Chapter Seventy-Eight: Failure in the Wine Fight
Between the staggering, Xiaogui just secretly missed Xu Yongzhi.
When she was young, she went out with Xu Yongzhi, and Xu Yongzhi would tell her those stories of hard work at night.
King Wu of Zhou fought hard and finally unified.
The king of Shang drank and feasted with candles, so he died in the country.
People should go to bed early and get up early, study and practice martial arts, people are rare in seventy years, if they don't study and make contributions, then they come to this world for nothing.
At that time, Xu Yongzhi, who was seventeen or eighteen years old, had that kind of youthfulness.
What Xiaogui misses is that kind of youthfulness.
These people here today can be described as the real Jiangnan elite.
Poets, lyricists, composers, dancers, drummers, painters, calligraphers, jinshi...... There was also the emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Who of these people didn't have the dream of changing the world when they were young?
As a result, when I entered the adult world, I found that reality was very hard, and an individual could do very, very little.
Your work no longer makes you happy, so you start looking for happiness outside of work.
You find that wine is a good thing;
You find the big house to be a good thing;
You think it's good that the yard is full of exotic flowers and plants;
You've got a good horse;
You've got an expensive dog;
You have a cute cat;
You have taken beautiful concubines;
You bought a cunning girl;
After nightfall, you find the ultimate in their pleasure.
You endure work you don't like, the ridicule and stares of your superiors, and you are careful with them, because only then will you have better horses, better wine, and more beautiful women to enjoy.
In the end, all your pleasure comes from your animal instincts, and you will never find the great pleasure that comes from the light of reason, because of the reason why man is human.
In this matter, Tao Yuanming thought more clearly.
The land is one's own, the house is one's own, and the daily labor satisfies one's own happiness.
When he is resting, he writes poems, poems that he thinks in his heart and writes with his heart.
Some people say, "Can poetry sell for money?" ”
Poems can be sold for money, and poems can also change officials.
But the poem itself is the greatest reward and reward for the poet.
Xiaogui looked at Han Xizai, an adult with bags under his eyes, such a smart person, if he used his talent in poetry and rhythm, he didn't know how much he would achieve, but his mind was on how to make Li Yu feel at ease with him.
Xiao Gui looked at the art emperor Li Yu, such a romantic and peerless person, if he put all his talent on painting and lyrics, he didn't know how much valuable wealth he could leave behind, but most of his thoughts were used on how to intimidate Lord Han, Lord Xu, and the envoys of Jiedu.
Look at Li Lianqiao again, although this person is ruthless, he is actually a talented person, if he can devote his energy to writing and performing dramas, he will definitely be an excellent legendary author and a famous singer.
But now they are enjoying the carnival of such animal instincts, drinking, singing, laughing, catching famous prostitutes and beautiful children, carrying them into the room to laugh and laugh, and they numb themselves with such pleasure, just to tell themselves that tomorrow will come, and that we are very safe.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" Li Yu picked up his wine glass.
"Your Majesty!"
"Don't call Your Majesty!" Li Yu said, well, there is no courtesy of monarchs and ministers today.
Now everyone is a little stupid, so you can't call each other by name.
Han Xizai suddenly became nervous and stared at Xiao Gui, he knew that Xiao Gui was in a hurry.
Xiaogui raised his wine glass.
"Got it, Shangxian!"
"Immortals?" Li Yu rolled his eyes.
Everyone was extremely nervous.
"Aren't you a wine fairy in the Nether Realm?" Xiaogui said.
"Hahahaha!" Li Yu laughed.
The crowd erupted in cheers!
"To the immortals! To the Immortals! ”
Han Xizai breathed a sigh of relief, this nickname is well-known.
Xiaogui knows how to deal with this kind of scene, and she can also make witty remarks, but she doesn't like it at all.
"Fellow immortals!" Li Yu said excitedly.
"Shangxian!" Everyone agreed.
"I'm here, I want to praise our beautiful fairy of the Tang Dynasty, the eldest princess Li Forsythia!"
Everyone looked over and saw that Li Lianqiao was smiling very charmingly, drinking wine, and his face was full of peach blossoms.
"I won't talk about the details, in short, the collapse of the enemy has a lot to do with the efforts of the eldest princess! I decided to increase the territory of 1,000 households and make Tang Muyi for the eldest princess! Li Yu said proudly.
Tang Muyi, equivalent to "makeup fee", in short, is a special allowance, this reward is quite large.
There is a poem, called "The penitent husband seeks the marquis", since the Han Dynasty, there is a difference between the county marquis, the township marquis and the pavilion marquis, Zhuge Liang is the founding hero of the Shu Han Dynasty, but the township marquis, Cao Cao won over Guan Yu, but the pavilion marquis. 1,000 households, that is the treatment of a township, in the fifth generation of the Tang Dynasty, to add a princess to the territory of 1,000 households, Li Forsythia must have made a great contribution.
