One touch and one silence

Last time with the pastries, he happened to be out on errands.

The prince saw the eunuch take a sip and looked at the man who suddenly looked very happy. Half an incense stick of time passed and nothing happened to him, so the guy happily poured the prince a glass.

The prince looked at his expression, full of confusion. What could have happened that could make this man, who usually had a stern face and acted as if others owed him hundreds of taels of silver and looked as if he was facing a great enemy all day long, appear unusually happy today?

Is this wine so powerful? The prince looked up, puzzled.

"My Lord, don't blame me for being so cautious. You will be in that position in the future, and many people are watching you!"

Speaking of this, Manager Li smiled like a flower, and he was so happy.

“However, I didn’t expect that the Seventh Prince was so amazing. Even after arriving there, he still remembered your kindness. It shows that he knows how to be grateful. No wonder the Prince would risk his own life and jump into the water to save her.

"This wine is really good! I have never tasted such a special wine in my life. If you weren't staring at me, I would have shamelessly drunk a few more sips."

Steward Li served the prince wine with a smile, and his tone was full of praise for Nanzhi.

He had met the Seventh Prince once last time. He had never expected that, after being tortured since childhood, he still had a kind heart now.

It can be seen that he is a person with no bad intentions.

The prince was happy to hear Butler Li praising Xiao Qi, and he also knew that Xiao Qi was always very particular about what he put into his mouth, so he decided to try it himself.

The prince was in a rare good mood. He waved his hand and said, "If you like it, I will give you a jar!"

After saying that, he picked up the glass and took a look. He saw that the wine in the glass was crystal clear. If it wasn't for the strong smell of alcohol, he would probably have thought it was water.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Butler Li was so happy that he knelt on the ground to express his gratitude, as if he was a child who had received his favorite toy.

Nanchen put the wine glass in his hand under his nose and sniffed it. The strong aroma of wine became even stronger, making him a little intoxicated.

The prince raised his hand and slowly put the cup in his hand into his mouth and drank it all in one gulp. The spicy taste instantly rushed straight to the top of his head, but he inexplicably felt a mellow, elegant, sweet and soft taste.

The wine flowed down his throat, through his intestines, and into his stomach, and his whole body suddenly became warm.

This shocked him and the first thing that came to his mind was, if it was used to keep soldiers warm in winter, would it be very effective?

Then they won't have to fear the severe cold anymore. Soldiers who go out on patrol in winter can carry some with them and drink a sip when they can't bear it. That way, no soldiers will be frozen to death, right?

He never expected that this wine would have such a strong aftertaste, which was something he had never tasted before, and it tasted amazing.

After drinking this wine, I realized that what I drank before could not be called wine.

The prince was a filial son, and he immediately ordered Li Zongguan: "Send ten catties to my father, three catties to my grandfather, and two catties to my mother."

"Let them also taste the wine Xiaoqi sent. Let them all know that Xiaoqi is a filial child."

After the prince finished speaking, he poured himself another glass and drank it leisurely.

"Good wine! Good wine!"

Nanchen was very grateful at this moment that he had been soft-hearted and saved Xiaoqi.

Thinking of that day, Nanchen's eyes became somewhat deep. He was really upset at that time and wanted to find a place to be quiet.

Unexpectedly, I saw Xiao Qi being knocked into the river by a little eunuch.

He was standing in the dark and saw clearly that the eunuch suddenly quickened his pace and rushed over after seeing Xiao Qi.

He originally didn't want to get involved in such trivial matters and turned around to leave, but he didn't expect that when Xiao Qi fell into the water, he didn't even struggle and sank straight down.

Only then did he suddenly become interested and rescued the person out of curiosity.

Now he is extremely grateful that he saved the child.

You see, Xiaoqi is different from his other brothers and sisters after all. He is a grateful little guy.

Just as the prince was leisurely savoring the fine wine in his hand, there was a noisy sound coming from outside the door.

Nanchen raised his eyebrows, and his face showed a little displeasure as his good mood was disturbed.

Just as he was about to get angry, he saw who was so bold as to make a noise in front of his study door.

Manager Li came in quickly, wiping his sweat, with a sad face, as if he was about to cry.

"Your Highness, this slave is guilty!"

Before Manager Li could finish his words, he was interrupted by someone outside.

