Jing Yue jumped out of bed, and Lan Feng cried out, "Jing Jing! Jing Jing, come and save me, Chi Chi is scared!"
Jing Yue's eyes were fixed, and he searched for the voice, and smiled when he saw Lan Feng.
I saw a little blue chicken was tied to the tree trunk with a rope, and the rope was wound three times. It couldn't even lower its head, and it couldn't use its spiritual power. Couldn't it just call for help?
"Jingjing! Let me down quickly..."
Jing Yue shook his shoulders and rescued Lan Feng, who said aggrievedly, "Someone must be trying to harm Feng! I don't know who the hell knocked Jiji out and tied him to a tree again!"
Jing Yue was taken aback, and then heard Lan Feng say: "Is it the old man with long quilt today, the one who lent you the duster! He looked at Ji Chi many times! And there is that fat lady who lent us the quilt , and even praised Jiji's coat color!"
Jingyue was not as stupid as Lanfeng, he had already guessed the murderer, and glanced back, "Chichi, what do you think of him?"
Qin Yanzhi who followed didn't know what Lan Feng and Jing Yue were talking about, but he noticed Jing Yue's gaze, and saw Lan Feng staring at him in horror and hatred, and froze instantly.
Lan Feng: "Hmph! If you don't sleep early in the morning, you just want to see Feng's jokes!"
Jing Yue: "..." No, your point...
Forget it, let it go on in ignorance, Jing Yue picked up Jiji, squinted at Qin Yanzhi, and said deliberately: "Jiji, this illusion is very dangerous, you will sleep with me every night from now on, you understand?" ?”
Lan Feng happily said: "Okay, okay, Jiji likes Jingjing the most, and Jiji wants to sleep with Jingjing."
Qin Yanzhi: "..."
On this day, under Jing Yue's order, Qin Yanzhi tidied up another room reluctantly.
From then on, every night, he could see his brother carrying the little blue chicken back to the room.Every morning, my brother woke up, and the little blue chicken was still lying on his bed under his quilt, sleeping soundly.
Regarding this, Qin Yanzhi expressed that he really wanted to die.
In the blink of an eye, a week later, Jing and Qin gradually figured out certain rules of this world. Since men can start their own family when they reach their twenties, they also went to the county government to change their household registration, and they left the Wan family.
And in Wanzhai thousands of miles away, someone also inquired about the news.
"Master, I heard that your two good sons-in-law have changed their household registrations, and they are now called Chen Jing and Chen Qin."
A beautiful woman was acting coquettishly to a middle-aged man with a big belly, and the latter said angrily, "You really deserve to be Chen Shisheng's white-eyed wolf, who doesn't know what's good or bad! Hmph! Change it, I will change it tomorrow. They get rid of the clan, even if they regret it and want to come back in the future, they don't want to divide my Wan family."
The man was Wan Changpeng, and he was furious when he heard the news. The two bastards acted like they slapped him hard on the face. of?Ben thought about taking them back in a few years, and splitting up some shops for them to run, but now, he completely hated the two of them!
The woman was immediately happy, and said: "Master, don't worry, you still have Saburo, he is a filial child."
Wan Changpeng's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, looked a little better, "Yes! Now A Mian is my first wife, and Saburo is also my son, my only son."
The woman smiled sweetly, "Oh, by the way, I heard that Chen Jing and Chen Qin are brewing wine by themselves."
Wan Changpeng: "Ha, what can they brew?"
Woman: "Tell me, did they get some secret prescription?"
Wan Changpeng was taken aback: "It should be gone, right? My father-in-law was scared like that at that time, and he didn't come up with any new prescription?"
The woman thought about it too, if there was a prescription, why didn't the Chen family trust Wan Changpeng so much before the Dongchuang incident happened, why didn't they reveal it?
"Hee hee, let's just wait and see the joke. Let me tell you, if they are so unfilial, they should lose everything."
Wan Changpeng: "Yes, let them embarrass the Chen family!"
No matter how Wan Changpeng and others cursed, Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi couldn't hear it, and even if they did, they wouldn't care. At this time, their first batch of wine was almost ready.
Jing Yue found a wine recipe in the Chen family's old house, which was obviously a good recipe, but in order to win by surprise, he decided to make a little improvement on this basis.
Although he doesn't drink alcohol, he always knows some recipes. The recipes that are very common in the cultivation world are different in the mortal world.Jing Yue referred to several wine recipes and replaced some of the ingredients on the original recipe. Although the brewed wine is still ordinary wine, it tastes like fairy wine.
He used to see people make wine by boiling snow plums and Ganoderma lucidum fruit, attracting the wind to absorb the white moonlight, and the artistic conception is 12 points.When it was his turn, he had to cook the grain, mix the koji, ferment and distill, all of which were tedious and tiring tasks, but it was really interesting when paired with Qin Yanzhi.
After finishing these things, the money of the two of them will be spent, but Jing Yue still wants to set up a restaurant, and the restaurant needs to be refurbished.Because really good wine not only has requirements for the wine itself, but also pays attention to the utensils and the environment.
In order to earn enough money for decoration, Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi disguised themselves as knights of the rivers and lakes several times. Although they lost their spiritual power, they still had their martial power, so they went around "solving troubles and solving problems", "eliminating violence and peace", and collecting some rewards afterwards. He even pretended to be a bandit and robbed some rich and unkind people...
The gangsters and villains in the entire Jin County were cleaned up by the two of them. The law and order in the county was good, and they didn't pick up things on the road for a long time, and they didn't close their doors at night.
On the opening day of the restaurant, an old man with a white beard came to the restaurant. After counting his fingers, he drew out a long sword and waved it in the air. The restaurant's originally empty plaque was engraved with five powerful words "Sai Shenxian Restaurant". large characters.
The Taoist is pretended by Qin Yanzhi, and the characters are written with sword energy.
Many people found this scene interesting, and some even suspected that it was a gimmick made by the theater troupe invited by the restaurant.
A wealthy businessman passing by said cheerfully: "Haha, the Immortal Race? What a big tone, I want to see how the Immortal Race is."
He swaggered over the gate, and as soon as he entered the hall, he felt refreshed. It was not just a visual enjoyment, it seemed that even his body was lighter, and he felt as if he was floating in the sky.
The wealthy businessman thought it was his own psychological influence, after all he had been to so many restaurants in Da Zhao, and this one had the most unique decoration.Although they all seem to be ordinary landscape decorations, they are just right and perfect where to put what and what to decorate, and no one can find any faults.Moreover, the originally ordinary objects, against the backdrop of the surrounding display, also present unexpected delicacy.
For example, the fish pond in the corner of the hall is also a rockery lotus koi, but only the shape of the rockery can change with the position where he stands. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a scene at a step.Not to mention that there are a few bowl lotuses floating in the water, and the tender pistils are dewy, quiet and transparent, as if with a sense of Zen.
The wealthy businessman originally came in with the intention of watching the excitement, but now he was a little more looking forward to it. He randomly picked a seat by the window, and saw a handsome young man approaching him, and asked with a smile, "Guest officer, do you need a seat?" What?"
The wealthy businessman looked at the wooden sign hanging above the counter, and saw that they were all ordinary appetizers, so he ordered some of his favorites casually, and said: "It's a restaurant, of course you have to drink, what kind of wine do you have here? "
Youth: "There is only one kind of wine, it's called Xinghuacun Wine, and it tastes better than a god when you're drunk in the world of mortals."
The rich merchant didn't take it seriously, and said with a light smile, "Then let's have a pot."
Youth: "You are the first distinguished guest of our restaurant, you can enjoy the special service of the restaurant once."
The wealthy businessman was interested: "Oh?"
The young man snapped his fingers, and saw a blue-haired bird flying over with a plate of melon seeds on its head. The little blue bird carefully placed the plate on the table, and with a peck, it peeled out a plump melon seed, which was black and smooth. The small eyes stared at the wealthy businessman.
The rich businessman laughed, "This bird has aura."
After finishing speaking, he patted the little blue bird's head, and the little blue bird immediately rubbed his palm obediently.
So when the young man went to the back kitchen, this blue bird was always greeting the guests in the hall, and no one could help teasing him a few times.
