Chapter 521 The Banquet of Taihu Lake

The next morning, the cold wind was still howling, but the sun was shining brightly, and the sky seemed washed blue, like a vast mirror.

When the bright sunshine came in with the loud military songs in the distance, Tang Feng opened his eyes from his drowsiness.

After being stunned for a while, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. Once upon a time, he was like those little guys on the playground, getting up early before dawn and doing rigorous morning exercises.

Although he still lives in the Hidden Dragon Team, after joining the Dragon Team, he has quit the team status. Naturally, he no longer needs to think about the harsh training before.

It was a cold morning, and as he listened to the high-pitched sounds of training, Tang Feng suddenly felt lonely.

At the moment, Chen Haoran is in front of Guwu Tangmen, and Xu Yao has also walked around the world with his sword. As for Zhan Kuang, it seems that he is determined to retreat, and he has not been seen in the past two days.

Fortunately, while Tang Feng was bored, Mao Shiba was already knocking on the door.

"Master, can you please get up? The old servant has prepared breakfast." Mao Shiba shouted outside. With his current hearing ability, he naturally heard the sound of getting up in the house.

Tang Feng couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, washed briefly and opened the door.

"Mr. Mao, there is no need to be so polite. From now on, you and I should treat each other as friends," Tang Feng said.

Mao Shiba brought the breakfast in and put it on the table in the room. Then he said: "The young master is magnanimous and can't bear to accept an old man like me as his servant, but the old servant is not an ungrateful person."

"I picked it from the cafeteria earlier. I know the young master likes to be clean, so I brought it here specially." Tang Feng knew that this old guy was stubborn, so it was hard to say anything else.

He then changed the subject and asked, "How was your realm consolidated last night?"

Mao Shiba bowed and replied: "Thanks to the young master's gift of the Qi Gathering Pill, the old servant's realm has been completely consolidated. However, the dragon claw hand is too mysterious for the old servant to understand for a while."

Tang Feng nodded slightly. After all, the dragon claw hand on the parchment was not just Shaoshishan's dragon claw hand, but also incorporated his nine dragon claw styles.

Although he did not integrate the Void Claw, the last move of the Nine Dragon Claw Styles, it was still unusual. Neither Mao Shiba nor Zhan Kuang were extremely talented people, so it was normal that they could not comprehend it in a short period of time.

"Let's have breakfast first. The Chen family's banquet is at noon. If you have anything you don't understand after dinner, you can ask me." Tang Feng waved his hand slightly and sat down first.

Because he knew that if he didn't sit down first, the old man would never sit down first.

This is probably because Mao Shiba grew up in the Wudang Clan and strictly abides by ancient etiquette. Although he seems a bit dull, he sometimes looks cute.

After breakfast, the two went to the secluded courtyard to the west, and Tang Feng began to teach Mao Shiba how to practice.

Time passed slowly, and when the sun was about to reach noon, someone suddenly came from outside the door to announce that Butler Chen of the Chen family had personally come to pick him up and was waiting at the door.

After hearing this, Mao Shiba couldn't help but sneered: "You are still so anxious. Could it be that Chang Tianmen is afraid that we won't dare to go to the banquet and ran away!"

Tang Feng shook his head at this and said with a smile: "Maybe this is just because the Chen family is more polite to us."

Although the two of them were talking, they did not stop. After taking a short rest, they walked towards the gate of the team.

The people who came did not know that Butler Chen was the only one who came, and Zhuge Furong also came with him. At this moment, the two of them were standing at the inconspicuous gate of the Long Yin team.

Seeing Tang Feng coming out, Butler Chen immediately came to greet him and said with a smile on his face: "Good morning, Mr. Tang. Considering Mr. Tang's identity, the head of the family specially ordered me to come and pick him up."

Tang Feng nodded slightly and said, "Butler Chen, you're welcome."

Regardless of whether it was because he was worried that they wouldn't dare to put it on their eyes, the other party came to pick him up in person anyway, and Tang Feng would not care too much about such trivial matters.

Zhuge Furong was standing nearby, looking a little haggard. She just stared at him with a pair of bloodshot eyes and did not speak.

Tang Feng touched his nose and had no choice but to break the silence and asked: "Did you have a good rest last night?"

Unexpectedly, Zhuge Furong said: "The Chen family has arranged a banquet and there is no good banquet. Do you think I can rest well?"

In fact, as soon as Tang Feng asked the question, he knew that his question was unnecessary. After all, at this time, Zhuge Furong's face was haggard and her eyes were bloodshot. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that she had not slept well last night.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Tang Feng was slightly stunned. Although he was usually eloquent, he didn't know what to say at this time.

Zhuge Furong probably realized that there was something wrong with her tone, so she quickly changed her words: "Last night, I informed Grandpa and told him to set off overnight and arrive at the imperial capital in the morning. At noon today, he will probably attend the Chen family's banquet."

Tang Feng nodded and said: "That's very good. After all, no matter what, you two are considered in-laws. There are some things that you have to face."

Zhuge Furong nodded slightly and said: "Then let's get in the car. It's almost time. We can't keep others waiting."

She referred to the Chen family as someone else, and there were all the old people present, so there was no way anyone could not understand what she meant. Moreover, Zhuge Furong did not entertain guests at the Chen family as a niece.

Now she is going with Tang Feng, and her attitude is already very obvious.

Butler Chen sighed slightly and waved his hand to open the car door and invite the two of them to get in. He had been a butler in the Chen family for thirty years. Although he was still an outsider, he, as a butler, could see some things more clearly than anyone else.

However, due to his status as a butler, it is not convenient for him to say certain things.

After everyone got in the car, Butler Chen started the car and set off immediately.

Perhaps even the Chen family realized that something might go wrong with today's banquet, so it was not a family banquet. The banquet was held in a luxurious ancient restaurant near Taihu Lake in the imperial capital.

The restaurant is right next to Taihu Lake. Taihu Lake is vast and lined with willows. Although the cold wind is blowing hard, the lake is very calm and the blue waves are swaying slightly, making it look like a mirror.

It's just that the people in Taihu Restaurant are not as calm as the lake water at this moment.

There are not many customers in the restaurant today because the Chen family has reserved the restaurant. There are seven floors of the ancient wooden restaurant, but there is not a single customer on the six floors below.

Because all the guests are concentrated on the seventh floor of the top floor.

The seventh floor is open on all sides, with a square tower on top to block rainwater, so people sitting here can overlook the entire Taihu Lake below.

There are not many people on the top floor, only three people at the moment.

Among them was an old man with white beard and hair, a stout middle-aged man, and a handsome young man.

"Father, will our actions today completely offend that Tang Feng?" the middle-aged man suddenly asked. He was wearing a suit and had a round belly.

The old man was wearing a gray Tang suit. Compared to his son, he looked much calmer. He looked at the vast lake below and asked without answering: "I would like to ask you, how does that boy named Tang compare to Chang Tianmen?"

?How does it compare to the Yi family?"

The middle-aged man was silent, but the young man Chen Jianjun said: "That's not to mention grandpa, that guy surnamed Tang, although his martial arts is not weak, but compared to Chang Tianmen and the Yi family, he is far behind."

The old man in Tang suit snorted coldly and said: "Then it's over!"
