Ji Xiao smiled." Why are you knocking? Come in quickly."”
Li Shi Min walked in with a big jar of wine in his arms.
Ji Xiao took out a large plate of braised beef, a plate of braised chicken wings, and peanuts to go with the wine.
This beef was from the "Armored Flame Horn Cow". This kind of cow was covered in a thick layer of armor. After cutting it open, the meat inside tasted excellent.
The snowflake patterns formed by the fat and lean meat could still be vaguely seen even after it was made into braised beef.
Compared to the top-notch Kazuyuki in his previous life, it was much better.
Li Shiming poured wine for the two of them and placed the wine jar on the table.
Ji Xiao took a sip. The taste was clear and smooth, slightly spicy, and extremely delicious.
"Good wine!"
"This is my ancestor's treasure, and I took it out especially for Brother Ji."”
He wasn't lying. This wine was called 'Heavenly Policy'. Li Yuan had hidden more than ten jars and didn't take them out easily.
Li Shimin had to beg his father for this jar today.
The two of them ate and drank like this. Tian Ce was quite drunk and was a little drunk for a while.
"Brother Ji, when did you enter the palace as a royal chef?" Li Shimin's eyes flashed.”
Ji Xiao recalled for a moment,"Sixteen years old."”
"Brother Ji is so talented, have you ever thought of becoming an official in the imperial court and establishing your achievements?" Li Shimin asked.”
Ji Xiao waved his hand." I'm living a good life now. I have drinks, women, and friends. Why do I have to be an official?"”
Li Shi Min wanted to persuade him again, but he suddenly remembered Zhou Yi's peerless beauty. He fell silent for a while and understood what Ji Xiao meant.
Now that he thought about it, the Great Zhou Empress was indeed not simple. Although the husband she chose did not cultivate martial arts, he was a great talent in governing the country. In terms of value, even an ordinary Sacred Sovereign could not compare.
But thinking of the purpose of coming here today, Li Shimin decided to provoke Ji Xiao.
"Forgive me for being blunt, but I don't quite agree with your idea.”
"What do you mean?" Ji Xiao smiled.”
Li Shi Min downed a big bowl of wine, his voice suddenly raised and became full of pride.
"A man should have lofty aspirations and make contributions. Only then will he not have come to this world in vain!”
"Then let me ask you, what's the point of making contributions?" Ji Xiao laughed.”
"Of course, it's to leave a name in history and be praised for thousands of years."”
"These are all false reputations," Ji Xiao said. At that time, you would have already died. Whether the future generations praised you or scolded you, what did it have to do with you?”
Li Shiming's expression froze, but he was the emperor of a generation after all, so he immediately found a new perspective.
"If you can become one of the three dukes, or a prime minister general, you can hold power and command millions of people.”
"Don't you find it troublesome to manage so many people?" Ji Xiao laughed.”
"Even if Brother Ji doesn't love power, if you are in a high position, you can still be surrounded by beautiful women and enjoy all the delicacies and wine in the world."”
Ji Xiao grinned and asked,"Aren't I enjoying this right now?"”
Li Shi Min's expression froze.
That's right. Ji Xiao could make the most delicious food in the world and brew good wine. He also had a peerless beauty like the Great Zhou Empress by his side.
It seemed that she could not give him anything.
Li Shi Min let out a long sigh. For the first time in his life, this Emperor who was good at manipulating people felt defeated.
However, he was still unwilling to give up. Giving up was not in his character.
Moreover, all the civil officials in the three provinces and six ministries of the Great Tang Empire added together could not compare to Ji Xiao alone.
As the Emperor, if he let such a talent slip away, it would be worse than killing Li Shiming.
"Everyone has their own aspirations," Li Shimin said with a smile. Let's not talk about this. Let's continue drinking.”
"Come, cheers!" Ji Xiao said.
The two of them clinked their bowls.
Li Shimin was too emotional and drunk to control his strength. He accidentally crushed the bowl.
Seeing the wine and ceramic fragments fly out rapidly, about to hurt Ji Xiao, he said,
Li Shi Min was shocked. His right hand quickly turned into a shadow. Shua, shua, shua. Not only did he collect all the fragments, he also took back the wine.
This move was the supreme divine ability that the Li Imperial Family had only passed down to each emperor-the Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception.
If he unleashed his cultivation base and used it with the strength of an Eighth Sky Martial Saint, he would be able to easily take away all the weapons and Divine Abilities of the enemy.
Li Shi Min revealed this move in front of Ji Xiao, his face full of pride. He thought that Ji Xiao would be surprised.
Who knew that when he looked up, Ji Xiao's expression was indifferent, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, a smile that was not a smile.
Li Shimin had seen this expression many times. When he was young, Li Yuan taught him martial arts.
Every time Li Shiming thought he had mastered a martial technique, Li Yuan would break it in one move and then look at him with a faint smile.
"Old Li, this move of yours isn't good enough." Ji Xiao said.”
He was also a little surprised. Wasn't this the supreme divine power he had obtained from touching caviar yesterday?
He didn't expect Old Li, a mere guard, to know how to use it.
It was probably his family's martial arts, right?
However, based on Ji Xiao's understanding of the Twelve Styles of Heaven Interception, Old Li should have learned an incomplete copy.
Li Shi Min was shocked, but at the same time, he was unwilling to admit defeat.
"Oh? Where did you get that from?"
