This is actually wine mixed with water!
Zhang Chen was originally angry and believed that Zhang Shou and Lu Sanlang had colluded in advance, but when he calculated the time again, he felt something was wrong. Lu Sanlang hurriedly came out of the bridal chamber to thank the Crown Prince for the gift. It can be said that not long after he came out of the bridal chamber, the little fat man followed him. The descendants have been entertaining guests, so where did they have time to discuss with Zhang Shou
And the Fourth Prince certainly didn't reveal his affair with him at the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't have come to him alone and carefully accepted the paper ball from him. Moreover, if the Fourth Prince had told Zhang Shou earlier that he would lead people to block the new house of Fatty Lu, how could Zhang Shou agree so readily? He would have scolded him to death, right
Realizing that the wine was not from the Lu family, Zhang Chen couldn't help but look up at the two insignificant guests who he thought were just here to eat and drink. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at them, but when he did, he almost popped his eyes out.
The three people who were sitting there just when he came in just now disappeared in just a moment! Even though he was brave and sure that it was not a mountain spirit or a ghost, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling at this moment, and accidentally knocked over a plate. Just as he was trying to pick it up in a panic, he heard a crisp bang.
Uh, it was smashed after all... No!
Just as this thought came to mind, Zhang Chen heard another bang. At this time, his mind had completely cleared up. He accidentally smashed the plate. This was the second sound. The previous one was not his doing!
So, he was bending over to check the fallen plate and soon found that not far from his feet, under the same table, there was a broken spoon. Obviously, it was not him who dropped it. Realizing that someone might be warning him, he slowly stood up and saw that he was the only one in the yard, so he laughed drunkenly.
"Do you think I'm the god of plague? Why are you walking so fast? What have I done to anyone? I just scolded Zheng Yan for causing trouble and got beaten up! He was punished with twenty rods, and he can kneel down and copy some books and he'll be fine. How can it be so easy? Zhu Ying dared to block the gate of the Imperial Household Department. As a prince, shouldn't he go to Chu Kuan to ask for clarification?"
He slapped the table hard again, and then gulped down two more mouthfuls of wine, but this unpalatable thing made him grimace. The only thing he was thankful for was that the wine had been warmed up just now, and there was still some heat. There was a mat shed in the yard, and there was a charcoal fire underneath. The weather had finally been a little warm in the past few days. Otherwise, if he drank like this, he would have a stomachache when he got home.
But just thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a little fortunate that the Fourth Prince didn't pretend to be drunk. He already felt that this watery wine was unpalatable, let alone the Fourth Prince? Even if he drank a bellyful of water, it would still taste bad!
As he was thinking this, he stood up unsteadily, looking around, and seemed to be still talking about wine, when he suddenly saw a figure flashing by the door. He was already alert and walked to the table opposite. Seeing that wine was warming on a small stove, he casually took a porcelain bowl and poured another bowl. This time, as soon as the wine entered his mouth, he was caught off guard and choked again.
