Dear Commander-in-Chief



She had wanted to make things difficult for Yun Qiao, a commoner girl who had turned into a phoenix, but she hadn’t expected that she would end up being the one to be choked by Gong Sheng. At this moment, the wife of the Prime Minister of s nation had an extremely ugly expression on her face.

Yun Qiao didn’t understand their conversation and didn’t know what they were talking about.

All she knew was that her hand was hurting.

The part of her skin that was frozen and torn by the railing was tightly held by Gong Sheng’s big hand and the wound was about to explode.

If it wasn’t for the cold weather and the rapid solidification of blood, her palm would probably be bleeding right now.

Yun Qiao took a deep breath and took the opportunity when Gong Sheng wasn’t paying attention to what he was saying to struggle his hand out of his palm.

It hurt.

However, although Gong Sheng was talking to the wife of the Prime Minister of s nation, his reaction was still very sharp.

The moment he felt her little hand withdraw, he immediately grabbed her and forcefully continued to hold her little hand tightly, not allowing her to leave his side even half a step!

Woman, you still want to escape?

No!

Yun Qiao was in so much pain that she was on the verge of tears.

Suddenly, a man’s deep voice sounded in her ear, “Bear with it. Even if it’s an Act, you have to act until the last moment. Otherwise...”

Or you can forget about the big house and the small money.

Although, this last sentence, Gong Sheng did not explicitly say.

But for a second, Jonjo got the hint of a threat.

Damn it!

She extorted the terms, but now it’s a man threatening her.

Could it be that this cheap husband could see so quickly that she was short of money and wanted a big, spacious house.

Yun Qiao took a deep breath and held back her tears.

Fine, let’s Act!

If you don’t give me enough money, I’ll fall out with you!

Yun Qiao put on a smile and continued to smile at the ladies of the various countries.

They quickly walked around the back garden. After they were done, palace saint invited everyone to drink tea in the tea room.

The tea ceremony in the empire was very particular. There were tea masters who specialized in this and performed kungfu tea for everyone.

The madams looked at the tea master in amazement and played a trick on the small pot of tea.

A moment later, a small teacup filled with a refreshing fragrance was placed in front of everyone.

S nation was the closest to the empire, and the land was close to each other. Therefore, some of the local customs were also similar.

The madams of S Nation were the first to pick up the Teacup, sip it, and drink it in one gulp. “This tea is not bad!”

As she spoke, she glanced at Yun Qiao.

Yun Qiao was still taking her time, holding the Teacup and sniffing it.

The Countess of S laughed mockingly, trying to get back the face she had lost with the palace saint, she purposely raised her voice and said, “I’m afraid you haven’t learned the way of tea, have you? Such a good tea tastes bland after sniffing it. Tasting tea is a job for the upper class, not for ordinary people who are tired from walking!”

Drinking water from an ox was like using a bucket to feed an ox to fill it with water. It was used to describe people who were thirsty and drank tea like water. It was usually used to ridicule vulgar people.

When the interpreter heard this, his face froze and he didn’t know how to translate it.

Yun Qiao didn’t understand foreign goods, so she still took her own temper and sniffed the tea slowly. Then she tasted it slowly and drank it gracefully.

Without batting an eyelid, palace saint replied on behalf of Yun Qiao:

“Our Empire’s tea ceremony is very profound and requires a complete set of etiquette. Brewing, appreciating, smelling, and drinking, all four steps are indispensable.”

“When she picked up the Teacup just now and observed the color of the tea, it was ‘appreciating the tea’, then sniffing it was ‘smelling the tea’, and then sipping it slowly was ‘drinking the tea’. Those who don’t understand would naturally not be able to see the mystery behind it.”
