The capital is where the world lives.
Wang Xuance raised his glass with both hands and said to Liu Zhi, "Mr. Wenshan, His Majesty once said, 'In life, the only things worth cherishing are fine wine and beautiful women.' With such a fine wine before us, shouldn't we drink it first and talk about other things later?"
Liu Zhi was startled when he heard this, then he laughed out loud, "Good wine and beautiful women should not be wasted. Haha, it really is the words of a foolish ruler.
But...it's very satisfying to me!"
After saying that, he unceremoniously picked up the wine glass in front of him, shook it, and then drank it all in one gulp.
He seems to be completely unafraid of poison in the wine.
Instead, they clapped their hands and exclaimed in praise: "Good wine, really good wine!
Come, fill me up!"
Wang Xuance didn't care and was not angry about Liu Zhi's title of "tyrant" because he knew that Zhao Xin didn't care about the title of "tyrant" at all.
He just smiled and drank the wine in the glass.
Qiao Sanniang was holding the kettle beside them. Seeing this, she smiled sweetly and stepped forward to fill each of their glasses. Then she smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Liu.
However, this wine in our shop is originally brewed secretly in the palace, and was personally improved by His Majesty. I am afraid that simply saying "fine wine" is not enough to describe it, right?"
After saying this, he gently pushed the filled wine cup forward and said, "Please taste it carefully, sir. It should be very delicious."
Liu Zhi's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this. He turned to look at Qiao Sanniang, and after a moment he laughed as if he had suddenly realized something. "Haha, so that's how it is. I was wondering why such a shockingly luxurious place suddenly appeared in Qinjing.
How dare you choose such an ambitious name.
Haha, Tianxiaju, Tianxiaju, not bad, what a good name! "
After saying this, Liu Zhi laughed again.
He slowly took another sip of the wine in the glass, then closed his eyes slightly and savored it carefully.
"Good wine, no, divine wine!"
Liu Zhi nodded and praised again.
"but……"
As he spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked across at Wang Xuance, who was playing with his wine glass, with a half-smile, "I'm afraid I won't be able to leave this restaurant today, am I?"
"How could that be?"
The person who answered was not Wang Xuance, but Qiao Sanniang.
The latter said with a sweet smile: "This is a restaurant, not a prison, so how can it be allowed to enter but not to leave?
Are you planning to get drunk and die here with me so that I can get sued?"
After saying that, he covered his mouth and chuckled.
Liu Zhi was also smiling, but his eyes were only looking at Wang Xuance.
The latter spread his hands and said with a smile: "Don't look at me, I brought you here only because of Sanniang's order."
"oh?"
Liu Zhi was quite surprised to hear this. He couldn't help but look at Qiao Sanniang again, then said with a half-smile, "So Sanniang, you invited me here just to taste the fine wine, right?"
"Why not?"
Qiao Sanniang smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Wenshan is a distinguished scholar in the capital. I have some fine wine, so why not offer it to him?"
"Of course, if Mr. Wenshan is willing, I do have a small matter I would like to ask you."
Qiao Sanniang said again.
"A small matter?"
"It's a small matter."
"Then please tell me, Miss San, what kind of trivial matter is it?"
Liu Zhi asked with a sneer.
"I, under the order of Your Majesty, manage the goods for Your Majesty and benefit the world."
Qiao Sanniang spoke calmly, but her expression was no longer as charming as before. Instead, she had an elusive aura, and her conversation moved Liu Zhi slightly.
"Manage goods value and serve the world", these eight short words imply a great ambition to conquer the world.
Such a broad mind is not common in ordinary men, and it is surprising that a woman can also have such courage.
Liu Zhi couldn't help but secretly marvel.
What made him even more concerned was that Emperor Zhao Xin actually entrusted such an important matter to such a woman.
What a broad mind and trust.
For a moment, Liu Zhi felt a little jealous.
But Qiao Sanniang continued, "Well, firstly, I am a woman, and my abilities are limited. Secondly, the world is in turmoil, with all kinds of chaos and turmoil. Outside, there is the rebellion of the Seven Kings, and inside, there are powerful traitors in power.
As a result, the people are in dire straits and the world is in decline.
When my Lord saw this, he was deeply worried.
Although I am dull, I also want to cling to Your Majesty's side, but I am afraid that time is running out, so I would like to ask for your help!"
After saying this, she bowed to Liu Zhiying.
Although Liu Zhi was shocked when he heard this, he couldn't help but sneer, "Miss San, do you really want me to drive you around?"
"How dare you!"
Qiao Sanniang said sternly, "Sir, your talent is obvious to all, and I dare not underestimate your ambition. The only one in the world who dares to command you is your Lord and Majesty.
What virtue and ability does Sanniang have?"
Although Liu Zhi disagreed, his expression softened slightly, and he asked again, "In that case, what does Sanniang need my help with?"
"I want all the information about Cui's trade routes!"
Qiao Sanniang said calmly but firmly.
"presumptuous!"
Liu Zhi became furious upon hearing this. He slammed the table in front of him and stood up.
Because he used too much force, the wine glasses and dishes on the table jumped up.
Wine and vegetable juices were flowing everywhere.
Liu Zhi, however, seemed to feel nothing. He looked at Qiao Sanniang coldly, then laughed in anger, "What a trivial matter, slut, are you teasing me, Liu?"
Wang Xuance was originally just sitting aside, drinking by himself.
Even if Liu Zhi slammed the table and stood up, he did not show any reaction.
But when Wang Xuance heard Liu Zhi call her a bitch, his eyes narrowed.
Qiao Sanniang didn't care at all. Instead, she signaled him not to meddle in it. Then she calmly picked up a new wine glass from the side and filled it again.
