Tang Xueer also learned about today's court meeting from others.
The command rights of the Black Armored Guards were deprived, which was undoubtedly a blow to Chen Changfeng.
Tang Xueer was also worried that Chen Changfeng would be irritated, but she still believed that with Chen Changfeng's ability, nothing major would happen.
However, when Chen Changfeng wanted to make wine, Tang Xueer was really not sure.
If it hadn't come from Chen Changfeng's mouth, Tang Xueer wouldn't have believed that Chen Changfeng actually wanted to make wine himself.
Let’s not talk about the disgrace of Chen Changfeng to make wine as a prince, and when did Chen Changfeng learn to make wine again.
Tang Xueer was silent for a moment, then looked at Tang Lin: "Brother, if there is anything wrong with Prince Brewing, you must not say it to my face."
"Don't worry, we all have witnessed the prince's ability. Brewing is not the prince's strong point. We all understand that I will give the order." Tang Lin nodded in agreement, signaling Tang Xueer to rest assured.
Tang Lin thought to himself that as long as Chen Changfeng followed his own method, he would definitely be able to make wine.
Prince brewing wine must be for fun.
Who cares whether the wine brewed by the prince is different, delicious, or whether he brewed it himself?
"Your Highness, what is our first step?" Tang Lin walked to Chen Changfeng with a smile.
Tang Lin actually didn't care much about what Chen Changfeng needed to do in his first step.
Because Tang Lin believes that the brewing must ultimately be completed by his own craftsmen.
What the craftsmen did before and how they will do it later is to ask Chen Changfeng, just to make Chen Changfeng feel involved.
"The first step is of course making music, what's the difference?" Chen Changfeng looked at Tang Lin strangely.
Tang Lin felt a little embarrassed at this moment.
He thought that Chen Changfeng didn't know anything, but he didn't expect that Chen Changfeng had done some homework.
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot." Tang Lin kept smiling and quickly asked the craftsmen around him to prepare the grains to make the koji.
But the people stopped in front of the sorghum rice, with a look of embarrassment on their faces.
"What's wrong?" Tang Lin was confused.
"Sir, the prince is planning to use sorghum rice to make wine. This..." A craftsman dared to speak, with doubts on his face.
Not only in the Ming Empire, but also in the other six countries, rice was generally used for wine making, and the wine produced was mellow and long-lasting.
Some people have tried making wine from sorghum rice before, but what they ended up with was "horse urine" that was hard to swallow.
The craftsman was worried that if he used this sorghum rice to make wine, the resulting wine would make Chen Changfeng extremely dissatisfied.
You might even think it’s the craftsmen like them who are the problem.
Tang Lin had just thought that Chen Changfeng was joking. After all, no one would use sorghum rice to make wine unless they were really mentally ill.
This is a complete waste of time.
but……
"Prince, a long time ago, there were craftsmen who used sorghum rice to make wine, but the resulting wine was extremely bitter and could not be drunk at all."
"If the prince wants to make wine, he must use good raw materials, preferably plump rice..."
"Just do what I say!" Chen Changfeng interrupted Tang Lin with a look of displeasure on his face.
Tang Lin looked slightly sluggish and felt a little dissatisfied.
I also kindly reminded Chen Changfeng why this guy didn't appreciate it.
Tang Lin took a step back and waved his hand impatiently.
The craftsmen frowned, but still followed the previous method, crushing all the sorghum rice and pouring clean water to soak it.
It took several days to make the music, and Tang Lin was a little angry. He just waited for the craftsmen to prepare everything, and then left.
Qi Yue stood next to Chen Changfeng. Under the gauze, her cherry lips were slightly raised. She stared at Chen Changfeng with her beautiful eyes and said slowly: "You have just started making wine and you have already offended someone. Otherwise, you should just admit defeat."
What I said before still stands."
Chen Changfeng looked back at Qi Yue, unable to see clearly Qi Yue's true face, but Chen Changfeng could also tell that Qi Yue was smiling.
