Chapter 1281
"Someone outside the old man's mansion asked to see him. (Book House)"
"What person?!" Fan Xiang was stunned when he heard this, and asked suspiciously.
The butler shook his head, and then spoke. The person who came did not report it, but he asked his subordinates to bring a word to the master. ”
"What words?!" Fan Xiang suddenly became curious, and his eyes suddenly shrank and he said suspiciously. "Say ......"
He said he could help the master get his wish. The butler replied happily.
"Help the old man fulfill his wish?" Fan Xiang's originally gloomy eyes suddenly released a fine light, and a grim smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
But the old man likes to conspire with the tiger and bring him in, and the old man wants to see where he is sacred, and he actually puts the idea on the old man, but if he really has the ability, the old man doesn't mind cooperating with him. ”
The housekeeper was ordered to retreat, and after half a cup of tea, he appeared in the study with a middle-aged man who looked ordinary from the outside.
"Sir, my subordinates have brought him here. After the housekeeper entered the door, he respectfully said to Fan Xiang again, who had his back to them.
Fan Xiang still had his back to them, and when he heard this, he only bowed his head slightly, and waved his hand at the same time. "You go out first. ”
"Yes, sir. The butler leaned back and closed the door.
After the housekeeper left, Fan Xiang's voice sounded again, but he still had his back to the person who came, and he had no intention of turning around.
"Who are you, and what is the purpose of looking for the old man?"
Lord Fan laughed, and came to help the adults on the orders of my son-in-law, so as to help the adults achieve their wishes. ”
"Help the old man? haha...... The old man really wants to hear what my wish has not been fulfilled, and he has to worry about the noble son. "Fan Xiang is not a vegetarian, how can he believe the other party's nonsense.
When the visitor heard this, he didn't change color at all, as if he had already guessed that this would be the case, and said with a faint smile. "The Nanke family is deeply rooted, and it may not be easy to bring it down. ”
"You ......" Fan Xiang turned around suddenly, stood up rubbingly, and glared angrily at the visitor.
However, the other party did not show weakness, and looked at him with a smile.
"Anyone will say empty words, I don't know if the old man can be lucky enough to see the sincerity of your son. "Fan Xiang is an old fox, how can he be persuaded by a few words.
The person who came smiled, turned over and took out a palm-sized token, and carefully handed it to Fan Xiang, Fan Xiang took it, but when he saw the text on it, he suddenly changed color, and hurriedly returned it to the other party, and his face became cloudy.
After a whole cup of tea, Fan Xiang returned to his true colors, took a deep breath and turned to the visitor. "The old man doesn't want to listen to the false, what do you want?"
The person who came seemed to have guessed Fan Xiang's actions a long time ago, stepped forward, approached Fan Xiang and whispered in his ear for a while.
After listening to the other party's words, Fan Xiang's face suddenly became solemn, if it was according to the other party's intentions, this risk was indeed a bit big, but when he thought of being able to get the help of the other party and the opportunity to get rid of the Nanke family, Fan Xiang no longer hesitated.
"Okay! Go back and tell your son-in-law, the old man agreed! But I hope he will keep his promise!"
"This is the way it should be. "The Xiang family is the commercial giant of the Great Qin Empire, commerce is all over every corner of the empire, the strong economic chain occupies half of the empire, even the Great Yan Empire and the Great Yuan Empire have trade contacts, the most important thing is that it is said that the Xiang family has an extremely deep background, and the imperial military also has very close cooperation, no one can be underestimated.
There are even rumors that they are in the same vein as the Xiang family who guarded the western frontier and stationed troops in Misty City, but it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
This time, Mr. Xiang's 80th birthday was particularly festive, even if Mr. Xiang repeatedly explained that he wanted to keep a low profile, this matter still became a topic of conversation in the upper circles of Mizhou City.
The people who were fortunate enough to participate in Mr. Xiang's birthday this time were either rich or noble, either high-ranking officials and nobles, or wealthy businessmen on the rich side, and those who did not reach this level would not be invited at all.
Of course, this is not necessarily the case, some higher-level real big people that the Xiang family can't reach, even if they want to invite, the other party may not be willing to appreciate their faces, and the Nanke family is one of these behemoths.
Although Old Man Xiang has a respected status and can win the world in the business field, compared to Old Taijun Shen, his level is still too far behind, and he is not at the same level at all, but in order to show respect, although Old Man Xiang knew that Old Taijun Shen would not come, he still sent someone to send the most honorable platinum invitation.
