    The carriage stopped in front of the Tang Mansion. Tie Heng and Qiu Ainai got out of the carriage. The servant waiting beside them guided the coachman to park the carriage elsewhere.

    "Is this Tang Tang's home?" Tie Heng looked at the tall door decorated with lights and colorful decorations in front of him, as well as the lively scene in front of the door, and was slightly surprised.  "So angry!".

    "What's so strange about this? Tang Tang's mother is not an ordinary person." Qiu Ainai whispered as she walked forward.

    "Oh? Why is it unusual?" Tie Heng asked curiously.

    Regarding Tang Tang¡¯s family situation, Tie Heng only knew that her father was not from a big family, but he was an official in the past. His official position seemed to be not low, but he died of illness when she was young.  Tang Tang's mother is an inspector stationed in Fuzhou by the imperial court's Lutianjian. She is a high-ranking official of the fifth rank and is also a powerful magician.  Nothing else is known.

    Qiu Ainai pursed her lips and smiled, seeming a little proud, and also seemed to be mocking Tie Heng for his ignorance.  "Do you know what Tang Tang's mother's surname is?"

    Tie Heng shook his head, he really didn¡¯t know this.  He and Tang Tang were very close, but they couldn't ask each other's mother's surname before she got married. That was very rude.

    By this time they had already entered the gate, and the welcoming steward of the Tang Mansion came to entertain the two of them. Tie Heng took out the invitation from his arms and handed it to the other party. Mr. Dong also handed over the invitation of his own lady.

    This steward recognized Qiu Ainai and knew that she was the daughter of the prefect, so he did not dare to show any slightest care. He quickly summoned a maid and asked her to take the two distinguished guests to the living room.

    Qiu Ainai waved her hand and drove the maid away, indicating that there was no need to bother her. She had been to Tang Mansion many times and knew the roads here.  The steward didn't dare to persist. He knew that the daughter of the prefect in front of him had a bad temper, so he could only follow her wishes without any objection.

    Tie Heng followed Qiu Ainai for a while. The latter deliberately slowed down and lowered his voice: "Tang Tang's mother's surname is Wei, do you understand?"

    This girl¡¯s sly smile and her tone of voice seemed to contain deep meaning.

    "The surname is Wei?" Tie Heng began to think about it, searching from his memory for any wealthy families with the surname Wei in the Darong Dynasty.

    Qiu Ainai smiled even more happily, waiting for Tieheng to come and ask her for advice if he couldn't guess.  Mr. Dong followed the two of them and watched with a smile.

    The two of them arrived not too early, and the guests for the banquet had already arrived one after another. From time to time, guests who recognized Qiu Ainai greeted her on the road.  Except for a few elders Qiu Ainai, who would give Yingying Yifu as a return gift, everyone else ignored them.  Those people did not show any dissatisfaction, and they seemed to be proud of Qiu Ainai as a matter of course.

    "No way?" Tie Heng whispered, seeming to have thought of the answer, but he was a little unsure.  "Then Tangtang will become a princess?"

    To Tie Heng¡¯s meaningless words, Qiu Ainai immediately gave an answer: ¡°If you are not a princess, you can only be regarded as the head of the county at most!¡±

    By saying this, she was telling Tie Heng in disguise that he had guessed correctly.

    "Never mind the princess, Tang Tang has royal ancestry, I didn't know it before!" Tie Hengxin said: "No wonder Tang Tang has an extraordinary temperament.

    "Only you don't know, but everyone knows it! But you are quick and you guessed it right away, so you are awesome!" Qiu Ainai then went on to tell a lot about Tang Tang's mother's deeds. From her tone,  He seemed to be very impressed.

    The surname Wei is the national surname of the Darong Dynasty. Tang Tang's mother is from the royal family. Her full name is Wei Xinyan. Her ancestor is the youngest son of the founding emperor. According to the genealogy, she is also the cousin of the current emperor.  Not only does this princess have a noble status, but her abilities are also extraordinary. She relied on her true talents to become the supervisor of Lu Tianjian.  Moreover, she is thoughtful and resourceful, and she is also vigorous, rigorous and courageous in her work. She once led the team to arrest and exterminate several evil magicians, and her reputation spread far and wide.  After her husband passed away, she raised Tang Tang by herself. At the same time, she also managed Fuzhou's Lutian Prison in an orderly manner. The magicians under her jurisdiction were also obedient and 100% supported the imperial court and obeyed him.  Dispatch.  None of this is obviously easy, which is why Qiu Ainai admires her.

