For the current scene, Qian Shanxue mobilized almost all his resources. At this time, Tiangu Peak was extremely luxurious. Almost all the disciples of Zangjin Pavilion came here, as well as some disciples of Zangxiu Pavilion and Zangqing Pavilion. They were invited one after another.
But there were too many people, and Qian Shanxue's lobby mansion could not accommodate so many people, so the location was changed to Guangyuntai on Tiangu Peak.
This place was originally an abandoned stone platform on a cliff, but in order to receive Zhao Feiyue and show his unparalleled talents to everyone here, Qian Shanxue mobilized almost all his manpower to clean up this stone platform into a flat square, spending a lot of money There was countless money, and just the granite to build the stage, which was urgently transported from nearby towns, cost tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Not to mention the thick velvet carpet paved on the entire stage and the red carpet paved on the stone steps. These luxury goods shipped from far away countries. The former sells for as much as one thousand taels of silver per meter, although the latter is not as expensive as The former can also be as much as one hundred taels per meter.
And ten taels of silver are enough to keep a poor family alive for a month!
Although the price of the red carpet is much lower than that of the pile carpet, its cost is dozens of times that of the pile carpet because it covers almost the entire platform and the entire stone steps.
The velvet carpet on the stage, stepping on it with bare feet, feels like stepping on clouds, and everyone who steps on the red carpet feels that their feet will sink in, like stepping on the beach, making people instantly in awe of Qianshanxue's financial resources.
Although Qian Shanxue slandered the senior sister in every possible way and was secretly disgusted with her, he still invited the senior sister to the chief position on the left and left the right position vacant.
Except for the vacant seat, all the guest seats were full. Qian Shanxue sent out invitations in such a grand manner. All the invited people from Lingshan Sect were honored to come, including the temporary acting head Kong Yunzhen. He sat in the second seat on the right. Although he had a high status, he was not as good as Jiu Tianxian Zhao Feiyue.
After the butler finished singing the name, Zhao Feiyue's figure appeared on the steps, coming one step at a time, as if she had calculated the time and pinched it carefully before she appeared in front of everyone.
And the moment Zhao Feiyue stepped onto the platform, the musicians on both sides of the platform started playing in unison!
The first thing that sounded was a three-meter-long silver trumpet. The mouth of this silver trumpet was as small as a teacup and the exit was as big as a gong. It was blown by burly and strong men. Each of these men was over 1.8 meters tall. Although It was winter, but all of them had their clothes on, revealing half of their strong bodies.
Their cheeks were bulging high, and each of them used all their strength to blow the silver horn. However, its sound was as low as the roar of a bull, and when ten silver horns were blown, the sound really shook the sky and the mountains. The ground on the stage was shaking, and everyone felt that their internal organs were shaking from the sound!
Daqi has a strict hierarchy. Whether it is jade plaques, official symbols or drums and horns like this, there are strict regulations on anything that can represent status.
Ordinary people are not qualified to use such horns. Only nobles above the hereditary count and warriors above the military rank are qualified to use them. Those who enjoy them must be relatives of the emperor or have made great contributions to the court. people, or foreign envoys or important ministers.
In Da Qi, copper, silver, and gold were used to express the status of the recipient. Copper was enjoyed by important ministers for their merits, silver was enjoyed by relatives of the emperor, and gold was enjoyed by the emperor or important ministers from foreign countries.
When Zhao Feiyue appeared, the silver horns sounded in unison, and the trumpets played in unison at the same time. The sharp trumpet sound and the deep horn sound were mixed together to create a majestic and solemn atmosphere, which made people look awe-inspiring unconsciously.
Qian Shanxue was dressed in fine attire, only wearing the badge of the Hidden Brocade Pavilion on his chest. He stood with his hands down, waiting for his distinguished guests like a territorial king. His eyes were full of joy and scrutiny, as if he were looking at a future bride.
