Chapter 628: The Big Wedding
After solving the matter of Thor, Su Xingxuan was not in a hurry to export the power in the Night Pearl, because before that, he had to go to the Jingshi Palace, to participate in the wedding of Xiaocui and Wang Yuanfeng, and there was also the thousand-year-old snake demon She Ji, if Su Xingxuan was not there, she would naturally stir up a storm, but since Su Xingxuan was here now, he would naturally not let her act recklessly, and he would solve her by the way.
On this day, the whole palace is full of lights, red light everywhere, the door is open and those who come do not refuse, Su Xingxuan hid in the crowd, looking at the gongs and drums, firecrackers, red silk is full of smiles, that Wang Yuanfeng is dressed as a red groom, but there is no stupidity in the past, it looks like a talent, just talking about the skin, it is really rare in the world, but between the eyebrows and eyes, that ignorant look, I am afraid that I don't know what I am doing at all.
Mixed in the crowd, watching Wang Hongzhi greet the guests with a smile on his face, Su Xingxuan was sitting on the table next to him, grabbing two handfuls of melon and fruit snacks from time to time, but he was happy and leisurely, quietly waiting for the wedding to start.
"Come on, come on, the auspicious time has come, all guests, please sit down, worship heaven and earth!"
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the door, "Wait!"
Hearing this voice, Su Xingxuan knew that the troublemaker was coming, but he hurriedly grabbed a handful of melon seeds, sat aside and watched, hearing this voice, Wang Hongzhi and Mrs. Wang glanced at each other, and a trace of displeasure flashed in their eyes, but they quickly suppressed this displeasure, greeted each other with a smile, and walked towards the door.
I saw that outside the door, a middle-aged man with a treacherous face was followed by a few servants, holding a huge box and walking in, and arched his hand towards Wang Hongzhi without smiling, "Wang Taichang, you married your daughter-in-law today, and the official came to congratulate you, but it was delayed for a while on the way, and it was a little late, Wang Taichang won't blame you, right?"
"There, Wang Shangshu has always been busy with official business, and he can still find time to say hello to Xiao'er in this busy schedule, I'm too late to be happy, come on, give Wang Shangshu a seat." Wang Hongzhi said with a standard smile.
"Not busy, not busy!" Hearing this, Wang Shangshu waved his hand and said, "It's better to let the official send the congratulatory gift first, be careful, and ask Wang Taichang not to dislike it, come here, bring the things." As soon as Wang Shangshu waved his hand, the little guy behind him hurriedly walked up with the box in his hand.
Wang Hongzhi looked at Wang Shangshu who was smiling without smiling, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes, but in the end he still smiled, "Lord Shangshu, this is too expensive, come here, what ......else to bring" Wang Hongzhi's words were not finished, and the moment he opened the box, Wang Hongzhi's smile suddenly froze on his face, and his whole face turned cold, and he couldn't maintain that fake smile anymore.
Everyone has never seen Wang Hongzhi look so out of shape, and they all looked towards the box, only to see that in the middle of the box are two fine porcelain statues, which are the two stars of Fu Lu Shou in the three stars, if you want to say three stars of congratulations, it is normal, but if the three stars are only two stars, it is not a congratulations, but a curse.
Among the people present, the highest status is Prime Minister Gao, seeing this gift, Prime Minister Gao's face suddenly sank, looked at Wang Shangshu and said coldly: "Wang Shangshu, what do you mean by this, why do you only give people two stars, are you here to make trouble?"
"Oh, Prime Minister Gao, what you said, but slandered the lower officials?" Wang Shangshu said with an innocent face, but his eyes were full of mockery looking at Wang Hongzhi, "The lower officials know that Wang Taichang's family is marrying today, and they specially found this gift, but there is a reason why there are only two stars, who doesn't know, the son of Wang Taichang's family, that is an out-and-out longevity, and then give the birthday star, isn't it unbearable, Wang Taichang, do you say?"
Hearing this, Wang Hongzhi's face turned red with anger, knowing that Wang Shangshu was sarcastic that his son was a fool, and he had the intention to refute two sentences, but firstly, this was the truth, and Wang Shangshu did not sneer at it openly, he was not good at being angry, and secondly, he was more or less concerned about Wang Shangshu's identity, but he had to endure it.
At this time, there was a chuckle among the guests, "Lord Wang Shangshu is right, isn't this prince of the Wang family a person who lives a long life, it really doesn't matter whether this birthday star is sent or not, but this Fulu two stars came just right, it seems that it won't be long before this prince of the Wang family will increase his blessings, Lord Wang, Lord Shangshu is really good to your Wang family, you should really thank Lord Wang Shangshu for it." ”
In such a quiet occasion, such a chuckle and out-of-tune words instantly attracted everyone's attention, and everyone looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see a young Taoist priest in a Taoist robe, who looked to be in his early twenties, sitting at the table, holding a wine jug in one hand and melon and fruit snacks in the other.
But at this moment, Wang Hongzhi has no time to appreciate this kind of demeanor, seeing this scene, his eyes are red with anger, even if Wang Shangshu is sarcastic, the official level crushes people to death, he has to endure it, but now, a Taoist priest who eats and drinks dares to speak like this, how can Wang Hongzhi endure it.
Not to mention Wang Hongzhi, even Wang Shangshu is a little puzzled, I don't know why the Taoist priest in front of him said this, but I don't know if I don't know, seeing that someone agreed, Wang Shangshu was even more happy, seeing that Wang Hongzhi was about to get angry, he hurriedly said, "This Taoist chief is a Taoist master at a glance, and when he speaks, isn't this what the official thinks? Wang Taichang, you see, even people outside the party say this, you still don't want to thank the official." ”
Seeing Wang Shangshu's sarcasm was not enough, he actually sang and harmonized with that Taoist priest, Wang Hongzhi only felt a bad breath blocked in his chest, he couldn't get out or go down, he was so suffocated that his muscles burst out, and his hands were clenched.
At this time, the young Taoist, that is, Su Xingxuan, chuckled, looked at Wang Shangshu, and said with a meaningful smile, "But Wang Shangshu is indeed a smart person, knowing that his life is not long, and his life is short, but he left the birthday statue to himself, but unfortunately he is only doing useless work!"
