While Zhu Yuanzhang was sighing, he and Zhu Di started to let themselves loose in the Bejewelled Nectar, one glass after another.
The rice wine tasted delicious and did not have the spiciness of white wine. It even had a hint of sweetness, but the aftertaste was very strong.
As the two of them drank, they began to feel their tongues grow bigger.
Zhu Gaoye was fine. Because Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were drinking the jar of wine, he only had one or two bowls of wine occasionally. Therefore, Zhu Gaoye was completely sober.
As they drank more and more rice wine, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di realized that something was wrong. They were probably going to get drunk.
Zhu Yuanzhang sensed that the alcohol was about to kick in and was afraid that he would spout nonsense after he was completely drunk and give himself away.
Hence, she quickly pulled Zhu Di and said,
"This old man suddenly remembered that a new batch of northern goods arrived in the shop today. They're waiting for us to go back and inspect them.”
He stood up and was about to leave when Zhu Gaoye was surprised."
"Are you in such a hurry? I haven't finished eating yet."
The hotpot on the table was still cooking, and the sauce in the dipping dish was also emitting an alluring fragrance.
Zhu Yuanzhang quickly waved his hand."
"I really can't today. I have to go back first.”
When Zhu Gaoye heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he felt pity in his heart. If the two of them could get drunk in his own house, when they woke up again, they would most likely become one of his own.
Because once a person's defenses were broken, they would trust the other party without reservation.
He was about to succeed, but he failed at the last step.
However, Zhu Gaoye wasn't in a hurry. This kind of thing couldn't be rushed except by hard work. It was better to do it this way first and then plan slowly.
Anyway, with the Fran Machine Cannon and flintlock, he would have plenty of opportunities to meet the two of them again, not to mention the Saint-slaying Technique.
Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoye said,"
"If that's the case, I won't ask you to stay any longer. However, looking at you, I'll send two people to send you home.”
Hearing Zhu Gaoye's words, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand repeatedly. If he asked you to send us back, wouldn't everything be exposed?
"No need. We can still handle this bit of alcohol. We can go back by ourselves.”
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's firm attitude, Zhu Gaoye had no choice but to give up on sending them back.
"Men, send the two distinguished guests out!”
Zhu Gaoye shouted at the door,
Then, he said to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di,
"Then you two be careful on the road!”
A servant entered and led Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di out.
"Little friend, please wait!"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di nodded and walked out.
Under the guidance of the servants, they quickly arrived at the entrance of the manor.
"Esteemed guests, please be careful on your journey.”
After watching the two of them leave Zhu Gaoye's mansion, the servant closed the door and went back to report.
Zhu Yuanzhang pulled Zhu Di out of the door unsteadily. He was already drunk.
When the wind blew, he couldn't even stand properly.
The Jinyiwei hidden in the dark saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's staggering steps and could not help but turn pale with fright. They thought that the two of them had encountered some danger.
He quickly ran over to support them. These Brocade Guards were dressed like commoners, and their movements were very natural, just like an ordinary passerby who saw the drunk old man and reached out to help him.
He wasn't worried about arousing suspicion.
"Your Majesty, Prince Yan, are you alright?”
A Jinyiwei major asked with concern.
With the help of the Jinyiwei, Zhu Yuanzhang stood firm and said to the Jinyiwei Major,
"Don't panic. We're fine. We just drank too much.”
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words and smelling the faint smell of alcohol from the two of them, the Jinyiwei Junior Colonel heaved a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, do you want to return to the palace?"
The Embroidered Uniform Guards 'major asked carefully.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and did not say anything else. Several Brocade Guards supported Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, who were swaying unsteadily, and walked towards the Imperial Palace.
At the same time, he sent the Jinyiwei to quickly get a carriage over. Not long after, the carriage arrived in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.
The Commander of the Brocade Guards who had also received the news also rushed over. The state of the two people shocked the Commander of the Brocade Guards.
After confirming that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were not in danger, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di climbed into the carriage with the help of the Commander of the Jinyiwei and returned to the palace.
After returning to the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's state shocked the chief eunuch. After asking, he found out that the Emperor and Prince Yan were drunk.
So he quickly ordered the imperial kitchen to make two bowls of hangover soup. After serving the two of them to drink, he stood at the side and took care of the two of them.
The effect of the rice wine came and went quickly. After a bowl of hangover soup, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di quickly woke up.
Zhu Yuanzhang quickly recalled everything that had happened today and slapped his thigh in regret.
"Drinking is really a hindrance. We really shouldn't be so greedy and delay this important matter.”
"I didn't get any of the Franc Cannons or flintlocks!”
When the chief eunuch saw that the two of them had woken up, he quickly put down the towels that he had prepared earlier and let the two of them wipe their faces.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Di took the towel and whispered,
"Not only did I not get the Fran Machine Cannon and flintlock, I did not even get the Saint-slaying Technique from yesterday.”
Hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was wiping his face with a towel, suddenly paused and took the towel off his face.
Then, he threw it at Zhu Di's face.
"Isn't it all because of you? Why are you so greedy for rice wine? You keep drinking bowl after bowl.”
"Those who don't know better would think that he's a country bumpkin from somewhere. He looks like he hasn't seen the world and doesn't have the demeanor of the King of Yan at all.”
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly fly into a rage, the chief eunuch couldn't help but reveal a trace of surprise. This kind of rage wasn't due to anger, but a kind of embarrassment after his thoughts were exposed. He wasn't really angry.
Therefore, the chief eunuch wisely kept his ears and pretended not to hear the argument between the father and son.
Zhu Di also felt extremely wronged when he was suddenly hit by the towel.
It was clearly her father who had picked up the bowl and drank endlessly, saying that he had finally found the feeling from back then.
It was not enough for him to drink alone, but he had to pull him along to drink. Now, he had to blame himself for the delay. Who could he reason with?
However, Zhu Di did not dare to say these words out loud. If he said these words at this time, it would only add fuel to the fire.
"Imperial Father is right. Your son will not dare to drink too much in the future.”
