In Ahudala's car, Chai Yan and Ahudala sat facing each other, while Ge Hong and Cheng Jiu stood guard on both sides of the car.
The carriage was very spacious, and even equipped with several tables and beds. The interior decoration was also quite luxurious, which fully reflected the noble status of the second prince of Muyue Kingdom.
Chai Yan looked at everything inside and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, this RV of yours is really nice!"
"RV?" This was the first time Ahudala heard this word.
Chai Yan said: "Yes, look at everything you have here, isn't it like installing wheels on the cabin you live in?"
"Hahaha..." Ahhudala immediately laughed and nodded: "Master Chai's words are really appropriate. Along the way from Muyue Kingdom to here, I stayed in the car most of the time, listening to
When you say so, it does have some flavor..."
While they were joking, a servant brought a wine flask and two exquisite green cups.
The servant was about to pour wine for the two of them when he heard Ahudala say: "No, you can go down. If I haven't called you, don't come and disturb me."
The servant agreed and left immediately.
Ahhudala smiled and picked up the wine flask and slowly poured purple wine into two emerald green cups.
At this time, Chai Yan's attention was entirely focused on the two emerald green cups. He observed them curiously for a while and couldn't help but sigh: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, are these the legendary luminous cups?"
The so-called luminous cup is a precious drinking vessel made of jade. When wine is placed in the cup and exposed to the moonlight, the cup will sparkle, hence the name.
Ahudala poured two glasses of wine, put down the flask and said, "Yes, this cup is a luminous cup made of alexandrite unique to Muyue Kingdom. Is it still worthy of Mr. Chai's attention?"
Ahudala sounds modest and friendly, but in fact he has a hint of showing off. The two luminous cups in front of him are rare in Muyue Kingdom. They are exquisite luminous cups made by famous craftsmen.
Can't find any flaws!
If this cup can't catch the eye, then I don't know what kind of luminous cup can catch the eye.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince said this, I would not be willing to take out such a beautiful wine glass to drink wine."
When Chai Yan spoke, his eyes still stayed on the luminous cup, admiring it carefully.
Ahhudala smiled and said politely: "Master Chai, please try the Mingyue wine from our Muyue Kingdom and see if you are satisfied with the taste."
"That's exactly what I meant!"
It was this fine wine that Chaiyan was willing to sit in. When Ahudala said this, he immediately nodded and then carefully picked up one of the luminous cups.
Chai Yan took a closer look and couldn't help but nodded slowly, because the color of the wine in the glass was ruby red, clear and transparent, and the brightness was very good, giving people the impression that it was just right.
Next, Chai Yan put the wine glass under his nose and smelled it carefully...
Ahudala couldn't help but ask: "Master Chai, is the smell still satisfactory?"
Chai Yan nodded affirmatively and said: "Satisfied! The aroma of this wine is light and elegant, without any unpleasant smell, and it makes people feel quite happy after entering the nose!"
Ahudala was very happy after hearing these words, and said expectantly: "It turns out that Mr. Chai is an expert in wine. Xiao Wang is more and more interested in knowing how Mr. Chai evaluates the taste of this wine."
Afterwards, Chai Yan took a shallow sip and said silently: "Well...it's round in the mouth and feels good in the mouth. The wine taste and astringency are also very harmonious and balanced. It's indeed top quality."
Good wine! In short, it can be summed up in eight words: delicate, elegant, mellow and round!”
"Delicate and elegant, mellow and round..." Ahhudala repeated in a low voice, and then he raised his hands and said with a smile: "Master Chai spoke highly of this wine, which really makes Xiao Wang ashamed...
..."
Next, the two of them chatted and drank wine.
Chai Yan looked at the translucent emerald green cup and couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, Second Prince, when I saw this grape wine and luminous cup, I suddenly remembered a poem, but this poem didn't quite fit the current scene...
"
Ahudala always admires the people of Yue Kingdom, but he is very interested in the poetry and songs of Sheng Kingdom. After hearing what Chai Yan said, he immediately asked: "Master Chai, what kind of poem is it? Can you read it to Xiao Wang?"
?”
Chai Yan thought to himself that he has drunk your wine, so he should read a poem to you.
So, Chai Yan cleared his throat slightly, recalling the poems while brewing his emotions...
After a while, Chai Yan read: "Glow-in-the-dark cup of fine grape wine. If you want to drink, play the pipa immediately. Don't laugh when you are lying drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times..."
After listening to this poem, Ahudala could not help but be stunned, and then he applauded: "What a poem, what a poem! Mr. Chai, your poem is so appropriate! It seems that you are talking about me, Mu."
The soldiers of the Moon Kingdom are not afraid of powerful enemies and fight on the battlefield. Even if they never return, they are not timid at all!"
This poem comes from "One of Two Liangzhou Ci" written by Wang Han of the Tang Dynasty. It tells the story of a wine banquet in which the exquisite luminous cups are filled with mellow grape wine, and the singers play a rapid and cheerful song.
The sound of the pipa adds to the excitement and urges me to drink. The thought of galloping to the desert is imminent.
Going out to kill the enemy and serve the country, the soldiers were all full of pride, so they decided to get drunk today. What's the harm even if they fell drunk on the battlefield? Because they went out to serve the country this time, they originally planned to wrap their bodies in horse hides, and they were not alive.
Get ready to come back!
"Thank you, Second Prince, thank you..." Chai Yan said modestly.
Ahudala became more interested at this time, and asked slightly excitedly: "Master Chai, I wonder if Xiao Wang can copy your poem and take it back to Muyue Kingdom?"
"Your Highness, Second Prince, I did not compose this poem. I read it in a book and remembered it if I thought it was good. Of course, if you like this poem, just copy it and take it back with you," Chai Yan explained.
As soon as Ahudala said he read it in a book, he became curious and immediately asked: "Master Chai, which book is it? Is it available in bookstores in Huaidu City? I would like Master Chai to tell Xiao Wang Shu
name......."
"Title of the book?" Chai Yan was stunned, and after thinking about it he had to lie: "I don't know what the title of the book is, it's been many years, and what I was reading was a fragment of a volume, and the cover of the book was long gone...
....”
"So that's it..." Ahudala was immediately disappointed, shook his head slightly and said with emotion: "Oh, that's such a pity. If I can find this book, I will definitely read it!"
Next, Ahhudala actually took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, carefully copied down the four lines of the poem, and read it again and again with interest.
Chai Yan didn't want to discuss poetry with Ahudala anymore, so he took the initiative to change the topic and asked: "By the way, Your Highness, the Second Prince, isn't Muyue Kingdom to the west of Sheng Kingdom? Why don't you enter the capital from the west?
We entered the city and ended up on the east road? Could it be that you accidentally got lost?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chaiyan noticed that Ahudala's expression became serious.
"What's wrong, His Highness the Second Prince? Did I say something wrong?" Chai Yan looked at Ahudala in confusion, wondering if his joke was inappropriate?
Ahudala looked extremely serious and said: "I am very happy to meet Mr. Chai today and feel like old friends at first sight! Since Mr. Chai asked about this matter, it is inconvenient for Xiao Wang to continue to hide it...
..”
When Chai Yan heard that there was something hidden in this matter, his expression immediately became serious.
Ahudala said: "Master Chai, in fact, we took a detour here deliberately and prepared to enter Huaidu City from the east gate. The purpose is to avoid the delegation from the Piz Kingdom!"
