"The taste of snow wine can't be tasted by sipping." Empress Xiande said with a smile, "it's sweet to drink in such a bowl."

"That's how you used to drink?" Emperor Yongle frowned: "nonsense."

"After all, my wife and I drank alone, and no one saw me. I didn't care what I did." Empress Xiande disagreed, holding a small wine jar in one hand to pour wine for Emperor Yongle.

Yongle Emperor wanted to say something, but he wanted to say something. He took a deep look at Xiande empress and was silent.

Queen Xiande wanted to brew snow wine every year, but it was the first time that Emperor Yongle accompanied her to drink. Over the years, she has been a person to cook tea, a person to make wine, flowers bloom and fall, in the palace freely alive. She did a good job as a queen, but it was almost forgotten that she was just a woman and would be lonely. More often than not, she could only taste the taste of loneliness alone, as if the wine tasted slightly astringent.

Both aunt Tao and Duke Deng stood far away. It seemed that they wanted to leave this rare time to the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager. Empress Xiande handed the wine bowl to Emperor Yongle and said with a smile, "every time Jingxing comes to the Palace Banquet, she likes to drink with this wine bowl. I see the emperor seems very envious. I don't have to worry about so much tonight. Only when I'm here, I won't laugh at the emperor's failure. "

"Joke, I have nothing to envy." Yongle Emperor said, then picked up the wine bowl, some critical look, but still along the bowl eaves sipped.

Seeing this, empress Xiande couldn't help laughing and said, "what is your majesty doing? You should learn from my concubine." She picked up the bowl and drank it with her head up. Even such movements, done by her, are very elegant and pleasing to the eyes.

Emperor Yongle gently coughed: "nonsense." The eyes are the following empress Xiande, gentle and very.

Empress Xiande poured herself another bowl and said with a smile, "when I was a child, I followed my father to read history books. I admired those heroes in the books. They were handsome and heroic. They ate meat and drink a lot in troubled times. They felt that such a life would not be wasted in this world. My concubine thought that she would marry such a hero in the future. She would make tea for him by day and drink with him at night. " She said this, her eyes shining, as if after those days, back to her own young girl, quarreling to ask for wine from her brother.

"And then?" Asked Emperor Yongle.

"Later, my wife married the emperor. The emperor refused to eat meat and drink a lot. It was not a natural and unrestrained thing, not to mention the coarse and the subtle. On the contrary, I was very indifferent. I regret it."

Emperor Yongle squinted at her, her cheeks gradually dyed two faint, I do not know whether drunk or not, Yongle Emperor thought, she must be drunk, sober queen Xiande, will not say such childish, critical words.

He said, "don't you say you're a good drinker? How can you be so drunk in front of me

"I'm not drunk." Empress Xiande said: "I want to be drunk, but I have to wake up after so many years."

Emperor Yongle couldn't laugh.

"It's really bad luck to marry the emperor. Those who are well behaved but want to share their husbands with countless women are those who have concubines of high families, and whose wives have children. I don't even have my own children. It's not very good to get married. " Empress Xiande said with a smile, "so I envy the princess. It is not easy for her to live as a princess. She has a lot to worry about. However, she is luckier than her concubine. She still has a choice. Jingxing treats her well. Jingxing is not as cruel as the emperor. "
