  Chapter 1593 How about this wine

   "Master, you haven't told me yet, have you been promoted to governor?" Mrs. Zhang asked again with concern.

   "I have been promoted to Governor-General because of the trust of the Holy One." Zhang Jingyun said calmly, as if he was saying that he had returned from grocery shopping.

   "Really, that's really thankful, Amitabha." Mrs. Zhang couldn't help smiling when she heard this, the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes faded several times, and she clasped her hands together and bowed several times.

   "You who worship heaven and earth and recite Amitabha Buddha, wouldn't the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism want to fight in the sky?"

  Zhang Jing shook his head helplessly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

   "Many people don't blame the ceremony, but how can the gods and Buddhas blame it." The smile on Mrs. Zhang's face remained unabated, and she opened her mouth to argue.

   "I always tell you to be cautious and independent, to be pure and pure, whether you are dismissed or promoted, it doesn't matter, power is nothing but a foreign thing. If you are not righteous, your heart is not pure, power and wealth are nothing."

  Zhang Jing shook his head slightly and said softly.

"Master, you have no conscience when you say this. We have been married for decades, don't you know me? When you were still called Cai Jing, I followed you. After you became an official, how many times did you know me?" Ten years have been like a day, how have I ever relied on your power!" Mrs. Zhang said angrily when she heard the words.

   Before Zhang Jing could speak, Mrs. Zhang continued, "The reason why I care about your promotion is not because you were dismissed a few days ago. You tossed and turned for several days, unable to fall asleep, and sighed endlessly."

"Yes, I blamed my wife for my husband." Zhang Jing begged for mercy with a wry smile, and then said again, "The reason why I sighed and couldn't sleep a few days ago was not that Zhang Jing was greedy for power, but that I needed this power to fulfill my ideals—— To destroy the pirates, restore the trust of the saints, restore peace to the common people, and restore the prosperity of the universe."

   "You don't need to explain, I understand." Mrs. Zhang said tenderly.

   Zhang Jing stared at him and couldn’t help being moved

  Zhu Ping'an couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, what did I do wrong, I was stuffed with dog food before I drank the wine.

   "Ahem, I'll go and order the kitchen to fry some more appetizers." Mrs. Zhang came to her senses first, her face flushed slightly, she coughed, and bowed her body.

   "No need, ma'am, just the usual dishes." Zhu Pingan said politely, cupping his hands.

   "How can I do that, the master finally brought people back, so how can we not cook a few more dishes. Besides, today the master is promoted, so I have to cook a few more dishes to celebrate." Mrs. Zhang said with a smile.

   "Madam also brought my treasured royal tribute wine 'Pearl Red'. Today is the time for it to be unsealed."

   Zhang Jing emphasized a reminder when Mrs. Zhang left.

Mrs. Zhang couldn't help being stunned when she heard the words, her face was full of surprise, and she doubted her ears. The jar of wine was the lifeblood of the master. They all ran into a wall in front of the master, thinking that the master was going to take it underground, but I didn't expect to open it to drink today? !

  Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but look at Zhu Ping'an more often. This young man named Zhu Ping'an looked quite ordinary, but the master looked at him so differently.

  Zhu Ping'an. This name seems a bit familiar, and I always feel as if I have heard it several times.

  Mrs. Zhang went to the kitchen while recalling.

   "Zi Hou, please." Zhang Jing stretched out his hand and invited Zhu Pingan into the living room.

  The furnishings in the living room are relatively simple, but elegant, which shows that Zhang Jing and his wife have good taste.

Soon the dishes were ready, eight dishes and one soup in total, cold lotus root, vinegared peanuts, scrambled eggs with fungus, braised tofu, vinegared mung bean sprouts, vinegared white cabbage, braised pork, steamed fish, and a pot of fish head tofu soup.

  This is home-cooked food, unlike the last reception banquet, which has the name of home-cooked food but not the reality of home-cooked food.

  Of course, the altar of "Pearl Red" is indispensable.

   "Oh, you are Zhu Ping'an, the number one scholar who is famous in Yingtian! Well, yes, although you don't look very outstanding, you are talented, and you are also a good-looking talent. You are not very old, have you ever been married?"

  When Mrs. Zhang came to deliver the wine, she suddenly remembered who Zhu Ping'an was, and asked curiously.

  Then without waiting for Zhu Ping'an's answer, he introduced enthusiastically, "There is a little girl in my distant cousin's family. She is beautiful and well-educated. She is always praised in the workshop, and she has never been married to anyone."

   There are not many people who can catch the eyes of the master, and there are even fewer people who can make the master look at him differently. They must have excellent character and talent. Moreover, this Zhu Ping'an was the number one scholar, and he wiped out the Japanese pirates who invaded Yingtian. He was a rare man with both civil and military skills. Wouldn't it be a great thing for such a young talent to marry my niece.

   "Ma'am." Zhang Jing frowned.

   "I'm also concerned." Mrs. Zhang explained.

   "Thank you, madam, for your concern, but Ping An is already married, so I can only thank Bu Min." Zhu Ping'an cupped his hands in gratitude.

"That's such a pity, I still want to introduce you to each other." Mrs. Zhang said regretfully, and then said with interest, "I don't know what kind of girl she is, so blessed, next time I come, I will bring your wife along with you." superior."

   "Thank you ma'am, I will definitely have a chance." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands.

   "Okay, I won't bother you, you can eat while it's hot. Although you are happy today, you should drink in moderation. Drinking too much will hurt your health." Madam Zhang got up and left before leaving.

  Because men and women had different tables in ancient times, Mrs. Zhang went to eat in other rooms instead of at the same table. And Zhang Jing's son accompanied his wife to visit relatives at the father-in-law's house in Henan. He left last month and hasn't come back yet.

  Therefore, there are only Zhu Pingan and Zhang Jing at this table.

   "Come on, Zihou, have a taste of this royal wine 'Pearl Red'." Zhang Jing opened the wine jar to seal the clay, poured it into the jug, and poured wine for Zhu Pingan with the jug.

  Zhu Ping'an got up and held the wine glass with both hands, received the wine, put the wine into the glass, and the carmine red wine was rippling in the glass.

   Didi Pearl Red is about to burn, no wonder it is called "Pearl Red".

   "The lower official has the audacity to borrow flowers to present Buddha. This glass of wine is toasted to your lord. Congratulations to your lord for being promoted to governor-general." Zhu Ping'an respected Zhang Jing with a glass of wine.

   "Hehe, speaking of it, it's really an auspicious excuse. This glass of wine is owed to you." Zhang Jing smiled slightly, and picked up the glass.

  The two toasted to signal, and then drank it down.

   After drinking a glass of wine, Zhu Ping'an felt a thick and sweet wine enter his stomach from his throat, and the aftertaste was very mellow.

   "How is this wine?" Zhang Jing asked with a smile.

   "It's mellow and sweet, with a long aftertaste. It's worthy of imperial wine. With the blessing of my lord, I'm lucky enough to drink the imperial wine. In the future, I will have another enviable conversation topic." Zhu Pingan replied with a slight smile.

"That's right. This wine is yellow wine fermented with red yeast rice. It has a long aftertaste, just like the great grace of the emperor. We, as subjects, should be like red yeast rice. We should not forget our responsibilities and work hard for the sake of the saints, the people of Ming Dynasty, and the people of Ming Dynasty. Lang Lang Qiankun contributes all his strength and will not change until death." Zhang Jing said with emotion.

   "Ping'an has been taught." Zhu Ping'an nodded vigorously.
