No matter what kind of banquet it is, the big shots rely on their status and will never arrive early. They will step in after everyone arrives and become the focus of everyone's attention.
Logically speaking, Wang Jinling, Xiling Tianlei, Xiling Tianyu, and Nanling Jinfan are all big shots. They should be the pressure point. After all the little guys entered the Feng Mansion, they entered the scene in a high-profile manner. However, none of these people played their cards as expected.
Arrive early, and those who arrive late will be shocked...in cold sweat.
There is no way, Wang Jinling is coming to support Feng Qingchen. He will never miss Feng Qingchen's important event for the sake of face. As long as Wang Jinling arrives, those who are waiting and watching will have the courage to come in, and those who did not plan to come in the first place will
People will change their minds, step into Feng Mansion, and take the opportunity to establish friendship with the eldest son of the Wang family.
No one in the officialdom is someone who flatters the superior and suppresses the inferior. If you have no profit to gain, why should others flatter you?
Feng Mansion, which has a title but no real power, is not taken seriously by these officials at all. Without the two famous names of Jiuhuangshu and Wang Jinling, any official in the imperial city can crush Feng Qingchen to death. Today, there are no two people, Wang Jinling and Cui Haoting.
With a young master in charge, the number of guests coming to Feng's house will be reduced by nine-tenths.
As for Xiling Tianlei and Nanling Jinfan, they were just here to watch the fun. Besides, this is Dongling and they don't need to be the finale. There is no difference between coming early or late.
Xiling Tianyu came early, firstly to thank Feng Qingchen for healing his legs, and secondly to help Feng Qingchen look after Xiling Tianlei. It would not be too much to have him in Xiling Tianlei.
Although more people came than Feng Qingchen expected today, fortunately, Feng Qingchen was prepared and opened three halls early, keeping them separate so as not to disturb each other.
She was responsible for receiving the female family members, while Cui Haoting and Wang Jinling greeted the young masters of the aristocratic families and the powerful officials. As for those literati and elegant guests, they would never be left in the cold with Mr. Yuan Xi around.
Birds of a feather flock together and people divide into groups. The people here today are all people with official positions. Even if they don't have official positions, they are from well-known families and are famous among the Qingliu literati. None of them are ordinary people.
Feng Qingchen invited Su Wenqing, but he did not come and only sent a generous gift. His appearance on such an occasion was just to make people laugh, so why bother.
No matter how rich or powerful a businessman is, he will still look down on him. In the past, with the support of Uncle Nine Emperors, he could be regarded as half official and half businessman. Among the famous nobles, those people would give more or less three points to Uncle Nine Emperors for his face. Now, now
The Nine Emperors Uncle was famous, but after all, he was still in the Zongren Mansion and had not been released from prison. It was understandable that Su Wenqing avoided him.
Everything was in order, no one mentioned what happened at the door, but Xiling Tianlei and Nanling Jinfan couldn't let go so quickly. If they were in Nanling or Xiling, just by Feng Qingchen's words, they could let Feng Qingchen
After the death, the two of them sat at the front table in silence and did not talk to the officials in Dongling. Xiling Tianyu accompanied them politely.
A lot of officials, big and small, came. When Zhai Dongming came on behalf of Prince Su's palace, the banquet had reached a small climax, which meant that almost everyone had arrived.
As soon as Zhai Dongming came in, he saw that the table at the main table was almost full. He said sheepishly: "I thought I came early enough, but it turned out that I was the last one to arrive."
Zhai Dongming was depressed. After a long time, he became an important guest in the finale. If this was the same as his grandfather, he... still lacked a little weight.
It's a pity that Ping Feng Qingchen couldn't ask for his grandfather's help.
Wang Jinling stood up with a smile and joked: "The prince is late, so I will drink three drinks as a penalty."
As soon as Wang Jinling spoke, a servant immediately brought three large bowls of wine to Zhai Dongming.
"No, Jin Ling, are you serious?" Zhai Dongming had a sad face. His stomach was empty. Drinking these three bowls of wine would hurt his stomach.
"What do you think?" Wang Jinling didn't answer any questions, even the wine was on the table, so he couldn't be serious.
The people with higher official positions were close to the main table. When they saw this scene, they immediately started shouting: "You must drink as a penalty, you must drink as a penalty. The prince must drink as a penalty."
"Yes, yes, fine wine, fine wine, Prince, you can drink it with confidence, the wine from Feng Mansion is very delicious, you will never suffer a loss." The person who had just drank Feng Mansion wine strongly recommended it.
"Yes, yes, Feng Mansion's wine is fragrant and mellow, and Prince Master's wine is worth it." There are many people advertising Feng Qingchen's wine. Of course, these people mostly want to cling to Prince Su's Mansion.
, leave a good impression in front of Zhai Dongming, the future Prince Su.
Zhai Dongming was interested when he heard it. He had drunk Feng Qingchen's peach blossom wine and it was quite delicious.
Leaning forward, the strong aroma of wine hit his face. Zhai Dongming took a breath and said, "This wine is indeed delicious. It's worth it. I drank these three bowls of wine."
Zhai Dongming is also an alcoholic. As soon as he smelled the pure aroma of the wine, he knew that the wine tasted good and was strong enough. Drinking a bowl of it on such a cold day would definitely make you feel warm. Zhai Dongming didn't want anyone to rush him, he was very proactive.
I picked up the wine and was about to drink it, but unfortunately...
When he wanted to drink, someone refused to let him drink.
"His Royal Highness has arrived." The eunuch's high-pitched voice sounded outside the door, drowning out the noise in the room.
This is the momentum of the final guest appearance. When the last one arrives, everyone has to stand up to greet them.
What? The prince is here?
Everyone looked at each other in shock, and some even picked their ears, suspecting that they had heard wrongly.
The prince must be idle. Feng Qingchen comes to the house, and he actually comes to visit in a serious manner. This...
Ahem, the prince's appearance on such an occasion is not a personal relationship, but a political tendency. When the prince appears, people will not think that the prince is praising Feng Qingchen, but that he is telling everyone that he stands on the Jiujiu River.
The emperor's uncle's side.
The prince is completely reckless and gives it a go!
Have courage!
When Feng Qingchen heard the prince coming in the inner courtyard, she was startled. She didn't expect that the prince would dare to come to Feng Mansion at the cusp of such a storm. It seemed that the prince was jumping over the wall in a hurry.
Feng Qingchen apologized to the ladies and went out to greet the prince. Of course, there was no need to go to the front yard to greet the prince. After all, the front yard was full of men. Feng Qingchen had no choice. Who made her Feng Qingchen?
The only owner of the mansion.
Ahem... No matter why the prince came, he had to go out to greet him in a serious manner. Wang Jinling smiled at Zhai Dongming, as if to say: Come on, you don’t have to drink this wine. You are not the last to arrive.
.
Zhai Dongming had a sad face.
"Let's go and greet you." Cui Haoting straightened his clothes and motioned to Wang Jinling and Zhai Dongming to join him. If the three of them didn't take the lead, how could these people dare to go out? As for the princes of Xiling and Nanling, forget it...
No one dared to let them go out to greet them.
Wow... The hall that was bustling just now was completely empty in an instant. Only the two brothers Xiling Tianlei and Nanling Jinfan were left sitting there, looking incomprehensible...
