It's the season of love. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the streets of Phoenix.

On the street, a young man chased after his girlfriend helplessly, smiling wryly and saying, "Oh, can you go slowly? Even if Earth Street doesn't open today, you can't buy anything to blame me?"

"What?" the girl immediately turned around, like a cat whose tail had been trampled on, and puffed out her mouth, "You actually blame me......? Woowoo...... You wouldn't have spoken to me like that before!"

The boy immediately pointed to the sky and said, "Look, it's snowing." ”

"Don't change the subject!" the girl said angrily, "You do this every time, and when you see that I am angry, you will change the subject in various ways!"

"No, it's really snowing......"

"Isn't it coming? Isn't it coming...... Huh?" the girl stopped suddenly, and a small snowflake floated down her face, a little cold.

The quarrels between young men and women always come and go quickly, and when the first snow of the year falls under the brilliant lights, the girl's eyes flashed with fascination, and she murmured in a low voice: "It's so beautiful." ”

Seeing that the girl's attention was diverted, the boy hurriedly held her in his arms, and soon the little couple went away sweetly and lovingly.

"It's the first snow of the year. "Under the eaves of a shop, not far from the young couple, stood a woman in a graceful mink cape.

The woman was in a hurry, and her beautiful face was quite dusty, and it seemed that she was just resting under the eaves of the shop.

She looked at the young couple for a long time, as if admiring something simple and beautiful, until she saw the two of them go away, she smiled lightly, turned around and said, "Boss, thank you, I'm leaving." ”

"Ah, you're welcome, it's my honor to have a beautiful woman like you come to my shop to rest. The boss smiled innocently.

The woman waved her hand slightly, her posture was indescribably elegant and beautiful, and her figure slowly walked into the thin snow curtain.

She walked all the way, with a steady walk, and seemed to be very familiar with Phoenix.

She made it all the way to the headquarters of Earth Street, then at the entrance, her eyes moved slightly, she stopped, and looked at the two figures in front of her, showing an interested look.

It was a pair of people who looked like mother and son, the mother was not very old, in her early thirties, her forehead was very high, and there was a touch of sharpness in her tranquility.

The woman's child was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, and compared with his mother's smart appearance, this young man seemed very simple and a little silly.

When the woman in the cloak saw each other, the mother seemed to have a sense, turned her head, smiled slightly, and said, "What, this friend is also here to attend the masquerade banquet?"

"yes, you too?"

"Yes. ”

"Let's go together. The cloak woman shrugged her shoulders and generously took the initiative to invite, "This is the entrance to Earth Street, why don't you go in?"

"Because...... We didn't get an invitation. The young mother said.

The woman in the cloak smiled even brighter, and said, "What a coincidence, so did I, and I came by myself without receiving any invitation." ”

The wind and snow are getting worse.

The woman in the cloak walked towards Earth Street first, and said lightly, "Come with me, two of you." ”

The wind and snow parted in front of her, forming an empty path, from the entrance of Earth Street to the gate of the banquet site!

The young man's eyes widened, and his face was surprised and envious. The young mother just raised her eyebrows, didn't say anything, took her son's hand, and followed.

"Why are you here?" asked the cloak woman, smiling without looking back.

"Find relatives. The young mother said.

"Ah, yes, too. The woman in the cloak still didn't look back, just stared at the door of the banquet, and smiled so much that her eyes were crooked like a crescent, like a fox.

Just as the strange three people ignored all the Earth Street guards and went straight to the banquet site, a new change was born in the banquet.

The Twelve Round Tables, as Caesar had predicted, always liked to get things done all at once, leaving no room for error.

After Shiloh was announced as the first patriarch of the Family Alliance of the Twelve Round Tables, Xu Wenyuan stood up, and it seemed that the Earth Street side was going to take this opportunity to declare Wenyuan as the sole heir of the family in the future. Jace and Wen Yuan's faction wanted to use the support of the Twelve Round Table to completely suppress Wen Jing's vein.

It was surprising, but with Shiloh's precedent before, people were no longer so shaken at this moment.

