Chapter 240: Wine and Poison
Shi Baoxing naturally didn't believe that Wen could have the courage to poison their group of noble sons in public, and the only possibility was the emperor's instructions.
Thinking of this, his face became even more pale, and when he saw his brother Shi Baoji lying on the ground holding his stomach, he was groaning, and a sense of grievance arose.
Their Shi family risked the lives of the whole clan at the beginning, accompanied the current emperor, and did a deed that was enough to be wiped out by the nine clans. Now that he has ended up like this, how can it not be chilling.
"Wenjue, why is this?" Shi Baoxing, whose eyes were red, questioned again.
Wen sighed lightly and said, "Why? What else? Doing what you can is always one of the best virtues. But your brother is really ........" Wen finally could only shake his head helplessly, expressing regret.
"Even if the younger brother is right, he is a little more stubborn and reckless, but he will not be guilty of death!" Shi Baoxing clenched his fists.
Surprised: "Death? ”
Shi Bao raised his body and looked at Wen Dao: "My father accompanied His Majesty from birth to death, and only then did he establish the foundation of our dynasty for all generations. Even if the father is at fault, the sin will affect the whole family, and the light descendant is willing to die with the father to thank him for his sins. I also ask Brother Wen to intercede with His Majesty on his behalf, leave a bloodline for my Shi family, and pardon the younger brother. ”
After Shi Baoxing finished speaking, he solemnly saluted Wen with a fist.
Smelling the playful thumbs up, he smiled and said: "Amazing, such a life-and-death juncture shows that your brotherhood is as deep as the sea." But since you brothers are so affectionate, why don't you feel the taste of drunkenness together? ”
"Ahh Drunken? Shi Baoxing was stunned.
"It's not drunk, what else can it be!" Wen said angrily.
“........”
When Shi Baoxing pleaded guilty in a serious manner, he knew that he had misunderstood.
Under the imperial power, they are all ants, even the Shi family, which has contributed to the society, is still living in fear.
Wen walked to the table, picked up a huge wine jar, looked around at the group of pale gentlemen around him, and said, "Right, what you just drank is the wine in this jar?" ”
"Yes!" The surrounding gentlemen said in a trembling, almost inaudible voice. They were really scared this time, because they had never been so close to death before.
"See clearly." After raising the wine jar and signaling to everyone, he poured the wine in the jar into a large white porcelain bowl, and then lifted it, raised his head, and drank it heroically.
A hot smell of alcohol burned all the way down the throat to the stomach, making Wen Wen can't help but burp a big wine.
Sniffing the wine stuck to his lips with his thumb, he exclaimed, "Good wine!" ”
“.......”
The gentlemen present immediately looked at each other when they saw this heroic drinking action, and they didn't know how to react.
At this moment, Shi Baoxing was also embarrassed.
Especially when he heard his brother muttering the word good wine in his mouth, and let out a sound of sound like thunder, his face was even more ashamed.
Seeing that the misunderstanding had been resolved, Wen Cai shook his head with a wry smile.
When he saw a big seventy on the wine jar, marked in black and red on red paper, he knew what was going on.
At this time, the wine, even if it is the highest degree of Sanle pulp, its degree is only about 20 degrees, but the wine of Wenfu cannot be called wine at all, although it smells like wine, but Wen prefers to call it the failure of alcohol refining.
Up to 70 degrees of wine, if you haven't experienced the edification of high alcohol, you will drink more than half a catty like this, even if you have the physique of an adult, you will be put down, let alone a half-sized child like Shi Baoji.
With such a high alcohol content, if people's stomach and intestines are not used to it, as long as they are careless, they will be poisoned by alcohol. Now everyone is squirming, but they just feel that their stomachs are hot as poisoning, which is already a great luck in misfortune.
"The name of this wine is: burnt knives! Drink it like a fire burning, and taste it like a steel knife scraping bones. For the first time drinking, the younger brother suggested that it is better for you to taste it lightly, even if you brothers and friends have a copper intestine and iron stomach, I am afraid that you are not the opponent of this wine. Seeing that the scene was a little embarrassing, Wen smiled and introduced this failed product of alcohol refining.
"What a burning knife!" Shi Baoxing said with a wry smile.
Wen patted Shi Baoxing's shoulder, sighed lightly, and said: "Actually, all brothers and friends came today, and what they did, even if you brothers and friends are not easy to say, I still know very well, little brother."
Since all of you brothers and friends and clansmen are worried about this, why don't you ask Your Majesty to be recited, and ask all your brothers and friends to organize this banquet together with your younger brother? ”
"Really?" Shi Baoxing said excitedly.
"Naturally, take it seriously." Wen smiled and nodded: "With such a big banquet, I can't handle it for my brother alone." It's just that I have to bother my brothers and friends to give my little brother a shot. ”
"Naturally, there is no problem, Brother Wen can rest assured." Shi Baoxing assured. As long as you can participate in the preparation of the banquet, you will know the layout of the banquet and the recipes used. At the very least, you'll know if the food has been poisoned!
"That's it." Wen finalized: "But I still have to trouble the light descendant to name all the brothers and friends who are willing to contribute to this banquet, make a list, and report to His Majesty for his kindness." ”
"It's nature." Shi Baoxing responded.
Seeing Shi Baoxing's readiness to agree, Wen just smiled lightly, glanced at Shi Baoji, who was still lying on the ground, and said: "If Brother Ling continues to lie here, I'm afraid he will catch a cold and get sick, so let's help him to the guest room and take a nap."
Prepare some hangover soup for the brotherhood and send it to Brother Ling. ”
"Thank you, Brother Wen." Shi Baoxing clenched his fists and saluted.
Wen Xiao sighed and said: "The color is a bone scraper, and the wine is a poison that pierces the intestines." After Brother Ling woke up, he was advised to drink as little as possible in the future. Otherwise, it will be too late for it to cause a catastrophe. ”
"Hearing my brother's good words, the younger brother will definitely inform my brother." Shi Baoxing sighed lightly and said: "I don't thank you for my great kindness, when I hear my brother's love today, my younger brother must remember it in my heart." ”
Today's things can be big or small, as long as you smell the evil intentions, then none of these gentlemen present today will have a good end.
Whether it is suspicion that a viscount of a country has assassinated the children of a colleague, or suspects that the king of a country is an ungrateful tyrant, it is enough to make them unable to eat and walk around.
Even if it is for the sake of their father's contribution to the society, they will not be held accountable, but their future career will definitely be completely finished.
