Chapter 74 Wine Glass

King Jin turned around and saw that it was Qin Zhaoxi. He nodded politely and said, "Young Lord."

Their positions are different and their relationship is average. Qin Zhaoxi would take the initiative to call out to her out of sheer anger.

It’s just over a month since we got married, and it’s too much to take the female family members to a restaurant for dinner.

Although Qin Zhaoxi did not see clearly who was on the carriage, the person who allowed Prince Jin to help him was definitely a woman, "My lord, you are so beautiful..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw someone getting out of the carriage.

Not some courtesan from a brothel, a singing girl from a Chu palace, or a young lady from a famous family, but a beautiful lady from the Jin Dynasty, Princess Jiang.

Qin Zhaoxi was stunned. He did not expect that King Jin would bring his wife to the restaurant for dinner.

The King of Jin helped Jiang Changning out of the carriage, "What did the Young Lord just want to say?"

"Nothing." Qin Zhaoxi smiled at Jiang Changning, "Long time no see."

Jiang Changning was surprised by this familiar tone. They weren't that familiar, were they?

He bowed slightly and said, "I have met the Young Lord, and the Young Lord is kind." He was distant and polite.

Qin Zhaoxi was silent for a moment, "No need to be polite."

King Jin nodded and said with a smile, "We'll go in first."

After saying that, he took Jiang Changning and walked past Qin Zhaoxi and went straight to the private room on the second floor through the back stairs.

Qin Zhaoxi looked at the two people leaving side by side quietly, with complicated eyes.

When the couple arrived at the private room on the second floor and ordered their dishes, King Jin asked Jiang Changning, "Would you like some wine?"

"I don't drink well, please help yourself." Jiang Changning was quite self-disciplined.

The King of Jin smiled and said: "Fruit wine is not intoxicating. A few drinks can keep you healthy."

"The wine in the shop is made by the chef's wife, Mrs. Jiu. It has a little wine flavor and is like honey. Mrs. Jiu said that she drinks it for beauty." The waiter promoted it hard.

"Okay, here's a small pot." Jiang Changning thought that in modern times, she could drink half a bottle of liquor with over 50 degrees of alcohol. If her body couldn't drink it, a few glasses of low-alcohol wine should not be a big problem.

It was impossible for the King of Jin to drink wine that was like honey water, so he ordered Tongshan Shao.

The evening dishes are several famous dishes from Hangzhou: fresh and elegant Longjing shrimps, fragrant and elegant Hangzhou shredded chicken, unique taste of braised bamboo shoots, fresh and smooth fish soup...

Jiang Changning picked up the pot and poured himself a glass of wine, "Grape wine in a luminous cup. You should use a luminous cup to drink wine."

"Then what kind of wine glass should I use to drink Guanwai Baijiu?" King Jin asked casually.

Jiang Changning has no research on wine glasses, but she clearly remembers a passage written in a certain martial arts book, "White wine outside the Guan Dynasty lacks fragrance, so a rhinoceros horn cup should be used. A jade cup will enhance the color of the wine, and a rhinoceros horn cup will enhance the aroma."

There was a hint of surprise in King Jin's eyes. He didn't expect that Jiang Changning could really tell the truth. He wanted to test her and asked with a smile: "What kind of wine glass is suitable for Jade Dew Wine?"

"When drinking jade dew wine, you should use a glass cup. When the golden wind and jade dew meet, you will win over countless people in the world."

King Jin then asked: "What kind of glass do you use to drink rice wine?"

"You should use a big bucket to drink rice wine. Drink it all in one gulp to show your magnanimity." Jiang Changning picked up the cup and took a sip of wine. "Wine is suitable for small sips."

"How should I drink this Tongshan Shao?" King Jin asked with a smile.

"Tongsan Soo is known as the gentleman among wines. It tastes sweet and mellow, and is suitable for savoring slowly, not for heavy drinking."

"Would you like to have a taste of this gentleman's wine?" King Jin handed the glass to Jiang Changning.

The wine in the white porcelain cup was red and translucent, more attractive than the color of the wine. Jiang Changning, who was caught off guard, reached out to take the cup.

"I'm just letting you have a taste. You want to take a glass away. Ning Ning, you can't be so greedy for wine." King Jin joked.

"I won't taste it anymore, I'll drink wine." Jiang Changning turned his head away and took another sip of wine.

"Are you angry?" King Jin came closer and asked.

Jiang Changning leaned back and opened the distance between the two of them, "No, in your opinion, am I such a small-minded person?"

"Then take a sip." Prince Jin handed the cup to her mouth.

Jiang Changning saw his intention, he was going to feed her alcohol.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Changning got his wish.

The taste of Tongshan ware is indeed sweet and refreshing, easier to swallow than wine, and does not have the spicy taste of high-quality liquor.

Seeing Jiang Changning squinting in recollection, King Jin smiled and said, "Try another bite."

"I don't want it anymore." Jiang Changning refused, "You can drink it yourself."

A flash of surprise flashed in King Jin's eyes, and the corners of his lips raised in an approving smile. His little princess was very determined.

He was lucky again that he acted decisively. If he hadn't acted quickly, his little princess might have been snatched away by someone.

The couple drank wine while the other tasted Tongshan ware. They chatted casually and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the door. Jiang Changning immediately thought of the classic scene of a gangster teasing a singer, "Something happened." He looked at the door expectantly.

The King of Jin raised his voice and said: "There is always loyalty."

The door was pushed open in response, and Chang Youzhong said with a smile on his face: "Master, what are your orders?"

"What's going on outside?" King Jin asked.

"Someone was punching and the sound was a bit loud. The guests next to them were not happy and said a few unpleasant words and started a fight," Chang Youzhong said.

Jiang Changning curled his lips, there was nothing to watch in this drama.

But yes, this place is close to the inner city. Not long ago, the emperor mobilized 5,000 troops from the Shangzhi Army to enter the city to maintain law and order in the city.

If the playboys dare to commit crimes against the wind, they will shed their skins even if they don't die. Instead of flirting with the prostitutes and causing a mess, it is better to go to the brothel to drink wine and sleep with the prostitutes.

In this dynasty, except for the express prohibition against prison officials, they are not allowed to attend banquets or greetings. There is no explicit prohibition against prostitution for other officials.

Noble princes without official rank and sons of rich families can sleep among flowers and willows at will. Elegant people often sing poems and wines with prostitutes.

Other officials can also invite official prostitutes to sing, dance and accompany wine at public banquets on statutory holidays.

So, after the couple finished dinner and walked out of the private room, they heard someone say: "...The courtesan Yuannu in the building is as beautiful as a fairy. Her songs moved the capital. I heard that she is having sex today. I don't know who it is."

I will pluck this delicate flower."

Qin Zhaoxi happened to look at Jiang Changning, who was looking sideways. He felt inexplicably guilty, "I won't go, you go by yourselves."

"If you don't go, it's useless for us to go. We will definitely not be able to compete with those boys."

"That's right, especially He Xiuqi. His skin is very attractive to the sisters. Mr. Qin, you can't lose to him."

He Xiuqi is the second son of Duke Sushui and a well-known son in Beijing. His reputation is not as good as that of King Jin and Qin Zhaoxi, but it is not bad either.

Jiang Changning withdrew his gaze and followed Prince Jin to the back stairs.

"As long as you have enough money, you can..." Qin Zhaoxi's voice gradually became inaudible.

When we came out of Lin'an Guild Hall, the lanterns were already on, and we got on the carriage. King Jin asked, "Are you tired?"

"Do you want to take me somewhere else?"
