The patriarchs of other families also stepped forward to wish Nalan Lei a happy birthday. At this moment, there was another shout from outside the door.
"The head of the Su family in Suzhou comes to celebrate his birthday!"
Su Yuanhang led Su Rui and others in from the outside, and the guests in the courtyard also turned their attention to them.
"Junior Su Yuanhang wishes you a happy birthday on behalf of my father..."
Seeing Su Yuanhang's arrival, Nalan Shen smiled slightly and then went to greet him.
"Brother Su, it's been a long time since we said goodbye."
Some people know that Su Yuanhang once stayed in the capital for a period of time, while others don't.
"Yes, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Brother Nalan is still as charming as before. This is Su Rui, the dog. I brought him here today to see the world. Rui'er... I haven't met your uncles yet."
Ever since Suri became an eunuch, his whole person had become gloomy, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.
"Juniors have met all uncles."
His voice was a little sharp now, a big change from before.
"Okay, Brother Su, please take your seat quickly."
Listening to Su Rui's voice, Nalan Shen frowned slightly but said nothing.
"Su Zheng is quite good at taking a break. He went to Suzhou to enjoy the blessings. I'm really a little envious of him."
Nalan Lei, Su Zheng, Chen Rusheng and others had worked together in the capital.
"Brother Li, long time no see."
Su Yuanhang was placed at Li Wenliang's table. The two seemed very calm after meeting and just said hello briefly.
Chen Guanliang and the others also arrived outside the Nalan family's old house. After a few people got out of the car, Hu Fan looked up at the plaque on the door of Nalan's family, which read three words, Prince Gong's Mansion!
"Is this the residence of that powerful minister?"
Hu Fan looked at those three words and thought of the most powerful official in the Qing Dynasty.
"Yes, but this is not that person's mansion, but a small Prince Gong's mansion built by Nalan Lei himself, and the Nalan family is the descendant of that person."
Chen Guanliang explained to Hu Fan that the real Prince Gong's Mansion was not here at all.
"Let's go in. Calculating the time, it should start soon."
The four of them walked in with their birthday gifts. After seeing the invitation, the person greeting them at the door shouted loudly inside.
"The head of the Chen family in Suzhou came to celebrate his birthday!"
Those people inside had already taken their seats, and the birthday banquet was about to begin. At this time, Nalan Yingjie saw Chen Guanliang and others at the second door.
"Mr. Chen, one year has passed since we said goodbye to Suzhou that day. Time flies really fast."
Since the last auction held by Nalan Yingjie in Suzhou, he has not been back.
"Please come in quickly, my father and the others are in the hall."
After a brief exchange of greetings, they came to the courtyard and saw no less than 50 people from various families in the capital. In the inner hall were the heads of the four major families and their direct descendants.
"Haha...this is Brother Chen, right..."
Although Nalan Shen and Chen Guanliang have never met, this does not prevent them from knowing each other's details.
"Brother Nalan..."
The two stretched out their hands to each other and held each other tightly. If you didn't know better, you would have thought they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
"Junior Chen Guanliang wishes you a happy birthday on behalf of my father..."
Li Wenliang, Li Wendao and Su Yuanhang looked at Chen Guanliang's figure, and a hint of haze flashed in their eyes. They may not have thought that Chen Guanliang would come here to celebrate Nalan Lei's birthday.
"Well... although I have never met you, your father often praised you in front of me back then. It's true that a tiger father has no dog son. Take a seat."
Chen Guanliang was placed at the same table as Su Yuanhang and the three major families. This arrangement was very intriguing.
Hu Fan and the others came here as bodyguards and were not qualified to serve at the table, so they were placed in a side hall.
Looking at the patriarchs of the three major families in the inner hall, a bloodthirsty light flashed in Hu Fan's eyes, but he hid this light.
Hu Fan felt that there were no less than ten very obscure auras in this courtyard. They were hidden in every corner of the courtyard. These people were all in the master realm!
No wonder these people were not checked when they entered Nalan's house. With the existence of these people, there is no need to worry that they can do anything to threaten Nalan's family.
"Have a banquet!"
At this time, someone shouted loudly, and the servants of the Nalan family brought out dishes after dishes of delicacies, including everything from flying in the sky to walking on the ground and swimming in the sea.
"Senior Lei, this is a little thought from this junior. I wish you good health and a long life. Someone bring the things up!"
As soon as the banquet started, people were bringing birthday gifts one after another.
It can be said that as long as his birthday gift can be favored by Nalan Lei, his family will receive great benefits.
"This is a coral tree that I got in a deep sea."
At this time, someone brought in a colorful coral tree more than two meters high from outside. It was extremely beautiful.
"Old Zhao has really spent a lot of money. There is no way he can get this coral tree without 10 million..."
The man surnamed Zhao belongs to a relatively prominent family in the capital, and he bought his coral tree at a large price.
"It's very beautiful. Thank you, Master Zhao, for the gift."
Nalan Shen's eyes lit up when he looked at this coral tree. Such a complete and exquisite coral tree is really rare. This shows that the Zhao family leader is serious.
At this moment, the Zhao family leader had a smile on his face, and he saw a look of surprise in Nalan Shen's eyes.
"Senior Lei, this is a little thought from this junior, please accept it."
Another person walked up. He was holding a jade pendant in his hand. This jade pendant was carved from top-quality jade. It was carved in the shape of a dragon and looked lifelike...
Next, the heads of each family presented the birthday gifts they brought, and this process lasted for nearly an hour.
"Uncle, is this old man Nalan so willing to accept these rare treasures?"
Li Ming didn't understand. These people bought things at such a high price and gave them to Nalan Lei just to leave a good impression in front of him?
"This is all an exchange of interests. Don't look at the many things they gave. Look carefully... there are only a few birthday gifts on Nalan Shen's right, but there are many on his left. You know what they are. Do you mean it?"
Hu Fan's voice also changed. His voice sounded like that of a middle-aged uncle.
"You mean Nalan Shen will return those birthday gifts on the left?"
Ma Dong saw some clues at this time.
"Yes, those birthday gifts will be returned to them after the birthday banquet, and the Nalan family will also send some gifts of thanks."
This time the two of them finally understood that if the Nalan family took all these things, it would make people think they were greedy, and it would be the interests involved behind these birthday gifts.
