Chapter 105: Struggling to Live, It's Hard!
Beauty, wine, food, these three things have not been liked by heroes since ancient times, Wang Xingxin thinks he is a hero, even if he is a bear now, he also thinks that he will become a big hero in the future!
Now there are beauties, there are also good wines, and of course food is indispensable!
Regardless of the heat in the kitchen, after sweating profusely to make a table of delicacies, Wang Xingxin invited the beauties to drink wine and taste the same food.
Of course, the wine is not the strong two-pot head, but the chilled Western Regions grape wine. During the banquet, Changsun Xiu asked a little puzzled: "Brother Mingshen, Xiu'er's father and brother, as well as my courtiers and generals, all love to drink the three le's pulp, and they all dislike this grape wine is too weak, why do you prefer this grape wine only if you have a stronger wine than the three le's pulp?" ”
"Haha, Xiu'er I like this grape brewing because I was greedy for this secret method of salt making by the Taiyuan royal family, and after forcibly seizing it, I was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so I thought that I and a few brothers in the village were recruited to serve as government soldiers and made a military poem about grape brewing before leaving!"
When the eldest grandson Xiu heard this, he was immediately surprised: "Brother Mingshen, come and let Xiu'er listen." ”
"Glow-in-the-dark glass of grape wine, a lot of money and beauties. Don't laugh when you're drunk, don't laugh at each other. ”
After this good poem was changed beyond recognition by Wang Xingxin, Changsun Xiu listened to it and directly squirted out the grapes that he had not swallowed in his mouth.
"Brother Mingshen, this ..... Is this a poem? ”
"Haha, ease the atmosphere, you're laughing at this show. Laugh and laugh for ten years! It's good to laugh more, you don't understand, brother, this is called humor, humor! ”
The eldest grandson Xiu gave Wang Xingxin a roll of his eyes and said: "Brother Mingshen will make a fool of people, a good poem for you to read like this, and it will make Xiu'er look ugly, hurry up and read it again, otherwise Xiu'er will be really angry!" ”
"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately. Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times. ”
After reading this complete masterpiece, Changsun Xiu's eyes were full of little stars of worship......
In this viscount's mansion, Wang Xingxin is to accompany the beauties to drink fine wine, as well as food tasting, chanting poems against each other, and talking about hobbies and unhappy.
The Viscount Mansion in Chang'an City is also Xiao Ran, but the Viscount Mansion is the Viscount Mansion of Wannian County.
Wang Jianfei looked at the huge door plaque in front of the mansion and glanced fiercely at the direction of Yuanlou Village in Lantian County, got into the carriage and went quietly......
Wang Gui did not go to send his grandson, but in the study with a copy of "The Mean" in the study, he was studying, waiting for the housekeeper to report that the second young master had left to go to Taiyuan, when he put down the book in his hand and whispered a few words to the housekeeper, then knelt and sat with his eyes closed, as if the old monk was in a state of mind......
It was getting late, and Changsun Xiu wanted to say goodbye and go home, but Wang Xingxin was very reluctant, so he proposed to send Changsun Xiu home. Although the eldest grandson Xiu was willing, when she saw that her Mingshen brother was inconvenient, she tried her best to excuse him and let him rest in the house.
In desperation, Wang Xingxin had no choice but to let Wang Da take the guards at home to escort all the way to the Zhao Guogong Mansion of Chang'an City, Changsun Wuji, regardless of the opposition of Changsun Xiu, and Wang Dacai returned.
After the eldest grandson Xiu left, Wang Xingxin told Qin Yong to make every effort to distill all the Sanle pulp sent by Li Er into alcohol, and as for the other wines, they were secretly swallowed to make two pots, anyway, Li Er didn't know how much alcohol these wines could steam, and if he found it in the future, he said: There was a lot of waste during the experiment.
It's a big deal to send Li Er a few more jars and two pots, and the soap should also be sent to the palace, presumably Li Er already knows that the eldest grandson's family still has Cheng, and the Qin Er family has used the best soap, if you don't send it to His Majesty Li Er, he will be angry and his ass will be offended.
