Two middle-aged men walked slowly from a distance with their hands behind their backs.
These two middle-aged men have an extraordinary aura. One of them is wearing a blue Tang suit. His eyes are sharp, he is not angry and intimidating, and he exudes the aura of a superior.
The other middle-aged man was wearing a white robe, with a handsome face and graceful demeanor, like a scholar walking out of an ancient painting.
When they saw these two middle-aged men, everyone around them was shocked and started talking in low voices.
"Look, isn't that Xiao Zhengguo, the head of the Xiao family?"
"I heard that the relationship between the Xiao family and the Li family has not been very good over the years. I didn't expect that he would also attend today's wedding!"
"Who is that person next to Xiao Zhengguo? Why have I never seen him before?"
"No way! You actually don't even know him! He is Bai Yanwu, the second master of the Bai family, the famous Lingtian War God of Xia Kingdom back then!"
"What! He is Bai Yanwu? Didn't Bai Yanwu fall away more than ten years ago?"
"Who said Bai Yanwu died? He was just seriously injured! Over the years, Bai Yanwu has been recuperating in the Bai family and rarely shows up!
"I heard that the Bai family recently hired an alchemy master to cure Bai Yanwu's injuries. Now Bai Yanwu has not only fully recovered, but his strength has also reached a higher level."
"Really? If Bai Yanwu recovers, then the Bai family will rise again!"
The arrival of Xiao Zhengguo and Bai Yanwu immediately caused a sensation at the scene.
As the other two major families among the four major families, the relationship between the Bai Xiao family and the Qin and Li families has not been very good.
The relationship between the Xiao family and the Li family was originally good, but since Li Guotao kicked Li Changye out of the Li family three years ago and ascended to the position of head of the family, the relationship between the Xiao family and the Li family has deteriorated, and now there is almost no contact.
.
The Bai family and the Qin family are the two weaker families among the four major families. The two major families have been fighting openly and secretly, and have accumulated a lot of hatred.
Everyone did not expect that the Xiao family and the Bai family would come to attend the wedding today.
When Li Guotao saw Xiao Zhengguo and Bai Yanwu coming hand in hand, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, he laughed and went up to them, raised his hands and said to Xiao Zhengguo and Bai Yanwu:
"Welcome you two! It's my son's honor that you two can attend my son's wedding despite your busy schedule!"
Xiao Zhengguo looked at Li Guotao, with a half-smile on his face, and said: "Brother Li, congratulations to you! After this wedding, your two families will be united, and Kyoto will be your world in the future.
!”
Li Guotao smiled slightly and said to Xiao Zhengguo: "Brother Xiao, if you are willing, our two families can also join forces. My Yuehan has admired Lian Yun for a long time!"
The Lianyun mentioned by Li Guotao is Xiao Shuying's brother - Xiao Lianyun!
Xiao Lianyun is the eldest son of Xiao Zhengguo. Although his martial arts talent is not as good as Xiao Shuying, he is still a well-known genius in Kyoto. He has cultivated to the realm of God of War before he was more than thirty years old, and is the next successor of the Xiao family.
Xiao Zhengguo said lightly: "I appreciate Brother Li's kindness! That boy Lian Yun is so naughty, how can he be worthy of Miss Yuehan! I think it's better to forget it!"
Not worthy?
After hearing Xiao Zhengguo's words, the faces of everyone around him suddenly showed a strange look.
Li Yuehan is indeed a famous beauty in Kyoto, but her character is something that no one dares to compliment.
Like the children of those big families in Kyoto, Li Yuehan has a perverse personality. She has been arrogant and domineering since she was a child. She never takes anyone seriously. Before she is twenty years old, she has already had more than a dozen boyfriends around her.
Xiao Zhengguo actually said that his son was not worthy of such a social butterfly!
How humble!
Li Guotao's eyes flashed and he smiled lightly: "Since Brother Xiao doesn't want to, then I won't force it! If Brother Xiao changes his mind at any time, you can come to me at any time!"
Qin Yunyi on the side saw Bai Yanwu, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes: "Brother Bai, I heard that your injuries have fully recovered, I am really gratified!"
Bai Yanwu looked at Qin Yuanyi and said meaningfully: "Thank you, Brother Qin, for your concern! I would also like to thank Brother Qin for taking care of our Bai family over the years. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely thank Brother Qin!"
Although Bai Yanwu's voice was calm, it gave everyone present a chill in their hearts.
Ever since Bai Yanwu was injured, the Qin family has been secretly suppressing the Bai family for more than ten years.
If it weren't for the Bai family's profound background, I'm afraid they would have lost their position among the four major families long ago.
Not only that, Bai Yanwu has always suspected that the reason why he was besieged in the first place was entirely because the Qin family was behind it, and it was Qin Yuanyi who leaked his whereabouts, causing him to be seriously injured.
Now, Bai Yanwu has investigated some clues. If he is asked to find out that the mastermind behind this incident is really the Qin family, then he will definitely make the Qin family pay the heaviest price!
Just as the four men of Bai Yanwu were secretly fighting, a burst of noise suddenly came from not far away. Bai Yanwu and others heard the sound and ran away, only to see a middle-aged man wearing a robe appearing in front of them.
This middle-aged man has a strong build and a lightning-like gaze. He walks with a mighty look and exudes a powerful aura that makes everyone breathless.
"Minister Ling!"
When they saw this middle-aged man, Li Guotao and others were shocked.
This middle-aged man is none other than Ling Xiao, the deputy minister of the Xia State Armed Forces Department.
In addition to Minister Lin Zhenhai, Xia Guowei's Military Department also has three deputy ministers in charge of different departments.
Ling Xiao is one of the three deputy ministers. He is extremely powerful. It is said that he has already reached the high level of the Heavenly Dao Realm.
"Minister Ling, welcome, welcome!"
Li Guotao hurriedly greeted him with a smile.
"Brother Li, Brother Qin, I'm sorry! Our minister is busy with something and can't get away for the time being, so he specially sent me to attend the wedding of Mr. Li and Miss Qin. You two won't blame me!" Ling Xiao smiled at Li Guotao.
and Qin Yuanyi said.
"Where, where!"
Li Guotao waved his hand quickly and said with a smile: "We are very happy that Minister Ling can come to this wedding in person!"
After saying that, Li Guotao stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation and said to Ling Xiao: "Minister Ling, please come in! I have asked people to prepare drinks. We will not go home until we are drunk today!"
"Okay! It just so happens that Lao Xiao and the others are here, let's have a good drink today!"
Ling Xiao laughed loudly and walked towards the Li family manor accompanied by Li Guotao.
Just when everyone was about to enter the Li family manor, Zhang Donghai suddenly ran over from a short distance away and said to Li Guotao with excitement:
"The head of the family, Elder Tiancan and the others are here!"
