In Taiji Palace, Li Er sent someone to bring back ten catties of Maotai from Cheng Yaojin.
"I want to taste the wine that made Zhijie drunk.”He asked the eunuch to pour out a cup. Li Er held the cup in front of his nose and sniffed it gently.
The rich fragrance of wine immediately spread out. The wine in the cup was crystal clear, without a trace of impurity. If it wasn't for the fragrance of the wine, people would believe that it was clear water.
"How can there be wine without food? Men, go prepare a few dishes for me.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Then, a few palace maids brought the cooked dishes to the table in front of Li Er.
Li Er took a sip and savored the wine in front of him.
"Good wine."
No wonder Cheng Zhijie was drunk. It was too strong and had a strong aftertaste. If he hadn't just taken a small sip, his mouth would have been burning hot.
Even though the wine had a strong spiciness, it was rich and mellow. Those who did not drink would never understand how wonderful it was.
The grape wine in the palace now looked so light that it seemed to have no taste.
The only flaw was that the dishes that went with the wine were not very delicious. Thinking of the delicacies at Lu Manor, Li Er could not help but sigh in his heart.
"I heard that yesterday's group ate millstone-sized crabs. I wonder what they tasted like.”
He finally understood why his father was unwilling to return to the palace.
The good food and drinks in the Lu Manor could not be compared to those in the palace.
Most importantly, Lu Xiu's ability was very mysterious. For example, the " corpse transfer " that terrified countless famous doctors was actually cured by a miraculous method. It seemed that no matter what kind of illness he had, he could easily cure it. It was even possible for people to live to a hundred years old.
…………
In the Cheng residence, Cheng Yaojin invited a few of his close friends to his house.
Originally, he was reluctant to share the good wine that he had exchanged for from Lu Village in Anping County. It would be better if he drank it secretly.
However, today's scandal made the usually thick-skinned Cheng Yaojin feel extremely embarrassed. No matter what, he had to explain it to his good friends in the court.
"Do you think the sun rose from the west today? Zhijie actually invited us to drink.”Li Jing said with a smile.
"Zhijie should have fallen ill today.”Qin Qiong also laughed.
"I don't think so. Zhijie has always been ridiculous. Last time, there was an imperial censor who wrote a book about him, and he beat him up on the spot.”Yuchi Gong said.
"You don't have the right to criticize him, right?" Li Ji sighed. You were the one who was jeering at the side, right?
The four of them came to the city together and found that Cheng Yaojin had already prepared food and wine.
On each table were plates of cooked dishes.
"Shu Bao, you're here. Quickly sit properly. Today, I'll let you taste the fine wine that I've obtained with great difficulty.”Cheng Yaojin said.
"Zhijie, do you have any difficulties? If you have something to say, say it. If we can help, we will definitely help.”Qin Qiong said kindly.
"What are you talking about? What difficulties can I have? Today, I'm really only treating you to wine.”Cheng Yaojin snorted.
"Alright, let's have a toast. It's been a long time since I've had a few mouthfuls of good wine.”Qin Shubao said.
Last year's drought and this year's locust plague made it impossible for the people to brew good wine without food.
What they drank at the banquet was usually grape wine made from grapes. It was completely inferior to wine made from grain.
Qin Shubao and the others took the wine bottles on the table and poured themselves a glass.
"Good wine."
Just the fragrance of the wine that was emitted made them feel energized.
"Gulp." Yuchi Gong couldn't help but drink it all in one gulp before he could say anything." Delicious. The fragrance of the wine is rich, and the strength of the wine is strong. I can't believe there's such a strong wine in this world."”
"Where did Zhijie get such a good wine?”Qin Shubao was extremely surprised. He originally thought that Zhi Jie had invited them to drink for some reason, but who would have thought that they would really taste good wine.
"Its wine is very strong, and its fragrance is like a wine cellar that has been aged for hundreds of years. It's completely different from what I've drunk before!!”Li Ji nodded.
"It's good, right? After I drank a few mouthfuls today, I couldn't stop and drank a few more cups. In the end, I was drunk and unconscious, so I did those ridiculous things.”Cheng Yaojin explained.
"Haha, so you're drunk." When everyone heard this, they understood and came to a realization.
"He has an extremely strong alcohol tolerance. If he drinks too much, he will get drunk very easily.”Li Jing nodded.
"Haha, but this is what you call wine. The grape wine we drank in the past is nothing. Even vinegar tastes better than it.”Yuchi Gong said.
"Everyone, drink as much as you want today. Although I only have a few kilograms, it's enough for us to drink to our hearts 'content.”Cheng Yaojin called out.
Qin Shubao and the others 'eyes lit up. It would be great if they could drink such fine wine to their hearts' content.
As generals, which one of them didn't love wine? Naturally, they wouldn't miss the opportunity to taste good wine.
Thus, the drunk Cheng Yaojin and the others actually caused a mess in the Cheng residence, especially Cheng Yaojin. He was simply crazy when he started drinking, and no one could control him.
