Zhu Qianning did not want to sit at the table arranged by Mo Yu. Instead, she and her sisters crowded on Luo Zheng's table, chattering.
Zhou Xian, Mo Can and others had a lively chat with them.
Although the men and women in the Eastern Territory are strictly guarded, in the internal gatherings of the noble clans, everyone is not so restrained, and from time to time, laughter like silver bells can be heard from their table.
It has to be said that Mo Can is a born optimist. Even though he was always angry when he returned home, he was still talking and laughing at this moment. It seemed that he had forgotten all the unhappiness just now. He would tell some jokes from time to time, which made several female disciples laugh.
laughing out loud.
After a while, Mo Xiuyan and Mo Yu over there arranged a few other tables of guests, and then came straight over here.
With a smile on his face, Mo Xiuyan faced Zhu Qianning and said with a smile: "Today's gathering at the Mo Mansion was attended by the eldest lady of the Zhu family. Mo Xiuyan is extremely honored!"
In fact, Mo Xiuyan was being very polite.
After all, Mo Xiuyan is the head of the Mo family, the head of a clan, and a strong person in the Zhaoshen realm. Even if Zhu Qianning is the apple of the eye of the Shenzhen Zhu family, there is no need for Mo Xiuyan to be so polite.
If a person is extremely polite to others, then he must have an agenda!
Mo Xiuyan's purpose is not difficult to guess.
He had known that his son was interested in Zhu Qianning.
The nobles are extremely sensitive to this kind of news. Mo Xiuyan knew very well that if the Mo family, a declining noble family, clings to the Zhu family, it is not difficult to imagine the benefits in the future.
However, if Zhu Qianning was just a collateral line of the Zhu family, or even a direct descendant, Mo Xiuyan would not be so attentive and willing to condescend to give such courtesy to a descendant.
But Mo Xiuyan was also a human being who had climbed out of the imperial capital. The news that Zhang Wuxian knew, Mo Xiuyan also knew.
Zhu Qianning's status in the Zhu family is extraordinary! If his son really gets married to Zhu Qianning, it will basically be like clinging to the big tree of the Zhu family!
Although Mo Xiuyan also understood that this matter was very difficult, doing so would not only fulfill his son's wish, but also help the Mo family get through this difficult period. With such great benefits, he would help his son fight no matter what.
Give it a try.
Despite the way Zhu Qianning was laughing and joking, after all, she was born into a famous family and had been in such situations for a long time since she was a child, so she was able to handle them with ease.
Zhu Qianning stood up quickly and said: "Uncle Mo, there is no need to be so polite. I came to support you today mainly because of Mo Yun's invitation, not to mention the word "glorification".
Mo Xiuyan laughed and said: "No matter what, Qian Ning, you are willing to come here just to bring honor to my Mo family. As a good friend of Mo Yun, I, as an uncle, must show my gratitude no matter what!"
After that, Mo Xiuyan took out a small brocade box from his sleeve. Then with a slight shake of his hand, the brocade box in his hand jumped open automatically, revealing a small bracelet from the brocade box.
.
The bracelet is completely blood red, but the blood red color is not dazzling. Instead, it makes people feel a warm feeling when it enters the eyes. Obviously, this bracelet is not extraordinary.
"This Hunyuan Blood Bracelet should be regarded as a greeting gift. Qian Ning, please accept it," Mo Xiuyan said slowly.
Seeing the Hunyuan Blood Bracelet, Zhu Qianning's lips curled up.
With Zhu Qianning's knowledge, he could tell at a glance how extraordinary this Hunyuan Blood Bracelet was.
If you read it correctly, the raw material of this Hunyuan Blood Bracelet is actually carved from Hunyuan Blood Jade, which is a kind of jade produced in the Far East.
It is said that there is a Cangxue Mountain in the far east. It is said that Cangxue Mountain is covered in ice and snow all year round. From a distance, it looks like an ordinary snow mountain, with nothing special about it.
But every year in March and April, the top of Cangxue Mountain will erupt. A normal volcanic eruption will spew out billowing lava, but what Cangxue Mountain erupts is a bright red liquid.
This bright red liquid is very much like the blood in the human body, so Cangxue Mountain is also called Cangxue Mountain!
Before Cangxue Mountain erupted, many people went there, and their purpose was not the bright red liquid.
Because this liquid is not only useless to humans, but also harmful. The bright red liquid contains toxins. If exposed to it for a long time, humans will be poisoned, turn black, and die from sores all over their bodies. Therefore, most people erupt in Cangxue Mountain
When , I dare not go there.
Only innate creatures can isolate the bright red liquid from the outside of the body and protect it from poison.
The reason why these natural creatures risk the danger is to get the Hunyuan Blood Jade, which will be sputtered out along with the eruption of Cangxue Mountain.
However, during the annual eruption, there are usually only dozens or hundreds of Hunyuan Blood Jade, which is very rare. Most innate creatures just try their luck. If they can't find it, it's bad luck. If they can find one,
Two pieces of Hunyuan Blood Jade would bring you great luck. At the price of Hunyuan Blood Jade, if you only need one piece, you would be considered a windfall.
