The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 10 The Belated Truth

Hearing what Liu Wei said, Qin Yun wanted to know one more thing. He couldn't help but think of that night more than a month ago. When he remembered what happened that night, Qin Yun's face suddenly changed. Said: "Can we talk in the backyard?"

Liu Wei smiled lightly, and followed Qin Yun to the backyard of Qin's Restaurant.

There are many wine jars in the backyard of Qin's Restaurant. After passing through these wine jars, they arrived at the living room in the backyard. After the two of them sat down, Qin Yun asked, "My son-in-law has recovered his memory?"

Liu Wei shook his head: "The memory has not recovered, but the matter has roughly been speculated, and I want to ask Boss Qin to testify."

When Qin Yun heard that Liu Wei hadn't recovered his memory, his expression calmed down slightly, and he said with a smile, "What happened that night? It's just a trivial matter, so why bother Prince Concubine Liu to get to the bottom of it!"

Liu Wei shrugged: "Maybe what happened that night was indeed a trivial matter, but because of that incident, my son-in-law was beaten up, and the sense of crisis surrounds me all the time, so it is not a trivial matter."

Hearing what Liu Wei said, Qin Yun hesitated for a while, but Liu Wei smiled lightly: "That person threatened you, so you dare not say it?"

Qin Yun was a little surprised, and suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Liu Wei. Liu Wei tapped the table with both fingers, and said, "On a rainy day more than a month ago, my son-in-law already knew that Boss Qin lied to me. My son-in-law used to often Drinking here with you, it is impossible not to know your name, but you told me your name yourself, obviously you know about the amnesia of my son-in-law, but you refused to say about the things that night, obviously because you were threatened Now, although I don't know what happened that night, I have already deduced who beat me, and it was Pan Weide, right?"

Qin Yun was a little stunned. She looked at Liu Wei and didn't know how to speak for a while.

"That night, it was Concubine Pan who drank with my concubine at the end. I think there must be a conflict between the two of us, so he found someone to attack my concubine. Boss Qin, now I want to know what happened that night. What the hell happened!"

Qin Yun was a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should say it, but Liu Wei suddenly smiled coldly: "Boss Qin is a smart man, and I don't want to embarrass you, but if you keep doing this, I can't guarantee that I won't question Pan. At that time, things didn’t end well.”

After saying this, Qin Yun suddenly knelt down to Liu Wei: "Please forgive my son-in-law."

Liu Wei was very calm, and after helping Qin Yun up, he said, "Boss Qin, don't worry, I just don't want to be deceived by others, as long as you say it, I will protect you. We still need to see each other often.”

Qin Yun's heart was in a mess, but she was very clear about the situation at this time, so she had to speak out.

"Actually... In fact, this matter all started because of my son-in-law. It was the son-in-law who stepped forward, which saved the slave's innocence. The slave family thanked the son-in-law!" After speaking, Qin Yun knelt down for Liu Wei again.

At this time, Liu Wei was stunned for a moment: "Boss Qin, what's going on?"

"My son-in-law, what happened that night is like this. My son-in-law and my son-in-law were drinking. Later, my son-in-law got drunk and went crazy. The son-in-law stood up and stopped him on the grounds of complaining to Princess Zhaoqing. Hearing that the son-in-law was attacked, the servants thought it might be because of the grudge against the son-in-law. At that time, the son-in-law sent someone to come Threatened the slave family, saying that if the slave family dared to tell what happened that night, the slave family would never have a foothold in the capital, so the slave family did not dare to tell the son-in-law what happened that night."

After Qin Yun finished speaking, tears welled up in his eyes, Liu Wei sighed, he didn't expect that this was the reason why he was attacked, but after knowing this reason, he found it very funny, and said: "Boss Qin, don't worry, my son-in-law I won't bother Pan Weide, and you don't have to worry about it. The weather is probably going to rain. After the weather clears, you can send people to my Liu's winery to install the bar. Within ten days, there must be a large number of people I came to you to buy wine, I hope we can have a happy cooperation."

After saying these words, Liu Wei got up and left the backyard. At this moment, there was a sudden thunder in the sky, followed by heavy rain. Qin Yun was startled in the living room, and quickly picked up an oiled paper umbrella and sent it out: "Thank you, Prince Consort, for your kindness. This umbrella is for you to shelter from the rain."

Liu Wei didn't shirk, and when he entered Qin's Restaurant with an umbrella and was about to leave from the door, that Chu Xikuang suddenly jumped out and blocked his way: "Your Excellency's wine is really delicious, to be honest, I'm going to I am also a wine seller, I want to buy a batch of wine from Your Excellency, I wonder if it is possible?"

Liu Wei was a little surprised, and said, "Brother Chu also sells wine?"

