Don't You Think About Going Out on Two Legs
Li Shi Min did as he was told. After he made up his mind, he didn't care what time it was and directly transferred a group of imperial guards to disguise themselves and follow him out of the palace.
At this moment, Wang Chen was packing his things in the tavern, preparing to close the door and get off work.
To him, the current life in the tavern was just casual, so he never opened the door at night. It was better to lie down and sleep at home.
Therefore, just as the tables and chairs were put up and the door was about to be put up, Old Li suddenly appeared at the entrance of the tavern.
"Shopkeeper Wang, are you ready to close the shop?”
Wang Chen was surprised to see Li Shiming. This was the first time he saw Li Shiming come to his place for dinner in the evening.
"Old Li, what a rare guest. The sun has already set, but you still have time to come to my place.”
"Why do you have a beautiful wife and concubines at home? Isn't it more comfortable than my cold bench?”
Li Shi Min smiled bitterly.
"Shopkeeper Wang, don't say anymore. I'm filled with frustration now.”
Wang Chen felt a little strange.
The two of them had known each other for more than a month. According to his knowledge, Old Li should be a capable businessman.
At the very least, his business was doing well and his family was happy. It was rare to see him show such a troubled expression.
Wang Chen immediately grabbed Li Shi Min's arm.
"Come, come, come. Come in first. Wait for me to close this door. I'll specially entertain you today.”
Li Shi Min followed the direction Wang Chen was pulling and walked in. Then, he saw Wang Chen blocking the wooden board.
"Pa da!"
Wang Chen knocked the wooden stool down from the table and wiped it casually.
"Sit down first. I'll prepare a few dishes for you.”
As he spoke, Wang Chen turned around and went into the kitchen.
Li Shi Min looked in the direction Wang Chen had left. He didn't know why, but his originally frustrated heart suddenly calmed down.
It seemed that this young man had the ability to calm his agitation with a few words.
This tavern also seemed to make him feel more relaxed than the slightly oppressive atmosphere in the palace.
Li Shiming couldn't help but think that his act of entering this tavern incognito a month and a half ago was perhaps the most correct thing he had done in decades.
Being friends with the hotel manager made him feel extremely happy.
If Little Shopkeeper Wang were to become an official in the imperial court, would Li Shimin still have the chance to throw away his identity and drink with Wang Chen?
Li Shiming didn't have an idea, so he could only make up his mind and take it one step at a time.
……
Not long after, Wang Chen brought a few dishes to Li Shimin's table.
Wang Chen didn't even need Li Shimin's help to add another set of chopsticks.
Anyway, he was already used to it. If Old Li sat down and didn't brag to him, it would be strange.
Then, Wang Chen ran to the wine cellar and rummaged through it. Finally, he came out with a jar of wine.
"I say, Old Li, you're lucky today. Didn't you say that you were in a bad mood?”
"Then I happen to have a jar of high-quality liquor here. That's what it means to drown one's sorrows with wine.”
"You're really lucky. The last few jars were said to be strong wine, but they're far inferior to this jar.”
Li Shi Min looked at the small jar of liquor in Wang Chen's hand and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The reason why he was admonished by Wei Zheng was because he had bumped into him that day when he was reeking of alcohol.
Now, this little shopkeeper had brought out another jar of wine. It was simply sprinkling salt on his wounds.
However, Li Shiming had a rebellious mentality.
Wei Zheng, you don't give me any face every day.
Then I have to continue drinking today, and I have to drink something with a high alcohol content.
Moreover, when he heard Wang Chen say that this jar of wine was even stronger than the last time, he could not help but want to see it.
How strong could it be? Could it be that it could directly knock him down?
Li Shi Min was an emperor who had lived on horseback. He had experienced many battles and drinking wine.
The last time, it was a moment of carelessness. It was rare for him to accidentally drink a little too much.
This time, he didn't believe that it could go any further.
"Shopkeeper, serve the wine. Today, I have to drink to see how high it is!”
Wang Chen opened the wine seal as instructed. Immediately, an extremely strong wine fragrance soared into the sky.
Li Shi Min felt his nose tingle just by smelling the fragrance of the wine.
"Shopkeeper, this is too rash!”
Wang Chen smiled proudly.
"Who told you to brag so early? Don't even think about walking out of my door today.”
"But don't worry. If you're drunk, I'll be responsible for sending you back!”
Li Shi Min's mouth twitched as he reminded himself.
He mustn't really drink until he collapsed. If that happened, he wouldn't know how to return to the palace.
After all, Li Shi Min would never expose his identity by asking Wang Chen to give him a ride.
Of course, Li Shiming was a little scared in his heart, but his face would not soften.
"Shopkeeper, pour the wine!"
"I, Old Li, will say this. If you drink too much, I'll close the shop for you!”
