"Snapped!"
The wine glass fell to the ground and shattered.
The next moment, the noisy atmosphere suddenly became silent.
Everyone calmed down from the excitement and looked at Qifengtang on the main seat, each with a respectful attitude.
Everyone present included officials from Yanzhou Prefectural Government, such as Yanzhou Biejia, Zhizhong, Chief Secretary, and Liucao. These people were all Ling Ning's assistant officials.
There are also some respected old men, masters who teach and educate people, and heads of major families.
But at this time, everyone was respectful and looked at Qifengtang's lead.
Qi Fengtang glanced at his son Qi Yun, as if telling him: You see, this is the confidence of a father! Ling Ning doesn’t dare to touch the foundation of our Qi family!
then,
Qi Fengtang glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "I accidentally dropped a wine glass. I didn't scare you."
Someone immediately responded: "This wine glass has great integrity. After serving the Qi family leader, he directly died to show his determination and loyalty! He is also a model for our generation to learn from."
From broken wine glasses to loyalty, this sinister guy is really good at flattering.
Everyone immediately recognized this person's identity. His name was Sui Biao, the head of the Sui family, a third-rate squire in Yanzhou, and one of the henchmen of the Qi family. Otherwise, he would not be qualified to participate in today's dinner.
Not to mention these shameless words of praise, he wished he could hang Qi Fengtang as his ancestor and let Qi Fengtang sit in the C seat of his family's ancestral hall.
Everyone sneered in their hearts.
But at the same time as they despised it, some people took the initiative to learn and imitate, saying, "I wonder if the Qi family leader is frightened? You are our backbone and our helmsman."
This is no longer flattering, but flattering.
Immediately afterwards, someone else expressed concern.
There are quite a few elderly masters who were respected mentors before, but now they have become sycophants.
Qi Fengtang enjoyed the atmosphere very much, so he smiled and said: "You are so busy, you can take time to be invited here. This is to show Qi some face. Here, I would like to toast you all."
Everyone quickly served wine.
After finishing the drink, Qi Fengtang continued his drink and said: "This second cup is for you to rest assured. With you here, there will be no chaos in Yanzhou! Everything is under control!"
This was said in a simple way, but everyone present heard it clearly.
They all know that the Qi family has raised the price of grain and salt, and is working against the prince of the Northland. People like Sui Biao and others who were attached to the Qi family also raised prices.
But most people are still waiting and watching.
But now, as Qi Fengtang said that everything was under control, everyone immediately understood and decided to follow the footsteps of the Qi family from tomorrow.
"There will be no chaos in Yanzhou because there is a person as righteous as the Qi family leader as the sea-suppressing stone!"
"That's right! We must follow the footsteps of the Qi family master!"
"The Qi family leader said that everything is under control, then everything must be under control, and it is more effective than anyone else!"
"If Yanzhou is a ship, then the head of the Qi family is the helmsman!"
“…”
Everyone responded immediately and the atmosphere was high.
Qi Fengtang was very happy, laughed, and then clapped his hands. Countless beauties came and began to warmly entertain the distinguished guests.
For a time, the lively atmosphere was pushed to the extreme.
…
The night at Qi's house was filled with music and music.
The Beidi County Prince's Mansion was also very lively.
Especially Ling Ning, who was not idle at all.
What Ling Ning wanted to do last time was not accomplished. This time, through Ling Ning's efforts, she finally succeeded in convincing Ye Youran and Zhou Xuerou.
Only Lin Xixue next door complained.
She is already in her thirties and has not tasted the sweet and sour. How can she withstand this kind of suffering?
Can't sleep, can't sleep at all.
He could only keep his two eyes open, shining like the moon in the dark night.
The next morning.
Ling Ning saw Lin Xixue with a tired face again, and thought about finding a doctor for her to cure her insomnia. Insomnia is not a disease, but it is a torture.
"Ling Ning, I want to explain to you about Duan Feng." At this time, Lin Xixue came over and took the initiative to confess.
Ling Ning said: "Let's talk in the study."
The two of them moved to the study room, and Ling Ning poured tea for Lin Xixue.
Lin Xixue thanked her and then said: "I arranged Duan Feng and Yang Huanhuan. Whether you believe it or not, the purpose of arranging them is just to know whether your father and you are living well. It's just that. I didn't expect that Yang Huanhuan would harm you..."
She looked straight at Ling Ning with calm eyes.
Ling Ning has found out that Yang Huanhuan's hatred towards the Ling family has nothing to do with Lin Xixue.
"Aunt Xue, I understand your feeling of not being able to love someone. I entrust Duan Feng to you because I believe in your character." Ling Ning smiled.
Lin Xixue looked nostalgic and said quietly: "Your father has always regarded me as his sister. In fact, even I don't know what my thoughts are towards your father. Call it admiration, but it doesn't feel like it."
"Now that your father has passed away, I seem to have figured it out."
"I did have some admiration at first, but I couldn't get it. The disappointment made me become obsessed, and it turned into obsession."
"People, you should not meet someone who is too outstanding when you are young. Once you fall into it, even if you realize that it is not love, it will be difficult to extricate yourself."
“…”
Lin Xixue fiddled with her fingers, revealing her thoughts for the first time. Even she didn't know why she said these words to Ling Ning.
Ling Ning sipped her tea and thought about fucking love. It was all self-deception.
Don't worry about your heart, and don't be disturbed by emotions.
If you have time to fall in love, why not take the postgraduate entrance examination.
Ling Ning comforted her and said, "Aunt Xue, you should have fun while you are alive. When you enjoy the fun of life, you will know the true meaning of life."
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Lin Xixue blushed and secretly sighed in her heart.
Obviously, she thought about the scene where a man and two women sang a big show next door last night.
"You're busy, I'm going back to the house." Lin Xixue felt that she couldn't stay any longer and ran away immediately.
Ling Ning looked at Lin Xixue's back with a sneer on her lips.
Duanmu Shuang has already set off to spread rumors. He believes that the famous eldest princess has come to Yanzhou to pay homage to Ling Xingshuang. This kind of accusation against the court and the act of clearing up Ling Ning's army will definitely give Huang Huang a hard slap. hand.
I really want to see with my own eyes how distorted Emperor Liang’s expression is.
at this time,
Zhang Quan entered the study and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty! This is what happened at the Qi family banquet last night!"
Ling Ning took the book, which recorded everything that happened at the Qi family's banquet in detail, including who said what, down to the smallest details.
"If Yanzhou is a ship, then the head of the Qi family is the helmsman? Tsk, that's such a big statement." Ling Ning threw the booklet on the table and mocked.
Zhang Quan said angrily: "The Qi family is so arrogant that they dare to disrespect my lord. My lord, please order me to destroy the Qi family!"
Ling Ning smiled and said: "Now is not the time, let them continue jumping, that will be interesting. If you want to destroy people, first swell them."
Having said that, Ling Ning felt that he could knock the mountain and shake the tiger to make things more exciting, so Ling Ning's bodyguard left the palace.
