Chapter 2235: Sitting and drinking tea, taking photos
Zhixi had already known about Wang Taohua and was not surprised.
"Fellow."
For the sake of Emperor Taiwei, Zhixi naturally would not treat Wang Taohua coldly. She put away the innate coldness and nodded in response.
The Empress...she...she called me fellow Taoist!
Hearing the sound, Wang Taohua's body trembled, and the excitement on her face became more obvious. She almost screamed out, but fortunately she held it back and did not embarrass herself.
After saying hello, Zhixi shifted her gaze and walked towards the Star Core of Time. She tapped her toes lightly and lotus flowers bloomed wherever she stepped.
"Are you sure you want me to repay the favor I did you that day in this way?"
After getting a certain distance closer, Zhixi stopped, raised her head slightly and stared at the Years Star Core hanging high in the sky, transmitting her voice through the air, demanding a definite answer.
Emperor Taiwei answered without hesitation, "Yes."
In this case, Zhixi will of course fulfill her promise.
Then, she turned and walked towards Wang Taohua, stopping a few feet away and saying bluntly, "Fellow Daoist, would you like to have some tea and chat with me, and take some photos?"
Doom!
These words were like thunder, hitting Wang Taohua's head hard.
The dream scene is now happening in reality.
At this moment, all the meditation and calming methods that Wang Taohua had practiced lost their effectiveness. After being stunned for a moment, she could no longer hide her excitement.
After a long moment, Wang Taohua said in a trembling voice, "Being able to make tea and chat with the Emperor is the greatest blessing of my life."
Zhixi said indifferently: "Daoyou are too kind."
Emperor Taiwei: “…”
So I am nothing!
Although Emperor Taiwei didn't care about Wang Taohua's thoughts, he remained silent. If there was a chance in the future, he would let Chen Qingyuan beat him up, and he would pretend not to see it and just say a few perfunctory words to comfort him afterwards.
The scene changes to a location at the end of the old land.
A square stone table covered with marks of time, with red mist floating around it from time to time. The world inside is mysterious and unpredictable.
There are two stone benches facing each other next to the table.
On the table, there is a pot of hot tea and two purple clay teacups.
"Emperor, please take a seat."
Wang Taohua didn't dare to sit down first. She pointed to an empty seat opposite her, and said it respectfully with a smile on her face.
"You are too polite, fellow Daoist. Please sit with me."
Zhixi did not act like an ancient emperor. Firstly, she took it seriously and wanted to end the cause and effect for the sake of Emperor Taiwei; secondly, she had heard of Wang Taohua's extraordinary deeds and knew that he was an extraordinary person who should not be underestimated.
"After you."
Wang Taohua still maintained a respectful posture, smiling and whispering.
Zhixi no longer hesitated and had to sit down early.
After Zhixi sat down, Wang Taohua first poured her a cup of tea, then bowed again, and then sat down opposite her, sitting upright, her body slightly stiff due to nervousness.
Emperor Taiwei, who witnessed this scene, was speechless again. In all their long acquaintances, he had never seen Wang Taohua respect him so much.
There is a huge difference in the way they treat people.
Especially Wang Taohua's flattering smile, which was like a sharp thorn piercing Taiwei Emperor's body, making him feel itchy all over and a little uncomfortable.
It’s just sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, is it that outrageous?
In order not to be angered by Wang Taohua, Emperor Taiwei closed his eyes, stopped paying attention, and let them handle it on their own.
Emperor Taiwei has already done what he promised to Wang Taohua.
The empress whom she had worshipped for most of her life could not only meet her up close, but also sit and drink tea with her. No one could understand Wang Taohua's feelings.
"When were you born?"
Zhixi took a sip of hot tea, raised her eyes and looked at Wang Taohua. Her deep gaze seemed to penetrate into the depths of her soul, leaving her with no secrets at all.
Wang Taohua's whole body tensed up when Zhixi stared at her.
"I was born..."
After a moment of hesitation, Wang Taohua managed to control her emotions a little, organized her words, and spoke slowly.
For the next period of time, the two drank tea and chatted.
Most of the questions were asked by Zhixi and answered by Wang Taohua.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Zhixi wants to know Wang Taohua's core secret, she only needs to ask and she will definitely get a response.
When the empress asks questions, you should tell her everything without holding back, and there should be no hiding anything.
Wang Taohua's admiration for the empress is deep in her bones, and others cannot empathize with her.
"what do you want to say?"
Zhixi actually didn't understand why Wang Taohua admired her so much.
"I...I don't know."
Wang Taohua, who has been scheming all his life, now acts like a young man who has not experienced much of the world. He speaks hesitantly and is at a loss.
"Would you like to listen to my story?"
Zhixi had no intention of being perfunctory and paid attention to the other person's feelings.
"Yes! Of course I do!"
Wang Taohua was flattered and said quickly.
"When I was young..."
So, Zhixi began to tell her life story. As long as it didn't involve secrets, she could tell him anything.
This chat lasted for several hours.
Wang Taohua was fascinated by what she heard and never thought that one day she would be able to gain a deep understanding of the empress's life.
Wang Taohua remembered every word the empress said.
Moreover, the scene of the two people making tea and chatting was recorded in detail by a top-quality photo stone, without missing any details.
This move naturally had Zhixi's consent, otherwise how could the photo stone in the secular world bear the true face of the emperor.
The photo stone cannot be replicated and is unique in the world.
If you force a copy, you will destroy yourself.
This was the first time Zhixi had spoken so much, and she had really tried her best. Normally, she would be very frugal with words and would never do this.
After chatting for a while, Zhixi took out a piece of jade from her arms.
The jade is crystal clear, and a peach blossom is carved on it, which looks lifelike.
"For you."
Zhixi gently placed the jade on the table, snapped her fingers, and a soft force pushed the jade in front of Wang Taohua.
"This is……"
Wang Taohua lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the jade stone engraved with the peach blossom mark. Her heart trembled suddenly. She looked up at Zhixi with a complicated look.
"This is a small thing I carved casually. It's a gift. It's not precious, so please don't despise it."
Zhixi's expression was cold as she explained the details of the jade.
"The gift given by the Emperor is the most precious thing in the world."
Wang Taohua really couldn't sit still this time. The emotions that she had suppressed with great difficulty erupted like a volcano. She immediately stood up, her eyes moving back and forth between the jade on the table and Zhixi.
His body shook slightly a few times, his voice trembled, he was overjoyed and at a loss.
Giving this gift means Zhixi repaying the favor.
It's over, I don't want to say more.
Wang Taohua carefully picked up the jade from the table, his fingertips trembling as his excitement grew. This piece of jade, engraved with the peach blossom mark, meant a great deal to him, more precious than any treasure in the world.
This life is worth it!
At this moment, Wang Taohua's soul was sublimated and her life was fulfilled.
