In the front hall of the Qin Palace, Zhu Biao and Zhu Fan sat opposite each other, and Li Jie accompanied each other, Zhu Fan has been very interested in the affairs of Goryeo since he learned about Zhu Di's affairs in Goryeo, and asked Li Jie many questions at the moment, and Li Jie also answered them one by one.

Just when the three of them were chatting, the county lord of Pucheng also brought a few small dishes made by himself, Li Jie found that the county lord of Pucheng was much better than Zhu Yuning in cooking, and these dishes in front of him were all full of color and aroma, as for the taste, I would not know until after tasting it, but it should not be bad.

"I didn't expect you to have good cooking skills in Pucheng, which is much better than Yuning!" At this time, Zhu Biao also exclaimed the same emotion.

"Uncle said that he laughed, I can only cook a few side dishes, and I am far worse than my cousin in other aspects!" I saw the county lord of Pucheng smile modestly again.

"Big brother, come and taste my treasured grape wine, this is transported from the Western Regions, don't look at this barrel is not big, but this barrel of wine is enough to sell for more than 100 yuan!" At this time, Zhu Fan picked up a barrel of well-sealed wine from the tray and introduced it to Zhu Biao.

Li Jie took a look at this wine, and it turned out to be in a delicate small wooden barrel, which looked really good, and then Zhu Fan said to Pucheng: "Where is my wine utensils, why haven't you taken it yet?" ”

"This ...... It's been picked up and will be delivered soon! Pu Cheng seemed to hesitate for a moment and said again.

As soon as the words fell, I saw a maid send a set of wine utensils, Li Jie thought it was some special wine utensils, but he didn't expect it to be a set of gold wine utensils that looked a little ordinary, although gold is very valuable, but it is nothing to a person of Zhu Rong's status.

"Hey, how to use this kind of wine utensils, didn't the ancients say 'grape wine glow-in-the-dark cup'?" Zhu Biao also asked a little strangely when he saw this set of ordinary gold wine utensils.

"Big brother, do you know, although the luminous glass is suitable for drinking wine, but it is not the most suitable, my set of wine is not ordinary, but I spent a lot of money to buy it from a Hu merchant, with this set of wine to drink wine, it will be more sweet and refreshing, it is not comparable to other wine sets, usually I am reluctant to let others use it!" Zhu Fan was very proud to praise that he was more demanding than anyone else in terms of drinking.

Hearing Zhu Fan say this, Zhu Biao was also interested, and Zhu Fan also took the wine jug in the wine utensils, and was about to pour the wine from the wooden barrel into the wine jug with his own hands, but the county lord of Pucheng took the wine barrel and said with a smile: "Father, you are not in good health, I should do these things!" ”

Seeing that his daughter was so well-behaved, Zhu Fan did not refuse, and immediately handed over the wine barrel and wine jug to the county lord of Pucheng, Li Jie also watched quietly from the side, he was not interested in any wine, but if Zhu Biao wanted to drink it, he could also accompany him to drink two glasses.

I saw that the county lord of Pucheng opened the wooden barrel, and immediately a fruity aroma of wine emanated, even if Li Jie didn't understand wine, he felt that the taste of this wine smelled very good, at least not as strong as other wines.

The lord of Pucheng opened the golden wine jug, and then poured out the wine in the barrel, only to see a stream of Yin Hong's wine flowing out of the barrel, making the wine aroma in the room even stronger.

"This wine aroma is really good, it seems that you have really collected some good wine, second brother!" Zhu Biao smelled the aroma of wine in the air and couldn't help but praise.

"Of course, I don't dare to say anything else, but when it comes to drinking, we brothers are definitely not as good as me!" Zhu Fan also boasted again when he heard this.

However, at this moment, an accident happened, and I don't know if the lord of Pucheng didn't take it well, or he was distracted for a while, but the wine barrel in his hand slipped down, and smashed onto the wine bottle below at once, only to hear a loud "bang", Yin Hong's wine splashed everywhere, and the smell of wine in the room was stronger.

"My father is angry, and he blames me for not being good......"

The county lord of Pucheng also admitted his mistake in a panic at this time, but only to see a "snap", Zhu Fan actually slapped her in the face, making the county lord of Pucheng unstable and falling to the ground all of a sudden!

"Second brother, what are you doing?" Zhu Biao also stood up suddenly when he saw this, hurriedly supported Pucheng, and then said angrily at Zhu Zhang.

I saw that the county lord of Pucheng also covered his face with an aggrieved face, even so, he could still see an obvious slap mark on her white jade-like face. Li Jie was also taken aback by this change, and looked at the county lord of Pucheng and was also a little stunned.

Zhu Fan seemed to be stunned for a moment, looked down at his palm, but then glared at the county lord of Pucheng very annoyed and said, "This girl is so useless, she can't even do this little thing, and she won't let me go down!" ”

"Yes, it's all because my daughter is useless, and it's bad for my father and uncle's Yaxing!" Unexpectedly, the county lord of Pucheng did not cry or make trouble, but lowered his head and admitted his mistake again, and after speaking, he gently saluted Zhu Biao, and also glanced at Li Jie, only then did her eyes show a little embarrassment, and then she turned around and left.

