As soon as the tea party started, the conversation immediately began.
"I heard His Majesty was chosen by the goddess of light."
“I'm lucky to be given the power of light.”
“Wah, great once.”
“I knew it from the beginning.you are special, so you must have lifted the curse of His Majesty. ”
“If you have the ability of various languages, can you read books from other countries?”
"Yes." Yeah."
“Then you can definitely read books from the East.”
"Of course."
The women showed interest in the magic of light and the language skills I had.
"Just, what happened to Howard after what he said about before?"
"I heard that the priest was in prison."
“He is not a priest anymore, and it is all because of his own deeds. He spread baseless rumors from many people.”
"You know what? He even lied about tancinol even though it can be cured only with fruit.”
The topic of conversation naturally shifted to the topic of priests and scurvy.
Some of them blatantly criticized him while others kept their mouths shut.
The Kensways were a respectable family, and many nobles followed them like they were gods.
Everyone knows it was Howard Kensway's fault, but still can't admit it.
But as time passes and their sins are revealed, they will eventually change their minds.
“But good things have happened in this case. Husband and son start eating fruit.”
“What is a good thing? They have taken the fruit that I usually eat, and I don't like to see it.”
“Haha, really?”
“But it's a relief because we ate it ourselves. I hope the Emperor works well so that fruits do not become scarce. ”
We talk without restrictions because there are fewer people. However, as the subject of the story flowed towards the Emperor, Countess Chardin coughed awkwardly.
He thought it was inappropriate to talk about it in front of me.
As Countess Chardin gestured, the other wives quickly shut up and changed the subject.
"Right, Your Majesty should not worry."
"Absolutely. Your Majesty is as responsible as Your Majesty. So you must be living comfortably.”
"of course. He has so many women eyeing him in seven years, yet he hasn't been able to forget you!”
"Mrs. Marcelle!”
When the story of the women who were after Blake came out, the other wives shouted in shock.
Bu Marcelle also realized her mistake and quickly covered her mouth with her hands.
"I'm sorry."
“It's okay.”
I already know, and it doesn't matter. After all, as Bu Marcelle said, she never forgot me.
However, the atmosphere froze in an instant.
I'm fine, but the other wives seem to be on guard. Suddenly, someone broke the silence and said,
"By the way, Your Majesty, you look so beautiful today."
"Frightly so."
"You look great in that dress."
Perhaps to revive the atmosphere, the wives praised me.
“I've been surprised since I entered Sephia Palace. Of course, you are beautiful at all times, but I think you are even more dazzling today.”
These days, not only Tenstheon and Blake, but also Melissa and Terry tried to give me something when they saw me, so I gained a little weight.
I was very thin before, so I was satisfied because I look healthier now. I think my skin is getting better too. But I don't think that's a drastic difference…
"Absolutely. I think your skin is glowing. Do you have any secrets?”
"Please let me know if you have any secrets."
The women want to know about my cosmetics and other things.
Normally, I would wave my hand to say nothing has changed, but today I said something,
“Actually, I've been drinking Eastern tea lately.”
“Teh east?”
"Yes, that's a tea called 'teh Taekri'."
"Is there such a tea?"
"This is a tea that was exclusive to the imperial family in Chang before."
The rumors about me quickly disappeared, but the bad rumors about Chang still remained. Perhaps it was because of their anxiety about an unknown territory.
Nevertheless, the eyes of the women shone brightly as I said that.
“Where can I buy it?”
"When the trade with Chang begins, the tea will enter."
“It sure took a long time.”
"I'm afraid of that."
I looked towards the desperate woman and asked implicitly.
"Do you want tea?"
"Of course."
"Your Majesty, can you give it to us?"
Everyone said it because they wanted to try the tea and hopefully, they would forget about the vague fear towards Chang.
I smiled in my heart.
"I can't, I've finished tea from Chang."
As soon as I say it, there is an***** regret here and there.
“But don't be disappointed.I planted tea seeds in the garden.”
"Where did you plant it?"
The women looked around the garden decorated with flowers and which stones.
"Here."
