Today's banquet is considered a family banquet of the Jian family, so there are not many people.
Apart from the Jian family, the only ones eligible to sit at the table were Chu Sui and his two apprentices.
Although Chu Tianshu and Qingqing followed Jian Qingxuan, they could only wait on the side, but there were no seats for them.
Even so, this is already a rare treatment. Others are not even qualified to come in with their attendants.
In the middle seat are the direct descendants of Jian Xi Lai.
Before Jian Qingxuan could sit down, a beautiful woman with heavy make-up said in a strange tone: "I heard that today's banquet was specially held for Xuan'er's fiancé, City Master Sha Shao. Xuan'er is really a big honor.
"
Chu Tianshu glanced briefly and saw that the woman who spoke was the one who had an affair with Zhan Pingyuan that day.
Now, Chu Tianshu has almost figured out the basic situation of the City Lord's Mansion.
He knew that this woman was Jian Cuilian, the wife of Jian Tingguang, Jian Qingxuan's second uncle.
Chu Tianshu didn't know what the rules were like in other places in the Northern Jedi. Anyway, here in Giant Sword City, after a woman gets married, she must take her husband's surname.
Jian Qingxuan glanced at Jian Cuilian lightly, ignored her, and sat down on the chair pulled out by Qingqing.
Jian Qingxuan's uncle Jian Tingchang's eyes fell on Chu Tianshu who was standing at the side, and he squinted and said, "Is this the handyman who beat Sha Pingwei in chess today?"
Jian Qingxuan remained expressionless and ignored him.
Chu Tianshu's eyes flickered. It seemed that the relationship between the Jian family and others was not generally unharmonious.
Jian Tingchang didn't feel embarrassed at all, he looked at Jian Qingxuan with a smile, and then said: "Xuan'er, since this handyman can defeat Sha Pingwei, he must be smart. Uncle, I lack such a person by my side now, you
Can you give him to me?"
Jian Qingxuan spat out two words coldly: "No."
Jian Tingchang still did not give up: "Niece, as long as you give me this handyman who beats Sha Pingwei, you can make any conditions."
He kept the words "Win Sha Pingwei" in every sentence, and anyone could tell that it was a lie that he wanted Chu Tianshu, but it was true that he deliberately poisoned the sword Qingxuan.
Seeing this, Jian Tingguang also smiled and said: "When the elder brother said this, I suddenly became very interested in this handyman who defeated Sha Pingwei."
He looked at Jian Qingxuan: "Xuan'er, give me the person. No matter what price your uncle offers, I will give you double the price."
Jian Qingxuan glanced at the two elders coldly, and said angrily: "Are you interested or not? If you have the ability, wait until grandpa comes, then you can continue talking."
At this time, Jian Xilai's loud voice came from outside: "What did you say?"
Following the words, he took Jian Yun and Sha Pingwei and strode in from outside.
Everyone in the arena stood up in a hurry.
Jian Tingguang said with a sarcastic smile: "It's nothing, we are joking with Xuan'er."
Jian Xilai led Sha Pingwei directly to the top position. He ignored the others and smiled kindly at Jian Qingxuan: "Xuan'er, come to grandpa."
"good."
Jian Qingxuan responded and followed the words and walked to Jian Xilai's side.
Seeing Jian Xilai pulling Jian Qingxuan and Sha Pingwei to sit down next to him, the faces of Jian Tingchang and others became very ugly.
At this time, Jian Tingguang noticed the Fierce Sun Sword in Sha Pingwei's arms, and asked with some surprise: "Father, why did you let the Young City Master hold the sword for you?"
Jian Tingchang, however, was obviously more thoughtful than Jian Tingguang. He stood up with a smile and said, "The young city lord is a guest from afar. How can I let the young city lord hold the sword for my father..."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand towards Shapingwei: "I'll do it."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Shapingwei's mouth, and he refused bluntly: "No need."
Jian Xilai glanced at his two sons and said expressionlessly: "I have already given the Fiery Sun Sword to Ping Wei."
Hearing this, Jian Tingchang and Jian Tingguang's hearts "thumped" at the same time.
You know, the Fierce Sun Sword is the sword that Jian Xilai has kept with him for most of his life.
Now he gave the sword to Sha Pingwei. What does it mean?
"You all know that the master of the palace wants to conquer the barbarians, so I won't say more."
Jian Xilai looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Next, the palace master will gather the power of the entire Renyin Palace to form a coalition army. As for the commander of the coalition forces, the palace master will take over from each city in order to give the successors in each city a chance to experience.
Choose among them.”
Hearing this, Jian Tingchang and Jian Tingguang's eyes all lit up.
Jian Cuilian's eyes also flickered, and she immediately looked at Zhan Pingyuan, who was sitting on Chu Sui's left hand side.
Jian Tingchang said with burning eyes: "Father, I am willing to share your worries."
Jian Xilai said expressionlessly: "The master of the palace will hold a military event, and the commander will be chosen on the basis of merit. Do you think you can do it?"
"this……"
Jian Tingchang's expression suddenly froze.
Jian Tingguang, who was not willing to lag behind and was ready to fight, also swallowed the words that came to his lips.
Jian Cuilian, whose eyes were bright just now, were filled with disappointment after hearing this.
She originally wanted to go through Zhan Pingyuan and ask Chu Sui to help fight for it. Since she was going to participate in military affairs, it was a waste of time.
She still knows how much her husband weighs.
Seeing the performance of his two sons, Jian Xilai shook his head in disappointment, and then snorted coldly: "What? When you heard that you were going to participate in martial arts, didn't you even have the courage to fight for it?"
Jian Tingchang and Jian Tingguang both drooped their heads.
Jian Tingguang said solemnly: "We know that our cultivation is low, and we are afraid of embarrassing Jujian City and our father..."
"waste!"
Jian Xilai cursed angrily, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood: "Why did I give birth to you two losers?"
Hearing this, Jian Tingchang and Jian Tingguang's heads drooped even lower.
Jian Xilai was also very depressed. He had been brave all his life, but after giving birth to three sons, why were two of them not suitable for cultivation?
He patted Sha Pingwei on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "I am going to let Pingwei represent Renyin Palace in this military event. Do you have any objections?"
"No objection." Jian Tingchang said with a sneer: "The child will unconditionally obey all decisions of his father."
Jian Tingguang also echoed: "Ping Wei is Xuan'er's fiancé, so it makes sense for us to represent our Jusword City. Moreover, he has a high level of cultivation and is just the right candidate."
Seeing his two sons failing to live up to expectations, Jian Xilai became so angry that he really wanted to crush them to death.
He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Let's have a dinner."
After everyone sat down, Jian Tingguang looked at the Fierce Sun Sword in Sha Pingwei's arms, his eyes full of envy.
He chuckled and said, "I saw Ping Wei's martial arts when he was a child. Over the years, I only know that Ping Wei's cultivation has made rapid progress, but I haven't had the chance to see him again."
Jian Tingchang looked at Sha Pingwei and echoed: "Pingwei, why don't you let everyone see it today?"
Sha Pingwei said coldly: "What I practice are killing skills, not for performances."
Jian Tingguang curled his lips and said, "Then find someone to practice with you."
Shapingwei asked coldly: "Who are you looking for?"
