The people present did not expect that Xue Lanzhi would show off her talent in making tea.

She told the girl to put the tools she had prepared long ago on the table. She looked at her eyes and stretched out her delicate hands and took out a piece of tea cake from an exquisite wooden box.

"Empress, this is a mulberry tea made by the little girl. It is taken from the south of the Yangtze River and is roasted by the savage sun in the north. The tea fragrance is everywhere, and there is no need for seasoning and drinking."

When the queen heard this, she became interested: "Oh? Just cook this mulberry tea?"

Previously, it was always popular to add various seasonings to drink tea, which neutralizes the bitterness of tea, and it is rare to make tea alone.

At this time, the people in the audience began to whisper, discussing that the five ladies had no superb skills that could make the mulberry tea taste sweet without seasoning.

Fangchun, not far away, sneered and whispered: "Miss, Miss Fifth is really good at treating people's favor. When I knew that the Empress liked tea, she went to secretly learn tea art. Didn't she look down on her when you were studying tea art in the mansion before?"

I remembered that Xue Jiangxi fell in love with studying tea because of her poor piano skills, but Xue Lanzhi felt that it was already an old skill in the previous dynasty, so there was no need to spend that time.

It was because of her big publicity that the second young master and the others felt that the lady was wasting her time and deliberately did not learn the piano well, and specifically learned the wrong skills, which was useless.

She learned it herself at this moment.

"When it comes to tea art, I think the lady will definitely be the one who can pass her a street! Let's try it later."

Seeing Fangchun's face full of dissatisfaction, Xue Jiangli just chuckled and joked: "Do you want me to show off and marry into the royal family?"

When Fangchun heard this, her head shook like a rattle and stopped quickly: "Of course not, of course not!"

At this time, Xue Lanzhi asked someone to bring another basin of water, and the silver basin instantly caught a lot of attention.

She said slowly, her voice softly: "Eight-point tea and ten water, this is the dew that the little girl asked her to go to Qinglie Temple to collect ten days ago."

When I heard that it was the dew from Qinglie Temple, someone else took a deep breath.

This is not simple.

I saw her sitting down straight, slowly crushing the tea cake with her hands.

Place the selected dew water in a kettle and boil it with charcoal fire. When the little hot air rises, put the broken tea leaves in, and the water and tea blend together.

Everything is well-behaved, but when cooking tea, the waiting time is a bit long. Everyone is so bored that they just want to quickly know what the final taste is.

Xue Lanzhi was patiently grasping the temperature. As the people in the audience changed their attention, she only said that those people were a group of people who didn’t understand tea, so they naturally had to be patient in making tea.

Although the queen also understood this, it was really boring to wait, so she started chatting with Concubine An around her.

After a long time, Xue Lanzhi handed the cooked mulberry tea to the queen.

"Empress, please taste it."

Then he handed the other cups to the nanny in charge and other concubines.

At the same time, several men on the hills and pavilions couldn't help but talk.

"Look at the fifth lady who cooks tea in a good manner, but I don't know how the tea tastes?"

The seventh prince Zhao Yuan, who was eating melon seeds, snorted and said, "Wait for so long to drink tea? It's better to drink water."

"Seventh brother, you can't say that, tea art is..."

"Don't talk to me about those who have or not."

Zhao Yuan didn't have that patience and waved his hand to stop the third prince's words.

At the same time, the queen took the cup of tea, tasted it gently, and her brows moved slightly.

"It's not bad, much better than I imagined. Although there is no seasoning added, it is not as bitter as mulberry tea. The soup is also very good. It's not as slow as it is, but it has a master's style."

The queen told her feelings truthfully, and the people present gave praise for a moment.

Xue Lanzhi smiled and said politely: "Thank you for your praise. This tea art was something that the little girl had learned from her at home and learned from her fourth sister."

She mentioned inadvertently that the queen caught the point: "Oh? Miss Four can do tea art?"

At this time, Xue Jiangli, who was sitting far behind, was clicked again, and she looked helpless.

Don’t Xue Lanzhi feel tired of the same routine?

Last time I was at the palace banquet, I insisted on seeing myself making a fool of myself and took the opportunity to send me to the front stage. Now I mentioned it again "unintentionally" and my mind was obvious.

However, Xue Jiangli didn't intend to show off his talents and wanted to disappear here.

I just had a slightly blessed body and politely returned to the queen's words.

"The little girl just had something to do with her, and her skills are naturally not as careful as Miss Five's careful study."

When others saw her refusal, they quickly spoke: "I heard that Miss Four, who was still here with the Queen's white jade gold post this time, I guess the person the Queen looks at must not be ordinary people, so Miss Four, don't be humble."

"Yes, I've come here. Look at your fifth sister so outstanding, you have to show the style of the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Although the queen knew that she was reluctant, she was hoping that Xue Jiangli could show some skills.

She is very optimistic about this woman.

If you are good in all aspects, of course you have to enter the palace.

So the queen said in person: "The person I like will definitely not be bad. Miss Four, are you prepared today?"

Seeing this, Xue Jiangli was already in a dilemma and was pushed to the front of the stage.

Even because of the queen, she had to go even if she didn't want to.

His eyes flashed over Xue Lanzhi, and saw her raising her chin lightly, with a hypocritical smile on her face, and even "pleaded" for her: "Empress, the fourth sister doesn't like to show off on weekdays. If she is in a dilemma, why don't I play the piano for her again?"

When others saw it, they couldn't help but sigh.

【Miss Five is really kind-hearted and thinks about her family everywhere.】

[How can the fourth lady be so slutty? Can the empress still refuse after she has spoken?]

[Isn’t it just to show yourself to this feast? Otherwise, why do you have to receive a post?]

Xue Jiangli grasped Xue Lanzhi's thoughts, and a feeling of anger gradually accumulated in his heart.

Want to use the queen to suppress himself?

She could tolerate it for a while, but she didn't want to keep it going!

She saw her eyes slightly deeper, and she decisively walked to the front of the stage under the queen's gaze.

"Since that's the case, the young woman will show her ugly appearance."

The queen smiled and said with satisfaction: "The fourth lady is kind and kind, and she will definitely not disappoint me. Have you thought about what to show?"

Xue Jiangli slowly raised her head and suddenly pointed at the pile of tea sets that Xue Lanzhi had just used.

"Miss Five said that the tea art comes from being influenced by me, so should I also cook a pot of mulberry tea for the Empress?"

As soon as this said, everyone in the seat was shocked, and then they couldn't help but chuckled.

Even the queen felt strange: "Fourth Lady, this mulberry tea has been drunk in my palace. The tea-making skills are the same, but the taste is different."

"No, didn't the Empress say that she would come with some fresh stuff? My tea is very different from Miss Wu's."
