Section 78 Fighting
Lin Yuexin knew that this move would probably touch the sensitive nerves of many people. After all, holding such an important cocktail party in the name of Wufeng in the imperial capital city is undoubtedly a clear signal to the upper class of the imperial capital. Such a notice is almost straightforward. Lin Yuexin certainly understands the meaning of this, but the opportunity should not be missed, and the time will never come again. If he does not take advantage of this opportunity to gain a foothold in the future Qin Wang Mansion, he who originally belonged to the later generations will be difficult to get along with him again.
The two mountains standing in front of the mountains competed in the confrontation. Lin Yuexin did not want to compete with anyone, but she did not want to live in the squeezing gap. She only hoped that she could live in the unrestrained sunshine and do what she wanted according to her own ideas. To do this, she needed to have many external conditions. Only in this way can she win the respect of the other party in the future, especially in the other two women have talents and wisdom that are not inferior to her, and they also have considerable weight in front of her lover.
When the invitation letter from His Highness from the King of Qin quietly traveled through the upper class of the imperial capital, almost all the eyes in the upper class of the imperial capital were focused on Qingyiyuan without exception. Li Wufeng's low-key after coming to the capital this time made everyone a little disappointed. He did not participate in any social activities in the imperial capital, nor did he show his edge in any public place. In addition to the two negotiations, His Highness of the King of Qin this time was a very different story than his previous two visits to Beijing. It was so low-key that it was unbelievable that such a person who was never willing to be lonely could stay in the corner of the west of the city.
However, this cocktail party finally opened up a group representing the vast regional power groups in the western part of the empire. What surprised everyone was that at this cocktail party, another mysterious heroine, besides Situ Yutang and Angel, would appear. The mysterious identity of this hostess made celebrities from all walks of life in the upper class of the imperial capital. They could not imagine who could play such a role without Situ Yutang and Angel. Because the confidentiality work was done very well, the secret was kept secret until the moment the cocktail party began.
The clear weather in April in the imperial capital makes social-loving people happy. This is the most suitable season for holding various cocktail parties and dances and large-scale cultural and entertainment activities. The spring and autumn have always been the most frequent time period for human activities, and no one is exceptional. At this time, the various private gardens in the imperial capital often become the most popular place. For example, social activities with a narrow family nature or scope often choose to hold them in their own homes, but
, For example, some more important cocktail parties and dances that attend more guests, the host often rents some private gardens and gardens with beautiful scenery and elegant environments and large places to undertake such an important task. In this way, the private gardens and courtyards in the imperial capital have become the most popular places, so an important indicator to measure whether a family or individual belongs to the top class in the upper class of the imperial capital is to see whether it has a decent private garden.
Qingyiyuan and Fengzeyuan are undoubtedly the best among private gardens. If Fengzeyuan is a typical representative of traditional Tang-style gardens, then Qingyiyuan is a perfect masterpiece that combines east and west. Qingyiyuan is located in a low-sinking wetland west of the city. Many of them were originally swamped areas. Even after decades of the establishment of the imperial capital, there was still no one living here. However, such a wetland was abandoned in the city and was obviously not suitable for the development of the city. Since the founding of the Tanghe Empire, the General Administration of Imperial Construction and the Imperial Capital Construction Department have successively begun to renovate this land, draining water from some areas and transporting dry soil to fill it, while some areas have been preserved to form lakes. Gradually, the land reclamation has become flat land. It took more than 30 years to complete this renovation project and open up tens of thousands of acres of urban land, which greatly promoted the development of the southern area of the imperial capital.
This large area of land was inevitably developed, which attracted the attention of all forces in the Empire at that time. Through various means, the privileged classes of the Empire purchased at a low price or borrowed other names to expropriate the land directly under the Imperial Construction Administration. In decades, the more than 10,000 acres of land were divided up, and the land retained by the central government of the Empire was less than 2,000 acres. After these privileged classes acquired these lands, they largely became larger.
The construction of luxury houses and luxury houses was at the heyday of the empire's national strength. Many nobles were accomplicing arts and building private gardens became the most fashionable way to fight wealth at that time. Tang style, Tian style, Lanian style, mixed style and other styles emerged one after another, becoming a highlight of the time. After decades of decline, it has also left countless architectural wonders with different styles for the current imperial capital, and Qingyiyuan is one of the shining pearls.
