Chapter 338: Changes in the wedding banquet, old friends! (Two in one)
After saying hello, the four of them walked together in the Su Mansion to the banquet place.
Originally Song Changming wanted to ask Jiang He something about Su Qingqing.
After all, he was the one who took Su Qingqing away back then, and he was also acquainted with Su Qingqing’s biological mother fox demon, so he must have known a lot about her.
But on this occasion, he was in the Su family, and there were many people watching, so it was hard for him to ask directly.
"General, you are going over there." After passing several gardens, the servant on the road wanted to lead Song Changming to another banquet hall originally planned.
The Su family organized a grand ceremony, and the banquet hall was divided into several places.
It is natural for people with different status to go to different places.
As a member of the Changsheng Jiang clan and a close friend of Su Fengye, Jiang He naturally wanted to go to the main hall.
Song Changming could only go to the side hall.
But at this moment, before Jiang He could say anything, the steward of the Su family who was leading the way for Jiang He seemed to have a high status and quick eyesight. He grabbed the servant who was leading the way for Song Changming and scolded him a few words.
Then he smiled apologetically at Song Changming and said, "The general met Mr. Jiang and met him again, so he went to the main hall to have a drink together."
When Jiang He heard this, he chuckled and nodded. With this in mind, he nodded to Song Changming and said: "My little friend, let's go together."
"Okay, today I have benefited from Mr., so I can drink better wine." Song Changming didn't care, and was astonished. Yes.
The main hall is naturally the most magnificent, comparable to the main hall of a royal palace.
The golden and jade-carved tables were arranged neatly and orderly. Jiang He had a distinguished status and was directly placed in the top guest position.
Song Changming, Liu Xiangnan, and Zhao Dongming sat on the table behind Jiang He. It was relatively inconspicuous, but it was convenient for them to reunite and drink and talk.
"Haha, Jiang He, we haven't seen you for a long time, how are you?"
Soon after Song Changming sat down, he saw Su Fengye coming quickly and bowed his hands to Jiang He.
"Wandering around the Nine Provinces, you can't compare to Feng Ye's peach blossoms." Jiang He stood up and said with a faint smile.
But his smile seemed to have some unknown meaning.
Hearing this, Su Fengye looked a little unnatural. He sighed softly and said in a low voice: "Jiang He, the burden on the family has fallen, and I have no choice."
"Feng Ye, this explanation If so, you are talking to the wrong person." Jiang He shook his head, his tone still calm.
The voices of the two talking were very soft, and I am afraid that only Song Changming and the three people behind him could barely hear them clearly.
"I know" Su Fengye smiled bitterly, understanding what the other party meant.
"It's just, how could she give me a chance to explain?"
Jiang He didn't say anything more.
"No matter what, I'm very happy that you can come today." Su Fengye picked up the drink on the table and said to Jiang He.
“In this life, I don’t have many close friends. I wasn’t the one who broke off our friendship back then, so I’m going to come.” Jiang He hummed.
"You guys, although you still regard me as a good friend, you are quite dissatisfied with me in your heart," Su Fengye said helplessly.
"That's because of you, I lost a close friend." Jiang He said confidently.
"Okay, okay, it's all my fault."
"."
Song Changming was a little surprised when he listened to the conversation between the two. He had always been mature, Feng Qingyun Jiang He, who was as calm as an old god, changed his usual speaking style when facing Su Fengye.
A little less unpredictable and a little more pyrotechnic.
He and Su Fengye were acquaintances of the same generation, and it was obvious that they had a very close relationship. They spoke without too many scruples, and they were indeed like close friends who had been through a lot.
And even though the two people spoke in a vague way, he could vaguely hear that what they were talking about might have happened back then.
It should be Su Fengye and his fox demon wife who have broken off their friendship.
Jiang He, Su Fengye and the fox demon were all close friends, so he knew what was going on.
Jiang He was dissatisfied with Su Fengye regarding what happened back then.
In today's wedding, he came not reluctantly.
"General Song, I never thought that you and Brother Jiang would actually know each other. Can my knife be used with ease?" Su Fengye suddenly changed the topic and smiled at Song Changming at the back table.
"I haven't thanked you in person for the gift of the treasure, senior. This knife is excellent." Song Changming cupped his hands and said.
"That's good." Su Fengye nodded.
After having a glass of wine with Jiang He, Su Fengye, who had said hello, did not spend much time with him. He was the protagonist of today's wedding, so he naturally had other things to do.
Song Changming also took a sip of his drink.
