Early in the morning, the gate of the Qi Mansion of the Governor of Jiangnan opened.

Bright red silk hung all over the treetops, and the whole mansion was full of joy.

From the hour onwards, the guests began to come to the door, all kinds of horse-drawn carriages blocked the street entrance, and the boxes containing gifts were also discharged from the side door.

The housekeeper who stood at the side door to greet the guests didn't even have time to read the gift list, so he could only read out the gift giver directly.

Ji Yan's footsteps paused at the door, he didn't hear the name of the Han family for a long time, the corners of his lips hooked unconsciously, and he greeted the Ye family uncle who was behind him, and walked into the door together.

Because the governor always left after three years, Hangzhou had a special Jiangnan governor's mansion for the governor to live in.

However, Qi Tianao did not live in the mansion configured by the government, but bought another big mansion to live in.

In the early years, this house was also owned by the wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, covering a vast area, with exquisite pavilions and pavilions, and the main courtyard in front of the guests was even more majestic.

Because there were many guests here today, the banquet was divided into three places in front of it.

One is a special official, one is a local celebrity, and the other is a merchant's house.

The Ji family was originally the first wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, but after the defeat a hundred years ago, only one remained, and now they rely on maritime businessmen to get up, and most of the friends are businessmen.

Ji Yan pushed the good intentions of the steward who led him to the place of celebrities, and instead sat down at the place of the merchant, and looked around.

"I guess the Han family is afraid that no one will come." Uncle Ye next to him said in a low voice.

For so many days, not only did there be no news from the Han family's sea boat, but there was also no news from the East China Sea Master of the Left Dao, and the first was only Qi Tianao's subordinates, and later even Qi Tianao himself told the captain of the county lord's guard that the county lord had an accident, and it was related to the Han family and Zuo Dao.

Although the words were said in private, I couldn't resist that the captain of the guard was really a rough man, and when I came back from Tongzhou before, I listened to the words, and then went to find Han Che again, and blocked Han Che on the street again, shouting at the top of his voice, saying that the governor of Jiangnan said that your Han family colluded with the East China Sea Division and harmed the county lord!

At that time, Han Che was so angry, and such a gentle man directly burst into foul language.

is so clear that the Han family is going to be charged, and the Han family is coming, it is really not Han Che.

But now, there is no news of Han Yuan and Cold War, and Han Che alone can't fight against Qi Tianao, even those officials in Hangzhou who are good friends are now beginning to avoid suspicion with the Han family.

"Hey, this time, the Han family is afraid that it really won't be pleased." A maritime merchant next to him whispered.

Judging from today's development, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this Han family's fleet is only afraid that it has been attacked by Zuo Dao, and twenty warships, no matter how powerful the Han Abyss is, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist.

What's more, if there is no news for so long, it is possible that the entire army will be destroyed.

And Qi Tianao must have inserted a foot in this, this is the rhythm of preparing to fall into the well and swallow the Han family.

The only thing I don't quite understand is what does Qi Tianao mean by poking out the left path so blatantly?

"Hey, what kind of medicine is sold in this Qi lord's gourd?" Uncle Ye stabbed Ji Yan again, and said in a low voice: "This person who instructed the county lord to find trouble with the Han family, I understand, but why did you go to the East China Sea Master?" ”

They are all officials in Jiangnan, aren't they all officials protecting each other?

Otherwise, Zuo Dao has been robbing for a few years, and he hasn't seen Qi Tianao make a sound.

Ji Yan smiled faintly and said, "How can we guess what this adult thinks?" It's like marrying now, I heard that Mrs. Qi has been raising a little girl in Jinling for some days, can't we adults endure it? ”

Mrs. Qi had that incident, and her second brother happened to be in Jinling, and after watching the whole process, he came back to sue him.

At that time, he only felt that Qi Tianao shouldn't have known about the things that Mrs. Qi had done, such a powerful person, his wife was so unscrupulous in stealing people, could he not know?

I didn't say it before, but I was afraid that it was because it was difficult to say.

No matter how he said it, how he did it, he couldn't escape the result of being ridiculed.

Now it is picked out by the county lord and the five princes, and if he does this again, he will become a bitter master, and now he will immediately marry his aunt as the main room and the media, and no one will say anything.

This scheming.

This time the matter of the Han family, he dared to do this, he was completely sure.

can completely discredit the Han family and Zuo Dao, and they will never be able to turn over again.

These maritime merchants in Hangzhou didn't know about it, but he asked his second brother to find out the bottom in Jinling.

The East China Sea Master has always been at odds with Qi Tianao, and he has always been at odds with the original sailors of Jinling.

This time, Qi Tianao is afraid that he will kill two birds with one stone.

I just don't know, what is the hole card behind him?

Also, did he know that there were big waves overseas that day, not only the Han family's boat, but also the boat of the left road.

If the ships on both sides sink......

The Han family really can't say clearly.

"Hey, let's still have a good relationship with Lord Qi, and I don't know if I can go to sea in the future." Uncle Ye was stunned for a moment, sighed and said.

"Here it is, here it is, the bridegroom welcomes the bride!"

Someone shouted at the door, and some of the guests shouted to see the excitement, and everyone got up and rushed to the main courtyard.

Ji Yan also got up and followed the group of people to the main courtyard.

The main courtyard was crowded with loud congratulatory guests, and there was an empty passage in the middle, and Qi Tianao, dressed in red, was slowly leading the bride wearing a red wedding dress with a red hijab.

His face was full of red light, and his joy was overflowing, and he laughed and responded to the guests on both sides.

He really looks like a young man who has just married his wife.

The congratulatory voices of the guests became more lively, and they hugged the two of them and walked up the main hall.

In the main hall, Mrs. Qi sat on the upper seat, her face was happy, but her eyes were dark and inexplicable looking at the son who was joyfully leading her beloved.

When the two walked into the main hall, there was a happy prince who led the two to stand and loudly announced that they would worship heaven and earth.

After worshipping, he led the two of them to stand in front of Mrs. Qi and shouted two bows to the high hall.

The two knelt in front of Old Madam Qi, and just bent over, ready to kowtow.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.

Some screamed, some screamed, and there was a thumping sound.

Qi Tianao frowned, looked sideways at his subordinates, and someone rushed out next to him.

But not long after rushing out, I heard a thud, and the man flew over from mid-air and fell squarely between Qi Tianao and Old Madam Qi.

The full house of guests screamed and dispersed to both sides.

Old Madam Qi was stunned, watching the blood of the person who fell to the ground splash all over the corners of her skirt, and only after a moment did she let out an exclamation.

Qi Tianao got up angrily, first helped Lanqin up, and then turned his head to look.

I saw that on a passage where the guests had dodged out one after another, dozens of guards with swords out of their sheaths punched and kicked the guards of the Qi Mansion.

And walking in the front, while bowing his head and wiping his hands, came slowly, was a man with a tall figure like a sword out of the sheath, with handsome eyebrows but full of frost and coldness.
