Chapter 96 Housewarming Banquet

Some people say that things in this world are all unresolved and are rising again and again.

For the people from the Zhu family, I have indeed had a deep understanding of this sentence these days.

For hundreds of years, Zhu Yumao, the youngest master of Tongqiao Realm, had just died and everyone was still sighing. The senior officials were worried about the matter of Tianlang Village.

Another genius from the Zhu family, Zhu Yushou, the youngest honorary elder of the Zhu family, made a request to live in separate residences to the family.

In fact, the treatment of the elders of the Zhu family includes a mansion. Every elder of the Zhu family will contribute to establish another mansion outside the Zhu family.

Although Zhu Yushou is only an honorary elder, he enjoys the treatment of an elder. Therefore, when he was just accepted by the appointment, he sent the deeds and other deeds of the mansion early.

However, when the Zhu family became elders, they were basically very old. They lived in the Zhu family for a lifetime and had long been used to every tree and grass in it.

For family-given mansions, they are either used to maintain outdoor rooms or rent them out. Generally, few people actually move in for a long time.

However, after Zhu Yushou got the mansion, he moved all his parents and all his furniture, and even spread famous posts and held a banquet, and invited prominent figures in Jiangning City to celebrate the joy of moving in the house.

Of course, this is not a big deal. Since the mansion was given to you Zhu Yushou, no one would say anything if you want to move.

However, the people who ran errands to deliver famous posts for Zhu Yushou from house to house really shocked everyone in the Zhu family.

It turned out to be two new guest elders of the Zhu family, the deadly scholar and Dong Tianbao.

You should know that in a martial arts family like the Zhu family, although they are not as red tape as officials and nobles, some rules are still quite particular.

This job of sending famous posts is definitely something that the owner’s most trusted subordinate can do.

Now Zhu Yushou has moved to the new mansion to have a banquet for guests, but the two guest elders who have submitted the invitations are two guest elders.

In the eyes of outsiders, this means that the deadly scholar and Dong Tianbao have been completely loyal to Zhu Yushou.

Zhu Yushou's identity is just an elder who has no honorary right to speak in the Presbyterian Church, but he has received allegiance from two guest elders.

This scene is not only incredible, but also makes all those who receive the invitation feel that the piece of paper that is only 2 taels of weight in their hands is extremely heavy.

But when they went to the banquet, something shocked was still behind.

On the third day of Zhu Yumao's death, a Sijin Mansion in the north of Jiangning City, although not big, but with a quiet environment and elegant layout.

In the living room, dozens of tables of delicious wine and delicacies were already placed, and more than a dozen beautiful maids were passing by.

In the center of the courtyard, a stage was built, and girls were invited from Qifeng Tower to perform to liven up.

The sound of silk and bamboos, the dances are flying, and the guests are full of guests during the meal, and the cups are mixed together, and the atmosphere is very lively.

However, among the guests, many of them were worried and looked at the gate of the house from time to time.

There, the one who was welcoming the host with a passionate look on his face was not the servants in this mansion, but the two veteran guests, Zhang Xiao and Chen Qun, the Zhu family.

After seeing this scene, all the guests who came to the banquet changed slightly. No matter how rebellious you are, they would not dare to look at Zhu Yushou, a young man who looked childish, and would no longer look down on him.

This son has only been rising for a few months, and the Zhu family has a total of six guest elders, but he has already gathered four of them.

Although these four elders do not possess real power, relying solely on the cultivation level of the four people in the Marrow Cleansing Realm, combined, it is a force that cannot be underestimated.

Such skills are really amazing.

In an instant, almost everyone had a glimmer of enlightenment. This was not a simple housewarming banquet, but Zhu Yushou wanted to take this opportunity to openly show his strength.

The power structure within the Zhu family is probably about to go through a huge reshuffle.

But no one can tell whether the final result is good or bad.

In the back hall, Zhu Yushou, under the service of Long'er, put on a white background and a festive robe, asked, "What's going on outside?"

Long'er frowned slightly and said:

"The forces of all parties who received the invitation basically sent people. Within the Zhu family, all the guests and elders were here, but not only did not come, but even no representatives were sent!"

