Ning Guohou is Ning Guohou after all.

No matter how depressed he has been in the past few years, the pomp and circumstance of being a Hou Ye has not fallen.

The scale of this banquet was far larger than Xu Han imagined.

The guests who came, three layers inside and three layers outside, filled the hall of the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion, leaving only a long aisle in the middle.

When Xu Han followed the attendant into the main hall, the guests who had already sat down all cast their eyes on Xu Han's body.

Xu Han has lived for eighteen years, but he has never received such courtesy, but he is not stage frightened, although he is a little strange for the eyes cast by everyone, but he still straightened his waist and walked with the attendant to the position that had been arranged for him.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that Ye Chengtai arranged for him to be the first under the main seat, which made Xu Han stunned.

He couldn't help but glance sideways at Ye Chengtai, but saw that the middle-aged man was also looking at him with a smile on the corner of his mouth at the moment.

Xu Han felt that the smile was a little strange, but after all, this banquet was a big occasion, and Xu Han didn't want to ask too much, so he could only put away his doubts and sit down.

"Meow. As soon as she sat down, Xuan'er's eyes were attracted by the sumptuous food placed on the desk, and she let out a long call of surprise, and her body jumped down on the desk, and her nose kept sniffing between the foods, as if to distinguish which one was her favorite taste.

"Gluttony. Seeing this, Xu Han laughed and scolded, but his eyes were full of pampering when he looked at Xuan'er.

At this time, the eyes of everyone on the field still did not retract, and most of them still looked at Xu Han with curiosity or puzzlement.

Sensing this, Xu Han was slightly stunned.

I don't understand.

Most of the people in this hall are high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Chang'an City, wearing silk and satin, and eating delicacies from the mountains and seas. Xu Han was dressed in sackcloth, with a black cat, and his right arm was tied with a white cloth. Dressed like this, even Xu Han knew that compared to these dignitaries, it was a little out of place.

He had just entered the hall before, and everyone was curious to look at him, why did these people's eyes still fall on him at this time?

Is this kind of costume really so unusual for the big men of Chang'an?

Xu Han couldn't help but quip secretly in his heart.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the little girl was accepted as a disciple by the Linglong Pavilion Elder Si Blank, I think everyone already knows. At this time, Ye Chengtai, as the master, finally lifted his wine glass and said aloud to everyone in the audience.

"The little girl can have this blessing, thanks to your help to my Ye Mansion over the years, and I will give you a cup here. ”

These words are naturally a scene, Ning Guohou has lost power for many years, and there are only a handful of guests in Ning Guohou's Mansion in these years. If it weren't for Ye Hongjian's appreciation from Si Bai, most of the people present might not have taken him, the marquis, in their eyes.

Ye Chengtai and everyone present knew these things. But no one was willing to break it, but they all raised their glasses at that time, as if they were old friends, and then drank the wine in their glasses.

Xu Han was naturally no exception, but when he drank a glass of sake and put down the glass, he felt that someone was not far away from him and cast a glance at him.

This gaze was different from that of the others, it was not doubtful or curious, it was only full of hostility.

Xu Han was stunned for a moment, and he looked in the direction where his gaze came.

But not far from his position, a young man his age was staring at him.

The young man was dressed in brocade clothes and had a jade belt around his waist, and he was born a little handsome, but the gloomy aura between his eyebrows really made Xu Han a little unhappy.

Xu Han couldn't understand that he only arrived in Chang'an yesterday, and today Ye Hongjian first came to the door to make trouble, and at this moment, it was the son who looked like he was from a noble background and looked at him coldly. But where exactly provoked these people, Xu Han didn't know.

He simply stopped looking at the boy brother, and lowered his head to tease Xuan'er, but the other party's gaze fell on Xu Han's body like a maggot on the tarsal bone, as if he wanted to kill Xu Han on the spot.

"Yesterday, I was already tired of you coming to share the joy that the little girl was valued by Lord Blank, and today I shouldn't have bothered you anymore..."At this time, Ye Chengtai said again.

"Where is Master Hou!"

"Yes, we have known Hou Ye for many years, but if Hou Ye has a life, how can we not obey?"

Ye Chengtai's words had just come out, and several people below took over the conversation, and responded very enthusiastically, if you don't know that others see this scene, most of them will sigh that Ye Chengtai and everyone have such feelings. It's just that what the truth is, I'm afraid only Ye Chengtai knows it in his heart.

"Yes, yes, yes. Ye Chengtai heard what everyone said, and hurriedly smiled and nodded. "It's just that you are invited here today, but there is still an important matter to announce. ”

Ye Chengtai said with a smile, and then stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu Han not far away.

Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Han again at that time.

Xu Han's heart was shocked, and he didn't understand what Ye Chengtai meant by this move.

