Traveling through ancient times, the spy princess had everything going smoothly

After the applause died down, Qing He continued:

"Today, our teahouse officially opens. This is an elegant and quiet place that we have carefully created.

Here, everyone can taste the purest tea fragrance and feel the most comfortable time.

Next, we will bring you a wonderful tea art performance. "

I saw several tea artists walking towards me. They were wearing the same simple and elegant tea clothes with fluttering sashes, as if they had walked out of a painting.

Several people sat down gracefully at the tea table, with peaceful smiles on their faces and focused and gentle eyes.

Their movements were in unison. They first carefully washed the tea set with clean water. Their movements were gentle and slow, as if they were protecting a precious treasure.

Then they gently picked up the tea tray, scooped up an appropriate amount of tea leaves, and slowly put them into the teapot. The tea leaves seemed to come alive in their hands.

Then, they lifted the teapot and raised the boiling hot water high up, letting the water pour down like a silver thread and rush into the teapot.

Instantly, the aroma of tea rose and filled the entire space. They gently shook the teapot to allow the tea leaves to fully soak.

After a short pause, they poured the brewed tea into exquisite teacups one by one. The tea was crystal clear and exuded a charming luster.

Each of their movements is so precise and full of charm; raising hands, turning wrists, and leaning forward all display a unique sense of beauty.

The fingers of several people shuttled among the tea sets like dancing elves, interpreting the essence of tea art to the fullest.

The whole process was smooth and poetic, just like one person, which made the audience intoxicated and felt as if they were in a quiet and beautiful world of tea, feeling the endless charm and peace brought by tea art.

After the performance, the audience was still immersed in the tea art performance. After a few breaths, thunderous applause broke out.

Qing He went on stage to thank the tea artist and continued:

“In addition to the tea art performance, our teahouse has also specially invited well-known storytellers Lin Zhongzheng and Li Shuhua to bring us wonderful stories.

From now on, Mr. Lin will bring you "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" every morning, and Mr. Li will tell you "Journey to the West" in the afternoon. This is a unique story in Dasheng and it is absolutely wonderful. I hope everyone will spend an unforgettable time in the fragrance of tea and the story.

Now please welcome Mr. Lin Zhongzheng to the stage."

While Qinghe was speaking, the servant had already prepared all the props.

At this time, the storyteller Lin Zhongzheng came on stage. He struck the wake-up stick, and the clear and loud storytelling voice came through the air:

"The vast Qiantang River flows endlessly day and night around Niujia Village in Lin'an and flows eastward into the sea.

There are dozens of black cypress trees lined up by the river, their leaves are as red as fire, it is the perfect August weather.

The wild grass in front of and behind the village had just begun to turn yellow, and under the setting sun, it looked even more desolate.

A group of villagers, including men, women and a dozen children, gathered under two big pine trees, listening attentively to a thin old man speaking.

The man who was speaking was about fifty years old, and his blue cloth robe had long been washed to a blue-gray color.

I heard him clinking two pieces of pearwood wood together a few times, and then he struck a small 亂鼓 with the bamboo stick in his left hand.

Singing: "The peach blossoms are ownerless, the tobacco is endless and brings the crows. Several ruined walls surround the old wells, they have always been people's homes."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To know what happens next, please wait for the next episode! "

The story ends with a clap of the wake-up stick.

An hour passed unknowingly. Everyone drank tea and ate snacks while listening to the book. They were mesmerized and immersed in the story. When the explanation was over, everyone was still not satisfied and started discussing:

Audience A: "Oh my, this story is so wonderful! I feel like I am in Niu Village."

Audience B: "Yes, yes, Mr. Lin's description is so vivid. This hour has passed so quickly."

Audience C: "I can't wait to know what will happen next."

Audience member D: "That's right, I have to come tomorrow?"

Listener E: "Haha, I have to come early tomorrow to get a good seat and continue listening."

Qing He walked onto the stage with a smile: "Do you think what Mr. Lin said is good?"

Everyone shouted in unison: "Good!"

Qing He: “Our teahouse is open for free for the first seven days after opening. Tickets are required for entry after seven days.

Everyone is welcome to continue listening to Mr. Lin’s lecture here tomorrow morning and let Mr. Lin lead us into the wonderful world of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Today at 3 p.m., Mr. Li Shuhua will bring you a new story "Journey to the West".

This is a shocking and fascinating story that will be loved by both adults and children.

To avoid regrets, please bring your children and wife with you."

The audience nodded one after another and slowly dispersed with expressions of wanting more, discussing the story as they walked.

In the private room, the emperor, empress, crown prince, and everyone from General Qin's mansion and General Weiwu's mansion were also immersed in this lively atmosphere.

The emperor stroked his beard and said with a smile, "This teahouse has a unique flavor. Today's opening is quite interesting."

The Queen smiled and nodded, and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty, the storyteller's story is indeed wonderful, making people feel as if they are actually there."

The prince said:

"I also think this teahouse is very interesting, especially the Legend of the Condor Heroes, which sounds very exciting.

I don’t know who wrote this story, what a talent! ”

General Qin laughed: "I also want to know who wrote it. It's a genius."

The mighty general also nodded in agreement:

"Yes, today's opening is really an eye-opener. I wonder what the story of Journey to the West will be in this afternoon?"

The prince couldn't help but ask curiously:

"This Journey to the West also sounds like a very interesting story. I wonder how exciting it will be."

The emperor smiled and said to the queen:

"Since we are all out today, why don't we come back at 3 pm this afternoon to listen and see what is so unique about this story."

The prince said, "Father, mother, why don't we go to Ye'er's Yuelai Restaurant for lunch? I heard that the dishes there were all thought up by my brother and sister-in-law, so they must be delicious."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone nodded with expectant expressions on their faces.

The emperor laughed and said, "Very good, then let's go to Yuelai Restaurant to try this new dish."

The group came to Yuelai Restaurant in a mighty procession. As soon as they entered the door, they smelled bursts of tempting aroma.

The waiters warmly welcomed them to the private room on the second floor, and soon, one dish after another with delicious looks, aroma and flavor was served.

Everyone tasted these novel delicacies and praised them highly.

The Queen smiled and said to the Crown Princess:

"Your sister-in-law is really smart. She can come up with such delicious dishes. It's really unforgettable."

The Crown Princess smiled and replied, "Mother, you are right. I have a great appetite after eating these dishes!"

Thinking of her soon-to-be-born grandson, the Queen Mother smiled lovingly and said:

"Yu'er, if you think it's delicious, I'll ask the chef to go to the Prince's Mansion and teach you how to make it. Then you can enjoy this delicacy in the mansion in the future."

Bai Shuyu looked at the queen gratefully and said, "Thank you for your concern, mother."