Chu Xikuang nodded again and again: "I opened an Osmanthus Fragrance winery in Chang'an. I brought a batch of wine and some silver to sell in the capital, and then bought some wine to sell in Chang'an. But I went halfway. He was robbed of all the money and wine by a group of robbers, and the servants of the subordinates fled in panic, and they have nothing left, so they are here to drown their sorrows with wine."

Hearing Chu Xikuang's words, Liu Wei frowned slightly, a little surprised: "Are thieves rampant on this road in the capital?"

"It's so rampant that even the imperial court can't do anything about it!"

"It's only been ten years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, and there are still four countries in the north and south that have not yet been conquered. Now the thieves in the entire Great Song Dynasty are rampant!"

Liu Wei nodded slightly, and said: "So that's the case, but Brother Chu has nothing, so how can he buy the wine?"

Chu Xikuang couldn't help being taken aback, he just thought the wine was delicious, so much so that he forgot that he had no money on him.

"me……"

Seeing Chu Xikuang like this, Liu Wei smiled indifferently: "Brother Chu knows a lot about wine, and he should be a close friend of wine. Since this is the case, I will not treat him like an ordinary person. How about this, you follow me to the winery first, and wait After the rain stops, go to Kaifeng Mansion to report the crime, and after the thieves are arrested, the winery's second batch of wine will be brewed, and then you can bring the wine back to Chang'an, how about it?"

Chu Xikuang was worried about his residence, but now that Liu Wei was willing to take him in, he was very happy and agreed again and again.
-
June [-]th is Princess Xingping's birthday.

The father of Princess Xingping is King Zhao Tingmei of Wei, the fourth younger brother of the Holy Majesty. King Wei holds an important position in the court, and he is in charge of one of the four imperial guards in the capital, the Suzaku Army, which is very prominent in the court.

King Wei loved Princess Xingping the most in his life, so Princess Xingping celebrated his birthday, naturally many guests came, except for those officials who were close to King Wei in the court, the wives and wives of the noble families in the capital also came Yes, from the moment the gate was opened in the morning, Princess Xingping's Mansion has never stopped.

Princess Ruyi and Liu Wei came around noon. After they arrived, Princess Ruyi went directly to Princess Xingping's boudoir, while Liu Wei went directly to Cao Jue.

Although it was Princess Xingping's birthday, Cao Jue was also busy. After seeing Liu Wei, he hurriedly greeted him, and said with a smile, "Brother Liu, just take care of yourself today."

Liu Wei smiled lightly: "So, I must thank Brother Cao!"

"You're welcome, you're too polite, which one of us is with whom!"

"Since Brother Cao has already made arrangements, then Brother Cao will continue to work and walk around here!"

Cao Jue was already very busy, so in order to refuse, he bowed his hand to Liu Wei and went back to work.

It was the end of summer, and the weather in Kaifeng City was not too hot. After Liu Wei found a secluded place to sit alone for a while, the banquet began.

The banquet was held in the courtyard of Princess Xingping’s Mansion. There are rockery, flowers and trees in the courtyard, and it’s not bad to be straightforward. Except for those who leave after delivering gifts, there are about twenty tables in the entire courtyard, and each table is full of people. people.

Liu Wei is Princess Ruyi's son-in-law, so naturally she sat with Princess Ruyi, and the people at their table were all princesses, princesses and consorts; after everyone sat down, Cao Jue got up and said with a smile: "Princess Ruyi Today is my birthday, everyone can come here, I and the Princess are very happy, everyone is having fun today, but I just want to get drunk."

After finishing speaking, Cao Jue waved his hand, and then the servants in the mansion brought up the wine one after another.

Each table has a jug of wine. After the wine is opened, there is a strong aroma of wine floating around, making people want to pour a glass and taste it right away. The name of the wine is Tanxiang Wine, please taste it."

When the guests smelled the aroma of the wine, they couldn't wait any longer. Seeing that the host had finished talking, they each poured a glass. After a little tasting, they all shouted that the wine was good. Wink.

The other guests didn't notice Cao Jue's wink, but Princess Ruyi, who was sitting next to Liu Wei, noticed it, and when she noticed it, she couldn't help thinking to herself, could this wine be brewed by her concubine? Bar?

Princess Ruyi knew about Liuwei brewing wine, but she was not optimistic about Liuwei, so she hadn't asked about it for such a long time, and now she suddenly encountered this situation, she couldn't help being surprised .

As the princess of the royal family, she has tasted a lot of wine, but this is the first time she has drunk such a mellow wine like Tanxiang wine. If it is really made of willow flavor, I really underestimated him before.

Princess Ruyi turned her head and glanced at Liu Wei, Liu Wei took a sip of wine, smiled at herself calmly, her demeanor was calm, and Princess Ruyi suddenly felt her heart pounding.

All the guests were full of praise for the Tanxiang wine. After the banquet, although they were ashamed to speak, they still asked Cao Jue for a jar and went back to taste it slowly. Xiangjiu, just watching the guests leaving happily with the wine, she suddenly frowned slightly.
