Normally, if it is really to show grandness, a few family elders must be found as guests at the banquet. Unless they are close friends, they will not pay attention to this kind of scene.
But what does it mean to say that the other party is not particular and just made such a big show?
Enter the drawing room.
Soon, even the maids were dismissed. Changsun Sheng said solemnly: "Mr. Lin has been a great favor to me, and he is a distinguished guest of my Duke Protector's Palace. I will first pay a toast to Mr. Lin."
As he spoke, he motioned to Ning Yuqi to pour wine for Lin Yi.
As a result, Lin Yi stretched out his hand to stop her: "Young Master, your words are serious. My wife is of high status and I really can't bear it. I'll do it."
As he said this, he took the wine bottle from Ning Yuqi's hand.
Changsun Sheng's eyelids twitched and he said quickly: "Mr. Lin, please don't be polite. Yuqi has offended many people in the Land of Gods before. It is just right to ask her to pour wine to apologize. For my sake, I also ask Mr. Lin to give me a drink."
Give her a chance."
Normally, the broken promise wine is no different from other spiritual wines and is difficult to detect.
But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.
After all, Lin Yi is not an ordinary person. If this bottle of wine falls into his hands, if something is really discovered, it will be a big trouble.
At Chang Sun Sheng's signal, Ning Yuqi quickly blocked Lin Yi's hand, took a wine glass from the side, and slowly filled it up.
Changsun Sheng was afraid that Lin Yi would see the clues after taking over, so he added another layer of insurance: "Yuqi, as an apology, you have to feed Mr. Lin this glass of wine with your own hands, otherwise you won't be able to show your sincerity."
One sentence made Ning Yuqi blush as red as blood.
Although she had been mentally prepared for this before, she still felt shy when it came to this step.
It is true that she is not a particularly conservative type of woman. Before getting married, there were times when she was aggressive and bold when facing foreign men, but after all, she still adhered to the rules and regulations of a lady.
Men and women are not intimate with each other.
She, a recently married wife of a duke, feeds a foreigner wine with her own hands. How is this inappropriate?
The most important thing is that it has to be done in front of Chang Sun Sheng, the Duke’s husband!
Even though Chang Sun Sheng had instigated this matter in every possible way, at this moment, she still felt a strong sense of betrayal.
Changsun Sheng kept urging him with his winks.
In desperation, Ning Yuqi could only bite the bullet, picked up the wine glass with green fingers, and slowly brought it to Lin Yi's mouth while holding back the strong shame.
Lin Yi's face was full of astonishment: "No, it really can't be like this."
Changsun Sheng said, "Mr. Lin, this is our husband and wife's apology wine. You must drink it, otherwise you will look down on me, the Protector of the Country!"
The tone was strong, as if if you don't give me face, I will fall out on the spot.
Face to face at close range, Ning Yuqi blushed and persuaded: "Mr. Lin, just drink this cup."
When he spoke, his breath was like blue, almost spraying onto Lin Yi's face, making the whole scene even more charming.
Lin Yi looked at Chang Sun Sheng opposite and couldn't help but look strange.
He really didn't expect that the other party would actually be okay with this.
"Oh well."
Since the words had already been said to this extent, Lin Yi could not refuse and could only do as he pleased.
After all, the master doesn't mind, so what else should he care about? It's not him who suffers.
After watching Lin Yi drink up the wine in one gulp, Changsun Sheng showed a satisfied smile, but then said: "One cup is not enough, good things come in pairs. Yuqi proposes another toast to Mr. Lin."
After saying that, he went first as a sign of respect and showed the bottom of his cup to Lin Yi.
He didn't know the medicinal effect of breaking the promise of wine. If one cup wasn't enough, the whole thing would be ruined.
To be on the safe side, it's best to let Lin Yi drink the entire bottle of wine, so as to ensure nothing goes wrong.
As for how much color Ning Yuqi had to sacrifice in this process, it was no longer within his scope of consideration.
Compared to the full 20% of the fortune dividend, Ning Yuqi's sacrifice was insignificant in his eyes.
In name, she was the Duke's wife whom he was marrying, but in the final analysis, Ning Yuqi was just a pretty woman with him at best.
Not to mention just feeding people wine in person, when necessary, it's not a bad idea to take it a step further.
In the end, Lin Yi drank the whole bottle of wine, and Changsun Sheng was relieved.
"Mr. Lin, can we discuss the matter of Qi Lun's dividends again?"
Changsun Sheng got to the point.
Lin Yi was stunned: "Didn't this matter have been discussed in the court before?"
Changsun Sheng shook his head and said: "To be honest with Mr. Lin, twenty points of luck dividends are really too much. With the background of the Duke Protector's Palace, I really can't afford it. So taking advantage of today's opportunity, I hope Mr. Lin can
Make some reductions.”
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes: "How much do you want to change it to?"
"According to the regulations of the royal court, the normal luck dividend is one point."
Changsun Sheng held out two fingers: "I am not an ungrateful person. In any case, Mr. Lin has helped me a lot with the Protector's Palace, so I am willing to give you two points."
The scene fell into an eerie silence for a while.
The fortune dividend of two points is double the official regulations. In the entire Hundred Sons Plan, there are not many Hundred Sons who only get one point.
But you must know that those are the disciples trained by the major royal palaces themselves, and they are completely their own people.
What's more, the things that the major royal palaces can provide are far beyond the ordinary fortune dividends of a few points.
In the later stage, those rules selected, including the queen and others, received nearly ten points in luck bonus!
Changsun Sheng's two points were tantamount to face-to-face humiliation for Lin Yi.
Lin Yi said in a deep voice: "Young Master, our agreement is sworn by our hearts. If we violate it without authorization, the consequences will be serious."
"Are you not satisfied?"
Changsun Sheng smiled: "It doesn't matter. In fact, I'm not satisfied either. Two points is not a small amount. If you really agree, I won't be able to part with it."
Lin Yi looked at him: "Young Master, are you really not afraid of the backlash of your oath?"
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid. Who wouldn't be afraid of the backlash of my oath?"
Changsun Sheng nodded seriously, and then changed the topic: "But it's not me who broke my oath. What do I have to be afraid of? Lin Yi, the one who should really worry about now is you."
Lin Yi frowned slightly.
Changsun Sheng laughed and pointed at Ning Yuqi: "The wine she just fed you was a breach of contract. Once the drink is consumed, it will naturally be regarded as a violation of the oath! Haha, otherwise you think I am the one who broke the promise.
Why should she give you stomach wine and let you enjoy this beauty for nothing?"