Most of the appetizers in the restaurant are cooked and cold dishes. Jingyue has already prepared them, and now he just needs to put them on a plate.Of course, Qin Yanzhi, who took off the vest of the old Taoist priest, was in charge of serving the dishes.
When Jing Yue came to the hall again with dishes and bowls, he heard the wealthy businessman jokingly say, "Boss, why are all the dishes here not as expensive as a pot of wine?"
Jing Yue said with a smile: "Vegetables are ordinary vegetables, and wine is fairy wine."
Fu Shangle: "Okay, I'll come and taste the fairy wine."
At first glance, he noticed that the jug holding the wine was a transparent azure color, like jade but not jade, and it was not made of glass.When he picked up the jug, he felt a refreshing coolness pass from his fingers to his limbs, making every pore of him feel happy.
The wealthy businessman who traveled all over the world had never seen it before, and asked curiously, "What kind of material is this jug made of?"
Jing Yue: "It's just some ordinary rocks."
The rich businessman just pretended to be the boss and didn't want to talk about it, and didn't ask any more questions, but in fact it was an ordinary mountain rock, which had only been refined and polished by the "know-it-all" Jing Yue.
Jing Yue: "Please."
The wealthy businessman poured a glass of wine, and the aroma of the wine filled the hall. Everyone's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help looking at the wealthy businessman.
I saw that he first closed his eyes intoxicated, took a deep breath, then put the wine glass between his lips and took a small sip, his face turned red immediately, and drank the wine in the glass in one last gulp.
"Good!" The rich businessman couldn't help but praise, just a glass of wine, he felt light all over, as if he was about to ascend to immortality, but his mind was sober, sober that he suddenly remembered many pasts that he thought he had forgotten.
He remembered that when he was young, his parents asked him to worship a mason to learn crafts. On the first day, the mason asked him what he wanted in the future?When he was young, he replied that he wanted to build a big house for his family and one for his master.After more than a year, the mason suddenly fell ill and was seriously ill. Then, a plague broke out in the village. When the plague first appeared, his father took them and his family to move away. Later, the imperial court came to seal the village. It is said that A whole village was burned to death.
As he got older and encountered several accidents, he got married, established a career, and had children. He gradually forgot this experience and the promise he made when he was young.Although by chance, the family also lived in a big house, but his first master, who only taught him for more than a year, treated him like a parent and child, and locked him out of the door for fear of infecting him when he was sick. Master, however, was buried in a sea of flames, not even a single grave.
The rich merchant's heart shivered, his memory was as clear as yesterday, the corners of his eyes were inexplicably moist, and he said silently that I want to go back to my hometown and build a big house for Master, so that his soul can return home.
The next moment, "Thank you" suddenly came from his ear, the voice of a mason.
The rich businessman wondered if he was drunk?But he still replied: "It is the apprentice who promised you."
He fell into a mysterious mood, but the other guests were confused. Seeing the rich businessman only drank a glass of wine, they laughed, cried, and talked to themselves.
Someone said: "Just pour one glass? How bad is he for drinking?"
Another big man said: "Is this wine so powerful?"
Jing Yue just brought him the wine, "The wine is not strong, it's because you have too many things on your mind."
The big man curled his lips and muttered, "I'm just talking about it, I'm not drunk after a thousand cups!"
He grabbed the jug and poured it into his mouth, the clear wine poured down the spout, the big man smashed his mouth, his eyes gradually became a little loose, and then he laughed foolishly.
He saw that he had become a knight in the rivers and lakes, carrying a sword to fight for justice, and traveled all over the country of Zhao.During this period, he met countless heroes and heroes, and a lot of beauties threw themselves into his arms. In the end, the emperor even gave him the princess.
"Hehe...hehehehe..."
The big man laughed so that everyone's hair stood on end, but he didn't realize it.He had already drained the wine in the jug, but he still maintained the posture of pouring the wine, as if he wanted to die of drunkenness and never wake up again.
"I'm still not drunk with a thousand cups!" Everyone shook their heads.
A scholar took a sip of the wine, and his whole body felt as if struck by lightning. At that moment, he seemed to drink all the ups and downs of life, all the emotions and six desires, and became a poem in a moment, writing ten poems in succession.
There are also many guests, they just drank a pot of wine inadvertently, but they seem to have drank the world of mortals. Every sip can directly hit the most vulnerable corner of their hearts, or capture the core part of their desires, weaving fiction and reality real dream.
Xinghuacun Liquor has such a common name, but only when you really experience it, you will know that it is really elated and surpasses the gods.
As if overnight, Xinghua Village wine was introduced to the ears of thousands of households in Jin County, and Saishenxian Restaurant also attracted more and more guests, including many gentry, rich people, high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Gradually spread to the south of the Yangtze River.
In the past few days, Wan Changpeng has been in a state of desperation, because the time for making offerings is approaching, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs heard about a kind of wine called Xinghuacun, and intends to check it out. There were some subtle changes.
At this time, Wan Changpeng was throwing pots and bowls at home, cursing, and his concubine was sitting aside, and suddenly said: "Xinghua Village, I remember that Chen Jing and Chen Qin were sent back to Xinghua Village? Before, it seemed that they really heard Said they were brewing?"
Wan Changpeng was startled, hesitantly said: "It should be impossible..."
The concubine didn't quite believe it either, but now she had no news of those two bastards at all.The two have been expelled from the clan, and there will be no property in the Wan family in the future, so she is too lazy to care about it and let her eyes and ears come back.
But what if?The little concubine didn't know why, but she always felt a little uneasy, so she said: "Why don't I send someone to find out, whether it is or not, we should be prepared."
However, the result of the inquiry was quite unsatisfactory. They did not ask who made the Xinghuacun wine. Instead, they found out that the Xinghuacun wine not only tastes good, but also has the feeling of surpassing the gods after drinking it. Everyone who drank this wine All wine guests are conquered.
Wan Changpeng's worry, if it continues like this, when it really reaches the emperor's ears, their Wanchun wine will probably be squeezed out!
After thinking about it for a while, Wan Changpeng put his heart on hold, and called the steward to give some instructions.
So, ten days later, a group of hooligans from other counties suddenly came to Saishenxian Restaurant. They said that there were flies in the dishes, and that the dishes were not fresh. up.
Jing Yue took their lapels and threw them out one by one, but these people were lying on the doorway and rolling over, howling that Dao Sai Shen Xian Restaurant sold bad food, and beat them.
That being the case, Jing Yue really beat them up.
The dry howl turned into a miserable howl, and no one dared to make a sound in the crowd on the street.
This is not over yet, at night, Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi split up and found the temporary residence of this wave of hooligans, another "send warmth".So the next day, there were several people who didn't even wear trousers at the door of a certain inn. They all had bruised noses and swollen faces, and their personnel were unknown, which also attracted the yamen of Jin County.
Although people haven't seen what happened, they can somewhat guess the reason. In this way, the reputation of Saishenxian Restaurant is even more resounding, and they all suspect that there is an expert behind it.
After Wan Changpeng heard about this, he was so angry that he almost fainted. At this moment, even worse news came, that the Saishenxian restaurant was going to the capital!
The news came from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the reason why they told Wan Changpeng was simply to extort more money.
But what can Changpeng Wan do?Even if you keep cursing in your heart, don't you have to show your filial piety with a smile on your face?
Even so, things are still developing in the direction he fears most - as the reputation of Xinghuacun Liquor grows, finally even the emperor knows about it.
At a palace banquet, the emperor suddenly mentioned Xinghuacun wine, and said that the taste of this wine was rumored to surpass that of gods, and all the concubines and courtiers cheered.
Someone said: "I heard that one sip of this wine can make you fall asleep, and when you wake up, you will feel a sense of enlightenment."
"The concubine heard that this wine not only tastes great, it can also nourish the body, and even rejuvenate the body."
"There are still rumors among the people that Xinghua Village wine is real fairy wine, and the wine recipe is the advice of a fairy dream. If you drink too much, you will live forever."
……
Throughout the dynasties, every emperor yearned for longevity, and Emperor Zhao was no exception.
Someone thought about what he wanted, and said flatteringly: "Why don't you ask the owner of Sai Shenxian Restaurant to offer the wine?"
The emperor said calmly, "Be respectful to the immortals. There must be reasons for the immortals to give wineries to whom. Everything should be done according to the rules."
