supreme heaven

() The fog in the morning light has not dissipated, but the thousands of houses in Luocheng are already busy up and down. .

"Hurry up, hurry up..." The family servant, dressed in coarse cloth and embroidered with the family crest of Qianjia behind him, kept carrying the objects needed for the celebration into the courtyard, chairs one by one, and the incense burner for offering sacrifices to the ancestors. A table placed in front of a guest, as well as exquisite tea sets and so on.

Due to the main hall of the Thousand Family Ancestral Hall...in disrepair for a long time...

Well, at least that's what it claims to be.

Therefore, the succession ceremony that was supposed to be held in the solemn main hall of the Qianjia ancestral hall was changed to an open space in the Qianjia residence.

It was originally the place where the disciples of the Qian family practiced martial arts. Within three days, the stone locks and other equipment for practicing martial arts were removed, and a red wooden high platform was set up, as well as 56 seats, 28 each, sitting opposite each other. Behind the elegant seats is a large open space for the servants of various families to rest, but there are no tables and chairs, just let these servants sit on the ground.

These are all commonplace, perhaps because the new head of the Qian Family is a woman, the entire open space is densely covered with flowers.And it's a pure begonia.

This is the most famous flower in Luocheng. The former emperor even spared no effort to dig a canal to connect Luoshui River, so that he could enjoy it in the southeast.Such a move naturally made the pink, yellow, and white flowers even more famous, and Luocheng was even called "Begonia City" at that time.

Although the decadent former dynasty has entered the ancient times, and the prosperity of Luocheng has gradually faded with the rise of Nandu and other cities, begonias are still loved by Qianjia and the people in Luocheng. Even the ancestors of Qianjia used begonias as family emblems at the beginning. idea.

Later, it was because he was afraid that people would mistakenly think that he had something to do with the previous dynasty, which would lead to unwarranted disasters, so he had to give up.

After entering the venue at this time, the children of the major aristocratic families suspected that they were in a sea of ​​flowers. They saw white, yellow, and pink six-petal flowers everywhere in the mist that had not completely dissipated. A faint fragrance is tangy and refreshing.

The people quickly sat down in their seats under the guidance of Qianjia's servants. As soon as they sat down, two rows of maids in light blue long skirts came up slowly and came to the table of everyone. Squatting down, he skillfully took out tea and tea sets from the red lacquer box held in his hands, clasped the teapot in his hands, and made tea for everyone, then slowly stood up, put his hands on his left side, slightly bent his knees, and walked After a salute, he slowly left the arena.

The neat and uniform movements immediately aroused the amazement of the children of the aristocratic family present.

The quality of the servants of the Qian family is so high that many families with deeper backgrounds cannot match.

"Unexpectedly, there is such an aristocratic family in the southeast." A child of an aristocratic family from the north sighed softly: "It seems that we need to look southeast more."

"At first, I thought the southeast were mostly merchants, and the aristocratic families were also tainted with the smell of copper. I never thought there could be such a family that abides by ancient etiquette." An elderly envoy from the aristocratic family gently raised his right hand and held the teacup in his hand He said: "Tea is a way of etiquette. This tea is based on the ancient system of 'three soups and three boilings'. It is a gentleman's tea to remove the dross and extract the essence." It was a surprise to taste it.”

Not to mention how surprised the descendants and envoys of the aristocratic families who came from afar were at Qianjia's orthodox etiquette, how much they were surprised at Qianjia's arrangement of the begonias, just talking about the few sitting at the front is already very interesting.

The one sitting first on the left of the head is undoubtedly Qin Guyue, who is all dressed up.

On such an occasion, it would be too weird for Qin Guyue to come here with armor, so Teng Snake leather armor is definitely not allowed to wear, and the Four-Phase Saint Robe cannot be worn outside casually, and on such an occasion, black Se Dahui is too unlucky.In the end, it was Qian Xunxue who chose a light blue gown, and asked the servant to embroider the Qin family's Yunhai Golden Bow emblem with gold thread overnight.

Leaving aside the thirty sets of armor and swords made of six-clawed snakes, no one would dare to compete with Qin Guyue for the status of the Qin family among the many families in the entire dynasty, the first position in the left hand.

Even if Qin Guyue was absent for some reason, this position had to be reserved, unless someone was really impatient and wanted to create a little trouble for himself and his family.

Sitting behind Qin Guyue were several other aristocratic families who had been in communication with the Qian family, many of them were friends of two generations, but three generations, and most of them were related by marriage.

If Qin Guyue hadn't appeared, the ones sitting at the front must be Qian Xunxue's uncles and cousins. Although their strength is not bad, compared with the Qin family, these families are horses Put it together with Kirin.

It's not that the horses are not enough to look at, but that the unicorn is too perverted!

Therefore, even if Qin Guyue, a young man, sat in front of them, these aristocratic families could only be docile. Just the family emblem of the golden bow in the sea of ​​clouds was enough to frighten them.

