Chapter 300 Danzhen Explains
half an hour later
Zheng Jin sat on the chair, looking outside from time to time.
Obviously everything had been arranged and victory was in her grasp, but she looked at Lin Junxue who was sitting in the main seat and had a calm and composed expression from the beginning to now.
As time went by, she began to feel a little nervous.
Lin Junxue took in Zheng Jin's expression calmly, and the corners of her lips curled slightly.
It's never too late for this good show
Because he lacked patience and could not keep his composure, the old man in Yushan chose Zheng Jin. I guess he really had no one else available in the harem!
Zheng Jin lowered his head and said a few more words to Qin Shushu, trying to instigate her, but he hadn't opened his mouth yet.
Everyone saw Danzhen walking in slowly with two cups of tea and a smile on her face.
Danzhen walked up to Lin Junxue, nodded gently, and bowed to greet her.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have brewed your favorite Qingxin tea, and the Xinyang Maojian tea that you recently like to drink. Please enjoy it, Your Majesty."
Danzhen served the tea to Xie Yu, who took it, took a sip, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Not bad, the fragrance lingers on your lips and teeth, and the aftertaste is endless. Not bad, Danzhen's tea-making skills have indeed improved."
Lin Junxue also tasted it
"Yes, Danzhen's tea has already spoiled my taste buds. I can't get used to tea brewed by others."
Dan Zhen said respectfully, "Your Majesty, our queen likes to drink tea, so I must improve my skills so that I can better serve her."
Xie Yu said in a deep voice, "Yes, you have served the Queen since you were a child. You are a smart person. From now on, serve the Queen well, and I will reward you handsomely."
Danzhen kneels down to thank
Lin Junxue glanced at Xie Yu and slowly smiled.
After Xie Yu began to doubt her today, he really gave her enough face and love today.
Very good, no matter how sincere or fake Xie Yu is, at least he can do this in front of others, which is enough for now.
However, as soon as Lin Junxue said this, Zheng Jin's face turned dark again.
Lin Junxue clearly didn't mention her at all, but Zheng Jin felt extremely embarrassed.
Qin Shushu also had an indignant look on her face. It was obvious that the current scene shouldn't be like this.
She was the one who lost her child due to witchcraft. Not only did the emperor not care about her at all, but even the palace maids pointed out the queen as the culprit. But the emperor still acted as if he and the queen were in harmony.
In this situation, the emperor was stabbing her heart with a knife.
Sun Manrou was also extremely jealous, but now she didn't dare to show it at all. She could only silently envy Xie Yu's kindness to Lin Junxue.
Among the few people, only Chen Mi acted the most indifferent after feeling bitter.
Qin Shushu scratched her palms until they bled. She suddenly stood up and glared at Dan Zhen.
"Danzhen, you were just making some tea, why did you take so long?"
Lin Junxue took a sip of tea slowly, put it down, and looked at Qin Shushu who stood up to question her.
Xie Yu frowned and was about to scold Qin Shushu when he saw Lin Junxue gently shaking her head.
Then, Lin Junxue said calmly, "Danzhen, since Shu Jieyu wants to know why you took so long, just tell Shu Jieyu why these two cups of tea took so long to make, and dispel Shu Jieyu's suspicions."
Qin Shushu was stunned and her face flushed. Danzhen turned around and stood aside, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Shu Jieyu, I made these two cups of tea with the dew I got this morning from Jinghe Palace of Yan Zhaoyi. Yan Zhaoyi has the habit of sending palace maids to get morning dew every morning, so I made a special trip to get it. The emperor and the queen have high requirements for tea. Our queen said that the tea that the emperor drinks must be brewed with morning dew, which is collected by the palace maids of Zhonghe Palace early in the morning. So, today, I also used this morning dew on purpose to make the tea with the best taste for the emperor and the queen to taste."
Qin Shushu choked back what she wanted to say, looking embarrassed.
Zheng Jin was surprised and said, "This morning dew was collected from Jinghe Palace. It was really thoughtful. Jinghe Palace and Ning'an Palace are very close. It should be..."
Zheng Jin stopped talking here, but he left enough room and space for people to imagine.
Xie Yu also looked at Danzhen, and a hint of doubt began to appear in his eyes.
Jinghe Palace and Ning'an Palace are indeed not far from each other, so half an hour is spent on making tea, which is a bit long.
Danzhen looked at the suspicion in Xie Yu's and others' eyes, bowed again, and explained calmly.
"Shu Jieyu, if we only take the dew, it really won't take that long. However, apart from the Xinyang Maojian tea that our queen likes to drink, the Qingxin tea that the emperor likes to drink is the most time-consuming and labor-intensive. This tea was specially made by the queen for the emperor's taste. She specially asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Imperial Hospital to mix several kinds of tea together according to the emperor's physical condition."
When Xie Yu heard Dan Zhen's words, he remembered that in the past, whenever he arrived at Zhonghe Palace, she always asked him to drink more Qingxin Tea.
Every time after drinking it, I really feel refreshed both physically and mentally. It turns out that Jun'er had the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Imperial Hospital specially prepare it for me.
Despite her efforts, Jun'er never told him or asked for credit for them. This is Jun'er's personality.
Xie Yu thought again about the grievances that Lin Junxue had suffered in the past, but she had never complained in front of him.
Thinking of this, Xie Yu looked at Lin Junxue with even more tenderness in his eyes.
In fact, when Lin Junxue mentioned that her hairpin was still in Zhonghe Palace, Xie Yu had already believed in his heart that she was not the one who did it.
Xie Yu said in a gentle tone, "Queen, if you have such a thought, why didn't you tell me?"
Lin Junxue sighed softly and said softly, "Your Majesty, it's not a big deal, so I didn't say anything. I didn't expect that today, I would cause misunderstanding and suspicion for nothing."
Lin Junxue showed a shy and aggrieved look appropriately, which was just right, making Xie Yu feel completely soft-hearted.
Zheng Jin was so angry when he saw Xie Yu's attitude towards Lin Junxue that he was about to go crazy.
She is working for the Queen in vain and is clearly arousing the Emperor's suspicion. How hateful.
Chen Mi smiled and said, "The Queen has always been considerate to the Emperor, and we have seen it all."
Sun Manrou quickly said, "Yes, the Queen is very kind to the Emperor."
Compared to Chen Mi, Sun Manrou's praise is somewhat insincere.
But now Xie Yu’s mind is all on Lin Junxue.
Dan Zhen continued, "Your Majesty, the Qingxin tea you drank can clear your mind and relieve internal heat, and it has many benefits for your body. The process of brewing this tea is complicated, and it takes at least half an hour. On weekdays, our queen would prepare it for Your Majesty in advance when she had time. Today, I have prepared it as quickly as possible. I believe that after my explanation, Shu Jieyu and the other queens should understand that I have no time to do anything else except brewing tea. If Shu Jieyu has any questions, I can answer them all."
Danzhen's explanation was flawless, with no flaws or flaws to be found.
Lin Junxue looked at Qin Shushu, and her eyes also fell on Zheng Jin's face
"Shu Jieyu, do you have any questions?"
