The king sealed the leftover grapes in clay pots, and to prevent them from being eaten, he specially labeled them "poison". Unexpectedly, the concubine wanted to find short-sightedness and secretly drank the "poison", but she did not expect that since then, her temperament had changed greatly, and she had taken advantage of the king's lack of attention to quietly offer the "poison" to him to drink...

The persian king loved to eat wildly picked grapes, but at that time, there was no artificial planting, and there was no greenhouse, and the grapes were all tributes that the people went deep into the mountains and worked hard to find and offer. But the grapes only ripen in the autumn, and the harvest period is just over a month, thinking that there are more than 300 days a year, and the grapes cannot be eaten, and the king is sad.

The clever courtier, well aware of the king's troubles, advised the king to put all the grapes he could not eat into clay pots and place them in the cellar to keep them fresh, and when he wanted to eat them, the servants would take them out.

In this way, the full 10 cans of grapes were used in the cellar, but the king was really worried about this delicious grape, and would let the servants steal it, in order to prevent this situation from happening, he supported the next person, left and right, and finally wrote the word "poison" on the jar satisfactorily.

"Poison, still no one dares to do anything," thinking of doing such a proud thing, the king hummed a little song and left leisurely.

But according to Murphy's Law: the more you don't want to do something, the more likely it is to happen. The king's grapes were naturally not spared.

At that time, the newly harvested grapes had been marketed, and the king had long forgotten the several cans of "poison" in the cellar, but in fact he did not know that the grapes at this time had naturally fermented in the years and become wine.

At this time, the king's favorite concubine, Princess Lingping, secretly took "poison" under the wrong circumstances, which triggered an interesting story that has been passed down to this day.

Princess Lingping, when she was young, was deeply favored by the king. But the flowers are not red, with the growth of age, the concubine's appearance is no longer, the old and fading she, naturally can not compete with the water hibiscus who just entered the palace, plus the princess has been around the king for many years, did not give birth to a son and a half daughter, can not enjoy the treatment of the mother and son, and gradually was snubbed and alienated by the king.

Recalling the first time the two met, the king held himself in the palm of his hand and cared for him, but now he was self-pitying. A huge sense of loss made the concubine sad and broken, often crying on the pillow, suffering from depression.

One day, when I was desperate, thinking about finding a decent way to die for myself, I remembered that last year the king had put some "poison" in the cellar. She thought to herself, if she wanted to compare other ways of dying, drinking poison was at least painless, so Princess Lingping opened the lid of the jar in despair.

Wow, a strong fragrance wafted in, shaking with a spoon, the bright red liquid, in the light, shining with starlight. The concubine thought of leaving with such a fragrant "poison", and her mood was immediately very happy, so she did not hesitate to use a spoon, scooped a full spoon, and drank it all.

The juice from the initial sourness that enters the mouth to the throat, but slowly becomes soft and silky, and the rich fruit aroma spreads in the body for a long time.

The taste was so wonderful that I thought that one spoonful of medicine was not enough, so I continued to drink a few spoonfuls until I was slightly dizzy and my body became lighter.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was still a hint of consciousness, the princess stepped all the way on the cotton floor, returned to the palace, lay on the bed, and gradually closed her eyes and lost consciousness while waiting for the arrival of the god of death.

As a result, the next day, the princess woke up and was shocked that she was still alive. When I was surprised, licking the corners of my mouth, the afterscent of wine still reverberated in my mouth.

Thinking of such a delicious juice, the princess quietly moved a crock pot, hid it in the palace, and decided to drink some every night.

Who could have predicted that after a period of time, the concubine's face was gradually rosy, her skin tightened Q-bomb, and the second spring returned dreamily.

The king also sensed the change in her concubine and regained his favor with her. Of course, the princess also wanted the king to be able to relax and rest, and took advantage of the situation to present this wonderful drink to the king, and told him that it was the "poison" he hid in the cellar, so that she would once again look like a peach blossom.

The king was amazed, it turned out that I had put grapes, how it turned into juice, so he decided to try a glass of wine, and sure enough, a feeling of ease and pleasure came to his heart, and the fatigue of dealing with government affairs on weekdays suddenly disappeared.

The poison that made the princess gain favor again was the Qiong Pulp Jade Liquid Wine that had been handed down from the Tang Dynasty to the present. Because of this story, wine has since had the nickname of "love poison" that makes lovers change their minds.