But Qian Shanxue didn't notice that Zhao Feiyue's eyes quickly glanced around. She paused on the senior sister's body for a moment, and then landed on Qian Shanxue, but there was strong hatred hidden in her eyes.
At this time, Zhao Feiyue was wearing a white tulle, revealing only a pair of eyes. Just looking at these eyes, she felt that they were extremely beautiful, especially the outline of her face could be vaguely seen through the tulle, which was beautiful and attractive, doubling the mystery.
Qian Shanxue waited for Zhao Feiyue's arrival with great satisfaction. He bowed respectfully and said: "Qian Shanxue, the hereditary earl of Da Qi, is here to welcome His Highness!"
He was talking at this end, and someone beside him was whispering to each other in a low voice amidst the sound of the horn.
"Hey, why isn't Senior Brother Qian Shanxue wearing the monk uniform of our Lingshan Sect?"
"Tsk, why don't you even think about it? You don't want to be with us!"
"What's so shameful about the monks' uniforms in our Hidden Brocade Pavilion?"
"There is no shame in Hidden Brocade Pavilion, but it is very shameful to be with you!"
"Why am I so embarrassed? My father is a fourth-rank official in the imperial court, so why am I so embarrassed!"
"A mere fourth-grade official dares to make such a noise? Then, am I, the descendant of a second-grade official, going to heaven? Do you know where Senior Brother Qian Shanxue came from? He has been a minister for generations, and generations of first-grade officials in his family have been hereditary since he was born. Earl! Can you compete?"
"I… "
"But Zhao Feiyue is said to be the most beautiful woman in the world. Why is he wearing a veil?"
"Nonsense, since she is the most beautiful woman in the world, naturally she cannot be looked at casually."
Qian Shanxue did not wear the clothes of a cultivator, but was practicing court etiquette. This outrageous move made the people in Zangjin Pavilion whisper to each other. Kong Yunzhen, the acting head, frowned and stared at Qian Shanxue displeased.
After Qian Shanxue invited Zhao Feiyue to the right-hand seat, he did not sit down. Instead, he stood in the field without saying a word, smiling and clapping his hands.
Then, he turned around and went to the backcourt, disappearing behind a row of long and tall screens.
Just when everyone was suspicious, they saw the musicians, drummers, and dancers come out from behind the screen, each holding a musical instrument, and entered the venue. Then, under the stone steps, the maids filed in carrying various dinner plates. , the first round is cold dishes, followed by fine wines and fruit snacks from various places.
Many nobles in the field were well-informed, but they still sighed in admiration: "After all, it's snow on a thousand mountains... To be able to create such a scene in such a short period of time, and the energy mobilized by such manpower and material resources, is simply terrifying. !”
After Zhao Feiyue sat down in his seat, although the people next to him were interested in chatting, Zhao Feiyue looked at his nose and his heart with a arrogant attitude. He even ignored the fine wine and fruits in front of the table. Naturally, they were all timid. Yu stepped forward.
However, Zhao Feiyue sensed a gaze and raised her head to take a look, only to see the senior sister staring at her with piercing eyes. Zhao Feiyue twitched the corner of her mouth slightly, like a smile, but her eyes were sharp and seemed to be provoking.
She slowly raised the wine glass in her hand and raised it towards the senior sister.
The senior sister sensed Zhao Feiyue's gaze and the unkind meaning of the visitor. She smiled faintly and raised her glass. The two stared at each other and drank the wine in one gulp. It seemed that the friendship ended there!
At the same time, Li Chengfeng stepped towards Wentian Mountain, but what no one noticed was that a shadow flowed quickly on the ground. It came quickly like a black snake crawling on the ground. Li Chengfeng's residence appeared in a remote and uninhabited place.
This black shadow rose slowly, like a thick black mist, and slowly condensed into a human form, and then turned into a woman wearing scales and two scars on the left and right sides of her cheeks.
It's Zhou Ling!
