The Invincible Sixth Prince

In the end, Su Zan and Dan Qu still did not agree to Yun Zheng’s shameless proposal.

There is no way they would agree to that!

If they really had extra food, they would rather burn it than give it to Yun Zheng!

Should we fatten up Yun Zheng so that we can attack them?

Everyone chatted along the way and finally arrived at the government office.

Yun Zheng warmly invited the members of the delegation into the government office. As for their guards, they were definitely not qualified to attend the banquet.

However, Su Zan still left behind twenty guards to lift the boxes off the carriage, and the rest of the guards were arranged by Chen Bu to the post station.

Looking at these boxes, Yun Zheng couldn't help but nod secretly.

Well, at least you still know the etiquette and remember to bring some gifts.

If they don't even bring basic gifts, I'll have to ask them for money for food later.

Inside the office, the banquet had already been prepared.

After everyone sat down according to the order of honor, Su Zan ordered people to carry a few boxes to Yun Zheng, "We have been on this hurried mission and have not prepared any generous gifts for His Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will not despise these small gifts!"

"You are too polite, Grand Chancellor."

Yun Zheng said this with a smile, but he was looking forward to it in his heart.

Su Zan chuckled and winked at the guard.

The guards immediately opened several boxes in front of Yun Zheng.

Several boxes contained woolen products, horn products, scriptures, jewelry, gold and silver.

Yun Zheng saw it, but was speechless.

Apart from gold, silver and jewelry, I feel like everything else is just to make up the numbers.

However, these gold, silver and jewelry are enough to cover their food expenses, so we won’t charge them for food expenses later.

"Thank you, Prime Minister!"

Yun Zheng bowed to Su Zan and ordered people to carry the gifts away. He also told Chen Bu: "The envoys must be hungry after coming from afar. Hurry and have someone serve wine and food!"

"Yes!"

Chen Bu took the order and immediately ordered people to start serving wine and food.

Soon, steaming dishes were served on the table, and the servants came out with fine wine and began to pour wine for everyone.

Their banquet certainly cannot be compared with the banquet in the imperial city, but it is still relatively sumptuous.

Su Zan and his friends were indeed a little hungry after traveling all the way here.

Seeing these sumptuous foods and smelling the fragrant wine in the glass, many people want to feast on them and taste the wine.

However, Yun Zheng and Su Zan did not move their chopsticks, as they certainly could not move.

"You're all welcome!"

Yun Zheng picked up the wine glass and said, "You all have come from far away. Today I am just welcoming you. Let's not talk about business first. I won't say much. Please eat and drink well. Don't be polite!"

"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty!"

Everyone raised their glasses, and Yun Zheng drank the wine in his glass.

After drinking a glass of wine, except for Su Zan, all the people in the Xiqu delegation showed expressions of shock. Some people could not bear the strong liquor and coughed violently.

"Cough cough..."

"What a drink!"

"Good wine!"

“I never thought there would be such a good wine in the world!”

Several people coughed and praised sincerely.

For those who were drinking Zhang Gong Zui for the first time, it was simply nectar.

Compared to this fine wine, the wine they had drunk before was simply garbage!

Listening to these people's praises, Yun Zheng couldn't help but feel secretly puzzled.

Didn’t Zhang Xu send people to Xiqu to sell this wine?

Why do all of these people act like they’re drinking this wine for the first time?

Anyone who can join the diplomatic mission should have a high status in Xiqu, right?

The wine that Zhang Xu sent people to sell over there, it couldn't be that none of it went into their mouths, right?

Or, who kept all the wine?

"This wine is more fragrant than the one the prince offered me to drink at Sawtooth Ridge!"

Su Zan savored the taste of the wine and looked at Yun Zheng with a smile on his face.

Yun Zheng curled his lips and said "nonsense" in his heart.

Can the wine mixed with alcohol temporarily be compared with the Zhang Gong Zui that has been stored in the cellar?

"It would be great if this wine could find favor with the great minister and the messengers."

Yun Zheng laughed, "Let's have a drink today and talk business tomorrow!"

"well!"

Su Zan agreed repeatedly.

It's really not a good day to discuss serious matters.

He was very puzzled by Yun Zheng's strange enthusiasm.

He would have to calm down and think carefully at night to find out what Yun Zheng was planning.

Afterwards, everyone ate and drank to their heart's content.

There are also many wine lovers among the envoys from Xiqu.

With Yun Zheng's unlimited supply of fine wine, even though Su Zan repeatedly and secretly reminded everyone not to drink too much, many people still got drunk.

Yun Zheng saw it all and was secretly happy in his heart.

Just like drinking!

Let them exchange grain for wine in the future!

As long as there is enough food, he will supply Zhang Gongzui unlimitedly!

It would be best if these guys exchanged all their military rations for wine!

Suddenly, Yun Zheng thought of another way to get food.

Well, I also need to find out where the wine that was previously sold to Xiqu went.

If it was really kept by someone, that person must be a wine lover.

If we find this person, we may be able to exchange wine for a large amount of food!

Maybe, I can use Zhang Gongzui to corrupt their inner selves!

Let the princes and nobles of Xiqu be proud to be able to use Zhang Gongzui to entertain guests!

It would be best to turn Zhang Gong Zui into their hard currency!

The more Yun Zheng thought about it, the more excited he became, and he almost danced.

However, he soon calmed down.

It’s quite a beautiful thought!

The prerequisite is that you can exchange enough grain to make wine.

Otherwise, everything you say is nonsense!

When the banquet was over, several Xiqu envoys were drunk, and even Su Zan was dizzy. His head was still barely clear, but his body was a little out of control.

Yun Zheng ordered his men to help everyone to the back hall of the government office to rest, and called Chen Bu over, whispering, "Write down all these drunk people!"

"Yes!"

Chen Bu accepted the order and asked in a low voice, "Should we try to get them to say something while they are drunk?"

"Need not."

Yun Zheng shook his head gently, "They are drunk, but their guards are not! Su Zan is probably just pretending to be drunk, there is no need to alert Su Zan!"

Even though Su Zan seemed to be unable to stand steadily, Yun Zheng felt that this was all an illusion.

Someone like Su Zan shouldn't get drunk easily.

"I understand!"

Chen Bu understood.

"That's it! I have to go back home too."

Yun Zheng said goodbye to Chen Bu and others and quickly rushed to the palace.

However, he did not return to the palace, but went to Zhang Xu's house first.

Zhang Xu's residence is not far from the palace, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to walk there.

"It's so late, why did Your Highness come here?"

Zhang Xu yawned and came to Yun Zheng and asked blankly.

Yun Zheng didn't bother to say more to Zhang Xu, and asked hurriedly: "Have you put away the leftover wine from the previous brewing?"

"Drunk head?"

Zhang Xu yawned and frowned, "I've kept that broken thing all along! But Your Highness never said what the thing is useful for, and now I've stored two jars of it..."

"That's good!"

Yun Zheng laughed, "Alright, alright, I won't disturb your rest! You have to save those wine heads, they will be very useful to me later!"
