The Great Tang Dynasty: Heavenly Official Bestows Blessings, Starting with a Little Rhinoceros Offer

Chapter 43 Li Shimin drinks cola, mistaking it for celestial nectar.

Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun smiled and said, her tone full of affection.

"Alright, alright, Mother forgot."

"Our Sizi is now a disciple of the Divine Lord."

"He's a little fairy now, different from ordinary children!"

Hearing her mother's praise, Xiao Sizi smiled a little shyly.

She covered her slightly flushed face with her two little hands and squirmed in her mother's arms.

"hey-hey!"

Even if I become incredibly powerful, I'll still be my mother's little duck!

Empress Zhangsun felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing these thoughtful words. She smiled.

At this moment, Li Shimin, who had been standing to the side, also came over.

He glanced at his daughter, then asked hesitantly.

"Sizi."

"Tell Aja."

"Is it really because he drank the immortal elixir bestowed by the divine lord that his body has changed so much?"

Li Shimin pointed to the red jar on the table, his eyes filled with inquiry.

The little guy nodded excitedly without hesitation.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"I just drank some cola!"

"After Sizi finished drinking it, she felt a warm feeling in her stomach."

"Then my whole body felt warm, as if I had the strength to break free."

"You've become incredibly awesome!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin immediately looked at the red jar next to him.

Their gaze seemed to be firmly drawn in, unable to be shifted even slightly.

He originally thought it was just a delicious drink, but he never expected it to have such an immediate and miraculous effect!

It is astonishing that a frail two-year-old girl could suddenly possess such an amazing physique.

At this moment, the little guy said happily.

"Ah!"

"Sizi brought you some cola!"

"You can drink it too!"

"After drinking it, you can become as awesome as Sizi!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's throat involuntarily bobbed.

Although his eyes were filled with longing, he maintained the dignity of an emperor.

His reverence for the gods still made him somewhat hesitant.

Li Shimin solemnly waved his hand, declining the offer.

"no."

"This was bestowed upon the rhinoceros by the divine lord."

"This is your opportunity; how can we take advantage of it so casually?"

"Wouldn't it be a sin to anger the God?"

The little guy responded to this seriously.

"No way!"

"This was said by Master Hu himself!"

"Master said that Father and Mother can try it together!"

"Master is very good, he won't get angry!"

Li Shimin was overjoyed when he saw Li Shimin raise his eyebrows slightly.

"Sizi, did the Divine Lord really say that?"

Little Sizi nodded vigorously.

"Really!"

"Sizi doesn't lie!"

Now everyone looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.

Seeing this, Xiao Sizi got down from Empress Zhangsun's arms and ran over.

With her little hands, she picked up all the cans of cola from the table.

Now, Li Shimin, Li Lizhi, and Empress Zhangsun each received a jar.

"Give!"

"One for Father, one for Mother, and one for Sister!"

When everyone held the Coca-Cola cans in their hands, the first thing they felt was the amazing texture.

It feels cool and refreshing, and the material is both sturdy and lightweight.

It was printed with exquisite and vibrant patterns and words, though I couldn't understand what it said.

But the craftsmanship was so exquisite that it was simply breathtaking.

The design is exquisite, and you can feel the liquid inside when you shake it.

After a moment of reflection, Li Shimin asked his daughter again to confirm.

"Sizi, did the God really agree to let us drink this... Celestial... Cola?"

Li Shimin tried to imitate the words his daughter was using, but his pronunciation sounded somewhat slurred and awkward.

"Really!"

Now Li Shimin was completely relieved.

After all, even a mortal emperor would crave this celestial elixir from the gods.

Moreover, judging from the change in the little girl's jump just now, the effect was incredibly obvious.

However, when Li Shimin wanted to drink it, he was at a loss for what to do.

He held the red jar, turning it over and over to examine it.

This kind of fully enclosed aluminum can was a complete mystery to these ancient people.

Li Shimin looked at the cola can from left to right, but couldn't find a way to open it.

"How...how am I supposed to eat this?"

Seeing my usually dignified father scratching his head and looking at a jar, I was amazed.

The little boy next to him covered his mouth and chuckled.

"oops!"

"You silly goose!"

As she spoke, she dashed over.

She stretched out her little hand and took the Coke can from the other person's hand.

Then, mimicking Jiang Lin's earlier actions, he extended his little finger and gripped the pull ring.

"Watch closely!"

There was a soft snap, followed by a hiss.

With a gentle press, the seal was opened.

The gas inside the newly opened can was released under pressure and rushed out instantly.

It even startled Li Shimin, who instinctively shrank back.

Xiao Sizi excitedly handed over the cola.

"Ah, you drink duck!"

"If this steam comes out, then it's ready to drink!"

Li Shimin took the jar, brought the notch to his nose, and carefully smelled it.

Suddenly, a strange yet sweet caramel smell entered my nostrils.

This was a scent he had never experienced before; it was somewhat pungent, yet it made him want to take a second sniff.

I couldn't help but marvel at how unique it was, truly a divine creation.

Then, under the expectant gazes of everyone, Li Shimin picked up the jar.

I tilted my head back and slowly poured the cola into my mouth through the opening.

The moment you put a Coke in your mouth, you see those bubbles filled with carbon dioxide.

It exploded the moment it touched the tongue.

That dense, stimulating sensation filled my entire mouth.

This startled Li Shimin, and his eyes widened in shock.

Upon seeing this, Empress Zhangsun quickly spoke up.

"Your Majesty, how are you feeling?"

"Are you alright?"

After the initial shock, Li Shimin slowly swallowed the cola in his mouth.

The icy liquid slid down my throat, sending a shiver down my spine.

He then smacked his lips, seemingly savoring the memory.

"Guanyinbi, I...I don't quite know how to describe it."

"It's just very strange."

"It feels like...it feels like countless tiny things are jumping around in my mouth."

At this moment, Xiao Sizi nodded excitedly, with an expression that said, "I knew it."

"Does it feel like there's a fight going on between the sides of your tongue, darling?"

"Is it mommy?!"

Li Shimin savored the feeling of the bubbles swirling in his mouth; that tingling, numb sensation really did feel like he was fighting.

"right!"

"That's the feeling!"

Then he picked up the jar again and spoke.

"But I must say, this elixir is sweet and has a unique flavor."

"It's a bit stimulating at first, but the aftertaste is extremely sweet."

"Truly worthy of being a divine drink bestowed by the God."

Upon tasting it again, it was clear that I had been won over by the taste of the cola.

Without further hesitation, Li Shimin tilted his head back and poured the contents into his mouth.

This time, he drank much more.

He drank it non-stop, even though there were only a little over 300 milliliters in the can.

For an adult male, it's just a matter of a few big bites.

Li Shimin quickly finished the can of cola.

"belch--!"

After finishing the drink, I couldn't help but let out a long burp.

A wave of stale air was expelled, and I felt refreshed and invigorated.

However, when the jar in his hand was completely empty...

Li Shimin examined his body and frowned in confusion.

He clenched his fists and stretched his muscles.

Aside from some bloating in my stomach, I didn't feel any surge of power.

He then turned his head to look at the little girl who was blinking, and said with some confusion.

"Sizi!"

"Why didn't I feel that warm feeling you described, Father?"
