C229 Line up for the Congratulatory Gift

Third Yaen looked embarrassed.    

    

After thinking for a while, he said, "Young master, everyone in the world knows that your relationship with that Zhao Wuji is extremely bad. It has reached a point where life and death are mutually beneficial to each other. If Zhao Wuji did this, it would be a very normal thing, but..."    

    

Sighing, Third Yaen continued, "I have experienced a lot of things. Whenever something like this is obvious, it is often not that simple behind the scenes. The more something like this should be done, the more different the facts are."    

    

Xiao Yun was silent for a long time. He nodded slightly and said, "Then tell me, who else could it be other than Zhao Wuji?"    

    

"This..." Third Yaen shook his head with a bitter smile. "I don't know about this little man. He has used all kinds of means. Unfortunately, he insisted that it was Zhao Wuji who sent him. Logically speaking, it should not be wrong."    

    

Xiao Yun sighed and said, "That is to say, if they were really not sent by Zhao Wuji, it means that these guys are like men of sacrifice. Even if they were faced with the cruelest punishment, they wouldn't tell the truth. Any power that has such death knights will certainly be very difficult to deal with. Is that right? "    

    

Third Yaen said, "Young master is indeed wise and wise. The name of Saint Grade is indeed true. This is exactly what I mean."    

    

" Hehe, as expected, those who want to scheme against me are not ordinary people. "    

    

Xiao Yun shook his head helplessly. Then, he suddenly said, "Oh right, tomorrow's gift for Prime Minister Qiu has not been decided. What do you think... if I write a calligraphy piece and send it over?"    

    

Third Yaen suddenly rushed to the side and reacted quickly. He lifted a table and said softly, "Young master, I will grind it for you."    

    

The same question, Qing'er and Third Yaen had two completely different answers.    

    

Which one was better?    

    

Xiao Yun could not tell for a moment.    

    

...    

    

He let go of his curiosity about Qing Gong for the time being.    

    

Before he went to sleep, he also asked Qing'er, only then did he know the so-called Qing Gong in this world. It was just some methods to cross over, such as climbing the wall. The use of the hook, how to step on tiles on the roof. It could also be guaranteed that there was no sound... It was just a coincidence among the bandits.    

    

It had nothing to do with what Xiao Yun had imagined.    

    

The next morning, they set off. After a simple meal, they got into the carriage and arrived at the entrance of Qiu Manor.    

    

At this moment, there were countless guests outside the door.    

    

Various carriages surrounded the two sides of the road, making it so that not even a drop of water could pass through.    

    

Among them, the ones that took up the majority were all kinds of gifts.    

    

Some of the gifts piled up the entire carriage, and there were even a few of them. The steward respectfully held up the gift list and stood there in a line.    

    

At the main entrance, there was only one seat and two accounts.    

    

One of them corresponded to the gift list, and the other quickly wrote down a copy of the other party's gift list.    

    

This seemed a bit redundant.    

    

Originally, this process was to take one photo at a time. When they followed the script and found the things recorded in the gift list, they would write a line and cut off one. Then, they would immediately make up the copy. It could be said that it was completely foolproof.    

    

However, it was unnecessary to put it at Prime Minister Qiu's birthday banquet.    

    

Who would deceive Prime Minister Qiu on the gifts? Wasn't that looking for an illness? It was better not to give a gift than to give a gift as a punishment.    

    

It was precisely because of this futile effort that the line of gifts was directly lined up to the next street.    

    

Qing'er went forward and asked. She discovered that the person in front of the line had already been queuing here for three days! If the line were to reach Xiao Yun, it would probably take another three days.    

    

The time of the birthday banquet had already passed!    

    

"Such a big style."    

    

Xiao Yun sneered and squinted his eyes at the long line of people at the door.    

    

Then he said, "I'm afraid this is the imposing manner of one person above ten thousand people. I wonder if Prime Minister Qiu can bear it. He also did not know what these officials were thinking. Under the feet of the Son of Heaven, is he going to expose himself? If the officials on one side were not greedy, their salary and salary would only be enough to cover the expenses of the family. Where would the money come from to buy all the treasures in the carriage? Wasn't this putting the word 'corruption' on his head? Are you all crazy?"    

    

He didn't quite understand.    

