Imperial Palace, Xiyuan.
After Li Er finished the morning court, he came to Queen Changsun and had lunch with her.
"Your Majesty, this is the chicken that I asked the imperial chef to imitate. Your Majesty, try it and see how it goes."
Changsun gently gave Li Er a piece of chicken to nibble on and smiled lightly.
"Oh? Maid Guanyin is really thoughtful. Haha, let me have a taste."
Li Er picked up the chopsticks in surprise, tasted the chicken together, and then praised:
"Hmm~, not bad, not bad. It tastes very similar to Zuixianlou. Guanyin Maid has paid great attention to it."
If Li Zexuan were here, he would definitely accuse Li Er of this random copycat behavior, but Datang didn't seem to have the awareness to protect original inventions.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here."
A chamberlain came forward and reported cautiously.
"Oh? Then let him in."
Li Er said casually.
After a while, Li Chengqian entered the palace, followed by a chamberlain carrying two wine jars.
"My son, I would like to send my regards to my father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen!"
Li Er smiled and nodded, and asked: "Cheng Qian is not having lunch in the East Palace, why are you here?"
Li Chengqian bowed and said: "Back to my father, I have just received two kinds of strange wines that are popular in Chang'an. One is warm and mellow, and the other is spicy and sweet. The taste is unique before my time in the Tang Dynasty. I brought it here to show my respect. Father, Queen and Mother.”
After the winery prepared the first batch of wine yesterday, Li Zexuan sealed four jars of wine with ice cubes and had them delivered to Li Chengqian today.
He borrowed the name of Chengjia Winery to make wine. In the final analysis, it was a side effect. If you really look into it, it was against the law. Therefore, he sent a few jars of wine to Li Er first as a sign of goodwill in advance, so that Li Er wouldn't get hold of him. Don't let go of your little tail.
Li Er was aroused by Li Chengqian's colorful description, and he said curiously:
"This is new. There is wine in Chang'an City that I have never drunk before? Chengqian, please bring it up for your mother and me to see."
Li Chengqian took the wine jar from the waiter's hand and came up to pour Li Er a glass of immortal drunkenness. The bright red wine slowly flowed down the wall of the cup, and a scent of wine immediately filled the entire palace.
The eldest grandson said in surprise: "Chengqian, what kind of wine is this? The aroma of the wine is so strong?"
Although she didn't know how to drink, it was the first time he had seen such a strong-smelling wine, so he couldn't help but ask.
A trace of surprise flashed in Li Er's eyes, and he also cast a questioning look at Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian said quickly: "After returning to my mother, this wine is called Shenxian Zui. It is made by condensing Jiannan Shaochun using a special method and mixing it with mountain fruit wine in a certain proportion. It is extremely strong. Please be careful when drinking it." Savor slowly.”
The eldest grandson couldn't help but chuckled and said: "The Immortal is Drunken. The person who named it has such a strong voice. I wonder if this wine can really make the Immortal drunk? Your Majesty, try it quickly. This can be regarded as a sign of filial piety from Qian!"
Li Er nodded, picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and couldn't help but grinned and praised:
"Mr. Guanyin, this wine is really capable of intoxicating the gods. I have never drunk such a strong wine. It is so enjoyable!"
The eldest grandson covered his mouth and said with a smile: "As long as your majesty likes it!"
At this time, Li Zexuan picked up another jar of wine, poured a glass for his eldest grandson, and said with a smile:
"Mother, there is also a kind of wine here. It is mild and mellow in nature. It is specially prepared for people who don't know how to drink. Please try it, Mother. It won't be intoxicating."
The wine glasses used in the palace were colored glass cups brought as tributes from foreign countries. The gentle pink color was poured into the glass cup, reflecting the sunlight like a pink spring. Changsun was a little tempted just by looking at this beautiful color. She couldn't help it. He asked:
"Just by looking at the color of this wine, it is extremely enchanting and charming. Cheng Qian, what kind of wine is this?"
Li Chengqian replied: "Back to my mother, this wine is called Wenwenxiang, which means gentle and soft. It is not easy to be intoxicating."