"Second brother, your temper is too short-tempered, isn't it just a bucket of bars, and you can beat children?" Zhu Biao was still angry at Zhu Fan at this time, since he saw the county lord of Pucheng yesterday, he felt that this child was quite good, although he was a little bold, but he helped Zhu Fan to provoke the important task of the palace, if she was a man, I am afraid it would be no worse than Zhu Youstew in Kaifeng.

"Big brother, don't be angry, this girl has done something wrong, of course she has to teach her a lesson, otherwise how can she correct it in the future?" Zhu Fan was very stubborn.

Zhu Biao also wanted to scold Zhu Fan angrily when he heard this, but after thinking about it, this is Zhu Zhang's family matter after all, even if he is the eldest brother, it is inconvenient to meddle in this kind of family matter, and even if he scolds Zhu Fan today, but if Zhu Fan vents his anger on the head of the county lord of Pucheng after he goes back, he will have no choice at that time.

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao could only suppress his anger, Zhu Fan also saw that the eldest brother was unhappy, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him, but he still didn't think he was wrong, Li Jie also reacted at this time, and immediately stepped forward to persuade Zhu Biao A few words, he didn't help Zhu Zhang, but he was afraid that Zhu Biao would hurt himself.

In the end, Zhu Biao finally didn't get angry again, but he didn't have the interest in drinking anymore, and Zhu Fan didn't mention drinking again, but accompanied Zhu Biao to talk about some things between brothers, which made Zhu Biao slowly lose his anger.

When Zhu Biao and Zhu Fan were chatting, Li Jie sat quietly on the side, thinking about the Pucheng County Lord just now, when Pucheng poured wine just now, Zhu Biao and Zhu Fan only cared about chatting, so they didn't notice how the wine barrel in the Pucheng County Lord's hand slipped off, but Li Jie saw with his own eyes that the Pucheng County Lord seemed to have deliberately let go of his hands and let the small wine barrel containing wine fall.

It was precisely after discovering this that Li Jie was even more strange, since the county lord of Pucheng deliberately knocked over the wine barrel, what was her intention in doing this, was it just because she was worried about Zhu Zhang's body, so she deliberately didn't let him drink?

But this doesn't make sense, let's not talk about whether Zhu Zhang's body is suitable for drinking, even if it is really not suitable, she can say it clearly, as long as Zhu Biao knows this, she will definitely stop Zhu Fan from drinking, so she doesn't need to knock over the wine barrel at all, and let herself be slapped.

Thinking of the above, Li Jie was also puzzled in his heart, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the wine utensils on the table, at this time, the overturned wine had been cleaned up, but the gold wine utensils were still on the table, Zhu Fan said just now that this set of wine utensils was his personal belongings, and he would not easily take them out to entertain guests.

However, when Li Jie's eyes fell on this set of wine sets, he found that the color of this set of wine sets was a little wrong, he had seen a lot of gold, and he was very familiar with the color of gold, and this set of gold wine sets in front of him seemed to be fine, but if you looked closely, you will find that the color of the wine set is darker than ordinary gold, and the brightness is also worse, as if it is not pure gold.

This discovery also made Li Jie even more curious, and immediately reached out to pick up a cup to inspect it, but at this time, Zhu Fan noticed his movements, and immediately smiled and said: "What, Li Banyu, are you interested in my set of drinking utensils?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, the minister doesn't like to drink, but I found that the color of this set of drinking utensils seems to be a little dark, and it doesn't seem to be pure gold." Li Jie said truthfully.

"Li Banyu is really right, according to the Hu Shang who sold it to me, this set of wine utensils was transported from the extreme west, and some special materials were added to it, which is a hundred times more valuable than ordinary gold, so it will be extra sweet to use it to drink!" Zhu Fan replied with a smile again.

"I see, Your Highness really has a study of drinking, and I admire it very much!" Li Jie also put down his wine glass at this time and complimented him with a smile, but for him, no matter what kind of wine is a taste, so no matter how magical this wine set is, Li Jie can't drink any difference.

Zhu Fan chatted with Zhu Biao for a morning, in the afternoon, Zhu Biao proposed to inspect Xi'an City, Zhu Biao originally wanted to accompany him, but Zhu Biao refused, mainly because Zhu Biao was worried about Zhu Biao's body, so he let him rest in the house, and in the afternoon he and Li Jie went out with people.

Zhu Biao's inspection is not just to go around the yamen, sometimes he and Li Jie will change into civilian clothes, go deep into the people to walk around the streets and alleys, listen to the local people's evaluation of the local government, if the government oppresses the people, or bullies in the fish and meat township, Zhu Biao will also let people take care of it.

But I don't know if I don't go, but I was startled when I left, Zhu Biao and Li Jie only spent an afternoon to hear a lot of news, many of which were about Zhu Zhang, and most of them were not good news, which made Zhu Biao shocked and saddened.

In fact, Li Jie has long been psychologically prepared, Zhu Zhang's reputation in history is not very good, although he can fight, but his personality is brutal, and he has many illegal acts when he comes to Xi'an, and even a large number of construction projects, labor and money, and the people have long complained about him.

What's even more speechless is that Zhu Fan will even torture the palace people around him for fun, which is simply a psychopath, and his death is also related to this incident, according to historical records, Zhu Fan was poisoned by three old women, and a prince died at the hands of several women.
