Chapter 21: The Birthday Feast
The entire banquet hall cast a surprised look at Bai Yufeng, and then someone recognized his identity.
"Wow, it's the White Hall Master, and the White Hall Master is also here to attend the empty old man's birthday banquet!"
"It's really him, I didn't expect him to come. β
β......β
The three words Bai Yufeng are now almost a household name in Lanshan City, although many people have never seen him, but as long as they mention this name, they will praise him.
Just as in the hall now, everyone was looking at him with a gaze called admiration and admiration.
Sky Blade and Sky Sky Absolute were quite surprised, they didn't have any friendship with Jade Wind Hall Bai Yufeng, so Sky Sky Blade's birthday banquet didn't invite him.
And how did Bai Yufeng get in, you must know that no matter what the identity of the person who comes here, he has to show the invitation card issued by the empty family, and without the invitation, he is not qualified to enter, how did he bypass the inspection outside the door?
When Liao Bufan heard that this person was Bai Yufeng, he looked at Bai Yufeng's face very seriously.
When he heard Xiao Yan say that, he had already planned to find a way to teach this Bai Yufeng some lessons in secret, he wanted to let the Ethereal Spirit understand that only he, Liao Bufan, was worthy of the reputation and status of the Kong family, and at this moment he couldn't help but want to take a good look at who this Bai Yufeng was.
But just when he looked at Bai Yufeng, the ethereal attitude beside him made him completely stunned.
I saw her stand up from the chair with tears in her eyes, her appearance was like a wounded lark finding her home, she frantically pounced and hugged Bai Yufeng, as if she no longer wanted to let go of this person.
Ethereal Spirit never dreamed that Bai Yufeng would appear here, after yesterday's incident, she was completely desperate for Bai Yufeng, but she didn't expect that when she was about to jump off the abyss, Bai Yufeng appeared in front of her again.
The entire banquet hall fell silent in an instant, and the only thing that existed was countless pairs of eyes that were too surprised to look at them.
Bai Yufeng didn't expect Ethereal Spirit's reaction to be so strong, but she still patted Ethereal Spirit's back gently, which might be a spiritual comfort for her.
However, looking at the countless eyes around him, he said with a little embarrassment: "Don't ...... Don't look at it, let's eat all the vegetables, we can't be full when we look at us!"
"Yes, yes, eat vegetables, this is the Beihai Snow Lotus Nest worth a hundred taels of gold, don't waste it. β
"Eat quickly, eat quickly, this thing tastes really good, phew, this dish tastes pretty good......"
β......β
Everyone unanimously did not express any opinions, no one here was qualified to evaluate Bai Yufeng, and it was impossible for them to discuss this kind of thing in front of the Sky Blade.
Liao Bufan, who was pale, clenched his fists, but his patience was really very human, Rao was so still not attacking on the spot, but constantly controlling his emotions.
He wants to show his proper demeanor on the 80th birthday of the Sky Blade, and he wants to make anyone have nothing to say about his Liao Bufan's actions.
Liao Feifan looked at Kong Tianjue coldly and said, "Master of the Empty Family, you have to give my Liao family an explanation." β
Kongtian's eyes flickered, and he said without confidence: "This ...... This we ...... I don't know what's going on, the little girl is really ...... She's so ignorant, we'll educate her well. β
His eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't finish a normal sentence for a long time.
Liao Feifan said angrily: "Is this a matter of education, the marriage was personally proposed by Kong Xuanzhan at the beginning, if you think it is not appropriate to say it directly, why insult my Liao family on such an occasion?"
Before Kong Tiande could speak, the ethereal spirit who was holding Bai Yufeng tightly turned his head and said loudly: "Don't say these useless things, my ethereal spirit will not marry a scumbag like Liao Bufan." β
Sky Blade's eyes widened, and the white beard under his nose was blown high, and he only heard and said: "Do you want to be angry with your father and your grandfather, you don't look at what kind of occasion this is, you ...... Ahem......"
The Sky Blade bent down and coughed, and an apology suddenly appeared on the face of the Ethereal Spirit, no matter what, this matter had affected the Sky Family after all.
