Tian An was drunk and passed out after drinking two sips of red wine. When he woke up, the moon was already above the willow trees.
“Gugugugu…Gugugu…”
Tian An raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. "I'm so hungry! Is it dark already?"
In order to watch over Tian An, Xiang Tao, who was sleeping on the table, woke up when she heard the noise. She walked towards Tian An in a daze and said, "It's still dark! Miss, if you sleep a little longer, it will be daylight."
Tian An was shocked, "I slept for so long?"
Xiang Tao couldn't help but complain, "Miss, please don't drink outside in the future. It's so dangerous! Fortunately, my son-in-law was with you and asked Sister Xue to bring you back in time."
Drinking? Tian An was stunned, and finally remembered what she was doing before she fell asleep.
Oh my god! What had she done? She fell asleep at the table while dining with the emperor. This, this, this, isn't this a breach of etiquette in front of the emperor? She could be beheaded! It's over, it's over!
Seeing Tian An suddenly sweating profusely, Xiang Tao was confused. What happened to her daughter? Could she not have woken up yet? Was she sleepwalking?
Tian An was impatient for a long time before finally calming down. She was still at home, and judging by Xiang Tao's appearance, nothing should have happened at home. She thought everything was fine.
But after such a big incident, she felt uneasy until she got to the bottom of it. She stood up, put on her shoes, and prepared to go find Zhao Yiming to ask for clarification.
Seeing her suddenly go outside, Xiang Tao grabbed the cloak at the head of the bed and followed her, "Miss, where are you going so late? Didn't you say you were hungry? Don't you want to eat?"
As soon as Tian An opened the door, a cold wind blew in her face, making her shiver all over.
Fortunately, Xiangtao put the cloak on her in time.
Tian An tightened his cloak before saying, "I have something to ask Brother Yiming. You can go to sleep first! No need to wait for me."
Xiang Tao was startled and quickly grabbed her, "Sister, it's so late, it's not appropriate for you to go to see your son-in-law! Otherwise, let's go tomorrow!"
Tian An shook his head, "No, I can't sleep tonight if I don't find out."
Xiang Tao had no choice but to let her go, "Then I'll go with the young lady."
It's the middle of the night and the lady is at a great disadvantage for a man and a woman to be alone together. She has to follow the lady.
When the two arrived at Zhao Yiming's yard, the candle in the room was still on and Zhao Yiming was still studying.
Xiangtao went forward and knocked on the door, and soon Hong Lei came to open the door.
When Tian An entered the house, Hong Lei stopped Xiang Tao who was about to follow him in and said, "My master wants to discuss something with the young lady, so he asked us to go to the kitchen to get your young lady some food."
"How can that be? I have to follow my young lady. It's the middle of the night, how can I leave them alone together?" Xiangtao refused to leave no matter what.
Hong Lei said, "How can you just sit there and listen to what the masters are saying?"
Xiang Tao hesitated for a moment, then walked to the center of the yard and said stubbornly, "Then I'll stand here and wait for the young lady."
This way, she wouldn't be able to hear what they were talking about, and if anything happened to her young lady, she would be able to find out in time, killing two birds with one stone.
Seeing that she was standing far enough away that he could not hear the conversation inside the house, Hong Lei just said, "Whatever you want." He ignored her and walked towards the kitchen.
Xiangtao made a face at his back, then turned back and stared at the door not far away, thinking that she would rush in as soon as her young lady was in danger.
Humph! No one can hurt her young lady, not even her husband.
Inside the house, Tian An couldn't wait to ask Zhao Yiming what happened next, whether the emperor blamed him, and how the hot pot restaurant was doing.
Unfortunately, the more anxious she became, the less Zhao Yiming would say, which made her so annoyed that she punched Zhao Yiming's chest with her little fists.
When the commotion was almost over, Zhao Yiming told her what happened after she fell asleep.
She was finally relieved when she heard that the emperor did not blame her, but she still felt very embarrassed.
Zhao Yiming's parents are no longer around, and the emperor and empress are still his parents. However, the first time he met his parents, things turned out like this. His first impression was definitely ruined.
"What do my uncle and aunt like? I think I should at least give them some gifts to restore my image in their hearts." Tian An pulled Zhao Yiming's arm, trying to get his approval.
Zhao Yiming looked at her with amusement and said, "Isn't it too late for you to think about making amends now?"
At this point, Tian An looked at him resentfully, "How dare you say that? You didn't even tell me in advance that your uncle and aunt were coming to the restaurant. I wasn't prepared at all, and I ended up making such a fool of myself."
Seeing the fire turned to him, Zhao Yiming hurriedly explained, "They came at short notice, and I didn't know about it beforehand."
Seeing that Tian An was still angry, he added, "I see that my uncle likes your bottle of red wine very much. If you still have some left, give him two more bottles. He will definitely be happy."
"Red wine! Yes, yes, yes."
Tian An turned his head to look outside the door, making sure that no one would come for the time being, and quickly took out two bottles of red wine from the space.
"Are two bottles enough? How about two more?"
Zhao Yiming looked at the red wine that appeared out of thin air in her hand, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "Do you have a lot?"
Tian An nodded, "It's quite a lot for now."
There are many wines collected in the space, including various famous red wines, white wines, Moutai, Wuliangye, Xifeng Liquor, Yanghe Daqu, Gujing Gongjiu, etc. The inventory is amazing.
I don’t know what the person who designed this space was thinking, hiding so much wine.
“Is this the language you use there?”
Tian An was still lost in thought when he saw Zhao Yiming pointing at the foreign words on the red wine bottle.
Tian An glanced at the bottle and said, "Yeah! But this is a foreign language, not the language of my country."
Then he took out a bottle of Moutai and pointed to the Chinese characters on it and said to him, "This is the language of my country."
Zhao Yiming took the bottle and examined it carefully. "It looks a bit like Tian Ling's."
"The writing of our time is much simpler than Tianling's. The writing of a few thousand years ago is even more similar to Tianling's."
Seeing that he was very interested, Tian An asked curiously, "Are you curious about these words?"
Zhao Yiming said bluntly, "I want to create a set of characters that can be used to transmit secret messages but cannot be easily known by outsiders."
Tian An didn't ask why. He thought for a moment and said, "You could try Morse code."
Then I briefly introduced the Morse code to him.
"Once you master the technique, this isn't limited to just any text. You can even use knocks, footsteps, or even a small gesture to convey information."
As Tian An spoke, he used his knuckles to tap on the table in a certain pattern, making a series of sounds.
When she finished tapping, Zhao Yiming asked, "What does this mean?"
Tian An curled his lips and smiled, "It's late, you should rest."
Zhao Yiming was stunned. Just at this moment, Hong Lei came back from the kitchen with food.
The two men temporarily stopped discussing Morse code and talked about Peng Zhang and Kong Xinju's heroic deeds during the day while eating.
When Tian An heard that just two people had recharged 34,000 taels of silver, he almost jumped up with excitement.
The investment has been recovered, it’s a guaranteed profit!
