The Favorite of the Court of Joy

"Yo, Brother Chen and Brother Lin, you two are really mean. You didn't come to Meng Tianxiang for drinking. Are you looking down on me?" This is not a rhetorical question, but a questioning.

Mr. Chen and Mr. Lin frowned slightly, not daring to provoke him.Then, Young Master Lin smiled and said, "Brother Meng is wrong to blame us. You spend every day in Qunfang Pavilion and Shui Ling'er indulging in gentleness, so why do you still think about our brothers? Tonight we are also following Brother Li and Step Brother We came together, I didn't expect you to appear suddenly, Brother Meng."

"I heard that you guys are playing a drinking game. Since everyone is here, can you let me participate?"

Mr. Chen, Mr. Lin, wanted to simply refuse, but the other party was Prime Minister Meng's son, so they would not dare to refuse them directly, but it would be too unfair for him to participate halfway, and they really didn't want to.

Zhang Xiaoqian knew what they were thinking. In order for Meng Tianxiang to join the "battle" smoothly, he said: "Mr. Meng, this game is halfway through. It's too unfair for you to suddenly participate. How about this. You drink five big bowls first." Wine, ten glasses of wine, and then participate in this game. What do you think?"

"OK, no problem."

Zhang Xiaoqian asked again: "Mr. Chen, Mr. Lin, what do you think?"

"Since Brother Meng agrees, we have no objection."

Meng Tianxiang said boldly: "Okay, let's pour the wine."

"Wait a minute." Zhang Xiaoqian stretched out his hand, "Pay 100 taels for the wine first. They all paid it."

"It's easy to say." Meng Tianxiang took out 100 taels without blinking and put it in Zhang Xiaoqian's hand.Zhang Xiaoqian sighed in his heart, money is more important than anything else, and the most real thing is to hold it in your hand.

Zhang Xiaoqian explained the rules of the game to Meng Tianxiang, and then said: "Then let's start."

Wan Zi plucked the strings again, and the sound was melodious and subtle. Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoqian yelled to stop.Mr. Chen and Mr. Lin have already played superbly, so the loser is naturally Meng Tianxiang.After finishing the big bowl of wine, he shouted: "Come again."

"Okay, start."

Not long after, the second round was called to stop, and the loser was Meng Tianxiang again. After drinking, he refused to admit defeat and said, "Come again!"

Rao really wanted to win once, but it couldn't compare to Mr. Chen and Mr. Lin who had finished more than ten rounds.Meng Tianxiang had no choice but to drink bowl after bowl, and finally won a round in the sixth round. He was so happy that he took out two ingots of silver and threw them to Zhang Xiaoqian and Wan Zi.

There is no reason not to accept money, Zhang Xiaoqian got the silver, immediately put it in his pocket, and smiled brightly. "Come on, let's continue."

After several more rounds, the three of them still did not fall, nor did they blush. It was late at night, and Zhang Xiaoqian couldn't help yawning. Only Wan Zi had the most professional ethics. In order to present the best state to the guests, he was always very focused , Playing it intermittently for so long, I don't feel tired at all.

Zhang Xiaoqian thought, if this continues, they will have to play until dawn. If they are not drunk, he and Wanzi will die of exhaustion.No, they need to put some "seasoning" in their wine, so that this game will end early.

"Hey, Mr. Chen lost, drink this cup."

"Nana, Mr. Meng, here is your wine, drink it."

"Come on, Mr. Lin, I'll fill it up for you, drink it."

……

Ever since, in the last ten rounds, their spirits gradually declined, and their vision became blurred.The latest among the three is Meng Tianxiang.

"Is this glass my wine?"

"No... hiccup... the big one is yours... hiccup... the small one is mine."

Mr. Chen and Mr. Lin had just finished speaking, and before they even touched the wine glasses, they both passed out from drunk at the same time.In this scene, Zhang Xiaoqian specially called their entourage to come in to be a witness.

Afterwards, Zhang Xiaoqian asked their followers to send their respective masters back. Seeing that their masters were drunk like this, the followers hurriedly took them back. If they went out from such a place during the day, the masters would be angry if they found out.

After seeing off this group of "Plague Gods", Zhang Xiaoqian stretched, "It's finally over, but I'm exhausted. Fortunately, the income tonight is quite good, so it's worth it. Wan Zi, let's go rest."

Zhang Xiaoqian took out 100 taels to give to Ximei, "Ximei, thank you for bringing Meng Tianxiang here today."

"I absolutely can't accept this. I already charged you 500 taels yesterday. I won't be able to earn that much in my whole life. It's enough for me to live into my next life."

Seeing that he refused repeatedly, Zhang Xiaoqian no longer insisted, "Ximei, you should go to rest earlier."
