"The Royal Family of the Yantian Empire, Ling Changfeng, a disciple of the Zhulu Inner Court, wish the three elders to be as blessed as the East Sea and live longer than the Southern Mountains." A clear and clear voice came from afar, and a young man in white walked towards Xiao Chengfan.
The young man is neatly dressed and has an extraordinary appearance. There is a faint sense of heroism between his brows, but he is modest, cautious, gentle and outstanding. His smile is like a spring breeze.
"Chang Feng, you are back." Xiao Chengfan said with a smile.
Ling Changfeng bowed slightly and saluted all the deans and elders first. Although Lin Juehe had already ordered that guests do not need to salute, but today besides being a guest, he also has another identity, that is, he is a disciple of Zhulu Inner Academy. The most basic thing is that
There are still some etiquette.
"Today is the seventieth birthday of the third elder. On behalf of the Yantian royal family, Chang Feng came to celebrate his birthday and presented a pair of golden koi that his father has bred for many years. One is a gift, and the other is to say hello to his friends on behalf of his father." Ling Changfeng spoke.
He is neither hasty nor slow, gentle and gentle, and his words reflect his extremely high level of self-cultivation.
The entourage behind him carried a gold basin. The top of the gold basin was covered with a gold lid, leaving seven gaps for ventilation. Inside the basin were two golden koi fish the size of a palm, jumping around and moving freely inside the basin.
Xiao Chengfan showed a joyful smile on his face and said: "These two koi are the treasures that Xiqu Kingdom paid tribute to your father. Your father has raised them for more than ten years and loves them very much. I wanted to see them at first.
You can see from his face that he wants to give them to me today, which is incredible!"
"It is because of our deep friendship with the third elder that my father gave these two koi as gifts to the third elder. From now on, the third elder can see them every day if he wants." Ling Changfeng said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, Chang Feng, you have come all the way, go upstairs quickly, your brothers and sisters are waiting above." Xiao Chengfan said with a smile.
Ling Changfeng nodded slightly, bid farewell to everyone, and walked slowly up to the second floor. The people in front of him were all so unfamiliar. He had been away for three months and had not even greeted these brothers properly. Now that he looked at them, they looked a little strange.
I feel like I don't fit in anymore.
"What else are you looking at? Over here!" Yan Ting waved to him and motioned for him to sit over. Naturally, he would not refuse. After all, when he was in the outer courtyard, he did not express his appreciation for Yan Ting, but at least he had a little friendship.
Now in the inner court, perhaps the main thing is to interact with him.
Yan Ting patted Ling Changfeng on the shoulder and said, "You've been away for three months, why are you back home?"
"Something happened at home, and my father asked me to go back, but it has not been resolved for three months. However, the third elder's birthday is coming soon, and my father asked me to come back first to pay his birthday. I have to go home after this incident is over."
Ling Changfeng also said frankly that his identity as the seventh prince of Yantian was no longer a secret, but there were some things that were still inconvenient to say.
Then, Ling Changfeng greeted everyone one by one. He and Mo Xuanzhang were somewhat similar. They were both good-looking, tall, talented, and equally liked by women.
"Junior Brother Chang Feng, do you have a partner?"
"Junior Brother Xuanzang doesn't have it either. Do you want to come over here and sit down together? Let's cultivate our relationship as fellow disciples."
At another table, there were eight female disciples in total. Except for Xiang Xinyue and Qin Feiling, the other six people all extended olive branches to them.
It’s not that they are really nymphomaniacs. After all, no matter how good-looking a person is, he cannot make everyone fascinated. But if a person is not good-looking, then the chance of being laughed at is much less.
.
For example……
Yan Ting is actually good-looking, but compared to Mo Xuanzhang, he is less refined, and compared to Ling Changfeng, he is less temperamental. Even Buyunya is a little more immature than him, which leads to his concentration.
The head of three families was suppressed to death by the three families.
At this time, a hand was put on Yan Ting's shoulder, Tang Li came over and said quietly: "Don't be discouraged, we are with you..."
"Oh, screw it, I'm so discouraged." Yan Ting said impatiently.
Next, people continued to walk together in small groups and walked into Tianxin Tower together.
"Huang Qi of the Snow Eagle Empire and his wife Gong Hua came to pay their respects to his birthday and wish Elder Xiao that the sun and moon will shine together and he will never grow old..."
"Tianyong Zongyue Duan, Xu Cang came to pay his birthday, and wish Elder Xiao a long spring and a happy family relationship..."
"Ou Chen, the Lord of Jade Dragon City, came to pay his birthday and wish Elder Xiao all the best, a prosperous sun and moon..."
One by one, distinguished people walked in under the loud voice of the welcoming deacon. Xiao Chengfan personally went down to greet them and chatted with these young friends. They called him Elder Xiao instead of Third Elder because Xiao Chengfan
Before they became the third elder of Zhulu Academy, they had little contact with each other. Even after knowing Xiao Chengfan's current identity, they still liked to call him Elder Xiao.