The person in charge of the House of Internal Affairs is the emperor's uncle, and he said knowingly: "I heard that the owner of the restaurant has come to the capital, so I immediately consulted him about the purchase."
However, to everyone's surprise, the next day, Saishenxian Restaurant sent a war invitation to Wanchun Winery, inviting Wanjia to come to Beijing to fight wine in half a month.
This matter quickly spread across the country, because the emperor was very interested in Xinghuacun wine before, someone told him this matter, the emperor said in awe: "In this case, let Liu Dashi and General Li go to break it off. , Let’s see whose wine is the best, the winner will be able to offer wine to the royal family.”
Wan Changpeng, who received the battle invitation, was covered by dark clouds. He didn't want to respond at first, and set off Saishenxian Restaurant as a grandstanding clown with a calm and breezy attitude. Who knew that the emperor actually intervened. Would he still have the guts to refuse?
But Xinghuacun wine appeared too strangely, Wan Changpeng really had no confidence, these days he couldn't eat well and sleep well, even lost more than half of his hair, seeing that the time to enter Beijing was approaching, he was helpless and had no confidence .
"Master, since it is inevitable, let's turn passive into active."
The concubine came to bite her ear again, Wan Changpeng asked anxiously, "What's your idea?"
Concubine: "Since the owner of Saishenxian Restaurant wants to challenge us, we should choose the place for the competition."
Wan Changpeng heard, yes!Wanjia has been running a wine shop for many years, so of course he knows the importance of the drinking environment. He has no way to interfere in other aspects, so at least he can start from this point!
In the end, the competition between Xinghuacun Liquor and Wanchun Liquor was decided in the garden of Yong'anhou's family, the chief minister of the House of Internal Affairs.
On this day, there was a lot of cars and horses in front of the gate of the Marquis of Yong'an, and many courtiers and their relatives from the capital came. People who have no interest in this can't be too maverick.
They had heated discussions. Some people thought that although Xinghuacun Liquor was a rising star, it was coming aggressively. Some people thought that Wanchun Liquor was even more extraordinary as a tribute wine for many years. The two sides argued endlessly.When Marquis Yong'an, Bachelor Liu and General Li took their seats, the competition officially began.
Since Jingqin and Wan Changpeng were arranged in different rooms before, the two parties did not meet each other until someone came to invite them.
When Wan Changpeng saw it, his eyes almost burst into flames. He wished he could strangle the two unfilial sons to death on the spot, and then cramp up and expose their corpses for three days.
Unexpectedly, wow, I did not expect that the people who run their Wanchun Winery behind them are really Chen Qin and Chen Jing who were expelled by him!
It was also the first time Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi saw Wan Changpeng, but they ignored each other by coincidence, which made Wan Changpeng almost vomit blood.
When a group of people entered the garden, Jing Yue found that the garden was decorated in a luxurious manner, and he guessed that Wan Changpeng had done something wrong.It is estimated that Wan Changpeng thought that Xinghuacun wine was spread like a god, and one of the reasons was that the restaurant's decoration was full of immortality, which affected the perception of the guests.Now that it is in a magnificent environment, Xinghuacun wine seems to be inconsistent in temperament and out of place, and the taste will be weakened by a point or two accordingly.
For this, Jing Yue only thought it was funny, in the face of absolute strength, all scheming was in vain.
After complicated etiquette and inquiries, both sides presented their own wines. Among them, the wine jug containing Xinghuacun wine was a plain bottle, which looked a bit shabby today.However, due to its status as a tribute wine for many years, Wanchun Wine has always followed the luxurious route, which complements the current environment.
Everyone knows that there is a word called "preconceived ideas", and this is even more so in wine tasting. Once the wine tastes on the tongue, it will affect the taste to some extent, so whoever tastes the wine first will take advantage of it.
Although Marquis Yong'an and Wan Changpeng are not friendly, they have known each other for many years, and the Wan family has always been obedient, and their filial piety has never been short. Therefore, he is a little partial in his heart, otherwise he would not have arranged the garden like this.
When Wan Changpeng saw that Marquis Yong'an had chosen Wanchun wine first, he was really relieved. Although he had expected it a long time ago, he was completely at ease now.
As long as Marquis Yong'an chooses the Wanchun wine first, the other two adults will not go against his will, they must taste the Wanchun wine first!
In this way, he has the right time, place, and people, and unless Xinghuacun Wine is really against the sky, he must win!
A maid raised her fingers slightly and poured the Wanchun wine into the cup. The fragrance was blown away by the breeze, and the garden was immediately fragrant.
"It smells so good..."
Many ministers couldn't help but take a deep breath. Some of them had tasted Wanchun wine at the palace banquet. It was quite good, but it didn't have the fragrance of today, did it?
Seeing everyone's expressions, Wan Changpeng couldn't help being a little proud. For this competition, he offered all the old wine that he planned to pass on to his family. Can he not be intoxicated?
"it is good!"
Marquis Yong'an took a sip of the drink, and boasted loudly: "The mouth is soft, mellow and fragrant, good wine!"
He turned to Grand Master Liu and General Li and said, "What do you two think?"
Grand Master Liu just put down his wine glass. He stroked his three-inch beard and said, "It's really good wine. It's clear but not thin, thick but not cloudy. After just one sip, the tip of the tongue will have a long-lasting fragrance."
General Li couldn't talk so much nonsense, so he said directly: "Give me another drink!"
Marquis Yong'an laughed and said, "General Li, don't worry, you have to taste Xinghuacun wine again."
The enthusiasm for drinking was interrupted, and a hint of impatience flashed across General Li's eyes, but he thought that he still had a task to do, so he said sullenly, "Hurry up."
General Li was a little lacking in interest at first, but when the cork of the spout was pulled out, General Li was shocked.The aroma of the wine spread, making the wine worms all over him scream, if he wasn't afraid of losing his composure, he really wished he could grab the jug and drink it first!
However, when the glass of wine was delivered to him, General Li became cautious again, picked up the glass cautiously, and took a small sip.
"boom--"
At that moment, it was as if thousands of thunders exploded in his mind. He heard the drums and horses neighing, and saw the cold light of the armored new moon, and the bloody battlefield covered with smoke and frost, and white bones!
All the past that he experienced, are reappearing one by one.
But this time, he could clearly distinguish even a soldier's emotions, as if he had the eyes of a god, and could see all the stories in their hearts.
After drinking a cup, General Li's eyes blurred, as if he was drunk, but Master Liu and Marquis Yong'an were not much better, they all stared blankly at the wine in the cup, their thoughts drifted far away.
The former thought of all the things he had done all the way from the poor family to today; the latter saw himself wearing a dragon robe, sitting on the throne of the Zijin Palace, accepting the worship of all the officials, and from then on he said the world, and all the people surrendered!
Marquis Yong'an was about to say "Everyone is safe", when he suddenly heard a loud noise, he was brought back to reality, and saw that General Li had pulled out his saber and put it heavily on the table, "Good wine! If there is such a thing in this world Immortal wine must be this wine!"
Marquis Yong'an swallowed his saliva and swallowed the words rolling down his throat. His back was already wet with cold sweat. At this moment, his lips were pale and he trembled for a long time but he didn't say a word.
And Master Liu couldn't help the corners of his eyes turning red, and sighed: "This wine will definitely be included in thousands of poems and articles, and will be praised by thousands of literati, and it will last forever!"
Things have developed to this point, and the result is already obvious.
Wan Changpeng felt like falling into an ice cellar, he didn't dare to get angry with the officials in the hall, he only dared to burn his anger on the two people nearby.As soon as the dark eyes turned around, the two looked over at the same time, and the corners of their lips curled up at the same time, even the arcs were exactly the same.
And the meaning in the smile can be easily interpreted, nothing more than to say - you lose, you are finished.
Rebel! ! !
Wan Changpeng's brain became hot, and his reason burned out. Even if he was going to be swallowed by cold water, he would drag the two of them to sink together!
"Master Hou! My lords! Xinghuacun wine is actually the recipe of Wanjia, and they stole the recipe to harm Wanjia!"