It has to be said that the Su family’s wine for entertaining guests is truly outstanding.
After drinking it, a warm current surged all over my body, and my energy and spirit were slightly improved, as if it was no ordinary wine.
He also has a winery business, and now it is running smoothly under Song Pingan's management. Several new wines have been released.
But compared with the pot of wine in front of me, it is still far behind.
"Good wine!" Zhao Dongming on the side had already finished half the bottle of wine and was very happy.
Liu Xiangnan seemed to be in a normal mood, and the drink was not as enjoyable as it was.
I saw him suddenly say: "Changming, Qingqing will be so sad when she finds out about this marriage."
He had seen her off all the way and escorted Su Qingqing there. Yuanzhou.
After getting to know each other along the way, he also felt sympathy and compassion for the poor child Su Qingqing.
Like Jiang He, this marriage also made him really uncomfortable.
"Time will dilute everything, including the friendship between close relatives." Song Changming was silent for a while and said with a sigh.
"Having said that." Liu Xiangnan shook his head, suddenly looked at Song Changming and said, "In the future, love her more. After all, apart from his biological father and mother, you are the closest person to her."
"Naturally." Song Changming didn't say much.
He originally wanted to try Su Fengye's tone. If he revealed some information about Su Qingqing in a subtle way, he didn't know how the groom would react.
But through the conversation between Jiang He and Su Fengye just now, he knew that even if he did this, there was a high probability that nothing would be changed.
Although Su Fengye is Su Qingqing's biological father, he is also the core figure of the Su family, shouldering the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the Su family.
Compared with his own small family, he may care more about the honor and disgrace of the Su family.
Because of this, he gave up his original plan directly.
"Sir, is Qingqing okay at her mother's place?" Song Changming asked Jiang He.
Although he had letters back and forth with Su Qingqing, he also wanted to hear what Jiang He had to say.
"It's good. Her mother loves Qingqing as much as her little friend. Don't worry." Jiang He replied.
"That's good." Song Changming nodded, feeling relieved.
As time goes by, the number of guests in the main hall becomes more and more complete.
Everyone is bright and beautiful. Most of them are older than the elderly, and there are very few juniors.
Although Song Changming is now sixty-three, he still has the status of a junior in this main hall.
No wonder Jiang He keeps calling him little friend.
It is estimated that more than 80% of the people present are one or two hundred years old. For people in this longevity family, it is normal for them to live hundreds of years.
Being over sixty is indeed nothing in the human martial arts world. The guests were chatting with each other, and the atmosphere was gradually becoming lively.
During this period, Song Changming glanced around and saw some familiar people.
For example, their commander-in-chief Wang Tianshuang, as well as some other commander-level figures he had met in the army, were also sitting here.
They were not wearing commander-in-chief uniforms, only private clothes. They did not represent the royal power and the military, but the aristocratic families behind them.
Often when a noble family arrives, several core members of the family form a guest group, which gives the Changsheng Su family enough face.
Those military commanders may not even have the highest status in their respective families. They are only about the same as Song Changming. Sitting in the seats at the back, it can be seen that the weight of the guests in the main hall is heavy.
"Mr. Jiang, I never expected you to come so early. I apologize for your inconvenience." Su Shangyu walked into the main hall, walked quickly towards the Jiang River, bowed his hands and said politely.
“It’s okay, there’s plenty of wine, the food is delicious, and it’s very comprehensive.” Jiang He waved his hand.
"Haha, that's good, that's good." Su Shangyu stayed by and chatted with Jiang He.
As for the three people behind, Song Changming, they were not in the eyes of this Su family member.
Song Changming is very leisurely. It is best if no one pays attention to him. Today he only needs to eat good wine and good food.
However, he suddenly felt a scorching gaze falling on him, and he never moved away.
Song Changming raised his eyes to look, and met a pair of cold eyes.
In the corner of the main hall, I noticed that the person from Song Changming was none other than Zhao Zun, a member of the Zhao family's guest group.
Due to the Zhao Linxin incident, a fierce conflict broke out between this person and Song Changming, Xing Tiexin and Yang Zhen a year ago.
In the end, the incident ended with Zhao Zun's apology.
Now that one year has passed, it is obvious that the other party has not completely let go, and still carries the resentment of losing his son to Song Changming and others.
Especially Song Changming who failed to save Zhao Linxin at that time.
After that incident, this was the first time Song Changming saw Zhao Zun. He frowned secretly in his heart, but he didn't take it too seriously.
After all, for more than a year in the past, Zhao Zun was restrained by his family and did not act recklessly again.
