The Situation of the Qin State Chapter 80 Enter the Wu Clan
"The head of the family, Li Qing, the superintendent of Great Qin, sent a message of worship."
Wu's Villa, Wu Yuan looked at the greeting post handed over by the servant, and couldn't help frowning, Li Qing, this name Wu Yuan has never heard of, but the supervision of the imperial history of the Qin State is not something that the Wu family can provoke at will, so Wu Yuan thought about it for a while, and then asked people to arrange a banquet and let his eldest son Wu Ying personally go to greet Li Qing.
Li Qing looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said with a smile: "I am Li Qing, the Imperial Historian of Great Qin, passing by here, I have heard the name of the Wu clan for a long time, so I came to pay a visit." ”
Wu Ying laughed and said: "Adults are young and promising, and they can come to Wushi, Wushi is really brilliant." ”
As he spoke, Wu Ying made a gesture of please, inviting Li Qing and the others to continue to move forward and enter Wushi Villa.
Walking all the way, Li Qing couldn't help nodding secretly, this Wu's huge reputation is not completely wasted, the entire Wu's Villa is dozens of miles away, and it has been built like an iron bucket by the Wu's family.
Wu Ying didn't seem to care about Li Qing's movements, but instead had the idea of showing Wu Qing's strength in a big way, and kept smiling and introducing the surrounding scenery to Li Qing.
Wu Ying said: "Since General Meng Tian defeated the Huns, it is easier for our Wu clan's horses and livestock to be transported to the Central Plains. ”
"A good horse from the Western Regions? Your Wu clan actually went to the Western Regions to do business? Li Qing said in surprise when he heard this.
Wu Ying nodded proudly and said, "Our Wu clan has a connection with the Yue clan and Wusun, and we can exchange some very ordinary things for the good horses and gems in their hands." ”
Li Qing's eyes showed a glimmer of essence, it seems that this Wu clan can still live a prosperous life after the fall of the Zhao State, and it should have a great relationship with their connections, many good horses in the Qin State need the Wu clan to come forward to buy, so it seems that it is not easy for him to make a move on the Wu clan.
Wu Ying naturally didn't know Li Qing's thoughts, he didn't know Li Qing's intentions, and he only thought that Li Qing was the same as the Qin officials in the past, just wanted to get benefits from the Wu clan, and the Wu clan had long been used to it, without Zhao as a backer, the Wu clan could only endure the exploitation from the Qin officials.
Soon, the group came to a huge manor, in front of the manor, Wu Yuan was wearing brocade clothes and was waiting for Li Qing with the Wu clan's people.
"Father, this is the superintendent of the imperial history Li Qing, Lord Li."
Wu Ying pointed at Li Qing and introduced Wu Yuan, and then introduced some of the stewards and elders of the Wu clan to Li Qing.
After Li Qing finished saluting with everyone, Wu Yuan looked at the more than 100 Qin soldiers who followed behind Li Qing, and couldn't help frowning slightly, but it was inconvenient to say anything, just secretly instructed the people of the Wu clan to stare at the people brought by Li Qing.
Wu Yuan said with a smile: "I heard that Lord Li is coming, the old man has already prepared a banquet, my lord, please." ”
Li Qing smiled, pointed to the Qin soldiers behind him and said, "Then I wonder if my brothers have any arrangements?" ”
Wu Yuan said: "Naturally, I won't treat you military masters slowly, and I have already prepared, Wu'an, why don't you take you military masters to the left courtyard to eat." ”
A fair-skinned fat man immediately ran out when he heard this, and made an inviting gesture to the soldiers of the Qin army.
The soldiers of the Qin army looked at Li Qing, Li Qing nodded, and so, the soldiers of the Qin army left with the fat man Wu'an, only Bai Fang and other twenty Qin army elites were indifferent, and they always stood behind Li Qing with their swords, and also beside Li Qing, there was also Qing wearing a veil.
Seeing this, Wu Yuan didn't think much about it, after all, it was normal for Li Qing to leave a few people to protect himself.
Wu Yuan led Li Qing and his party into the villa and came to a large hall, Wu Yuan invited Li Qing to a guest seat, and saw that Qing seemed to have an extraordinary status, so he also invited Qing to take a seat, as for the other Qin soldiers, they could only stand behind Li Qing.
Wu Ying sat in the position of accompanying the guests, and the servants of the Wu clan brought up plates of food and placed them in front of everyone.
Li Qing looked at the food in front of him, a roast chicken, a pot of old wine, and a few meatloaf, although these foods were not very exquisite, but the pure aroma of the food still made Li Qing swallow his saliva.
Wu Yuan smiled and raised his glass and said: "My lord came to my Wu clan as a guest, my Wu clan is really full of brilliance, Wu Yuan replaces Wu clan, and I salute my lord." ”
Seeing this, Li Qing also raised his glass to Wu Yuan, although he came to find trouble, Li Qing didn't want to turn his face directly with Wu's family, at least, after discovering Wu's strength, Li Qing no longer had the courage to turn his face directly.
A glass of turbid wine entered his throat, Li Qing couldn't help frowning, this Wu's wine was still the wine of Zhao Guo before, bitter and had a strange smell, Li Qing, who was used to drinking distilled spirits, couldn't stand this taste.
Wu Yuan, who was intoxicated, couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw Li Qing's face, and couldn't help but say, "Why are you frowning, isn't my Wu's wine not to the taste of adults?" ”
Li Qing nodded and said, "Have you ever heard of distilled spirits?" ”
"Distilled spirits? Isn't it the imperial wine made by Xianyang Bacchus in recent years? I've heard of it, but I've never had the pleasure of tasting it. ”
Hearing the name of the distilled liquor, Wu Yuan's face was slightly better, and the reputation of the distilled liquor had already resounded throughout Daqin, but because it had never been sold to the outside world, even if it was Wu Yuan's identity, he had never drunk the distilled liquor.
Li Qing rolled his eyes, patted his waist, took off a leather bag, shook it, then took off the stopper, and poured a cup into his cup.
The aroma of wine wafted away, Wu Yuan's nose couldn't help but move, and he couldn't help asking, "Lord Li Qing, isn't that distilled liquor in your cup?" ”
Li Qing nodded, then handed the leather bag to the Wu servant beside him, and said, "Today, the head of the Wu family invited me to drink, and I also invited the master of the Wu family to taste this distilled liquor." ”
Wu Yuan is a good drinker, and when he heard this, he hurriedly waved to the servant and asked the servant to pour him a glass.
Looking at the transparent liquor, Wu Yuan's face showed curiosity, he brought the cup to the tip of his nose, and inhaled hard, the strong aroma of the wine made Wu Yuan's face appear a trace of redness.
"Good wine."
Although he hadn't started drinking it yet, Wu Yuan couldn't help but admire, Li Qing smiled and said, "Why don't you taste it?" ”
"Hahaha."
Wu Yuan nodded, tilted his head, and poured all the wine in the cup into his mouth.
"Uh......"
This distilled liquor is no better than the low-alcohol liquor of Wushi, and after taking this sip, Wu Yuan felt that his throat was suddenly hot as swallowing a piece of wrought iron, and his face was suddenly bloody.
"Father, are you alright?"
Finding that Wu Yuan's face was wrong, Wu Ying mistakenly thought that Li Qing's wine was wrong, and immediately got up and was about to run to Wu Yuan.
"Good wine, good wine."
