Yanlai Tower was the focus of Chang'an City tonight. Almost all the important figures in the court were invited to the banquet by Luo Zhang. Of course, Changsun Wuji was not among them. Why did you call him here? Will it cause trouble for Luo Zhang himself? Besides, if you call others to come, they won't come, so why bother to stick to others' cold ass? It's better not to call, so that everyone will be better off.
For today's scene at Yanlai Tower, Luo Zhang went to the palace and invited His Majesty. However, Luo Zhang was not interested in drinking. The purpose of inviting His Majesty was to get His Majesty to lift the curfew today. Otherwise, he would not be able to do it at night, so he had to It’s held at noon, but it doesn’t have that style. Today is the opportunity to make Yan Lai Lou famous, so how can there be any flaws!
So this matter can only be asked to His Majesty. His Majesty initially disagreed, but after Luo Zhang said that he had something good that he wanted to appreciate, Li Shimin laughed and scolded Luo Zhang for not doing his job properly, and finally agreed to Luo Zhang's request and gave it to Yuwen The letter issued an order to lift the curfew tonight.
You must know that since Li Shimin took the throne, he has only canceled the curfew a few times. Most of the time, it was done under special circumstances. This is the first time that the curfew has been canceled for personal reasons. This kind of thing has made people in the court look at him and sigh. Luo Zhang's Holy Favorite, this kind of thing would be impossible for others to achieve.
In response to His Majesty's cancellation of the curfew, some people who had originally planned not to go also came one after another.
Today, the Yanlai Tower is brightly lit. Palace lanterns are lit on the roof and all around, illuminating the entire Yanlai Tower like daylight, without the slightest feeling of night.
Sandalwood is lit everywhere in the building, making people feel relaxed as soon as they enter.
With the continuous arrival of people, the Yanlai Building became bustling with people. Everyone who arrived was very curious about what the Yanlai Building would look like after the renovation, and kept looking around.
Although there are no major changes, the layout has completely changed, giving people a different feeling. This is the first time they have seen the Yanlai Building after this kind of transformation, not only here, but also in other places. They have never seen this kind of design method before, but it makes many people curious.
The most curious thing is the high platform in the center. At this time, the high platform is covered by bright red silk cloth on all sides. It is impossible to see clearly what is going on inside. The reason for this is to maintain a sense of mystery. , only in this way will people be curious, and there will be a sense of surprise after the debut.
At this time, Luo Zhang was on the high platform, asking people to arrange things. After the arrangements were completed, Luo Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. The object was also covered with bright red silk cloth, and he had no intention of showing it up from the beginning. , this is the most important event tonight, how can you show it to others easily.
After finishing everything, Luo Zhang walked out of the Yanlai Tower. If the person came, the time would be almost up, and the officials and merchants who were hosting the banquet were almost there. If the person didn't come, Luo Zhang would start the ceremony on time.
Time passed by, and Luo Zhang shook his head helplessly. After all, that person still didn't come, and the time had come. Luo Zhang had to go to the opening ceremony. If the time was wasted, those big guys would make a fuss. He didn't want to leave a bad impression.
Just as Luo Zhang turned around and was about to leave, a sharp voice came from behind.
"Luo Zhang, why don't you hurry up and pick him up!"
This voice was so familiar that it was none other than Eunuch Huang.
Hearing Eunuch Huang's voice, Luo Zhang's spirit was shocked. He couldn't help but be overjoyed and hurriedly turned around and walked forward.
When I got closer, I saw that the person who came was not His Majesty. However, His Majesty today was dressed in regular clothes, like the uncle next door. However, his majesty has not diminished at all. After all, this thing is integrated into the bones and cannot be changed at all.
"My lord, Luo Zhang, welcome your Majesty." Luo Zhang saluted respectfully.
"Well, we're not in the palace, so we can skip these gifts. I didn't come here today to listen to you. If there are no good things for me to appreciate, I won't let you go!" Li Shimin said to Luo Zhang. He smiled playfully.
"How can I? I will definitely satisfy Your Majesty today. If I am not satisfied with Your Majesty's punishment of my crime, I will never complain!" Luo Zhang said confidently, patting his chest.
"I heard it all. Luo Zhang said this yourself. Don't punish you when the time comes. If you are not convinced!" Li Shimin joked.
