Ning Yu had just arrived, and the scene here was not in the book. She knew that talking more would be useless, so she drank tea and listened silently.

Qin Zhongshu muttered: "In recent years, the court has placed more emphasis on civil service than on military affairs. Nowadays, in the peaceful and prosperous times, the status of generals has plummeted. This is just because Shibo is doing this so that you will suffer less in the future."

Du Yue smiled bitterly and shook his head when he heard this: "What happened to the generals? Without generals to guard the borders, how can those civil servants be of use?"

Du Yue loved to dance with guns and sticks since he was a child. When he was three years old, he asked his father to hire the best martial arts master in Beijing.

Over the years, Du Yue studied the art of war diligently, and he was more interested in going to the front line to kill the enemy than before.

"Besides, among those civil servants' families, how many of them haven't hired a martial arts master to teach their children to keep fit?"

This is a blatant double standard!

Just as they were talking, Chunhua and Qiuyue came back with wine cups, and the girls poured the wine with smiles.

Qin Zhongshu raised his wine glass: "Not to mention these things, I came out today firstly to calm Brother Yuxian's shock, and secondly to understand Brother Yue's hard work. Brother Shaofeng, I respect Qin for doing it first."

Qin Zhongshu drank the wine in the cup and showed the bottom of the cup to the three of them.

Everyone followed and had a drink.

As soon as the wine entered her throat, Ning Yu's eyes lit up. She couldn't help but fill up a glass for herself, and said with a smile: "My daughter is drunk, elegant and mellow. I will drink one more glass to express my gratitude to the spring flowers for the fine wine."

The young dandies knew that Ning Yu was good at wine, so when they saw him like this, they laughed and said: "Here's to the spring flowers and good wine."

Chunhua hurriedly drank a cup and said with a smile: "Prince Jade is so complimentary, all the young masters are so grateful."

The noble young people chatted and laughed happily, smiling happily among the guests.

Ning Yu leaned on the chair, eating snacks and fruits nonchalantly, taking a sip from time to time, and drank the wine in the pot unknowingly.

When Si Shaofeng saw it, although he was doubtful that Ning Yu was a good drinker, he quickly pushed his own wine bottle towards Ning Yu's hand.

Ning Yu was frightened. After drinking more wine and getting drunk, she forgot about the murder when she woke up.

Si Shaofeng turned to the crowd and asked with great interest: "I heard that Yu Tianxiang is from the Western Regions. He is mysterious and has graceful dancing. He only serves Liang Yu."

Qin Zhongshu took a sip of wine and said, "I'm just an actor. I'll serve whoever pays the highest price."

Du Yue put his arm around the girl next to him, touched the thin white hand, and asked narrowly: "Dear brother, could it be that the grapes are sour because I can't eat them?"

Chunhua was about to get the grapes on the table when she heard this and smiled.

Qiuyue was about to pour wine for Ning Yu. She held up the wine bottle and shook it in surprise: "Your Majesty, if you drink like this, if you come back two more times, Sister Chunhua's wine may not be enough."

Ning Yu was throwing peanuts into her mouth. When she heard this, she smiled and said, "Sister, don't be surprised. It's just that my daughter is too drunk. Yu'er, I couldn't help but drink a few more sips."

Du Yue joked: "My dear brother, drinking like this will make Miss Chunhua feel distressed."

Ning Yu looked a little embarrassed and pointed at the grapes in Chunhua's hand and said: "It doesn't matter, I will send you a recipe for making wine some other day. Even these grapes can make delicious wine."

Chunhua handed the grapes in her hand to Si Shaofeng, turned around and said with a smile: "Then I will wait for the prince's winemaking recipe."

Si Shaofeng took the grapes handed over by Chunhua and saw that Ning Yu's cheeks were slightly pink and her eyes were filled with moisture.

He thought Ning Yu was talking drunken nonsense, so he asked with a smile: "Brother Xian can also make wine? Why haven't I heard you say that?"

