Hua Yan smiled and sat down on the couch beside Empress Dowager.
Maid Zhou hurriedly instructed someone to brew the finest green tea and placed it in front of Hua Yan.
Holding the tea cup, Hua Yan took a sip and said with a smile, "This is the new tea from Yunwu Mountain this year, and there were only a few boxes in total."
Maid Zhou took over the conversation with a smile, "This was brought back by Crown Prince when he returned to the capital from Lin'an. Empress Dowager said that after having drunk tea all her life, she hadn't realized that Lin'an's green tea is the best."
Empress Dowager nodded with a smile and said, "Indeed it is."
Hua Yan pursed her lips and smiled, "Yunwu Mountain is shrouded in mist all year round. From the tea's growth to sprouting and then flowering, it's baptized by the mist daily. Its natural growing environment makes it different from other teas. However, the yield is extremely low, and it's more difficult to harvest than ordinary tea."
