Chapter 146: Jade Ice Burning is Poisonous
"Stop!" The eldest princess coughed twice and pointed to the wine in Gong E's hand, "What kind of wine are these?" ”
Gong E immediately put down the wine vat and replied: "The eldest princess knows that this is Jade Bing Yao, the emperor's favorite, and the wine for the banquet tomorrow night." ”
"Oh!" As soon as the eldest princess heard the word Yu Bingyao, her face was full of disdain, and her mouth pursed, but she said, "Since it is the emperor's favorite, it is better to let me taste it first." I used to love to drink, and without alcohol, where can I fight on the battlefield! ”
Since it was the eldest princess who ordered it, where did Gong E dare to slack off, she hurriedly brought a green glass parrot and poured a cup of glass. The color of this jade ice soju is very clean, there is no impurity, and even if Gong E falls high, the wine surface is not a little bubble. You don't need to taste it, you can tell it to be a good wine at a glance.
It's just that the eldest princess hates Lu Xiyi in her heart, and the emperor wants this wine to be used for a banquet, but she refuses to let it, and she must dissuade the emperor from next month, and no longer set the wine in Xiaoyao Wine House as tribute wine from next month. She stretched out her snow-white slender hand, her orchid fingers cocked, and she put the parrot cup to her red lips, and was about to drink it, when someone shouted in the distance: "Eldest princess, don't drink it!" ”
The eldest princess was taken aback, thinking that the wine was poisonous, so she hurriedly lowered the wine cup and turned her head to see that it was Gonggong Mo of Shangshan.
Grandpa Mo hurriedly trotted over, panting, first gave a salute to the eldest princess, and then pointed to the wine in her hand: "Your Royal Highness the princess, this wine can't be drunk!" ”
Is it really poisonous? The eldest princess stared at Grandpa Mo with a somewhat strange expression: "Why?" Could it be that someone poisoned the wine and tried to harm me? ”
However, Grandpa Mo smiled, swallowed his saliva, and waved his hand.
"Say it, don't grind!" The eldest princess's phoenix eyes were erected, and she was very majestic, as if she could see how she led the troops to fight the world with the prince of Zhenguo.
Mo Gong said fairly: "The eldest princess doesn't know, what you drink is the jade ice roasted ...... from the Xiaoyao Wine Workshop."
"Hmph, I know, the shopkeeper's name is Lu Xiyi, right?" The eldest princess really wanted to plug her ears now, and she didn't want to hear Lu Xiyi's words again.
Father-in-law Mo is good at observing words and feelings, as if listening to the words of the eldest princess, and seems to have a lot of dissatisfaction with Lu Xiyi. The eldest princess has just returned to Beijing from Anguan, why did she complain about Lu Xiyi? "Back to the eldest princess, what the old slave wants to say is not Lu Xiyi, but her wine. This jade ice roast is meat wine, and the princess is a monk and cultivator, so she can't drink it. ”
When Lu Xiyi first came to the capital, Shen Sizhuo told Wang Dafu the secret of the jade ice burning, and Wang Dafu told Kun Gonggong again, and Kun Gonggong and Mo Gonggong mentioned this matter during the conversation, so Mo Gonggong knew that the jade ice roast was meat wine.
The eldest princess listened to Gonggong Mo's words, and was about to get angry, but suddenly thought in her heart: If you are angry now, it is better to get angry again tomorrow night, and then I will let Lu Xiyi go around without eating! I paid attention to it, and the corners of my mouth hooked up with a smile: "It turned out to be meat wine, then forget it, I won't drink it!" ”
"Your Royal Highness Princess, the old slave will go and tell the emperor in a while, let him change to another kind of wine for the banquet, this kind of wine is really not suitable for ......" Before Gonggong Mo's words were finished, the eldest princess interjected.
She just wanted Yu Bing to burn the banquet so that Lu Xiyi could eat the crime: "Forget it, since it is the emperor's favorite, why change it?" I've recently become a monk, and I don't want to drink alcohol, so I just have a few sips of tea. Suddenly, his eyes were sharp, and he looked at Grandpa Mo with a bright light, "Just do what I want!" After saying that, the eldest princess drifted away.
