Chapter 1375: Are You Giving Others a Way Out?
Editor: Henyee Translations
The two of them were consuming a potent liquor that had been specially procured by the Qingdi delegation. The alcohol content was so high that individuals with average tolerance would beco inebriated after consuming just over half of a two-inch glass of this exquisite beverage.
Even those with good alcohol tolerance could manage only around less than one catty.
Even in Qingdi, where people generally had better alcohol tolerance, most could handle at most half a kilogram.
Among the Qingdi people, Prince of Qingdi boasted one of the highest alcohol tolerances. He could consu over two catties, outdrinking the majority of his compatriots.
He had assud that Shao Yunduan, who appeared frail and delicate, would barely manage half a glass at most. This would give him an opportunity to taunt the Great Qin Empire’s people for their inability to hold their liquor. He anticipated at least one victory to restore his reputation, right?
Unexpectedly, at the outset, the two of them had only consud three glasses…
Aside from a faint frown, Shao Yunduan seed entirely composed.
It was a far cry from what Prince of Qingdi had envisioned!
The prince was taken aback and unwilling to let Shao Yunduan off so easily. He searched for excuses to continue drinking, cup after cup.
Ultimately… it was Prince of Qingdi, who had hoped to defeat Shao Yunduan, who succumbed first!
When the truth beca known, everyone was left dumbfounded.
So individuals harbored doubts and, to verify the potency of the liquor, acquired so of the Qingdi wine for testing. Indeed, it was exceptionally strong and could easily intoxicate.
No one had a response to this revelation.
So gnashed their teeth in dissatisfaction. Shao Yunduan’s conduct was utterly unconventional! What kind of luck did he possess? While excelling in scholarship was one thing, a scholar who appeared so unassuming could hold his liquor so impressively!
Wasn’t this too much?
He was offering no respite to anyone!
Shao Yunduan was equally taken aback. He had never realized that he could hold his liquor so effectively!
The fact was, he had never been drunk before, so he had no way of knowing the extent of his alcohol tolerance. He simply felt that he could still consu more whenever he was encouraged to drink, and he never reached his limit.
When Crown Prince chuckled and comnded him as a “Perfected,” Shao Yunduan could only smile wryly.
Qiao Xuan, on the other hand, laughed along when her colleagues teased her. She understood that each ti her husband returned ho to rest, she guided energy into his body to help him recover from the effects of the alcohol, ensuring he felt better when he woke up the next day.
As a result, Shao Yunduan never experienced headaches or dizziness after drinking, all thanks to Qiao Xuan.
Seeing the effectiveness of her efforts, Qiao Xuan continued to provide her support.
Over ti, Shao Yunduan’s alcohol tolerance improved.
Naturally, he remained unaware of this developnt.
Prince of Qingdi had been utterly convinced of his defeat.
He had been the one to provide the alcohol and had personally indulged in it, yet he still couldn’t best Shao Yunduan. As a man, he had little choice but to concede defeat.
Prince of Qingdi held Shao Yunduan in high regard in every aspect.
From that point onward, Prince of Qingdi sought out Shao Yunduan every few days.
While Shao Yunduan found this quite botherso, Prince of Qingdi wished to have Shao Yunduan as his guest. When Crown Prince reported this to the Emperor, the Emperor laughed and agreed.
Thus, Shao Yunduan had no choice but to accompany this prince to various gatherings in the capital, enduring many more rounds of drinking.