Thinking of this, Wang Xingxin hurriedly instructed Pepper to tell Qin Yong that the petals should be steamed next, and before steaming a single petal, the steamer should be cleaned well so as not to mix the fragrance.
Wang Xingxin, who had a hasty dinner, did not sit on a rocking chair and drink iced herbal tea to tease pepper and pepper as usual, but wore a simple mask made by himself to mix perfume in the workshop.
It wasn't until more than half of the evening that 10 bottles of jasmine, moonflower, and lily were blended.
As for the flavor of the gardenia, due to the waste of the first blending, only five bottles were blended.
Wang Xingxin asked Qin Yong to find some brocade boxes, take out six bottles of perfume except for the gardenia-scented perfume, and add two bottles of gardenia to prepare to give these to the eldest grandson queen.
The best cold-made soap was also prepared for fifty pieces, and less than twenty pieces were left in the house. He also asked Wang Da to take out the two pots of five catties and one jar in the wine cellar, put thirty jars on the carriage, and prepare to enter the palace tomorrow to send them to Li Er.
Wang Xingxin, who was a little tired, took a hot bath and then lay on the bed and fell asleep.
The next day, Wang Xingxin woke up, had some breakfast, cleaned up Lisuo, and Wang Da took some guards to Taiji Palace to give gifts to Li Er, and asked for marriage by the way.
After arriving in Chang'an City, Wang Xingxin did not go to Taiji Palace first, but came to Qin Qiong's mansion first, Qin Qiong was recuperating at home and did not go to court.
"Mingshen, why are you here?"
"Uncle Qin's little nephew came to see if you were secretly drinking!"
"Haha, you kid, the old man knows in his heart, wait until his body is good before drinking, you have to leave more wine for the old man!"
"I'm afraid it won't work."
"Why? Can't you be reluctant? ”
"Look at what you said, what is the little nephew reluctant to do! It's just that Uncle should pay more attention to his diet after his body is recuperated, and it is better to drink less spirits, not more than three taels a day! If Uncle doesn't agree, Ming Shen would rather pour all the wine into the river! ”
As soon as Qin Qiong heard this, he hurriedly agreed, it would be a pity if such a fine wine was poured into the river by this bastard! Tyrannical Creatures!
After the two of them talked very happily, Wang Xingxin looked at it and went straight to the point: "Uncle, please accompany your little nephew into the palace to see Your Majesty, this is to report to Your Majesty that the perfume and alcohol have been obtained, and secondly, please ask Your Majesty to give you a marriage!" ”
Qin Qiong laughed when she heard this: "Be cautious! Anxious? This eldest grandson Xiu is a good woman, so there is no need to talk about this family anymore, and she will not let the five surnames and seven hopes! But you have to think about it, once you get married, you can't change it! Put away your careful thoughts, do you think Uncle can't see that you are a little fake on the blind date that day? ”
As soon as Wang Xingxin heard this, he defended and said: "Uncle, the little nephew has some different thoughts, but yesterday Xiu'er came to me, and the little nephew thinks that this little lady is really good, and she can be with her for a lifetime!" ”
Qin Qiong was silent for a while and said, "Please ask Your Majesty to marry today, you have one more thing to do!" ”
"What does Uncle want for his little nephew?"
"Open your heart, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you have the capacity to tolerate people! Don't do that sneaky thing, as long as Your Majesty doesn't harm your heart in your heart, no one in this Tang Dynasty can touch you! That day, your father-in-law, eldest grandson, and old fox told you not to get involved in that royal matter, especially between princes and sons, think about it, can you avoid it? Your father-in-law is just a temptation! If you think about it, let's go see Your Majesty again, if you don't think about it, I just ask Your Majesty for marriage today and don't say anything else. ”
Wang Xingxin listened to Qin Qiong very carefully, the tears in his eyes couldn't help but fall, he knelt down heavily, Qin Qiong pulled him up and knelt down again, and finally had to let him.
