my awesome king

Chapter 34

"Toxic? Mu Shuiqing wants to harm me?"

Seeing Ji Xiaomo's color change in an instant, Shen Mo laughed and said: "It turns out that this crutch is actually a gift from the princess! Don't be afraid, my lord, it's just a small amount of poison. The lord's gift of the crutch to the lord is not to poison the lord, but to save you. .”

Seeing that Ji Xiaomo's eyes became more and more suspicious, he explained: "It is recorded in "Compendium of Materia Medica" that pepper tree has the medical value of promoting qi and activating blood, fighting poison with poison, and treating numbness with anesthesia."

Shen Mo's greatest strength is his photographic memory. At that time, with his superior memory, he got the second place in the imperial examination.But he couldn't sit still, let him settle down and talk about state affairs with a bunch of pedantic old officials, it would be better to let him die.So his son inherited his father's business and continued to live a leisurely life as a businessman's son.Of course, the good times didn't last long before a catastrophe of genocide almost happened.

Ji Xiaomo's face was slightly drunk, his butterfly-like eyelashes flickered slightly, and he looked at the crutch in Shen Mo's hand with a gentle look.

"Prickly ash wood has an obvious effect on people whose hands and feet are cold and numb, especially now that the prince's legs are sore and weak, and he can't walk. It is just right to use this to gently pat the lower limbs to dredge the meridians. Moreover, the scent of prickly ash wood is fragrant, which can calm people's mind and soothe the nerves. It can be said to be beneficial without any harm." Shen Mo stuffed the crutch back into Ji Xiaomo's hand, and smiled with his eyebrows bent, "I didn't expect the princess to understand medical principles. The prince is so blessed."

Blessed?

Ji Xiaomo rubbed the crutch in his hand, couldn't help but glanced at the window, but saw Mu Shuiqing standing dog-legged beside Ji Hengyuan, helping him to lead the way, and saying these things with a charming smile, which attracted a lot of attention. Ji Hangyuan made fun of her from time to time, and even hugged her intimately.

In broad daylight, under the eyes of everyone, I'm really not ashamed!
He couldn't help but clenched the crutch in his hand, his eyes narrowed dangerously.However, after Mu Shuiqing entered the private room, Ji Xiaomo couldn't see her anymore.Are you so happy to see Ji Hengyuan?I don't know what the two will do when the lonely man and the widow are in the same room!
Seeing that the back of Ji Xiaomo's hands turned white and the veins were exposed, Shen Mo couldn't help but sigh: Fortunately, the prince's internal strength has not recovered. If it recovers, such a good crutch will be ruined.It's just that I didn't expect the prince to be so jealous... This princess is really amazing!
Mu Shuiqing introduced Ji Hengyuan into a high-end private room named Fengyue Building. There was a large square table in the private room, with an armchair on each side.The interior layout is fresh and elegant, and one side of the window is close to the small bridge and flowing water, which can make people gradually calm down in the nature and taste the nature.On the other side of the window, you can see the whole picture of the ground floor.It can be said to be the best private room in Yipin Tea Pavilion.

Sitting opposite Ji Hengyuan, Mu Shuiqing perfectly demonstrated the art of tea ceremony in front of Ji Hengyuan who was shaking the paper fan with a smile on his mouth.

The water flows quietly through the tea room, making Ji Hengyuan feel relaxed.He leaned on the soft cushion of the rocking chair and half-closed his eyes, quietly staring at Mu Shuiqing, who was making soup beautifully.Seeing her with her head slightly lowered, her face slightly radiant with confidence, and a special aura surrounding her, her face is indescribably beautiful.I really feel that the former self may have really misjudged, Mu Shuiqing is really a piece of beautiful jade...

The hanging pot rushed high, Mu Shuiqing flushed the tea foam out of the pot after some skillful movements, and respectfully handed the clear and bright tea to Ji Xiaomo's eyes, and said with a sweet smile: "Your Majesty, please taste the tea."

The moment the tea is close to the body, a faint fragrance fills the tip of the nose, making people feel peaceful.Ji Hengyuan took the teacup from Mu Shuiqing's hand, looked at Mu Shuiqing's radiant starlight, and even looked at her flushed face due to the hot water, and couldn't tell for a moment whether the fragrance was tea fragrance or not. It still smells good...

Ji Hengyuan picked up the teacup, sipped the tea, and savored it carefully.How much precious tea in the palace has he never drunk?But at this time, the rich and rich Ruolan tea soup swirls in his mouth, smells fragrant in his mouth and nose, moisturizes his throat and produces fluid, making him feel comfortable all over, and there is an indescribable deliciousness.Perhaps it was the beauty of the person pouring tea in front of her.