In just half an hour, the originally empty Tianxin Tower was filled with seats. This birthday banquet was destined to be extremely lively.
"Liu Yuetian, a graduate of Zhulu, came to pay his respects on his birthday."
Liu Yuetian held a folding fan and came to Xiao Xiao in a graceful manner under the attention of everyone.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
In front of Cheng Fan, he bowed respectfully to him.
"Yue Tian, didn't you go back to the Jialuo Empire? Why are you here?" Xiao Chengfan was very surprised by Liu Yuetian's arrival. The Jialuo Empire was two hundred thousand miles away, even if the flying bird flew at full speed.
It takes more than a month to come back. Liu Yuetian had just graduated, and he actually appeared here.
"Yue Tian has already calculated the time and knows that it will be the 70th birthday of the third elder in the near future, so I temporarily live in the Snow Eagle Empire and pay a visit to my father's friends, so I can come here today to pay my respects.
It's just that I came in a hurry and didn't prepare a birthday gift properly. Although it's not valuable, it's a psychic jade, but it is Yue Tian's heart. I hope the third elder will accept it." Liu Yuetian took out a white jade pendant, which was faintly visible.
A few tiny red threads, like blood threads.
Xiao Chengfan said with a smile: "Come here as you come. If you have anything else to bring, go sit up there and have a good chat with your junior brothers and sisters."
"Okay." Liu Yuetian responded with a smile.
Suddenly Xiao Chengfan's expression suddenly changed, he pulled Liu Yuetian and asked: "Is this Qilin Baoyu?"
He was just talking to Liu Yuetian and hadn't taken a closer look at the jade pendant. Although it looked very ordinary, the white jade pendant had a few blood-like things on it. Anyone who saw it at first glance would think it was an ordinary piece.
Jade pendant.
But Xiao Chengfan's eyesight is extraordinary. When he first saw the jade pendant, he didn't pay much attention to it. But when he took a closer look, the red line faintly exuded a majestic momentum, as if it came from the roar of an ancient beast, directly invading his mind.
.
Liu Yuetian smiled lightly and said: "The third elder has good eyesight, this is the Qilin jade."
"Qilin Baoyu!"
Hearing Liu Yuetian's admission, someone immediately exclaimed. Everyone at the banquet gradually became restless, and they began to talk endlessly about this jade pendant.
Yan Ting asked: "What is Qilin Baoyu?"
"Kilin jade is a precious jade pendant that is almost extinct. It itself is not valuable, but the red silk inside is said to be the blood of the ancient mythical beast Qilin. When blended into the jade pendant, it has the effect of refreshing and calming the mind, which is rare.
treasure." Ling Changfeng explained.
"Qilin blood, are there still qilins in this world?" Buyunya looked fascinated.
"I don't know, but there must be Qilin bloodline left. Very few people have seen this kind of auspicious beast." Chu Tianyuan shook his head slowly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't expect Liu Yuetian to actually take out a piece of Qilin jade as a birthday gift.
He really has a great family and great business, and he is worthy of being the fourth prince of the Jia Luo Empire.
The national power of the Jialuo Empire was far beyond what any of the three empires could compete with. The two combined could barely compete.
Xiao Chengfan's face darkened, and then he refused: "This is too precious, Yue Tian, I'm very happy that you came to the birthday banquet, but there is no need to give such an expensive gift, so you should take it back."
"Third Elder, today is your seventieth birthday. I am giving you a gift to represent my respect for you. If you don't accept it, then I will turn around and leave. Just pretend I have never been here today." Liu Yuetian made a gesture to leave.
Xiao Chengfan quickly grabbed him.
"That's not what I meant." Xiao Chengfan said thoughtfully, "Okay, then you go up first."
"Okay." Liu Yuetian said with a smile, and walked to the second floor. Once on the second floor, he did not go to Yan Ting's side, but to Yu Xiao's side. Across two railings, he faced Concubine Qin.
Ling and others said hello.
Yu Xiao saw Liu Yuetian coming towards him, opened a seat for him, then stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Senior Brother Liu."
"Well, sit down, Yu Xiao." Liu Yuetian responded with a faint smile.
Time gradually passes, and there are only a few seats in Tianxin Tower that no one has taken yet.
There are three empty seats at the elders' table. Five elders, Yuan Zhong, Hou Fei, Fan Tianling, Ouyang Xu, and Han Yang, have arrived, but Bai Gu and Wen Jingrong have not arrived yet.
Xiao Chengfan's eyes narrowed slightly, looking very worried.
At this time, the second elder and the seventh elder walked into Tianxin Tower, greeted all the guests, and began to take their seats.
Seeing the two of them entering Tianxin Tower, Xiao Chengfan's expression became more solemn. His eyes looked at the gate from time to time, but no one came.