"No one in this world can make me admit defeat, and neither can you." Chen Changfeng said calmly.
On the contrary, Qi Yue's expression froze, and she secretly thought that Chen Changfeng didn't know what was good or bad, and he had already given in, but he was very tough-talking.
"Then you'd better make good wine, or I'll leave in a month." After Qi Yue said that, she turned around and left.
Only Chen Changfeng and Tang Xueer were left in the yard.
"Brother has a bad temper. I will go and persuade him later. Don't worry, Prince, I will do my best." Tang Xueer comforted Chen Changfeng.
In fact, she herself felt that using sorghum rice to make wine was not reliable.
But Tang Xueer could only choose to believe Chen Changfeng.
Chen Changfeng took Tang Xueer's wrist and didn't explain much.
When making wine, doesn’t it all depend on the final result?
…
"Brother, the prince is not in a good mood today, and his words are inevitably a bit harsh. Brother, please don't take it to heart." Tang Xueer returned to the Tang Mansion and stood in front of Tang Lin to explain to Chen Changfeng.
Of course Tang Lin felt uncomfortable, but he didn't resent Chen Changfeng.
Waving his hands, he said: "The prince is very capable, but he can't possibly know everything. Why does he not appreciate the kind persuasion at all?"
"I don't care. The prince has helped our Tang family a lot. Even if he reprimands me, I won't take it to heart. I'm just afraid..."
"Besides, I think the woman standing next to the prince must have an unusual identity. Sister, you have to be more careful."
"Even if the prince doesn't have other ideas, there's no guarantee that the woman won't!"
Tang Lin also noticed Qi Yue next to Chen Changfeng, so he was inevitably worried about this.
Tang Xueer shook her head. Chen Changfeng had explained Qi Yue's identity to her, but he would not let her tell anyone else.
Tang Xueer didn't care about Tang Lin's worries.
"I still have to leave the brewing matter to my brother!" Tang Xueer spoke again.
Tang Lin nodded, knowing that he was also a little impatient today.
Perhaps it was because he learned that Chen Changfeng's command of the Black Armored Guards had been taken back by the emperor and that Chen Changfeng was still so stubborn that he felt anxious.
But no matter what, since it is Chen Changfeng who wants to make wine, I just have to make wine with him properly.
"When I go back, my sister will find an opportunity to persuade the prince to listen to others and have enough to eat." Tang Lin also told him.
…
"Liu Xi, what is the prince doing in the East Palace today?" The emperor sat on the dragon chair in the upper study room, stretched, and his eyes fell on Liu Xi who was beside him.
The emperor also wanted to know what Chen Changfeng's reaction would be after knowing that he had taken back the command of the Black Armored Guards.
Without the command authority of the Black Armored Guards, can Chen Changfeng still be able to sit still?
"Reporting to your majesty, the prince is going to make wine with sorghum rice in the East Palace today!" Liu Xi said slowly, and a trace of doubt flashed across his face.
The failure of sorghum rice wine-making is a lesson learned from the past. Why would the prince Chen Changfeng make the same mistake again!
"Using sorghum rice to make wine?" The emperor was also shocked.
Chen Changfeng only said that he would have a new brewing method that would allow the Ming Empire to gain more money.
But it didn’t say that sorghum rice was used to make wine.
In the Ming Empire, sorghum was only eaten by ordinary people and was much cheaper than rice.
If it were possible to brew fine wine from sorghum rice, the Ming Empire's treasury would surely increase its revenue like crazy.
But the problem is, sorghum really can’t make good wine.
"Are you sure that the prince uses sorghum rice to make wine?" the emperor asked Liu Xi again.
"It is indeed sorghum rice. The Crown Princess's brother Tang Lin was angry with His Royal Highness because of the sorghum rice brewing." Liu Xi's mouth twitched slightly and he whispered.
"Is this little bastard really crazy?" The emperor frowned, extremely surprised at this moment.
