Chapter 14 Making Tea
The tip of the nose is cold and fragrant, like a cup of tea after the rain.The young man seemed weak, but the chest under the gown was cold and firm, which made Shu Yao's eyes turn red coquettishly: "You are presumptuous!"

The tone was fierce, but the pair of apricot eyes were moist and clear, without the slightest deterrent force, just like a rabbit that was irritated.

Li Mingji took two steps back, his eyes lowered: "Mingji overstepped, please forgive me, Princess."

In fact, he was not wrong at all, if he hadn't pulled Shu Yao, Shu Yao would have been smashed into a dog.

But he admitted his mistake too quickly, and didn't give Shu Yao a chance to make use of it. Looking at the respectful and docile young man in front of him, Shu Yao really didn't have the nerve to get angry, so she could only wrinkle her face and said fiercely, "You still don't want to bring the princess in?"

There is still a hot touch on the waist.He obviously only touched it once, but something awakened in the depths of his memory, making Shu Yao's body soften.This feeling made her blush, she looked away guiltily, and really didn't dare to look directly into Li Mingji's eyes.

Chunrui and Pine Needle went up one left and one right, and helped Shu Yao up the steps.The two exchanged glances, and felt that Li Langjun's temper was really good, even if the princess treated him like this, he was not dissatisfied at all, and he seemed quite happy.

Li Mingji calmly led Shu Yao into Qingyanzhai.

No one knows how much effort he spent to resist the urge to hold her slender waist.Xiaojun's main body is extremely beautiful, exquisite and elegant, which once made him taste and taste, and never forget it.

In his previous life, he always thought that if the little princess remembered the feelings he brought, he would never be able to leave him.It wasn't until the little princess left him that he realized that such coercion would not bring any favors, and the little princess had no nostalgia for the world, let alone falling in love with him.

There are three entrances to the thatched cottage, and there are many calligraphy and painting works hanging on the corridors on both sides, some by the elder Shu Yi and some by Li Mingji. Shu Yao looked at it curiously and asked, "When did you paint this?"

Of course Li Mingji didn't remember, he casually glanced at the signature on the wall, "Two or three years ago."

Shu Yao said: "Your style has changed a lot in the past two years."

She still remembered the shock brought to her by those few paintings yesterday, it was hard to tell whether it was progress or regress, most of Qingyanzhai's paintings were reserved and calm, but yesterday's few paintings were bold and unrestrained, it was hard to believe that they were made by the same person.

Li Mingji said with a calm smile: "The princess speaks seriously, and people will always grow."

The little princess is really sharp.

Gently rubbing the fingers hidden under the sleeve, he raised the corners of his mouth calmly.

Leading Shu Yao to the study room, Li Mingji moved a cushion and spread it on the chair, with a gentle voice: "The living room is simple, please forgive me, I will go make tea for the princess."

Although Shu Yao was pampered, she was not picky to that extent, so she snorted softly, "I know."

Chunrui went to the door to guard, and Songzhen was by Shu Yao's side, rarely feeling cramped.

She and Chunrui are responsible for taking care of the princess's daily life, and the other is watching and listening.Songzhen boasted that she knew the princess in detail, and she knew what she wanted to do as soon as the princess frowned, but Li Mingji was faster than her, leaving her nowhere to do it.

She secretly thought, this scholar is considerate and meticulous, but unfortunately his status is low... However, the princess is already the most honorable lady in the whole capital. With her status, her husband and son-in-law are just a foil, and her background is not that important.

Shu Yao couldn't sit still, and while Li Mingji was making tea, she looked around curiously.

The study room is not big, and you can see the bottom at a glance.A screen, a table, a row of bookshelves, and a hexagonal window in front of the table, you can just see the bamboo forest, and there is an unfinished painting on the table, which is the swaying bamboo shadow.

Shu Yao turned her head and saw Li Mingji rolled up his sleeves and poured the brewed tea into the cup.A good-looking person is really good-looking in everything he does. His movements are graceful, and he looks like a painting in this grassy cottage with mountains and rivers.Especially those slender hands that were as long as bamboo joints, which were somewhat similar to the man in her dream... Some images flashed in her mind, and Shu Yao's face blushed suddenly.

What is she thinking?How can one compare Li Mingji with the apprentice in the dream!That apprentice is so vicious, if she can catch him, she will definitely beat him thirty times, then hang him up and put him in a small dark room, so that he can taste the feeling of being forced.

"The princess?"

The eyes of the little princess were inexplicably hot, captivating.Li Mingji's Adam's apple tightened, and his mouth felt dry.

In his previous life, he liked to see the little princess forced to lean in his arms softly and weakly.However, he later realized that, compared to the little princess who was getting thinner and empty-eyed, he preferred to see her innocent and wanton bossing him around.

"There is only crude tea here, and I didn't take good care of it. I hope the Princess will forgive me."

Shu Yao found that since seeing her, Li Mingji has been saying sorry, as if she is some kind of scourge that burns at any moment, is she that scary?

Picking up the tea and taking a sip, Shu Yao patted her fair and tender face, thinking that she was obviously the most beautiful in the world, but this young man was like a piece of wood, not even glancing at her.

"Hey," she took another sip, "what do you use to make this tea?"

Shu Yao is picky about things, everything about food, clothing, housing and transportation is expensive, and the same is true for drinking tea.How much tea to put, how much hot water to add, and when to pour the tea, there are hidden ways behind it, and only the maid who waits close by can understand these.

The tea was slightly bitter in the mouth, but after a sip, it tasted sweet and full of dewy aroma, which was quite to her liking.

"Mountain spring water," Li Mingji said warmly, "Is the Princess not used to drinking it?"

Shu Yao had a reserved look on her face: "It's average, just barely entranced."

The corner of Pine Needle's mouth twitched.

The princess seldom commented directly on something. This "barely entranced" already means that he likes it very much.After all, the princess would not even touch the tea that ordinary people make.

Now that the princess is interested in the newcomer, is she about to fall out of favor as a maid?
"Benefactor, benefactor, this is the residence of distinguished guests, so don't run away..."

There was a commotion outside the door, Chunrui walked in quickly, and whispered to Shu Yao, with a complicated expression: "Princess, it's Xie Xiaoshizi."

Xie Yanzhou?
What does he come to do?
Shu Yao doesn't want to see him now.

Li Mingji said at the right time: "Can the people outside the door know the princess?"

"I don't know," Shu Yao snorted coldly, "I don't want to see you."

"Can Ming Ji relieve the princess' worries?"

"You?" Shu Yao looked at him suspiciously, "What can you do?"

A very faint smile flashed across Li Mingji's eyes, "The Princess can drink tea with peace of mind."

Shu Yao hummed, anyway, she didn't want to see Xie Yanzhou, so Li Mingji could do whatever she wanted.

Outside Qingyan Zhai, the monk held Xie Yanzhou back, with a bitter smile, "Thank you benefactor, the person living inside is really a distinguished guest of my monastery..."

"I am the eldest son of Taiyuan County Prince's Mansion. If I offend your distinguished guests, I will come to apologize someday." Xie Yanzhou threw him away impatiently, and shouted inside, "Yaoyao, are you inside? Myoyao ?”
