May 14, it is advisable to marry, pray for blessings, and sacrifice.

In the city of Hengyang, the core of today's prosperity, is in the north.

The cars and horses all went north to celebrate the 50th birthday of the old lady of the Zheng family.

The entire Zheng family was decorated with festivities, and the whole family got up early in the morning, and the faces of the old and young were filled with heartfelt joy.

The only people who knew about it buried their worries deep in their hearts.

In the morning, everyone in the family congratulated the old lady one by one and gave gifts.

The old man Zheng Qin accepted it with a smile, and took out the various rewards that had been prepared from the tray in the hands of the housekeeper next to him.

Full of joy.

Soon it was the turn of the two siblings, Zheng Xichao and Zheng Nianxi.

Zheng Xichao was wearing a set of jujube red clothes, respectfully saluting his grandfather and congratulating him, and when he got up, Zheng Qin took out a bag and handed it out, touched his head with a smile on his face, and said softly: "It's okay, relax." ”

Before Zheng Xichao could reply, Zheng Nianxi had already jumped up, his eyes narrowed into crescent moons with a smile, and he shouted sweetly: "Grandpa's longevity is better than Nanshan, and his blessing is like the East China Sea." ”

Zheng Qin was about to speak, but Zheng Tao, who was waiting on the side, grabbed her and scolded her in a low voice: "Why are you still wearing green clothes, hurry back and change." ”

Zheng Qin waved his hand gently, "It's okay, the green is good, the green looks fresh and young." ”

Holding the hand of Zheng Nianxi, who was slightly aggrieved, he took out another small bag from the side, "Come, Nianxi girl, for you." ”

Zheng Nianxi was about to open it, Zheng Qin gently pressed her hand, "Look back." ”

The girl in green smiled, turned to leave, and did not forget to grimace at her own father before leaving, and snorted coldly.

made Zheng Tao simply angry and laughed.

Time moved forward unswervingly, and in the expectation of many people in the Zheng family, and the apprehension of a small number of people, it was approaching noon.

Large and small carriages crowded the wide street in front of Zheng's house, Zheng Tao greeted guests at the door, Zheng Qin stood in front of the main hall and thanked him, and the congratulatory gifts were accepted and classified by his own steward.

When the guests from all sides were almost there, everyone began to wait for several fixed protagonists of the major events in Hengyang City over the years to appear.

As usual, the Tian family's carriage was the first to arrive, but the people who stepped down from the carriage left others confused.

A young man in red, who looked to be less than twenty years old, led a beautiful and moving woman, and walked into the gate of the Zheng family abruptly.

Tian Huan, the head of the Tian family, hurriedly jumped out of a carriage behind him, and followed closely with his own worship Shi Chengshan.

What's even more surprising is that the two Zheng family didn't seem surprised by this, and Zheng Tao directly led a few people to the front of the main hall.

Everyone craned their necks and looked at the man and woman who didn't seem to be so coordinated in front of them, and the voices of discussion were buzzing.

"Isn't this young man a tyrant? How can you let Master Tian serve like this. ”

"Not to mention anything else, the woman next to the young man is really glamorous, the best in the world. ”

"Be careful to speak, how can we afford to provoke someone like Master Tian. ”

"Why didn't she go straight to the backyard, but to this front yard full of men?"

Shi Sheng didn't take any shelf, but took Yu Zhi with him and saluted respectfully, "Congratulations to Old Man Zheng on his birthday." ”

Zheng Qin laughed, "The head of the fire gate is so young and promising, it really makes the old man ashamed, and I hope that in the future, the fire gate will grow stronger and stronger under the leadership of the head of the time!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the hall was silent.

Is it the one that has been in the limelight lately?

The person who stared at Yu Zhi just now looked at it again and again, and commented on it for a few sentences, covered his mouth regretfully, and found that the people next to him seemed to be faintly far away from him.

Shi Sheng smiled and said, "I still need a lot of support from Old Man Zheng." ”

Tian Huan looked at Zheng Qin nervously, waiting for his decision.

Zheng Qin's face remained unchanged, and he gently ordered, "Go and invite the young master and young lady to come over." ”

Not long after, Zheng Xichao and Zheng Nianxi came to Zheng Qin's side.