    

After all, the king of Great Qin Country, the high and mighty emperor, had been thrifty all his life, wanting to snatch grapes from Xiao Yun to satisfy his craving.    

    

But the officials below actually dared to do such a thing openly?    

    

As the saying goes, the upper hand takes effect, but the upper hand takes the lower hand. If that was the case, it was understandable. But if the emperor was really thrifty, then the lower half should also be thrifty.    

    

Just looking at the standard of the gifts, it was much more extravagant than His Majesty's birthday!    

    

Any one of them would probably be worthy of the phrase "birthday program."    

    

Qing'er heard Xiao Yun's words and sighed. "Young Master, you are still thinking about this kind of thing? The most troublesome thing now is how to send our gifts over. This Elder Qiu really is. How good would it be if I told him earlier? It wasn't just a day earlier, but he didn't care about the young master's gifts. But if he didn't give enough, he wouldn't have lost the Qiu family. He would lose face for the Xiao family... This old man is giving us trouble for no reason!"    

    

As he spoke, he was fuming with anger.    

    

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, then he did not know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Actually, this can't all be blamed on Prime Minister Qiu. Thinking about it carefully, Prime Minister Qiu was stunned for a moment, then he did not know whether to laugh or cry. I'm afraid that everyone in the world knows about the 80th birthday. Some people wished they could start preparing gifts a year ago, but in the end, the Xiao family didn't do anything. I'm afraid that Prime Minister Qiu thinks that we might have forgotten about it. That's why he lowered his attitude and sent the invitation."    

    

Speaking up to this point, he raised his head to look at Qing'er and smiled. "Every family needs a few stewards. Not only do they need to take care of their own family, but they also need to take care of their own family. There are also the movements of the wind and grass in the capital, such as Prime Minister Qiu's birthday. You have to know in advance and make arrangements in advance. Since you don't like to have someone in charge in our courtyard, you have to be able to handle it. At least you have to know about this kind of thing, right? "    

    

It could not be said to be blaming, but in fact, that was the reason.    

    

Qing'er's face was not red but her heart did not beat. She said, "Young Master, we were all in the prison before. I am very satisfied that I can take care of you well."    

    

"You..."    

    

Xiao Yun was so angry that he could not bear it. He rolled his eyes for a long time, but he could not do anything to Qing'er.    

    

This guy had been with him the longest, and he had also grasped Xiao Yun's character. He knew that whatever it was, he had to shut up, and he also knew that whatever it was, he could do whatever he wanted.    

    

"Aiya, young master, let's think about how to give gifts. We are all here, and many of us have seen it. If we turn around and go back, we will definitely lose face."    

    

Qing'er was anxious.    

    

"I really did not expect you to be a person who cares about face." Xiao Yun laughed loudly and got off the carriage. He strode forward and said loudly, "Who do you think your young master is? We are here to give gifts, and we still need to line up?"    

    

After he said that, he pointed forward and said with a smile, "Qing'er, clear the way for your young master!"    

    

Qing'er's eyes lit up and she chuckled. She pulled out her saber and ran forward while shouting loudly, "All of you, move aside! Young master of Xiao family, Xiao Yun is congratulating Prime Minister Qiu on his birthday. Hurry up and move aside! !”    

    

Everyone did not care about her tall figure. They did not care about what she shouted, but the saber in her hand was really fierce!    

    

A few of the people who retreated a little slowly were actually directly cut in their clothes. They were so scared that they hurriedly scattered and really immediately made a path.    

    

Xiao Yun held a wooden box and walked straight to the front, where the table was at the door.    

    

With a bang, he slammed the box hard on the table. The two people who were paying the bill were so scared that they shivered.    

    

One of them immediately shouted, "Who is it? Are you courting death? How dare you behave atrociously in front of the main entrance of the Qiu family? You don't want to live anymore? "    

    

After saying that, he jumped up and waved the brush and ink in his hand. A few drops splashed onto Xiao Yun's sleeve.    

    

Xiao Yun was stunned.    

    

Looking at this guy who jumped higher than when he was sitting, he suddenly kicked him!    

    

With a bang, the man was jumping. This kick hit his chest, sending him flying. He crashed into the porch, his nose crooked and his mouth slanted. Clearly, he had fainted.    

    

This time, it shocked everyone so much that they immediately stopped making any sounds.    

    

The originally noisy street, which was completely blocked, was now so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard!
