C554 The Invitation of the Jade Peony
"Peony Pavilion?" Xiao Ge was surprised. He actually knew a little about Peony Pavilion. In the capital, Peony Pavilion was very famous. It was not a place to sell peony flowers. However, the Peony Pavilion had the most expensive peony flower in the capital, even in the whole world. Yu Mudan!0
Yu Mudan of the Seven Color Flower was the master of the Peony Pavilion!
"What's the matter?" Xiao Ge looked at the couple who called themselves Song Ping and Song Lan and asked.
"Mr. Xiao Ge, Miss Soong Ying, my Miss will hold a banquet in Peony Pavilion tonight at seven o'clock. The young lady said that if the two of you can attend the banquet, she will feel honored. Because young lady is preparing for the banquet and is unable to come personally, we represent young lady. We respectfully invite the two of you to the banquet." Song Ping and Song Lan spoke at the same time. Then, they bowed together and respectfully handed over an invitation.
Xiao Ge took the invitation card and opened it to take a look. Sure enough, it was an invitation card to invite him and Soong Ying to the banquet in Peony Pavilion. This gave him a strange feeling. He really didn't expect this. That Yu Mudan actually took the initiative to invite him.
"Tell your young miss that if we are free tonight, we will go." Xiao Ge thought for a while and said.
In fact, Xiao Ge had always been interested in Yu Mudan. He was interested in the entire Seven Color Flower. However, according to his original plan... He would not look for Yu Mudan now. At least, he would wait until the Battle of the Dragon Sword was over. It was not too late to look for that Yu Mudan. However... Now that Yu Mudan had taken the initiative to find him, there was no need for him to wait for the future.
"Alright, then we will welcome the two of you in Peony Pavilion." The two of them bowed again, "We will take our leave first."
Song Ping and Song Lan quickly turned around and got into the car. They left quickly. During the whole process, they were polite and polite, and they didn't drag things out. They showed quite a good quality.
Xiao Ge conveniently stuffed the invitation into the bracelet, then hugged Soong Ying and continued forward. "The plan is the same. Let's eat first and then talk later."
The second battle of the Dragon Sword Battle did not come too soon. Xiao Ge and Soong Ying went to have lunch together. Then they wandered around the capital for a long time. The whole afternoon. The two of them were not disturbed by anyone, and they were living a comfortable life.
The time quickly reached six o'clock, and Xiao Ge and Soong Ying finally stopped wandering around. Instead, they took a taxi and went to the Peony Pavilion to attend the banquet.
The Peony Pavilion was actually just a private title for ordinary people. The place where the Peony Pavilion was located was actually an independent building. The name was the Peony Building. Of course, although it was called a building, in fact, it was only a three-story building.
As most people knew, Peony Pavilion did not provide peony sales and ornamental business. In fact, the Peony Pavilion was a place that sold all kinds of jade artifacts. This place only sold jade artifacts. Of course, many people also knew about it. Here, one could actually see the most beautiful peony flower. It was also the famous Yu Mudan.
Yu Mudan of the Seven Color Flower was perhaps the closest to the common people in the Seven Color Flower. The other six flowers in the Seven Color Flower were hard to come by, let alone ordinary people. Even the descendants of the great families in the capital were hard to come by. However, it was actually not difficult to see Yu Mudan. Because basically... Yu Mudan would be in charge of the Peony Pavilion every day. As long as she came to the Peony Pavilion... She would have the chance to see her, but there was no threshold to enter the Peony Pavilion. It was open to everyone.
Of course, although there were often people who came to the Peony Pavilion after hearing her name, there were also many people who saw Yu Mudan. However, most of them just wanted to take a look and would not really try to get close to her. Not many people dreamed of getting Yu Mudan's favor because... Yu Mudan's identity was also not a secret to everyone.
It was rumored that there were eight super big families in China, and four of them were in Beijing. The Xiao Family where Xiao Daier lived was the Wang Family where Wang Bin, who had once died in the hands of the Ice Snow Lotus. All of them were in this category, and one of the other two families was one of them. It was the Soong Family where Yu Mudan lived.
And Yu Mudan's true identity was the second young lady of the Soong Family, Soong Yudan.
Without a doubt, no matter how approachable Yu Mudan was, not many people really thought that the second young lady of the Soong Family was fond of them. And if there really was a man with an ordinary background who thought that he could marry the Soong Family's Second Miss, then he would most likely be delusional. In fact, even the disciples of the great families in the capital knew that they were not worthy of the second young lady of the Soong Family. Without a doubt, every disciple of the capital who received Soong Yudan's invitation tonight. All men and women will be proud of it.
Because of this, even though the banquet only started at seven, when it was just six o'clock, basically, everyone had already arrived. The reason why it was said that basically... That was because everyone knew that there should still be people who had not arrived yet. Because at this moment, Second Miss Song, Soong Yudan, was personally welcoming the guests at the door. And she was still waiting at the door, which meant that there were still guests who had not arrived.
The first floor of Peony Pavilion was a place to display all kinds of jade artifacts, and the second floor was where the banquet would be held. As for the third floor, it was obviously Soong Yudan's private area. However, no one went up to the second floor. Instead, they were all accompanying Soong Yudan at the door. Since this beautiful Yu Mudan insisted on personally welcoming guests, it was naturally not convenient for them to go up first.
Soong Yudan invited a lot of guests tonight and there were already more than a hundred people gathered at the entrance of Peony Pavilion. However, the identities of these people were a little complicated, although about half of them were from the capital's aristocratic families. There were also many relatively ordinary guests, such as a poet. One painter and two singers were said to be singers, although in the eyes of ordinary people, these people were not ordinary, but compared to those descendants of wealthy families, these people really did not deserve to sit with them.
A luxury car slowly drove into the car and stopped. A slightly feminine man got out of the car and a few people immediately went up to greet him. However, some people could not help but start to ridicule him.
"Yo, the guy who just lost the battle, how dare he appear here?" A strange voice entered everyone's ears and looked at the person who came. Then they looked at the person who had spoken, and some of the scions of the capital who knew the inside story. They immediately understood that there would be a show to watch.
The feminine man who had just appeared was Lan Shijun, who had participated in the Battle of the Dragon Sword. Although the Lan Family in the capital was not a super big family like the Soong Family, it was still a big family. Lan Shijun was also quite famous. He was also ranked among the younger generation. Generally speaking, he was ranked among the top. No one in the capital would provoke him for no reason. However... The person who had just spoken was an exception. Every time he saw Lan Shijun... He would definitely take the initiative to cause some trouble, and there was only one reason... Because his name was Hsu Shijun.
