Chapter 310 I Really Don’t Sell Tofu!!!
"Hahahaha! I can't handle the alcohol. Uncle Cheng, Uncle Hei, what's wrong with you? Why are you lying on the ground? Are you sleepy?"
"If you can drink, stand up and drink! If you can't drink, go to your grandson's table!"
Li Xueyan's clear laughter echoed like a silver bell. Although she said that she couldn't drink much, looking at her appearance, she didn't look drunk at all.
I saw her body swaying, but she was still holding a pot of white liquor steadily. The pot reflected the candlelight and flickered with little lights.
She sipped the wine in small sips as if no one was around. As the wine went down her throat, her eyes became even more unrestrained and heroic. She completely ignored the fact that she was in front of so many ministers. She really had the spirit of a woman who was as good as any man.
Jiang Lai watched from the side, his heart in his throat, his face pale with fear.
She was a weak person and really couldn't drink much. At this moment, she watched Li Xueyan drink five pots of Xiaobaigan in a row. She was so shocked that her eyes widened, as if she had seen something incredible.
Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde are both veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time. They are also well-known for their large drinking capacity in the bar.
But today, when he drank the third pot, his legs were shaking and he could hardly support his body, so he had to sit down in embarrassment.
But now, he was lying completely on the ground.
Cheng Yaojin was already unconscious and his snoring was deafening. The sound was particularly clear in the noisy hall.
Although Yuchi Jingde still retained some consciousness, he was just holding on, and his consciousness was already blurred.
In a daze, he heard the old ministers around him laughing at him. He felt dissatisfied but unable to refute. With his last bit of strength, he slowly stretched out his hand and raised the middle finger, which was unique in Xianyang and full of provocation. Then he slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
After Li Xueyan got Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde, two great drinking savvy men, drunk, the atmosphere in the hall was instantly ignited to the extreme.
A group of old ministers who loved to watch the fun and were not afraid of trouble suddenly became furious and started to make a fuss.
Hou Junji had a smile on his face, holding the wine glass high in his hand, and the wine was rippling in the glass, as if it was about to overflow.
He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Old Cheng, Old Hei, don't you always brag about your bravery and invincibility on the battlefield? How come you've become so weak at this table today, unable to even stand up?"
His words were like pouring a bucket of oil on a blazing fire, instantly causing another burst of laughter.
The laughter rose and fell, shaking the beams and pillars of the hall, and the atmosphere in the whole hall became increasingly tense, with the noise being endless.
"Sister Yan, don't drink anymore. What will you do if you get really drunk?"
Jiang Lai couldn't help but dissuade him softly.
Li Xueyan turned her head and looked at Jiang Lai's concerned expression, a smile and emotion flashed in her eyes.
She put the white liquor in her hand aside, raised her arm slightly, and put it on Jiang Lai's shoulder.
Li Xueyan had not been so unrestrained for a long time. If it were during the Zhenguan period, her unrestrained behavior would certainly be criticized by others and lead to a lot of gossip.
But now it is the Qianwu period, the atmosphere is more open and inclusive, and there are fewer restrictions on women. She can fully release herself and enjoy this rare pleasure.
"Don't worry, sister, I can drink with you! This is just the beginning."
Li Xueyan raised her chin slightly, and a faint blush appeared on her face, like the clouds in the sky, gently spreading on her cheeks.
The red color not only did not detract from her beauty, but instead added a bit of charm to her, and her eyes revealed immense confidence.
Under the influence of alcohol, Li Xueyan looked at Jiang Lai's charming and pitiful appearance, and she couldn't help but stretch out her hand, slightly bent her fingers, and gently lifted Jiang Lai's chin.
Her eyes were full of fondness.
"Come on, sister! You're so beautiful! You're really like what the book says, 'I feel pity for you when I see you'!"
Li Xueyan became more and more fascinated as she watched, and her body unconsciously moved closer and closer. The distance between the two of them gradually shortened, and their breathing seemed to be intertwined.
Jiang Lai smelled the unique scent of Li Xueyan mixed with the aroma of wine, and his heart felt flustered, as if a deer was running around in panic.
She leaned back a little embarrassedly, trying to keep some distance, and her cheeks instantly turned red, as tempting as a ripe cherry.
Her heartbeat suddenly quickened, as if it was about to jump out of her throat, and the "thump, thump" sound was particularly clear in her own ears.
This was the first time in her life that she had been so close to someone. Even though the other person was also a woman, she was still very shy and didn't know what to do with her hands and feet.
Although Qin Ruzhao still had some consciousness at this time, he was also confused, as if he was in the clouds.
He happened to be in a position below and inadvertently saw this ambiguous scene. He felt that the scene before him was like a dream and not real.
"I was dreaming." He muttered to himself, then turned his head and continued to sleep.
Jiang Lai actually hated the smell of alcohol on a normal day, and always felt it was pungent and unpleasant. For example, the strong smell of alcohol on Qin Ruzhao made her frown slightly and feel a little disgusted.
But for some reason, the smell of alcohol on Li Xueyan had a unique sweetness that did not disgust her. Instead, she felt inexplicably at ease and comfortable.
Li Chengqian, who was concentrating on eating, had just picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and was about to put it into his mouth when he looked up and saw this jaw-dropping scene. He was so shocked that he almost dropped his chopsticks.
His face suddenly changed and he stood up hurriedly, the chair making a harsh sound as it rubbed against the ground.
He walked hurriedly and in a moment he was in front of Li Xueyan and Jiang Lai. He looked nervous, with unquestionable majesty in his eyes, and shouted loudly: "You are not allowed to sell tofu! Do you hear me!"
His voice attracted everyone's attention, and no one knew what His Majesty meant by these sudden words.
When Li Xueyan saw Li Chengqian coming suddenly, she sobered up a little and quickly pulled Jiang Lai to salute Li Chengqian together.
Even the people at Li Chengqian's table were puzzled and looked at each other, not understanding why His Majesty would suddenly run over in such a disastrous manner.
Su Zhi was even more confused, her brows furrowed, and she looked at all this with a puzzled look on her face.
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Xueyan blinked and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty! Why can't we sell tofu?"
Li Chengqian was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain the complicated reasons. He was extremely anxious, but unable to express himself, so he could only say casually: "I don't care, anyway, you can't sell tofu."
"But we don't sell tofu?" Jiang Lai said timidly, his eyes full of innocent confusion.
Li Chengqian held his forehead helplessly and sighed inwardly. He felt that this matter was difficult to put into words and it was inconvenient to explain it in public.
"It's getting late. Someone, bring Xianhuai and Ruzhao back to my room."
"Hurry up and go to the bridal chamber."
Although Li Chengqian's words left others a little confused, the young officials in Xianyang did not dare to ask too many questions. They hurried forward enthusiastically and carried the two people into the room.
Seeing Li Xueyan and Jiang Lai gradually walking away, Li Chengqian wiped the sweat from his forehead with a sense of relief, secretly feeling relieved.
It was so close, just a little bit, two of my students would have been single for no apparent reason!
He shook his head helplessly, turned around and slowly walked back to his seat.