Zhu Yushou sneered slightly in his heart. He grabbed the guest elders and condensed them into a wave. This will naturally make the powerful elders feel threatened.

It is reasonable to give yourself a warning.

However, Zhu Yushou didn't care much about this. Whether it was the real power or the guest elder, he would eventually use it for his own use.

The moon is on the branches, and the night is deep. In the lively atmosphere of fine wine, delicacies, singing, music and dancing, Zhu Yushou's tall figure slowly walked out of the back hall and sat calmly above the main seat.

Although his appearance is not pretty, after his mind has experienced the baptism of Emperor Liuji, his temperament is firm. His eyes open and close, exudes a hint of Shen Xiong, who is different from his peers, and he is steady.

When the guests present met, they all praised him secretly, and the younger generation was terrifying.

Zhu Yushou looked around for a while, smiled and picked up the wine glass, and said aloud:

"Everyone, I am so tired that my friends come to congratulate you. I am so grateful. I will do this cup first!"

"Your best friend, Mr. Shou!"

Everyone picked up their wine glasses and said politely. Although the people present had their own thoughts, they were still willing to give face to the upstart Zhu family who had already become powerful without realizing it.

In the living room, there was a very front position. Beside Cheng Youdao, a beautiful woman looked at the lively scene in front of her and whispered in a low voice:

"Hmph! I think this Zhu Yushou is just a singular person. As soon as he took the position of honorary elder, his tail was raised to the sky. If he was so openly forming a clique, wouldn't he be afraid that the head of the family would be spared?"

This woman was Cheng Youdao's wife, Cheng Yuanzhi's mother. After his beloved son fought with Zhu Yushou, she ended up being paralyzed for life. She naturally felt resentful towards Zhu Yushou.

After hearing her words, Cheng Youdao shook his head and sighed:

"You underestimate Zhu Yushou too much. His behavior today seems to be so proud, but in fact he has grasped the opportunity extremely well, which is admirable!"

The woman frowned slightly and said in confusion: "What does it mean?"

Cheng Youdao sighed: "As you said, if Zhu Yushou wins over the guest officials in this way and cultivates power on weekdays, it will inevitably lead to a tough suppression by the head of the family.

But if the wolf village is about to reappear today, and it is very important to attack the Zhu family, the Zhu family must not have any internal friction.

Even if the head of the family is unwilling to sit down and watch Zhu Yushou be in a big position, he cannot openly suppress it.

Even if the head of the family insists on his own, the other elders of the Elders will definitely not agree.

Even some people with ulterior motives may be happy that there will be a force in the family that will compete with the head of the family. They are good at taking advantage of the situation and gaining some benefits! Look..."

The woman looked along Cheng Youdao's gaze and saw another guest elder of the Zhu family, Nie Li, holding a wine glass, toasting Zhu Yushou in the main seat frequently. Her old face was almost smiling.

Although the elder of the Zhu family has a noble status, he has never held real power because he is a person of a foreign surname.

When attending the Presbyterians, as long as it is not involved in its own interests, it usually does not speak or listen.

Now Zhu Yushou has kneaded the four elders of the guest court, which has greatly increased their popularity, and is obviously about to break the old rules.

This naturally made Cheng Youdao and Nie Li, two people who were away from the core of the Zhu family's power, see the hope of changing their status and being on par with the elders of the Zhu family.

The woman looked at Cheng Youdao's slightly hesitant expression and said in a complicated tone: "Do you want to go too?"

"snort."

Cheng Youdao snorted coldly, shook his head and said helplessly:

"By the gift of the evil son of Yuanzhi, Zhu Yushou may have a grudge against me. Even if I can't help but curry favor with me, I'm afraid I won't really trust me, so why bother to make trouble for myself!"

Just when everyone has their own thoughts, but on the surface it is a time when the atmosphere is warm.

Suddenly, a deep voice came in from outside with an extremely domineering aura, and completely suppressed the sound of the entire banquet:

"My clan brother is so lively here, do you mind asking for a glass of wine for me?"