After listening to Grandpa's introduction, the original apprehension of the two turned into shock in an instant, and they didn't expect that the rumored fierce and vicious Lihuomen, who was doing evil everywhere, was so young.

Zheng Nianxi widened her beautiful eyes even more, a little handsome.

I don't seem to be so resistant to the fire gate in my heart.

Shi Sheng smiled gently at them, then glanced intently, confirmed the cultivation talent of the two, and was about to speak.

Zheng Tao had already led the head of the Li family in.

Zheng Qin looked at Shi Sheng with a smile, "Master Shi, let's talk about it later, how about it?"

Shi Sheng nodded, "Old Man Zheng is busy first." ”

From beginning to end, the two did not mention Yu Zhi, it seemed that such a woman suddenly appeared in the front yard, and they took it for granted, or didn't care.

But Yu Zhi didn't think so, and after sitting down in the seat, he softly twisted Shi Sheng's waist, "I said that I would go to the backyard, I have to let it, now it's okay, people look at me weirdly." ”

Shi Sheng turned his head and looked at her apologetically, "I have wronged you, but today is special, I don't dare to let you leave my side." ”

Yu Zhi didn't know this reason, and he lost a little temper and looked at the guests behind him with a smile again.

So she directly saw the Tsing Yi robe.

Qi Ziyi found this gaze, and when he saw Yu Zhi, he nodded slightly, and he didn't seem surprised.

Shi Sheng snorted coldly, looked back, and the two eyes collided silently in the air, and there were no waves.

Li Ji and Qi Ziyi also sat down, Tian Huan naturally went up to talk, and the rest of the people looked at their noses and noses, and were silent.

The people in the front yard came alive again after the sudden shock of leaving the fire gate just now.

When he saw Qi Ziyi, he was glad that his wife and daughter were not there, otherwise it would be noisy again.

After the Li family sat down, all eyes looked out the door, waiting for the Yuan family, who had always appeared in the finale.

The two carriages slowly stopped, Yuan Hong and Yuan Ming jumped from the first carriage, and in the second carriage, they did not walk out of the Yuan family, but walked out of the Yuan family's second and third offerings, the second offering is a mountain field repair, called Wu Shilang, and the third offering is Yunluo's acquaintance, Mr. Xu, Xu Cheng, is also a mountain field cultivator.

Zheng Tao, who was standing at the door, secretly felt a sigh in his heart, which was not a good sign.

But he could only pretend to be calm, and after greeting him, he led Yuan Hong and the three of them to the main hall.

Some people did not obey the arrangement to go back to the backyard, but hid in a corner and watched this side, and when they saw Mr. Xu, one of them was indignant, "I'm actually embarrassed to come!"

It is Zheng Xichao and Zheng Nianxi brother and sister.

Zheng Xichao didn't answer, his brows furrowed, of course he didn't know that Yuan Hong didn't bring his family members, just looking at him alone with three worshippers, he understood, this time it was really a bad guest, and there was no good banquet.

Zheng Xichao can perceive things, how can a few people on the main table not perceive it, Tian Huan and Li Ji glanced at each other, Li Ji's expression was flat, but Tian Huan had an irrepressible excitement, and the Yuan family took the bait.

Qi Ziyi's face was unwavering, and Shi Sheng and Yu Zhi pretended not to see it.

Zheng Qin sighed secretly in his heart, pretending not to check.

Yuan Hong didn't make any moves, as usual, he greeted Zheng Qin with a big grin, said a few polite words, and was ushered into the seat.

Now, only the last guest remains, and as on most occasions in the past, this nominal last is dispensable.

Hengyang County Ling Yu Anshi walked to the door of Zheng's house, looked at Zheng Tao, who had been waiting at the door, and smiled.

When he greeted Zheng Qin and presented a non-precious inkstone, he walked to his own guest of honor.

He looked at Yuan Hong, who was sitting next to him, and said calmly, "Yuan Xiancheng, when did the county lieutenant become your retainer, and the soldiers and horses in the city became your private soldiers?"

Yuan Hong really wanted to reply to him, hasn't it always been?

In the end, he changed his words, "Where did the county magistrate start with this? Maybe it was the county lieutenant Yan who felt uneasy in the city and led his troops to defend the big families." Isn't it the duty of the army to eliminate violence and protect the side?"

Yuan Hong's voice was undisguised, and it was clearly heard on the entire main table.

