Chapter 34 A banquet is set up in the house, and the wine is heroic
One is not careful. The time has come to the end of September. The grass bean fraud case has been closed. Except for the unlucky man of Lord Xifuna. Others are ordered to repay the loan within a time limit. Such a treatment of Kangxiye. I'm not happy but I can understand it. The case is too wide-ranging. To dispose of the . Only the fourth master found out. Sixty percent of the officials in the DPRK and China could not escape.
And what the fourth master found out. It's much more than just the grass bean fraud case. I can't help but think back to what they told me. The prince found himself unmoved. It's funny to think about. He drank Chinese medicine for more than two months in vain, and he was grumpy every day. Figured out a lot of things.
This time. The fourth master will check to the end. offended many relatives and nobles in the DPRK. On Kangxi's desk, there is a thick stack of folds of "pretentiousness", "meanness", "non-etiquette" and so on. I know after that. I was angry but complained a few words. said that he was going to go to Kangxi to reason. The fourth master grabbed me. Say to me, "None of this matters. Before checking, I will discuss with you how far I want to check. But it's really time to find out. I just want to keep looking. Try to find out as much as possible. Even if the emperor does not dispose of it. At least let them know they're doing something wrong."
I shook my head and sighed. But he was at ease.
September 26. I will have a feast in the house. Invited all the buddies. Begin to sing the congregation in the afternoon. The Prince, the Third Master, the Fourth Master, the Fifth Master, the Eighth Master, the Ninth Master, the Tenth Master and the Fourteenth Master are all here. The twelve masters closed the door and chanted the scriptures. Graciously thanked me for the invitation. I don't want to wade into this muddy water. The fifteenth and sixteenth elder brothers also arrived early. I also said that the concubine asked me how I was. The seventeenth elder brother is also here. Said that his mother asked him to metabolize the supplements I sent a few days ago. The Thirteenth Master has not arrived for a long time. I know what he's going to do. And no more people to please. Just waiting to see the play.
In the evening, the feast is set up. I got all the food and drink. I haven't seen the thirteenth master yet. I smiled and said, "Don't wait for my thirteenth brother. Let's start with a table.' Jade's ice bucket gall. Please mention this first drink of the bar."
The prince stood up with his glass in his hand. Said loudly: "Since the master has said so. The prince didn't shirk either. Today, a place with 'jade' ice. It's rare for our brothers to get together like this. Have fun. This first glass of wine. Prince Ben took the lead and did it." As he spoke, he tilted his head. Dried the first cup. The others and I drank from the glass.
Several people ate a few bites of food each. I stood up and said, "Today's 'jade' ice is the east. When lifting three cups. This first cup. Thank you to the prince and all the lords for your appreciation." I said and toasted. Watch them all drink. I poured another glass. He said, "This is the second cup." Jade' Ice is an orphan. Since the forty-sixth year of the drive back to Beijing. The royal ama and the imperial grandmother are favored. I have a foothold in this capital.' Jade 'ice' a 'female' son. can get the present situation. I also want to thank the prince and all of you for taking care of you.' Jade' Ice thanks. Do it first for respect." Words. I threw my head up and drank the second cup. I poured another glass. And he said to the multitude, "This third cup." Jade' Bingjian Mansion. In this capital, I inexplicably built this mansion in the territory where the princes and grandchildren lived. It's really eye-catching. In the future, I will ask the prince and all the lords to take care of it. I can keep this little piece of my place at peace.' Jade's ice thanked me first." I said. Drink this third glass of wine.
The Tenth Master drank the wine and said with a smile: "The words of 'jade' ice are too foreign. You are our little sister. This table. Only the seventeenth brother is younger than you. We take care of you. Isn't that the way it should be? Besides. Sisters in our own palace. I'm afraid I can't find anyone like you. If it hurts you. We all feel bad in our hearts. Thank you." The tenth master is a cheerful 'sexual' son. And simple-minded. It's all from the bottom of my heart. I also felt some warmth in my heart as I listened. couldn't help laughing: "Brother Ten is embarrassed to say 'jade' ice."
The Fourteenth Master sat on my right side. He smiled and said, "You're still embarrassed." Turning his head and saying to the Tenth Master, "Tenth Brother. You can have a drink with Jade Ice today. This girl. He's got a lot of alcohol."
The Tenth Master immediately said with great interest: "Yes, yes, yes." Jade' ice. You're going to have a drink with me today. I'd rather see if you can drink it. Or your tenth brother and I drink a lot."
"I don't dare compare to the Ten. There are many of your brothers. One of them has a drink with me. I'm probably too drunk to know what to do."
