Damn it, Ao Bai is so greedy!
He actually carried away the entire bucket of "tomato and egg drop soup"!
Li Huan had originally planned to add "Five Poisons Powder" to the soup, but now the opportunity had been lost.
However, Li Huan had a backup plan.
Following behind Ao Bai, Li Huan quietly opened the Coca-Cola bottle, put the "Five Poisons Powder" into the bottle, quickly tightened the cap, and shook it a few times.
Return to the hall.
Upon seeing Ao Bai carrying a soup bucket, Kangxi was greatly surprised: "Grand Tutor Ao, why did you bring a soup bucket with you!"
Ao Bai laughed and said, "Hahaha, there are no big bowls, only small cups. This humble subject finds it troublesome and will just drink the soup from the whole bucket!"
Li Huan said, "Lord Ao is incredibly magnanimous, his spirit is truly awe-inspiring!"
Ao Bai placed the soup bucket in front of him, laughed wildly, sat down, and began to eat his boxed lunch.
Li Huan first placed two bottles of cola in front of Kangxi, and then opened one of the cola bottles containing "Five Poisons Powder".
Emperor Kangxi asked curiously, "What kind of wine is this?"
Li Huan said, "Your Majesty, this is not wine, but sugar water."
Emperor Kangxi picked up the can of cola and examined it carefully.
"Inside the bottle...it seems to be...brown sugar water..."
Li Huan said, "It's not brown sugar water, it's Coca-Cola!"
"Coca-Cola?" Emperor Kangxi became very interested.
Li Huan said, "This kind of sweet soup from overseas countries not only tastes delicious, but it can also change your mood after drinking it, so it's called Coca-Cola!"
Emperor Kangxi laughed and said, "Pour me a cup!"
Li Huan quickly poured himself a glass of cola.
Emperor Kangxi observed: "Coca-Cola, like beer, also produces foam!"
Li Huan said, "It's precisely because of the foam that it feels so refreshing when you drink it!"
Emperor Kangxi picked up the cola and took a big gulp.
"Haha, it's so refreshing, cool and sweet!"
Li Huan seized the opportunity to say, "Just now, Lord Ao said that this kind of sweet soup is something only women drink!"
Kangxi said, "Does Junior Guardian Ao mean that I resemble a woman?"
Ao Bai quickly put down his chopsticks, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I had no intention of mocking you."
Emperor Kangxi said, "This Coca-Cola from overseas is far more delicious than brown sugar water! Junior Guardian Ao, you should try it!"
Ao Bai had dietary restrictions: he could not drink alcohol, eat greasy or spicy food, but he could drink sugar water.
Therefore, Ao Bai could not refuse and replied with a smile, "Your humble servant obeys!"
Li Huan reached out and took a bottle of Coca-Cola from in front of Kangxi, placing it in front of Ao Bai.
This bottle of cola contains "Five Poisons Powder".
Ao Bai believed that Li Huan's presentation of two bottles of Coca-Cola to the Emperor must not have been poisoned.
Besides, the Emperor has already drunk the cola.
He never expected that the cola placed in front of him had been laced with "Five Poisons Powder" by Li Huan.
Ao Bai picked up the Coke and stared intently at it.
He stuck out his thumb and pressed it against the bottle cap, trying to pry it open.
Li Huan laughed out loud: "Haha, Lord Ao, you still want to use your finger strength?"
Ao Bai said, "It's just a trivial skill."
He suddenly exerted his strength.
To everyone's surprise, the bottle cap didn't budge.
Just as Li Huan unscrewed the cap of another Coke bottle, Ao Bai was eating his food and didn't notice how Li Huan opened the bottle.
Therefore, it was a complete waste of effort for Ao Bai to try to pry open the tightly screwed-on plastic bottle cap with his thumb.
Li Huan deliberately praised, "Lord Ao, what excellent finger strength!"
Ao Bai's face turned bright red.
He found it both strange and ugly.
Why is this bottle stopper so secure that it's impossible to open with my thumb?
Ao Bai refused to believe it and continued to push the Coca-Cola bottle cap with his thumb.
It remained completely still!
Wei Xiaobao laughed and said, "This stopper is so sturdy, you should bite it with your teeth!"
In front of Emperor Kangxi, Ao Bai refused to be outdone and stubbornly continued to use his thumb to push up the bottle cap.
That attempt to show off was so awkward!
Ao Bai's face turned even redder, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Li Huan said, "Lord Ao, did you drink too much of the imperial physician's medicine, causing your internal heat to be depleted, resulting in insufficient strength?"
Ao Bai hurriedly wiped away his sweat and said sullenly, "Perhaps so. The imperial physician's medicine is too potent..."
Li Huan walked up to Ao Bai, extended his hand, and said, "Let me help Lord Ao open the Coke bottle!"
Ao Bai reluctantly said, "Thank you for your trouble, Lord Li!"
Li Huan took the Coke, gripped the bottle neck in his palm, tightened his grip, twisted his wrist, and quickly unscrewed the cap.
Pfft!
A stream of foam shot out from the bottle and flew towards Ao Bai!
In an instant, Ao Bai was caught off guard and got sprayed in the face with cola foam, leaving him in a very sorry state!
Li Huan hurriedly said, "Lord Ao, please forgive me! I didn't mean to! It's just that you were shaking the cola around, and it got too fizzy, so it sprayed out foam!"
Ao Bai hurriedly wiped his face with his sleeve.
Anger flashed in his eyes, but he waved his hand dismissively, feigning magnanimity.
"Lord Li acted unintentionally, how could I blame him?"
Li Huan handed the cola to Ao Bai: "Lord Ao, please have a taste!"
Ao Bai held the Coca-Cola bottle, staring at the foam at the bottle opening, then looked at Kangxi.
"Young Master Ao, try it! It tastes sweet!"
After Kangxi finished speaking, he tilted his head back and drank a glass of cola.
Ao Bai completely lowered his guard, picked up the Coke bottle, and slowly took a sip.
It was cool and refreshing, sweet and delicious, and instantly won over Ao Bai's taste buds.
"Mmm...it's really delicious, so delicious..."
Ao Bai praised him a few times, then took another big gulp.
Seeing this, Li Huan took a few steps back and winked at Kangxi.
Emperor Kangxi understood immediately and knew that Li Huan had poisoned the cola.