Wan Changpeng fell to his knees with a "thud" and yelled sadly, and he didn't realize what he said until he yelled out.At first, I was a little scared, but after thinking about it, the idea is actually not bad?Anyway, except for these two evils, the Chen family is dead. Since there is no proof of death, he was careful not to be afraid of being investigated, and even poured sewage all over the Chen family. Now he can say whatever he wants!
Yong'an Hou Ben was still in fear, but at this moment he was startled by Wan Changpeng's shout, and immediately said with an ugly face: "How did they steal your Wan family's recipe? Could it be that all the wine recipes in the world belong to your Wan family? No?"
Sensing the impatience of Marquis Yong'an, Wan Changpeng said urgently: "Master Hou! Chen Jing and Chen Qin are descendants of the villain's first wife, the Chen family. Abandoned by the villain. In order to get revenge on the villain, Chen Jing and Chen Qin stole the wine and escaped from Wanjia, and changed their household registration without authorization. Therefore, the villain only found out the truth today!"
With such a sudden turn of events, everyone in the garden was stunned.
"Hehe..." A sarcastic laugh suddenly sounded, and Chen Jing, one of the Chen family brothers, said: "Master Wan, you said Xinghua Village wine is Wanjia's recipe, why has Wanchun Winery not brewed it? Since you are an imperial merchant, the wine you offer must be the most precious and rare wine of the Wan family, Xinghuacun wine and Wanchun wine are comparable, is it because you can't taste it? Or are you deliberately deceiving the emperor?"
Wan Changpeng did not expect that the older son, who used to be honest and honest, became so eloquent and eloquent. In addition, he was a little stage frighted under the watchful eyes of the public. I just found out, but you stole it as soon as I found it!"
Jing Yue: "Then you have seen the wine recipe? Since you said it is an ancestral recipe, you should remember such an important recipe, right? Why don't you tell me about it? Let's compare it on the spot. Master Wan should know how to read." Bar?"
Wan Changpeng: "You—"
"Enough!" Marquis Yong'an said angrily, "This is not a place for you to quarrel!" Wan Changpeng's performance just now, fools can tell that the wine party has nothing to do with him, but Marquis Yong'an still asked out of curiosity : "Chen Jingchen Qin, where does your wine recipe come from?"
Jing Yue: "We found it by accident when we went back to our hometown and cleaned up the house." He changed the subject, "My lords, Caomin wants to sue Wan Changpeng! Once he tells him that he colluded with officials to force Caomin's grandfather to death in order to ask for a drink. Second, sue him for spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife, forcing his first wife to die, and third, sue him for using a concubine as a concubine, and expelling Caomin and his younger brother from the ten thousand families! How can such a heartless, heartless person deserve to be an imperial merchant?"
Everyone was surprised again, why did I sue my son first?Now the son wants to sue Laozi again?
You must know that the reputation of a son suing his father is not good. Although it is not acceptable for a son to sue his father first, it is still considered unfilial in the eyes of the world, unless the father is really a treacherous and evil person.
In the hall, Master Liu served in the Ministry of Criminal Justice many years ago, and he has always been fair and honest. When he heard that human life was involved, he immediately asked: "Is what you said true?"
Jing Yue: "The grassroots dare not make false accusations."
Bachelor Liu: "Why, please explain in detail."
Jingyue then explained how the Wan family made their fortune, how they forced the Chen family to death, and how they poured dirty water on her after her death.
"Back then, we brothers were kicked out of the Wan family. We had nowhere to go. We accidentally found a wine recipe. We just thought it was the vitality left by the heavens for us and the Chen family, so we tried our best to brew Xinghua Village wine. We want to share with Wan The spring wine workshop posted the battle post, hoping to clear the name of the Chen family, but I didn't expect that he would even want to be greedy for Xinghua village wine."
Jingyue made a look that couldn't bear it anymore, "Caomin is willing to disclose the recipe of Xinghua Village wine, but he will never let Wanjia have another chance to profit from Chen's wine, and will beat him up!"
Before Master Liu had time to speak, Wan Changpeng fainted when he heard a "crack".
Although he was dizzy, he couldn't stop the development of the situation. With the intervention of Senior Scholar Liu, the Yamen quickly accepted the case.
In the end, Wan Changpeng was punished for the three crimes of killing people, doting on his concubine and destroying his wife, and being a concubine as a concubine.At the same time, Wanchun Distillery's title as the imperial merchant was also taken away, and they were prohibited from using the Chen Family Distillery to make wine.
The concubine who was originally righted is still a concubine, and can only guard the family property of the Wan family. This property is not small, but it is not yet known whether it will be a blessing or a curse for a weak woman with a bad reputation.
Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi also disclosed the wine recipe of Xinghua Village Wine as promised before, and donated all their family property.This move won praise from all over the world, and the reputation of Xinghua Village Liquor also reached its peak with this case, and was finally selected as the tribute wine.
On the day when the two officially became imperial merchants, they suddenly felt that the karma in their bodies was unraveled. A golden glow descended from the sky, and the two disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving only the eternal legend of Xinghuacun Wine.
-
When Qin Yanzhi woke up, he found that he was lying on a slightly old altar table with burning incense candles, and there was a clay Buddha statue in front of him.
He was a little dazed, so he rubbed his forehead, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, where's brother?
Qin Yanzhi looked around, it was a small temple in the mountains, and he was the only one in the temple.
"elder brother!"
He called out, but there was no answer.
what happened?Why did my brother disappear when they came out of the illusion?
Qin Yanzhi rushed to the gate of the temple in a few steps, and suddenly pushed open the dilapidated door, a gust of wind blew in, blowing a few fallen leaves.
He squinted his eyes, only to hear a loud bang, silver lightning pierced the night, making people feel ominous for no reason.
Qin Yanzhi was even more anxious. Seeing the heavy raindrops, he ran out in a hurry, not knowing where he was going. He was very worried that his brother would be in danger!
However, he didn't run for long, but stopped slowly.
The torrential rain obscured the sight, not far away, a slender white figure could be seen faintly, Qin Yan took a breath, "Who is there?"
The other party didn't answer, but just took a few steps forward.
The figure gradually became clear, the other party's black hair was like a waterfall, and the rainwater slipped from his hair like pearls.The young man with starry eyes and beautiful face was as tall and straight as a bamboo, and his wet white clothes were tightly attached to his body, outlining his perfect figure.
He just stood quietly in the rain, with an abnormal blush on his pale face, and said to Qin Yanzhi, "Yanzhi, are you still here?"
Qin Yanzhi was startled, and ran over quickly, "Brother!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to Jing Yue, the other party's body softened and leaned into his arms.
"elder brother?"
Jing Yue said softly, "Yan Zhi, I seem to be hurt, please hug me."
Qin Yanzhi was flustered, and when she lowered her head, she happened to see rainwater falling from Jing Yue's smooth forehead, wetting her slender eyelashes like a drop of tears.
At this moment, the corners of Jing Yue's eyes were reddish, his eyes caught his mind like a hook, and his pale pink lips were round and full, making his throat tight, even in the storm, he still felt hot and dry.
Qin Yanzhi ignored the strange feeling in his heart, and hugged Jing Yue by the waist.
A pair of cool hands wrapped around his neck, Qin Yanzhi felt numb all over, and his neck seemed to be on fire, he quickly carried Jing Yue back to the temple, and then let go carefully.
"Brother, where are you hurt?"
Jing Yue didn't answer directly, but pulled a corner of his sleeve and shook it lightly, "You are tired too, let's sit down."
At that moment, it was like a feather brushing against Qin Yanzhi's heart, and his chest was throbbing. It was a feeling he had never felt before, it was strange, and he had some unspeakable expectations.
Like a marionette, he followed Jing Yue slowly to the altar.
Jing Yue turned around, smiled at him, pointed to the futon on the ground and said, "Sit down."
Qin Yanzhi sat down, and saw Jing Yue also kneeling beside him.
The candlelight illuminated the other party's clear outline, making it look extraordinarily soft, and the faint red mole on Jingyue's earlobe looked a little charming at this moment.
He averted his eyes and asked again: "Where is brother injured? You don't tell me, I am very worried."
"here."
Jing Yue pulled open his skirt slightly, revealing his fair and delicate collarbone, and then took Qin Yanzhi's hand and placed it on his heart.
