On the night of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the entire imperial capital was brightly lit.
The Fu Family Hall meeting will be held in the annex building of the Fu Family Manor, which covers an area comparable to two football fields.
Since the first two heads of the family, this place has been designated as the place where the Fu Family Hall Meeting will be held.
The entire Fu family manor is terrifyingly large. In order not to disturb the purity of the Fu family, vehicles entering and exiting the Fu family are determined to enter through the side door.
A pure natural lake is completely separated from it, and the entire area opposite is filled with brightly lit castles and villas.
Starting at seven o'clock in the evening, rows of top-notch luxury cars drove into the manor from the exclusive road.
The bright lights on the shore are reflected on the calm lake, making the waves sparkling.
Although the annex building where the church meeting is held is not as good as the main building, it is still magnificent from the outside, a grand building from the medieval century.
The four-story building covers an area larger than some ordinary gymnasiums in the imperial capital.
The two Roman columns with a diameter of more than five meters at the entrance are the work of the most famous relief artist in the entire continent and are valuable.
This is also the first time the Fu family has held a hall meeting after Fu Yuan's death. After eighteen years, the Fu family once again welcomed the heads of each family.
The other families have their current heads bringing their adult sons or daughters, as do the four major families in the capital.
Ning Yeqing came here with his son Ning Muzhang, and the Yun family included the Yun Sheng brothers. However, the Xi family was a bit special, with only Mo Ran, the current chairman of the family.
He is not yet married, and he has just taken over the position of head of the family from his father for three years. Since handing over the position of head of the family, the Xi family and his wife have also been traveling and no longer care about the affairs of the Xi family.
Xi Moran was happy and relaxed alone.
As for the Li family, the servant in front of the door came forward and saw the car door opened, and Li Langhua, who was wearing elegant clothes, came down.
But there was not just one person around, but two.
They are Wen Li and Li Li.
News spread very quickly among the families. The eldest lady of the Li family was found. This was known to everyone.
Unlike other daughters of aristocratic families who are wandering around in such a miserable state, this eldest lady of the Li family is related to Fu Yuxiu, who may become the head of the Fu family today.
Li Langhua originally wanted to bring Wen Li over when he went out. After all, what happened tonight involved Fu Yuxiu.
But thinking about the path Li Li was going to take in the future, Li Langhua thought about it and came over with his two granddaughters.
There were people coming and going around, and Li Li had never been to such an occasion before. Everyone kept a straight face and said nothing.
They are also the heads of various families. If they don't speak, they will scare people to death. As expected, they are all the overlords of one party.
The aura on his body is different.
"Wen Li, have you been to Fu's house several times?" Li Li stared at the brightly lit castle opposite and spoke.
Wen Li glanced at the other side and responded, finally agreeing.
"What's that over there? It's sparkly. It's so beautiful."
Li Li pointed to the colorful crystal reflected in the light in front of the left side. That thing was really dazzling.
"There are rumors in the imperial capital that the young master has built a glorious crystal palace in Fu's Manor. All the crystals are sent directly from the place of origin and are cut in one piece without any pure impurities." Li Langhua suddenly explained.
Li Li followed Li Langhua's gaze and asked, "Is it made of pure crystal?"
That's so beautiful.
"There are countless crystals in the entire continent here. I heard that when the young master held his engagement ceremony, he once asked to use the Crystal Palace to hold it, but he was flatly rejected."
These are no longer news in the imperial capital and the Fu family.
The most important thing among them is that this Crystal Palace was built by Fu Yuxiu for his beloved girl.
She refused Fu Yuheng's request because she didn't want anyone to get involved in her things.
"Young Master has treated you with care." Li Langhua looked at Wen Li and said happily.
Wen Li does not deny this. Fu Yuxiu built this Crystal Palace, which was what she said back then.
To her, he had done everything down to the smallest detail.
"That's great." Li Li said with envy.
"Yun Xiao is not good to you. You are always obedient." Li Langhua glanced at his granddaughter.
Li Li shook her head with a smile, a dark look in her eyes. What she envied was that Wen Li could be with the person she liked.
She could see that Wen Li really liked the young master.
It's a pity that she and Wen Li are destined to be different.
"Master Li, you can go in." Rover reminded from the side.
Li Langhua came in with his two granddaughters. The meeting started at eight o'clock. The reason why they came an hour early was because they didn't want Wen Li to become the target of public criticism.
Li Li's twin sister is already enough to attract attention, coupled with the scandal with the young master.
She didn't want to be late and the eyes of these people lingering on Wen Li were different.
The huge hall was brightly lit, with two nanmu chairs placed at the top, which was extremely majestic.
The heads of each family go down, starting from the position closest to the head of the family to the main door, and the seats are divided according to family power.
