Autumn is getting stronger, the weather is getting cooler and cooler, but the Gongsun Mansion located in Ronghuafang is getting more and more lively. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As Guo Hanxuan, the great treasurer of the Duobao Pavilion, was the first to defect to the young master, the alliance camp of the major stewards, which was not close in the first place, collapsed in an instant, and many wall grasses fell towards Xu Beiyou with this strong wind, making Xu Beiyou's growing momentum even more prosperous after killing Chi Bing.

The Sword Sect is a small court with strict laws, the sword master and swordsman of the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall are military generals, and the stewards who belong to the Sword Pavilion are Wenchen, after the death of Gongsun Zhongmou, the old master, the Empress Dowager Zhang Xueyao holds the power alone, and Xu Beiyou, the new lord, can finally govern with the acquiescence of the Queen Mother.

Today, Xu Beiyou held a banquet in Gongsun Mansion to formally entertain the stewards who had been closed by him before, and for a while, the front of Gongsun Mansion could be called full of people coming and going, and there was a lot of traffic.

For this belated dinner, all the stewards who are qualified to attend are all bright and beautiful.

These stewards don't dare to say that they are all worth millions, but the least is more than 100,000 taels, and they don't dare to say what kind of big people are in Jiang Ducheng, but they are all characters who can stomp their feet and shake three shocks in their respective industries.

The maids in the house shuttle like a cloud, at this time the lobby of the Gongsun Mansion is already brilliantly lit, a total of sixteen candlesticks are placed in the corners of the surrounding corners, and on each candlestick are three big red candles with the thickness of the baby's wrist, a total of forty-eight red candles are brilliant, showing the style of the family's wealthy lords.

What is Zhong Ming Ding Food?

Strike the bell and eat.

Although there was no music to entertain this time, he also imitated the ancient method of eating at separate tables, one person per table, a pot of wine, a tender leg of mutton, and forty-eight tables, and there were forty-eight shopkeepers in Jiangdu City.

The new owner of the young mansion is in the main position, on the left hand side is the upstart Zhang An, who "rides the dragon", and on the right hand side is Guo Hanxuan, who "knows the times as a handsome man".

Today's Zhang An is no longer dressed as a female crown, and has changed into a blue and white skirt tonight, which looks dignified and elegant against the backdrop of the brilliant candlelight, and is bright and moving.

The eyes of everyone present looking at Zhang An were quite complicated, Zhang An was born in the Zhang family of Weiguo, and she was Zhang Xueyao's cousin and niece, a veritable lady, after entering the Sword Sect, Zhang Xueyao took care of her, she should have been in a high position, but for some reason, she has been living a semi-secluded life over the years, until this young master was born, she took advantage of the situation, and gradually had the status of the new master's chief steward.

But it's not good to make a conclusion now, after all, Zhang An is still surnamed Zhang, maybe he got the orders of the acting sect master.

The wine was half-drunk, and the atmosphere in the room was much more casual, Xu Beiyou whispered to Zhang An beside him from time to time, which fell in the eyes of many caring people, and there were many dirty meanings in his eyes, after all, if a man is not married and a woman is not married, if there is something, it is understandable.

Although Zhang An's age is enough to be Xu Beiyou's aunt, she can't stand her beauty, and now she is still like a young woman, older men like young women, and young men don't like this kind of mature women.

Xu Beiyou is naturally aware of these playful eyes, but he doesn't care, majesty is not forged in a day, and power is not something that can be caught in a day, what kind of person he Xu Beiyou is, he will know after a long time.

When the red candle is burned to a third of the position, the wine is finished, the leg of lamb is exhausted, and the banquet is at an end.

Xu Beiyou slowly got up and left the table with a wine glass, walked to the center of the lobby step by step, and said slowly: "Thanks to all of you, today's dinner is very enjoyable, Xu Mou respects you a glass." ”

Forty-eight people got up together, raised their glasses with both hands and said, "To the young master." ”

Xu Beiyou raised his glass with both hands and drank it all, and then turned the bottom of the cup down to show that the wine was dry.

The rest did the same, and then held their breath for the main event of the night.