Li Er couldn't help stroking his palms and smiling: "Renwenxiang, this is a good name. This wine is most suitable for a gentle and quiet woman like Guanyin."
Changsun's pink face immediately turned red, and he glanced at Li Er charmingly. How could Li Er show affection in front of his son like this
Li Chengqian was caught off guard and was fed a mouthful of dog food by his parents. He quickly lowered his eyebrows and stood aside, pretending not to hear anything.
To hide her shyness, Empress Changsun hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said, "Since Chengqian you said this wine is not intoxicating, then I will try it."
Li Chengqian quickly bowed and said goodbye: "Father, Queen and Queen, please taste it slowly. I will take my leave first."
He was afraid that if he stayed here, when Li Er got drunk, he would hear something he shouldn't have heard. This god got drunk very quickly.
Li Er was also a little embarrassed. Hearing this, he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
Li Chengqian felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and quickly bowed and retreated.
... ... ... ... ... ...
A quarter of an hour later, in the main hall.
"Hmm~, good wine. This reminds me of the wedding night with Guanyin. After so many years, Guanyin, you are still as beautiful as before, but I am getting older!"
Li Er was obviously drunk. He grabbed Chang Sun's hand and said with some emotion.
"Your Majesty, you are in your prime, how can you say you are old? You drank too much, so I will help you to rest."
The eldest grandson was a little shy at the first half of Li Er's words. She quickly dismissed the maids and chamberlains in the palace, supported Li Er, and comforted her with gentle words.
Li Er waved his hand stubbornly, leaned against Changsun, closed his eyes, and recalled:
"No, I'm not drunk. Alas, it was better then. I am still very close to my eldest brother and third brother and talk about everything. I have married a peerless beauty like you, Guanyin, and I feel like there will never be anything like this in the world again. A happier person than me.
At that time, there were no endless memorials to review, and there were no brothers closing the wall or father and son turning against each other.
Although I have become the emperor now, I am not happy. Maid Guanyin, do you know? Every time I dream back at midnight, I will be frightened out of my sleep by the bloody head and angry eyes of my eldest brother and third brother.
Is this God's punishment for killing my brother and imprisoning my father? Do you want me to live in peace for the rest of my life? Maid Guanyin, did I really do something wrong? "
The iron-blooded emperor of a generation actually shed a line of tears from the corner of his eyes at this moment. Empress Changsun held Li Er in her arms with distress.
She knew that although Li Er eventually won the Xuanwu Gate Incident, the fact that he killed his brother and imprisoned his father was still a pain that could never be overcome in Li Er's heart. At this moment, Li Er was just using alcohol to vent the long-suppressed feelings in his heart. Just painful.
"Erlang, this is not your fault, it is not your fault. If you didn't fight back at that time, our family would probably end up in the same tragedy. No matter what happens, I and Chengqian Qingque will stand by Erlang's side."
Changsun gently stroked Li Er's cheek and said softly.
Li Er finally calmed down. After a while, his breathing gradually became even. Changsun thought he had fallen asleep, so he stood up and prepared to call the palace maid to come in and lift Li Er to the bed.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Changsun stood up, Li Er pressed her down hard, rested his head in her arms, and smelled the fragrance of her soft parts, Li Er began to act dishonest under the influence of alcohol.
"Erlang, no, it's still daytime."
"Hmm~, what are you afraid of?"
"No~, Erlang, you should go and rest."
"Hey, I just happened to be resting with Guanyin!"
... ... ... ... ... ... ..
(Fifty thousand words are omitted here, please make up your own mind. The number of words in the novel will be automatically increased by fifty thousand.)
Fortunately, Li Chengqian wisely left first, otherwise staying here would not be as simple as being fed dog food, and he would probably have to watch a live prostitution that he shouldn't watch.
Li Zexuan sent Li Erwen to the countryside and the immortal drunk. It was originally meant to please him, but he didn't expect it to develop into this. I wonder if this is considered a "bad thing" done out of good intentions
