Everyone in the Tao family was in an uproar.

This is Yuxiangchun that has been cellared for 30 years. No one who has drunk it will boast that it is a fine wine in the world. How dare this reckless man belittle it like this.

Did King Qi lose his face in order to sell his own wine?

Tao Lu also frowned slightly, he was not angry, he could see that Pang Hu's expression did not seem to be fake, and he felt that he really thought that Yu Xiangchun was not good.

"Irregular!"

Someone in the crowd stumbled and cursed.

Everyone in the Tao family turned pale with fright, and scolded him in front of King Qi for looking for death. Once King Qi was angered, the Tao family might be in catastrophe.

Xiao Jie smiled slightly, and pointed to Tao Hui in the crowd: "Young Master Tao, please come here."

He could see clearly that it was Tao Hui who slipped and cursed.

He was somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Jie because of what happened on the day of King Qin's wedding banquet, and now seeing his servant belittle Yu Xiangchun from the Tao family so much, he couldn't help but slander secretly, unexpectedly, he accidentally swears.

Tao Hui knew he was in trouble, when he heard Xiao Jie call his name, his complexion turned pale instantly, his heart was extremely panicked, how could he dare to step forward.

Xiao Jie continued to smile and said, "Young Master Tao, I'm calling you."

In Tao Hui's eyes, Xiao Jie's smile was more terrifying than the devil, he dared not disobey his orders, he wanted to move forward, but his feet seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move.

Tao Song on the side was frightened, knelt down towards Xiao Jie with a plop, and begged bitterly: "Your Highness, my son is young and ignorant, and I, the father, cannot discipline well. If you want to punish me, please punish me, please." Let my son go."

Tao Lu sighed, and also pleaded for Tao Hui: "Your Highness, I will also apologize to His Highness for my grandson, I hope Your Highness can forgive me this time."

Xiao Jie ignored Tao Lu and Tao Song's request, but still smiled and said to Tao Hui: "Young Master Tao, how many more times do you want me to invite you?"

"Your Highness, I beg you not to embarrass my brother anymore."

Suddenly a figure flashed out from behind the screen, and knelt down at Xiao Jie's feet with a plop.

Xiao Jie looked down and felt a little familiar, and then looked more carefully, it turned out to be Tao Han in women's clothes, a little more gentle and charming than when she was in men's clothes.

Xiao Jie feigned surprise: "Miss Tao, didn't your father say that you are unwell?"

Tao Han's face turned bright red in an instant, and he lowered his head and said softly, "Thank you for your concern, the little girl is much better. I heard that Your Highness is coming, so I came here to take a look."

Xiao Jie didn't know that she had been hiding behind the screen to observe just now, but he didn't want to expose it, so he just smiled and said, "It's as long as Miss Tao is fine."

Tao Han hesitated for a moment, then resolutely raised his head and said, "Your Highness, I beg you, can you forgive my brother this time."

Xiao Jie didn't answer him, but turned to look at Tao Hui, with no smile on his face: "Young Master Tao, your grandfather, your father, and your sister have all stood up to intercede for you, are you sure?" Do you still want to hide like a tortoise and dare not come to face me?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Tao Hui's mind gradually went blank, and he walked towards Xiao Jie slowly, seemingly unconsciously, only feeling an aggressive aura rushing towards his face, which scared him so much that he dared not meet Xiao Jie's gaze directly. Just keep your head down.

Xiao Jie smiled: "Young Master Tao, I called you so many times before you came over. It's really not easy to buy you a drink."

Everyone was stunned, and after arguing for a long time, they just asked Tao Hui to come over for a drink.

You princes are really good at playing, and you almost frighten the hearts of ordinary people like us.

But Xiao Jie has his own reasons for doing this.

He really wanted to cure Tao Hui, a crazy sister-protecting demon.

After all, in his opinion, interfering with his sister's feelings in the name of doing her best is more or less a serious illness. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than a perverted possessive desire.

He is not Xiao Huang, so he doesn't want to waste so much time trying to influence him.

He just wanted Tao Hui to know that he was going to be dealt with like an ant. He wanted him to be more sensible, and leave his and Tao Han's affairs alone from now on.

Xiao Jie winked at Pang Hu, and Pang Ben understood, smashing the wine jar seal with his palm, and the strong aroma of wine filled the whole hall in an instant.

Everyone's expressions changed instantly, they had never smelled such a strong aroma of wine in their life.

Even Tao Lu, who has always been calm, moved slightly, looking thoughtful.

Pang Hu brought another unused glass cup, filled it up, pushed it in front of Tao Hui, and shouted loudly: "Young Master Tao, please."

Tao Hui first glanced at Pang Hu in fear, then peeked at Xiao Jie, then picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, a burst of spicy and strong wine poured down his throat instantly, hot sweat broke out on his forehead instantly, and he couldn't help saying: "This wine is so spicy."

A middle-aged man in the crowd stepped forward, his brows looked a bit like Tao Song's, he must be Tao Song's brother, and he bowed to Xiao Jie: "Your Highness, the grassroots Tao Lin, is in charge of the Tao family. For the wine making business, can the grassroots also have a taste of this wine."

Xiao Jie smiled slightly and made a gesture of invitation.

Pang Hu also poured a glass for Tao Lin. Tao Lin raised the glass and put it under his nose to sniff for a while, then took a small sip, closed his eyes and savored for a while, and then drank the wine in the glass.

Afterwards, Tao Lin put down his glass and said with emotion: "Your Highness, I have to admit that I, Tao Lin, have been dealing with wine all my life, and this is the first time in my life that I have drunk such a strong and mellow good wine."

Xiao Jie teased and said, "I wonder if this wine can be sold for 20 taels of silver a bucket?"

"No." Tao Lin shook his head, then smiled, "It should be sold for 100 taels of silver."

Xiao Jie also laughed, this Tao Lin's words were quite interesting.

Tao Lin is known as the "God of Dionysus" of the Tao family. Seeing that even he gave such a high evaluation, everyone felt a little itchy and wanted to taste what this wine tasted like.

Xiao Jie also saw what they were thinking, and asked them to do whatever they wanted, so you're welcome.

"Could your Highness come to the inner hall with the old man?"

Taking advantage of the time when everyone was competing to taste wine, Tao Lu suddenly extended an invitation to Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie didn't dare to go, but Tao Lu didn't know what to think, besides calling Tao Song and Tao Lin brothers, he also called Tao Han to go there together.

"No matter how much wine His Highness has, our Tao family can accept it at the price of 20 taels a bucket. Besides, our Tao family also wants to negotiate another deal with His Highness."

Once entering the inner hall, the guests of honor were seated separately, and Tao Lu went straight to the point.

Xiao Jie vaguely guessed something in his heart, but still asked with a smile: "I don't know what business Mr. Tao is talking about."

"Our Tao family is willing to pay a high price for His Royal Highness's wine-making technology. I don't know if His Highness can part with it."