Xiang Mansion, located in the east city of Mizhou City, is a newly built mansion five years ago, before the Xiang family's base camp in the border of Mizhou City Qiu Lian City, after the Xiang family's road is more and more wide, and Mizhou City is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, so the foundation was moved to the imperial capital, but also disguised to touch the aura of the imperial capital, hoping that the family business can be more prosperous and prosperous, and future generations will be prosperous.
Tonight's Xiangfu is full of lights, full of joy inside and out, and both the clansmen and the family members of the Xiangfu are dressed very elegantly.
A luxurious and extravagant car came, parked in the corresponding position, any car is rare to see on weekdays, but I didn't expect to be almost gathered here today.
At this moment, a roar came, and a luxurious car galloped under the drive of six wildebeests, embroidered with a dark knife pattern, and in the blink of an eye the car had stopped steadily in front of the door of Xiangfu.
"The Jiang family's car?!I'm not mistaken, right??I didn't expect that Old Man Xiang's birthday would even shock Jiang Yuma, it's just too face-saving!"
"With Jiang Yuma, it is difficult for the Xiang family to be underdeveloped. ”
......
After Jiang Yuma's car appeared, the crowd erupted in exclamations from time to time, obviously no one expected that the powerful Jiang Yuma would sell Old Man Xiang a face, which made the other businessmen present very hot.
With the protection of the Jiang family, the Xiang family's financial resources will rise again.
The door of the car opened, Jiang Xiang was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe, with a wide knife hanging from his waist, and the eyes of the yin owl were filled with a trace of ruthlessness, and anyone who saw it couldn't help but shudder.
Behind him came a young man walking out, wearing a silver-white python dragon robe, the python dragon had already turned into three claws, and it was easy for a clear-eyed person to judge that this person must be the son of a certain royal family, and he was also the eldest son, the heir to the throne, otherwise he would not have the right to wear a silver-white python dragon robe.
"Is it Zhao Wang Shizi?" Some people in the crowd already recognized the origin of the other party, after all, Zhao Wang Shizi first studied in the Imperial Academy and often stayed in Mizhou City, and he could still be seen in some public places, so it was not difficult to be recognized.
"Shh......h It is rumored that the Xiang family wants to marry Zhao Wangfu, and it seems that this matter is inseparable. ”
"I have also heard such rumors, and the protagonist is the prince of Zhao in front of him......"
......
As soon as Jiang Xiang and Zhao Wang Shizi arrived, someone reported to the inner courtyard, and the old man Xiang Yufeng hurriedly greeted him with the support of his two sons, and at this time, Jiang Xiang and Zhao Wang Shizi had just come to the gate of the mansion and were about to step into the threshold.
"The old man meets the master of the horse and His Royal Highness the prince. Xiang Yufeng respectfully took off the hands of his two sons and respectfully saluted the two.
And the disciples of the Xiang Mansion behind Xiang Lao also respectfully followed the salute, their expressions showing respect and humility.
"Xiang Lao, this can't be helped, please get up quickly. Jiang Xiang and Zhao Wang Shizi hurriedly stepped forward, and picked up Xiang Yufeng from left to right.
"You are today's birthday star, how dare you greet you in person, you are folding our birthday. ”
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Xiang Yufeng was humble again and again, and his voice changed. "Please come in, Lord Horse, Your Royal Highness, please!"
The arrival of Jiang Yuma and Zhao Wang Shizi greeted everyone who had already been present, they didn't dare to hold it up, what kind of person is Jiang Xiang, the secret guards he is in charge of, even if they are famous and wealthy families in the empire, the powerful ministers in high positions are all terrified, not to mention these ordinary people, although they are making waves in the business world, but in the face of Jiang Xiang, they can't make a single wave, if Jiang Xiang is targeted, he has a hundred reasons for him to die.
And the prince of Zhao is the first heir to the throne of Zhao, the royal blood of the Great Qin Empire, if there is no accident, he will definitely be in charge of a territory in the future, and the dignity of his status and strength are so strong that they can't beat him.
Neither of them is something they can offend, and in the face of them, they can only smile and be careful.
In addition to Jiang Xiang in the political circles, there are many civil officials who are in charge of the power seal of one party, many of them have official positions equivalent to Jiang Xiang, but Jiang Xiang's notoriety is not all the way, they are not all the way, they just greeted Jiang Xiang when he arrived, and they never came into contact again.
And Xiang Yufeng's birthday banquet, the only thing missing is a figure from the military circles.
Roar......
At this moment, there was an earth-shattering roar outside Xiang's mansion, and a purple ancient chariot drove under the traction of six thorn beasts, and there was a faint aura of slaughter on the chariot, and there was a bloodstained rod inserted above the chariot, and its silver-white natural color flag could be faintly seen, and the flag was embroidered with a big black character 'Gu'.
