The next step is to ask each lady to bring the gift she prepared to the queen, princess and ladies according to the seating sequence.

Because they took out their presents in front of everyone, everyone collected precious jewels from all over the place, or embroidered handkerchiefs with fine gold silk brocade, and some of them took precious calligraphy and paintings of famous artists and gave them to everyone.

Zijin watched from the side, thinking in his heart that it was fortunate that the lady didn't bring her embroidered handkerchief to give away. This was clearly a comparison of who was richer. What's wrong.

When it was Shui Ningyan's turn to present presents, everyone turned their attention to this Shui Ningyan, who had long been famous in the capital, expecting what kind of gift she would present to others.

The queen sitting on top also looked slightly sideways at Shui Ningyan, and smiled gently at her.

Standing up, Shui Ningyan said to the Emperor and Empress: "Please wait a moment, Your Majesty and Empress, my servants will go down and bring the presents."

After receiving the emperor's nod of approval, Shui Ningyan walked out of the palace calmly and slowly.The lady behind Shui Ningyan continued to take out gifts and give them away, but everyone lost interest in watching and only focused on looking forward to what Shui Ningyan would come up with.

Not long after, a group of court ladies came to the ministers, wives and young ladies with a tray.

Shui Ningyan followed behind into the hall, a faint smile appeared on a face that turned all sentient beings upside down, and said to the person in front of the hall, "This is the hangover tea cooked by my daughter. Enjoy it after the banquet. The servants know that the empress, the princess, and all the wives are very wealthy, and they will definitely disdain ordinary things. Today, the servants will have a cup of thin tea to express their hearts. Madame to taste."

Everyone was looking forward to the gift of water condensation smoke, but now seeing that there is only this cup of tea, some people are already dissatisfied, and before they drink it, a wife said: "Such a gift is really worthy of a word."

Shui Ningyan stood in the center of the hall, smiling calmly, did not answer, only looked at the tea in Baili Qingdai's hand.

Baili Qingdai came to her senses immediately, smiled nonchalantly and picked up the cup of tea from the maid's tray, said in her mouth: "I have drunk countless teas, but I have never heard of hangover tea, so I will try it today. "Speaking, Baili Qingdai opened the teacup, first sniffed it, expressed her intoxication, and then took a sip of the tea.

Seeing that the princess had already received the gift from Shui Ningyan, everyone took tea cups from the maids' hands and tasted them.

The emperor was originally a tea lover, but now seeing that Shui Ningyan was offering tea, he also stretched out his hand to signal the maid to pass it over.

Baili Cangzhu looked at Shui Ningyan, smiled warmly, and picked up the tea to taste it.

Open the lid of the tea, a gust of hot air blows towards the face with the dense fragrance of tea, first taste a sip, the entrance is sweet, after swallowing, a faint bitter taste rises from the throat, take another sip, the mellow and rich flavor of the tea The air is lingering in the mouth, and slowly rises from the throat to Qingtian, and taking another sip, it tastes different again.

"It's really good tea. As expected of the daughter of the prime minister's family, the craftsmanship she has trained is the best in the world. This tea is hard to buy, and this gift is very well prepared." The emperor praised it, and all the officials nodded. This sound was not a compliment, but a sincere admiration for Shui Ningyan's craftsmanship.