If this Hunyuan Blood Jade is worn on the body, it can soak the blood into the skin. Over time, the blood in the human body will become stronger. After the person's blood becomes stronger, not only will the strength increase, but the spirit will also become better!
With such miraculous effects, can you imagine the value of Hunyuan Blood Jade?
Generally speaking, Hunyuan blood jade is not too big. Even if it is picked up, it is usually processed into a jade pendant, and the jade plaque is hung around the neck.
Like the Hunyuan Blood Bracelet in Mo Xiuyan's hand, if it were carved out of Hunyuan Blood Jade, it would require a piece of Hunyuan Blood Jade as big as a fist. You can imagine how precious this bracelet is.
However, it was precious, but Zhu Qianning did not notice it.
With Zhu Qianning's position in the family, if she wants, even family heirlooms can be handed over to her...
So when she was in Baidi City last time, Zhu Qianning threatened Zhu Feihang that if she refused to pay to save Luo Zheng, she would sell family heirlooms such as the Taiyi Divine Needle...
The heirlooms in Zhu Qianning's hands are far beyond what a small Mo family can compare with. The value of each piece is ten times or a hundred times more precious than the Hunyuan Blood Bracelet.
Therefore, to other people, the Hunyuan Blood Bracelet is an extremely rare thing, but to Zhu Qianning, it is just rare and common.
Sparse and ordinary are sparse and ordinary. Zhu Qianning definitely cannot accept this thing. She is not related to the Mo family. It is definitely inappropriate to give such a precious thing to the Mo family for the first time.
So Zhu Qianning shook her head and said, "Uncle Mo, I can't accept this."
At this time, Mo Yu directly took out the Hunyuan Blood Bracelet from the brocade box, and said to Zhu Qianning with a smile: "Qian Ning, what's this? It's just a bracelet, there is nothing you can accept or not!"
Zhu Qianning smiled slightly: "No reward for no merit. It's my first time to come to Mo Mansion, so I shouldn't accept such valuable things."
"That's good. Wouldn't it be nice to come to my house more and walk around more in the future?" Mo Yu said with a smile.
Luo Zheng sat next to him and frowned slightly. He had never seen such a shameless person before. This father and son were really unscrupulous. Zhu Qianning even said no, and they still wanted to force this.
It's a little too ugly.
Just when Luo Zheng was about to step forward and help Zhu Qianning block it, someone at the table suddenly said: "This bracelet cannot be given away!"
The speaker was Mo Can. At this moment, Mo Can had a straight face and said: "This bracelet cannot be given away!"
Luo Zheng had a surprised look on his face.
Since entering the Mo Mansion, Mo Canke has always been extremely tolerant. Even if the officials and servants made harsh words and neglected their behavior, he endured it, and even Luo Zheng, Zhang Wuxian and others were still offended.
But why did Mo Can suddenly become so stiff at this moment?
Moreover, he was facing Mo Xiuyan, the head of the Mo family.
When Mo Xiuyan saw that it was Mo Can who was speaking, his face darkened, but he did not speak. Instead, Mo Yu jumped out first and said, "Mo Can, remember, this is not the place for you to talk!"
This time, Mo Can refused to give in at all. He shook his head and said, "I want to say, you can't give this bracelet away. This bracelet belongs to my father. Since my father died, this blood jade bracelet has been with me forever."
It disappeared without a trace, but it turned out to be in your hands!"
"Can'er, please don't talk nonsense. After you lost your father, I have always taken care of you. Why do you talk like this?" Mo Xiuyan is the head of the family. At this moment, some lies were exposed by his nephew, and his expression changed.
Of course it didn't look good, but since he didn't want to confront Mo Can, he could only change the subject.
"Treat me well?" Mo Can still shook his head in disappointment, "Third uncle, I don't care whether you treat me well or not. You and I know clearly in our hearts that the dignified Mo family is unwilling to issue me a noble document, and I have to go through myself.
I won't argue with you about these little things. After my father died, I didn't treat him like a nobleman. I still won't argue with you about such unfilial things. But I will ask you, why do I
After dad died, his blood jade bracelet disappeared, but now it appears in your hand?"
Hearing Mo Can's question, Mo Xiuyan's eyes suddenly flashed with panic, but after all, he was a long-established expert. He quickly calmed down and even had a smile on his face: "Can'er, what do you want?
Oh, this blood jade bracelet is not the one that belonged to your father."
"Really? Could it be that, Third Uncle, you deceived me when I was young and didn't remember anything? But I remember clearly that there were four big characters engraved on the back of the blood jade bracelet, which was "dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness", and the four characters
Next to the big characters, there is a row of small talismans. Could it be that, Third Uncle, you still want to say that these blood jade bracelets were originally a pair?"
As soon as Mo Can finished speaking, everyone followed his gaze and looked at the blood jade bracelet. Sure enough, they saw four words on the inside of the blood jade bracelet, which means "dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness".
At this moment, both Mo Xiuyan and Mo Yu were unable to step down.