Before the chariot had stopped, a bronzed young man had jumped up from above, holding a halberd, and a stride had already stepped up the steps, and the guardian who was responsible for guarding the gate of the mansion had not had time to react, and the person had already appeared a hundred meters away from the courtyard of the Xiang Mansion.
As soon as everyone in the audience had recovered from the deafening roar of the beast, the bronzed-skinned youth had appeared outside the hall.
The bronze-skinned young man's eyes swept away, and he found Xiang Yufeng, who was sitting on top with Jiang Xiang, and Xiang Yufeng also found someone coming, and hurriedly got up and left the table to meet him, but the other party had already strode forward, and appeared opposite Xiang Yufeng, and bowed respectfully.
"Xiao Luo has seen Grandpa Xiang. ”
"Xiao Luo, why are you here?, your grandfather is okay......" Xiang Yufeng helped Gu Luo up, full of excitement.
"Grandpa Xiang, don't worry, grandpa has a hard body, if it weren't for the war with the gang of the Great Yuan Empire this time, he would definitely come, but you are also disappointed, his old man asked me to bring you a gift. Gu Luo helped Xiang Yufeng, and his rough voice resounded throughout the hall, making everyone who was chatting endlessly in private stop talking, staring at Gu Luo curiously, wanting to see where the other party was sacred, but Old Man Xiang changed color.
Gu Luo's high-profile appearance immediately focused everyone's attention, and even Jiang Xiang looked Gu Luo up and down curiously.
Gu Luo's words and the ancient chariot parked outside the mansion made some people faintly guess his identity, the Gu family, as a few ancient families in the empire, is much older than the Nanke family, and has experienced the rise and fall of several dynasties, although it has been faintly decayed, much less than before, but compared to the general family heritage is still much deeper.
The Gu family guards the north of the empire, and the Xiang family in Misty City is west and north to contain and defend against the invasion of the Great Yan Empire and the Great Yuan Empire, and occupies a place in the imperial military world.
After Gu Luo finished speaking, he groped in his arms for a while, took out an oiled paper package, and stuffed it to Xiang Yufeng.
Everyone who was originally very curious about Gu Luo's gift was disappointed and a little deceived when they saw him take out such a broken paper bag.
Xiang Yufeng was not like everyone present, he was busy opening the oil paper bag cautiously for the first time, only to see a dark red dry flat kernel quietly placed inside.
"What is this?"
Some of the people present were close enough to see it in their eyes, and those from afar could also see it, but none of them had ever seen it and couldn't tell what it was, including Jiang Xiang and Zhao Wang Shizi who were here, and at this moment they all had the same doubt in their hearts.
"Dragon liver melon core! It's actually dragon liver melon core!"
Xiang Yufeng's eyes, which were originally a little dizzy, trembled with excitement when he saw the nut, and it took a long time to hold back four words.
However, as soon as these four words came out, everyone present immediately gasped, they all have a certain status and identity, of course, they have all heard about the most magical xenomorph dragon liver melon in the Great Yuan Empire.
Dragon's liver melon is named because its shape is very similar to the liver of a lizard dragon, its flesh nourishes qi and nourishes blood, and the core of dragon's liver melon can prolong life and slow down the aging of the body.
It is said that the dragon liver melon grows in the Jedi ghost desert of the Great Yuan Empire, the ghost desert is a veritable Jedi, few people can get out of it, in the history of the Great Yuan Empire, there were three masters of the innate divine realm who joined forces to explore the Jedi, and in the end only one person walked out, and was deeply damaged, and the dragon liver melon core was also brought out by him from it.
Since then, the only master of the Innate Divine Realm who has walked out of the ghost desert has planted the dragon liver melon core and cultivated it successfully, but although the cultivation is successful, even now, there are only fifty-nine dragon liver melon trees in the entire Dayuan Empire, and each tree only bears no more than three fruits a year, and the strangest thing is that only one out of every forty-nine dragon liver melons gives birth to dragon liver melon cores, so that the Dayuan Empire can only get three dragon liver melon cores every year, which shows its preciousness. Xiang Yufeng is now eighty, and the temptation of the dragon liver melon core to him is not ordinarily big, not only him, even everyone present is very hot, including Jiang Xiang and Zhao Wang Shizi, who doesn't want their life to be longer, even if they are still young now, but there will always be a day when they will age.
"Xiao Luo, go back and thank you grandpa for me. Xiang Yufeng is also worthy of being a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and quickly recovered from that excited state, patted Gu Luo's hand, and said with a smile on his face.
