People of a little age on the island still remember that the Ryuginkan has only been open for use twice since it was built 10 years ago. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The first time was that Emperor Wei Ming stayed here ten years ago, and the second time was that Emperor Chen Tai stopped here five years ago. It hasn't been opened since.

Today is the 60th birthday of the Grand Duke of Yumeshima, and the vermilion gate of the Ryuginkan, which has been tightly closed for many years, is slowly opening.

A grand birthday celebration will be held here.

At this time, the firecrackers rang out in unison, the bells rang in unison, and the drums played in unison.

Wei Li, the fourteenth prince of Wei Guo, and Liang Mian, the eighth prince of Liang Guo, walked side by side in the first place, and the Marquis of Chen Guowu Yang, the Marquis of Chu Guowen Qu and others, etc., followed and entered the Longyin Pavilion in turn.

After entering the main hall, under the guidance of Ximen Liu, they each entered their respective seats and sat down. The Dragon Yin Pavilion still has a brocade screen in the main hall, but the screen is close to the seat in the west wing, and there is still quite a lot of space in the middle of the main hall.

The fourteenth prince naturally occupies the chief of the East Chamber, followed by the eighth prince, and the others are the Marquis of Wuyang and the Marquis of Wenqu. The important attachés of the princes and princes were present behind him. The following is the proprietor of the major firms, and the following is the shopkeeper of the major branches of the Ming and Zhu firms. And the senior personnel on Dream Island, such as Ximen Liu, Tan Fearless, Hua Meng, etc., are busy everywhere.

The west chamber is for the female guests, and those female guests have already taken their seats at some point. The first is Princess Yanran, the second is Princess Chuxi, the county lord of Yunchu, the county lord of Wumei, and the following are the daughters of major merchants. . .

Although there are thousands of guests, there are only a hundred people who are qualified to enter the main hall of the Dragon Yin Pavilion.

At this time, hundreds of long tables were lined up from the inner courtyard in front of the Dragon Yin Pavilion to the outer courtyard and then to the second courtyard, all the way to the gate of the Kirin Temple.

Those who were unable to enter the main hall were seated in their temporary seats on the courtyard.

Outside, there was a sea of people, laughter and laughter, and people's voices.

Due to the fact that there were too many noble and noble guests among the guests, the Ximen Yun brothers could not enter the main hall today, and could only sit at the same table with the family in the courtyard.

After Ximen Liu arranged the VIP seats in the main hall, he appeared at the gate of the Qilin Courtyard again.

At this time, in the middle of the three-story courtyard between the entrance of the Qilin Courtyard and the entrance of the main hall of the Dragon Yin Pavilion, a red passage about a thousand steps long through the three-story courtyard gate was paved with a scarlet carpet.

Ximen Liu stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked out for a short time, then suddenly turned his head and shouted inward: "The birthday star is coming, please be quiet!" A few more people below picked up his voice and repeated it several times. In an instant, the noise in the courtyards slowly disappeared.

And the sound of drum music outside gradually sounded, melodious and tactful, gradually approaching.

Suddenly, a band wearing vermilion slowly entered the gate, and then, with the support of Mingyu's light hand, Ming Zhu Gong entered from the gate of the Qilin Courtyard, stepped on the road paved with a long scarlet carpet, and walked slowly in the direction of the Dragon Yin Pavilion.

Today, the Duke of Ming Zhu is wearing a dragon red embroidered duke's python robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a beaded crown on his head.

Mingyu wore a crimson floor-length dress, a beaded hairpin on her head, and a green ring in her ears, which looked particularly bright and beautiful, but her face was covered with a layer of light pink tulle. With each step she took, her dress drifted forward from the carpet.

Many guests in the courtyard couldn't help but cheer and shouted in unison: "Happy birthday to Ming Zhugong!" "Ming Zhu Gongshou is better than Nanshan!" "Long live Ming Zhu Gong!" The sound was higher and higher.

Ming Zhu Gong smiled and waved to the left and right, and walked slowly towards the main hall with Mingyu's support.

Ming Zhu'an followed Ming Zhugong half a step, and he was also wearing a new dress, with a happy face.

When Ming Zhu Gong passed through the three-story courtyard gate and appeared at the door of the main hall of the Dragon Yin Pavilion, the VIPs in the main hall stood up and applauded together.

With a smile on his face, Ming Zhugong stepped into the main hall, steadily walked through the open space in the middle of the main hall, and walked towards the high chair in the middle of the Dragon Yin Pavilion. When he arrived at the high chair, Ming Zhugong did not sit down, but turned around, waved his hand at everyone, and motioned for everyone to take a seat. After everyone returned to their seats, Ming Zhu Gong sat down.

Ming Yu and Ming Zhu'an stood behind Ming Zhu Gong on the left and right. Ming Zhu'an looked at ease, looked at eye level, and wandered left and right from time to time, communicating with acquaintances with one or two eyes.

Mingyu behind the tulle had her eyelashes hanging slightly, her demeanor was calm, she smiled silently, and silently endured the burning eyes of many guests. Today is a special day, and Mingyu, as the hostess of Dream Island, can't help but show her head. You can only cover your face with a hazy tulle.