And sitting face to face with Qin Guyue, that is, the one on the right hand is Tang Jiu, the young master of the Tang family.

Sitting behind Tang Jiu is naturally Xu Shu, the acting young master of the Xu family.

In fact, when Qin Guyue sat down, she was already paying attention to the two people in front of her.

Xu Shu was still smiling calmly, but it was no secret that Xu Shu was hiding a knife in his smile, it was the consensus of many aristocratic families in the southeast, but it was obvious that Xu Shu, who had succeeded in being the Patriarch of the previous generation, had a more complex look than he had at the last Daxing City meeting How many times better.

Kicking away a wine bag and a rice bag, a corpse with a vegetarian meal, the useless young master who is only pressed on his head by blood, anyone will be in a good mood...

Compared with Xu Shu's indifference, Tang Jiu was rather dull. After sitting down, he just glanced at Qin Guyue across from him, and immediately closed his eyes, starting to close his eyes.

It seems that he doesn't care about anything, but Qin Guyue perceives that he is "seeing" others in a special way all the time, which is a bit similar to how Qin Guyue uses his mental power to perceive things outside, and Tang Guyue For most of the time, he was still looking at Qin Guyue.

Being stared at by such a person is obviously not a happy thing, let alone a good thing.

Unfortunately, Tang Jiu thought he was doing it without anyone noticing, but he didn't know that although his realm was higher than Qin Guyue's, Qin Guyue's mental power didn't know how many streets Tang Jiu could go out, just like peeping Crazy being discovered without knowing it.

Why does Tang Jiu seem to resent himself?

Qin Guyue couldn't help muttering in her heart at this time, could it be that she was too ruthless in Daxing City?That shouldn't be the case, the Xu family, who was exploited even more by Qin Guyue, was sitting next to him. Seeing his calm appearance, how could he be as bitter and bitter as him?

If something weird happens, there must be a demon.

Then the only explanation is... there are other reasons.

Only a loud chanting came from the other side: "Congratulations to the seventh-generation Patriarch Qian Chongying-sama, and the eighth-generation Patriarch Qian Xunxue-sama."

Immediately, the entire venue fell silent, and everyone automatically and consciously stopped discussing and clamoring, and all eyes were placed on the side arch behind the high platform of the venue.

"Carla Carla Carla..."

There was a series of sounds of armored guards walking. In the faint mist, two neat rows of guards in black armor, about a hundred people, came out with spears in hand and stood on both sides of the arch. Sword warriors in black lined up in two lines and walked out slowly.

Xu Shu, who was sitting at the front, had sharp eyes, and immediately saw that all the warriors with swords were wearing snake skin armor!In other words, this is the team that the Qin family gave to the Qian family!

On such a sensitive occasion as the patriarch's succession ceremony, to use people from the Qin family as guards... This is too...

Xu Shu's eyes were uncomfortable, and Tang Jiu's eyes were even more wrong. He patted the table in front of him lightly with his hand, causing the tea on the table to splash slightly.

I saw the thirty guards with swords walk up to the hundred gun-wielding warriors, turned around abruptly, stopped their feet together with a "da", and stood on opposite sides, with their left hands hanging down and their right hands holding the swords. The scabbard, head held high, mighty and majestic.

Under the protection of these 130 armored warriors, under the expectant eyes of 56 descendants of the aristocratic family, two figures slowly came out from the arch.

The middle-aged man in front is Qian Chongying, the seventh-generation Patriarch of the Qian Family who has announced to live in seclusion. The last time Qin Guyue saw him was at most seven days, and the Patriarch of the Qian Family, no, should be The previous Patriarch was gone, but he seemed to be ten years older. His skin, which was not badly maintained, was covered with wrinkles.

If someone said now that the Patriarch of the Qian Family in front of him was not a middle-aged man in his 50s who had just reached his destiny, but a 70-year-old old man, I am afraid that some people would believe it.

Qian Chongying is dressed in a dark blue robe, with a family crest embroidered with the word "Qian" in seal script on the chest, and star anise icicles on the cuffs and cuffs, which is the standard dress of the Patriarch of the Qian family. At this time, Qian Xunxue behind him is Wearing a set of Patriarch costumes custom-made for her.

It's just that compared with her bad old man, even if she wears the exact same clothes, today's Qian Xunxue is extraordinarily beautiful. Wearing the dark blue robe with star anise icicles on her body, it's like wearing the same clothes. She looks like an iceberg snow lotus.

And her whole temperament seems to be like an eternal ice, the owner of the yin fate star physique, a noble existence like the ice queen.

When Qian Xun Xue appeared, the eyes of the entire venue were undoubtedly attracted by her, even...

Qin Guyue felt that Tang Jiu's spiritual power seemed to be shifted, and almost all of it was transferred to Qian Xunxue's body, "watching" with an almost greedy expression.

If this is the case, Qin Guyue still can't understand, then it's really a vain reputation.

So it was because of Qianxun Xue...
