At noon the next day, Zheng Xiu gradually woke up from his sleep.

Although there was still a dull ache all over his body, he didn't want to continue to collapse on the bed like this.

After being served by the maid and washing his face, Zheng Xiu began to endure the pain in his whole body and walked out step by step.

It's just that before he could take a few more steps, he bumped into Liu Rou who came to look for him.

"Lord Zheng, the empress invites you to have lunch together, if there is nothing urgent, it is better to stay and have a meal."

When Zheng Xiu heard Liu Rou say this, he could only agree, after all, the empress had just kept a vigil for him in person last night.

Now he just left without saying a word, which was somewhat inappropriate.

He slept well last night, although it may have something to do with the empress keeping a vigil for him.

Of course, it may also be because only deep sleep can relieve this pain.

But as a courtier, he was able to ask the empress to personally help him keep vigil, and he should be grateful no matter what.

If he hadn't crossed over later, maybe after this night, he would have followed the empress with all his heart.

Thinking of this, Zheng Xiu followed Liu Rou's footsteps and walked towards the empress's imperial garden.

The last time he came here, Zheng Xiu's mind was full of those crops that were useful for Daxia, and he didn't have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery here.

This time, after he was free, he finally had time to take a closer look at everything here.

There are countless spiritual root elixirs, which are divided into small gardens, and there is only one rare spiritual plant in each small garden.

The cherished spiritual plants in each small garden are exuding their own aura, competing for beauty and beauty.

Then Zheng Xiu saw a straight and upright plant, as if it was a guard, guarding the side of a spirit plant.

It's just that it may be because this ordinary plant can't compete for the nutrients of the spirit plant, so it is not very well developed, and the leaves are not big.

Liu Rou, who was walking in front, saw Zheng Xiu stop because of a plant, so she also stopped.

It seemed that Zheng Xiu might be interested in that spirit plant, so he also stopped and introduced Zheng Xiu.

"This is a longevity flower, which is said to be able to prolong life, but no one knows what it looks like, but it is indeed very domineering and will rob the vitality of the surrounding plants."

"But it is true that each of the gardeners who take care of this flower lives a little longer than the others."

"This plant has been planted for 600 years, and the bachelors of the farmer have also studied it for 600 years, anyway, the old man who leads the team is different every time."

Zheng Xiu doesn't care about what Liu Rou said, his honey, my arsenic.

I can't wait to die every day, you give me a long life, where can I stand that.

But that guard-like plant was something very important to him.

Wait until the two of them walk to the center of the Imperial Garden.

The empress had already sat in her previous position, and Liu Rou retreated on her own, leaving Zheng Xiu alone.

The empress patted the stool next to her and motioned for Zheng Xiu to come over, so Zheng Xiu could only move to the stool step by step.

This time, the dishes on the table were noticeably more delicious than the last time, and the aroma was even stronger.

Zheng Xiu just looked at it, and he already felt his index finger move.

It's just that because his body is still relatively sore, this time he didn't be very rude to move his chopsticks before the empress picked up the dishes.

The empress saw that Zheng Qing was much more polite this time than the last time, and nodded secretly.

The effect that Liu Rou brought over was really different from that brought by those little eunuchs.

However, in order to carry out the bribery of the human form to the end, the empress was going to pour wine for the courtiers after the vigil for the courtiers.

After all, this person can solve the problems of Great Xia many times and personally protect the people of Great Xia's national fortune.

Even if the specifications for treating him are a little excessive, in the eyes of the empress, it is completely acceptable.

Thinking like this, the empress began to pour wine for Zheng Xiu, and introduced while pouring wine.

"This wine is a tribute from Fanbang, and even if it is me, I am reluctant to drink more."

"A pot is taken out only on certain festivals, or when important ministers are feasted."

"The name of this wine is Tianshan Jiulianchun, Tianshan is the sacred mountain of Pinglan Kingdom, even if it is the birthplace of their ancestors, it is also their natural barrier, and it is also a treasure mountain for them to collect all kinds of treasures."

"Jiulianchun means that it is brewed with periwinkle grass that has grown for more than nine years."

"The water used to make this sake is from the clearest spring water on the top of the Tianshan Mountains."

"In the past, when the Pinglan Kingdom was still a vassal state of Great Xia, it naturally paid a lot of tribute every year, but with the weakening of Great Xia, some small countries also had a heart of disobedience."

"Not to mention far away, the big countries of Daqian, Nanban, and Shangyang are eyeing each other, and they are thinking about tearing off a piece of meat from Daxia's body every moment."

"Let's just say that these are close, Pinglan, Golden Lion, White Elephant, Gray Eagle, which one doesn't regard our Great Xia as a thorn in the flesh."

When the empress said this, she seemed to feel that she had said too much, so she laughed and said.

"Forget it, I won't talk about state affairs today, just about food and wine."

"In addition to the great taste, this wine has the advantage of eliminating the feeling of soreness and weakness after a workout."

"Some physical practitioners and martial arts cultivators are precious to this thing."

Zheng Xiu was not very interested in wine, but when she heard the empress say that this wine could eliminate the feeling of soreness and weakness after exercising, she wanted to try it.

Since some body cultivators and martial arts cultivators attach great importance to this thing, it must have an effect.

Thinking like this, Zheng Xiu raised his wine glass and took a sip gently.

The wine slashed through her throat, as if a line of fire slowly flowed into Zheng Xiu's body.

After that heat flowed through Zheng Xiu's body, it immediately began to relieve the fatigue around him.

Even if Zheng Xiu's fatigue is the accumulation of ordinary people for many years, Zheng Xiu still feels that this relief is very effective.

Even the body that had been tense was a little relaxed.

When the empress saw Zheng Xiu's expression of enjoyment, she also smiled.

"Aiqing, how about this wine?"

"Back to Your Majesty, this wine is indeed a rare treasure for the current Weichen."

Hearing Zheng Xiu say this, the empress thought he was polite, so she poured him another glass.

Zheng Xiu also drank it all again and drank all the wine to relieve the fatigue of his body.

Then his wine glass was empty again, and then Zheng Xiu looked at the empress holding the wine jug.

Then the empress somehow picked up the wine jug again and helped Zheng Xiu pour a glass of wine.

Then Zheng Xiu repeated the action of drinking it all again, and then continued to stare at the empress.

The empress picked up the wine jug again and helped Zheng Xiu pour a glass of wine.

After doing this four or five times, the wine in the jug has bottomed out.

Then Zheng Xiu still held the empty wine glass in his hand, and then looked at the empress holding the wine jug over there.

The empress secretly shook the wine jug in her hand, there was not much left in it, and there might be only a wine base left.

She's only had one drink herself.

"Zheng Qing, this wine is very powerful after drinking too much, and it hurts the body, so it's better to stop here."

Zheng Xiu sensed the recovery of his body, as if he was short of a glass of wine, he could completely recover.

"Your Majesty, it's better to give Weichen another cup."

What can the empress do, although she is very reluctant, but can she let other courtiers know that he is reluctant to give even a glass of wine to his courtiers?

When Zheng Xiu finished drinking the last cup, he felt that his body had fully recovered, and he wanted to have another cup to taste the taste.

found that the empress put down the wine jug in her hand, and then silently took a bite of the dish.

"Your Majesty, this wine ......"

"No, you've drunk all of this pot."

"Why don't we open another pot?"
