I have soaked a green fruit in this tea, which can clear the heart and reduce the fire, and refresh the throat. You will feel a different feeling when you drink slowly." After listening to it, Emperor Taizong slowly tasted it, and as expected, he gradually tasted the taste. The tea is bitter at first, but gradually feels refreshing and slightly sweet.

Later, Emperor Taizong specially named this green olive fruit "六文" in order to thank Wei Zheng, a famous minister who was upright and honest, because of the harmony of taking good medicine and the words were unpleasant.