Yu Anshi's expression froze, and he sneered and was silent.

Tian Huan and Li Ji looked at each other silently again, Yuan Hong's move is not high, mobilizing the army to protect it, the family vendetta fighting and the impact killing the army are two different things.

The back house is worry-free, and here it brings the suppression of the masters, this game, Yuan Hongbu is not wonderful.

Zheng Qin stood in front of the door of the main hall, facing the courtyard, picked up the wine glass from the tray held by the steward next to him, and said aloud to everyone in the courtyard: "Thank you for your love, come to congratulate you, Zheng is very honored, prepare a little wine, thank you!"

Tilt your neck and pour a glass of wine down your throat to reveal the bottom of the glass.

The people in the courtyard have already stood up, all drank the wine in the cup, and the feast began!

Zheng Qin returned to the main hall, sat down in his seat, and after a few greetings, the show began!

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors, as usual.

When Yuan Hong coughed lightly, all the eyes on the main table converged on him.

I saw him sigh, "Uncle Shi, a few days ago, there was news from the elders of this family that he wanted to take in an apprentice, I think your two grandchildren are very good, why don't you give them this opportunity?" ”

All kinds of expressions suddenly appeared on everyone's different faces, and among them, the most was shock.

Then many eyes were cast on Shi Sheng, who was eating food silently, and the young head of the Fire Gate.

Zheng Qin sneered in his heart, the elder of his family, which elder?

Zheng Xichao, who was quietly hiding on the side, held his sister's hand and said softly, "Don't be afraid. ”

He instantly understood why his grandfather had so readily let himself and his sister come out to meet the head of the Fire Gate.

Zheng Nianxi nodded, looking at the red clothes, he should be able to stop it.

Shi Sheng was burying his head in eating, when he suddenly noticed the silence around him, and raised his head in amazement.

Zheng Qin didn't speak, and it was not appropriate to say anything at this moment.

Yuan Hong spoke, "I don't know if the head of the family is willing to cut love?"

Many people at the table had all kinds of thoughts flashing in their hearts, how would they deal with the recent arrogance and unscrupulous fire gate?

Tian Huan's desire to dedicate these two brothers and sisters to Lihuomen is no secret in this circle.

Tian Huan was so anxious that he secretly jumped to his feet, how could this Yuan Hong start with the Zheng family brothers and sisters and provoke the fire gate, isn't this self-destruction of the Great Wall?

He was wrong, when Yuan Hong knew that Lihuomen was coming to Hengyang and arrived at the Zheng family, he decided to do so, he had to determine Lihuomen's attitude, if Lihuomen couldn't control it, or didn't cooperate, or even stood on the side of the Zheng family, then this time the matter had to be completely different.

For him, even if he helped the Zheng family destroy the Tian family and the Li family, it was okay, as long as the Zheng family was willing to temporarily hand over Hengyang City to him to rule, and resisted this turmoil.

On this premise, everything is negotiable.

Shi Sheng looked at Yuan Hong, who had a serious expression, and suddenly smiled, "Hunan Yuan family, but the best place in our realm, if it is really as the Yuan family master said, I, Shi Sheng, have nothing that I can't love." ”

He actually flinched!

Retreat from the fire gate!

Several suppressed exclamations rang out on the table.

Zheng Xi didn't hold back, Zheng Nianxi rushed out and shouted at Shi Sheng: "You are a liar!

attracted the unknown guests in the courtyard outside to stretch their necks and look inside, and the steward of the Zheng Mansion hurriedly went to reassure them, it's okay, it's okay.

Zheng Tao hurriedly got up and escorted the two to the backyard and ordered someone to guard them strictly.

Zheng Qin also hurriedly apologized.

The confused Shi Sheng waved his hand, and Yu Zhi leaned into his ear and said, "Peach blossom debt provoked for no reason." ”

Only then did Shi Sheng understand and smiled.

Yuan Hong didn't care about this, he was sure of his heart, he looked at Zheng Qin's uncertain face, "Uncle Shi, let's invite the two little geniuses out again?"

---------------------------------------

In the hustle and bustle of Beicheng, a middle-aged man in an old white robe walked silently towards Xicheng.

His steps were slow, as slow as a lonely river flowing outside the city;

His steps are also very steady, as steady as the top of Hengshan Mountain outside the north gate.