But the tenth master did not agree. He turned to the prince and said, "Prince. You give the next verdict. Is it to let the 'jade' ice drink with me?"
"Prince Ben is also curious. Jade' Bing or the Tenth Brother, who has the most alcohol?"
The Tenth Master said triumphantly, "Look.' Jade' ice. This is the will of the Prince. You're going to have to drink with me."
I'm helpless. After thinking about it, he said, "Tenth brother. Let's just drink. I'm just afraid it doesn't mean anything. Let's make an order. Those who don't have the right ones to drink. If it's right. Both people are to drink. How."
"Good. Your ten brothers and I can't compare to these brothers. I can't compare to you little girl. Say it." He was full of confidence. I smiled and said, "Don't say anything else. Let's talk about the things in Beijing. For example, 'pearl wine' vs. 'amber sugar', I'll make a 'Twin Pagoda Temple.'"
"Single archway." After speaking. We raise a glass and drink one by one. The tenth master spoke: "I'll give one.' Xiangshan Temple'."
Xiangshan Temple. I thought for a moment and said, "Stinky Pond." We had another drink.
The fourth master smiled on the side: "The 'jade' ice is too cheesy." I pouted at him. Ignore him. He said to the Tenth Master again: "The North and South Hall of the Ministry of Rites."
The Tenth Master frowned. I thought about it for a long time. The Ninth Master said on the side: "You patrol the camp inside and outside the capital." The tenth master patted the table and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes. Patrol the camp inside and outside the capital."
I shook my head and said, "Tenth brother. This is Brother Nine helping you. Can't count. You still have to drink. And you're going to be punished with three drinks."
"You. . . Stinky girl. Drink it." The tenth master glared at me angrily. I had no choice but to drink three glasses in a row. Then he said, "I'll make another one. I don't believe it's hard for you. Just come out. The skin is thin and crispy." I rolled my eyes. Said: "Stuffy baked cakes. Tenth brother. Please." One of us had a drink. The tenth master didn't give up and spoke again: "Toon dumplings."
Toon dumplings. That's right." Sugar gourd." As soon as I spoke. Everyone laughed. The prince said, "This will not work. I really don't think so."
"It's all food. But that's really not right." The third master, who hadn't spoken all night, sneered and said.
The tenth master said happily: "Haha.' Jade' ice. It's time for you to get punished this time. Three cups. Not a little glass."
I shook my head and drank three glasses helplessly. That's it for a moment. None of them were idle. I'll take a look. There was a slight drunkenness on everyone's faces. The Tenth Master said impatiently: "'Jade' ice. When will you get a result when you drink it like this? Bring the jar." He finished. The 'maids' and 'women' in my house look at me. I nodded. In a few moments, someone brought a couple of small jars. This jar is more than half a catty. The Tenth Master took two. Hand me one and say, "Let's have one jar for each person. Whoever can't drink it first will admit defeat."
My eyes widened and I said, "Tenth brother. I'm going to throw in the towel now."
"No, no, no. You must drink with me. How. Don't you recognize me as a brother?" He looked at me with a smile. I had to open the seal. Holding the jar, he said, "Brother Ten. Then I will give up my life to accompany the gentleman." After speaking, the two of us raised our heads and held the jar and poured it into our stomachs. A jar goes down. I wiped my mouth. Picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. The tenth master laughed and said, "Okay. Really my good sister. Come again."
I rolled my eyes. And he took a jar of wine. Pick it up and drink it. After drinking three jars. The Tenth Master smiled and said, "Okay. Don't drink it. Your brother, I can't drink it.' Jade' ice. You're ruthless."
I sat down in a daze. He arched his hand and said, "Tenth brother. Assignment. Haha."
The Fourteenth Master whispered in my ear, "Are you okay?"
I whispered, "It's nothing. He's going to hold on a little longer. I'm afraid I'll surrender. I'll be able to spit it out after another sip." I'm done. I looked down and saw that the fourth master gave me a small spoonful of crystal shrimp balls with a spoon. I smiled and said, "Thank you, fourth brother." Eating shrimp balls with your head down. I think of Brother Thirteen again. Why hasn't it arrived? What the hell is going on. I excused myself to get up. Found a hidden place. He clasped his throat and spit out all the wine in his stomach. took the water cup handed by Lan Yue and rinsed his mouth. Asked her, "Didn't the Thirteenth Master send someone to deliver a message?" Lan Yue shook her head. Then he asked me, "My master has drunk so much. It's all right."
I shook my head and said, "It's fine. It's just that I didn't eat anything. It hurts my stomach right now. Just go back and eat something." Talking. I walked back. Back to the feast. I saw them drinking hot one by one. No one is awake anymore.
