When the convoy of the Gongsun family traveled along the stone road of Beiguoting, most of the people around Beiguoting had probes to look. Seeing the magnificent children of the ancestral family surrounding a luxurious convoy, such a solemn scene is not seen every day. Several fathers of the ancestral family gathered at the main gate of the manor to wait to greet them, and the guests of the Gongsun family visited in addition to Gongsun Zhi and Chun Yupei, as well as some accompanying relatives, and even seven or eight young people of the same generation as Zu Zhao.

Stopping the carriage in front of the gate, Zu Zhao subconsciously paid attention to the people in the second carriage. The carriage carried three master and servants, a young man who was no more than twelve or thirteen years old, and the other two were personal maids. The little boy was dressed in a brocade pleated dress, and the scarf with his hair tied was also brocade, white and tender, with a little baby fat of one or two points, a pair of big black eyes that seemed very curious about everything, and long eyelashes like a girl.

The little boy saw that Zu Zhao was staring at him, a flush flashed on his white and tender face, and he hurriedly hid behind an older maid. Seeing this, Zu Zhao couldn't help but feel a little funny, and then accompanied the old man Gongsun and Chun Yupei into the front hall with several uncles. The relatives of the Gongsun family and several elders of the ancestral family followed behind, and the subordinates were directly led to the side courtyard to rest.

Zu Zhao's grandfather, Zu Ju, and the three elders of the clan were all waiting in the atrium to greet them at this time, although the rank of these elders was not as high as that of Gongsun, but after all, they were elders with seniority and seniority, and they would not go out of the city and go out to greet each other like young people. The old man Gongsun and Chun Yupei saw the grandparents, and after some polite etiquette, they turned to the middle hall and sat down.

This time, the hospitality was warm, and the inside and outside of the middle hall had been carefully arranged, and all the people with status from the top to the ancestral family were present at the meeting. As the eldest son, Zu Zhao is naturally no exception, and he is still close to the end of the elder's seat. Most of the other juniors who could not sit in the side branch helped on the verandah of the hall first. After the banquet is opened, they can take their seats in the open air in the courtyard.

The whole ancestral village is very lively, just like a grand festival.

On the hall of the middle hall, the old man Gongsun and the ancestor had a brief greeting, and then introduced the relatives who accompanied the trip one by one.

King Gongsun may have only one son under his knees, but unfortunately this son fell into the water and died during the cruise ship last year, and now there are only three women left in the family. The eldest daughter was married at the beginning of the year, and the younger daughter was not yet 10 years old. Most of the young people who visited Xu Wuxian this time are close children of the clan, one is more or less taken care of all the way, and the other is also for the sake of more people, and people along the way in the province misunderstand that the Gongsun family is thin.

Among the younger generations of the Gongsun family, the leader is the Gongsun King or his nephew Sun Lingxian, who is in the year of the weak crown, and has a bit of talent and reputation in Xuansu County.

Zu Zhao paid attention to the little boy, but the strange thing was that he had been introduced, but when he arrived at the little boy, Gongsun Zhi deliberately avoided it, and let the other party go as if he was just a side branch who couldn't get on the stage.

Zu Ju also introduced the people of the ancestral family, especially the eldest grandson Zuzhao.

Chun Yupei said with a smile: "Yesterday in Lingzhi County, I mentioned this young hero, who repelled more than 100 horses with more than 20 horses, which is really happy.

Zu Ju was full of joy, and said with unconcealed enthusiasm: "Zhao'er is just a yellow-mouthed child, he can break the thief in one fell swoop, and the thief dares to violate the realm, how can my Han Tianwei tolerate such a thief!"

Everyone laughed in agreement, and Zu Zhao at the end of the table was full of modesty and bowed his head slightly.

Zu raised his hand and waved, and said: "The distinguished guests have come from afar, and they will have a lunch first, and then wash the dust and chat for rest, and wait until the formal banquet in the evening to get drunk, okay?" This speech is sonorous and powerful, quite showing the majesty of the battlefield in the past.

Naturally, everyone in the Gongsun family had no objections, so the ancestor sent a message to the kitchen and began to have a banquet.

Although Zu Ju claimed that the lunch was not an informal feast, as more than a dozen servants served a variety of drinks and dishes, all the guests of the Gongsun family felt extremely rich. A well-appointed lunch is still so atmospheric, tonight's formal banquet is only afraid that the excitement of rare beasts is indispensable, even if it is the personal servant of a county guard, he is now all in his heart, which shows that the ancestral family is rich and generous.

After a while, the atmosphere gradually thickened, and the main hall of the central hall was immediately a scene of staggered and drumming and flutes.

The ancestors and the guests of the grandson's family pushed each other's glasses and drank each other's wine, and many of the estrangements of the first meeting quickly faded away under the impact of wine and food.

