Chapter 5 Distilling Fine Wine

In the next few days, Liu Yao studied and studied with Cai Yong every day, and from time to time, a poem appeared, which shocked the old master called him a genius, or abused this old man on the chessboard, making him scream. Time passed slowly.

Finally, one night fifteen days later, the time for the description on the drawings was already up. Liu Yao couldn't wait to open the large jar, looked at the clear wine inside, smelled the scent of the wine that was coming to his face, and couldn't help swallowing.

Liu Yao picked up a copper spoon, scooped it up and drank it in one sip.

"Puff!! Hi, Hi, spicy, so spicy." Liu Yao squirted out in one sip, constantly sticking out his tongue to relieve the spicy feeling, and tears flowed down. What Liu Yao didn't know was that he was not an adult tested by alcohol, but a child. The child's taste was still open and he could not adapt to high-alcohol liquor.

After a long time, the spicy feeling in Liu Yao's mouth was relieved, and his face was full of wry smiles, "How come it is so spicy? Why didn't you feel it when you drank it in your previous life?" But then he changed the depression on his face and became full of excitement. "But it's right, spicy means that the degree of this wine is very high. It means that his brewing this time has been completely successful."

Liu Yao immediately divided a large jar of wine into twenty prepared jars. After so much work, Liu Yao felt a little tired and jumped onto the bed. "I'll find a way to go to the teacher tomorrow and I'm going to start preparing." Liu Yao murmured to himself, and then he soon fell asleep.

The next day, Liu Yao ordered two guards to carry ten jars of wine to go to see his father.

The group of three people came to Nangong, and an eunuch immediately went to inform Emperor Ling of Han.

In the Nangong, Emperor Ling of Han was in the middle of the palace maids. "Report to Your Majesty, Your Highness, the eldest prince, is asking for a visit."

"See, haha, beauty, come... wait, who did you just say?"

"Your Majesty, it's Your Highness, Your Highness," the eunuch said in a low voice.

At this time, Emperor Ling of Han suddenly reacted, "You all go down." He drove away all the palace maids, leaving only Zhang Rang, one of the ten regular attendants. Then Emperor Ling tidied up his somewhat messy clothes and said, "Let the emperor come in."

Liu Yao, who was allowed, walked into the Nangong alone. "The child pays homage to his father."

"Son of the Emperor, what's going on today?" asked Emperor Ling.

"Your Majesty, the child has got some good wine from the teacher, so I want to give it to your father." Liu Yao said with a smile.

"Oh, good wine!! Where is it? Come and try it for me." Liu Hong's eyes suddenly shone when he heard the good wine.

Liu Yao made a gesture, and the two guards standing outside the door moved all in, and then they retreated respectfully. At this time, Zhang Rang took the initiative to bring a jar of wine and opened the seal of the jar. The fragrance of wine suddenly drifted out.

Liu Hong greedily smelled the wine, "Yeah!!! What a fragrant wine, just smelling it, you know it's a good wine. Come and try it for me." Liu Hong's face was full of anxiety.

Zhang Rang scooped a spoonful of wine into the wine bottle, and respectfully handed it to Liu Hong, "Your Majesty, please use it."

Liu Hong couldn't wait to finish the wine bottle and drank it in one gulp.

"Ahem." Liu Hong had never drunk such a strong alcohol before, and was choked all of a sudden. "Your Majesty, are you okay?" Zhang Rang asked nervously.

Liu Hong waved his hand, "It's okay, I'm fine, but I didn't expect this wine to be so strong. It's indeed a good wine. I've never drunk such a good wine in my life." As he said that, Liu Hong did it himself, scooped a spoonful of wine, learned his lesson this time, and began to taste it slowly.

"Haha, good wine, good wine, but a little less." Liu Hong looked at the ten jars of wine in front of him, a little dissatisfied. Then he looked at Liu Yao, "Son, these wines are all obtained from Cai Boyi."

"Yes, Father, these wines were brewed by a friend of the teacher, but the stock is not large." Liu Yao said.

"Yeah? Isn't there a lot of stock? Then won't I not be able to taste such fine wine every day in the future?" Liu Hong frowned and looked dissatisfied.

Liu Yao's eyes flashed with a gleam, "I want to leave the palace, but I want to stay at the teacher's house for a few days, and I can also help you ask for more good wine to honor your father."

"Hahaha, I am worthy of being my prince. I am sure. You don't need to inform me if you leave the palace in the future." Liu Hong looked at his "filial" prince with great satisfaction. Then he said, "However, although he is in Luoyang, he still needs to send some guards to protect you."