After Xu Beiyou finished drinking, he lightly smashed a thunderbolt in the field, "Everyone in the world knows that Jiangdu and even Jiangnan, there are three Lafayettes, who are the acting sect master of my Sword Sect, the sect leader of Qin and the sect leader of Tang, but those two Lafayettes cannot personally take charge of their own property, but entrust them to Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Tang respectively, and now the current sect master has the intention of emulating those two Lafayettes, so he handed over this sword pavilion to Xu." ”

"Beiyou is not talented, and he didn't dare to take on such a big task rashly, so he recommended Senior Sister Zhang, who was old and respectful, to the acting sect master, and the acting sect master had no objection to this, so from today on, Senior Sister Zhang will be in charge of the affairs of the Sword Pavilion. ”

After Zhang An got up, he folded his hands around and said with a smile: "Zhang An has just arrived, and I hope you will take care of me." ”

Guo Hanxuan had already prepared for this, and when others were still calming down, he was already solemnly saluting, and said in a deep voice: "My subordinates have seen the chief manager. ”

Now that there is the leader of the big treasurer of the Duobao Pavilion, the rest of the people have to bow down together, "Meet the chief manager." ”

The chief steward is also the chief steward of the Sword Pavilion, and he is in charge of many stewards under the name of the Sword Pavilion, after the re-establishment of the Sword Sect, it is not as big as it was at the beginning, there are only three parts of the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, the Sword Pavilion, and the Shen Penal Division, Gongsun Zhongmou, Zhang Xueyao, and Shangguan Qinghong are each in charge of one, so the positions of the Chief Steward of the Sword Pavilion and the Master of the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall are all vacant.

Now that Zhang Xueyao and Shangguan Qinghong have handed over power is a foregone conclusion, Xu Beiyou naturally can't be in charge of it in person as before, and decentralization has become an inevitable trend, so he decided that Song Guanguan will be in charge of the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, and this part of the Sword Pavilion will be handed over to Zhang An.

The guests of honor at a dinner party dispersed happily, and the stewards left one after another, Zhang An, the new head of the Sword Pavilion, personally saw off the guests, and Xu Beiyou went to the back house with Guo Hanxuan.

The two walked on the path paved with soft stones, Guo Hanxuan was no longer as clever as before, half a position behind Xu Beiyou, and a little more respectful.

Xu Beiyou said with a smile: "During this time, there is Lao Guo's shopkeeper, if there is no Guo shopkeeper, Xu doesn't know how much effort it will take." ”

Guo Hanxuan bowed slightly and said softly: "My subordinates are panicked." ”

Xu Beiyou waved his hand and said: "Now you and I are also our own people in the same boat, why bother to say these lies, you can be honest with each other." I, Xu Beiyou, am not a good person who doesn't rub sand with his eyes, nor am I a wicked person who kills people if he doesn't agree with each other, I just want a layman who wants to soar, and they all say that their brothers settle accounts, as long as the shopkeeper Guo does his best, I Xu Beiyou will not give less. ”

Guo Hanxuan's waist bent a little more, and he said in a deep voice: "My subordinates will do their best to assist the young master." ”

Xu Beiyou smiled and was noncommittal.

Affection and loyalty, these two things, without the precipitation of the years, without the experience of sharing life and death with hardships, are absolutely difficult to cultivate. Xu Beiyou has never believed in the drama of bowing his head, rather than believing that a few words can make people loyal, it is better to believe in the allegiance bought with real money or the allegiance that is simply scared by killing people with a sword.

Guo Hanxuan can still have some confidence in his own territory in Duobao Pavilion, but now that he has come to Xu Beiyou's territory, he is only left to be respectful, seeing that Xu Beiyou did not speak, he did not dare to speak rashly, and the two fell into silence for a while.

The two continued to walk slowly along the soft stone path until they came to the end of the road, Xu Beiyou looked at a low attic in front of him, and said softly: "Now that the dust has settled, but the details still have to be carved, although Senior Sister Zhang is the niece of the master's mother, it may not be able to convince the stewards below. ”

Guo Hanxuan hurriedly said: "Don't dare to call it hard." ”

At this moment, Zhang An, who had finished sending off the guests, rushed here, and Guo Hanxuan took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.

Xu Beiyou sighed and said, "Senior Sister Zhang, I brought you from Jingjing to Vanity Fair, and I don't know if it's right or wrong." ”

Zhang An said with a smile: "In the past, Zhang Anxin was like a dead tree, but now when he comes out for a walk and does something, his mood has opened up a lot." ”

Xu Beiyou turned around and said solemnly: "Then there is Senior Sister Lao Zhang." ”

Zhang An didn't give in, but said softly: "Anyway, Zhang An is also a member of the Sword Sect, if the young master can really revitalize the Sword Sect, what does it matter if Zhang An takes this life?"