Qingyiyuan was designed and built by the family of the Imperial Minister of Finance at that time. The Qingyiyuan was designed and built by architects from two different styles of the Western Continent and the Empire. Among them, a series of Tang-style buildings such as Tingtao Xiaozhu, Zideyuan, Fangfeizhai, and Taoyuan Shengjing are mostly in the eastern half dominated by water. The Lanian-style buildings mainly dominated by large neat green spaces and colonnade gardens are concentrated in the western half. The two are taken a central axis and separated by a spacious marble-paved bridge corridor to achieve a perfect unity.
The entire building complex has not been damaged much after hundreds of years. After almost every owner took over, he has doubled his care and repaired the garden, which has also made Qingyiyuan a famous garden famous overseas. The Weng family, who is currently the representative of the owner Weng Tong-he, is also considered a family with a lot of history in the imperial capital. The Weng family not only has connections in the imperial court, but also has a lot of connections in the imperial court. The Weng family's eldest son Weng Gongzhi is now the director of the Circulation Department of the Imperial General Administration of Commerce. The second son Weng Gongqu assists his father in charge of the business operations of the Weng family. The Weng family not only operates in Zhongzhou.
The cotton and linen textile industry is a considerable scale, and it is also the most famous silk operator in the imperial capital. More than 20% of the silk business in the imperial capital is controlled by the Weng family, and the cotton and linen fabric business accounts for 30%. Dozens of cloth shops and satin shops are distributed in the east, west, south, north and central areas of the imperial capital, demonstrating the extraordinary status of the Weng family among their peers. Weng Tong-he is also the executive director of the Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce and also has a significant influence in the Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce. This year, he is ambitious to prepare to run for the vice president of the Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce.
Because the Weng family had a very close connection with the Hua family in Jiangnan, they naturally climbed to the line of Western Xinjiang. Especially after the Jiangnan industry and commerce fell into decline due to war and the silk industry of Jincheng and Hanzhong prefectures rose by chance, the source of silk of the Weng family had to rely more on the territory of Western Xinjiang to a greater extent. It was naturally the primary task of the Weng family. When Su Qin sent someone to contact the Weng family to ask for the use of Qingyiyuan, the Weng family almost nodded and agreed to this almost gift-like request, and even firmly required that all the costs of the reception be borne by the Weng family, but this request was flatly rejected by the Western Xinjiang side.
Wufeng looked out the window with a complicated expression. After some modification, Lin Yuexin's softness and pity revealed from her bones is enough to impress any man with a sarcastic heart. Of course, she is no exception. That extraordinary pure beauty can only be described as "a lotus from clear water" and in other languages it is a kind of despicable thing. But Wufeng saw from the pure beauty on Yuexin's surface that the stubbornness and perseverance and tranquility hidden behind her. Lin Yuexin is not an ordinary girl. Not only in terms of identity, but also in terms of experience and experience, she will not be willing to stand behind the scenes all the time. This has always been the point that Wufeng is most worried about. The disagreement between Situ Yutang and An Qier has already made Wufeng feel a headache. In addition, Lin Yuexin, who is no less than the two women, Wufeng doesn't know what these girls who are not inferior to any man in terms of wits will bring to his life.
Lin Yuexin seemed to be explaining something to several servants, and sometimes attracted two officials who were specifically responsible for reception. Her focused expression and gentle smile made people feel that she had completely devoted herself to the role of hostess. She sighed slightly. When Situ Tai and Situ Biao couldn't wait to launch a social offensive, Su Qin and Wang Liao had proposed to themselves that they would expand their influence in the Western Xinjiang by holding some social activities. Wufeng refused on the grounds that there was no suitable hostess. When Lin Yuexin volunteered to take the role of hostess, Wufeng knew that he could not be careless on this issue.
Rejection is undoubtedly a denial of Lin Yuexin's identity. It will cause a heavy damage to Lin Yuexin's mind. Wufeng could not do this anyway. However, once he agrees, it will undoubtedly show to the upper class of the imperial capital and even the entire empire that Lin Yuexin will also be his Li Wufeng's princess. This is undoubtedly a bit unfair to Situ Yutang and An Qier far away in the Western Xinjiang, and it is very easy to cause conflicts between several people. However, in this case, he can only accept it first and take a step forward, and he does not care about what will happen in the future.
With this mentality, Wufeng did not ask much about this matter. Everything was left to Lin Yuexin, Su Qin and others. He only hoped that this cocktail party would achieve the expected purpose. After all, Situ Yuan was about to ascend the throne, and he did not have much chance to stay in the imperial capital. As soon as the throne ceremony ended, I was afraid that the horn of the battle with Situ Tai would be sounded when he left the capital and returned home.
