The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 268
In early summer, the wind in the capital is hot and the cicadas are noisy.

After Liu Wei returned to Bianjing from Southern Tang, he told the story of Southern Tang, including his undercover placement in Southern Tang.

After hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin was very happy. With Liu Wei's arrangement, even if Nan Tang wanted to be strong, he couldn't do it.

After the two ministers finished talking about the Southern Tang, they finally talked about the peace talks between the Liao people.

Liu Wei was in favor of peace talks, and explained his reasons for agreeing. His reasons were not much different from Zhao Pu's, so Zhao Kuangyin didn't add anything.

But after saying this, Zhao Kuangyin said: "The Liao people are hateful. Since they are here for peace talks, then we Song people must kill them ruthlessly. No matter what the conditions are, they must be beneficial to our Song Dynasty."

Liu Wei smiled bitterly: "My lord, if all conditions are beneficial to our Great Song Dynasty, then this peace talk may not be possible. I feel that in some major matters, it must be beneficial to our Great Song Dynasty, but on some small matters, We might as well make a concession."

Zhao Kuangyin is naturally not a stupid person. He understood what Liu Wei said and nodded, "What Liu Aiqing said is not bad, and it should be true. But we should teach the Liao people a lesson, otherwise he would think that we Song people are easy to deceive."

"Your Majesty, please don't worry about this. After the Liao people arrive, I will have my own way to teach them a lesson."

After the two monarchs and ministers talked like this, Liu Wei left the palace.

After leaving the palace, Liu Wei was not in a hurry to return home, but went to the Liu family winery first.

When they came to Liu Family Winery, Liu Wei asked Liu Quan: "How is the new wine?"

"Young master, I can drink it in a few days."

Liu Wei smiled: "Okay, but after this kind of wine is brewed, don't rush to release it on the market, I am useful."

"Master, this is it?"

"You'll understand when the time comes."

After giving Liu Quan such instructions, Liu Wei returned to the mansion.

The princess mansion is lined with green trees, and cicadas sing from time to time among the leaves.

The wind blew a sweltering heat, and Liu Wei found Ruyi princess beside the waterside pavilion.

Princess Ruyi suddenly rushed over when she saw Liu Wei, and the two of them had a flirt before sitting down: "My son-in-law, the imperial court appointed you to negotiate with the Liao people, you have to add luster to our Great Song Dynasty."

Liu Wei put her arms around Princess Ruyi, kissed her pink face, and then asked: "How can we add glory to the glory?"

"Conquer those Liao people and make them feel ashamed."

Liu Wei smiled: "Okay, just listen to the princess, I will definitely make them feel ashamed."

Princess Ruyi burst into laughter: "So the son-in-law has thought of a countermeasure?"

Liu Wei shrugged: "No!"

Princess Ruyi froze for a moment: "Then why are you so sure?"

"Didn't the princess make me so sure?"

"If you hate it, you will make fun of me..."

The summer wind blew slowly, and the little lotus in the pond not far away showed its sharp horns, and Princess Ruyi murmured softly in Liu Wei's arms.

After Lixia, the Liao team led by Li Yin finally came to Bianjing, the capital of Song Dynasty.

They were led to the post house by relevant officials of the Song Dynasty.

But they said that after they settled down in the posthouse, Li Yin conveyed their wish to see the Song Dynasty emperor to the Song Dynasty officials.

The officials of the Song Dynasty only nodded at their petition, said something to wait, and then left.

Seeing that official's attitude, Li Yin frowned slightly.

"Sir, Da Song seems to be very unfriendly." Lu Xue looked at Li Yin and said.

Li Yin smiled slightly: "Of course they won't be friendly. If it's as expected, they want to give us a bad blow."

"Then what should we do?"

"Lu Xue, this Bian capital is full of flowers and flowers, and it is many times more lively than the capital of our Liao Kingdom. Don't you want to go out and have fun?"

Lu Xue is so smart, after hearing Li Yin's words, she immediately understood.

"Sir, what you said is very true. We finally came to Tangjing City. How can we not have fun? I heard that there are many chess schools in Bianjing City. I will go to play some other day."

When she said the word play, Lu Xue's face showed a hint of cunning, Li Yin smiled slightly and nodded slightly.

Kaifeng House.

It was hot, and even sitting there doing nothing would break a sweat.

Because of Shen Tan's fatter body, the sweat on his face flowed even more.

Under the tree in the courtyard, beside the stone table.

King Jin smiled slightly, curiously: "Lord Liu, I heard that you have brewed another kind of wine. This king is still thinking about asking you for a few cups. Before you have time to go, you come here. gone."

Liu Wei put the wine jar into the ice bucket, and said with a smile: "Xiaguan, the newly brewed wine has just come out, and I sent it to the prince, in order to let the prince taste it, and by the way, promote the wine. publicity……"

Su, who was beside King Jin, looked at the paper fan lightly, and said, "The reputation of Liu's son-in-law is not weaker than that of the lord, and the business of your Liu family winery has spread all over the country. Is our lord still needed for this publicity?"

