From the perspective of most officials, Li Er's steel clearly appeared out of thin air...
If not, the eyes and ears of various aristocratic families would not be completely blind...
Although the power of the Five Surnames and Qiwang is great, they only have no control over the Forbidden Army.
However, Li Er's project basically has all peripheral affairs handled by the Forbidden Army, so naturally there is no way for the news to leak out.
And so today, Mr. Pei Ji has this expression...
After Li Er finished speaking, he continued.
"Today's grand occasion is possible only because of a young master who dedicated his iron-making skills to the Tang Dynasty... Everyone... please use the table!"
"Tonight, if you don't get drunk, you won't come home, drink hard!"
…
After Li Er said this, everyone subconsciously looked at...the wine barrel next to the table!
That's right, this wine is very unique. It's not made from a wine jar, but from a wooden barrel!
This wooden barrel is extremely huge. It looks like a barrel of at least one to two hundred kilograms - that's a lot of wine?
This amount made all the officials stunned.
Your Majesty is in such a good mood. How can he be so happy?
Even Wei Zheng couldn't help but frown.
"Your Majesty, this large amount of wine may be harmful to your health. Please remove most of the wine barrels, leaving only one barrel for us to drink together!"
"Hehehe...Xuancheng, are you pretending to be like this?"
Li Er just laughed without saying a word, and Wei Zheng also had an embarrassed look on his face.
But he still said...
"Your Majesty, if you drink this much distilled wine, forget it. If you are not careful, you may be in trouble..."
"Hahahaha, Xuancheng, you will never imagine what I asked you that day!"
When Li Er said this, Wei Zheng couldn't help but be startled.
What does "what was asked that day" mean?
Wait, could it be that time at the "junior college" in the west of the city...
Almost a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and it is now the dog days of summer.
It's extremely hot.
Wei Zheng thought about it, and it seemed that... that is, Li Sheng liked the figure to be graceful and curvy...
No, why is Your Majesty bringing this up?
Then, Li Er smiled mysteriously.
"Come here, open the barrel, let's all have a drink today!"
"But be careful, this wine... is a bit special! Haha, this is a holy thing to relieve summer heat!"
After Li Er said this, Wei Zheng suddenly understood.
These large wooden barrels are not distilled wine, but... I wonder, His Majesty actually asked about the brewing method of beer??
These guys are really good at shedding wool... His Highness is almost bald, and I don't know how many other things they asked?
I feel sorry for Your Highness for a second...
But if you think about it carefully, this part of your question is the most useful information.
Hehe, my daughter Ziyu is a few years older than Li Sheng, and she is exactly the type Li Sheng likes... Hahahaha!
It's summer now.
After all, all the remaining princes, clan members, and ministers present were wearing very formal robes.
I couldn't bear it at first, but when I heard that Li Er wanted to treat everyone to a drink, they all felt a chill down their backs.
Drinking alcohol is something to warm yourself up.
If you let everyone drink heavily at this time of year, isn't this waiting for everyone to suffer from heatstroke?
Although... most of the ministers and masters believe that the Shengxiang Marquis has indeed made great contributions, and it is reasonable to hold a special banquet because of the process of issuing an edict, but he still has to drink so much wine... Isn't this a torment...
I was a little worried for a while, no matter how good the royal wine was, it was just wine.
Isn’t it ridiculous to still use the holy thing to relieve summer heat...
At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation.
"Master Pei is down!"
"Hurry and save people! Master Pei is down!"
…
In an instant, countless eyes gathered in the direction of Pei Ji.
Pei Ji, who was already very angry, heard that Li Er was actually going to openly announce the knighthood of the behind-the-scenes adviser...and drink so much wine!
Pei Ji is about to cry but has no tears. Could this Li Er be targeting me, Pei Ji...
I can’t hold myself any longer, plus the hot weather at the moment...
So, Pei Ji fell down and fainted...
All the ministers and ministers were well-read, and the scholars of this era also read some medical books.
So soon, everyone saw it.
A young official looked at Li Er with a somewhat frightened look, "Your Majesty, Mr. Pei seems to have suffered from heat stroke!"
…
"Heatstroke?"
Li Er was also startled when he heard this.
This... this guy suffered from heatstroke just after the banquet started. Could this guy have done it on purpose...
But he still said, "Come here, call the imperial doctor!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
However, although people were ordered to visit the imperial doctor, several officials nearby, especially the younger ones, were still a little scared.
The person who spoke just now continued, "Your Majesty, this Master Pei is dying and has a serious heatstroke!"
"Really? Then..." Li Er looked at Pei Ji's face and found that his eyes were closed and he was really not in a good condition.
However, Li Er did not panic.
He smiled faintly, and then said to the waiter beside him, "Open the wine barrel and fill Mr. Pei with wine!"
"His Majesty?"
"His Majesty?"
"His Majesty???"
When Li Er said this, all the ministers were stunned instantly.
Mr. Pei is already like this, and His Majesty... you still give Mr. Pei alcohol to drink???
Isn't this...
For a moment, I felt that it was a bit incredible!
But Li Er always just smiled.
Soon... the chamberlain is back!
"Your Majesty, the wine is here! But if you keep drinking this wine, Mr. Pei..."
"Pour!"
…
Li Er actually ordered Pei Ji to be given wine. Everyone was dumbfounded and insisted on giving him wine.
Wouldn’t it be possible to ascend to heaven immediately after drinking this?
Your Majesty, most of the officials and masters understand that Li Er and Pei Ji are not on the same page.
But even so, this is also a day of celebration. Wouldn’t it look like punishing the minister like this...
For a moment, whispers broke out.
And at the same time as this scene was happening, the waiter also drank the cold beer in Pei Ji's mouth...
Just a few seconds later.
Pei Ji suddenly coughed and opened his eyes suddenly!
"This... what kind of magic medicine is this!"
"Quick, give me more!"
For a moment, everyone was stunned!
Pei Ji was obviously suffering from heat stroke and was dying, but after taking one sip of wine, he actually... woke up?!
What kind of magic wine is this?!
…
Pei Ji roared loudly, and everyone heard it.
In the daze, the waiter responded quickly and immediately handed Pei Ji wine...
"Master Pei, hurry up!"
Pei Ji held up a bowl of beer that was as big as a basin and poured it into his old mouth!
The surrounding clans and ministers were all stunned...
For a long time...
Pei Ji drank a bowl of cold beer in one gulp, and then let out a long breath...
"ha……"
Then, I fell asleep directly, snoring like thunder...
The whole place was completely silent!
Li Er smiled faintly.
"How's it going, guys?"
"I just said that this wine is a holy thing to relieve summer heat. You didn't believe it. Now, do you believe it?"
