Chapter 42: The Gift of Wine

Seeing him like this, Heshen felt very satisfied and felt that this gift was a success.

As long as Your Majesty appears curious, doesn’t that mean he is becoming interested?

As long as your Majesty is interested... everything will be easy to say.

On the other side, after the water in the cup leaked, Li Gan added water again.

This time, he let the water surface stop accurately under the dragon head, and indeed there was no more water leakage.

"Magic, this thing is indeed magical."

Li Gan handed the kettle to the eunuch beside him, curiously picked up the white jade cup, and looked at the structure of the entire cup.

There is a small hole at the bottom of the cup, and the water just now flows out from it.

Heshen smiled like a big peony flower, and came forward again: "Your Majesty, what do you think of this thing?"

Li Gan stared at the small hole at the bottom of the cup and asked curiously: "Can the Heqing family know where the mystery of this thing is?"

"this……"

Heshen's expression was stunned: "Your Majesty... I got this Jiulong Cup by chance, but I don't know the principle. The production skills of the Jiulong Cup have long been lost, and it is difficult for craftsmen to imitate..."

"Oh?" Li Gan turned his head and looked at him with a smile: "So, what the Heqing family sent to me is the only one in the world?"

Heshen replied with a flattering smile: "As long as Your Majesty likes it, it doesn't matter if you are alone."

“Hahaha~”

Li Gan walked forward and patted his shoulder with a smile: "The Heqing family is indeed a wonderful person..."

Heshen nodded repeatedly, his smile even brighter.

The king, the sage, the ministers are in harmony.

However, Li Gan also understood that if you have nothing to do, you will either be traitor or steal. Therefore, before collecting things, you must find out Heshen’s real purpose. It would be fine if you want to steal, but if it were the former, Li Gan would never agree.

He changed his voice and looked at Heshen curiously: "But... Heqing's family, what does it mean to give me this Jiulong Cup?"

"Does... ask me for help? What do you want me to do?"

“No, no…”

Heshen waved his hand quickly and said, "Your Majesty, I really have no other intentions, I just mean it."

Li Gan raised his eyebrows, do you want me to specifically understand what you mean?

Heshen pinched his thigh and quickly changed his words: "Your Majesty is busy with all his affairs every day, and he is working hard on the government. I can't bear to work so hard on your Majesty, so I sent the Jiulong Cup, which is also a place to relax in your spare time..."

"So that's it." Li Gan nodded slightly.

If you are suspected of banging, just stop it so as not to scare Heshen, the little fat sheep.

Today I will encourage him!

Li Gan patted Heshen on the shoulder, revealing a little emotion: "After several ministers, no one of them can be as loyal as the Heqing family, and can understand my worries."

Heshen finally breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself that it would be great that you could think so.

Today's Kowloon Cup was not given for free.

Of course, although I think so, the scenes have to be better.

Heshen leaned over and said modestly: "The other adults are also concerned about Your Majesty's dragon body, but they are not as good as me... "

"Okay, OK."

Li Gan waved his hand, with displeasure on his face, and pulled Heshen to the table beside him: "If you don't mention those people, since Heqing's family has sent the Jiulong Cup today, how can you not use it?"

"Great companion, come and get the wine. I want to have a drink with Heqing's family."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Zhongxian bowed and responded, and soon brought the wine pot over, and even asked the eunuchs to serve a few more exquisite side dishes with wine.

Of course, I still divided two plates and sat on two tables.

But even so, I smiled happily with the adults and brightly.

Today, not only was His Majesty given a banquet, but he also drank wine together. His Majesty is kind to you.

In this way, even if Yan Song's actions of becoming a saint at the court meeting, he could not be so ugly in terms of his face.

Of course, Heshen also knew that there would definitely not be too many favors to drink together.

This time, because His Majesty suddenly got the fresh item of Kowloon Cup, and there was a reason to drink fresh ones inside.

If you want to replicate it in the future... then you can only continue to send it.

When Heshen was planning, Wei Zhongxian had already poured wine aside. The clear wine was just under the head of the cup, and there was no wine leak.

The old eunuch also saw some tricks just now.

However, when Li Gan was about to get the cup, Wei Zhongxian said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, please let me try the poison for you first."

"Um?"

Li Gan raised his head and looked at him in confusion: "Big partner, isn't this the wine you brought?"

Wei Zhongxian looked at the Jiulong Cup and said hesitantly: "Although it was the wine brought by me, this wine vessel is not my servant. The mechanism of this Jiulong Cup is complicated. If there is poison hidden in it..."

Li Gan was stunned.

No matter when, Wei Zhongxian can always find a suitable reason to test the poison.

On the other side, the smile on Heshen's face froze.

The wine vessel hides poison and plots to murder His Majesty?

Good guy, who can withstand such a crime?

However, since he made up his mind to please His Majesty, people like Wei Zhongxian should not offend him.

He felt wronged like a 200-pound child, but he was hard to tell.

Fortunately, Wei Zhongxian is also a smart person, and then explained: "Mr. He will not have the intention to murder Your Majesty. However, Mr. He has also obtained the Nine Dragon Cup for the first time. It is difficult to know whether the previous lord is a ghost of thought..."

Heshen was stunned, then stood up as he walked down the slope and bowed to Wei Zhongxian with emotion: "Thank you, Eunuch Wei. If Eunuch Wei hadn't reminded you, you might have made a big mistake today."

"If your Majesty has a bad fortune, I will be punished for my death! This poison should be tried, and it should be tried."

Although his expression was normal with the adults, his heart suddenly stumbled, and a little guilty feeling surged.

Wei Zhongxian casually gave an excuse, but he didn't expect to guess the truth.

Since he got the Kowloon Cup, he has never used it before and has been put in the warehouse to eat ashes.

What's new about a Kowloon Cup with merely a Kowloon Cup?

But it is different now to His Majesty. If something happens, Heshen will not even be able to wash it even if he jumps into the Yellow River.

Li Gan didn't know what he was thinking, but felt that what Wei Zhongxian said was somewhat reasonable, so he waved his hand helplessly: "Let's try it out quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wei Zhongxian first tried Li Gan's wine glass with a silver needle. Seeing that the silver needle did not change color, he then took a sip himself. After a long time, he poured out the wine in the glass, washed the cup, and poured another glass for His Majesty the Emperor.

Heshen looked at him from the side, but only got a glimpse of Eunuch Wei.

Although he only has one look, his information is extremely rich: Don’t be too arrogant, only His Majesty can enjoy this kind of treatment!

I was crying and I couldn't cry, but since Wei Zhongxian's call, he began to be scared. Could this cup be poisonous?

Eunuch Wei, just tick it?

However, Eunuch Wei was serving His Majesty the Emperor wholeheartedly, and even without service, he could not hear what he was saying.

On another table, Li Gan had already picked up the wine glass and smiled at him: "Come on Heqing's family!"

Heshen couldn't stand it anymore, so he squeezed out a smile on his face and picked up the wine glass with his teeth.

You have to drink it if you don’t drink it!
