Chapter 548: Persuade Drinking
A few days later, King Xuan's Palace, at the palace gate.
For the arrival of King Qin, King Xuan still gave relative etiquette, and naturally greeted him in person.
When the two met, King Xuan first bowed his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, don't come to harm." ”
"It's good, it's good." Xiao Yuan also looked smiling.
At this time, a group of ministers behind King Xuan also began to bow down one after another and said, "I've seen His Royal Highness King Qin."
"Your Excellency, be polite." Xiao Yuan arched his hand and gestured to everyone.
After taking a photo, King Xuan also stretched out his hand: "Brother Wang has been tired all the way, I have set up a banquet in the palace, I will go to the palace for you, please." ”
"If that's the case, then it will bother Sister Wang." Xiao Yuan would be polite.
Subsequently, the two entered the palace and walked side by side in the front, followed by Xu Hu Xie Hongling, and a group of Xuanguo ministers.
On the way, Xiao Yuan first looked at the majestic Xuanwang Palace, and then fixed his eyes on Xuanwang.
She was still like that, with fair skin, delicate facial features, bright eyes, and long eyelashes that were thick and thick.
Although she has a beautiful face, she has a touch of the majesty of a queen, which is the temperament of a person who has been in the top position for a long time, and there is no need to deliberately decorate it at all.
As if he was aware of it, King Xuan also looked at Xiao Yuan slightly, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What is Brother Wang looking at?" Do I have flowers on my face? ”
Xiao Yuan quipped: "Whenever I am with Sister Wang, I will always feel like I am accompanied by a beautiful woman." ”
King Xuan gave him a blank look, but he didn't bother to reply to him.
This queen can't move.
Xiao Yuan was bored with himself, so he could only laugh dryly.
In a short time, the people had come to a large hall.
Seeing King Xuan, the forbidden troops on both sides of the hall knelt on one knee one after another.
The group entered the main hall, and several cases inside had already been placed, divided into left and right sides, for the minister's seat as an accompaniment.
Xiao Yuan looked upward, couldn't help nodding secretly, and said in his heart that Queen Xuan was quite heartfelt, because on the seat directly above, there were two cases that were tied, which obviously represented the two monarchs on an equal footing.
Without waiting for him to finish looking at the environment here, King Xuan stretched out his hand again and said, "Brother Wang, please." ”
"Sister Wang, please." Xiao Yuan also stretched out his hand.
The two kings sat down directly above, and King Xuan also waved his robe: "All the secretaries are seated." ”
"King Xie" Xuanguo ministers shouted in unison, and then they all found their positions, kneeling on the ground, and placed a case in front of them.
Then, a group of palace maids began to bring up plates of delicacies and sent them one by one.
This is a banquet held by the royal palace to entertain the monarchs of other countries, and there is no need to say much about the dishes.
When the wine and food were almost served, King Xuan was the first to pick up the wine glass in front of him, and said to the ministers below: "Today, I will accompany the ministers, in order to welcome the King of Qin to our country, everyone must pay a few more glasses to the King of Qin, so as to show my etiquette of Xuanguo's hospitality." ”
"The ministers obey the king's orders," the ministers of Xuanguo said, following the cup.
"Let's have a drink together."
"Respect for the Great King and His Royal Highness the King of Qin"
Xiao Yuan secretly smiled bitterly and shook his head, what does Queen Xuan mean, is she going to pour herself wine?
After the first glass of wine was served, the hall also resounded with gagaku and danced to the accompaniment of the kabuki.
In the middle of the main hall, there are a group of young women, with light gauze sleeves.
On both sides, there are ministers with a case in front of them.
Above are Xiao Yuan and King Xuan.
The banquet officially began, and King Xuan also picked up his chopsticks, looked at Xiao Yuan, and said, "Brother Wang, please." ”
"Please." This etiquette is quite cumbersome, and Xiao Yuan is indeed a little hungry, so he is not polite.
On the other hand, King Xuan is extremely gentle.
But it didn't take long for Yao Tingyu to stand up from his seat, hold a wine glass and say: "Yao Tingyu, Prime Minister of Xuanguo, salute His Royal Highness King Qin with a glass, dare to drink a full drink." ”
This is the Xuanguo ministers who got King Xuan's signal, and his prime minister was the first to start, if you really want to drink like this, even if Xiao Yuan's alcohol is big, how can he withstand it!
But the other party is the prime minister of a country, and his face is not easy to brush, he has a lot of thoughts, and he wants to find a reason to shirk, so he smiled and said: "Xiangguo is warm, this king should drink it full, but this wine, from the perspective of this king, must have a name." ”
Hearing this, Yao Tingyu immediately smiled and said, "What is the relationship between Qin and Xuan today?" ”
"This king has come to your country in person, so why should Xiangguo ask this." Xiao Yuandao.
"In that case, in order to celebrate the eternal friendship between the two countries, should Your Highness not drink?" Yao Tingyu said directly.
"Okay." Xiao Yuan was helpless, this was a big hat, even if he was a king, he couldn't prevaricate, so he could only hold up his wine glass, "Xiangguo, please." ”
As he spoke, he didn't ink any of them, and drank the wine in one gulp.
Yao Tingyu covered his mouth with his sleeve robe, and after drinking, he stood there and smashed his mouth, Shi Li sighed: "Your Highness has a good amount of wine......
Xiao Yuan smiled bitterly, and before he could eat two more bites of food, another minister of Xuanguo stood up and toasted with the same cup.
"His Royal Highness arrived in our country, is for the guests and distinguished guests, should be treated with national courtesy, since it is a distinguished guest, then my king should be hospitable, in order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, His Majesty is here, on behalf of the king, especially for the distinguished guests to toast, Your Highness, please." The minister said.
Immediately afterwards, another minister stood up: "Today's banquet, the two kings of Qin Xuan, sit here together, for the sake of celebration, Your Highness should drink this cup......"
One after another, the ministers of Xuanguo toasted under various names, and some of the reasons they said sounded so serious.
Xiao Yuan couldn't stop the wine, and after a few glasses, he couldn't help but glared at King Xuan fiercely.
The latter pursed his lips and snickered.
But at this time, Wang Su stood up again.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan suddenly felt a headache, and he smiled to himself: "Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?" ”
Wang Su said: "Your Royal Highness doesn't hear it, the literati are, accompanied by poetry and wine, chivalrous, and the heroes are drinking freely, so it can be seen that wine is one of the main streams of my Central Plains culture." ”
"And Your Highness, you are not inferior to the, and you are often chivalrous, and you are a hero in the world, from this point of view, you must drink this cup."
"You!" Xiao Yuan was a little anxious, but after holding back for a long time, he could only smile and shake his head again, and said:
"Okay, if I, the minister of Qin, can have the eloquence of you, I won't lose diplomatic relations many times......"
"Come, drink!" He also let it go.
"Your Highness is really massive, I admire it a lot," Wang Su said with a smile......
The atmosphere of the banquet has also reached its peak several times, and it is very lively, and it has not been cold at all.
This is also directly related to Xiao Yuan's generosity and heroism.
And seeing that he did not refuse, King Xuan stared at him with wide eyes, looked at him and said, "Wang...... Brother Wang, aren't you, dizzy? ”
How could Xiao Yuan not be dizzy, he leaned towards King Xuan, and said with three points of drunkenness: "Sister Wang wants to get me drunk?" ”
"How...... How could it be ......," King Xuan said with a smile.
Lu Yunyan...... You ......"
