Chapter 512
The people who didn't want to come didn't come, the people who thought they wouldn't come, and the unexpected people also came, which is a true portrayal of the Zhao family's entry banquet.
"Master Hou, everyone is here, if you miss the welcome, you also hope to forgive your sins" Zhao Tianyu took Zhao Zhaojun and a group of relatives to greet the guests at the door, and the people at different levels in Luoyang City can be regarded as having enough face for Dingjian Pavilion, knowing that it is the old man of Dingjian Pavilion's new pavilion, if it is someone who has nothing to do, they have also given Dingjian Pavilion this face, and Zhao Tianyu is also full of surprise for Lu Shaoyuan's coming.
"Where is it, in the martial arts to discuss the seniority queue, Shaoyuan is just a late-born junior, come to visit Master Zhao is the right thing" Shaoyuan bowed, took out the letter from his bosom and said, "This is the letter that the Marquis Gao entrusted me to hand over to the seniors, tonight the emperor is looking for the Hou Ye to play, unfortunately Ah Pet and Bingluo went to Hebei on official business, I really can't come, please forgive me"
"Since they all have important things to do, although there is a little regret, there is nothing they can do, but since Shaoyuan is here, then please sit down, please" Zhao Tianyu bowed his hand and invited Shaoyuan in.
Shao Yuan returned the salute and strode inside, which was already full of people at the moment, and a large number of people from the rivers and lakes had already filled the entire hall, as if the Hall of Heroes on White Tiger Street had been moved directly to the Zhao Mansion, "You have already recruited people like this when you first arrived?"
Take a closer look, not only the Jianghu rangers of the Hero Building, but also other people from Dingjian Pavilion, Tian Wei and Tian Qingyu are among them, and what is noteworthy is that not only these two people, but even the Tianshui Jiang family and the Chengdu Lin family have already sent people to come, "Dingjian Pavilion seems to attach great importance to this banquet, and actually pulled all the old families of Dingjian Pavilion over."
Noticing Shaoyuan's arrival, Tian Qingyu also took the initiative to come over, "Master Lu, you are here too"
Shaoyuan also returned the salute, "Tian Daxia, don't come unharmed"
Tian Qingyu saw that Shaoyuan was only one person, and asked, "Master Hou, are you just coming alone?" I heard that General Gao is Uncle Zhao's son-in-law, did he come too?"
Shaoyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's a pity, it's really not, Ah Pet has already left Luoyang to perform official duties at this time"
A shocked expression appeared on Tian Qingyu's face, "General Gao left?
Shaoyuan nodded, remembering that Gao Zhong didn't let him reveal his whereabouts at will, so he casually found a topic and diverted it, "Tian Daxia, who are you here today?"
When Tian Qingyu heard this, he seemed to frown unhappily, "Yes, Uncle Zhao has been wooing these rangers like this since he came, and it seems that he also wants to do something big",
"Then how many princes and ministers are coming?" Shao Yuan looked around, but he couldn't identify too many ministers.
"This is even more interesting, the higher the position, the lower the person in the house, and the more inconspicuous the position, the more you come, you see the squire of the ministers, but they come in person," Tian Qingyu said.
"It seems that it is also to avoid suspicion," Shaoyuan sighed, "And the rivers and lakes also have rules of the rivers and lakes."
"Then where are you going to sit, Master Hou? If you don't give up, why don't you sit with us?" Tian Qingyu invited Shaoyuan to sit down.
When Shaoyuan walked over, he saw several old acquaintances at a glance, namely the Jiang family and the Lin family, and when the two saw the great benefactor Shaoyuan, they got up and arched their hands, "I've seen Master Hou, don't come to be harmed, Master Hou"
Shaoyuan returned the salute, "Hello everyone, are the two heads of the family doing well?"
"Torei, business is thriving at home"
Shaoyuan also bowed to Tian Wei, a true old-timer, "Pavilion master, I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know if that kid is still naughty?"
Tian Wei also laughed, "It's really a farewell over the years, it's been so long before I know it, fortunately, I'm in Yecheng right now, the former boy is already a hero at the moment, and he is ranked as the Hou Ye." ”
Shao Yuan counted: "Pavilion master, did the Zhang family in the Central Plains not receive the invitation? Why is the old man of the big pavilion missing the Zhang family?"
Tian Wei frowned and said, "Since the last time the Zhang family was rescued by the six doors, the Zhang family has always maintained a relationship with us, this is already an open secret, and I don't need to hide it from the Hou Ye, so this kind of gathering, the Zhang family naturally can't come if they don't come."
Shaoyuan suddenly realized, "I see, that's no wonder"
As time went by, the voices became more and more boiling, and Zhao Tianyu also returned to the main seat and raised his glass, "Today is the day when Zhao moved to Luoyang, thank you for not being too cold and ugly, Zhao first drink a glass as a respect, you guys!"
Everyone raised their glasses in greeting, and the dinner officially began.
The Zhao family is worthy of being a wealthy family from the land of fish and rice in the south, and all the food eaten during the banquet is fresh river fresh from the south of the Yangtze River day and night, which is a new experience for the Jianghu rangers who are used to eating cooked food in Luoyang. Eating and eating, a song and dance rose on the stage in the middle of the banquet, and it was a Jiangnan dance with strong characteristics, Shaoyuan could see it at a glance, after all, his eldest lady also danced very well. But this style made Shaoyuan feel uncomfortable for no other reason, it was because a newcomer was still so indulgent in pleasure when he was a little nervous in Luoyang City, and he was obviously offending these people who worked hard for the safety of Luoyang!
As if sensing Shaoyuan's unhappiness, Tian Qingyu asked in a low voice, "Master Hou, do you feel any discomfort?"
Shaoyuan asked, "When you come out of Luoyang, you can do such extravagance? How is this a model of a martial arts family, and how can this be an example of the rivers and lakes?"
Tian Qingyu was also speechless, Shaoyuan was right, but he couldn't refute it himself, after all, this is the freedom of the Zhao family, and they naturally have no right to accuse. And this kind of extravagance, in fact, is extremely enjoyable for the Jianghu rangers, because they are all licking blood on the knife to live, unwilling to be ordinary, only in this way, after earning the bounty, go back to Baihu Street to eat, drink good wine, eat the best meat, and two dimes to sleep with a girl, one day there is no money, go to the ring to stand, or die or live, just want to be happy. So this kind of feasting life is exactly what they want, and as a result, the goodwill of these people in the rivers and lakes towards the Zhao family has also soared.
Tian Wei also silently recited in his heart, "This Zhao Tianyu, although his martial arts are not very good, his wrist is first-class, in a few words, a few hundred taels of silver will get this reputation that seems to be echoed, boy, you are doing everything possible to join the Dingjian Pavilion, what is the picture?"
Looking at the picture of the heroes raising their glasses below, Zhao Tianyu couldn't help but start to think about it.
