After Empress Dowager Zhou finished speaking, the maids around her all took a breath and looked at Princess Tana nervously, waiting for her answer.
They could all see that Princess Tana didn't like drinking this tea, because the words "dislike" were clearly written on her face.
But this is the tea carefully prepared by the Queen Mother. Not to mention extremely expensive, even the tattered grass leaves and roots still have to say: delicious and fragrant!
How could she show up to the surface like this
Sure enough, the Queen Mother noticed it and asked about it.
If Princess Tana is sensible, she can say: I like it, but it's just a bit hot.
In this way, the past can be covered up casually.
But if she told the truth, she would probably make the Queen Mother greatly unhappy.
"This tea doesn't taste good."
While the maids were sweating over Princess Tana, Princess Tana finally spoke.
The moment she opened her mouth, everyone was startled and looked at her dumbfounded.
Queen Mother Zhou was also slightly startled, and then she said with a hint of surprise: "Why doesn't it taste good?"
"This tea is bitter, astringent and not tasty." Princess Tana took another sip, then licked her lips, frowned and shook her head.
"It still doesn't taste good."
She looked at Empress Dowager Zhou with some sympathy: "Empress Dowager, have you been drinking this kind of bitter and astringent tea? Do you think this tea tastes good?"
Seeing her innocent expression, Queen Mother Zhou was not angry. Instead, she nodded with a smile: "Yes, the Ai family drinks this bitter taste, and it still tastes very fragrant. If you can't get used to this tea, what do you like to drink? I'll let them prepare it for you."
"I just like drinking tea." Princess Tana opened her eyes wide with an innocent expression.
Her appearance made Empress Dowager Zhou laugh.
"Okay, then I will ask them to prepare tea for you. If you don't like to drink Yunding Fragrance Mist, I have hundreds of kinds of tea here, you can choose one by one."
Queen Mother Zhou told Su Jin: "Go and get all the good tea leaves we have collected and ask Princess Tana to choose."
Sujin agreed and was about to leave when she was stopped by Tana again.
"Auntie, wait a minute, let me ask you something, are all these teas bitter and astringent?"
Su Jin smiled and nodded: "Princess Tana, this tea is like this. It feels slightly bitter when you take it in, but the aftertaste is endlessly sweet."
Princess Tana waved her hands repeatedly: "Then don't go get it, I can't drink such tea."
"What does Princess Tana like to drink? We also have the best sherbet, plum wine, sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed rice, and sweet rice soup here?"
Sujin smiled and named several drinks in succession, and Princess Tana shook her head.
"I just like drinking tea, but not this kind of bitter and astringent tea, but fragrant and mellow tea."
"Fragrant and mellow tea? We don't have it here." Su Jin said awkwardly.
"I have it, I have it." Tana smiled and clapped her hands, "Oh, I even forgot to give the gift to the Queen Mother, please bring it up quickly."
The attendants she brought came in carrying large boxes and placed them on the ground.
Queen Mother Zhou was surprised and said: "This is..."
"This is a gift specially prepared by Tana for the Queen Mother. I hope the Queen Mother likes it."
Tana stood up briskly, like a cheerful deer, with shining eyes.
She went over and opened the lid of a box: "Empress Dowager, these are all the special clothing materials of our Northern Qi country. They are all woven from the softest and finest wool. They can be made into clothes to wear in winter, which are close-fitting and comfortable." Warm, I wonder if you like it?”
