Rebirth and Conferred God: Against Heaven and Become Holy

Chapter 882 Tea Fragrance
Inside Xiqi City.

Since the earth wall surrounded the [-] counties, everything has become extremely smooth.

More and more princes announced their surrender to Xiqi, and only a few counties such as Beihai 72 counties, Dongbohou Jiang Wenhuan, Xibohou Eshun, and Sanshanguan were still holding on in the whole world.

After returning to Xiqi, Jiang Ziya once again summoned an army of [-] to train rigorously, in order to wait until most of the princes in the world surrendered, and lead troops to wipe out the last remnants.

In Jiang Ziya's eyes, apart from Su Yuan, the Beihai counties, Jiang Wenhuan and others were not his opponents at all.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ziya has not waited for the expedition, and even the training of the 72 troops has not been completely completed, and he has received letters of loyalty from Beihai [-] County, Dongbohou Jiang Wenhuan, Xibohou Eshun, and Sanshanguan.

This time, not only Ji Fa was very excited, but even Jiang Ziya was greatly surprised.All the princes in the world have expressed their loyalty. Doesn't it mean that Xiqi is already the master of the world?

Therefore, Ji Fa immediately forgot about it, and already regarded himself as the lord of the world, and immediately ordered all the counties in the world to pay tribute to her beauties, and in just a few months, the harem received thousands of concubines.

Although Jiang Ziya felt inappropriate and advised Ji Fa several times, Jiang Ziya himself could not find any suitable reason. After all, the eight hundred princes had surrendered, and Su Yuan who was outside the earthen wall could not enter it. Once Yuan died, they could break the city wall and wipe out Chaoge.

Therefore, after Jiang Ziya persuaded him a few times, he simply stopped dissuading him. Even Dawan didn't bother to train, and practiced in the prime minister's mansion every day. He only waited for a big victory ten years later and accepted Yuanshi Tianzun's award.

Seeing that Jiang Ziya didn't care about him anymore, Ji Fa became even more unscrupulous, and searched almost all the rare items in the world into Xiqi Palace.

It's just that Ji Fa has gradually lost interest in playing with beauties and seeing more treasures.

On this day, Ji Fa was sitting in the palace feeling bored, with his hands unconsciously walking around the concubine beside him, he only heard a voice from outside the palace gate: "Report to Your Majesty, Yuan Futong from Beihai County presents a tribute."

Ji Fa snorted through his nose, and said: "Yuan Futong is a remnant of Su Yuan, and he was the last to surrender. I don't see him paying tribute to any beauties or treasures. Did you just remember today? Hmph, I'd like to see him pay tribute." If something is ordinary, I will just punish him and pass it on to him."

After receiving Ji Fa's order, I saw a young man walking up to the main hall. The man's face was slightly pale, and he was handsome, but his right hand was missing three fingers.

"Son of Beihai Governor Yuan Futong, Yuan Xishi pays his respects to His Majesty."

It turned out that this young man was Yuan Xishi.

"Hmph, what are you offering as a tribute?" Seeing that there were no wooden boxes or beauties behind Yuan Xishi, Ji Fa's expression became even more serious.

"I pay tribute to a treasure from Beihai County."

As he said that, Yuan Xishi took off a purple wooden box, and saw that the box was carved with patterns, which looked extremely precious.

Seeing that the wooden box was still valuable, Ji Fa's expression turned pale: "Pass it up."

Immediately, a waiter handed over the wooden box, sent it to Ji Fa, and opened the box lid.

Looking at the contents in the wooden box, Ji Fa couldn't help being furious, slapped the table with his palm, and cursed: "What a Yuan Futong, you dare to use a few broken leaves to make fun of me, I must kill this thief."

With that said, Ji Fa was about to raise his hand to sweep out the wooden box.

Yuan Xishi hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty can't, this treasure is only in one box in the whole world."

Ji Fa's palm stopped before reaching the wooden box, the anger on his face still remained, and he said, "Are these broken leaves considered treasures?"

Yuan Xishi said: "Your Majesty does not know that this is not an ordinary leaf, but a tea leaf."

"It's just a different name, so what?" Ji Fa said coldly.