Father-in-law Mo saw the deep meaning in the eldest princess's last eyes, but he couldn't guess what the deep meaning was for a while. However, since the eldest princess insists on burning it with jade ice, then use jade ice to burn it!
The eldest princess was very proud in her heart, and muttered in her mouth: "If I don't let Lu Xiyi suffer a little, I won't be the eldest princess of Yongguo." ”
When she came to the Imperial Garden, she happened to meet the emperor's law, and the eldest princess hurriedly flashed aside to greet her. Duke Kun announced to the emperor, and the emperor thought to himself that she was not only his own sister, but also the founder of Yongguo, how could he let her kneel and salute.
"Sister Huang, get up and speak!" The emperor got out of the sedan chair, came to the eldest princess, and personally helped her up. "You and I are a family, why bother with such a big gift."
The eldest princess smiled: "Now that you are the emperor of Yongguo, I am just a monk nun, how can I mess with dignity and humility!" If the king is not a king, and the minister is not a minister, how can the world be governed! Having said that, she stood up.
Today's spring cloud, no yang or rain, the royal garden is full of flowers, very beautiful. In particular, the cherry plum blossoms are in full bloom, full of branches and leaves, purple purple, white white, pink pink, red red, colorful, falling like snow.
"Imperial sister, you have been back in the palace for so many days, I haven't come to the imperial garden with you, I have just dealt with political affairs, just take a walk together, take a look. This spring scene passes in a flash, but it is rare. The emperor held the eldest princess's arm on one hand and walked past a cluster of cherry plum blossoms.
The emperor was full of admiration for the flower and recited a few more verses. In fact, the eldest princess didn't listen to it, but just echoed it. In fact, she was thinking about Lu Xiyi.
I saw her eyes roll, and she smiled at the emperor: "Your Majesty, I heard that you are very fond of the jade ice roast in Xiaoyao Wine Workshop, yes or no?" ”
"Exactly!" When it came to the jade ice roast, the emperor was even more happy, "This jade ice roast is really good, even the ambassador of the Li State also said that it is good, it can be said that it is the national wine of our Yongguo." ”
The eldest princess tried her best to squeeze out a smile on her face, and the so-called people smiled twice in front of the people, and discussed the matter: "Your Majesty, I don't know what the person who brewed this jade ice roast is?" ”
"I didn't mask her, but Grandpa Kun said that she was the shopkeeper of Xiaoyao Wine Shop and a little girl. I am very surprised that a girl has such a high attainment in winemaking! The more the emperor spoke, the more excited he became, and the more he spoke, the more elated he became, "Tomorrow dinner, the imperial sister can taste this once-in-a-century jade ice roast." ”
The more the emperor praised Yu Bingyao and Lu Xiyi, the more uncomfortable the eldest princess felt in her heart, but she still tried to smile on her face, and she was very stiff: "Hearing the emperor say this, I really want to see where this Lu Xiyi is sacred." Well......" Orchid pointed to her cheeks and thought for a while, "It's better like this, tomorrow night's banquet, the emperor invited her and let everyone take a look, okay?" In addition to satisfying our curiosity, it is also possible to let people know that the emperor's grace, rain and dew, the meritorious will be rewarded, and the guilty will be punished. ”
"Good, good!" The emperor stroked his palms and laughed, in fact, he also wanted to see what Lu Xiyi looked like, "Just do what the imperial sister wants." ”
At that moment, he called Gonggong Kun over and told him to go to the Xiaoyao Wine Workshop, give Lu Xiyi a set of clothes, and come to the banquet on time tomorrow night. Watching Gonggong Kun leave the imperial garden, the corners of the eldest princess's mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a shallow and imperceptible smile.
Gonggong Kun led the two eunuchs to Xiaoyao Winery, Li Xiao was in the counter and didn't see anyone else. Seeing that Li Xiao was proud to greet him, Gonggong Kun was very angry, and coughed twice: "Spread Lu Xiyi to come and receive the order!" ”
