem," Chen Wanru glanced at Chen Rong with her phoenix eyes and said with a smile: "Rong'er, your little mouth is so sweet. Come and sit down quickly and try this Wuyi rock tea."

Wuyi rock tea comes from the Wuyi Mountain in Qixiu. It has a rich aroma, with the aroma of honey and flowers, and the taste is fresh and sweet.

Thanks to the blessing of the imperial concubine's aunt, Chen Rong is very blessed and has tasted all the best teas in the world.

"Okay." Chen Rong agreed cheerfully and sat on the wide chair made of rosewood carved with magnolia, unicorn and rosewood on Chen Wanru's right hand.

Chen Wanru then told Aunt Yang Ying, "Go and get another tea cup and pour it for Rong'er to taste."

"Yes, slave, go now." Aunt Yang Ying, wearing a pink cross-collar silk coat, blue armor, and two exquisite tortoise shells on her smooth bun, went to pick up the teacup from the imperial concubine's body. Chen Rong cleaned his hands in the blue and white porcelain basin held by the little palace maid. When Aunt Yang Ying fetched the sweet white porcelain embossed magpie branch teacup and placed it on the rosewood tea tray, she lifted the beam pot and removed the sweet white porcelain tea cup from the tea tray on the table. The porcelain embossed magpies are making noise on the branches, and the tea cups are pouring heat. This is a new tea ceremony that spread from the south more than 20 years ago and became popular in the capital city of the Wei Dynasty in recent years. It pays attention to the four words of harmony, tranquility, purity and silence.

Nowadays, people no longer drink Tuancha and foam tea. Nearly ten years after the founding of the Wei Dynasty, Taizu officially issued an edict to abolish the tribute of Tuancha and change the tea production to leaf tea, that is, loose tea. The method of loose tea is After decades of development and immersion by literati, Confucian scholars, tea drinkers, and poetry friends, Nanbianer gradually spread to the capital after it matured, completely replacing the previous style of tea ordering and tea fighting.

Chen Rong picked it up and raised it to the tip of his nose. Sure enough, his nostrils were filled with the aroma of tea, with a light floral fragrance. Take a sip and the tea tastes light and elegant, like the mountains after the rain. The aftertaste has a slightly sweet fruity aroma. It’s really good tea!

Seeing that it was already dinner time, Xiao Jingyan, the sixth prince who was planning to marry the sixth prince who had adapted to hunting in advance, was taken out by Chang Yuan and had not yet returned.

At this time, Eunuch Laifu, who was wearing a green satin round-neck cotton robe and a green jade beaded belt around his waist, gathered up his fly whisk, bowed his body and walked in quietly, went to Yun Man and reported in a low voice: "Go back to your Majesty, Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness." Prince Hou's smoking of prohibited substances is being dealt with, and it may not be over for a while."

"Ok?"

Chen Wanru was surprised, who would have the guts to smoke contraband nowadays?

She couldn't help but remember that after getting up in the morning, Mr. Cui came to ask the emperor for his decision.

Chen Wanru actually listened, because the Crown Prince Chengen wanted to do something inappropriate to Mr. Cui's daughter last night.

Forehead? Why has smoking become a banned substance again?

This Prince Chengen seems to be such a different person!

Is it possible that he wants to taint the minister's daughter?

If he couldn't get married, there would be another possibility, but not only did he have a royal concubine, but he also had about ten concubines and wives in the backyard of his home.

He was clearly making fun of the Cui family daughter, and he didn't care about pushing the girl to her death.

Chen Wanru hates these scoundrels who take pleasure in other people's innocence.

It's just that he, a dandy who likes to eat, drink and have fun, has the audacity to get involved in contraband. He doesn't know whether to live or die, and he doesn't think his life will be long.

I just don’t know what the prohibited items are, so I’ll find out when the emperor comes back.

Chen Wanru put down the ice-cracked blue and white porcelain tea cup in her hand and said: "Well, I know, I know. You go down and ask the imperial kitchen to make some snacks and bring them over. Go and bring Yan'er back, and then go to the political tent to wait." "

Chen Wanru is not worried about her youngest son. With Chang Yuan, the top master in the field, accompanying him, there is no chance of any problems.

She was worried that her youngest son would go crazy playing in the wild and not know how to come back for a meal.

"Cha!" Laifu bowed and stepped back, holding a fly whisk in his hand.

Chen Rong didn't know what happened last night. When she heard Laifu say it, she remembered that Mingyue had replied to Ji Yuxian before and said that it was Xue Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment who had invited her.

Could it be possible that the success was due to this incident?

Chen Rong didn't have a good impression of Gu Fei at all.

Chen Rong: Drinking loose tea is still more convenient than the previous tea fights. Order tea·
