Great court system

Chapter 228
"Miss is here!"

As the banquet gradually progressed, the protagonist Xia Ziwei finally arrived.

At this time, she has changed from the light blue dress just now to a long purple dress, which is full of mystery and nobility, with a light pink gauze on her shoulders, and the breeze blows, like a fairy descending to earth.

The long purple skirt has embroidered crape myrtle flowers on the skirt. There is a delicate orchid hairpin on the head, decorated with thin purple silk beaded tassels, without a trace of powder.

Seeing Xia Ziwei walking slowly, the eyes of the audience were also attracted by her, amazed by her beauty.

"My lord, it's a pity, you are not from Northern Qi." Han Dafu looked at the noble and beautiful Xia Ziwei, and said to He Ning with a little regret.

He Ning frowned slightly, and asked, "Why did you say that?"

Han Dafu chuckled and said, "My lord, didn't you see that? Although it seems that Palace Master Xia is holding a birthday party for Miss Xia, in fact, he seems to be choosing a son-in-law.

Look at the atmosphere of the whole audience, not to mention the young man from the Zhang family just now, just look at how many young heroes have come here, all of them are looking at Miss Xia excitedly.

Coupled with some gossip about Palace Master Xia marrying a daughter, it is obvious that Palace Master Xia is using this banquet to choose a son-in-law.

It's a pity that my lord is from Liang, and he is still an official in Nanliang, otherwise he could have married Miss Xia.

I heard that Palace Master Xia loves his dead wife very much, just this daughter, whoever marries her may still be able to inherit Palace Master Xia's title of title and title of lord.

With your talents and qualifications, I don’t think anyone here can compare to you. "

At the end, Han Dafu gave He Ning a small compliment, and Mo Bo nodded in agreement.

Hearing this, He Ning directly discarded the flattering words in the second half of the sentence. After thinking about the first half of the sentence carefully, he realized that it was true that he had been thinking about how to use business talks to persuade Xia Changling, but he didn't pay attention to the surroundings at the moment. atmosphere.

Looking at it now, every family that came to the birthday party had a young boy of the right age, like a blind date meeting in the previous life.

However, He Ning has nothing to regret about his identity as a Liang person. Even if he is a Qi person, with He Ning's personality, he would not rely on women for soft meals.

At this time, on the other side, Xia Ziwei had slowly arrived beside Xia Changling, and sat down next to Xia Changling.

When she just sat down, her beautiful eyes subconsciously began to search around, as if she was looking for something.

Finally, she found He Ning who was sitting in the corner, her eyes lit up slightly, and a smile appeared on her otherwise calm face.

For He Ning, she didn't know what kind of feeling it was, whether it was pure gratitude or a slight liking, she didn't know either.

The starry sky projector that He Ning gave her seemed to give her the first light in her life, and made her feel a feeling she had never had before.

Since her mother passed away, Xia Ziwei has never had a mother in her memory.

She often stays alone in the dark and gloomy corner, looking at the bright moonlight in the sky, imagining that her mother is there.

But facing the high moon, she couldn't reach it, she could only look at the moon in the sky, crying silently, how much she wanted to be by her mother's side.

All of this, she thought was impossible before, but He Ning's gift really fulfilled her wish.

When the button was pressed, the moon and stars shone on the wall. Looking at the endless starry sky, she seemed to have really come to the sky and returned to her mother's embrace, which made her feel warm in her life.

And He Ning who gave her a gift also left a deep impression in her heart...

Xia Changling on the side noticed the change in his daughter's expression at this moment, and frowned slightly.

As a warrior who was only one step away from reaching the Tianfu realm, and being so close to Xia Ziwei, he naturally felt her changes.

Following his daughter's line of sight, Xia Changling saw He Ning and the other three sitting in an inconspicuous corner.

He quickly locked his eyes on He Ning. Han Dafu was too old, and Mo Bo was in his early twenties. Only He Ning was young and handsome, with a mysterious aura about him.

Squinting his eyes, Xia Changling took a deep look at He Ning, very curious about this young man who could attract his daughter's attention.

Since the death of her late wife, Xia Ziwei never seemed to have cared about anything, but it was the first time that she paid so much attention to a young man today.

At this time, He Ning also faintly sensed that something was wrong, as if someone was peeping at him secretly, looking around with mental power, and secretly observing the surroundings as if drinking tea, searching for suspicious people.

"Very vigilant boy!"

Xia Changling stroked his beard, and praised slightly, He Ning's actions certainly couldn't escape his eyes, so he was very surprised.

With his perfect strength in the Tibetan realm, spying on a martial artist in the body refining realm can still arouse the other party's alert. This insight alone is extraordinary.

She secretly decided in her heart that if He Ning could pass his inspection, then it would be okay to betroth Wei Er to him.

"Father, what are you talking about?" Xia Ziwei, who was sitting aside, asked in confusion after hearing Xia Changling's murmur just now.

"Oh, it's nothing. I took a random look at the young heroes at the scene, and found that they are all pretty good." Xia Changling averted his gaze from looking at He Ning, raised his hand and fondled Xia Ziwei's head, and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xia Ziwei's pretty face suddenly turned red with embarrassment. Originally, she was not cold about her father arranging a husband for her, and was even a little disgusted and repelled.

But for some reason, she secretly glanced at a certain place, and subconsciously felt a little bit of anticipation in her heart.

Seeing his daughter's expression, Xia Changling sighed slightly. Although it was his beloved wife's dying wish to let Wei'er find a good husband-in-law, Xia Changling felt a little bit reluctant to let go of him now. My daughter is coming.

Seeing that the father and daughter above were still showing their affection, some people below couldn't help it.

A handsome boy of seventeen or eighteen stood up and cupped his hands towards Xia Changling, saying, "I'm in Heping Shui's family. I've met Uncle Xia and Miss Xia. I wish Miss Ziwei a happy birthday, happiness and health."

Hearing this, Xia Changling stopped what he was doing, and looked at the young man below, Heping Shuijia, a rich clan in Heping County, Lingyang Prefecture, and an ancestor of Ksitigarbha.

"It's you Changdong. No need to be polite. Is your old man in good health?"

Xia Ziwei also nodded at him, showing a slight courtesy.

Shui Changdong looked at the beautiful Xia Ziwei, his mind froze for a moment, and then he smiled faintly and said: "Thank you, Palace Master Xia for your concern, my grandfather is still in good health and can still eat five bowls of rice at a time.

But my grandfather gave me a task this time, I don't know if Uncle Xia can fulfill it. "

"Oh, nephew Shui Xian, please tell me, the Palace Master who can help will definitely help."

Shui Changdong smiled and said: "Then ask Uncle Xia to marry Miss Ziwei to me!"
