33. Chapter 33
As soon as he heard the word wine, Xiao Yanzhi hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover the mouth of the cup and said, "There is no need for wine, my father also set up a banquet in the palace tonight, so it is not good to go back with a body of wine." ”
Qin Tai was stunned and persuaded: "It's just a little osmanthus wine, it should be fine." ”
"Lord Qin, if you have a cup of tea here, it would be the best."
Qin Tai felt that it was okay, but he felt that there was a big problem! God knows what will happen after he drinks this sip of wine.
Pei Ze: When will they arrive? How long will he be here to smirk with Qin Tai?
"Jing Qing, make tea for His Highness." Qin Tai could only compromise.
"Yes." Qin Qingqing whispered, then left the house to find tea and tea sets, sat back beside Xiao Yanzhi, and quietly made tea.
No one spoke in the big room for a while, and Qin Tai also felt that Xiao Yanzhi's state at this time was not suitable for talking about the things he originally planned to say, so he could only give his eldest son Qin Fengren a look.
Qin Fengren understood, thought about it, and then asked Xiao Yanzhi: "I heard that His Royal Highness is traveling with the other three today, I don't know where the two Highnesses and King Wucheng went?" ”
As soon as Qin Fengren's words came out, Qin Fengming almost spit out the wine in his mouth, and Qin Tai also looked like he hated iron but not steel, glaring at Qin Fengren hatefully.
Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips and glanced at Qin Fengming with a smile before replying: "Who knows, maybe it's hanging out on the street in Chang'an City, and I don't know if I will come to Da'anfang to have a good time." ”
Xiao Yanzhi's words made it even more difficult for the Qin family to continue.
It happened that Qin Qingqing's tea was brewed, so he poured a cup and handed it to Xiao Yanzhi: "Lord Wang, please use tea." ”
"Thank you." Xiao Yanzhi picked up the small teacup, but only held it in his hand and shook it gently, and there was no movement in the big room.
"The prince seems to have gotten used to life in the palace?" This was said by Qin Fengming.
Xiao Yanzhi looked up at Qin Fengming and said with a smile: "There are many people serving in the palace, compared to doing everything by yourself when you are at home, that day is naturally much more comfortable, if you live this day comfortably, you will get used to it quickly." ”
Qin Fengming said again: "If the prince can move to live in the palace outside the palace, he will be able to make his own decisions about everything, and then take over any of the six departments, and then his life will be more comfortable." ”
"Take over any of the six?" Xiao Yanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, "Qin Shaoqing really thinks highly of me, I am also a reckless man in the countryside, how can I manage the affairs of the government and politics?" ”
Qin Fengming said disappreciatively: "But the prince, which one is in charge of things himself?" You won't, Lord Wang, someone in the Qin family will, we are cousins, this relative naturally wants to support each other, Lord Wang, are you right? ”
"Well, this is reasonable," Xiao Yanzhi nodded, but when Qin Fengming smiled, he changed his words and said, "But what I am most afraid of is to be related to relatives, but it is not related to others, and we can share joys and sorrows." ”
Qin Fengming really didn't know how close their family was to Xiao Yanzhi's kinship, he just heard Qin Tai mention a few words, and when he heard Xiao Yanzhi's words at this moment, he glanced at Qin Tai first.
Qin Tai took Xiao Yanzhi's words, sighed, and said as if full of emotion: "In this world, father and son can face each other, brothers also have fratricide, and even close relatives and blood can't be trusted, and those so-called cousins and friends can't be trusted. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yanzhi looked at the golden house again in a blink of an eye, and chuckled: "Then Lord Qin's life can be regarded as a complete merit." ”
Qin Tai laughed loudly and said, "Your Highness has won the award, but the minister is still far away." ”
"If Lord Qin is far behind, then what should I do." Xiao Yanzhi said half-truthfully.
Qin Fengming immediately followed and said, "When the prince said this, where did he want to put the lower officials?" Compared with the lower officials, you can get the moon first near the water. ”
Xiao Yanzhi glanced at Qin Fengming and said, "Although the moon is beautiful, it is not easy to pick, and if you are not careful, you will lose your life." ”
"That's why you need someone to assist the prince and give you a good foundation below." Qin Fengren finally interjected.
Xiao Yanzhi looked left and right, suddenly put down the teacup, sighed depressedly, and said, "You father and son don't want me to have a good holiday." ”
Qin Tai was stunned for a moment, exchanged a look with his two sons, then raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare, it's just a habit on weekdays, don't sort out government affairs, the minister has no intention of having fun, and has no intention of sweeping His Highness's happiness, and the minister will punish himself with a glass." ”
As soon as the words fell, Qin Tai drank all the wine in the cup, Qin Fengren and Qin Fengming drank a cup together, but Xiao Yanzhi didn't even pick up the teacup, sat there quietly, looking at Qin Tai motionlessly, the smile was as gentle as a spring breeze, but it made Qin Tai beat a drum in his heart.
After weighing it in his heart, Qin Tai spoke again: "Speaking of which, some time ago, the dog went out on an errand, and when he passed through the Jiangnan area, he also met His Royal Highness's younger brothers and sisters, and brought back the peach blossom brewed by Ling Mei's own hands. ”
Xiao Yanzhi's expression suddenly turned cold: "What does Lord Qin think of the craftsmanship of the sister-in-law?" ”
Qin Tai laughed three times and said: "That taste is really a memorable taste, the ministers want to take His Royal Highness's younger brothers and sisters back to Beijing, and open a nearby wine shop to satisfy the appetite of the ministers, but because of the majesty of His Highness, he didn't dare to cut it first and then play, so he just asked His Highness for an answer today." ”
"Master Qin thinks that I will agree?" Xiao Yanzhi looked at Qin Tai with an expressionless face.
The smile on Qin Tai's face also narrowed slightly, and said, "If Your Highness doesn't allow it, the minister will probably not be able to resist the temptation and make decisions on his own." ”
"Then I advise Lord Qin not to make his own opinions," Xiao Yanzhi leaned over, leaned over to Qin Tai's side and whispered, "I don't know if Lord Qin feels like this, a person's weakness is often against the scales, and it can't be touched lightly." The rabbit is in a hurry and bites, is it possible that Lord Qin thinks that I am worse than a rabbit? Lord Qin thought that I was alone with my younger siblings, how did I gain a foothold in Jiangnan? There are so many people in the Jiangnan area who can make wine, why do some people have to go to work in other homes, but I, a country boy, have opened a wine shop by myself? Lord Qin, are you sure that if you say something in Jiangnan, it will be more effective than what I said? The person who robbed me in Jiangnan, Lord Qin is sure that you can get out of the way? ”
Jiangnan is not Qin Tai's sphere of influence, Xiao Yanzhi still knows this.
Qin Tai was stunned, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know whether he was frightened by what Xiao Yanzhi said, or by Xiao Yanzhi's momentum, for a moment, Qin Tai seemed to see the young and vigorous Xu Likeze again. Suddenly coming back to his senses, Qin Tai realized that he underestimated this great prince who had returned from the mountains, and he forgot that this prince was the son of His Majesty and the former empress, how could he be a general?
There was silence in the big room, Qin Qingqing, who was closest to Xiao Yanzhi and Qin Tai, twisted his fingers, not even daring to take a breath of air, Qin Fengren and Qin Fengming could only look at Xiao Yanzhi and Qin Tai, who were very close, in a daze, unable to open their mouths to break the deadlock.
