Chapter 827: Chen Family Banquet
Shi Luo always remembered Wei Congxi's dream. In the dream, Leshan killed Wei Congxi. Although many changes have occurred in this life, major events still happened. For example, Xiao Shen almost died, Leshan still married to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Shi Luo didn't dare to take risks. Leshan was like a young strongman who could not be beaten to death. She had no idea that she had any contact with the United Chamber of Commerce. What if there was one day.
This is something she has been thinking about for a long time.
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
Wei Congxi didn't ask why Shi Luo did this. He must have guessed that he was so smart.
The old Duke of Huguo is the birth date of the first day of the fifth lunar month. He is seventy years old this year, which is considered a long life. Today, Duke of Huguo's Mansion has risen due to Wei Congxi's relationship, which is different from the past.
Of course, this is what outsiders think, only the people in the Chen family know what they are like.
There is nothing to worry about in the second and third rooms. When Wei Congxi was in trouble, they gave him help within their ability. The old Duke and his wife had nothing to worry about. Wei Congxi was their grandson. Although he had not been able to recognize each other over the years and had not had much contact due to external factors, the old Duke also secretly helped Wei Congxi a lot.
Now I am nervous about the Chen family’s big house, which is now the Duke of the National Guardian Chen Zhongyi.
When Wei Xiao had an accident, he expelled Chen Lanruo from the Chen family despite the opposition of others. Wei Congxi was in trouble. He had no idea that he was even very close to King Jin later, but who would have thought that Wei Congxi could turn the tables? Now they regretted it, so they wanted to reconcile with the Regent's Mansion through the birthday party of the old Duke.
On this day, many people came to the Duke of the Guardian Mansion, and everyone was talking and laughing, very polite.
Uncle Chen and Mrs. Chen were at the door personally, waiting for Wei Congxi.
Not long after, the carriage from the Regent's Mansion arrived. Wei Congxi and Shi Luo got out of the car and saw the Chen family waiting at the door.
"Ziqing is here, your uncle has been muttering for a long time. I am worried about the people, so I come to pick you up in person." Mrs. Chen smiled and looked very gentle and generous.
Mr. Chen looked a little ordinary. Seeing Wei Congxi, he pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Ziqing, please come inside."
Wei Congxi helped Shi Luo up, with an unconcealed gentleness on his face, but he only looked at Shi Luo, and the others did not give any extra eyes.
Mrs. Chen pleased and said, "Ziqing and the princess are so loving."
Wei Congxi suddenly turned his head and looked at Mrs. Chen. When Mrs. Chen saw his eyes, she felt weak.
They were guilty of the incident back then, because they were afraid that Wei Congxi would free up his hands to deal with them. Since Wei Congxi became the regent, Mrs. Chen has never slept peacefully.
Wei Congxi said lukewarmly: "Mrs. Chen is not very familiar with me, so this is not a good name."
The Chen couple's faces were awkward for a moment.
But he soon resumed: "Regent, please come in."
Shi Luo felt that the regent sounded much more grand than the former Northwest King, and she was very satisfied. What if the court officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty had any dissatisfaction?
Those who looked down on Wei Congxi at the beginning were now trying to curry favor with him. The Duke of the National Guard was so awesome before, and he wanted to break up with Wei Congxi, but now he has to come to the door to greet him in person.
Shi Luo smiled, the evil feudal society.
Wei Congxi did not give any extra look to the Chen couple, and joined Shi Luo in the Duke's Mansion.
After seven years, Wei Congxi stepped into this place again and felt dazed.
Seven years ago, he was the little prince of Wei in Lanjing. He still remembers how the Chen family treated him and his mother. Because of the Chen Zhongyi and his wife, he still doesn't know where his mother was buried.
If it weren't for their deception, Chen Lanruo would have guarded Wei Xiao. Even if he died, the couple would have died together.
Wei Congxi smiled at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes became a little cold.
Others don’t understand him, but Shi Luo knows him. He knows Wei Congxi is unhappy.
It is impossible for Wei Congxi to not deal with the Chen family. He is grateful to the others, but he would not forget that the Chen family's big house would not be so easy.
Shi Luo gently grabbed his sleeve, and Wei Congxi whispered: "I'm fine, I'm just a little emotional."
His voice was not low. At least, the Chen couple who were walking beside him heard it. Both of them changed their expressions. When something happened to the Wei family, they wrote a letter to Chen Lanruo saying that the old Duke was sick and tricked her. Chen Lanruo was taken away by the emperor as soon as he came. Others didn't know it, so they naturally knew what the emperor meant.
Later, the emperor also threatened Wei Xiao with Chen Lanruo, otherwise Wei Xiao would not have been defeated so quickly. He went to Lanjing alone and fell into the trap of the emperor. Wei Xiao was not there, so the Wei family let the emperor confiscate the family and destroy the clan.
Even later, after Wei Congxi returned to Lanjing, Chen Zhongyi was worried that he would take revenge and sent a killer to eliminate the roots. Unfortunately, all the people he sent went there and never returned.
The Chen couple was nervous, but Wei Congxi's smile was dyed with ice.
The reason why he has not overturned the Wei family is that he does not want to let go of any miscellaneous family. Chen Zhongyi's room must disappear.
The old Duke and his wife were very kind. They had not seen their grandson for many years. Now when they saw him, they remembered their dead daughter. The old Duke's wife's eyes were red and she waved to Wei Congxi: "Ziqing, come here, grandma, take a good look at you."
Wei Congxi's face, which had always been cold, was a little moved. He walked over and let the old Duke's wife hold his hand.
"Seeing you like this, my grandmother will feel at ease."
There are so many things that are inconvenient to say.
Wei Congxi said: "My grandmother cares about me, and I always know that."
The family recounted the old story. The old Duke and his wife were from the Great Zhou Dynasty. They actually didn't like Shi Luo so much, but Wei Congxi liked him. They treated Shi Luo kindly.
Shi Luo didn't feel anything about the Chen family, so she sat quietly. When someone asked, she answered a few words, and the rest was time. Whether she was the Princess of Nanyue in the past or now the Regent Princess, no one present dared to find her unhappy.
Most of the birthday party of Mr. Chen was held by the Chen family. During the meal, men and women were made separately, separated by a screen.
Chen Shishi has not yet said that she has never been married, and she has never been able to make a living. At that time, she liked Wei Congxi, but her parents looked down upon her, and she was unwilling to marry Wei Congxi to suffer. Now Wei Congxi has become the regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so naturally everything is different.
Chen Shishi's eyes were on Shi Luo. She used to think that Wei Congxi liked this princess, but now it seems that the ingredients used are even greater.
In this way, I still have a chance.
Shi Luo didn't know what Chen Shishi thought, but Shi Luo had nothing to say to a table of people he didn't know.
Mrs. Chen was very enthusiastic and kept chatting with Shi Luo. Her words were very intimate, and Shi Luo responded in unison.
