Volume 2 The Family Chapter 55 The Lord Has Arrived
The little guy who reported at the door shouted loudly: "The head of the Taiyuan Wang family, Wang Yuan has arrived!" ”
The atmosphere at the banquet table in the head of the family's mansion that had finally calmed down suddenly became noisy again, and the Taiyuan Wang family was forced into seclusion by the emperor back then, even the heads of the families present had not heard of Wang Yuan for more than ten years. Wang Yuan's appearance in Fanyang Lu was not surprising to them, after all, the news that the Taiyuan Wang family helped Lu Qingshan was already a well-known secret, but they still couldn't understand why Wang Yuan did this? Aren't you afraid that the reborn Taiyuan Wang clan will completely anger the original emperor?
Wang Yuan is a energetic old man, not young, his head is more than half white, and the white beard on his chin can also flutter in the wind. After all the heads of the family saw Wang Yuan walk in, they all stood up to greet each other.
"The head of the Wang family, I haven't seen him for many years, but he is still so majestic, and he walks vigorously." Li Ye greeted him first.
Wang Yuan looked at Li Ye carefully, and then suddenly said, "You are Li Ye of Longxing!" I haven't seen you for so many years, and I can't remember what you look like. ”
Li Ye laughed, and the two approached the banquet enthusiastically.
Wang Yuan looked around at the people in the banquet, saw a huge figure, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to walk over to say hello, "Ah, this figure, the old man will definitely not admit his mistake." Wu Xing Shen Wansan, right. ”
Shen Wansan got up from the banquet, nodded with a smile that was neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "The master of the Wang family has good eyesight, it is Wansan." ”
Wang Yuan waved his hand and smiled, "Where is the good eyesight, but your body is too special, I just can't recognize it." ”
During the banquet, everyone was amused by this unintentional ridicule, and even Shen Wansan himself laughed and said: "What the head of the Wang family said is that Wansan's bloated body is afraid that it will be like this until death." ”
Wang Yuan saw Shen Wansan sitting next to him again, frowned and thought for a while, "Who is this?" The old man looked a little familiar, but he just couldn't think of it. ”
Shen Wansan sat down and looked away. Totoku got up slowly, and replied with his hand: "The original phase is to face the right prime minister, Totoku." The head of the Wang family has not been out for many years, and his health is still healthy. ”
Wang Yuan thought about it carefully, and then suddenly patted his head and shouted: "Ah! The old man remembered. I think back then, you were just a little waiter in Shangshu Province, and in the blink of an eye, you became the right prime minister of Zhongshu Province. ”
Wang Yuan shook his head and sighed: "This world is changing so fast, if I come out a few years late, I'm afraid I won't be able to recognize this world." ”
Tokhtar smiled and didn't speak.
Wang Yuan shook his head again and smiled: "That's right, because of the matter between Mrs. Lu and our Taiyuan Wang family back then, you also made great contributions, and now you can sit in the position of the right prime minister, and the old man can be regarded as having a contribution." ”
Wang Yuan patted his shoulder, laughed and raised his glass: "Come, for the sake of my honor to be able to make a contribution on the road to the promotion of the right minister, the old man respects you." ”
"Raise your glass, Prime Minister!" Wang Yuan stared at Totoku seriously, his eyes full of chilling smiles.
The banquet suddenly quieted down, and most of the people present knew why the Taiyuan Wang clan angered the original imperial court back then, and among them, how much did the current right prime minister take off. For the detachment, the Taiyuan Wang clan has no reason and will never return any form of goodwill.
But as if he couldn't smell the smell of gunpowder, he also smiled and raised his glass, took the initiative to clink glasses with wine, and drank it all.
Wang Yuan took a deep look at the empty quilt in his hand, was silent for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Okay, good, good prime minister of Zhongshu Province." Haha, the old man did it too. ”
After speaking, he raised his glass and drank it up. Then he held the wine glass in his hand, continued to walk forward, and after turning around and returning to his seat, he asked suspiciously: "Hey, where is Li Shicheng?" Are they so powerful that they didn't even send anyone to attend Old Lady Lu's birthday banquet? ”
After everyone heard this, they all turned their heads to look at Li Yantang in the banquet. Li Yantang got up unhurriedly and said to Wang Yuan: "Below is the current head of the Li family in Longxi, Li Yantang. ”
Wang Yuan frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Oh... You are Li Shicheng's eldest son? ”
He walked up to Li Yantang with great interest and looked carefully, "Old man remembers that at your full moon seat, I also hugged you." It's grown so big in a blink of an eye. There is a future," Li Yantang patted Li Yantang's shoulder appreciatively, "You can provoke the Li family in Longxi at a young age, Li Shicheng really gave birth to a good son." ”
Li Yantang smiled politely.
Wang Yuan said again: "But Li Shicheng's kid will be lazy, so he passed on the position so quickly, and retired to enjoy Qingfu himself." ”
After hearing this, everyone at the banquet looked strange, looked at Wang Yuan, and turned their eyes to Li Yantang again. Although the Taiyuan Wang family is in seclusion, it is impossible for them not to know about Li Shicheng's murder. Wang Yuan's question was purely to disgust the Li family in Longxi.
Li Yantang's eyes flashed with imperceptible grief, but there was still a hint of a smile on his face, and he said calmly: "My father was killed by a traitor a few days ago. Yantang took over Longxi, which was really a helpless move. ”
Wang Yuan showed regret on his face, and arched his hand and said: "I'm sorry, the old man has not asked about the world for many years, I don't know that Longxi has been in addition to this change, there is no unintentional arrow, don't be surprised by the virtuous nephew." ”
Li Yantang shook his head, "The head of the Wang family is too worried, Yantang is not an unreasonable person, knowing that the head of the Wang family is unintentional, how can he blame him." ”
Wang Yuan laughed, the grief on his face was exhausted, and he turned around and left Li Yantang alone and returned to his seat. Li Yantang's expression remained unchanged, but a hint of sharpness flashed in his eyes, and he also sat down.
"Come on, come on, you're welcome. Mrs. Lu's birthday, please wait for me to come and let the heads of the major families have a chance to connect with each other. Let's talk. ”
Wang Yuan said loudly, as if he was the master here. Although everyone was dissatisfied, they did not show it.
The main owner has not yet arrived, and no one has moved chopsticks to the table of wine and food, but a few people are chatting together.
After a while, a subordinate announced loudly: "Old lady Lu has arrived, the head of the family has arrived, the eldest master, the second master, and the third master have arrived." ”
As soon as the voice of the announcement fell, several figures walked outside the hall.
The thin figure of the head of the Lu family walked in the front, and Lu Qingshan pushed a wheelchair and slowly followed behind the head of the Lu family, and above the wheelchair was the main owner of the day, Mrs. Lu. And Lu Qingyun and Lu Qingtian also followed behind Lu Qingshan with a smile on their faces and walked in slowly.