"No need, no need, no need, who else dares to offend the emperor in Luoyang? Besides, will so many guards disturb the teacher?" Liu Yao hurriedly waved his hand to object. If so many guards follow him, he would still have room to do his own thing."

"No!!! It must be there, otherwise I can't help you out of the palace." Liu Hong said sternly, but then his tone changed, "But what you said makes sense, it is indeed not convenient to have guards."

Liu Hong thought for a long time and turned his head to Zhang Rang and said, "Let your father, go and call the imperial master."

"No, Your Majesty." Zhang Rang said, then he quickly walked out and announced his order.

"Imperial Master?!! Who will it be? I am qualified to be an imperial master? Why don't I remember this person?" Liu Yao kept thinking about who this imperial master would be.

After half a stick of incense, a middle-aged man with sword eyebrows, starry eyes, tiger back and bear waist walked in, "Grass Min Wang Yue, pay homage to Your Majesty."

"It's him!!" Wang Yao was shocked. It turned out to be the swordsman of Emperor Ling. No wonder he didn't remember it before. Wang Yue, a contemporary hero, entered Helan Mountain at the age of 18, and returned alone with the head of the Qiang leader. It is said that he was the only one who had defeated Lu Bu. Of course, that was also because Lu Bu was not good at fighting in the field. However, this also shows that Wang Yue's martial arts are excellent.

"Premium." Liu Hong said lightly, then turned to Liu Yao. "Son, this is my swordsman, Wang Yue, Prince Ru, who is very skilled in martial arts. I will feel relieved if he protects you."

"Thank you, my father, but I still have another request." Liu Yao also agreed.

"I just say it."

"I want to learn martial arts from Wang Yue." Liu Yao expressed his purpose. Hearing Liu Yao's words, Wang Yue unconsciously looked at Liu Yao and looked at Liu Yao.

"Hahaha, I thought it was a big deal. I'm sure, Wang Yue, you can stay with the emperor in the future and teach him martial arts, and leave his safety to you." Liu Hong said with a big smile.

"No" Wang Yue responded, but her eyes were obviously full of excitement. After looking at it just now, he discovered that Liu Yao's roots were excellent, and he would achieve twice the result with half the effort when practicing martial arts.

"Father, if nothing happens, the child will surrender." Liu Yao bowed and prepared to surrender.

"Go, remember to bring more wine to me and taste it." Liu Hong waved his hand and said, his face full of greed.

After Liu Yao and Wang Yue left, Emperor Ling of Han changed his previous expression, "Let your father, go down too, I want to be alone and calm."

Zhang Rang didn't understand why, but he still made a respectful promise and left Nangong.

Suddenly, only Emperor Ling of Han was left in the Nangong, and the faint sigh.

But it was said that the lie sun was already in the sky on Liu Yao's side. Liu Yao, who had permission from Emperor Ling of Han, could easily walk out of the palace gate, and there was a carriage waiting in front of the palace gate. Liu Yao and Wang Yue got on the carriage, and a groom drove the carriage to Cai Yong's mansion. Of course, there were ten other jars of wine on the carriage.

In the carriage, "Hiss Wang, I will ask you in the future." Liu Yao bowed to Wang Yue.

"I dare not, don't dare." Wang Yue immediately waved his hand and said, feeling a little flattered.

"Haha, Mr. Wang doesn't have to do this. Since you teach me martial arts, you can definitely afford this gift." Liu Yao said with a smile.

Wang Yue was very moved. He never expected that Liu Yao's noble identity was so approachable.

"Hiss Wang, what do you want?" Liu Yao was about to get another help.

"To be honest with Your Highness, I have wasted thirty-five years. I have always wanted to be an official for the rest of my life, but I only have this kind of martial arts and can't be a civil servant, and my martial arts are not suitable for going to the battlefield. So I am still mediocre now." The disappointment on Wang Yue's face was obvious.

"Then you are willing to believe me." Liu Yao said seriously.

Wang Yue didn't know why, but when he looked at the child in front of him, he always felt convinced. He gritted his teeth and said, "I believe it."

"Okay, as long as you are willing to help me, you will have a place in the officialdom in the future." Liu Yao patted his chest and promised.

Wang Yue looked at the strange prince with shock on his face, and then he clasped his fists without hesitation and said, "Greetings to the lord."

"Okay! OK! OK! There is no need for lord now. You should call me the eldest prince. I call you Ziru." Liu Yao was filled with joy. Although Wang Yue could not become a general on the battlefield, he was a good assassination player. Some things must be needed for the existence of these people.