As if struck by lightning, Qin Yanzhi withdrew his hand as if scalded,
Jing Yue's eyes were fixed, and he searched for the voice, and smiled when he saw Lan Feng.
I saw a little blue chicken was tied to the tree trunk with a rope, and the rope was wound three times. It couldn't even lower its head, and it couldn't use its spiritual power. Couldn't it just call for help?
"Jingjing! Let me down quickly..."
Jing Yue shook his shoulders and rescued Lan Feng, who said aggrievedly, "Someone must be trying to harm Feng! I don't know who the hell knocked Jiji out and tied him to a tree again!"
Jing Yue was taken aback, and then heard Lan Feng say: "Is it the old man with long quilt today, the one who lent you the duster! He looked at Ji Chi many times! And there is that fat lady who lent us the quilt , and even praised Jiji's coat color!"
Jingyue was not as stupid as Lanfeng, he had already guessed the murderer, and glanced back, "Chichi, what do you think of him?"
Qin Yanzhi who followed didn't know what Lan Feng and Jing Yue were talking about, but he noticed Jing Yue's gaze, and saw Lan Feng staring at him in horror and hatred, and froze instantly.
Lan Feng: "Hmph! If you don't sleep early in the morning, you just want to see Feng's jokes!"
Jing Yue: "..." No, your point...
Forget it, let it go on in ignorance, Jing Yue picked up Jiji, squinted at Qin Yanzhi, and said deliberately: "Jiji, this illusion is very dangerous, you will sleep with me every night from now on, you understand?" ?”
Lan Feng happily said: "Okay, okay, Jiji likes Jingjing the most, and Jiji wants to sleep with Jingjing."
Qin Yanzhi: "..."
On this day, under Jing Yue's order, Qin Yanzhi tidied up another room reluctantly.
From then on, every night, he could see his brother carrying the little blue chicken back to the room.Every morning, my brother woke up, and the little blue chicken was still lying on his bed under his quilt, sleeping soundly.
Regarding this, Qin Yanzhi expressed that he really wanted to die.
In the blink of an eye, a week later, Jing and Qin gradually figured out certain rules of this world. Since men can start their own family when they reach their twenties, they also went to the county government to change their household registration, and they left the Wan family.
And in Wanzhai thousands of miles away, someone also inquired about the news.
"Master, I heard that your two good sons-in-law have changed their household registrations, and they are now called Chen Jing and Chen Qin."
A beautiful woman was acting coquettishly to a middle-aged man with a big belly, and the latter said angrily, "You really deserve to be Chen Shisheng's white-eyed wolf, who doesn't know what's good or bad! Hmph! Change it, I will change it tomorrow. They get rid of the clan, even if they regret it and want to come back in the future, they don't want to divide my Wan family."
The man was Wan Changpeng, and he was furious when he heard the news. The two bastards acted like they slapped him hard on the face. of?Ben thought about taking them back in a few years, and splitting up some shops for them to run, but now, he completely hated the two of them!
The woman was immediately happy, and said: "Master, don't worry, you still have Saburo, he is a filial child."
Wan Changpeng's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, looked a little better, "Yes! Now A Mian is my first wife, and Saburo is also my son, my only son."
The woman smiled sweetly, "Oh, by the way, I heard that Chen Jing and Chen Qin are brewing wine by themselves."
Wan Changpeng: "Ha, what can they brew?"
Woman: "Tell me, did they get some secret prescription?"
Wan Changpeng was taken aback: "It should be gone, right? My father-in-law was scared like that at that time, and he didn't come up with any new prescription?"
The woman thought about it too, if there was a prescription, why didn't the Chen family trust Wan Changpeng so much before the Dongchuang incident happened, why didn't they reveal it?
"Hee hee, let's just wait and see the joke. Let me tell you, if they are so unfilial, they should lose everything."
Wan Changpeng: "Yes, let them embarrass the Chen family!"
No matter how Wan Changpeng and others cursed, Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi couldn't hear it, and even if they did, they wouldn't care. At this time, their first batch of wine was almost ready.
Jing Yue found a wine recipe in the Chen family's old house, which was obviously a good recipe, but in order to win by surprise, he decided to make a little improvement on this basis.
Although he doesn't drink alcohol, he always knows some recipes. The recipes that are very common in the cultivation world are different in the mortal world.Jing Yue referred to several wine recipes and replaced some of the ingredients on the original recipe. Although the brewed wine is still ordinary wine, it tastes like fairy wine.
He used to see people make wine by boiling snow plums and Ganoderma lucidum fruit, attracting the wind to absorb the white moonlight, and the artistic conception is 12 points.When it was his turn, he had to cook the grain, mix the koji, ferment and distill, all of which were tedious and tiring tasks, but it was really interesting when paired with Qin Yanzhi.
After finishing these things, the money of the two of them will be spent, but Jing Yue still wants to set up a restaurant, and the restaurant needs to be refurbished.Because really good wine not only has requirements for the wine itself, but also pays attention to the utensils and the environment.
In order to earn enough money for decoration, Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi disguised themselves as knights of the rivers and lakes several times. Although they lost their spiritual power, they still had their martial power, so they went around "solving troubles and solving problems", "eliminating violence and peace", and collecting some rewards afterwards. He even pretended to be a bandit and robbed some rich and unkind people...
The gangsters and villains in the entire Jin County were cleaned up by the two of them. The law and order in the county was good, and they didn't pick up things on the road for a long time, and they didn't close their doors at night.
On the opening day of the restaurant, an old man with a white beard came to the restaurant. After counting his fingers, he drew out a long sword and waved it in the air. The restaurant's originally empty plaque was engraved with five powerful words "Sai Shenxian Restaurant". large characters.
The Taoist is pretended by Qin Yanzhi, and the characters are written with sword energy.
Many people found this scene interesting, and some even suspected that it was a gimmick made by the theater troupe invited by the restaurant.
A wealthy businessman passing by said cheerfully: "Haha, the Immortal Race? What a big tone, I want to see how the Immortal Race is."
He swaggered over the gate, and as soon as he entered the hall, he felt refreshed. It was not just a visual enjoyment, it seemed that even his body was lighter, and he felt as if he was floating in the sky.
The wealthy businessman thought it was his own psychological influence, after all he had been to so many restaurants in Da Zhao, and this one had the most unique decoration.Although they all seem to be ordinary landscape decorations, they are just right and perfect where to put what and what to decorate, and no one can find any faults.Moreover, the originally ordinary objects, against the backdrop of the surrounding display, also present unexpected delicacy.
For example, the fish pond in the corner of the hall is also a rockery lotus koi, but only the shape of the rockery can change with the position where he stands. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a scene at a step.Not to mention that there are a few bowl lotuses floating in the water, and the tender pistils are dewy, quiet and transparent, as if with a sense of Zen.
The wealthy businessman originally came in with the intention of watching the excitement, but now he was a little more looking forward to it. He randomly picked a seat by the window, and saw a handsome young man approaching him, and asked with a smile, "Guest officer, do you need a seat?" What?"
The wealthy businessman looked at the wooden sign hanging above the counter, and saw that they were all ordinary appetizers, so he ordered some of his favorites casually, and said: "It's a restaurant, of course you have to drink, what kind of wine do you have here? "
Youth: "There is only one kind of wine, it's called Xinghuacun Wine, and it tastes better than a god when you're drunk in the world of mortals."
The rich merchant didn't take it seriously, and said with a light smile, "Then let's have a pot."
Youth: "You are the first distinguished guest of our restaurant, you can enjoy the special service of the restaurant once."
The wealthy businessman was interested: "Oh?"
The young man snapped his fingers, and saw a blue-haired bird flying over with a plate of melon seeds on its head. The little blue bird carefully placed the plate on the table, and with a peck, it peeled out a plump melon seed, which was black and smooth. The small eyes stared at the wealthy businessman.
The rich businessman laughed, "This bird has aura."
After finishing speaking, he patted the little blue bird's head, and the little blue bird immediately rubbed his palm obediently.
So when the young man went to the back kitchen, this blue bird was always greeting the guests in the hall, and no one could help teasing him a few times.
Most of the appetizers in the restaurant are cooked and cold dishes. Jingyue has already prepared them, and now he just needs to put them on a plate.Of course, Qin Yanzhi, who took off the vest of the old Taoist priest, was in charge of serving the dishes.
