Later Tang's second emperor, Emperor Mingzong Li Siyuan, when he first went to the court to make him tea, he saw a white mist rising from the cup, and slowly a white crane appeared and nodded three times at Emperor Mingzong, and then flew towards the blue sky. Emperor Mingzong Li Siyuan looked surprised, when he looked at the tea leaves in the cup were all hanging up in the air, like spring shoots that broke through the earth, and after a while they slowly sank, like snowflakes falling. The emperor asked the attendant curiously, and only then did he know that this was probably because of the use of the white crane spring (i.e. willow well) water in Junshan to soak yellow feathers (i.e. silver needle tea). Because the brewing of Junshan silver needles is, the tea buds stand in the hanging cup, extremely beautiful, Emperor Mingzong was very happy in his heart, and ordered the Junshan silver needle to be set as a tribute tea, and since then the Junshan silver needle has been famous and has been fragrant for thousands of years.
