Chapter 217: The Only Empty Box
Perhaps the principal of Sikong Mansion did not like that kind of long and cumbersome banquet, and after a short period of singing and dancing, he announced that this banquet was the real "main course". Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 According to the general rules of this kind of banquet, a game will be played on the last few days, or in the course of a day.
This is actually nothing, after all, the people of Chu are all bold people, although the process is a bit violent, but they are still very acceptable to this way.
However, today's banquet is different, some of the people who come are not from the Chu State, and they can't accept the Chu State's way of solving problems with fists or physical strength.
Some of them are not in good health, and they rely on their brains to strategize, if they don't bother to break their brains, what can they do?
Moreover, that way is a bit lengthy and cumbersome, and there is often a situation where two people are not up or down, which is really difficult to choose. And this time, a lottery was taken, what does it mean?
As soon as the voice of the head of Sikong Mansion fell, four slaves came up with two boxes and placed them on the stage.
The box is half a person high, and the two of them hug such a large box, and the box is carved with dragons and phoenixes, and is inlaid with gold and precious stones. The wood of the box is a rare cypress. There is only a small piece of cypress in the thousand-year-old cypress, and today, Sikong Fu has brought up two such large cypresses, and the materials are complete, and there are no traces of patchwork.
The financial strength of Sikong Mansion can be seen.
After the box was carried up, the head of the Sikong Mansion stepped forward and spoke: "Inside the box, there are different boxes, one person takes out a small box from one box, and takes out the same flowers, for a large group, flowers of the same color, for two groups, now, everyone, please choose your favorite box." ”
As soon as the principal of Sikong Mansion finished speaking, the people present stepped forward one after another, looking for their favorite boxes, and the few people sitting on the high level also went down to get the boxes themselves.
The second son of Han Fu was also very interested, and he directly took Bai Rui and stepped forward to take the small box, and said in his mouth: "You must draw the same group, it's best for the two of us to be together, and continue to mess around." ”
"......" Bai Rui was really puzzled by Yuci, the second son of the Han Mansion, thinking that the second son of the Han Mansion was also in his twenties, how could he still be like a child.
Probably because he met Bai Rui, he could mess around. It really seems to be like this, a person, after meeting the destined person in his life, either becomes more mature, or becomes more childish, and the second son of Han Fu is the latter.
"Hey...... Master Hou, you won't leave after you come back this time, after this banquet, how about you come to my twenty-second birthday? The second prince of Han Fu stood outside the crowd, looked at Bai Rui and said.
After calculating the time in his heart, feeling that he could catch up, Bai Rui nodded and agreed.
"Good brother!" The second son of Han Fu patted Bai Rui on the shoulder, and then got into the crowd and went to get the box.
Bai Rui continued to stand outside the crowd, waiting for the second son of the Han Mansion to come out of it.
He thought of the first time he met the second son of Hanfu, and after coming back this time, he followed the scene of meeting the second son of Hanfu again, such a second son of Hanfu always gave him a very calm and serious image of the second son of the Hou Mansion, but he didn't expect that after the more and more communication deepened, the second son of Hanfu was like a child, a child who couldn't grow up, and maintained the childlike innocence in his heart. Such a person, along with the communication, is a very good relationship and a very good encounter.
The second son of Hanfu, who was drilling around in the crowd, came out with two boxes, handed one to Bai Rui casually, and couldn't wait to open his own box.
In the box is a delicate purple jasmine, with water droplets hanging on it, which is very beautiful, and the petals are round and even.
Leaning over to look at the jasmine in the box of the second son of the Han Mansion, Bai Rui nodded: "This purple jasmine flower has a beautiful shape and round petals, it is indeed a top grade, very good." ”
"And what's in your box?" The second son of Han Fu snatched the box in Bai Rui's hand, opened it, and saw an empty box.
Empty? The second son of Han Fu re-closed the box again, opened it, and it was still empty. Then, the whole box was opened, and there were no flowers on the lid. The second son of Han Fu, who didn't believe in evil, continued to look at other people's boxes, which all had flowers of various colors, but Bai Rui didn't have any flowers.
"What's going on?" The second son of the Han Mansion looked at Bai Rui's empty box, thinking that it had been filled, so he pulled Bai Rui forward to find the principal of Sikong Mansion.
When they got up, a servant came up and asked, "Is there anything wrong?" ”
"I'm looking for your family." The second prince of the Han Mansion didn't look at this servant much, and walked straight to the top and saw the principal of Sikong Mansion sitting and drinking wine.
As soon as he put the box in his hand on the table, the second son of Han Fu said, "Why is this box empty?" “
"This, please wait a while for the second prince of the Han Mansion. Sikong Houye, please take a seat, do you want to have a glass of wine? "The person in charge of Sikong Mansion said that his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was very personable.
"Okay." Bai Rui sat in front of the head of Sikong Mansion. The principal of Sikong Mansion gave Bai Rui a glass of wine: "I don't know this, what's the difference between following Sikong Hou Mansion?" ”
"One is for the wealthy, and the other is for the Houmen, how to say this? Naturally, I would say that Sikong Houfu is good. Barry said.
"It's a pity that few people can drink Houmen's wine, but the wine of a wealthy family is something that everyone has the opportunity to drink." The principal of Sikong Mansion said.
He is not young, he is in his fifties, and his face can no longer hide the wrinkles and old age, but those eyes, like young people, have momentum and energy.
And the eyes in his eyes that belong to young people make him look a lot younger.
"There is a saying in the Central Plains that the song is high and low, and the spring is white and snowy." Bai Rui said with a smile, with a hint of a smile on his handsome face, it looked like he was really in the prime of life.
Glancing up at Bai Rui, the head of Sikong Mansion smiled: "The men in the Gobi grew up with the wind and dust, thinking of the appearance of Sikong Houye, how many people will have." If someone who doesn't know sees the appearance of the Marquis of Sikong, I don't know if they will recognize the wrong person. The person in charge of Sikong Mansion directly sarcastically mocked Bai Rui's appearance as a child.
Sensing that these two people were fighting openly and secretly, the second son of the Han Mansion remained silent. After all, this matter was originally Sikong Fu's own overstepping, not an ordinary overstepping. Right now, it's a battle between two people, and it's also a battle between Sikong Hou Mansion and Sikong Mansion, he is an outsider, so don't meddle in it. (To be continued.) )
