The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 438

[Chapter 438 Osmanthus Brewed]

When the two ministers next to him heard this, their expressions became a little strange.

Emperor Chu was also slightly startled, then he shook his head with a smile and said: “You,

Uncle Zhao, just Uncle Zhao, I just mentioned the drunken side and sweet-scented osmanthus brew, all in one pot, I would like to have a taste of this Is the sweet-scented osmanthus brew really as good as you said?”

When Liu Cheng heard this, he hurriedly waved to the young man in Tsing Yi who was busy next to him: “Man, there is a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus brew on this table and a drink!”

“Okay.”

The young man responded first, walked up to him, and then changed his words: “It’s just that, sir, the price of a drunken meal at Chunfeng Tower is by the cup. There are five of you. I’ll serve it to you.” Five glasses of wine, okay?”

Liu Cheng opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

When Fang Xiu saw this, he waved his hand and said, “This person is the elder in my family. Since he said he wanted a pot, he will give it a pot.”

“This guest is not a young one.”

The boy heard him He looked embarrassed and wanted to say something.

However, when he turned around and saw that it was Fang Xiu, he was startled and blurted out: “Master, why is it you?”

“Ahem.”

When Fang Xiu heard the word “Master”, he coughed twice and said, “Hurry up and go.” “

Yes

, young master!”

The young man heard the young master’s instructions and responded hurriedly: “Masters, the young ones are blind and don’t know Taishan. Please wait a moment while the young man goes to get you drinks!” “

After the boy left, the old emperor glanced at Fang Xiu and said teasingly: “This guy from Chunfeng Tower has a good eye. As soon as he sees you, he will know that the young master from Anping Mansion is here.”

Fang Xiu heard this. , laughed twice awkwardly, and replied: “I come to this Chunfeng Tower many times, and all the boys know me.”

The nobles and officials of the Chu State are not allowed to do business. This matter is written in the Chu Law. of.

However, as time went by, the merchants had more or less contact with the nobles.

Many nobles and officials even started their own industries. Emperors of all dynasties knew about this.

I want to ban it, but it’s not very possible.

After all, as long as there are interests, such things cannot be completely prohibited, so they always turn a blind eye.

“Sir, your wine is here!”

In just one sentence, the young man in Tsing Yi brought two jugs of wine to the table. After putting them down, he said respectfully: “Please take it easy, gentlemen. The younger one is standing next to you.” “If you have anything to do, please tell me.”

This young man in green obviously also knows that the status of a person who can be called “Uncle Zhao” by the young master is definitely extraordinary.

So, I stood four or five meters away from the table and waited quietly.

This distance is more suitable. He can’t hear the nobles talking.

But if there is any order, he can arrive as soon as possible.

See, the guys at Chunfeng Restaurant have been trained for a period of time, and their worldly manners are different from those of the waiters in other restaurants.

Emperor Chu glanced at Fang Xiu, who was drunk, and said slowly: “Pour some wine.”

Liu Cheng beside him hurriedly picked up the sweet-scented osmanthus wine and filled it up with the cup in front of Emperor Chu.

Emperor Chu was also a good drinker.

During this period, Chu was suffering from domestic and foreign troubles, and various state governments were constantly submitting memorials before the case, so he hardly had a good rest.

I go to Nuan Pavilion early every morning to deal with memorials. It is rare to leave the palace, so naturally I want to relax.

As soon as the wine was filled, he picked it up and took a gentle sip.

Suddenly, a refreshing taste filled the tip of my tongue.

The wine with the faint scent of osmanthus slid down his throat as if it were nothing, leaving him feeling refreshed.

“Good wine.”

Emperor Chu just took a sip and couldn’t help but sigh.

He looked at Fang Xiu with his eyes and said with a smile: “You are really good at brewing wine.

If you hadn’t been so talented and unwilling to be constrained by red tape, I would have really wanted to keep you in my house and brew wine for the rest of my life.” .”

After hearing this, Fang Xiu smiled and said nothing.

This sweet-scented osmanthus wine is also made through distillation technology, but the degree is diluted and some sweet-scented osmanthus is added to form a unique flavor.

In later generations, you could buy a bottle in ordinary supermarkets for more than ten yuan, but here, although it cannot be called a fine wine, it is still a priceless wine.

Emperor Chu drank a cup of sweet-scented osmanthus brew. Not only did his throat feel refreshed, but his mood also improved a lot.

The worries in the palace during this period were also swept away.

He looked at the other two ministers and said, “Pour a glass for both of them. It’s really not interesting to drink such a fine wine alone.”

When Liu Cheng heard this, he hurriedly responded: “Yes, sir.” !”

After hearing this, the two ministers looked grateful and said, “Thank you, sir.” When

the old emperor saw this, he waved his hands and said, “As I said, since we are outside the palace, I will .”

Don’t have so much red tape.

I don’t like to hear these words, and you don’t like to say them either. What’s the point of saying them?

Since I’ve rewarded you with wine, why don’t you just taste the wine?” When

Tang Zhengtong and Zhou Nan heard this, they

both looked ashamed. Fang Xiu was a little disdainful after hearing this.

Nonsense, you are the emperor who is so high and mighty, you can do it with just one sentence

It is not necessary to be so reserved in front of you.

Just

a

cup of sweet-scented osmanthus wine made his face turn a little red

.

When Xiu saw his expression, he smiled and said with a smile: “Fang Xiu, if my guess is correct, you must be slandering me again.”

When Fang Xiu heard this, he suddenly felt like a man sitting at home, pot. Feeling like he came from the sky, he hurriedly said: “I didn’t, I’m not, Uncle Zhao, don’t talk nonsense. “

The two ministers next to me who denied it for three consecutive times were trembling.

Especially the sentence: Don’t talk nonsense.

It made both of their hearts rise to their throats.

After hearing this, the old emperor smiled even more happily. He waved his hand and said: “You are the only one in the world who dares to say this in front of me.

Do you know why I like you?

It’s not just that you have the talent of a king, it’s not just that you care about the country and the people, it’s not just that you have no second thoughts, it’s your sincere heart!

You don’t like telling lies or doing things you don’t want to do.

From you, sir, I see what I was like when I was a child.

Now, the only person around me, Master, is Hao’er, who is still a child and can be like you.”

The expressions on the faces of Tang Zhengtong and Zhou Nan next to them were very tangled.

They wanted to cover their ears and treat themselves as themselves. He didn’t hear these words.

Liu Cheng looked like he was used to it, and his eyes drifted away.

Fang Xiu’s expression also became a little strange.

I heard that the old emperor was also a good drinker. , as if drunk.

Sure enough, none of the rumors about the emperor are credible