"The tea soup has a good aroma. Good tea is even more delicious than what I drank in the palace." Ji Hangyuan looked at Mu Shuiqing meaningfully, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to have so much." Now he regrets it a little Back then, Mu Shuiqing, who was so versatile, was thrown by Ji Xiaomo's side.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty." Mu Shuiqing didn't hear the meaning behind Ji Hengyuan's words, but thought he was praising himself, and hurriedly continued to make tea for him, explaining, "The tea in the Yipin Tea Pavilion is no more expensive than the tea your Majesty used to drink. The reason why Your Majesty thinks my tea tastes better is because of the different ways of brewing it. What I have done has truly preserved the color, aroma and taste of the tea."

The ancients thought that boiling water can make good tea, but the modern tea ceremony has found the most favorable temperature - 80 degrees.Such secrets are enough to make the aroma of the tea soup pure but not blunt, the taste fresh but not ripe, the bottom of the leaves bright but not dark, making it delicious to drink.Moreover, the high flushing of the hanging pot makes the boiling water stir up the tea leaves, so that the tea fragrance is easier to develop, so that the whole room is filled with the attractive tea fragrance.

After giving Ji Heng a few small points, Mu Shuiqing respectfully said: "Your Majesty, wait a moment, the performance will start immediately. I will go to prepare first."

Ji Hengyuan nodded, watching Mu Shuiqing's slender figure slowly leave, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

At this time, a large number of guests entered the teahouse one after another, and such a special courtyard-style teahouse attracted the attention of the guests.Pavilions, terraces and pavilions, winding paths and flowers, arched corridors, small bridges and flowing water.It's like being there.In an instant, the lobby on the first floor was almost full, and there were not many private rooms on the second floor.Some of the courtiers slapped their beards, and naturally occupied the private room next to His Majesty.

The guys in the building kept greeting the guests and running back and forth.Ning Shuang and a few girls went to the second floor, because the private room was either for the children of the rich or the high-ranking officials and nobles, so it was natural to entertain them well.On the ground floor, Mu Shuiqing was busy arranging the scene and preparing for the performance.

There are thirty bamboo square tables for four people in the hall, and each table is equipped with four bamboo chairs.The table was covered with a beautiful water-blue tablecloth, and in the center of the tablecloth stood a blue porcelain vase with several orchids in it.On the side of the porcelain vase is the menu of Yipin Tea Pavilion.

The stairs in the right corner can go up to the second floor, and the configuration in the private room on the second floor is more advanced. The bamboo chair is upgraded to a comfortable armrest rocking chair, and there is a comfortable cushion behind it.Moreover, according to Mu Shuiqing's original vision of the private room, each private room with a different name has the same interior decoration, which has a unique charm.

Due to the expansion and reopening of Yipin Tea Pavilion, the area has tripled in size.So all the guys were busy up and down, exhausted and out of breath.But even so, these guys trained by Mu Shuiqing, when leading the guests to their seats, they all held their heads upright, respectful and polite.Such a polite gesture caught the eyes of all the guests, and they all nodded in satisfaction.After inviting the guests to sit down one by one, the guys thoughtfully delivered a piece of fruit and handed over the teacups according to Mu Shuiqing's instructions.

Someone shouted: "Why are there only teacups and no tea? I want a pot of Biluochun, hurry up!"

At this time, the figure of a young man attracted everyone's attention, and he was seen walking through the crowd and quickly came to the old man.He held the shiny copper kettle with a long spout in one hand, and lined up the teacups on the table with the other hand. He raised his hand, and after turning the pot backwards, he held the spout to the teacups more than a foot away, tilting slightly. .At this time, a stream of steaming crystal clear water sprayed out from the spout and accurately shot into the tea bowl.

After a while, the boy withdrew his hand, and the water line stopped abruptly in an instant.Everyone took a closer look and saw that he didn't leak a drop, poured seventy percent full, and the fresh fragrance was overflowing.

The young man handed over the teacups one by one, and respectfully said: "Guest officer, please drink tea." Then he picked up the teapot and drifted to the guest officer who ordered tea at another table to make tea for the guests.

Everyone was amazed by his skillful and steady movements, which drew applause from all over the venue and praised him one after another. Some even ordered several cups of tea in one breath in order to observe the tea-making action up close, and watched the performance with great interest.

For a while, the aroma in the hall was endless. Everyone smelled the fragrance of tea, tasted the sweetness of tea, and had endless aftertaste.

"Good tea!" The old man just now praised, "It's the first time I've grown up and thought that tea is so beautiful and delicious."

In the teacup in his hand, the seedlings were sharp and green in color.

Some literati began to show off their writing: "This is Yulu Immortal Jelly."

