“Three bowls and I’ll be under the table?”
Niu Ben glanced sideways at Lu Fei, thinking to himself that this kid had witnessed his drinking capacity back in the day. How could he spout such nonsense now?
Lu Fei, oblivious to Niu Ben’s expression, said, “General, I’m not exaggerating. Try it if you don’t believe me!”
As the clear liquor filled the bowl, Niu Ben immediately sensed something different—a strong aroma rushed straight to his nose.
Having sampled fine wines across the Great Yu Empire, he now felt he was truly seeing something new.
“The secret recipe for this wine comes from His Highness,” Luo Xin chimed in. Having tasted Drunken Qingzhou himself, he could no longer stomach any other liquor.
But Drunken Qingzhou wasn’t cheap, and Luo Quan was notoriously stingy—preferring to mooch drinks at others’ homes rather than spend his own silver.
This was precisely why Luo Xin often visited Xiao Ming—mostly to freeload food and drinks.
Niu Ben gave Xiao Ming another look. This Prince of Qi was becoming more and more intriguing. After five years in the mines, all he had hoped for was to serve a wise ruler.
“Even so, three bowls to knock me out? You underestimate this old man,” Niu Ben said, licking his lips.
Five years without a drop had left him parched. He downed one bowl in a single gulp, then poured himself two more before anyone could stop him.
