I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 346 I won't let you drink too much! Don't worry!

In the capital city, there are many heavily guarded places, but few are more heavily guarded than the place the Sixth Princess was about to enter.

Ye Xian waved goodbye to the fans in the live stream, handed the account to Qiu Mama in Haizhou to start selling goods, and ended the short live stream himself.

"Your self-discipline is really good."

Li Yunxi remained silent throughout, but his heart was filled with emotion.

With Ye Xian's current fame and income, it wouldn't matter if he didn't do live streams; his fans wouldn't say anything, and his income wouldn't be much lower.

However, Ye Xian has maintained a live streaming frequency of once every three days. Even if he has just finished participating in a program, he will log on to greet his fans.

It must be said that Ye Xian's achievements in just five months are not entirely due to his talent.

"Since you've chosen this profession, you have to stick with it and not work half-heartedly."

Ye Xian looked out the window as the luxury car drove along a wide, tree-lined avenue and slowly entered a courtyard.

The vermilion walls, the neat courtyard, the majestic hall, the towering ancient trees, the magnificent palace lanterns, the enormous dragon fish, the ancient stone tables, chairs, and steps, all bearing the marks of time, tell Ye Xian about the 1,500-year-old history of the Tang Dynasty.

Thinking of the history books and royal records he had read, Ye Xian realized that the courtyard he was in was the palace villa for princes and princesses after they came of age, commonly known as the princess's residence.

They also had palaces within the imperial palace, but after reaching adulthood, they would generally move to other residences to avoid suspicion. Only the emperor and the crown prince were allowed to remain in the imperial palace.

As Li Yunxi got out of the car, Ye Xian looked around the courtyard and joked with her, "I thought you were going to have dinner with the Emperor today."

Li Yunxi led Ye Xian toward the main hall in the courtyard, casually explaining, "The more holidays there are, the less likely our family is to get together."

Ye Xian paused for a moment, then suddenly realized.

During festivals and holidays, the emperor and his princes and princesses would travel to various parts of the Tang Dynasty for inspection tours, which was actually their busiest time.

Looking at Li Yunxi's head held high, Ye Xian suddenly understood why the Sixth Princess had invited him to dinner.

As the only unmarried princess, she must feel quite lonely on days like these.

Upon entering the main hall, the princess's steward had been waiting for them for a long time. She first handed them hot towels, and then offered them mouthwash.

Once everything was settled, all the service staff left, leaving only Li Yunxi and Ye Xian sitting at the dining table in the main hall.

"hot pot?"

Ye Xian had thought that since he had come to the princess's residence, he would at least be able to eat some delicacies, but who knew it would be hot pot again.

"What's wrong? You don't like it?"

Li Yunxi changed into a set of home clothes, losing the dignified and elegant demeanor she displayed at the Dragon Boat Festival gala, and gaining a touch of feminine charm.

Li Yunxi became the dream lover of the entire Tang Dynasty not only because of her power and status, nor just because of her money and connections, but more so because of her unparalleled beauty.

Some people may care about material possessions, but for men, looks are always more important than anything else.

Even though Ye Xian is surrounded by many female celebrities and artists, and has grown up with a beautiful childhood sweetheart, Ye Xian doesn't dare to look at Li Yunxi too much, for fear that he will fall in love and be unable to extricate himself.

"I was thinking that we just had hot pot at my place a few days ago, but I didn't expect that it would be hot pot again at your place."

Li Yunxi poured the beef and mutton into the pot, and amidst the steaming smoke, casually remarked, "I didn't enjoy the meal that day."

Ye Xian hesitated, unsure how to respond, so he changed the subject, asking, "What are your hobbies, Your Highness?"

"A straight man of steel!"

Li Yunxi muttered something under her breath, then said, "I'm usually quite busy, so when I have some free time, I like to play the guzheng..."

Just then, Li Yunxi's phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, Li Yunxi snorted, "Your matter has been resolved."

Ye Xian was secretly pleased, but seeing Li Yunxi's expression, he realized that she had been interrupted, so he quickly said, "Let's deal with it tomorrow, it's not a big deal anyway."

"How can your matter be considered a trivial matter?"

Li Yunxi rolled her eyes at Ye Xian and answered the phone.

Her alluring appearance and words made Ye Xian's heart skip a beat.

"...Okay, I understand. Just handle it however you need to."

After hanging up the phone, seeing Ye Xian's somewhat anxious eyes, Li Yunxi suddenly wanted to tease the young man: "Want to know who it is?"

"what?"

Ye Xian didn't understand Li Yunxi's meaning, but he saw Li Yunxi take out a bottle of wine from under the table, which was the Drunken Red Pavilion.

"If you want to know, have a drink with me."

Looking at the teasing Sixth Princess, Ye Xian felt a little unsure of himself: "I need to protect my voice."

Li Yunxi opened the bottle and began pouring the wine into the decanter, glancing at Ye Xian as she did so: "Are you sure singers can't drink?"

Ye Xian chuckled awkwardly. This excuse might fool a layman, but it wouldn't fool Li Yunxi, an expert.

Can singers drink alcohol?

The answer is yes.

Can drink.

As long as you don't sing immediately after drinking or sing while drinking, don't drink ice-cold beer, and don't drink excessively, the impact on your voice won't be that significant.

Moreover, Ye Xian is currently at the peak of his physical condition, so a little bit of alcohol won't have a significant impact on him.

The main reason he never drank alcohol, besides his mother's advice, was that he was afraid he would reveal his secret of being a time traveler while drunk.

Ye Xian could only bring up his deceased mother: "My mother didn't like my father drinking, so she never let me drink when I was little."

Li Yunxi laughed: "You're so old, and you're still a mama's boy? No wonder you could write 'Listen to Mom'."

That was too ruthless. That statement was like a nuclear bomb, leaving Ye Xian speechless even if he wanted to refute it.

After pouring one bottle of wine, Li Yunxi picked up another: "In 'When,' you wrote, 'Singing and drinking to express the joy in my heart, seizing the prime of youth with passion,' and in 'Laughing at the World,' you wrote, 'Singing and drinking to the world, I only wish to be happy until old age,' and in 'Farewell,' you wrote, 'A pot of turbid wine exhausts the remaining joy, tonight's farewell dream is cold.'"

Can you honestly say you've never drunk alcohol? Could someone who's never drunk alcohol write lyrics like this? This kind of unrestrained spirit could only have been achieved by the legendary poet, swordsman, and poet Li Bai.

Li Yunxi was like an old hunter in the deep mountains, peeling away Ye Xian's disguise layer by layer.

Ye Xian felt like a little white rabbit, trembling under the hunter's gun.

How should I answer?

Should I tell her that I didn't write such a good song because I was drunk, but that I have a music library from another world in my head?

Li Yunxi gently placed the wine dispenser in front of Ye Xian, and the words that came out of her fiery red lips left Ye Xian speechless once again: "Isn't it a bit of a pity that a fine man of the Tang Dynasty has never touched a drop of wine in his entire life?"

"You don't indulge in wine or women, do you expect me to recommend you to a temple outside Chang'an to become a monk?"

Ye Xian was defeated.

A complete defeat.

Unable to refute the argument, he picked up his wine glass under the old hunter's patient persuasion.

"Just one drink, I really can't drink any more, I really can't drink alcohol."

Li Yunxi giggled, like a smug little fox.

"Okay, I won't let you drink too much! Don't worry!"