"When Su Yuan was in Beihai, he discovered tea and ordered my father to keep it, saying that he would take it away when he returned to Beihai. But later, Su Yuan disappeared, and the tea has remained in Beihai. Now Your Majesty is the world Lord, so this most precious thing should also be dedicated to His Majesty."

Hearing Yuan Xishi's words meant that he was stronger than Su Yuan, Ji Fa felt a little happy, and heard that even Su Yuan attached great importance to this tea, and was even more curious, asking: "What is the function of this tea? "

"I don't know the end, it's just that Su Yuan said that it can be drunk by pouring boiling water."

"Bring boiling water." Ji Fa was completely whetted.

According to Yuan Xishi, he took out a few pieces of tea leaves and put them in a bowl, poured them into the bowl with boiling water, and saw that the original clear water slowly turned into a light yellow color, and gave off a faint aroma.

Ji Fa passed through his intestines with wine and meat every day, and his mouth was greasy for a long time. When he smelled such a fragrance, Ji Fa immediately widened his eyes, and kept licking his lips with his tongue, looking greedy.

"Be careful, Your Majesty, be careful of someone poisoning you." A waiter came over and hurriedly stopped Ji Fa.

Ji Fa was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly urged: "Come here and try some tea for me."

The waiter agreed, walked to the cup, and waited for the boiling water in the cup to cool down.

Smelling the constant aroma of tea, Ji Fa couldn't wait any longer, and urged the waiter several times, but the waiter had no choice but to hold the boiling teacup with both hands, and drank it in one gulp.

After drinking this cup of boiling tea, the waiter jumped up immediately and made a "wow" sound from his mouth, but he didn't dare to spit it out, so he could only bite the bullet and swallow it.

But Ji Fa didn't care about the waiter's mouth being scalded and blistered, and asked repeatedly: "How is it? How is it?"

The waiter resisted the pain and replied: "Return to Your Majesty, there is no problem."

Ji Fa was delighted, clapped his hands and said, "Come over to me again."

The second cup of scented tea was poured in again, and when the tea was still warm, Ji Fa drank it in one gulp, and sat there with a look of endless aftertaste and nostalgia.

After a long while, Ji Fa put down the teacup and said, "Tea leaves are really a treasure, bring them to me again."

Looking up and seeing Yuan Xishi still standing there, Ji Fa immediately said: "Come here, let me sit down."

Yuan Xishi sat across from Ji Fa, watching Ji Fa drinking tea cup by cup, while talking about the magical effect of tea and the way to make tea.

The "Tea Classic" has a cloud: the tea is cast in an orderly manner, and there is no loss of the appropriateness.First tea and then soup is called lower casting; half soup and tea, then full soup is middle casting; soup first and tea is about upward casting.

It means that if you want to make good tea, you should have good tea, good water, and good tea sets. The steps must be divided into several steps: washing, boiling water, scalding cups, taking tea, and brewing.Although everyone can drink tea in the 22nd century, there are very few people who really know how to drink tea.

Ji Fa was already extremely extravagant, but when he heard that this tea was not only delicious, but also had so many virtues, it was definitely not for the emperor's family to enjoy, so it not only met his extravagant heart, but also made him feel nobler than people.

Therefore, Ji Fa felt more and more that Yuan Xishi was extremely loyal to him, and gave him this peerless tea.

At that moment Ji Fa left Yuan Xishi in the palace, and summoned him to his side every three days, drinking tea and chatting every day.

This stay is one month.

On this day, Ji Fa ordered people to make tea as usual, but the guard lifted up the wooden box that Yuan Xishi paid tribute to Ji Fa with a sad face, and saw that the wooden box was empty, not even a single tea leaf.

Ji Fa couldn't help being anxious, and immediately ordered Yuan Xishi to be summoned, and asked Yuan Xishi to pay tribute to the tea again.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Xishi spread his hands and said, "Return to Your Majesty, if you want to drink tea again, you have to wait until next year. The tea trees in Beihai can only produce one box a year."

Hearing this, Ji Fa was furious and threatened Yuan Xishi to pay tribute tea immediately.But no matter how Ji Fa scolded, Yuan Xishi looked helpless.

It wasn't until he was tired from waiting for Ji Fa that Yuan Xishi said slowly: "If you want to drink tea right away, there is a way, but I'm afraid it can't be done."

Ji said angrily: "As the emperor, if there is anything I can't do, please tell me quickly, what should I do!"
