Chapter 54: Are You Okay, Your Excellency?

"What's wrong with you, sir?" Luo Tong asked.

"I didn't ...... Not much! Sun Jiali shook his head and said: "I didn't think about it just now, doing things for the imperial court is the duty of the officials, how can I ask for merit and reward?" ”

"Xia Guan retracts his previous words!"

"Farewell to the official!"

Sun Jiali bowed his hand and left.

……

Li Zhi and Luo Tong were stunned.

"This guy, she's insane, isn't he? I wanted a reward just now, but I don't want it in the blink of an eye! Fool us? ”

"Hehe......." Li Zhi said with a smile: "Sun Jiali is a smart person, he knows that the eldest grandson Wuji hates him, if he is rewarded for his meritorious service and goes to the sixth department, he will be directly under the jurisdiction of the eldest grandson Wuji, and the situation will be even worse!" ”

"Rather than this, it is better to stay in Chang'an County ......."

"I see!" Luo Daodao: "What an old fox! ”

Night.

Li Zhi was lying in the restaurant.

I suddenly remembered that some time ago, in order to make wine, the koji buried in the backyard should be about the same.

"it!"

"Master, you called me?" Cheng Chubi ran into the house.

"Have you ever seen the koji I buried in the backyard?"

"Koji?"

Cheng Chubi didn't know that there was koji buried in the backyard.

I don't even know what koji is used for.

He scratched his head: "Master, what is koji?" ”

"Forget it, I'll see for myself!"

Li Zhi ran to the backyard and opened a jar in the cellar, which was sealed with koji. Judging from the condition, it should be almost ready to use.

"I told you before that I wanted to make a high-grade liquor, do you remember?"

"Remember!"

At the time, no one believed it.

The strongest wine in the world is nothing more than Li Shimin's elixir and jade liquid, in addition, is there anything better?

Li Zhi said: "We are known as the No. 1 restaurant in Beijing, but we can't even get a decent bottle of wine, isn't it a joke?" This time, I'll show you what good wine is! ”

……

Li Zhi instructed Cheng Chubi to prepare the materials and tools needed for winemaking.

Overnight.

Hundreds of catties of rice wine were brewed.

As the rice wine comes out of the pot, it exudes an intoxicating fragrance.

Cheng Chubi was surprised: "What a rich aroma of wine!" ”

"Master, this ......."

"I gave this wine a name, it's called Fairy Wine! As the name suggests, how can mortals peep into the fine wine that only immortals can drink? ”

This name is acquired!

Luo Tong couldn't help laughing: "The name is quite loud, but I don't know ...... Does it live up to its name? ”

"Why don't you try it?"

"Good!"

That's what Luo Tong wants!

He picked up a bowl of steaming wine, put it under his nose and smelled it: "Based on the aroma of this wine alone, it can indeed be called the word 'fairy', but it ......." ”

He took a small sip.

Spirits are like fire.

down the throat.

The sweet and fragrant breath remains in the mouth for a long time.

Hiss!!

Luo Tong closed his eyes slightly, as if enjoying himself.

Cheng Chubi swallowed his saliva and asked, "Luo Tong boy, tell me quickly...... How's this wine? ”

"Good wine!"

"I've never drunk such a mellow wine, and he's strong enough, several times stronger than the liquid in the palace!" Luo Tong replied excitedly.

In a word......

He was very satisfied with this new fairy wine!

"Hey...... I'm going to try it too! Cheng Chubi also did the same, picked up a bowl and drank it all.

Spirits up to forty proof.

He actually drank a bowl in one go!

It's like being burned in my throat, and I feel like I'm trying to kill myself!

"Oh my God, this ...... Yes! Cheng Chubi rolled on the ground holding his stomach: "Your Highness, I'm so uncomfortable, what kind of wine is this, is it poisonous?" ”

"You idiot, who told you to drink so much?"

Li Zhi instructed Luo Tong to bring a large bowl of ice water and pour it into his mouth.

After tossing for a while, the pain was relieved.

Luo Tong was puzzled: "Your Highness, when I tasted wine just now, I felt very good, why did Cheng Chubi kill this kid, like drinking poison?" ”

"He's drunk too much!"

"This kind of wine is several times stronger than my father's elixir and jade liquid. Once you enter it, it's like a fire. And while being burned, the sweetness of the wine cannot be tasted, only the pain remains! ”

"Only by tasting it slowly can you appreciate the sweetness of wine!"

……

Luo Tong thought back, and it was!

When he drank it just now, although it was only a small sip, he could clearly feel the hot pain in his mouth. Cheng Chubi drank a bowl in one go, and it was strange that he died without pain.

After a while!

The smell of alcohol dissipated slightly, and Cheng Chubi also returned to normal.

He was just about to scold the fairy wine, but suddenly found that there was a residual aroma of wine in his mouth, which was intoxicating.

"It's ......."

"How? Is fairy wine okay? Li Zhi asked.

"Okay! It's just too good! Cheng Chubi smiled: "I drank too much in one sip just now, if you are like Luo Tong, slowly enter it, it will definitely be more delicious!" ”

"As soon as the fairy wine comes out, the rest of the wine is like boiled water...... Your Highness, we're going to get rich! ”

Thinking that he will soon become the richest lord in the capital.

The three of them laughed happily.

Palace.

Inside the Temple of Manna.

Li Shimin received a letter, opened it, and said in surprise: "Come on, go and pass on the eldest grandson Wuji to enter the palace!" ”

"Yes!"

The father-in-law outside the door didn't dare to slack off, and quickly went to the eldest grandson Wuji Mansion.

"Your Majesty, what is this letter?" Yang Guifei sat next to Li Shimin and asked curiously.

Yang Guifei, the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, is deeply loved by Li Shimin!

He is low-key, does not quarrel with the palaces, is courteous, dignified and beautiful, and has the style of the eldest grandson queen. Perhaps, this is also the reason why Li Shimin loves her.

"Concubine, please take a look...... This is a tribe in the south...... The Nanni tribe, when I heard that my Datang Dynasty was going to hold a kitchen god conference, volunteered and sent messengers all the way, claiming to also participate! Hahaha...... That's great news. I want to hurry up and arrange it, so that they can see the grand occasion of my Datang! ”

Li Shimin's hands were trembling with excitement.

However......

Yang Guifei didn't feel that kind of joy, and chuckled: "Your Majesty...... It's just a small tribe, worthy of the emperor's attention? ”

Li Shimin frowned: "The concubine's words are wrong! ”

"That's it...... I'll go do errands first, and I'll come back to you when I have time! ”

I wanted to explain.

Seeing that Yang Guifei couldn't understand what he was thinking, she didn't bother to explain. No matter how much you explain, it's also playing the piano to the cow. He remembered Empress Changsun, got up and rushed to the Lizheng Palace.

"Hahaha......."

Li Shimin smiled and entered the lobby of the Lizheng Palace.

He handed the letter to Empress Eldest Sun.

When Empress Changsun saw this, she was as happy as him: "Congratulations to the emperor, the people of southern Xinjiang can live in peace for a long time...... ”

"Uh-huh!! Or do you know me! ”

Li Shimin nodded.

Hearing this, Empress Eldest Sun knew that Li Shimin must have gone to see the other concubines just now, otherwise he would not have such an expression.
