Chapter 171: The Wine Is Ready

She was brilliant for a while, depressed for a while, Zhong Yihan looked at her expression and was also drunk: "I will bring Du Ruo to you tomorrow morning." ”

"Eldest Prince, thank you so much!" Lu Xiyi opened his hands and wanted to hug Zhong Yihan, but suddenly remembered that there was a difference between men and women, so he had to put his hand down again, his face was flushed, and he was embarrassed.

Lu Xiyi can finally sleep peacefully. She had a dream, dreaming that Zhong Yihan took off her mask, and just when she was about to see Zhong Yihan's face, there was a quick knock on the door, which woke her up from her good dream.

Damn it! I'm dreaming of the place I want to see the most! Lu Xiyi got up lazily, pouted, and opened the door while rubbing his eyes. It was Xiaomeng who knocked on the door!

"Little dream, what's the matter? Is it a guest who wants to buy alcohol? You just said that the shopkeeper was unwell and would open the fire later today. After Lu Xiyi finished speaking, he yawned, he was too tired to go to Chief Lu's housekeeper last night.

Xiaomeng waved his little white hand: "Sister, it's not that there are guests who want to buy wine, there are officers and soldiers!" ”

Soldiers? Lu Xiyi suddenly came to his senses, scratched his face, and looked at Xiaomeng: "What are the officers and soldiers doing?" I am ordered to make wine, who dares to arrest us? ”

"Not really!" Xiaomeng grabbed Lu Xiyi's hand, "You come out and take a look!" ”

Lu Xiyi was pulled outside the wine shop by Xiaomeng, and saw a row of officers and soldiers standing outside the door,—— to be precise, the internal guards in the palace! Not only is the front door guarded, but also the back door, and the entire Xiaoyao Distillery is surrounded!

Lu Xiyi was nervous, what did she do again, why did the emperor send internal guards to surround the Xiaoyao Wine Factory? Could it be that the emperor changed his mind and wanted to arrest her in the palace prison?

"What are you doing here?" Lu Xiyi asked the officer headed by him.

The officer said: "I am instructed by the emperor to protect the safety of the shopkeeper Lu, so that the shopkeeper Lu can brew wine with peace of mind and not be interfered with by others." Once it is successfully brewed with Liu Ling's ancient method, the wine will be offered to Ouchi immediately! ”

Lu Xiyi was not stupid, and understood what the other party meant. Nominally, it is to protect Lu Xiyi from interference by others, but in fact, it is to monitor Lu Xiyi and prevent Lu Xiyi from escaping.

Lu Xiyi couldn't help but smile, the emperor didn't know her at all, since she promised to use Liu Ling's ancient method to make fine wine, she would definitely do her best and do her best, because she was a strong person! Running away halfway is not her style.

But Lu Xiyi stuffed these words in his stomach, pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Then I have to thank the emperor for his favor!" I hope that the general will return to the emperor, and say that if I, Lu Xiyi, can't make the wine of the ancient law, I will hang myself! And you tell the emperor that I will send wine to Ouchi tomorrow at the latest! ”

A horse came to the door of the winery, and the person who came was Zhong Yihan, who was also very shocked when he saw the scene in front of him, and was about to ask the officer what happened, Lu Xiyi grabbed his hand: "Eldest prince, have you brought Du Ruo?" ”

The process of making Du Ruo wine, Lu Xiyi has completely mastered it through the wine recipe of Mr. Lu, and now as long as there is Du Ruo, she can make ancient wine.

"This is Du Ruo!" Zhong Yihan handed Lu Xiyi a package of fragrant things.

Lu Xiyi snapped his fingers and happily took Du Ruo: "Eldest son, you are my lucky star!" With that, he ran into the winery. Little dream, make a fire! Li Xiao, chop wood! Brother Liu, go buy raw materials! ”

Everything was in order, the fire in the boiler burned for a day, and the next morning, Lu Xiyi smelled a fragrance, which was simply intoxicating.