When Jing Yue came to the hall again with dishes and bowls, he heard the wealthy businessman jokingly say, "Boss, why are all the dishes here not as expensive as a pot of wine?"
Jing Yue said with a smile: "Vegetables are ordinary vegetables, and wine is fairy wine."
Fu Shangle: "Okay, I'll come and taste the fairy wine."
At first glance, he noticed that the jug holding the wine was a transparent azure color, like jade but not jade, and it was not made of glass.When he picked up the jug, he felt a refreshing coolness pass from his fingers to his limbs, making every pore of him feel happy.
The wealthy businessman who traveled all over the world had never seen it before, and asked curiously, "What kind of material is this jug made of?"
Jing Yue: "It's just some ordinary rocks."
The rich businessman just pretended to be the boss and didn't want to talk about it, and didn't ask any more questions, but in fact it was an ordinary mountain rock, which had only been refined and polished by the "know-it-all" Jing Yue.
Jing Yue: "Please."
The wealthy businessman poured a glass of wine, and the aroma of the wine filled the hall. Everyone's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help looking at the wealthy businessman.
I saw that he first closed his eyes intoxicated, took a deep breath, then put the wine glass between his lips and took a small sip, his face turned red immediately, and drank the wine in the glass in one last gulp.
"Good!" The rich businessman couldn't help but praise, just a glass of wine, he felt light all over, as if he was about to ascend to immortality, but his mind was sober, sober that he suddenly remembered many pasts that he thought he had forgotten.
He remembered that when he was young, his parents asked him to worship a mason to learn crafts. On the first day, the mason asked him what he wanted in the future?When he was young, he replied that he wanted to build a big house for his family and one for his master.After more than a year, the mason suddenly fell ill and was seriously ill. Then, a plague broke out in the village. When the plague first appeared, his father took them and his family to move away. Later, the imperial court came to seal the village. It is said that A whole village was burned to death.
As he got older and encountered several accidents, he got married, established a career, and had children. He gradually forgot this experience and the promise he made when he was young.Although by chance, the family also lived in a big house, but his first master, who only taught him for more than a year, treated him like a parent and child, and locked him out of the door for fear of infecting him when he was sick. Master, however, was buried in a sea of flames, not even a single grave.
The rich merchant's heart shivered, his memory was as clear as yesterday, the corners of his eyes were inexplicably moist, and he said silently that I want to go back to my hometown and build a big house for Master, so that his soul can return home.
The next moment, "Thank you" suddenly came from his ear, the voice of a mason.
The rich businessman wondered if he was drunk?But he still replied: "It is the apprentice who promised you."
He fell into a mysterious mood, but the other guests were confused. Seeing the rich businessman only drank a glass of wine, they laughed, cried, and talked to themselves.
Someone said: "Just pour one glass? How bad is he for drinking?"
Another big man said: "Is this wine so powerful?"
Jing Yue just brought him the wine, "The wine is not strong, it's because you have too many things on your mind."
The big man curled his lips and muttered, "I'm just talking about it, I'm not drunk after a thousand cups!"
He grabbed the jug and poured it into his mouth, the clear wine poured down the spout, the big man smashed his mouth, his eyes gradually became a little loose, and then he laughed foolishly.
He saw that he had become a knight in the rivers and lakes, carrying a sword to fight for justice, and traveled all over the country of Zhao.During this period, he met countless heroes and heroes, and a lot of beauties threw themselves into his arms. In the end, the emperor even gave him the princess.
"Hehe...hehehehe..."
The big man laughed so that everyone's hair stood on end, but he didn't realize it.He had already drained the wine in the jug, but he still maintained the posture of pouring the wine, as if he wanted to die of drunkenness and never wake up again.
"I'm still not drunk with a thousand cups!" Everyone shook their heads.
A scholar took a sip of the wine, and his whole body felt as if struck by lightning. At that moment, he seemed to drink all the ups and downs of life, all the emotions and six desires, and became a poem in a moment, writing ten poems in succession.
There are also many guests, they just drank a pot of wine inadvertently, but they seem to have drank the world of mortals. Every sip can directly hit the most vulnerable corner of their hearts, or capture the core part of their desires, weaving fiction and reality real dream.
Xinghuacun Liquor has such a common name, but only when you really experience it, you will know that it is really elated and surpasses the gods.
As if overnight, Xinghua Village wine was introduced to the ears of thousands of households in Jin County, and Saishenxian Restaurant also attracted more and more guests, including many gentry, rich people, high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Gradually spread to the south of the Yangtze River.
In the past few days, Wan Changpeng has been in a state of desperation, because the time for making offerings is approaching, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs heard about a kind of wine called Xinghuacun, and intends to check it out. There were some subtle changes.
At this time, Wan Changpeng was throwing pots and bowls at home, cursing, and his concubine was sitting aside, and suddenly said: "Xinghua Village, I remember that Chen Jing and Chen Qin were sent back to Xinghua Village? Before, it seemed that they really heard Said they were brewing?"
Wan Changpeng was startled, hesitantly said: "It should be impossible..."
The concubine didn't quite believe it either, but now she had no news of those two bastards at all.The two have been expelled from the clan, and there will be no property in the Wan family in the future, so she is too lazy to care about it and let her eyes and ears come back.
But what if?The little concubine didn't know why, but she always felt a little uneasy, so she said: "Why don't I send someone to find out, whether it is or not, we should be prepared."
However, the result of the inquiry was quite unsatisfactory. They did not ask who made the Xinghuacun wine. Instead, they found out that the Xinghuacun wine not only tastes good, but also has the feeling of surpassing the gods after drinking it. Everyone who drank this wine All wine guests are conquered.
Wan Changpeng's worry, if it continues like this, when it really reaches the emperor's ears, their Wanchun wine will probably be squeezed out!
After thinking about it for a while, Wan Changpeng put his heart on hold, and called the steward to give some instructions.
So, ten days later, a group of hooligans from other counties suddenly came to Saishenxian Restaurant. They said that there were flies in the dishes, and that the dishes were not fresh. up.
Jing Yue took their lapels and threw them out one by one, but these people were lying on the doorway and rolling over, howling that Dao Sai Shen Xian Restaurant sold bad food, and beat them.
That being the case, Jing Yue really beat them up.
The dry howl turned into a miserable howl, and no one dared to make a sound in the crowd on the street.
This is not over yet, at night, Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi split up and found the temporary residence of this wave of hooligans, another "send warmth".So the next day, there were several people who didn't even wear trousers at the door of a certain inn. They all had bruised noses and swollen faces, and their personnel were unknown, which also attracted the yamen of Jin County.
Although people haven't seen what happened, they can somewhat guess the reason. In this way, the reputation of Saishenxian Restaurant is even more resounding, and they all suspect that there is an expert behind it.
After Wan Changpeng heard about this, he was so angry that he almost fainted. At this moment, even worse news came, that the Saishenxian restaurant was going to the capital!
The news came from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the reason why they told Wan Changpeng was simply to extort more money.
But what can Changpeng Wan do?Even if you keep cursing in your heart, don't you have to show your filial piety with a smile on your face?
Even so, things are still developing in the direction he fears most - as the reputation of Xinghuacun Liquor grows, finally even the emperor knows about it.
At a palace banquet, the emperor suddenly mentioned Xinghuacun wine, and said that the taste of this wine was rumored to surpass that of gods, and all the concubines and courtiers cheered.
Someone said: "I heard that one sip of this wine can make you fall asleep, and when you wake up, you will feel a sense of enlightenment."
"The concubine heard that this wine not only tastes great, it can also nourish the body, and even rejuvenate the body."
"There are still rumors among the people that Xinghua Village wine is real fairy wine, and the wine recipe is the advice of a fairy dream. If you drink too much, you will live forever."
……
Throughout the dynasties, every emperor yearned for longevity, and Emperor Zhao was no exception.
Someone thought about what he wanted, and said flatteringly: "Why don't you ask the owner of Sai Shenxian Restaurant to offer the wine?"
The emperor said calmly, "Be respectful to the immortals. There must be reasons for the immortals to give wineries to whom. Everything should be done according to the rules."