Xiao Gui only understood at this time why he went to tell Li Yu that Chai Rong was dead, and he was not surprised at all.
He and Li Lianqiao have been pushing for Chai Rong's early death, although he didn't go into details, Li Lianqiao either assassinated Chai Rong, or did something to hasten Chai Rong's death.
"I'm so stupid!" Xiaogui understood at once.
I trust Li Yu and think he is an interesting and loving man.
But Li Yu is first and foremost a king, and then a man.
In order to fulfill his responsibilities as king, he would rather put Xiaogui in danger.
Li Yu at least acquiesced in Li Lianqiao's dispatch of assassins when Xiaogui was on an envoy.
On the contrary, Xu Yongzhi's idea of raiding the princess's mansion was reckless, but it was right.
If the princess's mansion had been knocked out earlier, or the evidence had been obtained, Chai Rong's death might not have happened.
The guests toasted to Forsythia Lee,
"Shangxian, I have a request." Before Li Lianqiao drank, he asked Li Yu first.
"Don't talk about business, don't spoil the fun." Li Yu said.
"It's not too much, it's about drinking, can you say?" Li Lianqiao said.
"Say, if you make a request today, I can't thin your face." Li Yu was very interested.
"I can drink it today, but I want Zhaoyi to accompany me for a drink, okay?" Li Lianqiao looked at Xiaogui with a provocative gaze.
Xiaogui is in a belly of resentment.
"One-to-one, right?"
She stepped into the corner of the hall, grabbed a large wine jar, and pushed it flat towards Forsythia.
This wine jar was carrying wine, at least seventy or eighty catties in weight, Li Forsythia didn't dare to use his strength to pick it up, so he quickly used an incubation technique, supported the wine jar out of thin air, and gently put it down.
Xiaogui carried another altar by himself.
"Bring the big bowl!" She called the waiter.
The guests cheered.
All middle-aged greasy dinners like to watch dramatic scenes.
The two most beautiful women in the Southern Tang Dynasty court are fighting wine, who doesn't like to watch it?
Everyone toasted to the two of them, and Xiaogui and Li Lianqiao put big bowls in front of them, and they fought bowl by bowl.
This is the pure way to drink.
"Can the people of Xingqing Mansion drink so well?" Li Lianqiao said.
"It's Yan'an Mansion!" Xiaogui said.
"We southerners look like desolate places." Li Lianqiao said.
"Desolate or not, I don't know, as a native of Tanzhou, you actually burned your hometown of Linquan Town to white ground, you are really a person who loves the countryside." Xiaogui said.
"You don't need to talk about this matter, it's not my business, Your Majesty has already made a decision." Li Lianqiao said.
The two of them kept talking, and they couldn't stop drinking.
After a while, a dozen bowls fell into the stomach.
Xiaogui's amount of alcohol is actually quite average, but her internal strength is Longhu Mountain all the way, Xuanmen is authentic, she gently lowered her left hand, and forced the wine out of her body from her fingers, so after being red for a while, her face gradually turned white.
Li Forsythia's alcohol consumption is really good, and he has practiced it, but when he saw Xiaogui's face change, he knew it in his heart.
"You thief." She thought to herself, and pondered a plan.
"Drink like this, everyone is tired of watching it, Zhaoyi, you have been in Datang for so long, we haven't drunk it affectionately, let's have a drink."
"Good toast! Good go! A group of old men laughed very happily, although they usually belonged to different factions, but the label of men made them stand together tonight.
Li Lianqiao walked over with a bowl.
Xiaogui knew that he had to guard against this woman's plot, so when Li Lianqiao stretched out his arm to wrap around Xiaogui's arm, Xiaogui used his left hand to clasp her left hand to prevent her from suddenly hurting people.
"Good sister, what do you think of me?" Li Lianqiao laughed.
Then, she leaned close to Xiaogui's ear.
"Silly, you really make me feel sorry, I used to think that you were stronger than Xu Yongzhi, but I didn't expect you to be weaker than him!" Li Lianqiao had a smile on his face, but he had cruel words on his lips.
Xiaogui suppressed his anger, "This is to provoke me, patience, patience." ”
After the two finished drinking, Li Lianqiao returned to his seat, "Ah, Zhaoyi is really a good amount of alcohol, I admit defeat, admit defeat!" ”
This time it was really a surprise to Xiaogui.
"That's the end of it?"
She was about to breathe a sigh of relief when she suddenly saw the signature cunning glint in Lianqiao's eyes.
At the same time, her heart was beating ordinarily, the muscles of her body involuntarily relaxed, and the whole person was soft.
She leaned back on the couch, a thought in her heart.
"Oh no, calculated by this wicked woman."
It should be that when she was talking to her face, she did something in the wine.
Mandala again!
There is a painting of Buddhist Vajrayana called the mandala.
Among the round walls there is a square wall, and in the middle there is a round wall.