Li Junxian, Yu Wenxin, and Eunuch Huang who followed Li Shimin all showed knowing smiles.
Under Luo Zhang's personal guidance, Li Shimin went directly to the largest box on the fourth floor.
When Li Shimin climbed to the fourth floor, the lights in the largest private room on the fourth floor were also lit up.
Regarding this largest private room, everyone who entered here was very curious about why it had been dark all the time, but now it was lit up. Apparently someone had gone in. They all speculated who was in this private room and why it was so special. It was the largest private room in the room. .
Some people had some guesses, but they were not sure. After all, if that person attended, the scale of this wine tasting conference would be huge.
After Li Shimin entered the box and checked the facilities, he nodded with satisfaction. He could see that Luo Zhang had put a lot of thought into it. Even the flowers and fragrances he liked were clearly arranged.
Accompanied by Luo Zhang, Li Shimin walked to the viewing platform.
Only then did everyone see who was staying on the fourth floor.
After seeing the person walking out clearly, everyone took a deep breath, stood up, bowed to the people upstairs, and said in unison: "Your Majesty!"
Li Shimin bowed his hands and said, "Don't be too formal, I'm just here to take a look."
His Majesty said this, but they did not dare to do that. It was not until His Majesty retreated behind the observation deck that everyone stood up and breathed a sigh of relief. No one expected that His Majesty would actually arrive, and everyone was shocked by Luo Zhang. People can make His Majesty agree to the curfew and come here. This is entirely for Luo Zhang's platform. It would be a lie to say that he is not jealous, but there is no use being jealous. This is his ability, and they don't have this ability. kind of ability.
His Majesty's arrival added a lot of brilliance and topic to this wine tasting conference. Luo Zhang was smiling even when he was busy behind the scenes. Zhao Tianhu and others couldn't help laughing.
Of course, they are not laughing at Luo Zhang, but with His Majesty's golden sign, it is difficult for Yan Lailou to be popular. After all, this is a place where His Majesty even comes to live, so they are happy.
His Majesty is here, so naturally it’s time to start the show. Luo Zhang personally served as the host this time. He walked up to the high platform and held an iron cylindrical speaker that he had used before. It is commonly known as a simple version of a loudspeaker. This way, Luo Zhang doesn't have to work so hard to speak.
Luo Zhang's appearance on stage naturally attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at him.
Luo Zhang coughed, picked up the loudspeaker and said to everyone: "I am Luo Zhang. I believe everyone here knows me. I don't need to introduce myself here. I am very happy that everyone can come here today. Since it’s a wine tasting event, wine is indispensable, so let’s serve the wine first!”
As soon as Luo Zhang finished speaking, a maid walked towards each compartment and box with a tray, delivering gourds one by one. The gourds were not filled with Erguotou, but Maotai. Although each compartment There is only one gourd and one tael of Maotai in the room, which is also a thousand taels of silver. As for the upstairs box, there are two gourds on the second floor and three gourds on the third floor. As for His Majesty, he has already drank it, and it is basically open to serve. of.
Luo Zhang has spent a lot of money for today, but Luo Zhang believes that this small amount of effort will be paid back in double tonight. Just like what he said to King Wei, he will not do a loss-making business.
Looking at the gourds presented by the maid, everyone's eyes sparkled, and those in the compartment couldn't wait to open the gourds and smell them.
You can tell whether a good wine or a bad wine is good just by smelling it. When they smelled the rich and mellow aroma of the wine, their eyes widened.
According to what they thought, Luo Zhang's invitation to them to come for wine tasting was just talk. They had never drunk any wine, but they didn't expect that Luo Zhang was not joking with them. Instead, he really had good wine, and it was the best wine, so he rushed They will know how the wine tastes.
Many people in the cubicle didn't even think about it, and didn't even have time to get the cup. Instead, they just raised their necks and took a sip.
For a time, the entire Yanlai Tower was filled with the aroma of wine, and from time to time there would be voices of admiration, praising the wine as being the best wine they had ever drunk in their lives.
Luo Zhang on the stage was curling his lips, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, drink, drink more, and shout out the price a few times when your head gets hot. How can the wine of labor and management be so delicious?