But he subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and the muscles around him tensed up instantaneously at that moment. This is an instinct that has been born and died many times, as long as Ye Chengtai says something that is not good for him, he can react in the fastest time to deal with it.

"This son is called Xu Han. ”

"It's after my death. ”

"From this day forward, he will be..."

Xu Han's heart rose to his throat at that moment, thinking of Ye Hongjian's abrupt attitude today, I am afraid that this Ye Chengtai has already told Ye Hongjian his identity, and he may want to make it public at this moment.

The apprentice of the master of Tiance Mansion, how sensitive should such an identity be?

And how many people will want to get rid of it quickly?

Just thinking of this, Xu Han's heart sank, and the secret master didn't know anyone.

"The husband of the little girl Ye Hongjian!"

As soon as these words fell, everyone in the audience rang out with a congratulatory voice.

"Huh?"

And what about Xu Han?

The corners of his mouth twitched, and his face became extremely ugly, no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't imagine that Ye Chengtai would play such a trick on him!

He looked around the audience in a daze, but saw that everyone was congratulating him, whether it was out of hypocrisy or falsehood, but at the moment they all had a slow smile on their faces.

Obviously, they already knew about the news.

Thinking about it so carefully, Xu Han understood a little bit why Ye Hongjian suddenly came to the door today and faced him with a sword.

And the fact is that this is the case, the news that the daughter of the Marquis of Ningguo Mansion was going to marry a little-known young man was released by Ye Chengtai today, and he also took the opportunity to invite most of the dignitaries in Chang'an City to come to congratulate. This news can be described as a stone that stirred up a thousand waves, to say who is the man of the year in Chang'an City today?

Even if there is an illiterate peddler pawn on the side of the road, whenever this question is asked, he will say Ye Chengtai's name without thinking.

His precious daughter, who was appreciated by the Linglong Pavilion Division, made many people covetous.

Not to mention that Ye Hongjian was born pretty, but the identity of Si Bai's personal disciple was enough to make most of the princes in Chang'an City rush to him, and some people secretly had already weighed how to form this Qin and Jin friendship with his Ye Mansion.

But I didn't want to kill a Xu Han who came out of nowhere halfway, and he received such a beautiful girl.

At the same time, everyone is envious, but they are also helpless.

After all, Ye Chengtai gave everyone a notice, not a discussion, no matter how regretful he was in his heart, he could only greet him with a smile.

It's just that Xu Han has been living in the mansion, and there is no one he knows in the city, so he has no way of knowing, so that he is the last to know this news.

Thinking of this, Xu Han turned his head a little woodenly and looked at Ye Chengtai sitting on the main seat, the look on his face was extremely exciting, and his pen and ink were indescribable.

Ye Chengtai turned a blind eye to Xu Han's questioning gaze, but smiled and raised a glass to the guests around him to celebrate, as if he was really happy that his daughter had found a wishful husband.

At that time, Xu Han's eyes gradually narrowed when he looked at Ye Chengtai.

He had probably guessed Ye Chengtai's thoughts.

Ning Guohou said that he was a marquis, but he was just a nobleman in the capital who had a false name.

Ye Hongjian's entry into the Linglong Pavilion pushed him to the forefront of the storm, and in desperation, he chose to board the chariot of Tiance Mansion.

But he was not satisfied with just being a pawn.

He wanted to send the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion or his daughter Ye Hongjian to the power center of the Tiance Mansion, so as to ensure that his daughter could be in a relatively safe position in the upcoming battle between the Tiance Mansion and the Long Night Division, at least not to be a chess piece that could be discarded at any time.

And Xu Han.

This disciple of the master of the Tiance Mansion is undoubtedly the fastest shortcut to achieve this in Ye Chengtai's opinion.

That's why there's that drama.

Tell the whole of Chang'an that his daughter is going to marry Xu Han.

This is the price he offered to Xu Han, the reward he needs to board the chariot of Tiance Mansion.

It's just that what he didn't know was that although Xu Han was a disciple of his master, he didn't necessarily know much more about Tiance Mansion than him.

Of course, from Ye Chengtai's standpoint, whether it is for his family or his daughter, his approach is not wrong.

But Xu Han didn't like it.

This feeling of being taken advantage of is not a good experience for Xu Han.

He looked at Ye Chengtai at that time, and the chill in his eyes became more and more intense.

"What is this guy, and he is also worthy of marrying a red note!?" Just as the anger in Xu Han's heart was burning more and more, a sinister voice suddenly sounded.

But it was the boy who had been looking at Xu Han with hostility.

"Are you again?" Xu Han slowly turned his head when he heard this, looked at the son-in-law, and asked in a cold voice.

"Lin Kai!"
