Chapter Ninety-Six: Above the Banquet

"This drunken immortal building was opened in Bianjing City a month ago, and the king is diligent in government, and it is understandable that he has not heard of his name!" Wang Boliao is an old man, and he can see at a glance why Zhao Kuangyin said this, and at the same time he slapped the horse over.

Zhao Kuangyin glanced at Wang Boliao, nodded contemplatively, and said, "Such good wine, lonely... Never tasted it. Looks like I'm going to have a drink soon! ”

"Why does the king have to be here in person, the boss of the Drunken Immortal Building is in the main hall at the moment!" Wang Boliao put down the wine glass in his hand with a smile and looked at Ying Xuan with a smile.

Zhao Kuangyin looked at Wang Boliao and hesitated, "Oh~..."

At this point, Ying Xuan knew that there was no way to avoid it, stood up with a wry smile, and waved at Zhao Kuangyin, saying, "King Song is really forgetful, and the plaque given by himself last month is still hanging in front of the store!" ”

"Oh! Lonely to remember! Indeed! Oops~ I've been reading the military reports at Hainan Pass every day these days, and I've forgotten about it..."Zhao Kuangyin patted his head and said with a wry smile.

Ying Xuan bowed respectfully and said, "King Song worked hard for the battle of Hainan Pass!" High... Deeply admired! ”

Zhao Kuangyin stopped and said, "Master Xuan praises it!" After speaking, Zhao Kuangyin's topic changed again, "I don't know what method Xuan Gongzi used to make such a fine wine?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present suppressed their smiling faces and looked in the direction of Ying Xuan.

At least half of the people present had been to the Drunken Immortal Building, and the rest of the people who had not been there had also ordered the little servants in the mansion to buy and taste it. When these people sighed at the flavor of the wine, they also thought about what secret recipe the Drunken Immortal Building used to make such a fine wine. This question has been entangled in their minds for a long time.

Ying Xuan looked at these stares lightly, and thought, "It's really direct enough..."

In an instant, Ying Xuan showed a casual look, and said with a smile, "It's just a local method handed down by my Ying ancestor, if the king likes it, it will be okay to send someone to send a batch every month." ”

Although Ying Xuan's performance was bland, he said that this wine shop was a secret recipe that had been inherited by the Qin clan for hundreds of years, and he interrupted Zhao Kuangyin's idea of asking for it.

After all, now that the Qin and Song dynasties rely on each other, they must not turn their faces before facing the invasion of the Chu State. Even though the Qin State now only has ten cities, the warlike legacy of the Qin people still exists, as evidenced by the invasion of the Chen State decades ago.

In the face of more than 100,000 troops, the Qin people fought in an all-round battle, and after paying several times the casualties, the Chen army who came with high spirits lost more than half! This is also because the Qin clan is fighting separately, and it is difficult to unify the order.

Now, the unification of the Ying clan can be described as expected, under the leadership of the Ying clan, in a few years, the Qin State will become a large combat force in the anti-Chu alliance!

Ying Xuan knows this very well, and so does Zhao Kuangyin!

When Ying Xuan finished saying this, the smile on Zhao Kuangyin's face immediately stopped. He knew the interests represented in this wine party, and he didn't think that he could take it out of Ying Xuan's hand, Fang Cai's words were just a warning to Ying Xuan not to continue.

"Master Xuan's good intentions, I have received it alone!"

Zhao Kuangyin raised his hand, and after finishing speaking, he hung down weakly.

With Ying Xuan's wisdom, he could definitely hear what he said, but he was thinking again, if Ying Xuan pretended not to know and continued to operate the Drunken Immortal Building, what would he Zhao Kuangyin do?

Drink order to stop?

This will not only block Qin's financial path, but will definitely create a gap between the two countries. The behemoth of Chu is lying beside it, and when it is in trouble, Song needs the help of Tang and Qin... Effort!

If the Qin State had been suspicious of the Song State because of this incident at that time, the Three Kingdoms Alliance would have collapsed! At that time, the fall of the Song Kingdom was inevitable.

Even if Zhao Kuangyin knew that such a stupid thing Ying Ke couldn't do, he had to think so! The situation of Qin and Song is different, Qin still has a military pass to block Chu, but a large area of Song is bordering Chu and cannot resist at all!

Ying Xuan looked at Zhao Kuangyin's flat face with a hint of helplessness, and suddenly thought in his heart.

"It seems that this King Song is afraid that I will kick and pretend to be confused, and continue to run the Drunken Immortal Building..."

Recently, letting Zuixianlou operate for a year or two is nothing more than a few hundred thousand taels of gold. Although there are a lot, it is nothing to the Song State, which is in the midst of economic take-off, and it can be regarded as an investment to accelerate the strength of the Qin State. Moreover, the annual tax revenue of the Drunken Immortal Building can also make Song Guoxiao make a profit.

But the close alliance between the Qin and Song dynasties will not last only a year or two.

According to the intelligence analysis of the 'Eclipse Sun' of the Song State to Chu, the war between the wealthy families and the scholars of the Han family is about to break out, and it is expected to take three years. In order to drag down the Chu State, the Tang and Song dynasties invested a lot of money in the Chu State! In order to stir up this muddy water even more turbid!

Even so, the civil strife in the state of Chu would end within five years.

Welcoming Tang, Song and Qin will be a protracted war! At least two or three years, more than ten years!

In other words, the closely linked relationship between the Tang, Song and Qin kingdoms could not cause any problems within ten years. Ying Xuan really wants to run the Drunken Immortal Building in Bianjing City, Zhao Kuangyin can only turn a blind eye!