"Your Majesty, you're overreacting."
"That's right, are you making fun of us."
An angry complaint filled with regret erupted.
"No way."
I smiled lightly and reached out to the ground.
When the light from my hand covered the ground, green shoots began to appear.
Small shoots grow quickly. After growing enough tea leaves to harvest, I retracted my hand.
"Wow…"
At that moment, people started praising me again.
“I've never seen anything like it before!”
"What is that where is light?"
“Yes, that's where the light is. Crown Prince can also do it.”
I smiled lightly and gestured to the servants. The servants came quickly and picked up the tea leaves. I began to dry the tea leaves with stones where the fire.
The servants took the dried tea leaves and brewed the tea.
Actually, I haven't finished my taekri tea yet. But I showed them planting tea leaves on purpose.
It was because some people still believed in the false rumors and looked at me suspiciously, even though I announced the fact that I had mana light.
With this, they won't doubt me anymore. Not only that, but the fact that I am a true light witch will spread throughout the community.
It's going to spread faster than Howard's rumors.
Tea was placed on each table of the women.
I drank the tea first because I had the highest status, but it was also to remove their vigilance towards the food they had never seen before.
"Everyone, try."
I drank first, and asked the women to try it.
"Very delicious."
“Ya, it feels good.”
“I think it feels more luxurious because it's exclusive tea.”
Fortunately, there are good reviews about taekri tea. In a friendly atmosphere, I asked a question.
"Do you know where black tea comes from?"
“Isn't it from the Ganua Empire? I know that black tea has become popular and widespread under the influence of Empress Rosanne of Ganua.”
Ms. Marcelle answered quickly to make amends.
“Half is right. Empress Rosanne brought me black tea. But black tea is not really from the Ganua Empire .”
“Where did it come from then?”
"The Chang Empire."
"Chang Empire?"
“Yes, the tea I drank in Chang was sent to Ganua.”
The women looked quite surprised to hear that black tea actually came from Chang.
It was natural to get such a response since it was information that could only be learned by looking at the history books of the Ganua Empire.
I've heard that black tea comes from China in my life before. This world and my last world looked different but there were many things in common.
“Paper also comes from Chang. This is the first time the Asteris Empire and Chang established diplomatic relations, but before that, our culture has influenced each other.”
Tonight, the origin of black tea will spread along with my other stories.
Knowing that there is already a culture from Chang that we know, the anxiety and rejection of future trade will be reduced.
I smiled and drank the tea again. Suddenly, the entrance was noisy.
A tall and charming young man was walking down this path.
"I greet the Crown Prince, the imperial light."
Blake's sudden appearance prompted the women to hurry up and give their greetings.
"Blake, no, Your Majesty, what are you doing here?"
I spoke quickly because we were in front of other people.
"I'm here to see you."
he said lovingly while making eye contact with me.
"Gosh my god."
“She is also very loving..”.
The women spoke with envy. I'm a little embarrassed, but Blake doesn't seem to show that at all.
"Do you enjoy the party?"
"Ah yes. Your majesty!"
“We are so happy!”
When Blake asked, people were surprised and answered back. I was surprised too.
I've never seen him chat lightly with another woman.
“Your Majesty and I have prepared everything for this party. I hope you like it."
"Yes, of course."
“This is more beautiful than any other party I have ever participated in.”
When I saw Blake, who led the conversation with dignity and gentleness, I naturally smiled. I feel like he came here intentionally to help me.
"Today, I prepared a present for His Majesty."
Huh huh? A bounty?I was so surprised when I saw Blake.
“I hope many people will enjoy it too.”
He came to me after he finished speaking. As soon as Blake held my hand, fireworks exploded into the sky.
At that moment, a cry came out from the mouths of the women. I was shocked and looked at Blake.
"You didn't see this right then."
He whispered softly in my ear. Then, my face turned red as I recalled what happened on the day of the previous national establishment.
Colorful fireworks, reminiscent of the day of the national establishment embroider the black sky.
I forgot that there were other people around me, and I saw beautiful fireworks with my head resting on Blake's shoulder.
