From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 725 Princess Xianyang
How could my own father not know, but it's all at the door, so there's no need to be so anxious.Besides, it's none of her business that the second princess and the princess are fighting, whether she can be beaten by them with all her martial arts skills.A majestic major general who leads the army to fight can't even deal with two powerless women, wouldn't it make people laugh to death if it spread.

Thinking like this in her heart but it's inconvenient to say so, Dou Kao supported her and walked inside step by step.

Although there are many people here today, the seats are all arranged in advance, so it is orderly and not chaotic.Due to etiquette, Wen Ruyan separated from them after entering the palace, Mei Xin walked to her seat and sat down, "Where's the eldest brother, where did you go?"

Looking around, most of the people were seated, and Kabuki was waiting aside, waiting for the empress and empress dowager to start playing music.

Dou Kou didn't know, turned his head and glanced at Mei Zhannan who was not far away, and said, "Uncle Wei is not here, I think he is following, Major General don't have to worry."

Nodding to show that she understood, Mei Xin poured a glass of fruit wine and handed it to her directly, "It's your favorite Lihualuo, try it."

At the palace banquet, it was not allowed to bring maids to serve, but because of her heavy body, the empress specially gave her grace, so that she was the only one among the female relatives who brought in the maids.

Standing out from the crowd, the cardamom dared not take it, not only did not dare to take it, but also reminded in a very low voice: "The major general forgot Sun Nanny's order, and the servants dare not drink it."

Speaking of Grandma Sun, I don't know where she went, she disappeared when she entered the palace, and she didn't come back when the palace banquet started soon.

"Oh" with a blank expression, Mei Xin put the wine cup under her nose and smelled it, and said, "It's been a year since the fruity aroma is so strong, you won't be able to take it back if you don't drink it, what a pity!"

After finishing speaking, he put the wine cup back with regret.

Cardamom was speechless, as if he didn't want to drink.

"Eldest Princess also likes Lihualuo?" A beautiful voice came into her ears. Mei Xin raised her head, seeing that it was Princess Xianyang, the daughter of the Ninth Prince, she answered the wrong question and said, "The princess also likes it?"

Princess Xianyang said: "Pears are sweet and moisten the lungs. It is best to drink them with ice cubes in summer. It's a pity that I get drunk and have no luck drinking more. Otherwise, I have to drink two jars of it."

Xuemei Xin picked up the wine cup and put it under her nose to smell it. It was sweet and cold, and Princess Xianyang continued, "I added a few mint leaves when brewing the wine. The craftsmanship of the wine master in the palace is probably due to his idle time. It’s okay, I changed the prescription again.”

It smells good, but I don't know how it tastes like. Is it as sweet and mellow as the memory, full of pear fragrance.

Although Mei Xin also drank wine, she didn't have much research on wine. After hearing what she said, she couldn't help being a little curious and said: "It seems that the princess is a master of wine tasting, but there are so many winemakers in the palace, how can the princess be sure? Is this wine from the hand of the wine master?"

The palace is extravagant, and the emperor always likes elegant things, plus there are many nobles in the palace, she wants to drink this wine today, and she will drink that wine tomorrow, so there are so many winemakers.Some specialize in making fruit wine, some specialize in brewing Baihua wine, some specialize in brewing imperial wine, and some specialize in brewing daughter red from outside the palace and various named wines. It is said that there are as many as dozens of people.

While putting down the wine cup, Princess Xianyang smiled and said: "There is nothing difficult in the world if you have a heart, just like the Lord Jiajing, after more than ten years, I finally kept the clouds and saw the moonlight."

Hearing that there was something in her words, Mei Xin didn't answer, and looked at her expressionlessly, wondering what she meant by her words.

Being looked at by Mei Xin's sharp gaze made her feel uncomfortable, and seeing that she had been silent for a long time and had no intention of opening her mouth, Princess Xianyang couldn't help but said again: "Although my mother came from a famous noble family, she has learned the art of brewing wine with one hand. Craftsmanship, my grandfather was addicted to alcohol, and let me learn how to make wine from my mother when I was three or five years old. There is a three-year-old wine in my house, and if the eldest princess likes it, I am willing to give it to me.”

Liangzhou is rich in wine, and she also has it in her house, but the taste is different from that sold in the market, and it is also different from the wine from Liangzhou.Her wines are better tasting, smoother and more delicate.

Since she had never dealt with her in the previous life, Mei Xin was a little puzzled and didn't know what she wanted to do, so she politely refused: "Thank you Princess for your kindness, but it's a pity that I'm pregnant right now. This is a blessing."

Before she finished speaking, Mei Jinze came over. Seeing that Mei Xin seemed to be chatting with someone, she didn't bother her. She sat down in her seat and poured wine from the pot.

Turning his head to look at Mei Jinze, Princess Xianyang said with a smile: "I heard that both the son and the general like spirits, and there are a few jars of burning knives brewed in my mansion, but this burning knife is not the other burning knife, and the taste is very good." It’s so fragrant.”

Hearing the sound, turning his head and holding the wine pot startled, Mei Jinze realized that he didn't know her at all, so he looked back at Mei Xin and said, "This is?"

Before Mei Xin had time to answer Princess Xianyang, she stood up and saluted Yanyan with a smile, "Xianyang has lived in Gucheng for a long time and hasn't returned to Beijing for a long time. It's normal not to recognize him. Please invite him when we meet for the first time. Take care."

In terms of nobility, her father is the emperor's younger brother, and she is on par with Mei Jinze.Therefore, what she did was a peer salute.

Mei Jinze knew who she was as soon as the word "Xianyang" came out, but she had never seen her before, so it was a bit rude.After putting down the wine cup, he got up immediately, and after returning the gift, he said: "The princess is polite, it was because of my stupid eyes and rudeness first, please forgive me!"

Although the Ninth Prince has no real power, he is the descendant of the dragon. His father is just a king with a different surname, so he has to be more polite out of politeness.

Princess Xianyang saw that he was polite and not at all like a rough man in the army, she smiled and said: "Master, I am serious. If I want to say that I was rude, I was the first to be rude. I just didn't get up to say hello to you. Don't take the blame."

It stands to reason that she should have stood up just now, but if it wasn't for the palace banquet today, she should avoid it as a female family member.So, it is true that she was rude first.

Mei Jinze, who is bold and bold by nature, is most annoyed by these red tapes, but right now he is still in the palace, and it is hard for everyone to say anything when they look at him, so he asks her to sit down and talk first with a slight smile.

It is estimated that he was impatient, Princess Xianyang sat down very tactfully, knowing that he likes to drink, he continued to tell him about the wine in the mansion.

After Mei Xin saw that her eldest brother had arrived, she no longer saw herself at all. The two of them chatted about the wine in full swing, and no one could get in a word. Suddenly, she seemed to understand something.

Cardamom also understood, but before she reminded Mei Xin, the Empress Dowager came.As soon as the eunuch yelled, there was no sound, and they all stood up to greet him, and Princess Xianyang left at the same time.

Seeing that the eldest brother seemed to have not expressed his happiness, Mei Xin raised her arm and bumped him, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Are you addicted to alcohol?"
