Chapter 225: VIP
Although I haven't seen the specific pomp of the Jin family, even if I just think about it, I know that it is impossible for all the disciples of the Fire Sect to be invited.
Chu He didn't think that Zeng Die would have any identity in the Lihuo Sect, and when they came here, most of them wanted to use the identity of the Mu family to blend in.
Sure enough, after hearing Chu He's words, Zeng Die's face became slightly gloomy, and even her senior brothers were not very good-looking. They specially rushed to the courtyard of the Mu family a day in advance, just to come with Mu Yingze, hoping to blend in.
Mu Yingze hurriedly patted Zeng Die's shoulder, signaling her not to attract attention at such a time.
If you attract the attention of the Jin family and are turned away, it will be too wrongful.
The two doormen of the Jin family have been guarding the door, they are specially responsible for checking the guest invitations, and they have already noticed the two groups of Chu He and Mu Yingze.
There is not much time left before the official opening of the luncheon, and the two guards saw that they were just chatting by themselves, and they didn't mean to enter the door at all, so they couldn't help but urge a few words, and Mu Yingze responded again and again.
And Zeng Die and the others didn't dare to speak, for fear that their attitude would be bad, so they stopped the other party.
Seeing that they were the first to walk over, and it happened that a few more groups of guests came over, Chu He and the others were not in a hurry, and waited quietly.
Maybe it was Zeng Die and the others who had already made the two guards pay attention, and when they heard that these people did not have invitations, they were prepared to be brought in by Mu Yingze, and their faces sank.
Although the two of them have dealt with a lot of the situation of bringing people in, it is really difficult to bring so many people with an invitation of Mu Yingze's level.
Mu Yingze had been soaking there for a long time, and the two guards had no intention of letting go, so Second Young Master Mu had to go in first by himself and let Zeng Die and the others wait for a while.
The two people guarding the door ignored him and entertained the guests behind them.
Although everyone in the Fire Sect is a monk, these two guards are also not bad, and their cultivation is stable in the early stage of qi refining. Saying that they are janitors, it is better to say that they are the carefully cultivated team of the Jin family, and they only showed off their strength this time.
Zeng Die and the others were just left aside, and they were ordered by Mu Yingze to leave directly, and they were almost treated as monkeys for a while, so they were not embarrassed.
Chu He glanced at them with some amusement, just met Zeng Die's gaze, and didn't care, and said casually to Xu Wanqing beside him: "Is your invitation easy to use......?"
"You can rest assured. The Jin family was very polite and treated me as a VIP. Xu Wanqing couldn't help but smile and shook her head, and glanced at Chu He helplessly.
She wouldn't think that Chu He was really worried about this. With his ability, even if he is really stopped, it is nothing, just show his hand or two, and the Jin family will obediently come out and welcome him in.
Yesterday's visit gave the two of them a general understanding of the high-end armed forces here. There are indeed ZĂ i foundation building monks in the three major sects, but they are all old monsters, and they can't make a move, and the people below are still Qi refining monks in charge.
After all, this is only the most remote area in Yunzhou, and it is not a densely populated area for cultivators, so many monks can be produced because of the geographical advantage.
When the groups of people who had just arrived entered the mansion, and it was about to be Chu He's turn, Mu Yingze finally rushed back sweating profusely, followed by a person who looked like a housekeeper.
can make a dignified cultivator look like this, you can imagine Mu Yingze's eagerness.
As soon as the person who followed Mu Yingze came over, the two guards hurriedly saluted, but the man politely replied, and then persuaded a few words of kindness and let Mu Yingze's brothers in.
Although the Mu family was only a small family in the mouths of the four last night, it was from the perspective of the sect. If it is the status of connections in this Izumo City, it is still quite good, otherwise the Chu family would not have given orders to them.
Finally it was Chu He's turn to be the two, Xu Wanqing took out the gold-inlaid invitation and handed it over, the two guards were stunned, and then hurriedly took it respectfully, just checked it slightly, and then said in unison: "Miss Xu, please." â
Xu Wanqing nodded lightly, raised her feet and walked in, and Chu He also followed her inside. The two guards seemed to have completely forgotten about the invitation, and let Chu He walk in.
"Wait! Why doesn't he need an invitation to come in?"
At this time, a slightly sharp voice sounded, but it was Zeng Die who watched Chu He enter the door, but she was not checked, but she still remembered the glance when Chu He laughed at them.
Behind Chu He and the others, there were many guests present. Zeng Die shouted like this, and immediately attracted their attention.
Several of her brothers and sisters are also a little eager to try, just now they have been watched as monkeys for a long time, if they can pull a cushion, it seems to be a good choice.
