Chapter 269: Situational Impact
At the wedding banquet, Shen Deshan responded to the kindness of Xie Tongfu and other officials with just the right smile, and Shen Zeyuan's expression was similar.
This pair of uncles and nephews know the intricacies of officialdom very well, but the roles outside are all handled by the Shen family, who are known for their sleek and actuarial calculations, and what they are best at is the lively atmosphere.
So in the hall of the Lu family at this moment, whether it is a high-ranking official in Xining Province or a businessman in Guizhou, the atmosphere is quite harmonious.
For example, Xiao Ruoyuan said with interest: "Originally, Master Peng also planned to come to congratulate him, but it just so happened that Anxi Du Zhao Yugang came to visit, so Lord Peng had no time to be idle." He also said that he would go to Jingzhao to report on his work another day, and then have two drinks with Lord Shen. After that, he smiled again, raised his wine glass, and congratulated Shen Zeyuan on his happy son-in-law.
When the officials below heard this, they analyzed the meaning of this sentence. The Master Peng that Xiao Ruoyuan refers to is naturally Peng Mingyi, the general of Xining Wei, which means that Peng Mingyi also cares about the family affairs of the Lu and Shen families? Is this releasing the goodwill of Peng Mingyi, the general of Xining Wei, to the Shen family?
Peng Mingyi is in charge of the 120,000 soldiers and horses of Xiningwei, and he has always ignored these things, which means that Peng Mingyi is also good friends with the Shen family?
Many officials began to speculate about what kind of family business Lu Zhisheng had climbed.
Li Huishan, the assassin of Queensland, smiled all the way, but his heart was full of doubts: I haven't heard that my brother-in-law has mentioned that he has a relationship with the Shen family, and besides, the military and government have never been fornicated, what is going on today? Why are there so many weird places in this wedding reception? Don't talk about the powerful people in Xining Road, let's just say that the businessmen and riches in Xining Road have come so much?
I haven't heard that there are children of the Shen family in Xining Road, and I haven't heard of any business in Xining Road!
Li Huishan is the son of the Li family in Queensland, and as a merchant family in Queensland, Li Huishan naturally knows many business tycoons from all walks of life in Xining Road.
Isn't that Chen Mingxun, the chief treasurer of Qianqiu Qianzhuang in Xining Road? Also, that is He Dianmo, the most proud son of the younger generation of the He family in Guizhou, right? ——The more Li Huishan looked at it, the more frightened he became.
For among these visiting guests he found many familiar and unfamiliar merchants, families, or officials. That is to say, this small family affair of the Guizhou Thorn Shi Lu family gathered the main personnel of the Xining Taoist and business circles.
No. Maybe there is also the military department, Xiao Ruoyuan is smiling brightly!
It's just a little family affair. It's just that a Guizhou assassin marries his third daughter-in-law, why do these officials appear here?
I was moved by the wind and watched the actions of Xie Tongfu and Xiao Ruoyuan, so what are these two people for?
The more frightened Li Huishan was, the more ordinary his face became, he was thinking about this matter, and he must tell the clan elders and brothers everything he saw today as soon as possible.
Not sure why. He looked at Shen Deshan, Shen Zeyuan and everyone greetings, and a panic surged in his heart, as if he felt that something was about to happen.
Because of this inexplicable panic, he had to behave well in front of Xie Tongfu. At the next wedding banquet, Li Huishan only symbolically swallowed the wine glass, and he didn't dare to drink much, for fear of drinking too much and losing his sense of proportion in front of Xie Tongfu and other officials.
Shen Zeyuan remembered Li Cishan, the president of the Medicine Market Guild he saw in Wenzhen. This Li Huishan is Li Cishan's cousin, and these two people look very similar. Queensland Lee's? I'm looking for a chance to visit.
Thinking of this, Shen Zeyuan raised his wine glass. After being cautious about Xie Tongfu and Xiao Ruoyuan and others, he came to Li Huishan and said with a smile: "I've seen Master Li!" Thank you Lord Li for coming to the little girl's wedding banquet, and the grass people give a glass to Lord Li! ”
Listening to the closeness in Shen Zeyuan's tone, watching him lower his wine glass by half a bit, Li Huishan also smiled and followed Shen Zejing's words: "Brother Shen Xian doesn't have to be polite, the marriage of my niece is also a happy event for us." Here, a toast! The tone was heroic and free, as if he and Shen Zeyuan had seen each other.
Just kidding, although Shen Zeyuan called himself a grass man to himself, the Queensland Thorn History, but even the Xining Dao Observer and the Deputy General Xining Wei treated Shen Zeyuan with courtesy, could he still dare to take advantage of the Queensland Thorn History?
Being an official, political achievements and so on, are all secondary, the key is to have vision, what should be done, what should not be done, who should give face, and who should be faced, Li Huishan thinks that he is still very clear at this point.
So he faced Shen Zeyuan's toast, and it was all in one cup, and his posture and face were fully done.
Looking at Li Huishan's upside-down wine glass, Shen Zeyuan smiled unkindly in his heart. That's right! He came to salute this glass of wine for such an effect. I didn't expect this Queensland Thorn History to be a sincere person, so things will be easy to do!