But when she thought of marrying someone like Liao Bufan, Ethereal Spirit only felt that her entire future had fallen into boundless darkness, and she could no longer see a trace of light in her life.
When the ethereal spirit was dumbfounded, Bai Yufeng finally stood up at this time, and he said with a smile: "Old man Kong, don't be angry, no matter what, it was me Bai Yufeng who disturbed your 80th birthday banquet today, and I, Bai Yufeng, apologize to you first, and also compensate all the guests." β
Bai Yufeng bowed in three directions in front of him, and the sky snorted coldly, but he didn't interrupt his words.
Bai Yufeng continued: "But this matter is related to the happiness of the ethereal spirit in his life, and the younger generation can only offend more here. β
Liao Bufan stared at him coldly and said, "Since you know that the happiness of the ethereal spirit is related to her life, why do you still bother the marriage between me and her?"
Bai Yufeng smiled faintly and said, "I think you may not have heard what the ethereal spirit said just now, then I'll repeat it to you, she doesn't have any interest in you, and she won't marry a scumbag like you, can you hear clearly?"
Liao Bufan didn't have time to speak, Liao Feifan had already answered: "Presumptuous, the words of the matchmaker of her parents, the major events of her life can only be determined by her parents and elders, and the choice of her parents and elders is the best, besides, the marriage contract between them was set when she was a child, what qualifications do you have to make irresponsible remarks here." β
Liao Bufan sneered: "Yes, she hasn't married me yet, how do you know that she won't be happy with me?"
"Fart, you ......"
Ethereal Ling wanted to say something, but was stopped by Bai Yufeng again, she was emotionally unstable, coupled with her usual big grin, now every word may be dirty, there are so many guests here, this has a bad impact on the reputation of the empty family after all.
Bai Yufeng intercepted: "Then I want to ask Brother Liao a question, you are now a student of the Holy Dynasty Mansion, I don't know what rank you are in the Mansion now?"
Speaking of this, a hint of pride suddenly appeared on Liao Bufan's face, and his voice subconsciously raised a little.
"The first in liberal arts, the top three in martial arts, and I also took the ...... of Chinese studies and politics"
A series of words in exchange for envious exclamations all around, I have to say that Liao Bufan's achievements in these aspects are outstanding, and it is no wonder that he is staring at the blue sky with his nostrils when he walks on the street.
Bai Yufeng said with a hint of a smile: "Then presumably, after the completion of the study of the national government, you will definitely be elected as Mr. Guozi of the Great Yan Holy Dynasty, and you may even be awarded the title of Marquis of one party by the emperor." β
Liao Bufan's face was even more proud, and he said, "Now I know how happy the ethereal spirit will be with me." β
Of course, Bai Yufeng will not argue with him about what is not a clichΓ© topic that money can make people happy, after all, many people think that the premise of happiness is that there must be abundant material things, and this kind of value is not a result of arguments.
I only heard Bai Yufeng say: "As far as I know, there is another process for the emperor to confer the position of marquis, and you must be asked to choose one of the many princesses of the Holy Dynasty as the marquise, right?" β
"This ......"
Liao Bufan was dumbfounded for a moment, now he was talking about the marriage between him and the Ethereal Spirit, but Bai Yufeng led it to another topic, and it was such a sensitive topic.
Liao Feifan interjected on the side: "Since they have all become marquises, why not have a few more ladies?"
Bai Yufeng said lightly: "Then I don't know who Brother Liao plans to give as his wife?"
"This ......"
Liao Bufan was dumbfounded again, is it definitely inappropriate to say in front of the empty family to let the ethereal spirit be small, but is it even more inappropriate to let a princess be small?
Bai Yufeng continued: "You should all know that Liao Bufan will never let a princess be a concubine, neither the emperor nor the princess herself can agree, then you can only let the ethereal spirit be small, but don't forget, Kong Xuanzhan was the one who laid down half of the Great Yan Holy Dynasty at the beginning, although his old man doesn't care about the world and only cares about cultivation now, but it is not suitable to let his descendants be concubines." β
The guests around nodded one after another, and Bai Yufeng's words really made some sense.
