“Not really.” Su Xiaoxiao looked at the door. “Did you bring the wine?”

“I’ve brought it! I’ve brought it!” Second Master Shen quickly asked the waiter to carry a few wine jars over. “Try it on my account! However, it might not taste good. Our Shen family has always been brewing wine. Unfortunately, we can’t win against our competitor.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Your competitor is…”

Second Master Shen said, “The Qian family. The leader of the Five Elements Alliance is the Old Master of the Qian family. The Qian family’s wine is famous in the Western Jin. There’s no restaurant in the Western Capital that doesn’t sell his family’s wine. Our Shen family can’t beat it with money, and the taste is inferior to it.”

Su Xiaoxiao tasted the wine in every wine jar.

Second Master Shen looked at her expectantly. “These jars are made with the new prescription. How about it?” Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Do you want me to tell the truth?”

Second Master Shen was speechless.

Second Master Shen raised his hand. “You don’t have to say anything. I’ve already guessed it.”

Su Xiaoxiao had tasted the Qian family’s wine. The last time she had wine at the Dongting Restaurant, it was the wine supplied by the Qian family’s winery. Her alcohol tolerance was poor, so she only dipped her chopsticks in it and tasted it. It was spicy and strong in her mouth.

The taste was indeed not something the Shen family’s wine could compare to.

Second Master Shen smiled bitterly. “I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. I’m the second son in the family and have a brother above me. He’s the heir of the Shen family. He picked out everything that was given to me. When he gave me the winery back then, I expected it to not be so simple… How could he bear to give it to me? As expected… Actually, it was my father who saw that I had curried favor with Mr. Zhuge and instructed my brother to give me some business.” So there was such a sad experience behind his big yellow gold chain.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Don’t you still have the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion?

Second Master Shen told her the truth. “Mother left the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion for me.’

A poor, rich boy…

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, “Do you want to start a business?”

Second Master Shen sighed. “Of course I want to, but I don’t have the ability.. Big Brother is right. I should be a rich second-generation heir. Anyway, we’re biological brothers. He will support me for the rest of my life.”

“Bring me a brush and ink,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

Second Master Shen did not know what she wanted, but he still got someone to bring the Four Treasures of the Study over.

Su Xiaoxiao picked up her pen and wrote a prescription. “Since the Qian family’s winery business is already unshakable, why use your shortcomings to compete with others’ strengths? Why don’t you take another path and open up a new market?”

Second Master Shen took it and took a look. “Medicine wine?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “To remove rheumatism, treat bone pain, soothe the meridians, live blood, and extend your life.”

Second Master Shen said awkwardly, “Will… will this work?”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, “I’m not sure about other people’s medicinal wine. My medicinal wine will definitely have an effect. In addition, I didn’t give you the prescription for nothing. Invest 20% of the technology.”

“Alright…” Second Master Shen accepted the prescription hesitantly. It was not that he felt that it was more than 20%, but he seriously suspected that he could not do this medicinal wine business.

Forget it. Anyway, the sorghum wine business had not started. There was no harm in trying something else. At most, he would be beaten up by his father and mocked by his brother.

He had been a wastrel for so many years, so he didn’t mind being a prodigal once or twice.

Su Xiaoxiao bade farewell to Second Master Shen and returned to the inn.

After using up the anti-inflammatory medicine for the young royal prince, she went into the pharmacy to get the medicine, but she accidentally discovered a new bottle of medicine—immunoglobulin punch.

Generally speaking, the health supplements in the pharmacy were all black technology. The efficacy far exceeded that of some prescription drugs.

She did not come out early or late. She insisted on waiting for the young royal prince’s smallpox to recover. Was she afraid that she would not be able to treat the young royal prince’s smallpox and waste this bottle of medicine?

Su Xiaoxiao looked at it disdainfully.

After replenishing the medicine, Su Xiaoxiao took out a charcoal pen and drew a Five Animal Play.

The young royal prince’s weakness was brought about by his mother’s womb, but it was not impossible to improve. Compared to letting him stay in the room all year round, Su Xiaoxiao was more inclined to let him come out and exercise.

Her painting lasted until night.

The three little ones ran up and called her to Uncle’s place for dinner.

She smiled. “Okay, here we go.”

The moon was dark and windy.

Feng Xiaoran left the West Capital and returned to his courtyard.

Sai Huatuo had slipped away. His grandson was gone, and even the Snow Region Heavenly Silk and Purple Lingzhi had been stolen.

He was so angry that he vomited blood and swept all the tea sets on the table to the ground.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. It was slow and heavy, making one’s hair stand on end.

“Who’s here? Go take a look,” he instructed impatiently. However, there was no movement in the courtyard.

“Are you deaf?” he snapped.

There was still no movement. He pulled open the door and walked out, only to see his guards fall to the ground.

When did this happen? He actually didn’t notice!

Knock, knock, knock.

The knock came again.

He hesitated for a moment before pulling out the dagger at his waist. He walked forward warily and slowly pulled open the door.

The next day, Su Yuan came to the inn with the news that the Western Jin Emperor had organized a banquet for them.

“You guys go to the banquet too. Last time, Wei Ting left halfway. This time, you have to show your face.”

That was only natural.

It would be unreasonable not to meet the Western Jin Emperor after coming to the Western Capital.

The two of them changed their clothes and brought the three children along.

“Zhuge Qing is going too, right?” Su Yuan asked.

Wei Ting said, “Second Brother won’t go with us.”

Su Yuan nodded. “That’s true. At the last moment, avoid suspicion if possible. Don’t let anything go wrong and return to Great Zhou safely.”

The group got into the carriage and went to the palace.

This was their last banquet in the West Capital. If nothing went wrong, the Great Zhou diplomatic mission would leave in three days.

The three little ones were extremely excited and jumped around the carriage.

“Do you like the West Capital?” Su Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.

“I do,” the three little ones replied in unison.

They were still young and might not understand some things, but they understood that in the West Capital, they could follow their mother anywhere.

The carriage of the Princess’s Residence was already waiting at the entrance of the palace. Yuwen Xi and the vounz princess had arrived earlv and had alreadv entered. Moxie and the others were at the door.

Su Yuan got into the carriage and entered the palace..
