BXBX NOVEL Chapter 238: gorgeous
He didn\'t disturb the concubines who were talking inside, but passed the Fubiting Pavilion and went up to the Wanchun Pavilion. He didn\'t enter the pavilion, but stood outside under the eaves.
Earlier, a young **** followed behind with a mat, tea stove, and tea set. Lu Yan asked the emperor to open the partitions on all sides of the pavilion and invite the emperor to sit down.
The small red clay stove is burning, and the pine cones make a beeping sound, exuding a refreshing fragrance.
The emperor didn\'t hold back, and asked, "What\'s going on with the Duanxian thing that Caiwan beauty said?"
Hearing this, Han Zhen became interested, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I heard that Mrs. Xie\'s granddaughter is very good. She almost drove her grandmother to death. She couldn\'t tolerate her cousin, so she drove her away. The emperor gave her the title of a county lord, it\'s very domineering!"
Lu Yan slowly poured the boiled water into the tea bowl, the tea was tumbling, and the tender green tea buds were washed away, and the fragrance overflowed.
"Good tea!" The emperor couldn\'t help but praised, and turned to look at Lu Yan making tea, "Ah Yan\'s ability to make tea with one hand is really amazing! I have never seen better than Ah Yan\'s craftsmanship."
Lu Yan smiled, and a hint of evil charm dissipated from the corner of his eyes, "Your Majesty, if you talk about the ability to make tea, I heard that there are as many as twenty-five kinds of tea in Duanxian County. She has never tasted the jade Hanchun in her hand. It is absolute!"
"Oh, there is such a thing?" The emperor exclaimed.
"Your Majesty, it\'s not a secret. At the Orchid Meeting on July 7 last year, the county lord showed three hands in total. Among them was a cup of Yuhanchun. I was lucky enough to drink it, and I still have a lot of aftertaste!"
Han Zhen opened his mouth and was about to speak when he heard Lu Yan say again, "Your Majesty, please drink tea!"
He handed a cup of tea to the emperor. It was a cup of Yuhanchun. The emperor took a sip and exclaimed, "Good tea! This method of making tea is different from your usual method."
"On that day, I asked the county magistrate for advice, and the county magistrate kept no secrets, and taught me the Xie family\'s unique tea making technique, and I was able to show my skills in front of the emperor today."
"If you talk about Hui Xinlan\'s quality, you only focus on the skill of making tea. There is no one in the whole capital who can compare with Wei Yatou."
"Your majesty, there is another girl. I feel that she is comparable to the county lord." Han Zhen really couldn\'t hear the emperor\'s praise of Duan Xian, so he said, "I heard that there will be a Youlan meeting tomorrow. At the meeting, Miss Xue is going to promote an ancient method of flower paper called Xiangyun paper, and the girls and princes in the capital will be blessed in the future."
"Oh, Xiangyun Jian, what kind of flower paper is it?"
"I heard it is very mysterious. It uses an ancient method to print and dye the color on the paper, and there is also a fragrance. If it is done well, the fragrance will overflow."
The emperor became interested when he heard this, and asked, "Tomorrow? The Orchid Fair? How many years have I not participated in the Orchid Fair? Ah Yan, tomorrow, come with me to see it!"
Xue Wanqing is making sufficient preparations. She wants to use the chemical knowledge she learned in her previous life to fix the color of the fragrant cloud paper more firmly. After more than ten failures, she is still fighting more and more bravely. The more people who fail, the more unwilling to give up.
There have been so many failures before, and every failure is a miss with success, unless there is sufficient evidence to prove that the direction is wrong, of course no one wants to give up.
"Girl, drink your saliva before experimenting!" Cuixiang brought a cup of tea to Xue Wanqing, Xue Wanqing shook her head, "Cuixiang, go and rest first, I will try one last time, it doesn\'t matter if it doesn\'t work, now Just enough Xiangyun paper to sell."
Xue’s shop is on Wanshengmen Inner Street, west of the outer city, far away from Hengjie. Despite Xue Shipeng\'s order, the shopkeeper didn\'t take Xue Shipeng\'s words to heart. What can a big girl who lives in her boudoir do?
Xiangyun paper has been placed on the counter, and the shopkeeper has not promoted it.
This shop is relatively remote, surrounded by Baoxiang Temple and Dongyuan Temple. Every spring, students who come from south to north to take exams like to live in these temples and Taoist temples. Therefore, only a few poor scholars will come here to buy some pens, inks and papers every day. Inkstone is not comparable to Taixue and Guozijian. Those who can go to study are either the rich or the children of the powerful. These people are not short of money, so naturally they can buy everything.
Poor students who can’t afford a penny or a piece of paper, who would spend money on Xiangyun paper, let alone ten pieces for a penny, even if they give it away for free, they may not be willing to ask for it.
At noon, Xie Zhiwei asked someone to send ten taels of silver to Xie Mingcheng, and asked him to remember to treat his classmates to a meal. He took four boudoir friends to Panlou. After a delicious meal, he went to Qingle Tea After spending half a day in the workshop, I invited a female storyteller to tell a book, drank a few pots of tea, and the girls reluctantly said goodbye.
We agreed to go to Youlan Residence together on the second day to participate in the Youlan Club.
The Orchid Society is said to have been founded by Princess An, and it has been around for twenty years. It enjoys a high reputation in the capital.
Princess An Guochang later descended to Lu Xiufu, the general of the Xijiang Army. She gave up the life of rich clothes and food in the capital, moved her family to Xijiang, and guarded Xijiang with her son-in-law.
Youlan Residence was taken over by the imperial concubine who was the daughter of Duke Lu at the time. Later, when the imperial concubine entered the palace, Youlan Residence has survived and has not been affected by the palace change.
In these years, how many women have become famous in one fell swoop at the Orchid Festival and got good marriages.
Posts from Youlan Club are hard to come by, but due to the status of the Xie family, they can get at least one post from Youlan Club every time.
Early the next morning, Xie Zhiwei took his three younger sisters to the Orchid Club. The carriage left Tianshuijing Street, walked straight across Zhouqiao Street, turned right on West Avenue, and walked along Qishengyuan Street After about half an hour, I turned onto Xihuamen Street.
There are quite a few daughters who have arrived.
There are two buildings in Youlanju, the left one is for young masters, and the right one is for noble ladies. In the middle of the two buildings is a courtyard covered with glazed tiles. The sun shines in through the transparent tiles. The courtyard is full of flowers and plants. A stream is piled up on the rockery, running through the east and west, like a fairyland.
If there is an event that both young men and girls participate in, it is customary to hold it in the courtyard. The Qushui Liushang here attracts many people to participate every year.
I heard that the design of the Youlan Residence was the work of Princess An Guochang alone. Emperor Jianyuan was amazed when the design came out, and even gardeners in the south of the Yangtze River wanted to accept the princess as an apprentice.
Emperor Jianyuan allocated internal currency to build this Orchid House for Princess An.
Now that Yiren is not here, it is still hard to find a post in Youlanju.
Today\'s update!
Lu Yan: I drank Yuhanchun brewed by Duanxian County Lord on July 7 last year.