Thinking that after the old madman came out of the customs, he knew that his granddaughter was accepted as a concubine, he was afraid that he would really go crazy, and once the empty Xuanzhan went crazy, the consequences would be absolutely unimaginable.
Liao Bufan hurriedly said: "Everything is unknown now, who said that I will definitely be awarded the title of Marquis by the emperor?"
Bai Yufeng sneered at this moment and said, "You are not even sure that you can become a marquis, what qualifications do you have to marry an ethereal spirit as a wife? If you become a marquis and can only accept an ethereal spirit as a concubine, how can you give him a title and happiness?"
"You ......"
Liao Bufan only felt that he couldn't vent his anger, and he was speechless when Bai Yufeng said three or two sentences, and he didn't even think of a word to refute it.
In normal times, he could also use his eloquence to argue with Bai Yufeng, but now that he saw the ethereal spirit and Bai Yufeng holding hands, and it was still in this banquet hall, Liao Bufan's thoughts were already angry, the more angry he was, the more he panicked, and the more hurried he was, the more chaotic he became.
Bai Yufeng's voice raised a few points, and he continued: "Although Kong Xuanzhan lives in seclusion in this Lanshan City, you don't know the merits he has made for the Great Yan Holy Dynasty, you are not a marquis, and an ordinary small family actually wants to take his old man's granddaughter as a concubine, what are your intentions?!"
Bai Yufeng's words became more and more fierce, and in the end, every word was like an arrow constantly inserting into Liao Bufan's heart.
Liao Bufan's face turned pale in an instant, sweat was like rain, and he sat on the chair and couldn't even say a word.
Kong Tianjue looked at Bai Yufeng's eyes were constantly shining, he and Yufeng Hall had never had anything to do with him, only that the hall master of Yufeng Hall was a very young and powerful person, and he only understood where this young man was powerful when he met for the first time today.
Liao Feifan's face was also pale with anger, he stood up suddenly and shouted angrily: "What about you, what are you, what kind of thing are you, and what qualifications do you have to marry an ethereal spirit?"
Bai Yufeng said lightly: "The head of the Liao family still hopes to be able to control your emotions, after all, today is the eightieth birthday of the empty old man, and you have to choose the right place for a quarrel." β
"You ......"
Liao Feifan suddenly turned his head to look at the sky and said, "Master of the Empty Family, you just let this wild boy talk nonsense here, what kind of system is this?"
"Ahem, today is my father's 80th birthday, don't hurt the harmony, let's talk about these things later. β
Kong Tianjue coughed twice, then looked at the ethereal spirit and scolded: "Ethereal spirit, don't you know that today is your grandfather's eightieth birthday, it's just nonsense, haven't you gone to the family forbidden ground to think about it?"
"Dad, I ......"
Ethereal Spirit wanted to say something, but was stopped by Bai Yufeng again, and he said softly: "Listen to your father, go." β
Ethereal and anxious: "But I, I want to ...... with you"
Bai Yufeng said: "With me, you will be fine, but now is not the time." β
Ethereal Ling was unwilling, but she still nodded obediently, just because Bai Yufeng's words made her feel extremely comfortable and warm, after waiting for so long, wasn't she waiting for his words?
Glaring at Liao Bufan fiercely, the ethereal spirit left the banquet hall under the leadership of the two family masters.
Liao Feifan was so angry that he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, did I let you blow Bai Yufeng away, what are you doing to drive the ethereal spirit away?
She's gone, how can you let my son have a relationship with her, not only do you not help, but you don't help?
But Kong Tian never knew if it was intentional or didn't understand what Liao Feifan meant, anyway, he just watched the ethereal spirit leave the hall without saying a word.
Kong Tianjue said: "Okay everyone, don't let my ignorant little girl affect your meal, you ......"
Before the words were spoken, a black shadow rushed in from outside the door, and a table closest to the gate was smashed, and everyone screamed, just because this black shadow was actually a person.
He lifted all his strength and barely pointed out the door to say something, but without saying a word, he fell unconscious.
Then, I saw a tall burly figure at the door, carrying a huge black mace on his shoulder, and entered the hall with a majestic momentum.
Bai Yufeng let out an exclamation, this tall and burly figure was none other than Ji Man.
