Chapter 545 Is This Really Wine?
Emperor Yongshun looked at Zheng Sisi with a hint of admiration in his eyes. He didn't expect that this future daughter-in-law was so smart and could point out the problem in one sentence.
He smiled and said to her, "Sisi, you are so smart and you hit the nail on the head! Why didn't I notice this problem before?"
Zheng Sisi smiled slightly and answered modestly: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I just learned about it by chance. Charcoal burning will produce a lot of carbon dioxide. If you don't ventilate in time, it will easily make people feel uncomfortable or even endanger their health. In the future, you should pay attention to keeping the indoor air circulating."
Emperor Yongshun nodded in agreement: "Yes, you are right. From now on, I will have my servants pay more attention to these details, and I will also have them talk to everyone in the court to make everyone pay attention to this kind of harm, and not let anyone get hurt again."
Everyone walked into the inner room and the atmosphere became much more relaxed than before.
A group of young eunuchs filed in, each carrying a basket full of vegetables, and put them into the palace.
Emperor Yongshun looked at the vegetables curiously and praised them, "Very good, Sisi. I didn't expect you could grow so many vegetables in this season."
He turned to Eunuch Mu and said, "Little Mu, we are in for a treat today. We can try these fresh vegetables."
When Zheng Sisi pointed to another basket, Emperor Yongshun's eyes lit up. That basket was filled with bright red fruits, exuding an enticing aroma.
Zheng Sisi explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is not an ordinary fruit, but the strawberry I planted! It is a kind of fruit."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yongshun immediately became excited: "What? Sisi, you actually grew fruit? And in this cold season? It's amazing!"
He could not wait to order Eunuch Mu: "Quick, go get some strawberries so I can taste them."
Eunuch Mu nodded excitedly, quickly picked up the basket, and went to the kitchen to wash the strawberries himself. He held the basket carefully, as if it contained precious treasures.
After all, fresh fruits are very rare in this winter, let alone those grown by Princess Anping herself.
After a while, Eunuch Mu returned to the palace with washed strawberries. Emperor Yongshun couldn't wait to pick up a strawberry and put it in his mouth to taste it.
He chewed it carefully with a satisfied smile on his face: "Hmm, sour and sweet, it's really delicious! Sisi, your planting skills are amazing."
He gave a few more strawberries to Eunuch Mu and said, "Little Mu, try some too."
Eunuch Mu took the strawberry and burst into tears of gratitude: "Thank you for the gift, Your Majesty!"
He carefully held the red strawberries in his hands, his heart filled with joy. These strawberries were not only delicious food, but also the emperor's favor to him.
While enjoying the delicious strawberries, Emperor Yongshun discussed planting techniques and future plans with Zheng Sisi.
He encouraged Zheng Sisi to keep working hard and grow more fruits, especially strawberries, because in winter, this kind of fruit would definitely be popular in the market and become a considerable source of income.
Zheng Sisi smiled and nodded, but secretly complained in her heart: "The emperor is now obsessed with money. No matter what he does, he only thinks about making money."
However, she also understood that economic development was indeed crucial for a country. So, despite some helplessness, she decided to fully support the emperor and increase the planting area.
Zheng Sisi took out a gift box from the basket and gave it to Emperor Yongshun. When Emperor Yongshun learned that the box contained white wine, memories of the jar of fine wine in the hands of Duke Zheng came to his mind.
The wine left him with an endless aftertaste. He was reluctant to finish it all at once and could only enjoy one glass a day. But he finally finished it.
Now that he heard that Zheng Sisi sent wine, his greed was aroused again.
However, when they opened the box and saw the two bottles of wine inside, both Emperor Yongshun and Eunuch Mu were stunned in astonishment.
Is this really wine?
Could it be possible that wine could be served in such an exquisite vessel?
Emperor Yongshun was so excited that his hands were trembling as he held a bottle of liquor and stared at it for a long time. He was so excited that he couldn't speak for a long time.
He really couldn't find the right words to describe the beauty of these two bottles of wine and the bottles, and could only describe them as divine artifacts.
Sheng Zhen looked at his father's astonished expression and knew that he was shocked by the exquisite craftsmanship of the wine bottle.
He was worried that his father would lose control for too long, so he gently reminded him, "Father, do you want to open it and taste it?"
Emperor Yongshun came back to his senses, glared at his son, and said, "Go, go, go, don't think about this, I want to keep it well."