Wang Xingxin, who burst into tears, said: "Uncle, before I met Uncle Liu and you, no one could look down on my little nephew in that ethereal mountain, no one loved him, no one taught him seriously, and my master only taught knowledge without saying a word.
After coming down the mountain to this prosperous Tang Dynasty and being rescued by Uncle Liu, the little nephew just wants to live well, really! Ming Shen has no big ambitions, is well fed and clothed, and has a small family. It doesn't matter if you have money or not, and it doesn't matter if you have a mansion or not.
I just want to live peacefully, I don't ask for anything, if I can marry a wife, I will marry a wife and have children, a family wife and children, I didn't expect to be knighted and an official! I didn't expect to marry the noble daughter of the eldest grandson's family! Ming Shen just wants to live, he is forced! I don't want to pretend! ”
Qin Qiong looked at Wang Xingxin, who was crying while talking, and sighed and said, "Mingshen, get up!" Uncle knows, go wash up and let's go into the palace to ask Your Majesty for marriage, don't tell Your Majesty anything! There is an old man in this matter! Alive! Not easy! Do what you want to do! ”
After Wang Xingxin got up, he wiped away his tears and washed his face, Qin Qiong was already waiting for him on a horse.
After the two entered the palace, Li Er was drinking the stewed white fungus lotus seed soup stewed by the eldest grandson queen in the Lizheng Palace. I heard that Yiguo Gong and Lantian County came to see him, and he announced it after a few sips.
Li Er was overjoyed when he saw Qin Qiong, who was walking strongly, and said, "Uncle Bao, your body is getting stronger day by day!" Haha, it won't be long before my invincible uncle treasure can ride a horse again! ”
"Your Majesty, the ministers obey the words of prudence, don't drink, eat less meat, and the bones of this body are getting stronger day by day!"
"Haha, it seems that Mingshen kid really has a way!"
"Your Majesty, it's not that you are cautious and have a way, it's that the minister is bent on rushing into battle to kill the enemy for Your Majesty! Even if it's just once! ”
After hearing this, Li Er was very moved and excitedly took Qin Shubao's hand and said, "I'd rather Uncle Bao die at home!" ”
Wang Xingxin saw that this pair of good friends was about to start infinite passion there, so he interrupted: "Your Majesty, the minister has something important!" ”
Li Er glared at Wang Xingxin very dissatisfied, and said, "What's the matter?" Speak quickly! ”
"Your Majesty, the alcohol and perfume are made! And the minister also brought His Majesty some fine wine and that soap. ”
Li Eryi's face became better when he heard the perfume and alcohol, and then he was a little angry after hearing the soap: "Hmph! Lantian County, the soap that paid tribute to me can be given away, you are really bold! If it is given to Shubao, it is reasonable, and it is reasonable to give it to Wuji, but you bastard boy even sent the old goods of Zhijie, and I haven't used it yet! Do you still have my majesty in your eyes? ”
Wang Xingxin was really angry when he saw Li Er! Fortunately, I have already figured out how to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, you just said that it is reasonable to give it to Uncle Qin and Chen's father-in-law, Your Majesty understands it, but Uncle Cheng, you don't know, if the minister doesn't give it to him, he will not only rob it, but also beat the minister, and if he wants to let Uncle Cheng beat it up again and have to rest for a while, the minister is afraid that he will delay making alcohol for His Majesty and making perfume for his mother, so he has no choice but to give it to Uncle Cheng."
After listening to Wang Xingxin's sophistry, Li Er laughed and said, "Ming Shen, am I the stingy person?" Zhijie is not an outsider! How can you be angry about this? I just want to tell you that in the future, don't let people seize these little handles, if there is a royal historian in that court, I can only cure you for the crime of disrespect and beat you up! ”
After Wang Xingxin thanked Li Er for his teaching, Li Er asked people to bring in those soaps, perfumes and wine.