    "She can educate Tang Tang so well and make great achievements in her career. This Mrs. Tang is a strong woman who can handle both her family and career, and she can do hard work with both hands!" Tie Heng muttered.

    At the same time, he understood why the banquet jointly organized by the two families was held in the Tang Mansion.  Originally Tie Heng thought it was because of Lu Shan's father.  Lu Shan's father is a supervisory censor, whose duty is to supervise the officials in Fuzhou. There must be many things that are inconvenient to do, let alone interact with those people. Now it seems that this is also the reason.

    "You should call me aunt." Qiu Ainai seemed toSomewhat unhappy, he turned around and gave him a lesson.

    Tie Heng was not dissatisfied and smiled slightly.  Mr. Dong, who was following behind, was very interested in what he just said. It was the first time he heard someone commenting on Mrs. Tang like this, and it was so insightful and original. But these words came from a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old. He  I felt a little weird again, and finally thought about it, shook my head, and laughed.

    "This kid dares to say it, but he still has a judgmental tone. He has good vision, but he is also too courageous."

    At this time, they had entered the courtyard where the hall was located. Along the way, the houses and pavilions they saw were not magnificent, but they were also carved and painted, and they were large in scale and very vast in area.

    This courtyard is no exception. There are more than thirty banquet tables that can accommodate five or six people sitting side by side. It still looks very spacious. There are many floating lamps placed around it, making the courtyard as bright as day.  Desserts such as pastries and candied fruits were placed on every table. Several banquet tables were already occupied, and maids stood aside to wait on them.  They brought fragrant tea or hot towels for hand washing, and the service was very attentive.

    Tie Heng saw that more than a dozen classmates in his class were already sitting among them and waving to him. Tie Heng knew that his seat should be here as well. He asked a steward next to him. Sure enough, they were doing the right thing.  The students in Class A of the branch were all arranged together.

    "Where is my seat?" Qiu Ainai asked.

    "Your seat is in the hall, please go this way." The steward personally led the way.

    Qiu Ainai was a little unhappy, but there was nothing she could do about it.  Her father is busy with work and cannot attend the banquet, so she is representing her father now, and secondly Tang Tang's friends. In this case, she has to go to the hall to sit with the adults first, and in the courtyard are the children.  If she wanted to join the banquet, she would have to wait until Tang Tang and Lu Shan returned the gifts to the guests and had eaten longevity noodles.

    "Tie Heng, I'll go inside first. You can sit here. I'll come find you later." Qiu Ainai pouted and said before leaving.

    "Well, go ahead! Be good!" Tie Heng deliberately teased her, hoping to make her feel better.

    "It's disgusting. You treat people like children, but they go inside and sit with adults." Qiu Ainai wrinkled her little nose at him, then turned around and left.

    Tie Heng smiled and walked towards where his classmates were.  But the stewards, servants and maids nearby were stunned into silence.  Qiu Ainai had been to the Tang Mansion many times with her father when she came to visit Mrs. Tang and to play with Tang Tang. The servants like them all knew how fierce the temper of Miss Qiu Ainai was.  Now that this young man was talking so casually and affectionately, Qiu Ainai looked impressed, which made them all feel incredible.

    Sitting on his seat, Tie Heng greeted the classmates around him, and everyone responded enthusiastically.  The two Luo brothers had arrived a long time ago, and they nodded in greeting when they saw him. Their demeanor was calm, and they had indeed improved a lot compared to before.  On the other hand, the two boys from the Zuo family, who have never been very open-minded and have always had a grudge against Tie Heng, ignored him at the moment and talked to their own two or three buddies.

    Naturally, Tie Heng would not touch his hot face against someone else's cold buttocks. He turned away and chatted and laughed with a few classmates who came over. It was not boring at all.  This was Tie Heng's first time attending such a banquet. He looked around curiously. In addition to their classmates from Class A, the other banquets were also arranged for young people among the guests. The oldest was only ten years old.  They are all children of official families, many of them are also students of Kunyuan Academy, and most of them are seniors of Tie Heng and others, so they have to get up first to salute, and if there are people who are familiar with each other, they have to greet each other for a while.

    Soon, other guests gradually arrived, and from time to time they could see the leading figures in Tianfeng City. Many of them were officials, and several were teachers from the school. Even those who could not be present in person would be sent  Send congratulatory gifts personally.