"Sister, is the wine ripe?" Xiaomeng hasn't slept all night.

Lu Xiyi impatiently moved the chair, jumped on it, scooped out a spoonful of wine from the boiler with a wine spoon, and tasted it. Sure enough, the taste is fragrant, and it is very different from the sake that is made on weekdays. The ancients made wine mainly to pay tribute to their ancestors and then enjoy it themselves, so they paid great attention to the smell of wine.

Seeing Lu Xiyi's intoxicated appearance, Xiaomeng couldn't help but swallow his saliva: "Sister, is this wine delicious?" ”

"You can taste it too." The purity is not high, Xiaomeng should be fine after drinking it. Lu Xiyi handed Xiao Meng the wine spoon, Xiao Meng took a sip of the spoon, his pupils dilated instantly, and he was shining, as if he had seen gold, but he kept nodding his head, but he didn't say a word.

Zhong Yihan took the wine spoon and took a sip, and couldn't stop appreciating: "It's really good wine!" Drinking it is like taking a perfect tonic, leaving a fragrance on your lips and teeth. This Liu Ling is really not simple, no wonder she is worshiped as the god of wine! ”

Lu Xiyi smiled. In fact, the person who is not simple is Manager Lu, and I don't know where he got Liu Ling's ancient method, that competition, if Zhong Yihan didn't make trouble in the water, Liu Ling's ancient method of wine will be on the market, I'm afraid that Lu Xiyi's Xiaoyao Wine Shop business will be declining day by day, and in the end he will have to close down.

"If this Manager Lu has a better heart, he can become friends with you if he can't say it." Zhong Yihan was like a roundworm in Lu Xiyi's stomach, knowing what she was thinking.

Zhong Yihan is not joking, the so-called gathering of likes, Mr. Lu has such good winemaking skills, Lu Xiyi is naturally happy and convinced, and it is not impossible for the two to become friends.

There was the sound of horses' hooves on the street again, and everyone looked out of the door, Gonggong Kun arrived with a few eunuchs, and he brought the wine jar.

"Shopkeeper Lu, have you made the Liu Ling ancient method wine that the emperor ordered you to brew?" Gong Kun ordered the wine jar to be placed on the table. This is not an ordinary wine vat, it is a fine product in blue and white porcelain, and it is beautifully decorated, and it is used to hold wine, which is really a bit wasteful. As soon as Gonggong Kun finished speaking, his nose shrugged, and he seemed to smell a special smell, "What kind of smell is this?" ”

"Of course, it's my sister's wine." Xiaomeng couldn't hold his mouth the most, and said it all at once.

Gonggong Kun's face was overjoyed, but his eyebrows flew up: "Sure enough? Let me taste it! ”

Lu Xiyi climbed into the chair again, scooped a spoonful and put it in the cup. Gonggong Kun stretched out his orchid finger, took the cup, just took a small sip, and let out a "hiss" from his lips, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help nodding.

Seeing Gonggong Kun stretching out his orchid finger, Xiaomeng laughed out loud. Lu Xiyi hurriedly covered Xiaomeng's mouth, glared, and signaled Xiaomeng not to laugh, Kun's father-in-law didn't look good.

"Good wine, good wine!" Gonggong Kun's cheeks turned crimson, "This thing should only be in the world, how many times can I smell it in the sky!" Shopkeeper Lu, tomorrow is the deadline given to you by the emperor, I didn't expect that today you will brew the ancient wine, and the means are really high! This time, I see how arrogant that prince of Wenguo is! ”

At this time, Lu Xiyi and Zhong Yihan knew that the emperor released her to make wine for the honor of Yongguo and the face of the royal family. But now Lu Xiyi is worried about a problem, no one has ever seen Liu Ling's ancient method, if the prince of Wenguo said that Lu Xiyi was not brewed using the ancient method, then what should I do?