After Shen Zeyuan, the children of the Shen family, Shen Yule, Shen Yushou and others, came to toast Li Huishan again.
In addition, under the instigation of Shen Zeru, the thorn history and long history of various states also toasted each other. These officials usually rarely get together, and this time they have the opportunity to toast a few glasses and drink a few glasses, which is a matter of course.
In this way, after round and round of wine, Li Huishan felt a little dizzy and felt that he had drunk a little too much. Originally, I wanted to take a closer look at the performance of the Shen family, but I couldn't really see it. I also wanted to think carefully about why Xie Tongfu and Xiao Ruoyuan appeared here, but I didn't have the heart to think about it.
Looking at Li Huishan's drunken appearance, Shen Deshan and Hu Butu smiled with satisfaction. Fortunately, there are a lot of people in the Shen family here, otherwise they would really not be able to go around so many circles to get Li Huishan drunk.
Drunk Li Huishan, this was something that their group had agreed on before they came to Lu Mansion, and now everything is going well, of course they are smiling.
The purpose is, first, to create a friendship with the Li family, so that when you go to Queensland in the future, you will have the basis for negotiation and posting, which is the principle of friendship;
The second is to prevent him from seeing everyone in the Shen family so seriously. Sometimes a few words will become a clue to explore, Shen Deshan doesn't want Li Huishan to have any chance, hazy is the best;
The third is to give Li Huishan a chance to have an "erotic encounter", anyway, everything has been arranged, just send him to get drunk a few times, and his mind is a little dizzy.
Seeing that Li Huishan was a little drunk, the host Lu Zhisheng hurriedly instructed the subordinates in the house to help Li Huishan to the side to rest, instructed the maid to wipe Li Huishan, and ordered the decanting soup and so on.
Immediately, several other officials also wanted to behave well in front of Xie Tongfu, and they also toasted a few rounds of drinks, naturally, they all drank too much, and Lu Zhisheng was busy enough.
Xie Tongfu and Xiao Ruoyuan saw this, and when they were halfway through the banquet, they left. These two people came, making a gesture, and they didn't think about staying until the end.
Before parting, they also greeted Shen Deshan and Shen Zeyuan, asked them to greet Shen Huashan, who was far away in Jingzhao, and invited them to go to the mansion as guests, etc.—this is of course a kind word, Shen Deshan and Shen Zeyuan no longer have eyes, and it is impossible to observe the embassy and Xiningwei's station.
As soon as Xie Tongfu and Xiao Ruoyuan left, Li Huishan, Kong Zhuzhao and other officials also said goodbye one after another, and those drunken officials also left the Lu family one after another with the support of the long history and domestic servants in their respective mansions.
Of course, at this time, the wedding banquet also came to an end, and Lu knew that the groom was already drunk. The thing of the flower candle was naturally done, no matter how drunk he was, Xiao Dengke still knew how to do it.
Shen Zeyuan waited for the Shen family, and he stayed until the end. They still have some things to say to Lu Zhisheng.
After all the guests left, Shen Zeyuan and Lu Zhisheng could have a good conversation. From now on, the Lu and Shen families are in-laws, to be honest, that is the relationship of both prosperity and loss.
Although something happened to the Lu family, the Shen family would not necessarily be implicated, but if the Shen family fell, the Lu family would definitely be affected, because the Shen family was involved in a major event, so this time, the two of them had to plan well for the future.
On this night, the candles of the Lu family were bright, some people were small Dengke, and some people were shocked and thought hard, seeking a way out for the future......
On the second day, when Shen Yao went to serve tea to her in-laws Lu Zhisheng and Lu Jiangshi with the unique shyness and joy of a bride, she didn't know that her father-in-law was still immersed in the shock of last night.
After the guests left last night, Shen Zeyuan told Lu Zhisheng about the latest developments in Jingzhao, and he had just known about these things, and when he met with the Lu family two days earlier, the news had not yet come.
Shen Zeyuan is the prince supervising the country, Shen Huashan assisting, etc., so that Lu Zhisheng knows in his heart: during this period of time in the prince's prison country, no matter how big or small, there must be no mistakes in the area under his jurisdiction, the situation is sensitive, and if there is a mistake, it may be a major event to destroy the family.
Lu Zhisheng has been an official for many years, so he naturally knows what it means for the prince to supervise the country, it seems that Jingzhao is going to be in chaos, the officials are striking, and his own policy and governance in Guizhou during this period of time must be conservative and prudent, and it should be a dormant stage. At this time, under his own jurisdiction, absolutely nothing can happen.
Thinking of the excitement of last night's wedding banquet, Lu Zhisheng suddenly realized. No wonder, Lord Xie and Lord Xiao will come to the wedding banquet, presumably they have already learned the news, this is to attract political capital in advance.
Lu Zhisheng was both happy and a little worried, and his mood was quite complicated. Zhongshu Ling's family, Wu Yue Shen's family, what kind of family business did he seek for his young son?
Lu Zhisheng didn't know what to say for a while, but there was a faint blood boiling: It seems that the opportunity for his family to rise is also coming!
ps:
Midnight! Thank you!