Liu Wei smiled: "Mr. Su is trying to squeeze me. I, Liu Wei, only wrote a few bad poems. How dare I say that I am famous? I can't say a word like the prince's."

Liu Wei's words were like flattering the King of Jin, and the King of Jin was very happy to hear that, but his mouth was a little parched after he was happy, looking at the wine in the ice bucket, he said: "Liu Concubine , I let you say everything, can this wine be drunk?"

Liu Wei put the palm of his hand on the wine jar to test the temperature, then smiled and said: "You can drink it, bring a glass."

Shen Tan couldn't wait for a long time, and when he heard Liu Wei's order, he quickly brought up several large bowls and cups.

Liu Wei chuckled, and opened the wine jar. As soon as the wine jar was opened, some air bubbles popped out of it, but there was no aroma of wine. King Jin frowned slightly. Does the wine without the aroma of wine taste good?
At this time, not only King Jin had this question, but even Su was also curious. In the past, the wine produced by the Liu Family Winery, whether it was Tanxiang Wine or Strong Wind Wine, wasn't it fragrant and tangy?
It's just that although they have this question, they are not easy to ask. After all, they are all cultivated people. Whether the wine is good or not, it is all Liu Wei's wish.

But they are not easy to ask, but Chai Feng is easy to ask.

"I said Concubine Liu, your wine has no fragrance at all, and it still has these bubbles, can you drink it?"

Liu Wei smiled: "This is not bubbles, this is hops. As for whether it tastes good or not, you will know if you taste it."

As he said that, Liu Wei had already poured a large bowl for everyone, and after he finished pouring, he drank a cup first, and after drinking this cup, he burped, and the smell of alcohol overflowed, but it was also faint. A bit boozy.

Liu Wei drank the whole bowl, with cheerful expressions on his face, which made Jin Wang and Su Tong see that they couldn't help it, and they also picked up their glasses and started drinking.

They first took a sip and felt that there was no taste of wine, so they drank it all in one gulp. After drinking it like this, they felt that their internal organs were comfortable and cool, and the sweltering heat of this summer was swept away.

After everyone finished drinking, they were all amazed.

Since ancient times, no matter what kind of wine it is, drinking it makes people feel warm, but why does this beer make people feel so cool after drinking it?
"Liu Consort, what kind of wine is this?"

"Yes, this wine is really good wine. Drink it to relieve the heat. The most important thing is that after drinking it, there will be a faint fragrance of wine in your mouth, which will last for a long time."

Everyone chattered and commented, Liu Wei said with a slight smile: "This is beer, it's only for summer, in a few days I'm going to hold a feast at the house, everyone should go. "

"Feast? What feast?"

"In the evening, everyone sits together to eat, drink, chat, and talk about the mountains."

After Liu Wei said so, everyone looked at each other, they all didn't understand what Liu Wei was going to do, eat and chat, when can't they have to wait until dusk?

But they have always known that Liu Wei is a man with ideas, and his feast is definitely not simple.

"Okay, we'll all go then."

Everyone drank beer like this, and the summer heat has been eliminated by half.

And at this time, King Jin finally brought the topic to the negotiations with the Liao people.

"I heard that the envoy from the Liao Kingdom has arrived, what will Concubine Liu do?"

Liu Wei drank a glass of beer and said, "Let them dry first."

"Leave them alone?"

"Let's just ignore them and show them off. When they get impatient, we'll talk to them." Speaking of this, Liu Wei smiled again: "Besides, we also need to know Liao What kind of people are here in the national embassy, ​​I'm afraid I will have to ask the prince to help with this matter."

Liu Wei said this casually, but it was a different story in King Jin's ears. Liu Wei asked him to help in this kind of matter, which means that Liu Wei did not establish any underground forces, otherwise how could he need his own help in the investigation ?
This Liu Wei is here to express his loyalty and innocence.

Jin Wang smiled: "Okay, this matter is a major event in my Song Dynasty. You can't say that you Liu Wei is the representative, and then push everything to you. The matter of investigating them is handled by you. If you still need For other things, just open your mouth, if this king can't do it, even if you go to ask the Holy One, I will do it for you."

King Jin was bold, and Liu Wei smiled again and again: "Thank you so much, my lord. My lord has something to say, I really want to ask my lord."

King Jin was taken aback, thinking that what he said just now was too early, and it was too soon. If there is something difficult about Liu Wei, then would it be difficult for him to come true and ask the emperor?
But the words have been spoken, and it is too late to regret.

"Oh, what's the matter, Concubine Liu?"

"Of course it's about the beer. I gave this beer to my lord and a few friends. There are no other people. I'm thinking, let my lord give me a good promotion of my beer, and what he said should only be in the sky. Yes, it’s better not to hear it in the world.”

Hearing Liu Wei's request, King Jin was puzzled.

"This is Prince Liu?"