Ximen Liu didn't know when he came to the high chair again, stood on the steps, bowed to Ming Zhu Gong, and then turned back to face everyone, smiling and proclaiming: "The auspicious time has come." The 60th birthday celebration of the 60th birthday of the Grand Duke of Mengdao began. The birthday celebration is divided into three steps, birthday greetings, birthday celebrations and gifts. First of all, please ask Miss Mingzhu Mingyu to pray for her father's birthday. ”

Hearing this, Mingyu lifted her skirt slightly, slowly walked down the steps, turned to face Ming Zhugong three steps before the steps, straightened her dress, and knelt down slowly, at this moment she remembered her mother's premature death, her father's nurturing grace, her heart was sour, her eyes were hot, and the corners of her eyes couldn't help rolling two lines of tears, in order to hide the tears on her face, she kowtowed three times, and her voice choked: "Dad, thank you for your nurturing grace to Yu'er." Yu'er wishes you good health and a long life. ”

Ming Zhu laughed openly and said: "It's okay to be healthy, how can you live a long life?" Hurry up. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and helped him downward.

Mingyu thanked him and slowly returned to the steps to serve.

After that, Ximen Liu led all the personnel of Dream Island and the Ming Zhu branch to pay homage to the Ming Zhu Gong. I saw that from the steps of the main hall to the corridor outside the hall, outside the courtyard gate and even outside the second gate, there were several long queues, under the guidance of Ximen Liu, bowed to Ming Zhu Gongsan, and wished in his mouth: "I wish my grandfather good health and a long life!" ”

After the birthday greetings, the following is a birthday celebration and a gift.

Ximen Liu returned to the position of the master of ceremonies, and announced loudly facing the door: "First of all, please ask Mu Xun, the big shopkeeper of the Ming Zhu business, Chen Guo, to celebrate his birthday and present a gift!" ”

Mu Xun is around 50 years old, he is the first batch of partners when Ming Zhu Firm was established, and has followed Ming Zhu Gong for more than 30 years. And the Chen Guo branch is the foundation of the Mingzhu firm, among all the branches of the Mingzhu firm, although it is not the largest, it can be regarded as the most important.

Mu Xun got up from his seat, slowly walked to the bottom of the steps in front of the high chair, bowed three times to Ming Zhu Gong, and then bowed to the left and right, and then said loudly: "Distinguished guests, today is the 60th birthday of Ming Zhu Gong, the Grand Duke of Dream Island. Ming Zhu Gong started his business for 35 years, worked hard and went through hardships to achieve the great cause of today's Ming Zhu firm. This business is not only the glory of our Mingzhu firm, but also the pride of those who do business at home. On behalf of the 10,000 men of Chen Guo's branch, I, Mu Xun, would like to extend my most sincere congratulations to Ming Zhugong. I wish my grandfather a long and healthy life, and a longer life than Nanshan. ”

After Mu Xun finished wishing him a birthday, he turned around and waved his hand back, and immediately four people carried a large wooden box of vermilion lacquer more than one person high, stepped into the inner hall from the outside of the main hall, carried it behind Mu Xun, and gently placed it on the ground.

What kind of treasure is the first gift, everyone is very concerned. Everyone in the hall was contemplating, watching, and waiting.

Mu Xun and the four of them carefully opened the wooden box and lifted a life-size bronze statue out of it. Let's take a closer look, it turns out that this statue is carved in the image of the birthday star Ming Zhu Gong, with exquisite workmanship, wrinkles and wrinkles, and a lifelike face.

This birthday gift was very creative, and everyone couldn't help but applaud. Ming Zhu Gong gladly accepted.

Next, Weiguo Branch, Liang Guo Branch, Chu State Branch, and Mengdao Headquarters all delivered speeches and presented various birthday gifts. Each semicolon came here for only one purpose, that is, to congratulate Ming Zhugong on his 60th birthday, and the birthday gift was naturally valuable and commemorative.

Next, the Shikoku firms successively gave birthday greetings and presented gifts. This time, the big proprietors of the Shikoku firm all came to Dream Island to congratulate Ming Zhu Gong on his birthday, but they all chose to let their sons and nephews come to the stage to give speeches and introduce gifts.

The meaning, of course, is to let their sons and nephews show their faces in front of Mingyu and Ming Zhugong. After all, another reason why they came to Dream Island was that they wanted to marry Ming Zhugong.

Of course, their hope of success was very slim, because with the presence of the young princes of the four countries, they were able to compare with each other. Nor do they dare to compete too blatantly. Isn't it asking for trouble to compete with the princes of your own country?

Although adults don't have much hope anymore. But those big business sons who are strong in blood are unwilling to give up. What's more, in the past, just smelling how beautiful Mingyu was, she traveled thousands of miles to wade through mountains and rivers, and today Mingyu standing behind Ming Zhu Gong is like Chang'e in the sky, although she is wearing a tulle, her beauty is still suffocating through the tulle, making people dare not look directly.

Such a stunning beauty is just a stone's throw away, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, who will give up easily?

At this moment, the sons of the four major firms are eager to try, wanting to take the opportunity of the gift to show their appearance and talent in front of Mingyu, and the two kings and two marquis seem to be more confident...