"Lao San, Lao San!" Lin Juehe called Xiao Chengfan several times, but Xiao Chengfan didn't seem to hear him and sat there in a daze. He didn't react until Lin Juehe pushed him.
"Lao San, what are you doing? The time has come." Lin Juehe reminded.
"Oh, the time has come." Xiao Chengfan responded dimly, standing up and looking into the distance. At this time, another figure stood at the gate.
A white-haired old man walked in with a smile on his crutches, and laughed loudly as he walked: "Oh, I'm sorry, the old man is old and frail, and his legs and feet are weak, so he is a step late. Please forgive me, please forgive me!"
"No problem, no problem, Baigu Medical Saint Kuai
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Please take a seat."
"That's right, Bai Gu's wonderful hands and benevolent heart must have delayed rescuing people. It's not in the way, it's not in the way..."
Bai Gu sat down, looked at the two seats next to him, and said "yo ho": "Why hasn't Wen Nizi come yet? I remember she came for Xiao Xiao's sixtieth birthday ten years ago. Why is there no one here this year?"
Already?"
"The medical sage Baigu is eloquent and has a long breath. He doesn't look like an old and frail person."
At this moment, a female voice came into Tianxin Tower, followed by a woman in black.
She has a graceful figure and skin as white as snow. The dust of the years has not left any traces on her face. There is a hint of sharpness in her bright eyes. Xiang Xinyue probably follows her in this regard.
As early as thirty years ago, she was the most beautiful woman in Zhulu Academy. She was sought after by countless people and regarded her as the stars and moon in the sky. Her beauty not only influenced the male disciples in the inner courtyard, but also many disciples from other sects.
She was deeply attracted.
"She still hasn't changed!" Many people in the crowd thought to themselves.
They were once disciples of the inner courtyard and were influenced by Wen Jingrong for ten years. Now, they are all in their forties or fifties, but Wen Jingrong's appearance has not changed.
Xiang Xinyue's beautiful eyes moved slightly, she was surprised that Master would come to attend the third elder's birthday.
Yan Ting was lying on the railing, looking left and right, frowning. Buyunya patted him and said, "Senior brother, what are you doing?"
"Waiting for someone."
"Who are you waiting for?"
"My dad!"
"oh."
"Your father is coming too! Oh yes, you are the grandson of the third elder, and your father is his son. The son wishes his father a birthday... Then why haven't you come yet?"
"How do I know?" Yan Ting's face was almost pressed against the railing. Qin Feiling came over and slapped him on the face, which shocked him.
"What are you looking at?" Qin Fei Ling asked.
"Oh, my dad said he would come, but it's almost started and he hasn't come yet." Yan Ting looked depressed.
Concubine Qin's Lingliu frowned slightly, she had forgotten that Yan Ting's father also had a relationship with the third elder.
"Since everyone is here, let's get started, Lao San." Lin Juehe said calmly.
Xiao Chengfan rubbed his hands and his face darkened. Suddenly, he walked up to the second elder and whispered a few words in his ear. The second elder raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Chengfan in shock, as if
Ask to be sure you want to do this.
Xiao Chengfan nodded and then returned to his seat.
The second elder hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said loudly: "Everyone, the time has come, but the chef just sent word that there is a dish that has not been prepared yet, so we need to wait first, but..." The second elder coughed.
, continued: "I believe you don't want to just wait. There happen to be some children who want to give their gifts to today's birthday boy. How about we take a look first?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
It stands to reason that Zhulu Academy will not make such low-level mistakes, and giving gifts should generally be done after the banquet. If you give gifts first and then eat, it will feel weird that you can't eat without giving. Of course, there are also
Some people couldn't wait or acted on the spur of the moment. During the day, Fan came early, so he gave it away first. Liu Yuetian was afraid that Xiao Chengfan would not accept it, so he decided to give it away on the spot.
But what happened today was really beyond their expectations.
Xiao Chengfan quickly winked at Yan Ting, and Yan Ting understood. He turned around and whispered to everyone: "Have you prepared any gifts? Please give them to me. If not, I have some earth spirit saliva here.
You take it and send it together."
Everyone nodded and followed Yan Ting downstairs.
"The third child really dares to do anything for this adopted son." Lin Juehe's tone was slightly dissatisfied. He is just a junior. If he is late, he will be late. No one will blame him, but he has to delay so much for a junior.
The time spent with many people seems a bit excessive.
"Excuse me, the third child has a deep affection for his adopted son. He almost looks down upon him. It's not surprising that he can do these things. Besides, doesn't the dean think that this is more interesting? I don't think so.
I want to see what surprises these children can bring." Long Qianye did not take this matter too seriously. In his opinion, Xiao Chengfan never did things without knowing how to do things. Today, he must have wanted Yan Li too much.
We can come and have a meal together.
"He celebrates his birthday today, he is the oldest." Lin Juehe said lightly, picked up the wine glass and poured a glass into his mouth.
"Haha..." Like a peacemaker, Long Qianye toasted another glass of wine to the dean.
