He just has a hobby, he likes drinking, especially the good wine in the palace. However, during annual celebrations, his duty is to abstain from drinking. Palace banquets like this are rare for him. The opportunity gave him a chance to drink as much as he wanted. Even the conflict at Queen Mother Zhou's table didn't stop him from drinking.
At this time, he was very drunk, his face smelled of alcohol, and he couldn't control his tongue, otherwise he wouldn't have rashly interrupted just now.
At this point, if anyone doesn't let him drink, he will fight to the death!
"Pour the wine! Pour the wine! As long as you let me drink to my heart's content, I will tell you the story!"
Zhou Tongli stuck his tongue out and stared at the third-grade official who said he wanted to pour him wine.
Everyone was happy, and the third-rank minister took a big bowl with a smile and poured him a full bowl of wine.
They all knew that Zhou Tongli had already benefited from drinking the wine, and if he drank this bowl of wine, he would not be able to keep any secrets.
Sure enough, after Zhou Tongli drank the bowl of wine, his eyes were straight, his body was swaying, and he was swaying around in his chair.
The ministers around him quickly supported him.
"Brother Zhou, tell me what's going on with the Imperial Censor?"
"This is the censor of the Imperial Procuratorate. I'll scare you when I talk about it!"
Zhou Tongli spoke with a loud tongue and was slurred when he spoke, but everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
Telling the truth after drinking, this sentence is most suitable for Zhou Tongli.
"Haha, scare us? Okay, you should tell us quickly and see how you can scare us."
All the ministers looked at each other and smiled disapprovingly.
"The reason you haven't heard of the name "Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate" is because you don't know how powerful this official is. A few decades ago, no matter who he was or how big the official was, as long as he heard the name "Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate" These five words "Censor" will make your legs weak and your whole body trembling with fear."
Zhou Tongli's words made the ministers laugh again.
"So powerful? But how come we have never heard of such a powerful official!"
"Everything is a procuratorate. I have lived in the capital for dozens of miles. I know this court and that court, but I have never heard of a procuratorate!"
Zhou Tongli looked at the man with drunken eyes and sneered: "You haven't heard of it, which means you are young and ignorant."
The man was not angry and did not want to argue with the drunken words of a drunkard like him. Instead, he smiled and said: "Yes, yes, yes, I am ill-informed. You are well-informed. Please continue talking and let us frogs in the well know." Isn’t this how powerful the imperial censor is?”
As he spoke, he smiled and winked at the people around him, obviously making fun of Zhou Tongli.
People around him laughed again.
Zhou Tongli snorted: "I advise you to have a few drinks to strengthen your courage, so as not to make your legs weak and weak after hearing what I said."
"Haha, okay, let's have a drink together to strengthen our courage, so as not to be scared and fall down."
The ministers laughed and really all drank.
Everyone put down their wine glasses and looked at Zhou Tongli with smiles on their lips, obviously they were ready to hear a joke.
Zhou Tongli's face was very serious, without any smile.
He drank a glass of wine first, then shook his head and let out a long sigh, with a look of confusion in his eyes.
"You have never heard of the official position of Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, let alone the Metropolitan Procuratorate. I don't blame you, because the Metropolitan Procuratorate ceased to exist decades ago..."