What's more, they didn't think that this nouveau riche who came out of nowhere would have the same connections as the Mu family, so they found a steward to solve the siege. It's definitely a pleasure to keep that nasty guy out.
However, as soon as Zeng Die's words fell, he failed to usher in everyone's response, but the person in charge suddenly changed his face.
"Shut up!"
Zeng Die was startled, and hurriedly looked back at the steward, she didn't dare to offend this thigh at this juncture.
What she didn't expect was that instead of caring about Chu He's invitation, the steward took two steps forward very politely, bowed to Xu Wanqing, and then smiled: "But Miss Wanqing in person?"
Chu He was slightly stunned, a little unsuitable for the title of "Miss Wanqing".
The social background of this world is still the feudal period, and inequality between men and women is the norm. It can only be said that Yunguo is located in the middle of nowhere, and this aspect is not very particular.
A sentence can reflect a person's background, and this is not just talk.
Xu Wanqing had long been accustomed to dealing with people from all walks of life, and her face did not show the slightest displeasure, but just smiled politely: "Exactly." â
"The master has been waiting for a long time, please come in quickly. The steward looked a little frightened, and said in a loud voice. Although the expression on his face is hardly realistic, it does feel good.
Xu Wanqing nodded slightly, stopped talking, and walked into the middle hall with Chu He.
However, a few guests in the back looked suspicious, and some people who were familiar with the steward even walked up and asked, "Steward Zhang, is that young lady ......?"
Steward Zhang smiled and didn't explain much, just whispered: "That young lady came to visit yesterday, I don't know what to talk about, I only know that in the end, the master personally sent her out." â
The man hissed, not daring to ask anything more, just nodded secretly and wrote down the young lady.
Zeng Die swallowed hard, turned his head mechanically, and looked at Mu Yingze who came with them. Mu Yingze smiled bitterly, and couldn't say anything more, just shook her head lightly, signaling her to stop talking nonsense.
After Xu Wanqing's incident, Steward Zhang didn't bother to care about Mu Yingze and them anymore, just casually ordered a few words, and let them go in by themselves.
As several people walked forward, Mu Yingze advised: "That young lady is either from an extraordinary background or extremely powerful, let's not offend people again." â
Several of his senior brothers nodded at the same time, their faces were a little solemn, only Zeng Die muttered without complaints: "It's just that I can't get used to that Chu Hehu fake tiger power, and he is just playing majestic in front of us." â
Mu Yingze couldn't help but smile bitterly again, and said in his heart that the people came together, maybe they were still the relatives or servants of the young lady, where could they be called foxes and fake tigers.
Even the other people did not stand on Zeng Die's side this time, but advised her one after another that they must not conflict with each other again.
"Cowardly and afraid!" Zeng Die snorted angrily, but he could only honestly follow Mu Yingze and walk into the middle hall.
Not to mention that they were secretly discussing here, after Chu He and Xu Wanqing walked into the middle hall, they were taken aback by the formation inside. Rows of square chairs are placed on top of each other, and most of them are already seated, and at a glance, it is called an imposing one.
Chu He is better, at least in some public meetings attended by thousands of people in his previous life, he has already experienced such a formation, but Xu Wanqing has not been pampered since she was a child, and she will never see such a crowded situation, let alone participate in it.
If it weren't for Chu He standing behind her, she almost couldn't help but turn around and leave.
"Don't be nervous, if the Jin family doesn't know Mount Tai and arranges for you in this kind of place, let's go and occupy the front seat, I see who dares to talk more." Chu He took a step forward and whispered in Xu Wanqing's ear.
Xu Wanqing took a deep breath and nodded lightly, but there was a hint of blush on her face.
Suddenly seeing the scene in the middle hall, she did lose her mind for a moment, and Chu He's domineering tone as always sounded particularly pleasant to her.
And in order to avoid being heard by others, Chu He deliberately leaned into her ear to speak, and a stream of hot air blew onto her earlobe, which couldn't help but make her tickle, but she was embarrassed to reach out and scratch it.
Except for Chu Yanlan's time, as Xu Wanqing, how could she ever be so close to a man?
"Why don't you leave?" Chu He couldn't help but wonder when he saw Xu Wanqing standing still. The relationship between the two in the Jin family is still dominated by Xu Wanqing, and Chu He is naturally not good at walking in front of Xu Wanqing.
"Hmm......" Xu Wanqing responded, came back to her senses, and barely took two steps forward.
And at this time, a voice came from afar, which relieved Xu Wanqing's encirclement.
"Miss Xu, you are here!" A slightly chubby middle-aged man walked over from afar, and before the person arrived, the voice arrived first, "It's really like not seeing you for a day, Miss Xu, please take a seat!"