If you see this kind of mandala thangka or model sculpture in a museum, the narrator will tell you that this is the image of a mandala.
Actually, the mandala flower itself is not like that.
That's the person who painted, the fantasy in front of him after taking the mandala.
Anyone who uses a mandala for the first time is full of all kinds of squares and circles in front of them, blooming all night.
Xiaogui's brain is awake and quite sober, but his body doesn't listen to the call, and he doesn't listen to the call at all.
Many thoughts and thoughts rushed into her mind, and her sense of hearing became especially acute, and every word in the hall was in her ears.
But to the people around her, she slept like a well-behaved kitten.
Li Yu hugged Xiaogui up, and Li Forsythia next to him followed.
Han Xizai's house has a particularly large guest room, which is used for guests to rest in between, of course, most of the things that are confused, men and women, also happen here.
People outside are still singing and dancing, and some people leave the table to sleep on their own, or sleep with others, which is a common situation for this kind of carnival.
"What did you do? How do you make her drink like this? Li Yu asked Li Forsythia.
"I didn't do anything," Li Lianqiao's voice played an innocent role, "Your Zhaoyi is reckless, I think she Xiazhou girl is born to drink." ”
"People have said several times that it is Yan'an Mansion." Li Yu said.
"You're still distressed, what's the difference." Li Lianqiao said.
"Of course I'm distressed, this is my woman." Li Yu said.
"Silly words, number one, is this your man? The most important thing in her heart is the kid surnamed Xu; Second, is this a woman? "Li Lianqiao really pierces people's hearts with every sentence.
Xiaogui almost laughed angrily, but his body just couldn't move.
"It's not that you don't give it a try! Seriously, is it really possible for me to ask you for that? Li Yu asked Li Forsythia.
"There are still a lot of experiments, you don't think it's such a rebellious thing, you can do it in two or three months." Li Lianqiao said.
"That's right, you better hurry up, it's easy to talk about the funds or something."
"I'll do it as soon as possible, by the way, you...... Have you slept with her? Li Lianqiao asked Li Yu.
"Not yet." Li Yu said.
"Then I'll help you." Li Lianqiao said.
"I don't want you to help, it's not interesting for her to be like this now." Li Yu said.
"What's interesting or boring, look at her, in the past six months, she has become more and more beautiful." Li Forsythia egged on Li Yu.
"Now, she's as soft as a cat."
Xiaogui felt that Li Lianqiao was caressing his cheek with his fingers.
"You like her and are full of desire for her, but you tell yourself that you want him to throw himself into his arms and obey you, you are like Cao Cao loves Guan Yu, but I want to tell you that this kind of love without skin will end sooner or later, and she will eventually return to the man she is more accustomed to." Li Lianqiao said.
Li Yu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and did not speak.
"Look at her neck, how white." Li Forsythia fiddled with Xiaogui's neckline.
"No...... I feel that I have to wait a little longer, but I still can't accept it......," Li Yu said.
"Hahaha, our number one artist in the past and present, the Son of Heaven, is so straight, he can't accept such a physical ......" Li Lianqiao smiled coquettishly, making fun of Li Yu.
"Isn't it normal for people to have their own preferences?" Li Yu said unconvinced.
"Then I'll give it to you, okay!" Li Lianqiao is poor and dagger.
"Shameless!" Xiaogui scolded secretly, thinking of the queen's instructions, Li Lianqiao was indeed dishonest.
"Don't dare to ask for it, your price is too high to pay." Li Yu thought clearly.
This sentence is really a myriad of subtexts.
Xiaogui is pondering this matter:
Li Yu and Li Lianqiao obviously had a past.
Li's sex is a means of controlling men.
Li Yu found that every time he was happy with Li Forsythia, he gave her a lot of things, and it gradually faded.
Now the two are relatively simple political allies.
Like a lot of ex-boyfriends and ex-girlfriends who are still working together.
"Brother Emperor, don't be so nervous, don't be so nervous this time, don't ask for a price this time, count me as a favor for you this time, who asked me to transfer you to this part." Li Lianqiao said.
Li Yu looked at Xiaogui, and then looked at Li Forsythia.
"Don't worry, she's sleeping soundly, it doesn't matter if you kiss her or something."
Xiaogui secretly scolded Li Lianqiao in his heart.
"Besides, what are you afraid of, she is your Zhaoyi, you pay money every month, why doesn't she work!"
Even if you are an emperor, after drinking so much wine, spending a good night with such two women is also a choice full of temptation.
Li Yu lay down and hugged Xiao Gui who was lying on his side tightly, after all, he had also hugged her to sleep before.
Li Lianqiao crept up and sat on top of him.
The room was filled with a violent and hot liquor.
It's strange that Xiaogui doesn't reject Li Yu's kisses and touches at all.
But her Li Forsythia's demonstrative murmurs and moans.
This wicked woman torments people and can always come up with new tricks!
