Chapter 2440 My Heart

But the smiling faces of the three of them did not immediately disappear, instead they said with a stiff smile: "The faces are a little cramped."

How long have you been laughing?

All the guests went in, and Man Bao went to entertain them. It was necessary to toast a glass of wine at a table, and it might be poured by others, so Man Bao whispered to Zhou Li who was carrying the plate: "Add some plain water, eh? , half a pot of wine and half a pot of boiled water, it is best to add some honey or boiled brown sugar water into it.”

Zhou Lizhong: "...Little aunt, it's just mixed with water, why do you need to add honey and brown sugar water?"

"You're stupid, add half a pot of water, how's the wine's color faded? Adding a little honey or brown sugar water looks real, and it's always a little sweet, so it won't be too unpleasant to drink."

Bai Shan instructed in a low voice, "Don't go to the big kitchen, go to Sister-in-law Zhou, look at the three of us, prepare two more pots, otherwise it won't be enough."

Zhou Lizhong: "Little uncle, or some of our brothers will drink for you."

Lixue and Ligu can now drink.

Man Bao shook his head and refused, "Forget it, you are drinking at such a young age. Be careful, it will be bad for your liver in the future. Let's do it ourselves, um, add more brown sugar, divide a pot of wine into three pots, and add water and sugar water to the rest.

Zhou Lizhong: ...Well, in just a while, half a jug of wine becomes a third of a jug of wine.

Zhou Lizhong looked at so many guests, turned around and went down with a plate. Man Bao and the three of them first talked to the steady and veteran Mr. Wei and others.

Sure enough, Mr. Wei and the others did not persuade them to drink, but asked them to eat more vegetables, and they began to encourage them after eating a chopstick of vegetables.

Anyway, it is the emperor's grace, you all have to study hard and work hard to repay His Majesty.

Wei Zhihan, who was born in the Han family, was deeply touched by this, and he took Man Bao's hand and said, "With a status like you and me, being able to achieve today's achievements is of course talented, but it is also indispensable for Bole to know horses, otherwise , No matter how much talent we have, it is useless."

The elders on the side looked at Wei Zhi in surprise, and saw that his face was thin and red. Only then did they realize that he had drunk several glasses of wine at some point, but was just drunk?

Being drunk doesn't mean that he is drunk, but he has a lot of feelings. He and Zhou Man's family background is similar, um, in fact, there is still a difference.

Wei Zhi belonged to the Han family, while Zhou Man was a commoner who was not even comparable to the Han family. Before her, none of the Zhou family could read or write.

Seeing that the Zhou family was full of friends at this time, Wei Zhi, who had been to the Zhou family for a drink several times, had personally experienced several changes and touched the most secret things in his heart.

He took Manbao's hand and said with red eyes, "Because of the kindness of the king, I often worry that I am not worthy of this kindness, so I must always wake up myself and do what I should do for my ministers and thousands of miles. Sir, you will do the same in the future."

"Your Majesty is determined to be a wise king, so all we do is to fulfill His Majesty's great wish and help him become a wise king of the ages. For this reason, we will not hesitate to lose our lives."

Man Bao opened his mouth wide.

Bai Shan and Bai Erlang were also stunned when they heard it, so you often persuade Your Majesty that you are jumping on the emperor's feet in anger to repay your kindness?

Well, when you think about it this way, it's really all to prevent the emperor from making mistakes, in order to make him a Mingjun.

For a while, not only Man Bao three people, but also the elders sitting at the table looked at Master Wei with surprise.

Seeing that Mr. Wei was so jealous that Man Bao was about to cry, he immediately stretched out his hand to support him and said, "Master Wei, you are drunk, why don't you go to the guest room to take a nap first? You have to go to the office in the afternoon."

Man Bao looked at Bai Shan and Bai Erlang.

The two returned to their senses, and immediately stepped forward to support the person, and helped Mr. Wei to rest.

Lord Tang turned his head to look at Zhao Guogong, "What are you doing with Lord Wei's wine when you have nothing to do?"

Zhao Guogong: ... No one paid attention, how did he see it?

Zhao Guogong coughed lightly, and his eyes looked a little erratically into the distance.

In the distance, the emperor was riding a horse in the West Inner Garden.

Yin Li rode his horse and led the guards behind him. He reminded the emperor in front, "Your Majesty, there is a rabbit in front of the left."

The emperor saw it, so he took a bow and shot an arrow. The arrow rubbed the rabbit's neck and stuck it on the ground.

The emperor was very happy, he laughed and said, "My archery has not declined."

Yin Li nodded with admiration.

The emperor regretted, "It's a pity that you are in filial piety, otherwise you can let go of hunting today."

However, the emperor was very happy to be able to come to the horse race today. While Wei Zhi was not in the palace, the other imperial censors and ministers were also not there. The emperor was very excited to run in the Xi Neiyuan, and all the prey he saw wiped his neck and stuck it in the On the ground, he occasionally miscalculated and accidentally injured animals big and small. He also quickly had people grab them and get medicine.

The emperor decided to go back in the evening and offer incense to the Bodhisattva and the Empress Dowager.

The emperor ran for an hour in the West Inner Garden, and his muscles and bones loosened. He happily whispered to Yin Li, "I don't know if Zhao Guogong got people drunk."

Yin Li: "...It shouldn't be easy."

You can wake up even if you're drunk. With Master Wei's self-control, I'm afraid you won't be late, so...

"Your Majesty, it's almost time, let's go back."

The emperor regretfully handed the bow to the guard behind him, nodded and said, "Tell your subordinates that today's affairs are not allowed to be shared."

"Yes."

The emperor happily returned to the palace, and as soon as he returned to the Taiji Hall, he became serious.

And Mr. Wei at Zhou Man's house also woke up early. Not only was he awake, but his alcohol was almost gone. Zhou Man's sobering soup was good, except that it was a bit unpleasant, the effect was still good.

Wei Zhi was very awake and asked his long attendant, "The front is scattered?"

Long Sui should bend over, "Except for some adults who don't need to be on duty, everyone else has walked almost."

The old Tang adults and the censors of the censors are all here, and even Wei Zhi is here, who would dare to miss work?

Therefore, except for some officials who have been on leave and those who do not need to be on duty, only some relatives and friends of the Bai and Zhou families are left, and all the others have returned.

They also have to go back to sober up so that they can go back to the yamen to work.

Wei Zhi nodded with satisfaction, but he didn't leave. After getting dressed, he went for a walk around the place where the guests were being entertained, making sure that no fish slipped through the net. The rear moved to the front with the farewell of Bai Shan and the others.

Lord Tang was sitting in front with a group of censors.

Wei Zhi was surprised and asked, "Why is Lord Tang still here and not going to the yamen?"

Seeing him, Mr. Tang got up with some regret and said, "I have already started work, okay, it's time to return to the yamen."

He turned his head and said to his subordinates, "Okay, let's walk around the gates of each of you to see who didn't go back to work on time, and also note down those who were drunk."

The censors responded in unison, and then dispersed, as if it was not them who pushed the glass with others at the dinner table just now.

The Censor, as expected, turned his face ruthlessly.

Wei Zhi turned his head blankly and said to the three of Bai Shan, "There's no need to send them far, I'll be leaving now."

See you tomorrow
