1046 Chapter 1046 Chapter 1048 Unexpected Guests at the Wedding Banquet(2/2)
"I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see the young master here. I'm really lucky to have the three lives to see him."
Pei Yuanxiu smiled and said, "Good luck to the same."
I looked at him, looked at the smiling "Young Master Lin" again, and suddenly reacted - Lin's family in Yunzhong.
These people cannot be said to be powerful, but they are all domineering in their respective territory, and I am not unfamiliar with them - in Pei Yuanxiu's study, their names are written on those documents, but I didn't expect that I would see my true body one by one here.
These are all the powerful and powerful gentry mentioned by Wei Ningyuan, and the group of people who were the most affected in Pei Yuanhao's new policy.
Looking at Yuan Mingde, Gongsun Qi, and the Yunzhong Lin clan in front of me, I couldn't help but remember the two assassinations that Pei Yuanhao had encountered in Yangzhou. Especially the second time, it was both Miaoyan and I who experienced it personally, and even caused me to be injured.
It is very likely that the mastermind behind the scenes is one of them.
Or, they join forces.
Pei Yuanhao actually invited them to Pei Yuanzhen's wedding, and they were all present. It seems that this wedding banquet will not be that simple or so eye-catching.
While thinking about this, I subconsciously looked around a few more times and saw a very eye-catching person.
It was also near the hall, opposite Yuan Mingde, a strong man's figure came into my eyes.
This man is very tall, much taller than almost everyone in the hall. With his broad shoulders and thick shoulders, he looks particularly eye-catching. He is about fifty or sixty years old, with a square face with round face, a wide flesh on his face and a pair of eyes with too much white eyes, and his expression looks very arrogant. He has dark skin and a strong figure, giving people a great sense of oppression. He is wearing a long robe with gold and silver, and his ten fingers are almost covered with huge rings inlaid with various gems. He looks particularly luxurious, but it is very inconsistent with his simple and almost reckless temperament.
Pei Yuanxiu glanced at him and his eyes became complicated.
I asked softly, "Who is that person?"
Before Pei Yuanxiu could speak, the young master Lin standing in front of us had already smiled and said, "Madam, I'm afraid she doesn't know her. She is from the Ao family in Bohai. Judging from his age, he should be the third generation Ao Ping."
Bohai, Ao?
When I heard this place and this surname, my heart couldn't help but feel a slap in my heart.
That is the closest to the grassland and adjacent to Shengjing. The Ao family is a force in the Central Plains dynasty and the grassland tribe. Although the Bohai region was also included in the territory of the Celestial Empire after the royal family headed south to occupy the Central Plains, due to its special geographical location, although the Ao family has always had relatively independent regional jurisdiction. Although they did not become kings like the Han family, in the minds of everyone in the local area, Ao family is the uncrowned "Bohai King".
Moreover, his jurisdiction includes most of the maritime territory, which can lead directly to the East China Sea.
Pei Yuanhao was able to appear on the sea so quickly last time, and Route 6 would not be so fast. It is very likely that he would take a boat directly from the Bohai Sea and all the way to the East China Sea and Zhoushan.
Of course, ships from the East China Sea can also reach the Bohai Sea directly...
Thinking of this, I subconsciously glanced at Ao Ping more.
At this moment, the red shadow before walked into the cabin again. When the people in the hall saw him, they were all excited, and their eyes and expressions were different. The young master Lin in front of us was talking to Pei Yuanxiu before, as if he was very intimate, but when he saw him coming in, he immediately said to us "lost companion" and walked back to where he had stood before.
This person is a very good grass, and he knows the direction of the wind.
However, it doesn't matter even if he doesn't avoid it, because the groom who is about to become the prince-consort did not look at us at all. Instead, after a few maids who walked in through the side door whispered to him, he kept explaining something in a low voice. He said as he walked forward. The last sentence I heard was - "Also, remember to tell the princess that her second brother had arrived."
The maids took the order and immediately turned around and ran back quickly.
At this time, he raised his head and looked at us.
Everyone in the hall looked at him.
He dusted his sleeves, then smiled and raised his hand, bowed and bowed: "Everyone, I'm neglected."
Everyone laughed and said, "Why did the groom say this?"
"The groom is overjoyed."
...
Some of the people who came had their own thoughts, of course, the most thought was to come and curry favor. Pei Yuanzhen received the title of Princess Anguo and was founded in Yangzhou. This has definitely spread to everyone here. Liu Qinghan has always been Pei Yuanhao's favorite minister. It is unimaginable how much role such a couple can play in the court in the future and even form a great force.
After a while, another maid came up to serve us refreshments. I asked a few questions and found out that the side doors on both sides of the front of the hall could lead to the inner courtyard, with gardens and various wing rooms behind it. Even the bridal chambers of the princess and the princess were set up in the inner courtyard. Now, the princess is dressing up in the wing room - in short, all the mansions should have, and there are all available here.
It seems that Pei Yuanhao has indeed put some effort into this sister's wedding.
At this moment, I heard the celebrating outside shouting: "A guest is here!"
