The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people
Chapter 638: Sobering Tea
The summer sun was getting brighter day by day. Liang Chongyue packed up his things and left Changshengtian. When he left the Princess's Mansion and walked around the lake outside Changshengtian, he felt that the cicadas' chirping at night was much weaker.
"I remember it wasn't this hot in Guanzhong at this time last year. Please pay more attention to the lives of the people in the suburbs of Beijing."
It was extremely hot this year, and Liang Chongyue was a little worried about whether people's lives would be affected.
Summer is the time when "Fu Yue Xiang" grows, and water is indispensable. If there is a severe drought, the people's harvest this year will be sharply reduced.
"Yes, I understand, slave."
When he rode back to the palace, he arrived just before the keys of the Meridian Gate were locked. The officers and soldiers guarding the Meridian Gate quickly closed the gate after His Majesty returned to the palace.
"Bring the food, I'm hungry too."
Liang Chongyue returned to the Yangxin Palace and took a bath and changed his clothes first. After changing his sweat-soaked clothes, he had his meal.
"Your Majesty, Her Majesty the Queen requests an audience."
Liang Chongyue had just finished his meal when Ping An came in to report.
"Please come in, Queen."
Liang Chongyue closed the book he was reading, put it aside, and leaned on the Arhat bed. After a while, he saw Li Yu'an walk in with a box of delicious food.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
"Hurry up and get up. I've already had dinner. What's in your lunch box?"
Li Yu'an stood up with a smile and walked towards His Majesty, taking out the contents of the food box.
"This is the new sour plum wine from the winery. I've tried it, and it's very light, more like a lychee and sour plum drink. Your Majesty has been working hard lately, and I think it tastes good. I think Your Majesty will like it, so I brought it for you to try."
Liang Chongyue's gaze followed Li Yu'an's words and fell on the sour plum drink. The rose-red wine was poured into the glass. As soon as she picked it up and smelled it, a faint sweet and sour aroma wafted over, and there was no trace of alcohol at all.
"Yuan said it's good, then it's certainly good, I'll try it."
After saying that, Liang Chongyue took a sip of the sour plum wine. Just like when he smelled it, there was no trace of alcohol. Only when it was sweet again, there was a hint of spicy wine aroma on the tip of his tongue.
"This is the first time the winery has produced such a soft wine. It tastes really good. Yu An is very thoughtful."
Seeing that His Majesty liked it, Li Yu'an poured him another glass. The wine, which had no alcoholic taste, tasted sweet and sour. While the two were playing chess, Liang Chongyue accidentally drank too much.
It wasn't until the corners of her eyes and eyebrows turned red that Liang Chongyue realized something was wrong. This wine, which didn't taste like alcohol, was so strong.
"If Yu'an plays this chess move here, he will lose to me. I will give you one chance to regret it."
Liang Chongyue waved the black piece in his hand and gestured to the white piece that Li Yuan had just placed. With a smile of confidence on his face, he said to Li Yuan nonchalantly:
Li Yu'an had only a few drinks today, and one pot of wine was not enough, so His Majesty asked the winery to send two more pots. Now they have already drunk two pots. The two of them exude the sweet and sour plum fragrance. Looking at the drunkenness in His Majesty's eyes, Li Yu'an knew that he had made a mistake today.
I didn't even know the alcohol content of the drink before sharing it with His Majesty. Your Majesty is a wine lover, but he usually restrains himself. This sour plum drink tastes sour and sweet like sweet water, so it's easy for him to drink too much.
"Now that the move has been made, the game is set. Your Majesty is a master chess player, and Yu An is inferior. How can you have the nerve to regret your move?"
Li Yu'an suppressed his worries and picked up the white pieces at hand. If he advised His Majesty not to drink at this time, it would definitely spoil the mood, and His Majesty might not agree. It would be better to tell His Majesty to have fun and drink a bowl of sobering tea before going to sleep.
"Okay, don't blame me for showing no mercy if you lose later."
Liang Chongyue made a move, and the victory was decided. Li Yu'an thought for a long time with the white piece in his hand. After comparing several places, he gave up and put the piece back.
"Your Majesty is powerful, I lose."
On the chessboard, the black pieces have already occupied most of the chess, like a crouching dragon, swallowing up all the white pieces imperceptibly.
Liang Chongyue hasn't played chess for a long time. She didn't have such free time in the past. Now the affairs in the court cannot be rushed, so she can only take it slowly. It is better to set aside this free time to relax herself.
"I am happy today, and Yu'an has made an indelible contribution. Come here."
Liang Chongyue called out casually, and Ping An, who was waiting beside His Majesty, immediately responded:
"Your Majesty, the servant is here."
"Go to my storehouse and get a set of Hetian jade chessboard for the Queen."
After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, he turned to Li Yuan and said:
"When you defeat me, I will give you the matching Hetian jade chess piece."
His Majesty has always been generous in giving out rewards, and a Hetian jade chessboard and chess pieces are not particularly rare. However, Li Yuan has not seen such a childish side of His Majesty for a long time.
"I thank Your Majesty for the reward. I will practice diligently every day after returning home. One day, I will win the remaining chess pieces from Your Majesty."
"Okay, I'm waiting to compete with Yu An again."
Ping'an watched the affection between the two grow stronger, and silently led all the palace servants to retreat. After leaving the gate of the Yangxin Palace, when he went to get gifts for the king and queen, he did not forget to ask Sister Yunling to bring a bowl of sobering soup to His Majesty.
"I drank a little too much today. Do you admit your guilt?"
There was no one else in the Yangxin Palace. Liang Chongyue's smiling face suddenly turned cold, and only her eyes were not as clear as before.
"It's my fault. I don't know how Your Majesty wants to punish me, but I will obey your orders without fail."
Li Yu'an also drank some wine tonight, although not as much as His Majesty did. However, he didn't drink often before, so this was enough to make him dizzy.
"Of course, you will ask the Queen to undress me and help me get to bed."
Liang Chongyue picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in it. The sweet wine went down his throat, and his body, which had just sobered up a little, soon became dizzy again.
"Your Majesty, the sobering tea is ready. You and Your Highness the Queen can enjoy some before going to bed."
Yun Ling's voice sounded from outside and reached Liang Chongyue's ears, bringing him a moment of clarity.
"come in."
Yun Ling came in alone with some sobering tea. After putting the things down, she turned around and left, leaving the Yangxin Palace to the two of them again.
"Your Majesty, you have to attend court early tomorrow. Please have some sobering tea first."
Li Yu'an got up from the bed and was about to get sobering tea for His Majesty, but he didn't expect his feet to be weak and he almost stepped on empty air and fell off the bed. Fortunately, Liang Chongyue was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and although he had been drinking, he still had this reaction.
"I'll get it for Yu'an. Yu'an has to pay his respects to the Queen Mother tomorrow. Yu'an should drink a couple more cups of sobering tea."
Liang Chongyue helped the man onto the Arhat bed, then walked towards the sobering tea that Yun Ling had placed on the table.
The sobering tea didn't taste very good. After Liang Chongyue poured himself a cup and drank it, he put all the remaining tea in front of Li Yu'an and poured two cups for him personally.
Then he didn't sit down, but just stood by and watched Li Yu'an drink the two cups of sobering tea with a frown.
