He was so enamored with their movements that he decided to try it himself. While picking tea he received a message that his mother, the Empress Dowager was ill and wished his immediate return to Beijing. He shoved the leaves he had picked into his sleeve and leave for Beijing. Upon his return, he immediately went to visit his mother. She noticed the smell of the dry jing green tea leaves coming from his sleeves, and he had it brewed for her. It is said that the shape of Hangzhou longjing was designed to mimic the appearance of the flattened leaves that the emperor brewed for his mother.
