Chapter 662: Succession Ceremony (4)
The person who came was over the age of old, with short white hair and a white beard.
The old man's name is Feng Lu, and even if he is in this entire Feng Mansion, he has a very high prestige.
He came from an ordinary background, but because he had served as the housekeeper in charge of this Feng Mansion for forty years, the entire Feng clan, even the patriarch, had to call him Second Master Lu.
As soon as he saw Second Master Lu, the Third Young Master immediately showed a flattering smile.
Although he had only seen this second master Lu twice, he remembered this old man early on.
The old man is not only powerful, but also upright, even Feng Youtang doesn't dare to embarrass him too much in front of him.
Although Feng Youtang immediately removed Second Master Lu from the position of the housekeeper as soon as he gained power, he still had to nod and agree to the big and small things in the Feng Mansion.
These three young masters are a side sect of the Feng clan in Malay, and their father is very shrewd, from a little-known person, it only took twenty years to become the head of the Feng clan in Malay.
Therefore, their family's status in the Feng clan is also quite high.
The third young master's father is also a little familiar in front of this second master Lu, so the third young master feels that he is also a little familiar in front of the second master Lu.
As soon as Second Master Lu appeared, he immediately leaned over, pointed at Wei An and said, "Second Grandpa, these people are too presumptuous, they actually beat people in front of our Feng clan, according to the clan rules, should they be severely punished?"
Second Master Lu ignored the Third Young Master, just glanced back at the subordinates who came with him, and said impatiently: "Hurry up and deal with this kind of person, today is a major event of my Feng clan, how can he make him spoil the atmosphere!"
When the third young master heard Second Master Lu's words, he couldn't help but smile, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and clean it up, it looks an eyesore."
As soon as the third young master finished speaking, he saw Second Master Lu looking at him impatiently, and his hand was still pointing at him at this time, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Second Grandpa, you ...... You're always pointing the wrong ......"
"Wrong?" Second Master Lu stroked his white beard and snorted coldly, "What are you?" If it weren't for the succession ceremony of the Feng family today, I would have abolished you a long time ago! What are you, here and I set close! ”
After speaking, Second Master Lu waved his hand, and more than a dozen people who followed him hugged him, and tied up the few people brought by the third young master.
The third young master couldn't help but be stunned, and then heard the most memorable sentence in his life.
Second Master Lu bowed to Feng Ting and said, "Patriarch, please come with me......"
"Clan...... Patriarch? The third young master's jaw almost fell to the ground, and his mouth was at a loss.
Feng Ting simply thanked Second Master Lu, ignoring the so-called Third Young Master at all.
When Feng Ting and the others approached the Feng Mansion, Second Master Lu said coldly to the third young master: "I don't know which kid you are, but you have violated the clan rules today and must be severely punished, go back and tell your family steward, after the succession ceremony is over, I will give you a month to come to the headquarters to take the blame, and if you fail to arrive within the time limit, you will bear the consequences!" Hmph......"
Second Master Lu flicked his sleeves and walked into Feng's mansion angrily.
At this time, the third young master's heart was already like a bomb had been detonated, and all the thoughts and delusions in his heart were blown up with the words of the second master Lu just now.
Such a small person did not arouse Zhang Yunfan's interest at all, and this episode from beginning to end failed to disturb half of his mind.
As soon as they entered the Feng Mansion, the three of them followed Second Master Lu directly to a small courtyard in the innermost.
Feng Ting is the protagonist today, he naturally has to appear at the end, and his second uncle is like a master at this time greeting guests.
The succession ceremony was held in the Heart Hall of the Feng Mansion, which is also the only modern building in this huge garden.
The auditorium has two floors, the first floor is a large conference hall, and the second floor is a banquet hall. Throughout the eastern edge of the Feng Mansion, and even when it was first built, it was proposed to be built directly outside the garden.
But in the end, Feng Ting's father argued with reason, saying that the auditorium was a place to report clan affairs, how could it be built outside.
Outside the auditorium was a square, and there were no less than a hundred people gathered at this time, and the big and small people of the Feng Mansion were all greeting here at this time.
Zhang Yunfan and the three of them had only been in the back hall for more than ten minutes, and they heard a rush of footsteps outside the door.
Zhang Yunfan glanced up, suddenly surprised and delighted, and hurriedly said, "You're here!"
And Feng Ting also bowed and saluted, "Lord Xuanzi."
Xuanzi had a deep smile on his face, but at this time, Zhang Yunfan was much older when he first saw him.
Xuanzi looked around and asked, "Where did Xinyi go?"
Xuanzi's question really got to the point, Zhang Yunfan and Feng Ting glanced at each other, and finally Zhang Yunfan spoke: "She...... Something went wrong. ”
When Xuanzi heard this, his expression immediately became nervous, and then Zhang Yunfan told Xuanzi the ins and outs.
"You want to duel with Feng Youtang?" Xuanzi was surprised, "No, this is absolutely not good, this is a stupid act, how could you want to do such a thing?" ”
Hearing Xuanzi say this, Wei An, who was opposed at first, felt that he was saying a wise word at the beginning.
