emperor cold concubine

Chapter 657 New Year's Eve ([-])
On the top of the moon, the cold air is deep.

Ending with Qi Lang and Ye Qing's finale, an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the hall was completely silent.

Cang Hao lowered his eyes, his picturesque eyebrows were as calm as snow, he casually smiled and said: "Changting, order someone to change the wine."

Change wine?

Everyone was obviously puzzled, with a little surprise on their faces.

After a round of drinking, all the officials, big and small, had already taken turns, but the expression of His Majesty the Emperor in the hall did not change at all.

When Xie Changting bowed to accept the decree, he suddenly had a realization in his heart, it seemed that this round, he had unknowingly lost the upper hand.

The four inner eunuchs directly brought up several sealed wine jars. Although the wine jars were tightly sealed, just by smelling the mellow and strong aroma of the wine, one knew that it must be a good wine that had been preserved for many years.

Xie Changting smelled the clear aroma of the wine, turned his head slightly, and smiled faintly, "The lotus lady, which has been stored in the cellar for 20 years, is not the best wine, but it is a treasure that many people can't put it down... The master is really willing."

Cang Hao raised his eyes lightly, "How do you know that this lotus brew is my king's treasure?"

Xie Changting lowered his eyes and smiled, "Although it seems unbelievable considering the age of the master, Chang Ting has spent a lot of effort and energy to send people to check the background of the master before he stepped into the rivers and lakes."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall froze for an instant.

Except for a small number of people who didn't know why, many people looked at him in surprise, with complex meanings in their eyes.

"So?" Cang Hao smiled lightly, "What's the result of your investigation?"

"Nothing." Xie Changting sighed softly, "So, it is just Changting's own intuition that the lotus brewing for the past 20 years is the owner's treasure."

Everyone's suspicious eyes disappeared instantly, and the corners of their mouths twitched, and they glanced strangely at the prime minister, who was once astonishingly talented and now frightening the court. After a while, each of them lowered their eyes, drinking wine, drinking tea, drinking tea, Those who eat dim sum eat dim sum, each busy.

The round is over, and the new round will still start with Xie Changting. However, the white jade wine glass is probably too small to see any obvious effect. Under the suggestion of the enthusiastic Qi Lang, the exquisite wine glass was also replaced with blue and white porcelain. Teacup.

A cup of wine in a teacup is ample, if you don't hold a lot of alcohol, if you drink like this, you will get drunk immediately.

Shu He frowned slightly, obviously disapproving, stood up abruptly, took a few steps forward, and said coldly: "Qi Lang is childish, is the Prime Minister also childish? With such a weight, everyone takes turns, and it is enough There are more than 70 glasses, not to mention the wine that hurts the body, even if it is just water, the stomach can't bear more than 70 glasses, right?"

Regarding Shu He's anger, Xie Changting did not refute, but just gave him a casual look. Shu He didn't know if it was his illusion, but Xie Changting always felt that Xie Changting was looking at him with pitiful and contemptuous eyes.

Like watching an idiot.

This made Shu He feel depressed, but he stared at him not to be outdone, resolutely protesting his apparently irrational behavior this time.

"Shuhe." Su Mo called him lazily, "It's true that no one can bear to drink seventy glasses of water in a row, but if it's wine, how do you know that your master doesn't have the capacity to drink? Besides, seventy glasses of water You don't necessarily have to drink all the cups, if you drink the seventh and eighth cups halfway, your master will be drunk, so you don't need to drink the rest?"

Shu He frowned and thought, and felt that what Su Mo said seemed to make sense.

However, there are more than 70 cups, Shu He glared bitterly at Qi Lang who proposed to change cups, secretly thinking that this guy must have no good intentions.

Qi Lang returned his note without pain, lowered his head, and went to show his affection with Ye Yeqing.

The effect of changing the wine and changing the glass is particularly remarkable. Of course, it does not refer to Cang Hao, but for most people who are not strong enough to drink, this seems to be a big test.

Mixing the two kinds of wine is already easy to get intoxicated, not to mention Yun Yang and others who are not good at drinking, of course they can't survive the second round.

After taking just a sip of a glass of wine, his little face turned red, he swayed from side to side, and squinted his eyes unsteadily, "Huh? Why, why are there two... Ninth brother, and... two more ...Well, the two sister-in-laws..."

Okay, let's start talking nonsense.

Shu He rolled his eyes at Tian, ​​got up and pulled her back to the seat in time, and slowly poured down a cup of hangover tea for her.

Because Yunyang can't make a toast, so Canghao doesn't need to drink the cup, the wine in the cup is still there, when Biyue toasted, she only drank the wine in her own cup, and then went to the steps, stood aside and waited for him The master pours wine.

The sixteen sons stepped forward one by one, and Biyue poured one cup after another. After all, the men in the Jianghu can drink well. After a row of respects, except for the two women Yunyang and Tengyin and Luanzi Yan, no one else showed any respect. What's the difference.

Everyone in the Dongli royal family knows that besides Xie Changting, Luan Ziyan is the best prince in the Dongli royal family. He can govern the country with literature and peace with martial arts. His only weakness is that he is not good at drinking.

But when it was King Feng's turn, it was a bit difficult.

Except for Gong Yang, the six ministers are all weak scholars, no matter how good their drinking capacity is, it is not much better. When Yixiu taught them, he did not exercise this drinking capacity. Thinking about it now, he regretted it too much. I can't help but have the urge to beat my heart and soul.

Cang Yunmu also didn't last two cups, his cheeks were flushed, his eyes were blurred, and he was dragged back to the seat by Sikong Luo staggeringly.

Fortunately, he didn't make any gaffes.

As for Dali Temple Minister Sikong Luo, he raised his wine jug to go out, probably because he knew that he could not drink enough. After saluting in the hall, he said "I respect you first", raised his head, and gurgled like drinking water. A glass of wine was generously drained.

It's a pity that, accompanied by a violent coughing sound, and the subsequent choked tears, this boldness was greatly reduced.

When everyone in the hall saw this, the corners of their mouths twitched violently, and they were speechless for a moment.

Then, he saw the handsome, calm and heroic Dali Temple Minister Sikong, fell to the ground with a "bang", and fell unconscious for an instant.

On the other hand, Cang Hao on the dragon seat in front, with the wine glass resting on his lips, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, watching what happened in the hall with a smile that was not a smile, his eyes were picturesque, calm and refined, still like the exiled immortal who fell into the mortal world, with With the dignity that is always spotless, and the unattainable coldness revealed from the bottom of the eyes.

Su Mo lowered her eyes and took care of her warm sable fur cloak. The corners of her mouth could not help but curl up in joy, she raised her eyes slightly, and teased leisurely in an extremely lazy and charming tone: "Suddenly, I am so looking forward to it. After getting drunk, what interesting things will happen to this Highness...?"
