Chapter 19 Wine as Beauty

Wen Jiyao greeted the palace door, caught a glimpse of the fluttering red dress, and secretly took a breath. He didn't expect that the emperor came out of the palace with him. With restrained clothes, he meticulously saluted: "I want to see the emperor!"

The emperor shook his head slightly and waved his hand to avoid the gift.

Yin Pianxuan smiled lightly and said, "I have seen General Wen!"

He nodded and smiled as a return gift. He covered his head and coughed softly. He was angry and asked respectfully, "Your Majesty, do you have a carriage?"

The emperor raised his thick eyebrows and looked at her inquiringly: "Piaoxuan, what do you think?"

Her eyes blinked twice, and she smiled and said, "If the emperor is up to Xiangyun Tower, you might as well prepare a carriage. If the emperor wants to see the prosperity of Zhuque Street, it's better to walk lightly!"

"Prosperous and prosperous? OK, walk lightly, walk lightly!"

Zhuque Street, the streets are spacious, the shops are numerous, the cars and horses are sparkling, the pedestrians are flowing endlessly, and the light yellow sunset is spreading lightly, adding a little poetry and calmness to the magnificent street in front of you. The casual bodyguard followed the emperor not far away, while Wen Jiyao protected him closely. The emperor went into several villages and looked at them. From time to time, he listened to Yin Pianxuan's words. Wen Jiyao didn't listen to a word, but when he saw the emperor's smile after leaving the palace, she thought to herself that she did grasp the emperor's preferences.

When he was a little tired, the three of them slowly walked into Xiangyun Tower. Lin Xianyan greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Guest, upstairs, please!"

Yin Piao glanced at the emperor, winked at her, and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper, put on a pot of good wine!"

Lin Xianyan's head should be.

Picking up the steps, the silk bamboo on the second floor is lingering, the fragrance is fragrant, the candles are brilliant, and the candles are extremely elegant. The beautiful maidservant welcomed the three into the purple bamboo forest and waited for the three to sit down. After a while, Lin Xianyan smiled and took the jar of wine into the purple bamboo forest. The mud was still there, and the fragrance of the wine had drifted away. An irresistable elegant and mellow taste lingered like silk bamboo. Before the wine entered his throat, he was a little drunk.

The emperor closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and praised: "Good wine, good wine--"

"The guest is good at seeing. This is the fragrance of jade lips that have been treasured for ten years, and ordinary people can't ask for it." Lin Xianyan said lightly.

"Oh?! Isn't that lucky?"

"Beautiful jade is given to beautiful women, swords are given to heroes, calligraphy and paintings are given to Yashi, and wine is given to luxury guests. I hope the guests will not dislike it!"

The emperor smiled cheerfully: "Xiangyunlou really lives up to its reputation, and even the boss's wife is so knowledgeable!"

Lin Xianyan tilted her head slightly, lifted the wine plug, and properly poured wine for the three of them. Waiting for the maidservant to serve the wine and dishes. She served the dishes one by one in person, elegant, calm and comfortable. Seeing the emperor picking up the wine glass, she smiled and said back: "Slow time!"

He looked at the wine in the glass, which was crystal clear, clear and transparent, without any impurities. He took a sip. The fragrance of the wine seemed to dance elegantly on the tip of his tongue. After swallowing it, the lingering fragrance in his mouth did not diminish. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the irresistible sweetness and satisfaction: "Mellow and round taste, rich aroma and elegant and delicate aftertaste, The jade liquid agar on it is nothing more than that!"

"Only a real gentleman can taste real wine!" She gave a timely compliment, and a proud smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

The emperor nodded, picked up a piece of mushroom, chewed a few times, and nodded frequently. Seeing that Wen Jiyao and Yin Pian were motionless, he waved his hand: "There is no outsider here. You two don't need to be careful. It's not good to sweep away my pleasure!"

The two answered in a low voice. Yin Pian's right wrist was injured, and it was inconvenient to hire someone to wait on, so they had to use their left hand and do it smoothly. Wen Jiyao took a sip of wine and felt that his mouth was fragrant and rich, and the taste was sweet. He was a regular guest of Xiangyunlou, but he had never tasted such a good wine. He was a little embarrassed. He secretly thought that the big shopkeeper knew that the emperor was the emperor, so he invited such a good wine?

"Excimal wine, all kinds of delicacies!" After two cups, the emperor was very happy and inevitably praised again.

