Chapter 120: The feast is over, and the sky is a thunderbolt
"Dead?"
The second master of the Su family stood in front of the corpse of the fourth child, his eyes full of shock.
And when his gaze moved slightly to the right, he saw that the corpse of the third child was a few steps away, and the blood and family affection in his bones finally polished his mind that had been blinded by power.
The eldest brother was sick, the third died, the fourth died, and the four brothers who loved each other suddenly left him alone.
A great sadness enveloped him in an instant, and every past, every laughter, every reunion, dragged his heart an inch into the bottomless abyss.
In his mind, there is no longer half a desire to fight for power, only endless regret and self-deprecation.
It was as if his backbone had been sucked out, and he had lost all his business spirit, and he fell to the ground.
A trace of pain and empathetic sorrow flashed in Su Yanyan's eyes, and he said softly: "Uncle Xun, please go down the second uncle." ”
No matter how repentant or sad he is at this moment, after all, the crime of killing his brother is established in front of everyone, if he becomes a king or loses it, at this moment, it is naturally impossible to just forget it.
And when the third and fourth died one after another, and the second child lost most of their support, Su Yanyan, who should have been the logical heir to the head of the family, naturally no one would be qualified to jump out and make irresponsible remarks.
Her order was quickly executed, and as the second master of the Su family was taken away, Mr. Xun took the opportunity to immediately take someone to sweep the tail, and the Yueyang upstairs returned to quiet.
Only the smell of blood in the air, and the obvious depression and caution in the field, still have the afterglow of the dispute.
"Today, you will be smiling, please take a seat."
After all, Su Yanyan showed outstanding qualities, and immediately adjusted his mood and supported the scene.
With a glass of wine, everyone's hearts also fell back into their stomachs, and the curiosity hidden in their hearts also floated in the wine, and it was difficult to hide.
"Miss, I'm waiting to see this son, majestic and heroic, quite heartbroken, can you introduce it to the old man and you?"
Sure enough, everyone began to be curious about Xia Jingyun's identity.
If Xia Jingyun's identity is revealed at this time, he will definitely be able to arouse everyone's reverie, and in a sense, complete the preliminary binding of Concubine De's family and the Su family.
However, in the end, Xia Jingyun relented, or maybe it was out of the instinct of a high-ranking scumbag, he didn't choose to show his identity at this time.
He took the initiative to smile and arch his hand, "I'm just a nobody who admires the demeanor of the eldest lady."
But he didn't think about it, but Su Yanyan directly interrupted him and said: "His name is Xia Jingyun, he is the righteous brother of Concubine De, and he is the twenty-third year of Chongning. ”
The water on the top floor boiled instantly.
The discussion was instantaneous.
Those who can sit here are not ordinary people, not to mention anything else, this news is well-informed.
Now in the court, the two concubines are competing for favor, fighting for the rear position, and they are the great treasure in the future.
Originally in the absolute inferior concubine Niangniang, taking advantage of the chaos in Surabaya Prefecture, went back to the province, ran an errand, and suppressed the rebellion, and won the praise of the government and the opposition for her behavior.
At the same time, Concubine Shu was imprisoned, and the Lu family was severely damaged.
The balance of power between the two sides suddenly ushered in a sudden change.
Among them, there is a figure that cannot be ignored.
That is the righteous brother that Concubine De Niangniang newly recognized in Surabaya Prefecture: Xia Jingyun.
Especially after he surprised everyone and won the solution of the Yuan in Surabaya Prefecture and initially got the official ticket to the officialdom, this person has been regarded by many people who pay attention to the court situation as a rising star.
Unexpectedly, such a person actually appeared at the Su family's winter solstice banquet.
Moreover, he is so close to the eldest lady of the Su family.
This doesn't mean that between the Su family and Concubine De
Endless reverie churned in everyone's minds.
But there is one exception.
Bai Yunbian turned his head and looked at Xia Jingyun who was sitting behind him, with an obvious angry expression on his face, "What a Surabaya Prefecture Xie Yuan, what a good concubine and a righteous brother, it's this son who is blind!" ”
Xia Jingyun hurriedly said: "Bai Gongzi, listen to my explanation!" ”
Bai Yunbian snorted coldly, it was clearly the action of [You better explain quickly], but he put on an expression of "I don't listen, I don't listen".
