The middle-aged steward glanced at Li Qingxuan hatefully, Li Qingxuan's eyes immediately cold, and the middle-aged steward was so frightened that he took two steps back, bowing his head and not daring to look at him. Li Qingxuan boarded the carriage without hurry and sat down in the carriage. The middle-aged steward wanted to follow him into the carriage, but he was a little afraid of Li Qingxuan, so he finally followed behind the carriage.

If an ordinary family can raise a mule or a donkey, the family is considered to be good. As for the carriage, it can only be watched, how can there be the blessing of riding in the car? Li Qingxuan looked left and right, there were no furnishings in the carriage, and it was relatively simple. When Wang Yuan asked him for treatment, the carriage didn't have much furnishings, but it was inevitably a little quaint, but this one was a little worse.

"Although the Yu family doesn't know what opportunities they have, they can be called soaring, but they are still more than a step behind Lord Thorn Shi. The carriage drove slowly. Li Qingxuan glanced out the window, and the green trees on both sides of the road hurriedly retreated.

"The birthday should not have started yet, and the banquet will be later. Li Qingxuan closed his eyes slightly, and said in his heart: "The Yu family sent someone to pick me up, it will only be early, it can't be late, maybe I will have to wait after I get to the Yu family, maybe someone will come to give me a dismissal." "There are a lot of troubles, but I'm not a soft persimmon to be manipulated, I want to see what is famous at the banquet!"

Suddenly, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the car, and there seemed to be many people. Li Qingxuan poked his head out, and saw eight or nine people running quickly, all with knives, as if they were Haiyan County Ya's fast catchers. "Along this path, it seems to be heading in the direction of Qionglong Mountain, I wonder what these messengers are going to Qionglong Mountain?" he frowned, and wanted to get out of the car to see, but in a flash of inspiration, he stopped again.

The silver paper and white jade boxes of Jin Dan, Xiao Ding, and Wuzhen Kendo have all been placed on his body, even the big man has put them in his sleeve along with the three hundred taels of silver and the things he sent, and at this time, the valuable things in the bamboo house, except for a few new clothes, are only the more than one hundred taels of silver, and the raspberry grass. If you lose more than 100 taels of silver, it will be a pity.

Li Qingxuan's mind moved slightly, took out the eyebrow inkstone, threw it casually, and said to himself: "This inkstone is the best of the best, if I learn to depict the fire talisman, this inkstone may be able to be used." Well, if there are no accidents, it should still be used as a congratulatory gift. He put the eyebrow inkstone into his bosom and closed his eyes for a long time.

"What's going on? Birthday seems to be early?" "This can't be. Outside the window, there was the sound of the steward and a few family members talking. Li Qingxuan immediately opened his eyes. "I heard that a big man is coming. "Which big man?" "Lord Liu, the overseer of the dynasty" "I heard that he is visiting an old friend, and the friend who oversees the imperial history is among the invitees, so this overseer of the imperial history came with him." ”

"Who is that friend?" The sound of discussion was endless, and Li Qingxuan showed a little surprise. The officials of the Tang Dynasty are divided into nine grades, with one product being the highest and nine being the lowest. Supervise the imperial history, and it is eight products. Although he did not control the monstrous power of a mansion like Lord Assassin, he did not control the military power.

However, supervising the imperial history, supervising the civil and military officials inside and outside the imperial court, patrolling the prefectures and counties, has a wide range of authority, and is quite feared by the civil and military officials. supervising the imperial history is inferior and powerful, and it can be regarded as one of the most powerful figures in the Tang Dynasty. When such characters come, no one dares to slack off. It was because he was here at this time that the banquet was opened. No one dared to make him wait. The early banquet was still full of laughter, and no one showed the slightest displeasure.

As for Li Qingxuan, the future son-in-law of the Yu family, he has not yet arrived at the mansion to congratulate him, but no one remembers him, as if he does not exist. The birthday of the old lady of the Yu family can already be called a grand event in this Suzhou Mansion. If it was two years ago, maybe not many dignitaries and nobles cared about such a famous family at sunset, but now it is different.

The Yu family, a high-ranking family in the West Mountain at sunset, has been comparable to the Zhu family, the Lu family and other century-old families in just two or three years. The most important thing is that this momentum of rise is still not stopping. No one will doubt that in a few years, the Yu family will once again be able to become one of the four great families in Suzhou Mansion. All this is only because of the Miss Yu family who was appreciated by nobles in the capital.

Li Qingxuan didn't know how many reasons there was, but he knew that the place where he caught his eye was extremely grand and unprecedented. The streets have long been cleared of idlers, and the guest carriages are parked on both sides, and there are many caretakers to maintain order, and stewards are leading the way. Despite the bustle, it is still well organized.

Most of the dignitaries, businessmen and wealthy people who are rarely seen on weekdays gather here today. Not only the people of Suzhou, but also the powerful people of other nearby state capitals. At this moment, Yufu is bustling and extremely lively. Today's prominent magnates and famous wealthy businessmen, let alone a hundred, plus those guards and subordinates, this Yu family has gathered hundreds of people. But not everyone is in.