The person in charge of the House of Internal Affairs is the emperor's uncle, and he said knowingly: "I heard that the owner of the restaurant has come to the capital, so I immediately consulted him about the purchase."
However, to everyone's surprise, the next day, Saishenxian Restaurant sent a war invitation to Wanchun Winery, inviting Wanjia to come to Beijing to fight wine in half a month.
This matter quickly spread across the country, because the emperor was very interested in Xinghuacun wine before, someone told him this matter, the emperor said in awe: "In this case, let Liu Dashi and General Li go to break it off. , Let’s see whose wine is the best, the winner will be able to offer wine to the royal family.”
Wan Changpeng, who received the battle invitation, was covered by dark clouds. He didn't want to respond at first, and set off Saishenxian Restaurant as a grandstanding clown with a calm and breezy attitude. Who knew that the emperor actually intervened. Would he still have the guts to refuse?
But Xinghuacun wine appeared too strangely, Wan Changpeng really had no confidence, these days he couldn't eat well and sleep well, even lost more than half of his hair, seeing that the time to enter Beijing was approaching, he was helpless and had no confidence .
"Master, since it is inevitable, let's turn passive into active."
The concubine came to bite her ear again, Wan Changpeng asked anxiously, "What's your idea?"
Concubine: "Since the owner of Saishenxian Restaurant wants to challenge us, we should choose the place for the competition."
Wan Changpeng heard, yes!Wanjia has been running a wine shop for many years, so of course he knows the importance of the drinking environment. He has no way to interfere in other aspects, so at least he can start from this point!
In the end, the competition between Xinghuacun Liquor and Wanchun Liquor was decided in the garden of Yong'anhou's family, the chief minister of the House of Internal Affairs.
On this day, there was a lot of cars and horses in front of the gate of the Marquis of Yong'an, and many courtiers and their relatives from the capital came. People who have no interest in this can't be too maverick.
They had heated discussions. Some people thought that although Xinghuacun Liquor was a rising star, it was coming aggressively. Some people thought that Wanchun Liquor was even more extraordinary as a tribute wine for many years. The two sides argued endlessly.When Marquis Yong'an, Bachelor Liu and General Li took their seats, the competition officially began.
Since Jingqin and Wan Changpeng were arranged in different rooms before, the two parties did not meet each other until someone came to invite them.
When Wan Changpeng saw it, his eyes almost burst into flames. He wished he could strangle the two unfilial sons to death on the spot, and then cramp up and expose their corpses for three days.
Unexpectedly, wow, I did not expect that the people who run their Wanchun Winery behind them are really Chen Qin and Chen Jing who were expelled by him!
It was also the first time Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi saw Wan Changpeng, but they ignored each other by coincidence, which made Wan Changpeng almost vomit blood.
When a group of people entered the garden, Jing Yue found that the garden was decorated in a luxurious manner, and he guessed that Wan Changpeng had done something wrong.It is estimated that Wan Changpeng thought that Xinghuacun wine was spread like a god, and one of the reasons was that the restaurant's decoration was full of immortality, which affected the perception of the guests.Now that it is in a magnificent environment, Xinghuacun wine seems to be inconsistent in temperament and out of place, and the taste will be weakened by a point or two accordingly.
For this, Jing Yue only thought it was funny, in the face of absolute strength, all scheming was in vain.
After complicated etiquette and inquiries, both sides presented their own wines. Among them, the wine jug containing Xinghuacun wine was a plain bottle, which looked a bit shabby today.However, due to its status as a tribute wine for many years, Wanchun Wine has always followed the luxurious route, which complements the current environment.
Everyone knows that there is a word called "preconceived ideas", and this is even more so in wine tasting. Once the wine tastes on the tongue, it will affect the taste to some extent, so whoever tastes the wine first will take advantage of it.
Although Marquis Yong'an and Wan Changpeng are not friendly, they have known each other for many years, and the Wan family has always been obedient, and their filial piety has never been short. Therefore, he is a little partial in his heart, otherwise he would not have arranged the garden like this.
When Wan Changpeng saw that Marquis Yong'an had chosen Wanchun wine first, he was really relieved. Although he had expected it a long time ago, he was completely at ease now.
As long as Marquis Yong'an chooses the Wanchun wine first, the other two adults will not go against his will, they must taste the Wanchun wine first!
In this way, he has the right time, place, and people, and unless Xinghuacun Wine is really against the sky, he must win!
A maid raised her fingers slightly and poured the Wanchun wine into the cup. The fragrance was blown away by the breeze, and the garden was immediately fragrant.
"It smells so good..."
Many ministers couldn't help but take a deep breath. Some of them had tasted Wanchun wine at the palace banquet. It was quite good, but it didn't have the fragrance of today, did it?
Seeing everyone's expressions, Wan Changpeng couldn't help being a little proud. For this competition, he offered all the old wine that he planned to pass on to his family. Can he not be intoxicated?
"it is good!"
Marquis Yong'an took a sip of the drink, and boasted loudly: "The mouth is soft, mellow and fragrant, good wine!"
He turned to Grand Master Liu and General Li and said, "What do you two think?"
Grand Master Liu just put down his wine glass. He stroked his three-inch beard and said, "It's really good wine. It's clear but not thin, thick but not cloudy. After just one sip, the tip of the tongue will have a long-lasting fragrance."
General Li couldn't talk so much nonsense, so he said directly: "Give me another drink!"
Marquis Yong'an laughed and said, "General Li, don't worry, you have to taste Xinghuacun wine again."
The enthusiasm for drinking was interrupted, and a hint of impatience flashed across General Li's eyes, but he thought that he still had a task to do, so he said sullenly, "Hurry up."
General Li was a little lacking in interest at first, but when the cork of the spout was pulled out, General Li was shocked.The aroma of the wine spread, making the wine worms all over him scream, if he wasn't afraid of losing his composure, he really wished he could grab the jug and drink it first!
However, when the glass of wine was delivered to him, General Li became cautious again, picked up the glass cautiously, and took a small sip.
"boom--"
At that moment, it was as if thousands of thunders exploded in his mind. He heard the drums and horses neighing, and saw the cold light of the armored new moon, and the bloody battlefield covered with smoke and frost, and white bones!
All the past that he experienced, are reappearing one by one.
But this time, he could clearly distinguish even a soldier's emotions, as if he had the eyes of a god, and could see all the stories in their hearts.
After drinking a cup, General Li's eyes blurred, as if he was drunk, but Master Liu and Marquis Yong'an were not much better, they all stared blankly at the wine in the cup, their thoughts drifted far away.
The former thought of all the things he had done all the way from the poor family to today; the latter saw himself wearing a dragon robe, sitting on the throne of the Zijin Palace, accepting the worship of all the officials, and from then on he said the world, and all the people surrendered!
Marquis Yong'an was about to say "Everyone is safe", when he suddenly heard a loud noise, he was brought back to reality, and saw that General Li had pulled out his saber and put it heavily on the table, "Good wine! If there is such a thing in this world Immortal wine must be this wine!"
Marquis Yong'an swallowed his saliva and swallowed the words rolling down his throat. His back was already wet with cold sweat. At this moment, his lips were pale and he trembled for a long time but he didn't say a word.
And Master Liu couldn't help the corners of his eyes turning red, and sighed: "This wine will definitely be included in thousands of poems and articles, and will be praised by thousands of literati, and it will last forever!"
Things have developed to this point, and the result is already obvious.
Wan Changpeng felt like falling into an ice cellar, he didn't dare to get angry with the officials in the hall, he only dared to burn his anger on the two people nearby.As soon as the dark eyes turned around, the two looked over at the same time, and the corners of their lips curled up at the same time, even the arcs were exactly the same.
And the meaning in the smile can be easily interpreted, nothing more than to say - you lose, you are finished.
Rebel! ! !
Wan Changpeng's brain became hot, and his reason burned out. Even if he was going to be swallowed by cold water, he would drag the two of them to sink together!
"Master Hou! My lords! Xinghuacun wine is actually the recipe of Wanjia, and they stole the recipe to harm Wanjia!"
