A group of men and women wearing monastic robes came to the main table.
Chu Tianai, who was two places away from Chu Tianshu, suddenly flashed his big eyes: "Wow, he is so handsome. I have never worn such clothes before..."
She tugged on the long sleeves of the Taoist woman next to her and asked, "Auntie, where can I buy clothes like yours?
I want to find one of the same style.”
The middle-aged woman suddenly had black lines all over her forehead.
However, she knew that those who could sit at this table were not ordinary people, so she was not willing to offend him casually, so she patiently replied: "The clothes in the Wenwen Palace cannot be bought anywhere else."
Chu Tianai curled his lips and said, "Then I will go to your Taoist Palace to buy it."
The middle-aged woman's mouth twitched and she said no more.
Chu Tianshu smiled and said: "Ask the old lady to get you a set. The old lady has a good relationship with Taoist Palace."
Upon hearing this, the old lady's cold gaze instantly pierced her.
Chu Tianai stuck out his sweet tongue and did not dare to talk any more.
The leader of the Taoist Palace was a man who looked to be in his forties or fifties.
He has a thin build, thick eyebrows, and a glint in his slightly squinted eyes, giving him a very unreliable feeling.
The man shook his broad sleeves, cupped his hands and bowed: "Liu Yuzhang, the second disciple of the Palace Master, has met the old lady. I wish the old lady to be as blessed as the East China Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."
After speaking, he took a brocade box from the entourage behind him and respectfully held it in front of the old lady: "This is the birthday gift my master asked me to send."
The old lady nodded lightly and said nothing.
Chu Xichao stepped forward to receive the birthday gift and invited with her hand: "Guys, please take a seat here."
He unobtrusively exchanged looks with Liu Yuzhang.
Liu Yuzhang cupped his fists and said, "Old Madam, there is one more thing I would like to ask Old Madam to rule on."
The old lady frowned.
Before the old lady could speak, Chu Xichao said first, "What's the matter?
Taoist priest, please tell me."
Liu Yuzhang looked around: "Which one is Chu Tianshu?"
Chu Tianshu rolled his eyelids, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, ignoring it.
Chu Tianai glanced at Chu Tianshu and said curiously: "Taoist Priest, why are you looking for my brother Tianshu?"
"Are you Chu Tianshu?"
Liu Yuzhang stared at Chu Tianshu with sinister eyes, then clasped his fists and said to the old lady: "Old madam, he seriously injured my disciple Fan Pan, please give me justice."
The old lady spat out one word: "Get out."
Everyone was startled.
Liu Yuzhang's face was even more full of surprise.
He said in shock: "Old madam, this guy seriously injured my disciple..."
As soon as his eyes blurred, the old lady appeared in front of him like a ghost.
Liu Yuzhang's heart suddenly jumped.
Before he could react, the old lady's slap fell on his face.
Snapped!
Liu Yuzhang was knocked to the ground directly.
The old lady said in a deep voice: "He hurt your disciple, just go to him, what kind of justice do you want from me?
Who are you, old man?
Do I have an obligation to stand up for you?"
She looked around the scene with cold eyes: "This is my last warning, if anyone dares to interfere with the birthday banquet again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Seeing the bright red slap marks on Liu Yuzhang's face, Chu Xichao's eyelids jumped wildly.
Chu Tianshu raised the corners of his mouth and gave the old lady a thumbs up: "Suddenly I don't hate you so much."
The old lady snorted coldly: "If you cause trouble for me again, get out of here too."
"Tianshu."
Chu Xidao said in a long tone.
Liu Yuzhang got up from the ground, his eyes seemed to be bursting with fire.
"how?
Not convinced?"
Murderous intent loomed in the old lady's eyes.
"Don't dare."
Liu Yuzhang bowed, lowered his head and said, "Old madam, I'm sorry."
After saying that, he led the people away dejectedly.
After so many twists and turns, the old lady was in a bad mood. She had a gloomy face from the beginning to the end. After the representatives from each family came forward to toast, she excused herself from the meeting and left early because she felt unwell.
The Chu Xidao brothers and sisters personally sent her back to the island in the middle of the lake.
After the old lady left, the atmosphere in the banquet hall suddenly became less oppressive, and everyone was no longer restrained.
Ren Changfeng and others came up to Chu Tianshu to drink.
Seeing this, many people whom Chu Tianshu didn't know also came forward to propose a toast.
Ren Changfeng had a wide acquaintance, and almost everyone who came up to Chu Tianshu for a drink was someone he didn't know, and he immediately introduced them to Chu Tianshu one by one.
Before, Chu Tianshu was too lazy to drink with these irrelevant people.
However, Chu Xidao once again took charge of the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance, and he would have to deal with various forces in the future. Chu Tianshu naturally wanted to consider him, so he did not refuse, and the wine was drunk.
Everyone originally came forward to toast Chu Xidao's power and Chu Tianshu's skill, but seeing Chu Tianshu so cheerful, they couldn't help but have a great impression of Chu Tianshu.
For a time, shouts of "Master Chu, Master Chu" could be heard in the field.
Chu Tianqi didn't know when he appeared in the garden outside again.
Listening to the sounds coming from the banquet hall, his face was so gloomy that it seemed like water would drip from his face.
Chu Xichao came to Chu Tianqi and stood with his hands behind his back.
Chu Tianqi gritted his teeth and said, "Father, are we just going to admit defeat?"
"Admit defeat?"
Chu Xichao narrowed his eyes and said, "When did you see your father admit defeat?"
Chu Tianqi's eyes lit up: "Father has already responded?"
Chu Xichao sneered: "They will soon know that the Chu family and the Guwu Alliance are not something they can take away if they want."
"I knew that my father would never give up just like that."
A smile appeared on Chu Tianqi's face again, and then he asked: "Father, where are the people from the Ascension Palace?
Just leave like this?”
"Palace Master Baili is preparing to elect a successor. Their brothers and sisters are busy fighting for power. How dare you make your grandma unhappy at this juncture?"
Chu Xichao sneered: "Don't you see that your grandma was unhappy just now? Liu Yuzhang didn't even dare to fart."
"Grandma, she..."
Chu Tianqi hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Really... between you and Lord Baili Palace..."
"Asshole!"
Chu Xichao interrupted angrily: "Do you think such words should come out of your mouth?"
Chu Tianqi hurriedly said: "Father, I was wrong and I will never say it again in the future."
Chu Xichao's expression softened: "It is true that the Master of Baili Palace will never marry for your grandma's sake, but your grandma only has your grandfather in her heart in this life. Since your grandfather passed away, she has not even seen the Master of Baili Palace again.
.”
Chu Tian prayed: "It's my son Meng Lang. I will definitely never say this again in the future."
Chu Xichao patted Chu Xidao's shoulder: "Don't worry, it's yours, no one can take it away."
night.
The Chu Tianshu family gathered in the Forbidden City again.
Li Yuemei insisted on cooking herself and cooked a table full of home-cooked dishes.
Chu Tianshu picked up a pair of chopsticks and stir-fried shredded pork with sharp peppers, drank another glass of wine, and exhaled a long and contented breath: "This is called eating. No matter how good the food in the Chu family is, it's hard to taste."
Qiao Shiyuan looked at Chu Xidao, then rolled her eyes at Chu Tianshu: "I don't see you eating less."
Everyone laughed.
At this time, Shen Jiaoyan strode in from outside: "Young Master Chu, there is movement over there at Chu Xichao."
