1144: Chapter 1149: Xiang Yun’s Decision (4) 1144: Chapter 1149: Xiang Yun’s Decision (4) “Before?”
The man paused, his mind flashing with the mory of their first eting, the vast white snow-covered mountain, the maiden briskly walking on the mountain…
Back then, she was thin and pale, her clothes tattered.
In his eyes, she was rely a child.
Because she slled of Blue Snow Lotus and knew a bit of martial arts, and later, she even joined forces with that white-haired Giant Tiger, he couldn’t even be bothered to spare her a glance.
However, it was only after he had seen the flower tea brought by her mother that he realized this girl was not just any ordinary girl.
Then ca the chance etings in the town, the poem competition at the inn, and her righteous act of coming to his rescue.
It was impossible for him not to take notice of her.
When he left Qingyun Town, he gave her a Night Pearl, implying that she shouldn’t simply marry anyone in the countryside, perhaps he had already taken a liking to her by then, just unaware of it!
“Co on, what did you feel about before?” Seeing the retrospective confusion on the man’s face, Cai Wei shook his sleeve, relentlessly pressing him for an answer.
Nangong Yi paused for a mont, laughed, and said, “Back then, the impression you gave off was that of a mischievous Little Monkey, always up to so prank!”
Cai Wei knew he was referring to the ti she secretly wrote on his back, and she arrogantly tilted her chin up, huffing, “It’s your own fault for always bullying back then.
People clearly saved your life, yet you were ungrateful and even threatened them, hmph, consider yourself lucky I didn’t write that ‘cheap’ word on your face!”
“Madam speaks the truth, it was all this husband’s fault.
When the liquor is served, I shall punish myself with three cups as an apology to Madam, how about that?”
Nangong Yi appeased her with a smile, patiently coaxing his fuming little wife.
As he was pacifying her, Yang Yong led a procession of palace attendants over.
In front were six palace maids holding palace lamps, followed by six little palace maids carrying food boxes, and behind them, sixteen eunuchs carrying the massive Dragon Carriage and a group of old palace maids and other attendants…
The large procession halted in front of Cai Yue Pavilion, and Yang Yong personally brought over a tray, placing the white jade wine pot and jade cups onto the stone table in the center of the pavilion.
He smiled and said, “This servant feared the Emperor and Empress would find the liquor dull, so I’ve carefully prepared so fruit to accompany your drinks.
Please, Your Majesties, feel free to indulge, and drink as much as you please.
Later, you can return by Dragon Carriage…”
As he spoke, he gestured and the six palace maids with food boxes placed the fruits from their boxes onto the stone table in front of the Emperor and Empress.
The fruits were one thing, but the mont the liquor was placed upon the stone table, a captivating fragrance wafted out, surpassing any fine wine she had ever tasted, even besting the wine made from Lingxi River water in Space!
“What kind of liquor is this, why does it sll so good?”
Cai Wei sniffed and leaned closer to the wine pot!
The man took the pot and poured a cup in front of Cai Wei, “This is the centennial Osmanthus brew, and in the entire palace, only half an earthen jar remains now.
Give it a try quickly!”
Cai Wei picked up the cup, sipped lightly, and exclaid while slapping the table, “Mmm, indeed, it’s a centennial fine wine, a taste that lingers endlessly, like drinking sweet dew, truly delectable.
I’ve never tasted anything more fragrant than this!”
Saying so, she downed the cup in one gulp.
A scheming smile flickered in Nangong Yi’s eyes.
He said, “This wine was brewed by order of the founding Emperor of the Great Jin Nation to commorate its establishnt.
It’s made from the early morning Osmanthus blossoms and the dew gathered from within the petals, and buried deep under the Osmanthus Tree.”