Wan Changpeng fell to his knees with a "thud" and yelled sadly, and he didn't realize what he said until he yelled out.At first, I was a little scared, but after thinking about it, the idea is actually not bad?Anyway, except for these two evils, the Chen family is dead. Since there is no proof of death, he was careful not to be afraid of being investigated, and even poured sewage all over the Chen family. Now he can say whatever he wants!
Yong'an Hou Ben was still in fear, but at this moment he was startled by Wan Changpeng's shout, and immediately said with an ugly face: "How did they steal your Wan family's recipe? Could it be that all the wine recipes in the world belong to your Wan family? No?"
Sensing the impatience of Marquis Yong'an, Wan Changpeng said urgently: "Master Hou! Chen Jing and Chen Qin are descendants of the villain's first wife, the Chen family. Abandoned by the villain. In order to get revenge on the villain, Chen Jing and Chen Qin stole the wine and escaped from Wanjia, and changed their household registration without authorization. Therefore, the villain only found out the truth today!"
With such a sudden turn of events, everyone in the garden was stunned.
"Hehe..." A sarcastic laugh suddenly sounded, and Chen Jing, one of the Chen family brothers, said: "Master Wan, you said Xinghua Village wine is Wanjia's recipe, why has Wanchun Winery not brewed it? Since you are an imperial merchant, the wine you offer must be the most precious and rare wine of the Wan family, Xinghuacun wine and Wanchun wine are comparable, is it because you can't taste it? Or are you deliberately deceiving the emperor?"
Wan Changpeng did not expect that the older son, who used to be honest and honest, became so eloquent and eloquent. In addition, he was a little stage frighted under the watchful eyes of the public. I just found out, but you stole it as soon as I found it!"
Jing Yue: "Then you have seen the wine recipe? Since you said it is an ancestral recipe, you should remember such an important recipe, right? Why don't you tell me about it? Let's compare it on the spot. Master Wan should know how to read." Bar?"
Wan Changpeng: "You—"
"Enough!" Marquis Yong'an said angrily, "This is not a place for you to quarrel!" Wan Changpeng's performance just now, fools can tell that the wine party has nothing to do with him, but Marquis Yong'an still asked out of curiosity : "Chen Jingchen Qin, where does your wine recipe come from?"
Jing Yue: "We found it by accident when we went back to our hometown and cleaned up the house." He changed the subject, "My lords, Caomin wants to sue Wan Changpeng! Once he tells him that he colluded with officials to force Caomin's grandfather to death in order to ask for a drink. Second, sue him for spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife, forcing his first wife to die, and third, sue him for using a concubine as a concubine, and expelling Caomin and his younger brother from the ten thousand families! How can such a heartless, heartless person deserve to be an imperial merchant?"
Everyone was surprised again, why did I sue my son first?Now the son wants to sue Laozi again?
You must know that the reputation of a son suing his father is not good. Although it is not acceptable for a son to sue his father first, it is still considered unfilial in the eyes of the world, unless the father is really a treacherous and evil person.
In the hall, Master Liu served in the Ministry of Criminal Justice many years ago, and he has always been fair and honest. When he heard that human life was involved, he immediately asked: "Is what you said true?"
Jing Yue: "The grassroots dare not make false accusations."
Bachelor Liu: "Why, please explain in detail."
Jingyue then explained how the Wan family made their fortune, how they forced the Chen family to death, and how they poured dirty water on her after her death.
"Back then, we brothers were kicked out of the Wan family. We had nowhere to go. We accidentally found a wine recipe. We just thought it was the vitality left by the heavens for us and the Chen family, so we tried our best to brew Xinghua Village wine. We want to share with Wan The spring wine workshop posted the battle post, hoping to clear the name of the Chen family, but I didn't expect that he would even want to be greedy for Xinghua village wine."
Jingyue made a look that couldn't bear it anymore, "Caomin is willing to disclose the recipe of Xinghua Village wine, but he will never let Wanjia have another chance to profit from Chen's wine, and will beat him up!"
Before Master Liu had time to speak, Wan Changpeng fainted when he heard a "crack".
Although he was dizzy, he couldn't stop the development of the situation. With the intervention of Senior Scholar Liu, the Yamen quickly accepted the case.
In the end, Wan Changpeng was punished for the three crimes of killing people, doting on his concubine and destroying his wife, and being a concubine as a concubine.At the same time, Wanchun Distillery's title as the imperial merchant was also taken away, and they were prohibited from using the Chen Family Distillery to make wine.
The concubine who was originally righted is still a concubine, and can only guard the family property of the Wan family. This property is not small, but it is not yet known whether it will be a blessing or a curse for a weak woman with a bad reputation.
Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi also disclosed the wine recipe of Xinghua Village Wine as promised before, and donated all their family property.This move won praise from all over the world, and the reputation of Xinghua Village Liquor also reached its peak with this case, and was finally selected as the tribute wine.
On the day when the two officially became imperial merchants, they suddenly felt that the karma in their bodies was unraveled. A golden glow descended from the sky, and the two disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving only the eternal legend of Xinghuacun Wine.

When Qin Yanzhi woke up, he found that he was lying on a slightly old altar table with burning incense candles, and there was a clay Buddha statue in front of him.
He was a little dazed, so he rubbed his forehead, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, where's brother?
Qin Yanzhi looked around, it was a small temple in the mountains, and he was the only one in the temple.
"elder brother!"
He called out, but there was no answer.
what happened?Why did my brother disappear when they came out of the illusion?
Qin Yanzhi rushed to the gate of the temple in a few steps, and suddenly pushed open the dilapidated door, a gust of wind blew in, blowing a few fallen leaves.
He squinted his eyes, only to hear a loud bang, silver lightning pierced the night, making people feel ominous for no reason.
Qin Yanzhi was even more anxious. Seeing the heavy raindrops, he ran out in a hurry, not knowing where he was going. He was very worried that his brother would be in danger!
However, he didn't run for long, but stopped slowly.
The torrential rain obscured the sight, not far away, a slender white figure could be seen faintly, Qin Yan took a breath, "Who is there?"
The other party didn't answer, but just took a few steps forward.
The figure gradually became clear, the other party's black hair was like a waterfall, and the rainwater slipped from his hair like pearls.The young man with starry eyes and beautiful face was as tall and straight as a bamboo, and his wet white clothes were tightly attached to his body, outlining his perfect figure.
He just stood quietly in the rain, with an abnormal blush on his pale face, and said to Qin Yanzhi, "Yanzhi, are you still here?"
Qin Yanzhi was startled, and ran over quickly, "Brother!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to Jing Yue, the other party's body softened and leaned into his arms.
"elder brother?"
Jing Yue said softly, "Yan Zhi, I seem to be hurt, please hug me."
Qin Yanzhi was flustered, and when she lowered her head, she happened to see rainwater falling from Jing Yue's smooth forehead, wetting her slender eyelashes like a drop of tears.
At this moment, the corners of Jing Yue's eyes were reddish, his eyes caught his mind like a hook, and his pale pink lips were round and full, making his throat tight, even in the storm, he still felt hot and dry.
Qin Yanzhi ignored the strange feeling in his heart, and hugged Jing Yue by the waist.
A pair of cool hands wrapped around his neck, Qin Yanzhi felt numb all over, and his neck seemed to be on fire, he quickly carried Jing Yue back to the temple, and then let go carefully.
"Brother, where are you hurt?"
Jing Yue didn't answer directly, but pulled a corner of his sleeve and shook it lightly, "You are tired too, let's sit down."
At that moment, it was like a feather brushing against Qin Yanzhi's heart, and his chest was throbbing. It was a feeling he had never felt before, it was strange, and he had some unspeakable expectations.
Like a marionette, he followed Jing Yue slowly to the altar.
Jing Yue turned around, smiled at him, pointed to the futon on the ground and said, "Sit down."
Qin Yanzhi sat down, and saw Jing Yue also kneeling beside him.
The candlelight illuminated the other party's clear outline, making it look extraordinarily soft, and the faint red mole on Jingyue's earlobe looked a little charming at this moment.
He averted his eyes and asked again: "Where is brother injured? You don't tell me, I am very worried."
"here."
Jing Yue pulled open his skirt slightly, revealing his fair and delicate collarbone, and then took Qin Yanzhi's hand and placed it on his heart.
As if struck by lightning, Qin Yanzhi withdrew his hand as if scalded,
