Not long after Pan Wenxiong and Pan Lizhao left, someone else came to the Pan family.
Coming back this time is Pan Wenxiong's eldest brother and Pan Lizhao's biological father, Pan Wenguang.
Pan Wenguang looked like he was nearly fifty years old, and as soon as he saw him, he knew who Pan Lizhao's appearance was.
What he looks like now is what Pan Lizhao looked like when he was old.
Pan Wenguang was wearing an eggplant red round-neck robe, black boots with cloud heads, and several small and exquisite jade gourds tied around his waist. His cheeks were slightly red, and he looked like he had eaten wine at noon.
"Prince Mu came to Cangzhou in great numbers. It was our fault for neglecting him." Pan Wenguang said, "My younger brother and Quanzi are ignorant. Please don't blame them."
Princess Huizhen came to seek refuge with them, so it didn't matter if she didn't go. But if Prince Mu didn't go, the world would definitely laugh at them because they had such a good opportunity but didn't know how to seize it. Even if he knew it afterwards, no wonder they weren't? They always have to do some obvious things.
Mu Tingan sat still: "There is nothing to blame. I never like to attend banquets. There is no need to be polite, Uncle Pan."
"If Prince Mu doesn't go, he will blame our Pan family for not providing good hospitality." Pan Wenguang frowned.
Yao Erlang came in and spoke a few words in Mu Ting's ear.
Mu Ting smiled slightly and agreed to Pan Wenguang's invitation: "Okay."
He stood up and brushed off the non-existent dust on his robe: "For reasons and reasons, since Princess Huizhen is my adopted sister, she will live in Cangzhou in the future, and as my adopted brother, I will get At the birthday banquet of the head of the Pan family, I asked the head of the Pan family to take care of my step sister from now on."
Pan Wenguang didn't think too much. He was very happy to see Mu Ting agreed. He led the way and politely asked Mu Ting to get in the car.
The night has fallen, and the lights in Pan's courtyard have begun to turn on. There seemed to be two uncomfortable people standing at the carriage. Pan Wenguang was old, and before he could see clearly, he heard the two people say: "Brother Wenguang."
The voices of the two people were very familiar. Pan Wenguang was startled, and Chang Sui beside him said hurriedly: "It's Pan Wenyong and Pan Wenwu."
Shouldn't the two of them be drunk in Alley 12? Why did you wake up? They were clearly told not to appear in front of people from the capital.
Mu Shizi was at the side, so Pan Wenguang couldn't question him, so he had to smile and reply: "So you are here, which makes it easier for us to find you. Since you are all here, let's accompany Mu Shizi to the Pan family's main house for a birthday banquet."
Mu Ting said: "I am the sworn brother of Princess Huizhen. My two uncles will ride with me. Uncle Pan, please lead the way."
Pan Wenyong and Pan Wenwu were pushed into the car by Yao Erlang and Hong Wu, followed by Mu Ting.
As soon as Mu Ting got in the car, he did not exchange greetings with the two of them. Instead, he slowly pulled out a dagger from his boot and wiped it leisurely: "Tell me, why have you spent so many years in Cangzhou City?" So miserable?"
Pan Wenyong looked at the sharp dagger and licked his lips: "Who are you?"
"Why do you ask?"
Pan Wenyong seemed to have summoned up great courage: "How can you, your Excellency, be able to fight someone who can't even fight against the Princess? If you are just an ordinary person, I advise you to leave Cangzhou as soon as possible... You said you are Huizhen's sworn brother , then you take her away, as far away from Cangzhou as possible."
"Is that person, the high school prime minister?"
Mu Ting suddenly asked.
The journey from the Pan family's villa to the Pan family's main courtyard was as long as his whole life. When the carriage finally arrived, Pan Wenguang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Shizi jumped out of the car first, and then helped Pan Wenyong and Pan Wenwu down very considerately.
Pan Wenguang hurried forward to greet them, glared at Pan Wenyong and Pan Wenwu out of Mu Ting's sight, and then said with a smile on his face: "Prince Mu is really approachable."
"Oh, Uncle Pan used to think I was superior?" Mu Ting asked.
