The fire burned brighter and brighter.
When Xue Rengui and Cao Erhu thought of the high-grade wine described by Li Chengqian, they couldn't help but feel greedy. They looked at the big copper and iron jar in front of them.
Meanwhile, the Demon King of Confusion at the entrance of the palace wall stuck his head out and waited eagerly.
Not long after, as the temperature in the copper and iron jar continued to rise, the water and alcohol poured into it began to evaporate, and floated out along a curved and hollow copper pipe on the top of the copper and iron jar.
The copper pipe was very long and cold. A section of it was buried in the middle of a pile of ice. The last pipe led to a white jade cup.
As the water vapor and alcohol evaporated, a strong and alluring aroma of wine was emitted from the boiler.
" Gulp... gulp..." Xue Rengui and Cao Erhu's faces had already turned red with excitement from the moment the fragrance of the wine spread out.
The two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, stared at the drops of wine that had cooled down at the end of the copper pipe with their eyes wide open and swallowed their saliva.
Fragrant!
The smell of wine in the courtyard became stronger and stronger!
When the alcohol capacity at the end of the copper pipe suddenly increased, Li Chengqian hurriedly replaced the white jade cup with a small wine barrel.
This cup was the so-called wine head! In the early stages of the retortion, a mixture of wine and water with a higher alcohol content was cut off. It contained a lot of white wine aroma substances, so the wine fragrance was extremely strong!
Li Chengqian took a sniff at the white jade cup. The strong smell of alcohol assailed his nose, causing Li Chengqian to cough involuntarily. The wine in the cup spilled quite a bit.
" Your Highness..." Xue Rengui and Cao Erhu frowned. Their hearts ached as they stared at the white jade cup in Li Chengqian's hand.
"It's so choking. This thing is about 70 to 80 degrees Celsius!”
Li Chengqian estimated the alcohol content of the wine. He raised his head and noticed the burning eyes of Xue Rengui and Cao Erhu." Go away, go away. This is just the first batch of wine, but it's too strong. You can only drink it after it's purified with water. If you want to drink it, you can drink the wine that has been distilled later. It should be fifty to sixty degrees. It's enough for you to suffer!"”
When Xue Rengui and Cao Erhu heard Li Chengqian say that they couldn't drink alcohol, they were sad and disappointed. They were even more miserable than when Jia Naijing heard that Lu had given herself away.
But then, when he heard Li Chengqian say that he could drink the wine in the small wine barrel, he was so excited that he beamed and drooled.
At this moment.
Li Chengqian suddenly felt as if he had lost all gravity. He was forcefully lifted up by someone, and the white jade cup filled with wine of 70 to 80 degrees alcohol in his hand was also snatched away.
"What drunkenness? I, Old Cheng, am not afraid!”
Cheng Yaojin held Li Chengqian in one hand and held the white jade cup in the other. He sniffed it and said," Smells good. The Crown Prince didn't lie to me. It really smells good. Good wine, good wine, gululu…"
"Uncle Cheng, don't!" Li Chengqian was anxious. Who was Cheng Yaojin? He was the famous devil king. He was a lawless person. If he drank this 80% alcohol in one gulp and became drunk, who could stop him?
Who knows what big trouble it might cause!
Moreover, if his father, Li Shi Min, knew that the reason why this devil king caused so much trouble was because he drank the top of his distilled liquor, he would probably…
Thinking of Li Shiming's dark face, Li Chengqian shivered and was about to speak to persuade Cheng Yaojin not to drink.
But at this moment…
Cheng Yaojin opened his mouth and gulped it down.
"Lie, the Crown Prince is not lying to me. It is indeed fragrant and strong! Good wine!"
Cheng Yaojin's face quickly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. He let go of Li Chengqian in a daze and took two steps unsteadily.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds…
Then, with a thud, he fell to the ground.
"Uncle Cheng?" Li Chengqian carefully walked forward and shook him twice, but there was no reaction at all.
"Oh no, could this old man have alcohol poisoning? It's over, it's over, we're in big trouble!" Li Chengqian panicked.
"Quick, quickly call the imperial physician!" Li Chengqian's face was slightly pale as he hurriedly roared.
" Yes, yes, this servant will go right away…" From her crown prince's flustered expression, Xiao Bi realized that the situation was not good and ran out of the courtyard.
"Your Highness, what happened to General Cheng?”Shika asked softly.
"Poisoned! This king clearly told him not to drink, but this old fellow didn't listen and insisted on drinking!”Li Chengqian was like an ant on a hot pan.
" Poisoned!!?" Shika, Xue Rengui, and Cao Erhu's expressions changed drastically.
"It's not that kind of poisoning. It's alcohol poisoning! It was a symptom that occurred after drinking strong alcohol! "Fortunately, this old man only drank one glass. It should be only mild alcohol poisoning. It shouldn't be fatal..." Li Chengqian explained.
" Hu Gu, Hu Gu…" A strange sound rang out.
Li Chengqian and the others heard the sound and went over. They saw Cheng Yaojin, who was originally lying motionless on the ground, suddenly turn over and lie facing the sky. His face was flushed red, and his saliva flowed all over the ground. His snoring was deafening.
Li Chengqian's expression froze.
F * ck you, Old Cheng. If you're drunk, so be it. Why didn't you do anything? I thought you had alcohol poisoning! I almost had a heart attack!