"Bai Gongzi, if I am alone, what is there to see, but you see, who will treat me as a single person? I think I'm here with my sister's will, and I'll think about it more. If I reveal my identity as soon as I come up, I'm afraid Bai Gongziling will also stay away from me, right? How can we have so many touching stories, and where does this precious friendship come from! ”
Bai Yunbian's expression was slightly sluggish, and he pursed his lips and said: "No matter how well decorated the deception, it is a deception after all." ”
"Bai Gongzi, you need to understand my distress! We also said that we would go together to save Master Su! ”
Bai Yunbian was stunned for a moment, "When did you say yes?" ”
"Huh?" Xia Jingyun was also stunned, "I thought that Bai Gongzi, like me, would be grateful for Master Su's guidance, and would run for him and get out of trouble, could it be that I was self-inflicted?" ”
The corners of Bai Yunbian's mouth twitched, "What this son means is that this kind of thing can be the same heart, so why do you need to be cowardly." ”
"Bai Gongzi Gaoyi!" Xia Jingyun smiled and said, "Then this little thing, Bai Gongzi, who wants to come to the great power, won't mind, right?" ”
"Humph!" Bai Yunbian, who was very satisfied with the praise of Daqi, snorted arrogantly and said no more.
On the other side, Su Yanyan let everyone talk a little bit, and then said: "Xia Gongzi is at the right time, and he is wise enough to resolve the crisis for my Su family, such a friendship, my Su family will remember, and I will definitely have a good reward in the future." ”
With Su Yanyan's intelligence, it is naturally impossible not to think of what Xia Jingyun is involved behind him.
But she still said it without hesitation, and made a clear statement, there was no taboo, no euphemism, just a clear gratitude and frank sincerity.
These actions and words naturally warmed Xia Jingyun's heart.
And immediately, Su Yanyan naturally changed the topic, "Today's matter, my Su family will find out the reason, the Su family will definitely return to tranquility, and the exchanges and cooperation between you and the Su family will also be stable and long-term." ”
She raised her glass, "Everyone, drink this glass together, let us wish everyone here a better tomorrow." ”
Everyone agreed and toasted.
Then he entered the normal rhythm of the winter solstice banquet, although Su Yanyan had no experience in hosting the winter solstice banquet, but he also participated in it with his father, knew the process, and settled everything in an orderly manner.
And with a glass of wine in their stomachs, everyone also dispelled the haze of the previous turmoil and began to enter the normal rhythm of a wine banquet exchange.
Many people got up to toast, and in the entire venue, except for Su Yanyan, the most sought after person was naturally Xia Jingyun.
It doesn't matter if you want to bet or not, but having a drink, getting a good relationship, and leaving a mouth is also something that many people are willing to do.
Xia Jingyun is very good, and when others come to toast, he will take the initiative to introduce Bai Gongzi.
The other party will basically exaggerate and say, "Oops! Bai Gongzi, I have admired my name for a long time! ”
Bai Yunbian nodded arrogantly, waited for a while, didn't see the other party move, and when he turned his head, he had already touched the cup with Xia Jingyun.
(* ̄︿ ̄)
A winter solstice feast, just like that, begins with anxiety, develops with turmoil, and ends with joy.
When the situation is settled, the Su family seems to have a backbone, and everyone has properly arranged all the guests according to the mature pick-up, cough, and hospitality procedures.
Su Yanyan personally accompanied Xia Jingyun back to the small courtyard where they were temporarily staying in the Su family.
"Young Master Xia, you might as well spend two more days, wait for me to make a little arrangement for everything, and then set up a private banquet to thank Gongzi."
Xia Jingyun nodded, without twisting, "Okay." I heard that the Su family has a lot of books, I wonder if I can take a look? ”
Su Yanyan naturally did not refuse, and instructed the maid to find someone to arrange.
As he was talking, a big house steward hurriedly came over, "Miss, I can be regarded as finding you." ”
"What?"
"Head of the house. The head of the house, he. Wake up! ”
"Really?" Su Yanyan's face changed, and his face was full of surprise.
And Xia Jingyun, who was originally relaxed and leisurely, changed color, and the cold sweat on his back came down, flashing a cold and biting chill.
