Chapter 105 106. A harmonious dinner party

The restaurant in Wushanbao is quite luxurious.

The towering ceiling is inlaid with complicated carvings, and various gemstones shine under the light of the huge magic crystal lamp, showing an unparalleled aura of nobility.

The mural occupies the entire wall, including mountains and water, mighty thunder beasts, and docile and cute animals. It is like a gallery, adding a bit of splendor.

A long and exquisite dining table was placed in the center, with silver tableware and candlesticks placed on it. When Luo Ning arrived, the teams of servants on both sides were already preparing food.

Since leaving the back mountain, Lulans has restrained his attitude towards Luo Ning. He was silent along the way, especially after entering the restaurant. He walked straight to the main table, without the chatter and laughter like on the mountain. .

This was obviously intentional, and Luo Ning just let it go, walked aside and found a seat to sit down.

"Haha, long time no see, my dear brother."

Accompanied by some youthful and cheerful laughter, a young man with the same silver hair and black eyes opened his arms and walked in quickly from the outside.

Brayton's appearance is a bit like Diane's, which also makes him look more refined and delicate.

His expression was relaxed and confident, with a bright smile on his face at the moment, as if he was very happy to see Luo Ning.

"Long time no see, Brayton."

Luo Ning stood up, hugged the other person, and said hello very naturally.

Only then did Brayton salute Rulans, very formal and somewhat reserved, "Good evening, grandpa."

Lulans smiled and nodded, pointing to the seat next to Ronin, "Sit down, where are Wiggins and Diane?"

"Here we come, Father!"

Diane's figure appeared outside the restaurant, and Luo Ning looked over.

She was seen wearing a relaxed dress and pushing a wheelchair into the restaurant. On the wheelchair, Wiggins, who had a beard on his face, sat on it, looking a little decadent.

"Father!"

Luo Ning stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "I feel very sad about your experience. But please cheer up, Wushan City and Wushan Territory still need you."

Wiggins nodded, his voice a little hoarse, "Thank you for your encouragement, Ronin. I thought you would come back in December, but I didn't expect you to come back so early. It seems that you still have me as your father in your heart."

As he spoke, he motioned to Diane to push him to the dining table. The latter nodded to Ronin, then continued to push the wheelchair, and said hello to Rulans after getting into position.

Luo Ning heard the strangeness in Wiggins' words. The other party was complaining that he didn't come to visit immediately.

However, it can be seen that this blow has indeed changed Wiggins' temperament. If it were normal, the other party would definitely jump up and curse a few words, but now he is just angry.

"Now that we're all here, let's start eating." Rulans said.

As his voice fell, the servants waiting on the side opened the lids of the silver plates. Some servants were cutting roast lamb, some were cutting steaks, and some were pouring glasses for the masters at the table. liquor.

"It's rare that we have the opportunity to sit together as a family."

Lu Lansi picked up the cup and said, "Cheers to Wushan."

"For Wushan..."

"For Wushan..."

"For Osan!"

Several people raised their glasses together and drank it all.

Next, there was a drinking session with each other, but most of them just raised their glasses and nodded in greeting, then drank it down without saying much.

Different from the bustle of people drinking and talking, this meal was a bit quiet.

Luo Ning felt a little uncomfortable and could only keep busy.

Not long after, Lulans put down the tableware, said something and left first.

Luo Ning noticed that the atmosphere at the table seemed to be much more relaxed. It seemed that everyone was a little stressed in front of the old Marquis.

Brayton stood up, picked up his crystal glass, and raised it towards Ronin.

"Luo Ning, I heard that you conquered three savage tribes. I admire your courage and achievements. I also hope that I can contribute to the family like you!"

Luo Ning laughed, stood up and clinked glasses with the other party, "They are all backward savages. To be honest, it is actually more difficult to find where they are hiding than to defeat them."

"I heard that you also became a junior knight."

Diane also raised her glass, "Cheers to your progress."

"Thank you!" Luo Ning responded.

"Speaking of the savage tribe, I think of the days when I led the noble coalition to wipe out them."

Sitting in a wheelchair, Wiggins was somewhat reminiscing about the past.

At that time, he was young and energetic, and he was much more energetic than before he broke his leg. It was a pity that he did not clear out the fleeing nobles in one go, which made him very frustrated.

"You have conquered three savage tribes, plus the leader of Thain, Leisen, has conquered one. The sinners in the north have finally been eliminated, which can be regarded as a solution to my worries."

Wiggins raised his glass, "You did a great job!"

Luo Ning raised his glass again.

This was the first time he heard words of praise from Wiggins. In his memory, he didn't seem to have received any praise from his predecessor.

"Brother, my grandfather has found out that the assassination of my father was carried out by the Skull and Bones Society, and this Skull and Bones Society is a branch of the Black and Gold Brotherhood. In order to take revenge and regain the dignity of the Wushan family, I and My father thinks that we will send troops against the Black and Gold Brotherhood next spring!”

Breton turned the topic to the assassination of Wiggins.

"In the past, my father led the expedition, but it is not convenient for him now, and my mother said that I am too young and not old enough to go to the battlefield. So, how about you represent our Wushan family next year?"

Breton's expression was very serious, "The team needs a commander who can represent the Wushan family."

Ronin's heart trembled, this topic jump was a bit big.

But if you analyze this sentence carefully, it is correct.

Now there are only three people who are suitable to represent the Wushan family among the members of the Wushan family - Lu Lans, Luo Ning, and Breton.

Lu Lans will not go out easily, so he is excluded first;

Breton is only thirteen years old and does not meet the conditions for going to the battlefield, so he is excluded second.

Finally, it is obvious who is the most suitable.

"Will you go to the expedition in the early spring of next year?"

Ronin pretended to be surprised, "Has it been determined?"

Wiggins nodded, "It should be about the same."

Ronin did not comment, Lu Lans has not made a decision yet, and they are so sure that it is too early.

However, in the face of such a question, combined with the character of his predecessor and Ronin's current situation, he laughed and said:

"The battlefield is dangerous. As the heir of the family, Bretton is young and it is indeed not suitable for you to go to war. Your father's injury has not yet healed, and he is not mobile, which is even more inappropriate."

He drank the wine in the glass, "It is my honor to contribute to the family. When it is confirmed that we will go to war next year, if Wushanbao still needs me to command, I will definitely not refuse!"

After saying this, Wiggins and the others smiled with relief, but they didn't know what they thought in their hearts.

Bretton would think that this brother still gave him face;

Diane would still think that Ronin was simple-minded and the threat was still not great;

Wiggins would think that this son had finally grown up and was a little useful, and he could take over when it was time.

For Ronin, he just said nice words.

Don't say that Lu Lans has not confirmed whether to fight in the spring of next year, even if he wants to fight. By then, he will be in Shanlin Town, and there will be many reasons to delay. At most, he will pay some money as a fine and be blamed.

It was too hasty to let him be the commander.

He was a man who was deprived of his inheritance rights. Although he wiped out the wild tribe, this was indeed not a great thing in the eyes of some nobles.

After all, Wiggins was hard to convince, let alone a man with a bad record in the past.

Even if he was pushed to the top, would those nobles listen to his command?

They were not McKen and Rydar. Ronin, who had no prestige, could not command well.

On the battlefield, it was very dangerous for the team not to listen to the command.