"No, no." Pan Wenguang had already felt that Mu Ting was targeting him.
Pan Wenyong and Pan Wenwu must have talked about something, and Pan Wenguang glanced at them dissatisfiedly.
Fortunately, Mu Ting's eyes were quickly attracted to the Pan Family Courtyard: "Is this the Pan Family Courtyard? It's quite impressive."
From the high walls of the compound, the faint sound of theater music could be heard. It can be heard that today is Mr. Pan’s birthday party, and the Pan family has invited a theater troupe.
Pan Wenguang was about to be humble, but Mu Ting had already raised his legs and helped Pan Wenyong and Pan Wenwu in.
Pan Wenguang summoned his attendants and said with a heavy gaze: "Quickly check, how did they find this person?"
After giving the instructions, Pan Wenguang smiled and walked in closely behind Mu Ting and others. Mu Ting had quite a few people with him, including four followers and two young ladies. The attendant Pan Wenguang didn't pay attention, but he took a second look at the two young ladies. The two young ladies were quite interesting, one was skinny and the other was plump. Mu Shizi wants it even if he is fat or thin. Pan Wenguang was about to take another look when the skinny little lady glared at him, and Pan Wenguang quickly looked away. Hey, the little lady from the capital is really fierce.
The main courtyard of the Pan family was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and "Farewell My Concubine" was being performed on a makeshift stage, and a fight was going on.
The guests under the stage did not sit obediently, but wandered around Pan's house.
Mu Ting was a serious guest, so he was naturally led by Pan Wenguang, who first met Pan Chengcai, the head of the Pan family. What's more, the four followers of Prince Mu were carrying a wooden box that looked extremely heavy.
Prince Mu's congratulatory gift must be very valuable.
Mu Ting saw Pan Chengcai, the head of the Pan family, from a distance. Today is Pan Chengcai's seventieth birthday. Seventy is already an advanced age, but Pan Chengcai still looks energetic and looks very young. He wore a forehead bandage studded with rubies, and his eyes were slightly gleaming. He actually looked younger than Pan Wenguang.
No wonder she gave birth to Pan Wenxiong at the age of fifty.
Sitting on his left side is a beautiful woman who looks to be in her thirties. Her body is slightly tilted, her head is covered with pearls, her lips are very red, and her face is somewhat similar to Pan Wenxiong. It seems that this This woman is Pan Wenxiong's mother and Pan Chengcai's stepmother.
Sitting on the right side of Pan Chengcai's head was a middle-aged man with a thin face. He was wearing a gray coarse robe, but his expression was very haughty. Behind him stood two men who looked like servants. They were also wearing gray coarse robes, but their expressions were exactly the same as their master's.
Sitting opposite him was Lu Shaoting.
Lu Shaoting had a smile on his face, as if looking at the stage, but his peripheral vision seemed to be staring at the man in gray robe opposite him.
Mu Ting stopped and was about to ask Pan Wenguang who the gray-robed man was when he suddenly heard a scream from the stage: "What are you doing?!"
The Pan family, which was full of laughter and laughter just now, suddenly seemed to be choked by someone, and there was silence.
But on the stage, there was a little lady climbing on the rickety stage, screaming: "If you force me to marry that person again, I will jump from here!"
"Qing Niang, you have to calm down. If you jump from here, you will die!" an old voice shouted.
A strong wind blew, and the little lady screamed and fell off the stage!
The guests screamed!
Mu Ting looked at the man in gray robe again, only to find that the man in gray robe and the two boys were gone.
Fortunately, the stage was not high and the little lady fell down and was still alive.
Pan Wenguang was furious: "Seventeen families, what are you doing! Today's birthday banquet of the head of the family has been completely ruined by you!"
Pan Chengcai snorted coldly, glanced at Pan Wenguang, and walked away.
Pan Wenguang said hurriedly: "Father, I have invited Prince Mu here, please stay here!"
"You invited me here, you can just entertain yourself." Pan Chengcai said.
"Hey, Your Majesty, we don't seem to be very popular." The skinny little lady next to Mu Ting said.