The four major families in the imperial capital are naturally in the first row.
Li Li helped Li Langhua sit down and looked around. At this time, many people were coming one after another, but it seemed that there were not many women, only a handful.
"Grandma, you should actually bring your second uncle here." Li Li whispered.
Such an occasion was not suitable for her, even though she knew what grandma meant.
But the second uncle will still be sad. "Your second uncle is still angry with grandma. It will be better when the anger passes." Li Langhua's eyebrows were a bit tired.
The past few days were not enough for Li Yuanzhi to recover.
The Yun brothers came over. The two families happened to be connected together and saw the two sisters behind Li Langhua.
"Master Li, you came very early." Yun Sheng greeted with a smile.
Li Langhua and Yun Sheng started chatting, but Yun Xiao walked over to Li Li to accompany her.
As a result, Wen Li was free.
A large row of family heads sitting behind them all knew the Yunli family, so they naturally noticed Wen Li beside Li Langhua.
"I heard that the girl is the twin sister of the second young lady of the Li family?"
"The facial features are somewhat similar, but the rumor I have heard the most is that the relationship between the eldest lady recovered by the Li family and the young master is not simple."
Several people smiled unusually as they spoke.
What happened in Beicheng caused quite a shock in the Fu family. The Mo and Li families were all wiped out, and people sent by the Fu family took over Beicheng.
The reasons behind this are naturally clear.
It's just that everyone said that when the young master went to Beicheng, he took a very beautiful girl with him.
It was also rumored that a large part of the reason why the Li family was executed was because of that woman.
The woman who was taken by the young master.
In addition, the Crystal Palace that everyone can see when entering Fu's manor has clearly revealed to everyone how important she is to Fu Yuxiu.
It can be said to be a thousand pampers.
"She looks really good. No wonder the head of the Li family is bringing her two granddaughters with her this time. But what I'm curious about is who will give her the position of head of the family."
"There's no need to guess. She can bring two of them with her. One is to marry and consolidate her power, and the other must be to inherit the family business."
Speaking of which, it was quite difficult for the Li family. Li Langhua himself had given birth to two sons, but all of them were granddaughters.
In the end, the position of the head of the family will definitely be passed on to the girl. Among the four major families, the Li family is the weakest at the moment.
It can't be said that it was Li Langhua's fault, but he couldn't escape either.
If it continues like this, I'm afraid there won't be many good days left.
"The Li family's wishful thinking is really good. Although they knew the rules of the Fu family, they still pushed their daughter out. If this can really happen with the young master, the Li family will really be in full swing in the future. .”
Whispers from behind can reach the ears of those in front.
Li Langhua's expression remained unchanged and unmoved from beginning to end.
If you can sit in the position of the head of the family, you can naturally listen to everything.
Fu Yuheng took Ilia with him when he entered. According to the rules, Ilia is already his fiancée, so she can naturally participate in today's occasion.
From the moment the two entered the door, everyone's eyes were on them.
"It's strange that the young master can bring Miss Ilia here with him, but the only lady of the Li family who has been rumored to have an affair with the young master in so many years came with the head of the Li family."
Isn't this too strange
In the earliest days of the Fu Family Hall, women were not allowed to enter at all. However, as more and more women gradually succeeded to the position of head of the family, this rule was changed.
Especially people from the Fu family can bring their wives and dependents.
This is a special rule for the Fu family.
"What are you talking about? Miss Illya is engaged to the eldest son. She is a legitimate fiancée. She will naturally be his wife in the future. The one from the Li family..."
The man paused for a moment as he spoke. Everyone knew in their hearts that a person with no name or status would definitely not be qualified to enter unless the head of the Li family brought him here.
Illya couldn't help but straighten her spine when she heard the voices of people discussing around her.
Looking at Wen Li again, his eyes were full of disdain.
How could she and this woman be the same
She is of noble birth, and will soon be the mistress of the Fu family. As for this woman, wait until she becomes the mistress of the Fu family.
There is plenty of good fruit for her to eat.
After hearing what these people said, Li Li turned around and glared at them fiercely. What they were saying was nonsense.
Their reputation is not justified.
The young master is so kind to Wen Li, how come he has become so unfair to them
Li Langhua looked at the manic Li Li next to him, and then at the man beside him who was lowering his head and stroking the bracelet on his hand.
Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters.
These people also came from outside the imperial capital. Although they were the overlords of one party, their horizons were too far.
The time is getting closer and closer, and these people are coming more and more neatly.
When the time was up, Rover called out at the door over there.
"The boss is here..."
Everyone who was sitting neatly on the chairs all stood up and looked in the direction of the door.
Outside the open door, Fu Dingfeng was helped into the hall by Fu Zhining.