Now the other party just glanced at him, and he couldn't do anything.
"The good time has arrived!"
Suddenly a voice came from outside the hall, and the groom, Su Fengye, and the bride, Gu Xinyue, both walked in.
The hall was filled with laughter and congratulations.
Following the wedding procedures, arrangements began.
On the high seat are many elders of the Su family, including the head of the Su family and his mother, who are also Su Fengye’s biological father and mother!
The auras of each of them were powerful. Even if Song Changming sat close to them, it was difficult to estimate the strength of these elders of the Su family. He only felt that they were unfathomable, which made him feel awe-inspiring.
"I'm afraid the marshals in the army are not as good as these immortal old bones!" Song Changming thought to himself.
On weekdays, the Su family doesn't show off, and it's even said that the Su family is declining and showing signs of decline, but they are still an immortal family after all!
This foundation of immortality is still there. God knows how many hundreds of years old monsters are hidden in this huge Su family!
Before the Su family took off the word "immortality" and became an ordinary family, no one would underestimate them.
"It's really eye-opening," Song Changming retracted his gaze and murmured.
“This is the Immortal Family!”
Song Changming even doubted whether it was the royal government that was more powerful in Cuibai Road, or the transcendent Immortal Su family?
When I think of King Cui’s cooperation in dispatching troops and generals before, it was just to help the Su family.
This is really hard to say.
"Then why no one from Fengzhou's Changsheng Gu clan came?" Song Changming said softly, a little puzzled.
Usually when a young lady gets married, her family will always accompany some elders.
But looking at it now, Gu Xinyue came to the Gu family, and there was not even a single maid accompanying him.
“My little friend doesn’t know that this little girl’s life experience is quite miserable. Most of her relatives died early in a disaster. She was the one who was saved by Brother Feng Ye back then. .
Speaking of this marriage, the seeds were planted at that time.
And she is not a direct descendant of the Gu family, but just a collateral descendant. The Gu family should not care much about this marriage, after all, the Su family is now..."
Jiang He replied a few words, and shook his head after speaking. He didn't say any more.
But Song Changming understood the situation to some extent.
Although Gu Xinyue was from the Gu family, she had no status in the family after the accident. br>
If not, it would not be that easy for her to travel thousands of miles to marry Su Fengye.
"I see, this little girl is also a poor person." Liu Xiangnan's mood became a little complicated when he heard this, and he couldn't help but look at the bride again.
"It seems that being in the Changsheng family may not lead to happiness." Song Changming couldn't help but sigh.
“This is natural.” Jiang He squinted his eyes and stroked his beard.
He knows this best.
He has lived for nearly two hundred years and has read many things about the family.
I have watched generations of young heroes rise or fall and die young.
No matter how powerful the family is, it is impossible for every member of the clan to thrive and everything goes smoothly.
Poor people like Gu Xinyue also exist in the Changsheng family.
The wedding ceremony process continues. This aspect is the most cumbersome for aristocratic families. From morning to sunset, this process is uninterrupted.
“Worship the heaven and the earth.”
Until the important moment came, Jiang He, who was drinking at the table, seemed to realize something, and suddenly paused in picking up the wine glass.
The expression that had always been calm and gentle also changed, and finally turned into a sigh.
"Why bother, why bother"
The next moment, a strange wind blew in from outside the house.
It blew over the courtyard wall, the garden corridor, and the pavilions and waterside pavilions.
Finally it blew into the banquet in the main hall.
Many elders of the Su family, including Su Fengye, changed their expressions.
Some martial arts masters with keen senses from other families also felt that something was wrong with this wind.
"Su Fengye, you really have no heart!"
Another gust of wind blew, fluttering the curtains in the main hall, and the candles went out.
Along with this gust of wind, there was also a cold voice that came into the main hall.
Song Changming put down his wine glass, glanced at Jiang He in front of him, and turned to look outside the hall.
In his perception, this gust of wind was mixed with a faint evil spirit.
This is a demonic wind!
There is no doubt that the visitor is a monster.
However, how could the demon clan be so bold as to not only sneak into the main city of Cuibai, but also dare to enter the Changsheng Su family's mansion!
It sounds a bit fanciful.
Looking at Su Fengye who suddenly turned around with a stunned look on his face, Song Changming had some suspicions.
"Who the devil dares to come here to cause trouble!" A commander stood up first and shouted.
"Xue'er." Su Fengye's lips trembled slightly.
Outside the main hall, a beautiful shadow suddenly appeared in the wind.
