Chapter 635 22 Silver
Chapter 635 22 Silver
Ningyuxuan.
Hearing Xu Rou's question, Huang Ye answered quite politely.
But the arrogance in her tone was clearly felt by everyone in the room.
After hearing Huang Ye's words, Xu Rou curled her lips in her heart.
Now everyone knows that the tea sold in the No. 1 building in the world is produced from the emperor’s tea farm.
After all, the emperor was just giving face to this bitch. I don't know where her arrogance comes from.
"Your Majesty, the reason I asked this is because I think this tea tastes good to me, so I was thinking about whether I could buy some from you..."
Xu Rou didn't want to bow to Huang Ye.
However, ever since she drank this kind of tea at the last banquet at Ningyuxuan, she has fallen in love with the taste.
But when she asked around, she found out that this kind of tea was only sold in the First Floor of the World.
And according to Shi Yaoyao, the No. 1 restaurant in the world is under the banner of the Huang Mansion.
In fact, it was opened by the Queen.
Nowadays, this kind of tea is sold in limited quantities even in restaurants.
Limited edition is fine.
Especially when she heard that the tea came from the emperor's tea plantation.
Her heart was filled with jealousy.
This was the second time she drank this tea today.
The more she drinks this kind of tea, the more she likes it.
So she asked in front of so many people.
Xu Rou now said that she wanted to buy it, and she also had her own intentions.
She had just taken office as queen and had not yet established herself.
Isn't this a good time to win over these concubines?
If she had been sensible, she would have taken out some tea and given each of them a portion.
I believe that everyone present will be grateful to her after receiving this tea.
She doesn't really care whether others are grateful to her.
The important thing is that she just wants to get the tea for free.
As for spending money to buy it, Xu Rou is not a fool, why should she spend a lot of money to buy this.
Huang Ye saw that Xu Rou was not sincere in what she said.
She and Xu Rou have been fighting since they were young.
In her eyes, Xu Rou's little thoughts were simply not worth mentioning.
What she meant by saying this was that she wanted me to take out the tea and give it to them.
She didn't feel bad about giving it to others, but Xu Rou and Shi Yaoyao...
If she doesn't kill them right now, it means she is too soft-hearted, okay?
"Although this tea is very rare, since Concubine Xu has brought it up, I will not refuse your face..."
Huang Ye looked at Xu Rou with a smile.
"You have to spend a certain amount of money to be eligible to buy this tea at this palace's No. 1 restaurant in the world."
"We can't leave the palace, so even if we want to go there to eat, we can't."
Xu Rou said angrily.
You know, when she first heard Shi Yaoyao say that the No. 1 Building in the World was the property of that bitch Huang Ziye.
Her eyes were red with jealousy.
Now everyone knows that Tianxia Diyilou is the most profitable restaurant in the capital.
How nice it would be if this restaurant belonged to her.
In that way, she would not only have endless money on hand.
She can also use this restaurant to get closer to her cousin the emperor.
"Please calm down, Concubine Xu. I haven't finished what I want to say yet."
The Queen was obviously very unhappy that Concubine Xu interrupted her.
Xu Rou endured it again and again and didn't say the word "bitch" out loud.
She also knew that the distance between her and the queen was extremely far.
If the queen wanted to torture her, it would be like a joke.
Moreover, she can no longer rely on her aunt's power to bully anyone she wants.
So she had to stand up and apologize to Huang Ye.
"It was my fault just now, I hope Your Majesty will not blame me."
"Well, seeing that you are so sincere in admitting your mistakes, I will not bother with you."
Huang Ye looked at Xu Rou with a forced smile and spoke softly.
Her words successfully made Xu Rou angry again.
"Just now, I heard from Concubine Xu that she wanted to buy this kind of tea. Since she asked, I will not refuse her this favor."
Huang Ye looked at Xu Rou with a smile.
"Then I will sell it to you at the restaurant's price, twenty taels of silver per pound. I wonder how much you want to buy, Xupin?"
"Twenty... twenty taels..."
Xu Rou was so shocked that she stuttered.
The Queen is such a bitch, she actually dares to ask for such a high price.
Why didn't she grab it?
"Yes... twenty taels of silver per pound. This is the price I'm selling it to you. You should know that outside the palace, you can't buy this kind of tea even if you have twenty taels of silver."
Huang Ye said slowly.
At this time, everyone in the room looked at Xu Rou.
Even though they had just found out that the tea they were drinking was so precious.
And listen to the tone of the Queen.
This kind of tea is not easy to buy outside even if you want to pay.
They can't afford such precious tea.
They should take advantage of this time in Ningyuxuan and have a few more drinks.
"Xupin, didn't you just say you wanted to buy some tea? The Queen is waiting for your reply."
Seeing Xu Rou holding the teacup and drinking tea without saying anything, Gao Meiren couldn't help but ask.
Xu Rou now wished she could take a needle and sew up Gao Meiren's torn mouth.
This bitch Gao Meiren has found a backer again.
She is flattering the queen and dragging herself down.
"This tea is so expensive, I think it's a bit of a waste to buy it and drink it."
Xu Rou smiled at Huang Ye guiltily.
"Your Majesty is so generous that you gave us such precious tea to drink. We are so grateful..."
Huang Ye couldn't help but nodded.
As expected, the harem is the most challenging place.
Haven't you seen a fool like Xu Rou who also knows how to speak in a roundabout way?
If it were in the past, she would have jumped up and pointed at her own nose and cursed.
However, now she wouldn't dare to scold him even if she was asked to do so.
"What Xupin meant is that you don't want to buy this tea anymore."
Logically speaking, Xu Rou has given in.
After all, when she first said it, she said it would cost money to buy it.
If this happened to someone else, the matter would have been over.
Huang Ye deliberately held on to this matter, but he was actually just idle.
Life in the harem is so boring.
If Xu Rou is not taken out for a walk, she will feel unhappy.
"Empress, Concubine Xu is thinking that you are selling it too expensively. If you sell it cheaper, she might buy it."
Gao Meiren is out again trying to make a presence felt.
"Empress Gao is so good at talking, but you didn't see how much the deposed queen cared for you back then. She still got rid of the baby in your belly anyway."
Xu Rou is not afraid of Lady Gao.
It was obvious that she meant to sow discord by saying these words.
At first, Concubine Gao was obsessed with the deposed queen, but the deposed queen never let her go behind her back.
Now she is clinging to the new queen, so the ending might be the same.
Of course, the purpose of Xu Rou bringing up this matter was also to touch the heart of this beautiful lady Gao.
