"Father, if you like this jar of wine, why don't you take it?”
Li Chengqian saw Li Shiming holding the jar of wine and couldn't put it down, so he said to him lightly.
"This isn't too good!"
Li Shiming said, ignoring his conscience. In fact, he really wanted to take it away.
"The whole world belongs to you, let alone a mere jar of wine. I believe that when Imperial Grandfather wakes up and finds out that you took this jar of wine, he won't pursue it too much!”
Li Chengqian's words immediately hit Li Shiming's heart.
Li Shi Min took the jar of wine and nodded happily.
"Chengqian, you're right. The world belongs to Imperial Father. Imperial Father can have whatever he wants!”
After saying that, Li Shiming took the jar of wine away without any shame.
Li Chengqian didn't tell Li Shiming that he made this jar of wine himself. Anyway, Li Shiming would know this secret sooner or later. Li Chengqian didn't need to tell him.
……
That night, Li Shimin had set up a small banquet to reward his meritorious officials.
Qin Shubao, Yuchi Gong, Cheng Yaojin, and the other generals who had followed Li Shimin for many years were all gathered together. Among them were civil officials like Changsheng Wuji and Fang Xuanling.
The civil and military officials were all very curious. Li Shimin had just sat on the throne and should step up his efforts to consolidate the imperial power. How could he be in such a hurry to eat and enjoy himself?
"Your Majesty, you've just ascended the throne, but the seven sects and five families are disobeying orders internally, and the Eastern and Western Turks are eyeing you from the outside.”
Zhangsun Wuji stood up and advised Li Shiming.
"Minister Zhangsun, I know what you're talking about, but I got a jar of wine today and want to share it with everyone!”
Li Shiming said with a smile, then took out the jar of wine that he had snatched from Li Yuan.
Although Li Shi Min liked wine, he wouldn't keep it all to himself. After he had the wine, the first thing he thought of was the heroes who had fought alongside him.
Seeing Li Shiming take out a jar of wine, the civil and military officials 'faces turned ugly. They felt that Li Shiming was too muddle-headed. He didn't know what was important and what was important. At such an important moment, he only wanted to drink. It was really disappointing.
"Your Majesty, you should put the country's affairs first!”
Zhangsun Wuji tried his best to persuade Li Shiming, hoping to convince him not to slack off.
Just as Zhangsun Wuji said this, Li Shiming opened the wine jar.
Zhangsun Wuji had just finished speaking when he smelled a rich fragrance of wine. His expression changed 360 degrees in an instant. He took a deep breath and said in an intoxicated manner,
"Wow, it smells so good!"
In ancient times, men were all drunkards. Because the food tasted bad, everyone could only rely on drinking for fun.
The civil officials and generals in front of Li Shiming were like drunkards. They could say a bunch of great principles confidently because they had never encountered good wine. If they had encountered good wine, they would not have the slightest resistance.
"Everyone, Minister Zhangsun Aiqing has an important task to carry out. He can't drink today. Let's split this jar of wine equally!”
Li Shiming said to his subordinates with a smile. He was deliberately making fun of Zhangsun Wuji.
"Your Majesty, although I have an important task, it doesn't hinder me from drinking. If I can drink a mouthful of wine, it can increase my work efficiency!”
Zhangsun Wuji's words were too shameless. Previously, he had vowed to make Li Shiming quit drinking. At this moment, he was the first to stand up and say that he wanted to drink.
"Hahahahaha, in that case, let's split this jar of wine equally!”
Li Shi Min said with a laugh, then poured everyone a small cup.
This jar of wine didn't have much weight to begin with, and Li Shiming had secretly drunk a little before. After pouring a small cup for each person, the jar of wine was empty.
Faced with such fine wine, no one was willing to drink it in one gulp. Instead, they held the wine in their cups and sniffed it first, then licked it, and finally took a sip.
After everyone took a sip, they felt a burning heat flow from their tongues all the way to their dantian. That feeling was really indescribable.
"Good wine, it's really good wine!"
"I've never drunk such good wine in my life!”
"If I can drink a cup of such fine wine every day, I will have no regrets even if I die on the battlefield!”
"To be able to drink a mouthful of such fine wine in my life, I have not lived in vain!”
All the civil and military officials who had come to attend the meeting began to praise Li Shiming. They had been a little dissatisfied with Li Shiming before, but at this moment, all their negative emotions had disappeared.
……
At night, Li Chengqian had a headache. Where should he stay?
It wasn't appropriate to stay with Li Yuan, and it wasn't appropriate to return to Empress Zhangsun's place either.
After thinking for a long time, Li Chengqian still returned to the Eastern Palace where Empress Zhangsun was.
After half a day, the mother and son still looked very awkward after meeting each other. When they thought of what had happened last night, the two of them were too embarrassed to look at each other.
"Chengqian, I didn't expect you to have already grown up. Mother still treats you like a child!”
Empress Zhangsun squeezed out a smile, trying to break the awkwardness between the two.
"Uh, I'm a little too mature!"
Li Chengqian scratched his head in embarrassment. This topic was not easy to talk about.
"Mother has decided to build another palace for you and arrange a female official to teach you some techniques in the bedroom. What do you think?”
Empress Zhangsun asked Li Chengqian. After all, Li Chengqian was still young. Whether or not he wanted to live alone, she needed to discuss with him.
"That's good, but there's no need for a female official!”
Li Chengqian was not willing to live with Empress Zhangsun every day. Empress Zhangsun was too intimate. If one day she could not hold back and caused a disaster, it would be troublesome.
"Chengqian, you're about to be separated. Stay with mother for another night!”
What made everyone speechless was that Empress Zhangsun had actually said such a thing.
