Chapter 538 The Situation of Nanping

"Is this wine really brewed by Lord Wu?" An official asked with a look of shock and disbelief on his face.

"How can you talk like that! Can Lord Wu's words be false?" Li Ziyang said dissatisfiedly.

"It doesn't matter." Wu Fan smiled and waved his hand and said, "You all know that I come from a remote place in our Yanfeng country. I have a low position and don't have much to do. I am not like you gentlemen who can share the worries of His Majesty and handle political affairs. Therefore, I usually like to tinker with some things. This wine and tea are made by me. If the taste is not good, I hope you will forgive me."

"Lord Wu is modest. This wine is definitely the best wine I have ever drunk in my life!"

"Yes! The fragrance of this wine is far beyond the comparison of other wines. Lord Wu can actually brew such a fine wine. He is really talented."

"Lord Wu is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also in brewing wine!"

Everyone praised Wu Fan.

"As long as you like it." Wu Fan said with a smile.

Several people, including Li Ziyang, said they liked it very much and praised Wu Fan.

"What a pity." After tasting the wine, one of the ministers said with regret.

"What a pity?" asked another.

"It's a pity that we can only drink such good wine today. I'm afraid we won't have the chance to drink it again after Lord Li leaves the imperial capital." The minister couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.

When the others heard it, they immediately agreed, even Li Ziyang. After drinking this wine, drinking other wines was like horse urine. Just thinking about it, he felt that he could no longer drink other wines.

The two bottles of "Cloud Summit" in front of him were given by Wu Fan and brewed by Wu Fan privately. He couldn't ask Wu Fan for wine often in the future. That would be too inappropriate.

Thinking of this, Li Ziyang quickly put away the two remaining bottles of wine.

"Lord Li, what are you doing?" Someone asked in confusion.

"This wine was given to me by Lord Wu. There are only two bottles. After drinking, there will be no more. I want to keep it for slow tasting. You can drink something else." Li Ziyang said bluntly.

"Don't, Lord Li, I just drank less than a cup."

"Lord Li, you can't do this. After drinking this wine, how can you drink other wine?"

"Lord Li, it's too much, too much."

Several officials were anxious. Not being able to drink in the future is a matter for the future. There is still wine here today, but they can't drink it. That's too much torture for them.

"Don't worry, lords." Wu Fan saw that the people in front of him were going to fight because of "Cloud Summit", and immediately smiled and said: "If you like it, I will have someone send some to you later."

"How can I be embarrassed."

"Oh, Lord Wu is so polite, I will be disrespectful to refuse."

"Thank you, Lord Wu."

Several people stopped snatching and said to Wu Fan with a happy face.

"I want it too!" Li Ziyang said hurriedly.

"No problem." Wu Fan responded directly.

Li Ziyang smiled with satisfaction.

"I feel relieved to see that several adults like this wine." Wu Fan suddenly said.

"What are you relieved about?"

"I bought a shop in Yanyang City a few days ago and planned to sell some things." Wu Fan said: "This Yunzhiding is one of them. Since several adults like it, it seems that this wine is still good, and others should like it too."

"Master Wu, have you opened a grocery store?"

"Does the store sell this wine?"

"When will Master Wu's store open? I will definitely go there. Apart from other things, I will definitely buy a lot of this wine."

"Yes, me too!"

When the officials present heard what Wu Fan said, they immediately became interested.

Yanfeng Kingdom does not prohibit ministers and nobles from doing business, so many of these ministers in the imperial capital have their own shops at home, selling some things, or doing other businesses. As long as it is not illegal, the old emperor does not care, so it is okay for Wu Fan to open a grocery store.

"The store will open tomorrow. It's a grocery store, and this wine is one of the products." Wu Fan said.

"Tomorrow? I will definitely go tomorrow!"

"I will go with you."

"Let's go together, let's go together!"

Several officials said hurriedly. Whether they wanted to buy this wine or to show their support to Wu Fan, since they knew about the opening day, they must go.

"Sir Wu, this is your fault. Why didn't you tell us in advance that your store was opening? If we hadn't talked about this topic, we wouldn't know." Li Ziyang said.

"It's just a small store opening, it's not a big deal." Wu Fan waved his hand.

"How can this be." Li Ziyang said, "Sir Wu is too polite."

"It's my fault, my fault, I will punish myself with a glass of wine." Wu Fan said with a smile.

The atmosphere at the table was very good, and Wu Fan's goal had been achieved. With these people helping to promote it, coupled with the excellent quality of his "Cloud Summit", even if the store is located in a remote location, I believe it will continue to do business.

"Oh, I don't know how His Majesty is doing. Since he was assassinated, His Majesty has not summoned the ministers. It's worrying." Everyone was chatting casually, and the topic gradually turned to the old emperor. This was not surprising. After all, the assassination of the old emperor was the biggest event in Yanfeng Kingdom recently. Whenever there was a gathering, people would talk about this matter more or less at the wine table.

When Wu Fan heard someone talking about this topic, his expression was shocked. This was related to the second purpose of his coming here.

"Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune, and nothing will happen to him." Another official said.

"Yes, your Majesty will definitely be safe and sound." The official next to him echoed: "But, speaking of this, it is thanks to Lord Wu. If it were not for Lord Wu's timely action, the consequences would be disastrous."

"Yes, yes, thanks to Lord Wu. Lord Wu's action saved your majesty and also saved our Yanfeng Kingdom."

"This is what I should do as a minister." Wu Fan waved his hand and said modestly: "It's just that the assassin is the third princess of Nanping Kingdom, and Nanping Kingdom has always been on good terms with our Dalu Dynasty. This assassination is a bit unreasonable and a bit strange. Could it be that Nanping Kingdom is not afraid of our Yanfeng Kingdom's revenge?"

Although Wu Fan had learned the reason from Princess Wu Ya, he naturally had to pretend not to know at this time.

"I do know some news." Li Ziyang said, "Something happened to the royal family of Nanping. Their royal family was controlled by Shuiyue Kingdom, and they used this to coerce Princess Wu Ya to assassinate our emperor."

"So that's how it is. That makes sense." Wu Fan pretended to be enlightened and said, "I don't know what the specific situation is over there."

"The fourth prince of Nanping has ascended the throne!" Li Ziyang said indifferently, "This news was just passed back this morning."

"Huh? What's going on?" Wu Fan asked in surprise. This time his surprise was not pretended, but real.
