The Nine Chapters of Mystery Chapter 55(2/2)

past.

After more than four hundred years of reproduction, the Feng family in the north of the city is now much more prosperous than the Feng family in the west.

The ancestral home of Wu Zhuangyuan in Feng Village in the north of the city was inherited by the eldest son of his eldest son, and most of the family's assets also belong to this lineage.

Nowadays, the eldest son of the eldest son, thanks to the blessings of his ancestors, has become a hot imperial businessman and a big family well-known far and wide.

After a little analysis, Su Wangting came to a conclusion.

Needless to say, those who can marry into a famous family in Silla must come from a wealthy family.

Since the royal merchants had to search for rare treasures for the palace, they often traveled to foreign lands, so it was possible that they had been to Silla.

So it's very simple, just go to Wu Zhuangyuan's ancestral home in Feng Village in the north of the city and find out.

The journey of just over fifty miles continued at a fast pace, and before long, Su Wangting had arrived at Feng Village in the north of Luyang City.

The scale of Wu Zhuangyuan's ancestral home was indeed as grand as he imagined. Just by looking at the elegant courtyard walls, one could guess that this home must be extremely luxurious.

I saw a plaque hanging high above the main entrance of Wu Zhuangyuan's ancestral home, with the four characters "Wukui Family" written on it. The vermilion door was closed tightly, and only a small side door was opened. Several young men guarding the door were chatting at the door.

Su Wangting rolled his eyes, secretly thinking that if he went to the villagers to inquire about the news about this house, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

After all, this village is full of people named Feng, and they are all descendants of the Wu champion.

So after thinking for a moment, Su Wangting got off his horse, stepped forward with a smile and clasped his fists: "Excuse me, brothers, I wonder if the Feng Mansion has hired anyone recently?"

A servant looked sideways at Su Wangting and said with a sneer: "Brother, you look very cool, you are not a local, are you? Any servant who wants to beg for food in the Feng Mansion would not rely on the recommendation of an acquaintance in the manor.

?Do you have any acquaintances in Feng Mansion?"

Su Wangting shook his head blankly.

The boy sneered and waved his hands: "Then go away quickly. There are so many people waiting at the entrance of the imperial merchant's mansion. There are important things to be done in the house these two days, and the housekeeper will definitely not recruit outsiders who don't know the details.

Servant, please leave quickly."

Su Wangting took out a few pieces of broken silver from his arms and said with a smile: "I wonder what big thing this Feng Mansion is going to do?"

The boy took the broken silver, weighed it a few times, put it in his arms, and asked, "Didn't you see a competition platform being built under the archway at the entrance of the village when you entered the village?"

"Uh... I saw it, I thought it was for a stage or something."

The young man nodded: "It's a competition platform. After the Feng family became the number one scholar in martial arts, there was a tradition of competition to choose a son-in-law. Tomorrow is the day when the eldest daughter of the Feng family competes to choose a son-in-law. At that time, martial arts families from several nearby states will come to participate.

Contest."

"A contest to recruit a bride?"

The boy sneered and said: "What kind of marriage are you recruiting? It's not like the Feng family doesn't have a young master, so why do you need to recruit a bride? It's just to choose a son-in-law!"

"Can you ask for a match?"

The boy waved his hands repeatedly: "There is no such request. What the Feng family values ​​​​is the son-in-law's skills, not his family background. If the family is poor, the Feng family will give a large sum of gold and silver to the daughter to ensure that the married daughter will live a prosperous life. Hmm...

But having said that, those who come to the competition in the past are all discerning and worthy, and those from mediocre families consciously do not participate. Most of them are young masters from prominent martial arts families in various states."

"I see..." Su Wangting touched his chin and turned his eyes away, "Then...shall the winner marry the eldest daughter directly, or?"

The young man shook his head: "According to the rules, the eldest lady must stay in the mansion for another seven days before she can leave the palace. The new uncle must stay in the guest room of the mansion for seven days, and can only accept the banquet after being entertained by the closest relatives in the clan.

Take the bride."

Su Wangting nodded repeatedly when he heard this.

And the corners of his mouth raised into a wicked smile.
