Chapter 545: Birthday
Knowing that Chu Niangzi was already on the way back to Chang'an, Xia Huanfeng began to send stickers, and in the name of the birthday of the leader of the Shangguan gang, he invited all the gangs and factions around Chang'an and the businessmen related to the gang's business to gather together. The businessmen include the dart heads of the major dart games, the owners of the martial arts halls, and even the big shopkeepers behind the gambling houses and wine shops, most of whom are rich and people. And the gangs in the rivers and lakes naturally can't invite Yizhou and Hangzhou so far, the Shentu family attended, which is enough weight, and the others are some small gangs that are not in the ranks.
Ming Yi discussed it with him again and felt that this matter must be done. Its purpose is threefold, one is to make Ming Yi rightfully become the leader of the Shangguan gang, before only as the acting gang leader, did not officially take office, now the four elders and deputy gang leaders are here, unanimously witness her sitting in the right position, and in the future, when she goes out to talk and do things, some people look at the face and have a lot of scruples; The second is to reveal Shi Ruoshan's true face in front of people, and in the future, it will be clear from the Peach Seven Gang, if Tao Sanniang can hand over Shi Ruoshan, it will be enough, if they are dedicated to protection, they will also be beaten in a position of ingratitude and murder; The third is to show the signboard of the quality world, in Chang'an City, there is no force to collect and lend money with great fanfare, and the quality world must occupy this loophole, otherwise this bowl of soup will not be the turn of the Shangguan gang. The money in the hands of the businessmen invited this time is amazing, but they don't dare to deal more with the money of the official family, for fear that the official will turn his face, and the money will not be able to get back, and people can still get in, so it is also urgent to ask the world to have such a loan collector with the power of the rivers and lakes behind it.
is to make a scene for the quality of the world, and everything must not be shabby. The camp of the Shangguan gang is considered to give people a long face, and for this twenty-ninth birthday banquet of Feng Mingyi, Xia Huanfeng is not ambiguous. Put the cash on hand into it, outside the camp is ten miles of red silk, all the brothers of the martial arts hall and the dart bureau have made a new soap silk armor, all the way to greet it, the momentum is magnificent.
The banquet scene is even more extravagant, hump bear paws, scarlet lips fish white, sugar-soaked crab pangolin, even Rong Yifang can not enjoy such a delicious. In the main hall, there are 48 bronze stoves carved in gold and jade, and the seats are made of brand new sika deerskin, in order to make guests feel comfortable in winter.
Hospitality and singing and dancing must be first-class, in addition to the four Qing people of Chengwei Pavilion at the door, specially for the guests to store the big coat coat, the whole courtyard of Xinglu Courtyard gathered, for the guests to serve wine, but also prepared a variety of songs and dances, at any time.
Ming Yi pondered for a while, whether he should invite Wu Qianping to attend. Xia Huanfeng's meaning, I still have to please. In and outside the city of Chang'an, who doesn't know that the relationship between the two of them is very high, if Wu Qianping did not attend her birthday banquet this time, it will definitely lead to a lot of speculation. This time is sensitive, Wu Qianping was promoted to the Ministry of Industry, and Mingyi's belly couldn't be covered for long, and it was interpreted by people with a heart that Mingyi had personal affairs with others, Wu Qianping was promoted to abandon his old love, and even turned against him, so how dare these businessmen put money in the hostage of her Shangguan gang.
Ming Yi thought about it, so he sent a post to Wu Shilang's mansion, but he was also worried, afraid that he would not come to appreciate his face. can only say that he has done his best and knows the destiny of heaven. If he didn't come, Ming Yi also thought of a later move, and found someone to send a congratulatory gift on the spot in the name of Wu Qianping, and others would understand. Wu Qianping would not bother with her for such a small matter.
To be honest, Ming Yi didn't know exactly when his birthday was. This age is correct, in this era, a twenty-nine-year-old woman is already the age at which she can raise her children as the head of a family. Thinking of this, she inevitably felt a little sad, and what made her heart flutter even more was that she watched the cost of this preparation and shake off all the real money she had earned for a long time.
Chu Niangzi also arrived for two days, and when Chu Boyan saw that A-Niang was coming, he put away his fascinated appearance for Yinniang, and was cautious everywhere.
On the first day, Ming Yi waited in the hall in the morning, the stove burned in the house like a spring day, and the hall was full of beautiful women, holding jade pots and silver plates, a good scene of a feast in Yaochi. The floor-length robe embroidered with gold thread and brocade on Ming Yi's body was quite heavy, but it covered the slight bulge of his abdomen. Although she was in a bad mood during this time, she also had the heart to take good care of her body, and her face was much better and moisturized.
There was a look of surprise in the eyes of the comers, they knew that the Shangguan gang had built a camp in Chang'an, but they thought that they would not be able to match the camp of the original Tianyi gang, they never thought that it would be so magnificent, and the appearance of the gang was completely different.
The grandeur of this hall also made the guests speechless, and in the face of Mingyi, they immediately lost the original domineering. Ming Yi and Xia Huanfeng were entertained together, which was impressive, and the women did not let them shave their eyebrows.
The Shentu brothers also gave face, rushed from Luoyang, and attended with Monk Ren. When the other guests saw the two of them coming, and talked and laughed with Mingyi, they sighed even more, this Shangguan gang has gone from a little-known gang in Yangzhou to this point.
When the hour came, the guests were all seated, and Wu Qianping still did not appear. Mingyi had already prepared for this, so he asked Lianshan to prepare a South Jewelry Tower, and later find a face-to-face dart master, put on the soap clothes of the yamen and send it up, just saying that it was the leader of Wu Shilang He Feng.
Xia Huanfeng has been in Chang'an for a long time, and he is more familiar with those sitting businessmen and presiding over the birthday banquet.
The first step was to announce that Feng Mingyi had officially assumed the position of the leader of the Shangguan gang, led by Xia Huanfeng, and led the four elders to congratulate the gang leader on his birthday. Everyone in the audience heard the sound of Suo Suo's head to ear, especially those who are familiar with the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and they can't help but talk about Shi Ruoshan's marriage to Tao Qi Niang as the leader of Shangguan's gang is like yesterday, why did he kick him out here.
In the second case, Chu Niangzi stood up, unfolded a roll of white silk, and wrote Shi Ruoshan's ten major crimes. From being indolent in pleasure and not wanting to forge ahead, to being cowardly and incompetent, from lustful and disloyal to ungrateful. It's also dizzy to listen to, but the last one is shocking: deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, seek power and kill people!
In the name of the old gang leader's family, Chu Niangzi accused Shi Ruoshan of how he pretended to marry Shangguan Yun, how he murdered Shangguan Yun's father and daughter, how he deceived the world and stole his name, plus Shangguan Yun and Ju Thunder, who escaped death, wrote by himself, and the evidence was conclusive.
The others didn't care much about what kind of person Shi Ruoshan was, but now that they heard this excitement and were so entertained by the main family, they naturally showed a look of righteous indignation, and scolded Shi Ruoshan together.
Shen Tu also stood up at this time, declaring that Shi Ruoshan deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors, not only had a blood feud with the Shangguan gang, but also a shame for the entire martial arts. If such a person is so immoral and corrupt, if he is in a high position, it is a moral decline in the rivers and lakes. After today, if Shi Ruoshan dares to appear on the territory of the Shentu gang, he will tie up the five flowers, send them to the Feng gang leader, and sacrifice them in front of the grave of the old gang leader in Shangguan.
