Satile was so drunk that he acted ugly. Heishan also felt very shameless. After dragging Shatilie away, he drank a few glasses of wine and complained to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng arranged for two young eunuchs to take Heishan to the Xiongnu's residence.

Heishan and others left, and only the Qin people were left at the banquet. As a result, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty no longer had any scruples and began to praise Li Xin.

During today's drinking competition, Li Xin earned face for Da Qin, and also for the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Therefore, even if I was at odds with Li Xin on weekdays, I admired him a little now.

They knew in their hearts that Li Xin won by drinking. The courtiers did not believe that descendants of immortals could drink immortal wine without getting drunk.

They were not Huns. They knew very well who Li Shui was and knew that nine out of ten sentences from this guy's mouth were false.

As for everyone's admiration, Li Xin accepted them all. And he said with a smile: "You are all over-praising me. Li Xin only has some drinking capacity and can't get drunk after a thousand cups. He also has some ability to lead troops and once killed Prince Yan. He only has some literary talent and has made progress for His Majesty." It’s just a tribute to the title of emperor. It’s just a bit of recognition of people, and it’s just a recommendation of Brother Huai to Your Majesty. It’s just a bit of loyalty and courage, and it’s just a drinking competition with the Huns..."

The courtiers originally admired Li Xin, but now they heard him brag about his martial arts skills, which were unprecedented and unprecedented. The courtiers suddenly felt bored.

Wang Li couldn't help but sneer and said sarcastically: "So, General Li is comparable to a saint?"

Li Xin waved his hand and said, "Oh, I can't do it, I can't do it. Little General Wang is overly praised."

He said he didn't deserve it, but his face was smiling and he looked very satisfied.

Wang Li suddenly felt bored. If you are sarcastic to others, they will not hear it at all and they will think you are complimenting them. In this case, sarcasm is useless.

The alchemists stayed in a corner and never participated in their conversation. When the courtiers were all silent, an alchemist said cautiously: "Your Majesty, can you let me have a taste of this jar of fairy wine?"

When Li Xin heard this, he became anxious. He held the wine jar in his arms and said, "Brother Huai has already promised me that this wine belongs to me."

Ying Zheng cast a questioning look at Li Shui.

Li Shui understood and immediately said: "There is still a lot of this wine."

Ying Zheng immediately felt relieved and said calmly: "Li Xin has done a good job in promoting the power of our great Qin. I will give you this jar of wine."

Li Xin was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.

When the alchemists heard that Li Shui also had immortal wine, they were immediately itchy. Everyone has spent most of their lives looking for the fairy mountain, but they have found nothing. Many people have become stunned.

Now that I have the opportunity to taste ambrosia, I will never miss it. Many people have already made up their minds. Even if Li Shui hits them or scares them with a gold medal to avoid death, they will never back down.

If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening. Even if he dies under the immunity gold medal, it is still worth it to have a sip of the fairy wine before death.

When Chunyu Yue saw Li Shui's proud face and Ying Zheng being deceived by Li Shui, he couldn't help but shake his head and thought: "When the country is about to perish, evildoers will surely be born."

He couldn't help but ask: "Master Huai, in the past you once claimed that you met immortals in your dreams, but today, you have become sitting on the top of Kunlun Mountain and discussing Taoism with immortals. How to explain this?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone became excited and wanted to see what Li Shui had to say.

Who knew that Li Shui said nonchalantly: "Isn't this simple? In my dream, I climbed to the top of Kunlun Mountain and sat down with the immortals to talk. The Huns were present just now, and I deliberately hid in my dream to frighten the hearts of the Huns."

This explanation makes sense.

But Chunyu Yue seized the opportunity and asked again: "Since you met the immortal in a dream, how did you bring this immortal wine back? Could it be that you took it from a dream?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned. Yes, why didn't you think of this before?

Wang Ben bowed to Chun Yuyue and said with a smile: "Dr. Chun is really thoughtful."

Chunyu Yue snorted coldly and ignored him.

Chunyu Yue can't stand Li Xin, and that's right. But it's just that he doesn't like it. He scolds Li Xin on weekdays, just as an elder, teaching his younger brother on Li Ji's behalf. The eldest sister is like a mother, and as his brother-in-law, he is also half a father.

As for Wang Ben and Wang Li, they were political enemies who wanted to kill Li Xin. How could Chunyu Yue have a crush on Wang Bi?

Wang Ben didn't care either, he was happy to watch the fun.

Anyway, Li Shui and Li Xin were on the same team, so the more Chun Yu started to cause trouble for Li Shui, this could be regarded as a dog-eating-dog fight.

Faced with Chun Yuyue's doubts, Li Shui did not panic at all and said calmly: "What I learned in my dream was the method of brewing fairy wine. After waking up from the dream, I made wine according to the recipe and succeeded by luck. What is there to question? of?"

Chun Yuyue said: "So, the so-called steamed buns were made successfully after Master Huai learned the method from the immortal and after waking up from the dream?"

Li Shui said calmly: "Exactly. Haven't you seen Dr. Chun?"

Chunyu Yue was stunned: "When have I seen it before?"

Li Shui said: "The first stone mill is the place where steamed buns are made."

The courtiers were all confused: "The first stone mill? The place where rocks are smashed? Didn't you claim to be making elixirs there? Why are you making steamed buns again? Is there any truth in your mouth?"

Even Li Xin was worried about Li Shui: "Brother Huai lied too much, it seems a little messed up."

Who knew that Li Shui calmly said: "It is both making steamed buns and refining elixirs. You know, when people eat whole grains, their bodies are often impure and their breath is messy. They will get sick and their bodies will be weak. If you take elixirs rashly, your immortal energy will be majestic and your body will be weakened." If you can't bear it, it will explode like the alchemy furnace back then."

"Therefore, I will start with food. Make some immortal delicacies to condition your majesty's body. When your majesty's physical body becomes indestructible, you can take the elixir, become immortal, and become an immortal."

"The stones polished by the First Stone Mill are tools for purifying grains, extracting their essence, and then making steamed buns."

Ying Zheng was fascinated by what he heard and nodded repeatedly.

In the past, those alchemists took money and went looking for fairy mountains, but there was no news for several years. And now? Li Shui would report on the progress from time to time, and his words were convincing and sounded very reliable.

Li Xin was surprised and delighted, and said, "It turns out that Brother Huai is really refining the elixir."

Everyone was a little speechless: We have been making trouble for a long time, don’t you know what Huaiguzi is doing? Fortunately, during the last court meeting, you patted your chest and assured His Majesty that Huai Guzi was refining elixirs. This friend, really has nothing to say...

Everyone laughed bitterly, but Ji Ming was about to cry without tears.

"It's over. The No. 1 Stone Mill is really related to alchemy. Last time I made a sincere complaint to His Majesty, saying that Huai Guzi was playing around and deceiving the king. Now it seems that it has become a false accusation again." Ji Ming thought of this, My legs are a little weak.
