The birthday I have been preparing for for a long time finally starts today.
Unlike the Wei family, the Qin family is deserted. However, the only good news is that Qin Yi, the eldest son of the head of the Qin family, has also returned. It is worth mentioning that Qin Yi was also selected to enter the Imperial Capital Four. Ningwu Academy, one of the universities, brought great hope to the Qin family at that time.
Since Qin Yi came back, of course he also saw the deserted situation of the family, and immediately asked his father what happened?
Qin Hao, the head of the Qin clan, also said helplessly: "Son, our family is in decline now. This is all thanks to the Wei family, especially Wei Yu. This person may be your strong enemy in the future. If there is a chance, I hope You can." After saying that, he also made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Wei Yu, why does this name sound so familiar? I remembered it. It's the new genius of the Wei family? It seems that I came back with my mentor this time because of this incident," Qin Yi said coldly!
When Qin Hao heard his son say this, he also felt great pressure and couldn't help but ask: "Yi'er, you mean that Ningwu Academy may show favor to Wei Yu? Let him become a member of Ningwu Academy student?"
"I'm not very sure about this, but when I came back this time, the instructor seemed to have some thoughts about Wei Yu."
"Oh my god, it's already great to have Wei Qingyi in the Wei family. If there is another Wei Yu, is there any hope for our family to turn around?" Qin Hao also asked in a nonchalant manner.
Hearing his father's high evaluation of Wei Yu, Qin Yi immediately said angrily: "Father, don't want to raise other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige. Now that I have become a disciple of the elders of the school and have been valued, I I believe that given time, the Wei family will be destroyed by me."
Qin Hao was deeply gratified to hear that his son had such great ambitions. After all, he had mobilized the whole family to pave the way for his son, and he naturally hoped that his son could repay the family.
However, before that, Qin Hao could not wait for his son to help him defeat the Wei family. Today's banquet was destined to not be simple.
Later, under the leadership of Qin Hao, all the senior officials of the Qin clan rushed to the Wei family. However, Qin Hao did not let everyone enter together, but only brought two elders and his son Qin Yi, while the others were waiting outside, as if they were playing a big game of chess.
The Wei family was very lively today, so Wei Zhuang directly sent Wei Feng, Wei Ping to receive them outside, and Wei Canglan to host the banquet.
When the two brothers Wei Feng and Wei Ping saw the Qin people from a distance, Wei Ping could no longer hold back his emotions, because after many days of investigation, he determined that the person who blocked him from transporting medicinal materials a few days ago was the head of the Qin family.
When the enemy met, they were extremely jealous. Wei Feng also felt Wei Ping's murderous intention. However, Wei Feng was sober at this time and knew that today was a great day for the Wei family, so he touched Wei Ping with his arm to signal him to calm down. Although Ping was very angry, he also knew that now was not the time for revenge, so the two of them straightened their expressions.
The head of the Qin clan naturally felt Wei Ping's murderous intent just now, and guessed that he might have known something, but he acted as if nothing had happened, and laughed loudly and said: "Oh, Elder Wei Feng and Wei Ping, congratulations. , today is the birthday of the leader of your Wei clan, I came uninvited, I hope I didn’t offend you."
Wei Feng and Wei Ping were both old-fashioned. After gathering themselves, they smiled and replied: "Clan Chief Qin, you're welcome. The list for this banquet was not drawn up by me and the other two. There must be something wrong within the family. I hope Chief Qin won't do it." It’s just weird”
In this way, after a few people were polite, they still asked the servants to introduce the Qin people into the mansion.
Next, waves of people came, all of whom were prominent figures in Maple City. After all, the Wei family's current strength was obvious to all, so there were quite a few people who came to curry favor.
When it was almost noon, a servant outside shouted: "Congratulations on the arrival of the Lord of the City!"
Facing this distinguished guest, even Wei Feng and Wei Ping went out to greet him very respectfully. First of all, the status of the city lord is very special, because every city lord is personally appointed by the imperial capital, so the backstage is relatively tough. Secondly, The city lord is powerful. If he can get the city lord's support, it will naturally be beneficial to the development of the family. In the end, it is because the city lord helped Weiping a few days ago.
Although helping Wei Ping before was motivated by profit, if you think about it carefully, it is naturally the best to be able to win over such a powerful man with money.
I saw Wei Feng saying respectfully: "Your Majesty the City Lord's visit to my Wei Mansion really makes our Wei Mansion shine. It would be disrespectful to greet you from afar, and disrespectful."
The city lord also said humbly: "What did Elder Wei say? I have heard a little bit about what happened to your Wei family recently. I am very lucky to be able to visit you today."
When the city lord and his party were brought in, Wei Canglan's face became extremely ugly at this moment, because he clearly remembered that he did not include the city lord in the guest list when he drafted it. First, the city lord's palace had always maintained neutrality. , and the second is that he once tried to win over the city lord, but he couldn't reach an agreement. And today the city lord came to attend Wei Zhuang's birthday, it was obviously someone who deliberately arranged it.
Is it Wei Feng and Wei Ping's method?
The last time the city lord was able to attend the coming-of-age ceremony of the Wei Mansion, it was because Maple City had an unwritten rule that the city lord's manor must also participate in any coming-of-age ceremony for the younger generation of a big family. This would involve recommending potential juniors to participate in the ceremony. The annual selection of the four universities in the imperial capital. This is also equivalent to understanding the abilities of the children of each major family in advance.
When Wei Zhuang saw the city lord coming in person, he stood up very happily and said happily: "I didn't expect that the city lord can also come to participate in my birthday. I am very grateful."
The city lord did not put on airs and said kindly: "Mr. Wei, what are you talking about? You and I are both part of Maple City. Today is your birthday. I should come to attend both emotionally and ritually."
Having said that, Wei Zhuang also politely placed the city lord in the chief position.
The sudden arrival of the city lord not only made Wei Canglan unnatural, but also made the head of the Qin family look very ugly.
He cursed silently in his heart: "What the hell is Wei Canglan doing? Why did he even recruit the city lord? How should the plan proceed now?"
When everyone was ready, Wei Mansion's birthday banquet officially began. A group of dancers were singing and dancing at the banquet, which was very lively, and everyone in the audience also stood up one by one to congratulate Wei Zhuang.
However, can this banquet really be passed so easily?
