Chapter 200 The Familiar Taste of Tea



Yu Jing'er felt very uncomfortable. If that was really the case, then what was written on the wall was a mockery of them, that they couldn't even protect the Regent.

There's no need for them to defile the Regent's desolate place.

...

"We can't find the person."

Ankesen knew this was because so much time had passed. "It's alright, I'll have someone add more investigations here."

"Um."

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, An Kesen reached out and rubbed her head. "Don't worry."

Yu Jing'er hummed in agreement; she couldn't very well reveal Murong Jin's original plans.

...

The bedroom.

Di Junlan held the homework that Murong Jin had given him.

He has already done a lot of work in the above answer.

May the country be prosperous and the people at peace.

A strong nation and prosperous people.

That is their goal.

Ah Jin.

I miss you.

"His Majesty."

Zhao Delin placed the tea on the table, and watched as the man looked down at the papers on the table.

I knew it then; His Majesty was thinking about the Regent again.

Di Junlan hummed in agreement. After Zhao Delin left, Di Junlan looked at the teapot.

The tea leaves given by Murong Yi.

After he poured himself a cup of tea and smelled the familiar aroma, his eyes immediately became somewhat vacant.

After taking the first sip, the corners of his eyes were already red.

Tea.

This is the tea that Ah Jin used to always have with her.

"Oh? You're asking about this tea? It's privately made, and only I possess it."

"I'd like to buy some. How about the Regent name a price?"

"Ha, not for sale."

Tea reserved for the Regent.

Di Junlan knocked over his teacup. "Zhao Delin."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Di Junlan rushed out and asked him, "Where is Yi'er?"

"I've returned to the Prince of Zhenbei's residence."

"The Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion." He muttered these words to himself. After Ah Jin left, he had wanted to buy this kind of tea, but it turned out that there was no such tea in the entire capital.

...

"Young master, His Majesty has sent someone over."

Upon hearing this, Nan Fengyi looked at his mother, who was eating melon seeds beside him, and asked, "Mother?"

"Go and greet them yourself."

"Oh~"

Nan Fengyi entered the hall and saw Zhao Delin, who looked travel-worn. "Eunuch Zhao."

"Greetings, Young Master Yi. This old servant has been ordered to come and inquire."

Nan Fengyi: "Please speak, Eunuch Zhao."

"His Majesty asked where you bought the tea you gave him, as he also wants to buy some."

Nan Fengyi was taken aback. "Tea? My family drinks this tea. Doesn't anyone sell it outside?"

Zhao Delin was also surprised. "Yes, His Majesty said he wanted to buy more, but none of the ones sold outside suited his taste."

"Oh, I see. I need to ask my grandfather, because I'm not quite sure either."

Zhao Delin understood. "Alright, this old servant will go back and report to His Majesty first. Once you have found out, I will come back to trouble you."

Nan Fengyi: "Okay."

...

"Mother, I've come to ask about tea."

Murong Jin took a sip of tea. "If you give him the tea that Mother specially made, he will naturally become suspicious."

"Why?" "Because that tea is only available in our family, and it used to be exclusively for me to drink."

Upon hearing this, Nan Fengyi asked, "Why? Didn't Grandpa drink it either?" "No, he thought the tea was a bit bitter and had a strange taste, so he never drank it."

Therefore, in the entire Regent's Palace and the Zhenbei Prince's Palace, she was the only one who liked the taste of this tea.

"I think it tastes pretty good."

Seeing the little guy say that, "Have you had tea?"

Nan Fengyi immediately stood up straight. "I only drank two sips, nothing more."

"Even when you grow up, you can't drink too much."

Nan Fengyi looked at her and thought, "Never mind, it's fine if Mother drinks it every day... We'll talk about it when he grows up."

"Yes, Mother."

Murong Jin: "When Zhao Delin comes over again, just say that you found this tea in your grandfather's study and thought it tasted good, so you brought it to drink."

Nan Fengyi: "Okay."

...

After hearing the rumors circulating in the capital, Jin Si asked, "No, a warrant for the arrest of tomb raiders?"

"Especially the thieves who robbed the Regent's tomb?"

"Isn't this basically issuing a warrant for my arrest?"

He was completely stunned. "I never expected that I would get myself into such a mess."

Jin Yue patted his shoulder, "I heard the Imperial Guards have been mobilized. Be careful, or you'll be in big trouble if they trace it back to you!"

Jin Si: "I don't understand. Since the regent is gone, His Majesty should listen to the advice of those ministers who keep urging him to take concubines and have an heir as soon as possible."

Jin Yue looked at him and asked, "Do you think those people are afraid to offend His Majesty now?"

"Why?"

“When His Majesty ascended the throne, he did not have any military power, only the Imperial Guards, who were responsible for obeying the Emperor’s orders. At that time, His Majesty was wary and would naturally listen to the opinions of those ministers and handle matters accordingly.”

"Now, His Majesty holds the military power of the Regent, the Tiger Tally, and the three armies obey his orders. Do you think he would still be afraid of those ministers?"

"So this is why he is so unscrupulous now. The master originally trained His Majesty to become an emperor who can make his own decisions, rather than being controlled by others."

Jin Si looked bewildered. "And then?"

Jin Yue: "My lord used his last breath to teach His Majesty the true meaning of life, allowing him to grow up. People need to experience both loss and gain in order to grow up amidst grief."

"However, even the master probably didn't expect that His Majesty was serious about her."

Jin Si said "Oh," and then asked, "So what should I do now?"