After a round of drinking, Gongsun Zhi was slightly drunk, and said with a smile: "Zizheng Gong is hospitable, and the old man is grateful." Today, at the first meeting of the eldest prince outside the city, he admired the great prince's civil and military talents, which can really be said to be better than the blue. Zu

Ju was in a good mood, and he laughed for a while when he heard Gongsun Zhi's words. He knew that Gongsun Zhi was very satisfied with his eldest grandson, and the implication was that he was very optimistic about the marriage between his ancestral family and Gongsun family. Taking a breath, he stroked his beard and said, "Although this son has lost his father since he was a child, he is conscious and diligent in learning, which really makes people worry less. Not long ago, Chen Xianjun of this county made a special trip, saying that he was willing to be named in the county of this year, and in a few days he would go to the elders of the county in the church.

Several elders of the Gongsun family, including Chun Yupei, praised each other. Gongsun Zhi sighed in amazement: "The eldest prince was recommended by the county at a young age, and this kind of behavior should become a good story.

Chun Yupei echoed and smiled: "In my opinion, but to make Longcheng Feijiang, do not teach Hu Ma to Yinshan, such heroic words can also be comparable to the world's heroic literature, and it will be passed on for centuries."

Zu Zhao still didn't speak, maintaining a low-key and humble smile.

After the elders laughed, the oldest young man in the guest table, Gongsun Lingxian, suddenly said aloud: "But make Longcheng Feijun, don't teach Hu Ma to do Yin Mountain, these two sentences are really magnificent, and they are also neat and symmetrical, it sounds as if it is not an independent chapter, but I don't know if there is a preface and follow-up to the ancestor Gongzi." Gongsun

Lingxian was polite and bookish, and his words revealed a bit of ridicule and difficulty.

The atmosphere in the hall changed slightly, and Gongsun Zhi subconsciously glared at Gongsun Lingxian. The elders of the ancestral family are still in a pleasant color, and the power is just a momentary mood among the young people.

Zu Zhao didn't plan to interject more at the luncheon, he just followed the elders and casually echoed two sentences, who knew that the guests of the same generation of the Gongsun family would be so interested, but they wanted to involve themselves. "But make the dragon city fly, don't teach Hu Ma to do Yin Mountain" is a seven-word quatrain, and there are naturally two other poems in front of it. However, the poetic style of the seven-character quatrain is not popular at the moment, so he does not want to add to it.

So, he smiled lightly and said: "Brother laughs, these two sentences are just a feeling in the next moment, but they are just willful words, and I definitely don't dare to call the article in vain."

Gongsun Ling first picked up the wine glass, took a sip slowly, and said with a plausible smile: "The ancestor is too humble." I often hear people say that the ancestor Gongzi can write and martial arts, and it is well known to the people who fought off the thieves with bravery, why not let Long Chengfei make this bold statement perfect, and truly achieve a hand-me-down article, wouldn't it be more deserved? If

the previous words were only momentary, then the remarks at this moment are enough to reveal a smell of gunpowder.

Zu Ju and several other grandparents' faces gradually changed, and they were very unhappy with Gongsun Lingxian's rampant words. Anyway, Zu Zhao is humble and courteous, and has fulfilled the friendship of the landlord, even if this grandson is a guest from afar, he should have the etiquette of a guest, how can he be so ignorant and noisy? The gathering of the two families this time is the top priority of the marriage of the two major gates, and the intention is nothing more than to merge the power of the two families in the future and further establish the power in Youzhou. The business has not yet been discussed, but the rift of discord has been revealed, which is really chilling.

Gongsun Zhi was drunk, and scolded Gongsun Lingxian sharply: "Wen Jun, presumptuous.

He turned to Zu Zhao again, and said kindly: "Your foolish brother drinks less on weekdays, but today he is happy, and he drinks a little more, so he is talking nonsense like this, don't take it to heart." Zu

Zhao knew that this son-in-law of the Gongsun family was a typical scholar, he was young and vigorous, and there were always many things in his eyes. Since the other party must provoke the incident, he simply accompanies him to the end, but he wants to see how much ink is in this son's stomach. He smiled peacefully as always, and said unhurriedly: "Since Brother Wen Jun is quite interested in the poems and sentences, and he is willing to sincerely ask his brother for advice, one can meet friends with the text, and the other can also chat for fun." I don't know if Ah Gong, Mr. Gongsun and the elders will agree.

Gongsun Ling saw that Zu Zhao was actually challenging him, and immediately made up his mind in his heart, even if the elders present did not allow it, he would inevitably have to separate a superior with Zu Zhao to see what this "boasted" young man should be capable of.

Gongsun Zhi and Chun Yupei glanced at each other, and then turned to look at the ancestor of the upper seat.

Zu Ju's expression calmed down for a while, and gradually smiled, pushing the cup and saying, "It's very good that young people have this Yaxing." This short sentence was obviously a tacit approval of Zu Zhao's proposal.

The liveliness in the hall was slightly reduced, and many people turned their attention to Zu Zhao and Gongsun Lingxian.