Yin Pian's lips raised slightly: "Your Majesty, Xiangyun Tower is known as the first floor in Kyoto, and it is a real material!"

"First floor?! It really deserves such a title!" The emperor laughed and unconsciously drank another glass of wine: "A good wine for luxury guests? This wine comes in a very stylish way, with some elegance, some wantonness, a trace of sweetness, and a trace of mystery. Wine is like a beautiful woman, and drinking wine is like a pleasant beauty.

When he saw the bottom of a jar of wine, he still couldn't enjoy it. He let Yin Pianxuan call Lin Xianyan and ordered, "Big shopkeeper, you offer me a price and bring me two pots of good wine. I want to take it back to the palace - take it back to the house and savor it carefully."

"Gest officer, look at what you said. Today, I will give you two jars of wine to the guest officer, and I will invite you to take more photos in the future!"

The emperor nodded with a smile: "Okay, since the big shopkeeper said so, I won't be polite!"

Xia Houchen narrowed his eyes and took a sip of wine lazily: "How can General Wen be so elegant today that he visited late at night?"

He sat down on the opposite side with an inexplicable smile. The tip of his tongue still had an aftertaste of wine. He raised his eyebrows and raised his eyebrows: "Lord, you might as well guess where I went?"

Xia Houchen sneered and was completely uninterested in his where to go.

"The prince is not interested?! What a pity, luxury guests, beauties, wine--" He sighed and said to himself, "The wine of Xiangyunlou is amazing. Now my heart is extremely smooth and fluttering!"

Seeing his handsome frown, Wen Jiyao raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "I have some small news. I wonder if the prince is interested?"

He snorted: "General Suiwen is happy!"

The more he knew his character, the more he wanted to know. Wen Jiyao smiled and paused for a long time until a sharp gaze projected. Fang Qing coughed and said leisurely, "The emperor wants to order the second son of the Prime Minister's mansion to choose his own good spouse!"

"Where did you hear the news?" How could my father interfere in Yin Xiaoting's marriage? Is it related to her?

"It wouldn't be surprising if you knew why I went to Xiangyun Tower tonight!" He looked at Xiahouchen's locked eyebrows happily: "I didn't expect that Princess Yu's words could coax the emperor to agree to the second son!" It turns out that luxury guests can't refuse beautiful women and wine!"

"Did General Wen come specially to inform me of this?"

Wen Jiyao shook his head and smiled a little thief: "No, for the sake of being friends with Prince Yu for more than ten years, I specially want to remind Prince Yu to say: The emperor's eyes are a little different!"

"What do you mean?"

"Does the prince not understand such a simple sentence? Although the princess is so vulgar in the eyes of the prince, she is charming in the eyes of others! You don't understand the emperor's temperament. If the prince continues to stay with the princess in the palace, it is inevitable that the emperor has some different feelings about her. Once the emperor knows that the prince and she are not husband and wife, it is not surprising that the emperor will think about it!" The emperor's heart was unfathomable. His eyes were indeed very different, but it was not like the feelings of men and women, which made him unpredictable for a while.

The wine glass in his hand trembled slightly. For a long time, he said coldly, "She is already my woman!"

When Wen Jiyao choked and blinked his eyes to confirm that he had not heard anything wrong, he laughed and said loudly, "General, I won't disturb the prince to taste the wine under the moon. I'm going to leave!"

Xia Houchen stared at his narrow face fiercely and said coldly, "I'm not far away!"

His face was filled with a successful smile and shook his head frequently: Xiahouchen, if you fall down, I'm afraid there is no way to save it!

The emperor glanced at her, shook his head and smiled, "Does the queen want to talk to me about Yin Piaoxuan?"

Yan Ruzhu pulled the corners of his mouth: "Your Majesty is wise!"

He smiled, put his hands on his back, and paced to the window: "Don't worry, the queen. Chen'er will come to pick her up in three days. Let Yin Piaoxuan stay in the palace for the time being! Queen, don't bother!"

"Your Majesty--" She wanted to speak but stopped. She knew the meaning of his words, so that she should not be embarrassed, but how could she give up easily?

As if he had seen through her heart, the emperor sighed: "When playing chess, you can see the overall situation, not the way of each chess piece. Do everything as I say, and he will know it one day.

She paused for a moment, saluted and said secretly: Yin Pianxuan, I will spare you once. If I can't get involved with the prince again, I will never be soft!
