Chapter 13 Milk Tea

Lu An felt thirsty when he woke up in the afternoon. I instantly sighed and thought, it would be nice to have a cup of ice-cold, sweet, fizzy milk tea right now.

Lying on the bed, feeling the breeze, petting the dog, hahahahahahaha, this life is so comfortable. Lu An couldn't help laughing in his heart, and then he reacted instantly, "No, I can do it myself. This thing is not difficult."

So Lu An brought Xuan Ying to the small kitchen. When they got there, Lu An found that there was no tea in the kitchen. "Ah, why? Am I destined not to have milk tea today?"

Eunuch De just happened to come in at this time. He was originally planning to go to the imperial kitchen to prepare tea and snacks for the emperor, but when he passed by the small kitchen, he saw Lu An and Xuan Ying squatting on the ground with frustrated looks on their faces.

Eunuch De shook his Fuchen and asked, "What's the matter?"

When Lu An saw Eunuch Shi De, his eyes lit up and he ran up to him and asked, "Eunuch, do you have any tea?"

When Eunuch De heard this, he sent someone to get the best tea. If nothing else, he could see that the Emperor treated Lu An differently.

Lu An happily said to Eunuch De: "Eunuch De is so nice"

After Lu An got the tea leaves, he started his creation. He lit a low fire and asked Xuanying to watch the fire. He walked to the big iron pot, and when the pot was hot, he put in sugar and fried it until it melted. Then he put the tea leaves in and fried it into caramel. Finally, he put in a large bucket of milk and brought it to a boil.

[Great, I can drink it right away]

[When it’s ready, I’ll give it to Grandpa De to try.]

After boiling, it cooled down and was put into a pot. Lu An took it to the side hall. He happened to see Eunuch De coming to call Xuan Ying to accompany Pei Yan for dinner. Eunuch De also saw what Lu An had in his hand and asked, "What is this?" Lu An directly poured a cup for Eunuch De and asked him to taste it.

Eunuch De took a sip and found it really delicious, so he asked Lu An to take him to Minguang Palace.

Pei Yan saw Lu An as soon as he came in, and naturally he also saw the pot in Lu An's hand.

[Do you want to give Pei Yan a taste of milk tea?]

[But can Pei Yan drink it? Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if I didn’t drink it?]

[But I took them all]

Pei Yan thought, milk tea? Made for me? Are you trying to please me? Then I'll try it reluctantly.

Pei Yan walked up to Lu An and asked, "What are you holding in your hand?"

Lu An lowered his head and said, "This is the milk tea I made. Your Majesty can have a taste."

Pei Yan: "Okay, put it on the table."

After Lu An finished testing the poison as usual, he poured Pei Yan a cup of milk tea before leaving.

Pei Yan looked at the white cup with some scum on it and frowned, but seeing how hard Lu An had worked to make it for him, Pei Yan picked it up and took a sip. After drinking it, he thought to himself that it was not bad, with the fragrance of tea and the sweetness of milk. He couldn't help but look at Lu An again.

Then he ordered: "Then Lu An will be responsible for my tea from now on."

【What? Why? 】

[Can I refuse? I just want to quietly accompany Xuanying in the side hall and be a salted fish]

[You don’t need such a good chef, let me do it]

But there was no other way, Lu An could only take it and prepare to think carefully about what snacks he could make in the evening.

After listening to Lu An's thoughts, Pei Yan thought: This should be the modern food he mentioned in his mind, what they drink there, right?

Pei Yan suddenly wondered if Lu An would suddenly go back one day, just like he came here directly. Knowing that Lu An might disappear inexplicably one day, Pei Yan suddenly felt a sense of panic.

The meal that Lu An had eaten while testing poison tasted so good now tasted like chewing wax in his mouth, and he didn't eat much.

When Eunuch De saw this, he asked, "Your Majesty, is today's meal not to your liking?"

Pei Yan just said: "I just have no appetite."

After finishing the meal, Xuanying was about to go back to the side hall. Pei Yan waved his hand, and the two of them went back to the side hall together. Lu An thought as he walked on the road.

[Luckily I made a lot today, so I left half a pot for myself in the side hall]

[Otherwise, I won’t be able to drink today]

[I am so smart]

After Lu An and Xuan Ying returned to the side hall, it was still early. Lu An took a sip of milk tea and read a book for a while. It was really comfortable. He thought: It would be nice to read a novel, but now it is also super good, he is already satisfied enough.

It was almost time to go to bed when Lu An still didn't see Xuanying. He felt very strange. When he just returned to the side hall, Xuanying saw Lu An drinking milk tea. He came over and rubbed against Lu An. Lu An thought it was not good for animals to drink too much milk tea, so he poured him half a cup. After Xuanying finished drinking it, he ran to the inner room to play and didn't come out for a long time.

Lu An felt something was wrong. Logically, Xuan Ying would not go to bed so early. After all, he slept so much during the day. At night, Xuan Ying always seemed to be full of energy. But today, there was no movement at all. The lack of movement meant that he was acting strangely.

Lu An put down the book and walked into the inner room to find Xuanying, only to see Xuanying sleeping on his small bed.