As for Caesar, the second divine craftsman, the Twelve Round Table chose to deliberately ignore it, for them, the top priority was to cook the raw rice into rice, and there was no need to actively involve Caesar's variable. Of course, even if this guy who calls himself Master Yi really wants to come forward and express his opinion, it is nothing.

Because Shiloh and he are no longer on the same level.

Wen Jing had already walked away from Hongyi and Nuo Nuo, and walked very close to the stage.

The people of the military department, including Cassadine, also approached silently.

Representatives of the most powerful forces of the empire had unconsciously gathered in the center of the banquet scene, and the other guests had retreated to the periphery.

"I didn't expect things to move so fast...... Standing on the periphery, Moffett sighed extremely tiredly, turned his head to look at Caesar, and barely squeezed out a smile and said, "Master Yi, the family matter is what I just said, it's actually very boring, vulgar, and not surprising." Makes you smile. ”

Caesar looked at the old man, who was completely tired of the struggle from the inside out, and did not know what to say.

The situation on the scene is constantly changing, but Caesar has not come out, just quietly listening to the old man talk about the general situation of Earth Street.

In normal times, Moffett would not say these things to people, but he may have been really tired, Caesar had a feeling that no matter what the outcome of this banquet was, the old man would completely retire afterwards, away from the strife.

And about the situation of Earth Street, it's really simple to say.

The struggle between the Wen Jing faction and the Wen Yuan faction is, on the one hand, because of the difference in origin, although the Wen Yuan faction is relatively powerful, it is not the descendant of the founder of this ball street.

And Wen Jing, the real lineage, has no men.

Many families in the empire don't care much about the gender of their heirs, and many of the patriarchs are women, and Caesar doesn't quite understand why he has to have a male heir, but according to Moffett, this is important to the Earth Street family, and it is the rule set by the founder.

The current situation is that the Wenyuan faction controls most of the power of the family, and it is the one who is in power, but it has not completely controlled the family.

Wen Jing's faction is at a disadvantage.

On the one hand, the two sides have different backgrounds, and on the other hand, they have completely different ideas for the future development of the family, especially the latter, the differences and contradictions are so huge that they are almost irreconcilable.

And the founder of Earth Street patted his ass and went to Yunyou many years ago, leaving behind the huge family and ignoring it, and the struggle intensified.

At this time, Moffett glanced at Caesar deeply and said softly: "Master Yi, with all due respect, since you asked me these things, you must not be an ordinary person, and the fall when you entered the door before was fake, right?"

The old man did have superhuman experience and wisdom, and Caesar didn't think that he could hide it after this conversation, so he smiled and was noncommittal.

Moffett hesitated for a moment, and said, "If the master is willing to listen to me, a man who has come before, it is best not to get involved in such a struggle." ”

Caesar was noncommittal, but said sincerely, "Thank you." ”

The old and the young stopped talking and looked at the stage together.

Wen Jing had already taken the stage at this time, accompanied by an old woman with a dragon head cane. The old woman should be the elder of Wen Jing's lineage.

Jace was looking at the old woman, and said in a very polite tone: "Wen Yuan has become the future heir of the family, everyone has no opinion, do you have an opinion?"

On Jace and Wen Yuan's side, Shiloh and Bolin were on Shiloh's side, the old woman and Wen Jing's side, but there was no one else.

Neither Zhuo Yi nor Nuo Nuo expressed their position.

Everyone from the military department was also surprisingly silent.

No matter how you look at it, this is already a foregone conclusion.

The old woman's eyes had been looking at Jace, not at Wen Yuan, let alone at Bolin and Shiloh, and after a while, she asked, "The choice of the heir of the family, naturally we should ask everyone's opinions. The Twelve Round Tables are all members of the Empire, and it is okay to express some opinions, and I don't mind so much, and I will not protest with the useless argument of 'interfering in the internal affairs of other peoples'. ”

"But!"

"But!"

The old woman tapped her cane, accentuated her tone, and asked Jace, "You said you wanted to ask everyone's opinions, then, as your family, did you ask my opinions beforehand?"
