I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life

Yinping specially took out a set of tea sets that Pei Zhiyan treasured. This set of tea sets was made from the imperial kiln in the palace, and each piece was very exquisite.

Yinping's technique was skillful and her movements were light. She used the tea set to brew the tribute tea given by the Empress Dowager in one go. As the hot water was poured in, a faint tea fragrance wafted into the air. The aroma was fresh and pleasant, spreading throughout the Yime Pavilion, making people feel relaxed and happy.

"Please have some tea, everyone." Pei Zhiyan smiled and greeted everyone.

Chen took the lead in picking up the teacup, took a sip, and could not help but nod and praise, "Good tea! Really good tea!"

Others also picked up their teacups to taste the tea and nodded in approval.

At this time, Liu spoke up, "Haha, second brother and sister-in-law, we are all from military families. Such good tea can only be described as good tea. If we talk about the art of tea tasting, we have to look at the Cui family's wife and daughter."

As she spoke, she looked at Mrs. Cui and Miss Cui who were sitting next to her, with admiration in her eyes.

Mrs. Cui smiled and responded, "Mrs. Lin, you are too kind. I just like tasting tea, but I am not an expert. This cup of tea is indeed very good. Every sip can make people feel the charm of nature."

Pei Zhiyan looked at Cui Yue'e, who had been sitting there gently, and said with a smile, "I heard that Miss Cui is an expert in tea tasting. Could you please give me some comments so that I can learn more?"

Cui Yue'e stood up gracefully, smiled, and said modestly, "Princess, I only know a little bit, if there is anything wrong, please forgive me."

As she spoke, she picked up the teacup again, tasted it carefully, and then said, "This cup of tea is indeed very good. Judging from the aroma and taste of the tea, it should be Longjing tea from before the Qingming Festival."

"The buds and leaves of Longjing tea trees before the Qingming Festival are tender, and the fragrance is high and long, so it has a unique floral and fruity aroma. Moreover, its picking and production processes are very particular. From picking to production, Longjing tea needs to go through many processes. When picking, you should choose tender buds and leaves, and do it in the early morning to keep the freshness and fragrance of the tea. The production process requires many processes, including drying, rolling, frying, etc. Each process requires delicate operation and strict control to ensure the quality and taste of the tea."

"This cup of Longjing tea has a very delicate taste, melting in the mouth with a long aftertaste. Moreover, its soup color is clear and bright, and its fragrance is fragrant. This cup of tea can be called the best of the best in terms of both quality and taste."

As soon as Cui Yue'e finished speaking, everyone was surprised and amazed. Pei Zhiyan smiled and nodded, her tone full of praise, "Miss Cui really has a deep understanding of the tea ceremony."

Cui Yue'e blushed shyly, "Princess, you are too kind. I only know a little about the tea ceremony."

Pei Zhiyan asked again, "Miss Cui, there is a saying in the tea ceremony, 'When the mind is calm, it naturally cools down', can you share a few words with us?"

Cui Yue'e replied calmly, "In fact, the saying 'a calm mind brings coolness' mainly emphasizes the importance of one's mindset when brewing tea. Only when one's mind is calm can one truly feel the flavor of tea leaves and the rhythm of nature."

"When making tea, you should first boil the water and then gently pour it into the teacup. At this time, you need to be as calm as water and let the tea leaves slowly expand with the flow of water. In this way, you can better appreciate the fragrance and delicacy of the tea."

At this time, Pei Zhiyan felt more confident that Cui Yue'e was indeed talented. With such a wonderful person, it seemed that Aunt Yun had a rival.

Chen put down her teacup and praised with a smile, "This scholar's family background is different from the rough folks like us. Miss Cui has broadened our horizons today."

Liu smiled and replied, "No, no, madam, you are too kind. I just like to study some tea art techniques."

Liu also praised, "Yes, Miss Cui is indeed a beautiful lady with both talent and beauty. She is really enviable. Unlike the few young girls in our general's mansion, who can only wield swords and guns and don't look like girls at all."

When Lin Ruyin heard this, she pouted and said with some dissatisfaction, "Mom, you are so mean. You don't even give us some face in front of outsiders."

As she spoke, she made a face, causing everyone to laugh again.

After hearing what Lin Ruyin said, Liu couldn't help but laugh, "You naughty girl, you should learn more from Miss Cui."

Liu looked at Lin Ruyin's appearance and smiled slightly, "Ms. Lin is really bold and straightforward. My Yue'e is just too quiet and sometimes seems very boring."

After everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while, Pei Zhiyan looked at Lin Ruyin and said with a smile, "My cousin is a lively and active girl. She has been sitting with us for most of the day, so she must be a little tired. Why don't you accompany Miss Cui to walk around the garden?"

Lin Ruyin was overjoyed and immediately agreed. She stood up and walked to Cui Yue'e and said, "Sister Cui, there are some koi in the back garden of Prince Jing's Mansion. They are very beautiful. Let's go and have a look together."

Cui Yue'e nodded slightly, then stood up and bowed slightly to Pei Zhiyan and the two ladies of the general's mansion, then followed Lin Ruyin out of the hall.

After watching the two men walk away, everyone withdrew their admiring gazes.

Chen continued, "Miss Cui is one of the best in the capital in terms of both talent and appearance. Madam San is so lucky to have such an outstanding daughter."

Liu sighed and shook her head, "Alas, these are all empty words. I just hope that she can have a good home. That is my real blessing."

Upon hearing this, Liu also said, "Madam San, don't worry too much. Marriage has always been predestined. Miss Cui's time has just not come yet. A girl as outstanding as her will definitely have a happy ending."

"Then I'll take advantage of Madam Lin's good wishes." Liu said with a smile.

At this time, Chen suddenly said, "So, I do have a candidate."

Both Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu looked at Mrs. Chen with some curiosity, waiting for her to continue.

Chen looked up at Pei Zhiyan and said, "Princess's father, Prime Minister Pei and Miss Cui are a good match. What do you think, Madam Third?"