"Hahaha... What's the point of talking about guilt or innocence? It's such a small matter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely not blame you."

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"

The leading few people bowed and saluted towards the prince. It was not that they did not kneel, but that they were all important officials of the court, and some of them were old. The emperor had specially allowed them not to perform such a grand ceremony on normal days, so the prince naturally had to respect them.

The man who was speaking walked into the palace with an arrogant look on his face.

As soon as the prince saw the person coming, he immediately stood up to greet him.

"Meet the Imperial Uncle!"

"Greetings, everyone! I wonder how you all have time to come to the East Palace today?"

It's no wonder that he was curious. In the past, these ministers never had anything to do with the East Palace unless necessary.

"Get up! Watch the tea!"

Nanchen waved to Steward Li who was kneeling on the ground and asked him to serve tea to the prince and the other gentlemen.

"Hahahaha... the reason we came to disturb you today is actually for personal matters."

"I wonder if Your Highness has any more wine. We are really greedy. We were a step late just now. The wine you gave to Your Majesty was snatched away by those old men, and Your Majesty only has one jar left." If it weren't for his status as an emperor, he would probably have really snatched it.

"Can you give some to my uncle?"

"We are so greedy. The aroma has made the wine bug in our stomachs come out."

The prince looked at Eunuch Li beside him in confusion, wondering how they knew that. Eunuch Li then told him that he had just gone to the imperial study to deliver wine.

"When I went to the Imperial Study to deliver wine to His Majesty, several officials were there. His Majesty thought that it was getting late, so he asked the ministers to go back first. When he saw them leaving, he opened a jar and took a sip. Who knew that the chief steward beside His Majesty had just opened the lid, and the officials stopped in their tracks."

"They all begged Your Majesty to give them a cup to try. Your Majesty had no choice but to agree. But after they finished drinking, they stayed there and refused to leave. They insisted that Your Majesty give them some. Your Majesty had no choice but to give some to a few older ministers. These ministers did not get any, so they followed me to the East Palace."

Manager Li felt guilty when he said this. He should not have said something more, saying that this wine should only exist in heaven.

This led to the current situation.

"My lord, sharing happiness with others is worse than enjoying it alone. After all, I can be considered your teacher. That... considering my careful teaching to you over the years, I am worthy of a bottle of wine!" After he said this, his face flushed with embarrassment.

The person who spoke was an adult with a mustache. He was about forty years old, thin, but very dignified, with a very straight back. He looked very learned and should have never done such a thing as asking for things from others.

"What are you talking about, little brat? I should be the first one to go first. After all, I am still your boss."

The one who said this was a little old man with silver hair and high spirits. He spoke bluntly and directly retorted. This man was the old master of wine. He had just spoken slowly in the imperial study, so he had no place to speak. This time, he must not be slow.

"Old Master, you can't say that!" Censor Chen was about to refute.

"Imperial Censor Chen, your son..." The old chief priest narrowed his eyes with a fierce look.

It seemed as if he would bite anyone who tried to snatch it from him.

Censor Chen wanted to say something else and muttered a few times, but he was threatened by the old chief priest and could not utter a word.

At this moment, Censor Chen felt inexplicably angry and suddenly wanted to go back and give his grandson a good beating. He had even thought of how to beat him.

Damn it! He lost all the good wine he had just gotten.

"My uncle hasn't spoken yet?"

"Xiao Chen'er, it's not too much to show your filial piety to your great uncle!"

Although he said it lightly, his eyes were wide open.

"Prince Yulin, you..." Lord Jijiu, Censor Chen and others were irritated by this old guy, Prince Yulin.

If we talk about anyone who is more shameless, we have to say this one, especially after he remarried, he became even more shameless.

"What's wrong with me?" Prince Yulin looked so proud that he wished someone could beat him up. For the first time, he felt the benefits of being a royal family member with a high seniority.

Several people silently comforted themselves in their hearts that this man was a prince, and a prince of a higher generation, so they could not beat him. They could not beat him.

Nanchen was stunned by this scene.

No, these people used to be in all kinds of trouble.

Now, just for the sake of wine, they are almost at the point of fighting? The prince saw these old ministers looking at him with covetous eyes, as if they were going to stay here and not leave unless he gave them what they wanted. This was really a headache.

In desperation, the prince said, "Li Zongguan, go and get the remaining wine and give it to the ministers."
