While Liu Zimo was stunned, Luo Ran had already brewed the tea, with a few emerald green tea leaves floating on the clear tea water. It's just different from Longjing, which is abundant in the south of the Yangtze River. The green color of Longshen tea has a hint of hardness, not as smooth as Longjing.
"Master Liu, please sit down."
Luo Ran raised his finger and pointed at the opposite position, and at the same time pushed the brewed tea cup over.
Liu Zimo came back to his senses and smiled bitterly: When had he ever been so nervous when facing a woman?
Of course, it was only a brief moment.
He didn't refuse, stepped forward, took two steps, and took a seat, his eyes falling on the tea cup in front of him. The black porcelain glaze is uniform and delicate, and when touched in the hand, it feels like a woman's delicate skin. The heat of the tea soup is transmitted to the palm of the hand through the tea cup, and flows along the blood throughout the body, making the whole person's blood boil.
As for Luo Ran, who was opposite him, he was actually not as natural as he looked on the surface.
She heard Lu Jiuchen say that the person in Beijing who could hate Fu Jin'an more than anyone else was the person in front of her.
Thinking of the death of myself and my father in the previous life, although this person was not directly responsible, it was inseparable from his contribution behind the scenes. Even in this life, I was almost destroyed by his poison twice.
She would never come to see him today unless she had to. Even if this person saved his life twice.
You can repay kindness in various ways, but you can't let anything happen to that person.
Therefore, she made her own decision, promised Lu Jiuchen on the front foot, and came to see him on the back foot. I prayed silently in my heart: I hope my trip today will not be in vain.
The two of them were each thinking. Luo Ran spoke first: "Master Liu, why don't you try it? But you are worried that I will poison you?"
Liu Zimo shook his head with a smile, picked up the teacup and rubbed it between his fingertips, looked up at Luo Ran and said, "Princess, does the princess know how people in the northwest use tea?"
Luo Ran was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and said, "A bowl?"
Although she was born in wealth and grew up in a prosperous house, she still knew a little about the people in the city, especially after Chun Yu came to her side. In her previous life, her favorite and most relaxing moment was listening to Chun Yu tell her about the alleys. the lives of common people.
At that time, she felt that compared to being locked up in this dark and dark mansion of the Duke of Guo, even listening to the street shrews swearing at her every day was a kind of happiness.
So she knew that most ordinary people drank tea at home to quench their thirst. Unlike wealthy families, even the water for making tea is very particular, let alone the tea sets. What kind of tea goes with what tea set? It's just that she is not good at tea art and only knows a little about it.
After hearing her words, Liu Zimo nodded slightly: "That's right."
Then he explained: "But it's not what the princess thought. People who like tea are still a bit particular. It's just that few people in the army care about it. They usually use cups shaped like bamboo hats, also called bamboo hat cups. The porcelain is white and has no lines. , The mouth is big and the bottom is small.”
Luo Ran smiled and said, "Master Liu, what do you think of this tea?"
Liu Zimo gently shook the teacup, and the water rippled, reflecting his somewhat serious face. He tugged at the corner of his mouth, wanting to smile, but he felt a little ugly, so he simply opened his eyes and said: "The tea leaves are straight and crisp, and the soup is bright. ,"
He took a sip gently, closed his eyes, and savored it carefully. After a moment, he said: "It is mellow in the mouth, with a fresh taste and chestnut aroma. It is indeed a good tea."
Luo Ran didn't drink it. He put down the tea cup and said softly: "I heard that the northwest is windy and sandy all year round, but I didn't know that such good tea could be produced. It's really not easy."
Liu Zimo slowly opened his eyes and looked at the woman opposite him. For a moment, he couldn't guess why she was looking for him this time, so he said directly: "Is it really just for the purpose of tasting tea when the princess calls me here?"
Luo Ran smiled, raised his head, looked at him, and said: "I haven't thanked you for what happened at Fahua Temple. I heard that you have lived in the northwest for a long time, so I think you will like this tea. I got some by chance, but I am not used to it. , if you don’t mind it, I will borrow flowers to offer to Buddha today, and please accept them.”
Liu Zimo looked at the tea can in her hand, which was so green.
What is more dazzling than the tea can is the woman's fair and slender fingers, with no wrinkles at the joints. It can be seen that they have been carefully maintained since childhood.
Liu Zimo looked away and did not refuse: "So, thank you for the princess's kindness. It's just that not all the things in the temple were helping the princess at that time, and it was also Wei Chen's negligence that allowed people to take advantage of it. Wei Chen really didn't dare to be the princess's thank you. "
Seeing that he persisted, Luo Ran didn't say anything and said, "I invite Mr. Liu to come today to ask for something."
Liu Zimo raised his eyes, which shone with an astonishing light. Luo Ran didn't dare to look at him for a moment, and suddenly regretted looking for him rashly, but after thinking about it, he still said: "I heard that Lord Liu has various secret medicines in his hands, I think Asking adults for a medicine can make people look like they are not breathing, but in fact..."
"Fake death medicine?"
Liu Zimo couldn't help but said.
Luo Ran nodded: "Yes, this is the medicine. Does Mr. Liu have it?"
Liu Zimo looked at her and asked, "Princess..."
Halfway through, he stopped and said, "Are you anxious, Princess? I don't have Wei Chen now, but I have heard of it and know where to find it."
Luo Ran nodded: "Don't be in a hurry, but don't be too slow either."
"Okay, within ten days."
"In that case, thank you Master Liu."
"Spring Rain!"
Luo Ran called out.
Chunyu came in, placed a palm-sized box in front of Master Liu, and said, "Master Liu, this is the medicine paid by our princess."
Liu Zimo glanced at Luo Ran, then pushed open the lid of the box with his knuckled hands, revealing a stack of banknotes inside.
He smiled and shook his head: "It won't take so much."
Then he took out a banknote from it, glanced at the number on it, and said, "This one is enough."
Push the box in front of Chunyu.
Luo Ran said, "Master Liu, you'd better accept it. If you don't accept it, I'll find someone else."
Liu Zimo's brows twitched slightly. For a moment, he turned the small box in his palm and said with a smile, "Princess, do you want to use these banknotes as a thank you gift?"
Luo Ran did not hide anything and nodded honestly: "Yes. Whether what happened that day was intentional or incidental, I should thank you. Although such yellow and white things may make you feel uncomfortable, I promise, If you need my help in the future, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it."
What she said was that she could do it, not what the Luo family could do, and not what Fu Jinan could do.
Of course Liu Zimo understood the meaning.
Liu Zimo flipped his wrist, put the small box into his sleeve, and said: "If this can make the princess feel at ease, then I will accept it."
Although Luo Ran felt that something was wrong with what he said, it would be easy to deal with it as long as he accepted it.
"That being the case, if I still have something to do, I won't disturb the princess. When the medicine arrives, I will order someone to deliver it here, and the princess will send someone to pick it up!"
Liu Zimo stood up to say goodbye and turned around to leave without any hesitation.
Luo Ran breathed out lightly.
Chunyu went out and saw Liu Zimo walking away, then turned around and closed the door, whispering: "Princess, do you think the prince's matter has something to do with Mr. Liu?"
