161. Chapter 161 The Duke of Lu's Birthday Banquet
The next day, Mo Yizhi asked Mu Yan to bring silver to Lin's house and bought Min Dannan's contract. He also gave Lin's group a bag of money and sent it out of the capital.
In this way, the matter between Min Dannan and Lin was understood.
The people of the Lin family are not fools. After these things, we can naturally understand who the person behind Min Dannan is.
Not to mention that he is a down-and-out small clan, even if the four major clans in the capital now want to fight against the General's Mansion, it will take a lot of attention.
Therefore, even if Mo Yizhi didn't give them money, the Lin family members would not dare to do anything more. But Mo Yizhi naturally made the name of a benevolent man, so he naturally did the benevolent things to the end.
...
On this day, Mo Yizhi's side returned to the mansion from the Ministry of War and unexpectedly received an invitation from the Duke of Lu's Mansion.
It was originally the fiftieth birthday of Duke Lu.
Although it is so concealed, there is no reason to refuse.
She asked Lady Lan to prepare a decent gift and arrived on the same day.
Duke Lu was his father and founding father. Although he still inherited his title, he was already a free position.
The birthday banquet of Duke Lu is simply incomparable to the previous birthday banquet of the fifth prince Yue Junli.
A prince’s birthday party was just a few brothers and a few friends gathered together.
Mo Yizhi glanced at the birthday party of Duke Lu, and seemed to have been invited by half of the officials in the court.
He had no friendship with Duke Lu. Although he was in the Ministry of War with his eldest son Dong Gang, Mo Yizhi respected him on the surface, but he actually did not take him seriously.
I thought of sending a gift, and sat for a while before leaving first, but as soon as I entered the yard, the waiter came up to me: "Mr. Mo, my master and wife have been waiting for a long time."
Mo Yizhi thought, maybe it was because of the previous "teaching" of Dong Gang, that his parents had come to settle the old accounts with him now.
As the waiter entered, she saw Dong Gang greeting the guests warmly on the way, and she was not hostile when she saw Mo Yizhi leaving. This made her a little strange.
When he arrived at the main hall, Duke Lu and his wife were talking.
Mo Yizhi stepped forward and held his fists and bowed: "Duke Lu's birthday is a happy birthday."
Without the expected cold words, Duke Lu and his wife immediately stood up and greeted Mo Yizhi with a very warm look when they saw Mo Yizhi.
"So it's my nephew who is here, hurry up and sit down."
This was the first time Mo Yizhi saw Duke Lu. Although he was only fifty years old, he looked much older than his actual age. He looked slightly thin, with kind eyebrows and graceful eyes, and gray temples.
Mo Yizhi nodded: "Thank you, Duke Lu."
His wife was quite plump and rosy in her face. She called her maid: "Come tea for Lord Mo."
"Mrs. Don't have to be too polite."
Seeing that he, the old couple, was so enthusiastic, was beyond Mo Yizhi's expectations.
The three of them fell to sit down and heard the wife of Duke Lu Guo say, "I should have gone to the mansion to thank you early, but the little girl didn't know the identity of Lord Mo that day. We just learned from the fourth prince's mouth the day before yesterday that the one who saved the little girl that day was Lord Mo."
Mo Yizhi then realized that it was to save Dong Yuru that day.
If he and the other two mentioned this matter, Mo Yizhi would probably have forgotten it.