Ning Yu paused for a moment, then saw Si Shaofeng's suspicious eyes and said hurriedly: "I learned some from my grandfather when I was a child. Although I may not be able to brew it well myself, this recipe is indeed good."

Du Yue picked up a bunch of grapes, picked one and put it in his mouth: "I have never drunk wine made from grapes. Spring flowers are brewed. I will be the first to taste it."

Chunhua smiled and said: "Don't worry, the wine is brewed and I will invite you all to come as soon as possible."

Qin Zhongshu picked up the wine glass and looked at his friends present: "Then we will wait for Miss Chunhua's wine."

Seeing everyone toasting to her with smiles, Chunhua hurriedly stood up and said, "Young masters, I've broken this slave. The wine is ready. I will definitely invite you to come and taste it as soon as possible."

Four young dandies gathered in the capital. They were all handsome young men from aristocratic families, with different temperaments and colors. While talking and laughing, they attracted the attention of many people around them.

The girls in the building came over in turn with coquettish smiles, either giving me a plate of melon seeds, or dropping their handkerchiefs.

What's more, when you get in front of the young man you like, your legs and feet will be weak, your left foot will stumble over your right foot, and you will fall into the young man's arms.

When Ning Yu helped the second girl who fell on her body, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Ning Yu was not annoyed, touched the girl's small white hand, and said with a bright smile: "Who are you looking for, girl? She's so distracted, don't break it."

The girl saw that the young man in front of her had a clean temperament, red lips and white teeth, and a pair of dark and bright almond-shaped eyes. He was looking at her with a smile.

She was so flustered that she stood there blankly, not knowing how to answer.

Seeing that the girl was standing still, Chunhua asked with a smile: "Dongmei, what are you doing standing there? Why don't you go down and refill the tea for the gentlemen?"

Dongmei blushed. She glanced at Ning Yu quickly, picked up the teapot next to Ning Yu and left: "I'll give you some tea, please."

After saying that, without looking at the crowd, he hurriedly retreated holding the half-full teapot.

The four young beauties were already eye-catching, and everyone glanced sideways. Seeing another girl shyly leaving the scene, they couldn't help but whisper and discuss for a while.

Among the crowd, there was a dark-faced man holding a wine bowl and saying with drunken eyes, "Damn, this young man from Tiansheng is so handsome, even better than the noble concubines in the palace."

Jiang Laosan once sent seasonal fruits to the noble concubine in Liangzhou City on behalf of his own eunuch, and he had met her from a distance.

Although Concubine Wei was dignified, elegant, and graceful, something was missing. She looked like a paper figure in the painting.

After hearing this, the tall and thin man next to the man couldn't help but whisper: "Jiang Laosan, what are you talking about? Be careful and you may miss something important."

Jiang Laosan didn't care: "What are you afraid of? Grandpa, I can drink well. I can't miss anything important."

After saying that, he looked around greedily and couldn't help but said: "It's just that I don't let you touch the young lady when you come to Goulan Courtyard, but you don't even let me see the excitement?"

The tall and thin man said: "Jiang Laosan, you don't want to think about why we are here. If you do this kind of thing, stay away from the excitement, and you won't be afraid of exposing your whereabouts."

Jiang Laosan frowned and said: "Why can't I just watch the fun? The eunuch said that no matter what, I only want Liang Yu's head."

The prefect Wei Jin was the distant cousin of Concubine Wei of the Liang Kingdom. He was not favored by the concubine because of his good eyesight but low skill.

Wei and Jin learned about this palace coup from their uncles, and in order to please the imperial concubine's cousin, they volunteered to take over the job of assassinating Liang Yu.

He was just an abandoned and useless prince, perhaps even worse than himself. It was his good fortune to be able to become his stepping stone in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

Jiang Laosan and his wife were county detectives and worked under Wei Jin. As soon as they heard that their immediate boss wanted to assassinate the prince, they immediately withdrew from Laoyuan.

To harm the emperor's heir is a grave crime against the nine clans!