"Yes, this kind of bad idea is even worse when we assassinated Feng Youtang!" Wei Andao.
Zhang Yunfan looked at Wei An with a disapproving smile and said, "It seems that you also admit that you were a bad idea at the beginning, right?"
Then he said to Xuanzi, who was even more anxious at this time: "Don't worry, I'm sure!"
Xuanzi just shook his head, sighed heavily, and said: "Yun Fan, if you make this kind of decision to save your heart, I think you should give up, I will go back to your heart with Feng Youtang, although I may give them a little benefit over there, but I will deal with it myself, if I take you because of saving my heart, it will really outweigh the loss."
Xuanzi was silent for a while, and suddenly looked at Zhang Yunfan with such a regretful expression and said: "You must not go, I heard about your incident in the northwest base, but that is Feng Qian, and you can break through the cultivation of the fifth stage, if you want to reach the same level as Feng Youtang, it will still take a few years or even decades, if you go now, it will be useless to do anything!"
Seeing that Xuanzi's attitude was very resolute, Zhang Yunfan also smiled faintly: "You should know me, I will never do things that I am not sure of."
Xuanzi naturally knew this, but he still didn't understand what kind of change made Zhang Yunfan have this confidence now that he can defeat Feng Youtang.
The gap between you is too big! Xuanzi thought to herself.
About half an hour later, Second Master Lu walked in from outside, he greeted Xuanzi first, and then informed Feng Ting: "Patriarch, it's started, you can go."
Feng Ting looked a little nervous, and looked at Zhang Yunfan, but found that he always had a smiling face on his face.
Feng Ting sighed, although he didn't say it directly, his heart was still full of disbelief in Zhang Yunfan.
He couldn't even figure out what Zhang Yunfan was doing this for.
"Or ...... Think again? Feng Ting said, "I don't want anything to happen to you!" ”
Zhang Yunfan showed a confident smile and said, "Don't worry!"
Feng Ting could only nod helplessly, and Wei An beside him also let out a long sigh.
The four of them walked directly to the auditorium, and when they arrived at the auditorium, they could already hear the loud discussion through the dense vegetation.
The hall of the auditorium was huge, and it was still more than enough for a few hundred people to sit in it.
Second Master Lu led Feng Ting and Zhang Yunfan to the backstage to prepare, and at this time, Feng Youtang was still talking boastfully in front, and his words flaunted him as a flawless loving uncle.
After waiting for a while, Feng Youtang finally finished speaking, and with his "new patriarch invited", Feng Ting walked to the front of the stage.
Zhang Yunfan didn't follow, Feng Ting was the protagonist at this moment, he avoided everyone, went to a secluded corridor and called Dongfang Jing, informing her to bring Feng Zeng, and then lit a cigarette.
Although he had thought about the next thing thousands of times in his mind, when it was time to act, Zhang Yunfan was still a little apprehensive in his heart.
If nothing else, this is the territory of Xuanmen, and if he kills Feng Youtang, he doesn't know what kind of attitude Xuanmen and the Feng people will have.
Everything was unknown, but he couldn't do that much.
It's more for his own purposes, and it's also for Feng Ting, he has to do it.
Zhang Yunfan heard bursts of applause from the front of the stage, and some people shouted "Feng Chen" or the patriarch loudly.
Everyone seemed to be in high spirits because of the new patriarch.
Zhang Yunfan asked before, this procedure takes half an hour, and it is basically the succession etiquette of the patriarch that has been passed down for thousands of years by some Xuanmen.
Although the times are no longer what they used to be, these things are still preserved.
Zhang Yunfan walked backstage after smoking, and there were not many people here, because most of them were crowded into the auditorium.
Zhang Yunfan looked outside through the curtain and found that Feng Ting had changed into a navy blue robe at some point, and a forehead band of the same color was tied on his forehead, and the word "Chen" was written on his face in a seal.
The next thing lasted for a long time, and then Feng Youtang rambled a lot of nonsense.
Feng Ting's succession ceremony, at this time, it seems that he has become the protagonist, and Feng Ting is more like a tablet.
He talked for a long time, and finally got to the point.
Feng Youtang suddenly put away his smile and said solemnly: "All the predecessors and descendants of the Feng clan and the Xuanmen, today is the ceremony for my nephew Feng Ting to succeed as the patriarch, I am very happy as an uncle, because this is a major event of the Feng clan, but!" Recently, there has been a kind of news that I, Feng Youtang, am doing to my nephew? Even slandering me for wanting to replace Ting'er is complete nonsense, and it is even more sowing discord! ”
As soon as Feng Youtang said this, Zhang Yunfan immediately looked nervous, because he knew that Feng Youtang was tantamount to setting a trap for himself!
Sure enough, Feng Youtang quickly continued: "I, Feng Youtang, act above board, my brother only has Ting'er's son, how can I do this?" What are the intentions of the man who spreads such rumors? ”
Feng Youtang glanced coldly at the direction of the backstage, and then said, "Today, I am going to make a break with those rumor-mongers!"