Ying Xuan could have done that, but he wasn't that stupid. Zuixianlou really has to operate in the Song Kingdom for ten years, and the silver earned is enough to cover the tax revenue of the Song Kingdom for a year. Win Xuan could not protect Zhao Kuangyin was annoyed and ashamed, and stumbled on the Qin State in the battle of Chu.

In the same way, Ying Xuan knew that Zhao Kuangyin would not be stupid enough to do that, but he didn't dare to risk such a thing!

Ying Xuan took in the bitterness on Zhao Kuangyin's face, and planned to wait until the banquet was over to give Zhao Kuangyin a reassuring pill.

The banquet was held later, and the well-known troupes and dance workshops of Bianjing City and even the Song Kingdom all performed in the palace.

Under Zhao Kuangyin's repeated orders, the ministers finally put aside the distinction between monarchs and ministers.

At the suggestion of Zhao Kuangyin's brother Zhao Guangyi, he played with the drinking order.

Seeing that the ministers were having fun, Ying Xuan didn't want to spoil the fun, so he also participated.

The Song State was established on the mainland of Kyushu for only five years, and was bullied by Liaojin, and now this big victory is not only to win the Hainan Pass, but also to show national strength to various countries for the first time! This is indeed worthy of national celebration! Daqing!

Ying Xuan was playing with the wine order, while looking at Zhao Kuangyin and his brother Zhao Kuangyi, and thought, "I don't know if what is recorded in the wild history is true or false?" ”

In his previous life, Ying Xuan had seen a record in a wild history. Zhao Guangyi took advantage of Zhao Kuangyin's sleep to tease his favorite Ji Hua Rui's wife Fei, and was discovered by Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Kuangyin threw the jade axe in his hand at Zhao Kuangyi and was dodged by him. Seeing his brother's angry appearance, Zhao Guangyi knew that he couldn't get forgiveness, so he poisoned him.

This is another version of the interpretation of the Candle Shadow Axe.

These things also made Ying Xuan curious for a while in his previous life, and he only gave up after reading a large number of biographies and wild histories to no avail. And now, there are two people sitting in front of him, which makes Ying Xuan's curiosity alive again.

"Hey~hey~"

When Ying Xuan's mind was opened, there was a soft shout from behind.

Looking back, I saw Yang Yansi looking at him with a smile on his face.

Originally, Ying Xuan only heard of Yang Yansi and did not see him, but Zhao Kuangyin and a cadre of ministers praised the Yang family, including Yang Yansi.

In line with the curiosity of historians and the importance of the Yang family's ability, Ying Xuan kept all the six people who came to the Yang family in his heart.

"But Yang Yanhe, General Yang?"

Hearing this, Yang Yansi was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but say, "Where does Master Xuan know?" ”

Ying Xuan replied with a smile, "The battle of Hainan Pass, the general's prestige, who in the whole country does not know?" ”

"Master Xuan has won the prize!" A smile suddenly appeared on Yang Yansi's face, with a hint of embarrassment, and more smugness.

Ying Xuan carefully observed Yang Yansi's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and said with a smile: "Brother Yanzhao has great favors to me and Qin State, General Yang might as well say it directly!" If you can do it, you will do your best! ”

The expression on Yang Yansi's face suddenly faded a little, and there was a little more goodwill in his eyes when he looked at Ying Xuan.

"In that case, then I'll be blunt!" As he spoke, Yang Yansi looked at Ying Xuan with a tentative look in his eyes, and said, "Master Xuan, I don't know if I can get two jars of wine on credit with you..."

Hearing this, Ying Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "King Song's reward will be issued soon, why should General Yang worry about credit?" ”

Yang Yansi shook his head and smiled bitterly, "There were heavy casualties in this battle, according to my father's character, I will definitely donate all the rewards of myself and our six brothers to the barracks, and add an extra pension to the families of the fallen soldiers." ”

"Mrs. Yang's high righteousness, the younger generation admires! If General Yang likes the wine of my drunken immortal building, you might as well come directly! Ying Xuan smiled heartily.

Yang Yanzhao has more or less two favors for Ying Xuan, one is because of Yang Yanzhao's secret letter, so that Ying Xuan can enter the Song Palace, and there is a follow-up Three Kingdoms Alliance.

The second is to listen to the words of himself and Zhang Yi, and use the building boat to send the Qin people to Bohai County in two parts. For this reason, the plan was delayed for half a month.

Although in the end, Yue Fei owed Ying Xuan a favor, but Ying Xuan secretly remembered Yang Yanzhao's help from the bottom of his heart.

Yang Yansi shook his head and said, "There is no need to be like this, although this wine is a good wine in the world, but my father has always warned us not to drink too much, even if Xuan Gongzi is gracious, Yan Hei does not dare to go!" ”

"It's just that my eldest brother is seriously injured at home now and can't go to the temple. As a younger brother, I hope to bring two jars back for my brother to taste. As he spoke, Yang Yansi's eyes showed a bit of sadness.

"I see... If General Yang waits for a while, he can come straight after the banquet! ”

Ying Xuan's kindness made Yang Yansi feel more grateful. These days, he stays with his eldest brother Yang Yanping every day, although his work and rest are the same as usual, but his will is becoming more and more depressed.

Yang Yansi often thought that if he had been faster at that time, maybe his eldest brother would be fine. Whenever Yang Yansi watched Yang Yanping standing in the small courtyard looking at a certain place in a daze, Yang Yansi, who was standing in the dark, kept blaming himself.

This hurdle needs to be walked over by himself!

This sentence was what Yang Ye said when the other brothers sought Yang Ye's help after their hard persuasion was fruitless.

In this situation where nothing can be done, Yang Yansi only hopes to make Yang Yanping's heart feel better, so he asked Ying Xuan for two jars of wine, wanting Yang Yanping to get drunk.