"Not intoxicating, slightly refreshing. Good tea, good tea."

The guest officials sipped tea, chatted and laughed, and discussed with each other, and it was very lively for a while.Even in a certain corner of the Yipin Tea Pavilion, some tea lovers started a tea fight to see who could brew the best tea.

"Guest officers, welcome to Tianxia Yipin Tea Pavilion. Today is a beautiful day, our Tianxia Yipin Tea Pavilion has officially opened!"

Mu Shuiqing changed into an elegant and luxurious purple cheongsam, and stepped on tall flower pot shoes. He was slender and beautiful, full of vigor and vigor.When she walked through the thick red carpet, she flicked her sleeves handsomely, and stood slim and graceful on the temporary performance stage.This temporary performance stage is all decorated in festive and flamboyant red, and it is bound to use strong colors to enhance the visual impact and make the scene magnificent.

The originally noisy hall fell silent in an instant, and they all looked up at Mu Shuiqing in the middle of the stage, who was in a graceful figure with slightly sweeping crescent eyebrows.

"Guest officers, thank you all for taking the time to visit the newly decorated Tianxia Yipin Tea Pavilion today. It will provide a comfortable environment, elegant service, and special food..."

After delivering the welcome speech, Mu Shuiqing focused on introducing the characteristics of the teahouse and various drinks, among which the fruit juice that he had been contemplating for many days was successfully developed.

"Now it's hot summer, Yipin Tea Pavilion specially introduces the old and introduces new products - juice. This juice not only has the flavor of the delicious fruit wine that is famous all over the country, but it is even better than wine, and it is not intoxicating. I believe that it is so unique. The refreshing and refreshing fruit juice will definitely make guests linger."

As soon as Mu Shuiqing finished speaking, the girls brought a small glass of fruit juice to the guests one after another.The special drink made everyone shout novelty and refreshing, drinking one cup after another.It is especially loved by people who are not strong enough to drink.

Mu Shuiqing smiled perfectly and said: "The development of Tianxia Yipin Tea Pavilion is inseparable from everyone's support and help. Therefore, today's audience is [-]% off. If you have a membership card of Meiyantang, all consumption can be as low as [-]% off." Discount!" The previously launched membership card is a novelty in the eyes of everyone, but after Mu Shuiqing's explanation, it was sold out within a few days, so that those old customers are very familiar with the strange discounts in Mu Shuiqing's mouth up.

"Next, please enjoy the performance!" Amidst a series of applause, Mu Shuiqing turned slightly sideways. At this time, the red curtain behind her was lifted, and there was only a row of young girls with their heads half bowed, with elegant postures.

"The beauty of cheongsam is like a classical flower, extremely graceful. The simple design and unique tailoring perfectly show the beauty of a woman's body. This is the unique design recommended by Yiyibushe - cheongsam! Okay, no more gossip Already, please enjoy our opening show, Blue and White Porcelain Song and Dance Show!"

The guzheng played lightly, and Ning Shuang sang lightly. A number of girls in water-blue cheongsams of different colors accompanied the elegant music, and their soft and plain hands brushed the curtain, and slowly came out gracefully.They sing and dance gracefully, like water-blue flowers blooming on the crimson carpet, elegant and noble.

On such an occasion, as a princess, Mu Shuiqing is not suitable for dancing and singing in front of everyone, so she spent a lot of time training a singing and dancing team by herself.It was precisely because of training them to dance that Mu Shuiqing's flexibility and familiarity with singing and dancing made him a blockbuster at the previous Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.

Although Ning Shuang's voice was not as clear and mellow as Mu Shuiqing's, it did not have a sad feeling.The girls cooperated with the perfect costumes and props, highlighting the charming temperament of women.But accompanied by the singing, the hidden resentment and beauty of the singing are vividly displayed.The swaying figure is like leaves dancing gracefully in the wind, graceful and beautiful.

When had the common people in the hall seen such a huge and alternative singing and dancing show, each and every one of them was stunned watching the beauties bow and leave the stage.In the private room, although the distinguished guests had seen a more beautiful song and dance than it, they couldn't help praising it one after another.

The business of Yipin Tea Pavilion next door is booming and lively. Even the Yixian Tower on the opposite side can hear all the hustle and bustle. to the opposite side.

"My lord, this has seriously affected my shop's business! I think it's best to take advantage of this to make trouble and let her reputation plummet!" Shen Mo looked at the empty Yixian Tower and said indignantly, "For example, put more snakes, Cockroaches, rats...for example, sudden food poisoning, look at that messy drink, it's juice, it's smoothie! Who knows if it will make you feel uncomfortable after eating it!"

Ji Xiaomo glanced faintly, then he shut up.
