King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

  Chapter 80 Invitation

   Shopkeeper Wu paused when he turned around, and subconsciously raised his head to look at the private room on the third floor, but saw that there had been no instructions for a long time, so he couldn't help but look anxiously at the boy at the door.

  The young man caught the gaze of shopkeeper Wu, poked his head into the private room, and said cautiously, "Master?"

  Jun Li was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses, and looked at the person downstairs who answered the second couplet, but it was Brother Han who had been taciturn among the previous few scholars.

  Nodding to the boy outside the door, after a while, shopkeeper Wu's voice came from downstairs.

   "My master just said that he would like to invite this young lady to go upstairs to talk about it." After speaking, the shopkeeper Wu had come to Brother Han and said respectfully.

  Brother Bai and Brother Liu were stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Congratulations Brother Han, please invite us to taste the fine wine later."

  Brother Mo on the side heard the words and nodded as quickly as a chicken pecking at rice. She covets the fine wine made from the grapes, but unfortunately she has no luck with that fine wine. Now that someone around her has obtained that fine wine, how can she let go of this opportunity to taste it.

  Thinking of the deliciousness of the grape wine, Brother Mo couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and looked at Brother Han expectantly.

  Brother Han glanced at a few people and nodded slightly.

  Brother Bai and Brother Liu's expression remained unchanged, but Brother Mo hugged Brother Han directly, so happy that he almost went up to kiss her.

   Shopkeeper Wu waited respectfully aside from the beginning to the end, without the slightest expression of impatience on his face.

   This made Brother Han, who had been observing secretly, nod his head, and he was even more sure in his heart that the owner of the building outside the building had an extraordinary background, otherwise he would never be able to cultivate such a person. And seeing that shopkeeper Wu walks with light steps and a stable foot, he is definitely a person who has practiced martial arts all year round.

  If she can persuade the owner of the building outside to help her, then she will have a better chance of winning back what belongs to her.

  Under the guidance of shopkeeper Wu, he slowly came to the private room on the third floor.

  Brother Han's eyes were fixed, it seemed that it was not an illusion just now, there was really someone watching them secretly, it seemed that that person was none other than the master behind the building outside the building.

  Come outside the private room, shopkeeper Wu said softly, "Master, someone is here."

   "Come in." A faint voice sounded, carrying a hint of imperceptible majesty.

   "Yes." Shopkeeper Wu bent over and said to Brother Han beside him, "Miss, please go in."

  Brother Han nodded when he heard the words, lifted the bead curtain and walked in.

  As soon as you enter the elegant room, a faint vanilla smell hits your face. Brother Han couldn't help but took a deep breath, she knew this kind of herb, and it was a herb that only dignitaries could use. And it smells the best of all herbs. In my heart, I became more and more certain that the owner of this building outside the building was by no means an ordinary person.

   "Sit." A faint voice sounded, and Brother Han couldn't help being stunned.

  When he saw the stunning woman in the ink-colored dress sitting in the middle, brother Han couldn't help but be amazed.

  Such stunning beauty, I am afraid it is enough to make all the men in the world eclipsed by it.

  Come to the other side of the table, sit face to face with the woman, watch her holding the teapot, cleaning the teacup in a way she has never seen before, and then make a cup of bamboo leaf tea in front of her.

  Brother Han was surprised, bamboo leaves can also make tea?

As if seeing what she was thinking, Jun Li said, "Plucking the leaves of the bamboo heart to make tea can clear away heat and fire. It will also have some benefits for the body after a long time." He drank the tea in the cup, Signaled to brother Han on the opposite side to try too.

  Brother Han looked at the ordinary green bamboo leaves in the cup, doubts flashed in his eyes. This small bamboo leaf really has such a great use?

   Picked up the cup and took a sip. At first, there is a faint astringent taste, and then there is a mouthful of fragrance. The fragrance smells like the smell of newly grown bamboo, with a freshness after the rain, and a touch of green grass.

   After drinking in one gulp, he slowly drank the rest of the tea in the cup and sighed, "Good tea!"

   "Would you like another drink?" Jun Li smiled lightly.

  Brother Han gently pushed the cup in front of Junli, and nodded.

  The same as the method of making tea just now, put the re-brewed tea in front of Brother Han, Jun Li said, "How about a taste."

  Brother Han put the cup to his mouth and took a sip. This time, the first thing I tasted was no longer the astringent taste, but the faint fragrance of bamboo. Although the taste is similar to just now, it is completely different.

   "This..." Brother Han was puzzled and looked at Junli in puzzlement. They are all the same bamboo leaves and the same water, so why do they taste different?

Understanding her doubts, Jun Li smiled lightly and explained, "Although the bamboo leaves and water are the same, if there is one wrong place when making the tea, it will change the taste of the whole cup of tea." He glanced at her lightly , and continued, "Just like this person, although they have the same birth, the same family and appearance, but if they have different temperaments, the future will have different results."

  Brother Han was shocked, and looked at Junli sharply, "What do you want to say?"

   "What to do when you are so excited, it's just a sentence of emotion." She glanced at her and said with a half-smile.

  Brother Han's hands under his sleeves were clenched into fists. If he hadn't known that he was going to make a second couplet on a whim, he would have been invited by the woman in front of him. I'm afraid she has some doubts whether this woman has checked her identity a long time ago and made a special trip here to wait for her today.

   "Your Excellency's invitation to me is probably not as simple as drinking tea?" Brother Han's voice was cold, without the slightest emotion.

  Jun Li narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "I just admire talented people very much. Seeing that my brother and I are writing a couplet, I can't help but ask you to come up."

   "I'm Muli, don't you know your brother Gao's name?" Junli said with a smile. Mu is her modern mother's surname.

  Brother Han was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Junli to be so forthright. Although he knew that the name was most likely a pseudonym, she used an alias in front of Liuyuan Baiheng and Mo Kuang.

   "Han Ye."

  Jun Li raised his eyebrows, and didn't say much about the alias, but smiled lightly, "Brother Han, meeting is fate, why don't you just have lunch with me?"

  Han Ye thought for a while, and responded, "Okay, but I still have a few friends..."

  Junli said heartily, "Since we are friends of Brother Han, let's stay for lunch together."

  Han Ye nodded. Of course, she would not let go of the opportunity to make friends with the owner of the building outside the building. "Okay, then I'll go down and talk to them first."

  Jun Li raised his hand, "Let the boy go."

  Han Ye glanced at Junli, said nothing, nodded in acquiescence.

  Call the boy outside the private room and tell him to go down and invite Han Ye's friends over. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside the private room.
