C195

Wuwei and the Ghost King were arranged at the entrance to be in charge of receiving invitations. This way, they would know exactly which one was from the Zhongli family.

Wuwei and the Ghost King communicated with each other and read out invitation cards one after another. After that, there would be people who would come specially to welcome them. Wuwei looked at the busy people in the Prince's Mansion and suddenly became excited. He started to shout, "The eldest young master from the Zhongli family has come to offer his blessings as the East Sea and his life as Nanshan."

When the Ghost King opposite him heard this, he immediately left after giving some instructions to the people beside him.

The Zhongli family's people looked at the excited young man in front of them and spoke. "You're not ready yet?"

Wuwei jumped and thought that that person recognized him. However, his expression didn't seem like it. At this moment, the steward of the mansion came over, "Young Master Zhongli, please forgive us for not welcoming you." The butler said enthusiastically.

Only now did Wuwei know that this Zhongli family member was asking about the person who had come to welcome him.

"These are?" Young Master Zhong Li pointed to Wuwei.

"These people that were chosen by the Prince during the martial arts competition don't have much to do, so we'll let them help out here first." The steward explained, "They just arrived not long ago, and the young lord knows that the prince is very polite, so these people usually don't study the rules of the manor." The butler said somewhat unhappily.

"The prince is really good at recruiting talents." Young Master Zhongli's tone sounded a little envious.

Previously, the Ghost King had run over to tell Shangguan Feng which one was from the Zhongli family, but Shangguan Feng didn't have the time right now because he was also helping the king with the arrangement of facts. The Ghost King had searched for a long time and found Zhong Li Yin standing at the side, but he didn't know what he was doing.

"Let me see if I can." The Ghost King had set him up, so he had no face to give to the Ghost King.

"Cut the crap, have you seen the butler? Followed by the butler were the people from the Zhongli family. When they saw Shangguan Feng or Li Lin or Jun Ao, tell them. " The Spirit King was too lazy to waste words with him and directly left.

Zhong Li Yin stopped talking after hearing what the Spirit King said about the Zhongli family's people. As the Zhongli family people got closer, Zhong Li Yin realized that he shouldn't be here, so he turned and left.

When the people from the Zhongli family arrived, they saw Zhong Liyin walk far away, so they asked curiously, "The person just now was also called by the prince?"

The steward looked in that direction and could not remember who lived there. He then said, "It should be. Your Highness has recruited a lot of people this time, so I don't remember much about it." The butler said embarrassedly.

"It's fine." The young master of the Zhongli family said.

When the people of the Zhongli family came, almost all the families that came to congratulate them came. After everyone was done, Zhong Li Yin secretly changed his clothes and pointed in the direction of the Zhongli family when he poured some tea for Shangguan Feng. Shangguan Feng had always felt that those people were different from the others. Now that Zhongli Yin had said they were from the Zhongli family, he naturally wanted to give it a try.

Shangguan Feng stood up, picked up a glass of wine and said: "I am Shangguan Feng, the prince had luckily chosen me in the recruitment process, today I will take this opportunity to have a toast with everyone." With that, he drank it all.

His Royal Highness did not dislike such actions, because his Royal Highness knew that many things were done in such an absurd manner. After that, Shangguan Feng continued, "That should be the young master of the Zhongli family. Young master Zhongli, if you're late, shouldn't you be punished to drink three cups of wine?" Shangguan Fengyin seemed to only be trying to persuade him to drink.

His own birthday banquet had actually come so late, but the Zhongli family and the Zhongli family had some connections, so the prince usually did not make things too difficult for them. However, he did not say it out loud, but felt uncomfortable in his heart, so when he heard Shangguan Feng Lin's words, he felt very happy and agreed: "Disciple Zhong Li, I originally planned to let you go, but it seems like Master Shangguan is unwilling. Since this is the case, why don't you drink three cups?"

"Your Highness, you are absolutely right. We were the ones who came late anyway, so we will punish ourselves with three cups of wine and apologize to Your Highness and everyone else. Your Highness, since I have already drunk this wine, I will send the wedding gift first." The eldest young master of the Zhongli family said, "Everyone, I have been humiliated." After Young Master Zhong Li finished speaking, someone brought something up. It was a flower pot. What was it?

After opening the flower pot, he discovered that it was actually a ginseng. This ginseng had been here for at least several hundred years. Everyone looked at the treasure and thought, "The Zhongli family is truly treacherous. Take it out first and compare all of ours."

Looking at the envious eyes of the surrounding people, the young master of the Zhongli family felt that his actions were too appropriate. When the Duke of Nangong saw him, he had already forgotten about the unhappiness in front of him.

In front of the ginseng, some of the treasures stopped moving. Only one of them stood up and said: "The Zhongli family is indeed rich. We, the small families, naturally cannot compare. We can only give you our own things." After this person finished speaking, someone brought over a tray.

Then, someone closed the door. After that person removed the black cloth from the tray, everyone found that the entire dark room had lit up. It turned out to be a Night Pearl.

Everyone's eyes were focused on that spot.

"Old Man Liang sure is generous. This King cannot afford it." When Nangong Nuo saw the Night Pearl, she was only surprised for a moment before continuing.

"The prince deserves it." Old Man Liang said.

After that, the birthday present didn't have much of an intention to it. It was nothing more than a famous character's painting, gold, silver, or jewelry, and so on. Everyone just laughed it off.

Afterwards, they had a meal together, and then Nangong Nuo said a few words of thanks to everyone. Everyone carefully ate a few bites, and enjoyed the beauty dancing beside them, and occasionally talked with the prince. The atmosphere was also quite harmonious, but later on, the eldest young master of the Zhongli family suddenly said, "Master Shangguan, today is the prince's birthday, what are you going to do about Prince He's birthday?"

The eldest young master of the Zhongli family only made things difficult for Shangguan Feng because he was the first one to present his birthday present to his mother. In his opinion, this Shangguan Feng shouldn't have any treasures.

Shangguan Feng smiled and said: "I'm just a poor scholar, of course I can't take out any treasures, so I've decided to give my gift to the prince in private, so I won't be making a fool of myself here." Shangguan Feng Lin spoke humbly.

"Does Sir Shangguan think that we are not worthy of appreciating your treasures?" The young master of the Zhongli family did not plan on letting him off so easily.