And Li Qingxuan has a marriage contract with the Yu family, and happens to be qualified to drink in the house. However, who knows?" "Li Xiaolangjun, please!" The middle-aged steward made a gesture of invitation beside the carriage. Li Qingxuan got out of the carriage and moved forward. The coachman and the two housekeepers wanted to speak and stopped, but they were finally glared back by the middle-aged steward with a cold look.

"A poor scholar in a white cloth shirt, without an invitation card, vainly trying to enter the house to participate in the banquet, hum, these nursing homes are indispensable for your suffering. Just avenged my severed finger!" The middle-aged steward looked at his back, sneered, and gritted his teeth in his heart. Sure enough, a nursing home stepped forward to stop the weak scholar and shouted, "Who is here?"

Li Qingxuan said with some amusement: "No." The nursing home said coldly: "Since you are not invited by the Yu family, please go back." Li Qingxuan said calmly: "Okay, I'll go back." ”

"God, how is this little scholar obedient this time?" The middle-aged steward's face changed greatly, if Li Qingxuan was allowed to go back, his fate would not be much better, his heart was flustered, and he hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "You bastards, don't you see that this is the future uncle? ”

Today's Yu family can be called a wealthy family and is famous. There are a lot of uninvited people today, but because of the number of courtesies, it is difficult to drive away, so please sit in the outer courtyard. If this weak scholar had changed into a silk robe, these guards might have been allowed to go.

But he was a weak scholar dressed in white, and he didn't look like a dignitary, so he was turned away. But who knew that he was the future uncle? "No, no, I don't have an invitation here, so I won't join in the fun. ”

Li Qingxuan pretended to shirk a few words, and said secretly in his heart: "It's just a few domineering nurses and stewards, I won't go to the banquet to see how you and the others deal with each other!" The middle-aged steward was so frightened that he almost cried, and hurriedly begged, and let people lead the way. Li Qingxuan pretended to be extremely reluctant and walked in with him.

The outer courtyard and patio are almost full of banquets, laughter, pushing glasses and changing lamps, which is very lively. After entering the house, someone naturally led the way, and the middle-aged steward withdrew. "Li Langjun, come here to sit, there is just a shortage of people. Someone recognized Li Qingxuan. Li Qingxuan didn't recognize this person, thinking that it was about an elder who knew his father, nodded to the other party, and sat down at this table.

The man was dressed in a blue brocade robe, forty-three or fourteen years old, and the man smiled and said, "My father and I are old acquaintances, so it's good if you call me Shen Yuanwai." Li Qingxuan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Shen Yuan is good." Shen Yuanwai said with a smile: "Ling Zun was literary and graceful back then, and he was the best in Wu County. Recently, you have become famous in the apricot forest, and even the Yu family has invited you to a banquet, I don't know if Li Langjun has a favorite woman, if not, I can find one or two for Li Langjun. ”

Li Qingxuan said modestly: "The staff has won the award, thank you for your kindness, but there is no need." At this moment, a person hurriedly came out of the inside, and when he saw Li Qingxuan, he was stunned and hurriedly came over here. This is the chief butler of the Yu family, that is, the old butler who went to Qionglong Mountain twice to wait for Li Qingxuan.

Shen Yuanwai was slightly stunned, got up, and said with a smile: "Why is the big housekeeper here, the hall is full of big people, you go and get busy, I should understand." The people at the wine table, as well as the surrounding businessmen and wealthy gentry who heard this, hurriedly agreed.

can get the title of outsider, it is a rich and noble family, if you are treated coldly on weekdays, you will inevitably leave with your sleeves. But this is the Yu family, and the guests in the inner hall are the most prominent and powerful people in Suzhou Prefecture, as well as the big names in the rest of the state capitals. Being able to come to Yu's house for a banquet has proved that he has a high status in Suzhou Mansion, and as for being a guest in the inner room of the hall, he thinks a little too much.

The chief butler confessed to everyone twice, and said: "I am busy for a while, and the old slave has no time to entertain you, so please Haihan." "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Shen Yuanwai waved his hand and smiled: "You go and get busy." The old housekeeper smiled apologetically, and then said to Li Qingxuan: "Why is Lang Jun sitting here, a seat has been prepared for you inside, and he is waiting to start." Shen Yuanwai was slightly stunned, and everyone was quiet.

Li Qingxuan knew it in his heart, he also thought that if the Yu family knew the etiquette, they would prepare a seat for him in the inner hall where the big people gathered, and it was as he expected. He got up immediately and said to Shen Yuanwai: "It seems that the little nephew is about to lose company, please don't blame Shen Yuanwai." Shen Yuanwai was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You go to be busy, you go to be busy." Li Qingxuan followed the old housekeeper inside, and when the two of them walked inside, everyone was in an uproar.
