Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Wang Luo didn't care whether Yu Xiaobo was sincere in apologizing.

Because probably half of the apologies in the world are insincere. This is especially true for those who apologize after intentionally doing evil.

It's nothing more than being forced by public order and good customs, being forced by the accusations of thousands of people, being forced by big figures in power... No matter how sincere the tone is when saying sorry; sorry, etc. People will inevitably still think like this in their hearts:

Damn, that's so fucking unlucky.

So inner thoughts never matter, as long as all the procedures that an apology should be performed are performed, that is enough.

At present, it seems that Yu Xiaobo's ability to promote the eight-way fortune-cutting formation is average, but his ability to arrange an apology ceremony is still remarkable. The messenger, the messenger, and the gift giver who was scheduled to come later, this apology banquet was arranged like Mr. Yu's wedding.

In addition, there is something special about choosing the apology banquet at [Cai Yixuan]. It was a time-honored brand with a history of thousands of years, and the earliest signboard name could even be traced back to before the catastrophe. According to legend, the earliest serious disagreements among the founders of the battle against the famine occurred when Lord Zhi Yao chose Cai Yixuan and held a banquet to reconcile the conflicts. Only then could the heroes unite and complete the great cause of the battle against the famine.

Since then, Cai Yixuan has become the first choice place for people to resolve conflicts. However, except for those with high positions or wealth, it has been difficult for ordinary people to book a place at Cai Yixuan.

The people who are expected to attend are indeed of high moral character and have the qualifications to bear witness. Among them were senior Su Lao who was above the principal level in Bolan Manor, two professors from the academy, senior officials from the Governor's Mansion, and even the Yuanying old man who retired from the Golden Deer Hall and returned to his hometown...

It should be said that the Stone Street Autonomy Chapter, which caused all the conflicts, does not deserve such high-level treatment. This was obviously not just about Yu Xiaobo's face, but the Governor's Office added value to this reconciliation in order to ensure the absolute stability of Rongcheng before Mo Yu arrived at Rongcheng.

At this point, there is not only the original need for reconciliation between Shijie and Bolanzhuang, but also the full set of rituals staged by Yu Xiaobo, and the general background of the visit of the chief executive of the Ministry of Internal Affairs... Whether Yu Xiaobo's apology is sincere or not is indeed unimportant.

——

Yu Xiaobo's apology banquet was booked in a hurry - on the second night after Wang Luo received the letter.

And when Wang Luo faced the setting sun in the evening and arrived at the oldest restaurant street in Jinghua District, there were already people waiting at the street entrance.

They were two young maids with gorgeous dresses, elegant makeup, and almost identical looks. When they saw Wang Luo, they quickly came over, and the aura ribbons around their waists each pulled out a rainbow-like trajectory. Then they respectfully wished Wang Luo a blessing and said softly: "Master Wang, please come this way..."

Wang Luo nodded and stepped to follow.

From the street entrance to Caiyixuan, the road of more than 100 meters is decorated beautifully. There are delicate petals on the road. The green trees on both sides are also swaying, sending a refreshing breeze. You can faintly hear the melodious breeze in the wind. The sound of a woman singing... For a moment, Wang Luo felt that he was the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Rongcheng was waiting for him!

But this was only part of Yu Xiaobo's apology ceremony.

Therefore, Wang Luo turned a blind eye to all this and followed the two twin-like maids into Cai Yixuan.

After stepping inside, Wang Luo immediately felt several sharp glances. The emotions behind them ranged from curiosity to scrutiny to almost naked hostility.

These are the "famous people" invited by Yu Xiaobo, or appointed by the Governor's Palace to bear witness. The highest-ranking among them is an old man with gray hair and gray hair, a wrinkled face, but a tall and strong body.

This person's name is Bai Xiangli. Although he looks like a veteran on the battlefield, he has served as the chief priest of the Law Department of the Golden Deer Hall for 15 years. He is a well-known master of law in the five states and hundreds of countries. He has personally presided over the ceremony no less than 20 times. National festivals such as the Deer Festival and the Guiyuan Festival are as close to the Great Law as those of the great masters of the past.

As for the chief priest of the Ceremony Department, the starting requirement is Nascent Soul cultivation. Compared with the chief priest Bai, even Han Xingyan on the side pales in comparison.

But in Wang Luo's view, this Bai Yuanying is nothing more than one of today's complicated backgrounds.

So he didn't care at all that he was later than any of the celebrities present, and walked straight into the venue - at this time, there was only a large round dining table arranged in the lobby. The celebrities sat at the table, with attendants behind them.

Then, Yu Xiaobo, another protagonist of this grand performance, was standing respectfully at the dining table. His iconic elegance had long since disappeared under the influence of celebrities, and he seemed to be serving tea with a humble temperament. The boy.

Ah.

Wang Luo couldn't help but smile. He was worthy of being a young master from an aristocratic family. He was well-trained. He could wear elegance on his face on weekdays, and he could naturally wear humility at this time.

When he saw Wang Luo coming over, Yu Xiaobo took the lead and kowtowed with a dull thud.

"Young Master Wang! It was all my fault before! I'm really sorry!"

Wang Luo was even more happy when he saw this, and nodded immediately: "I understand, then I'll go."

However, as soon as he turned around, he heard a crisp sound and Han Xingyan stepped in front of him.

The leader of Lili Hall was helpless at this time: "Just treat it as a performance. Please show your face and watch the whole show."

Wang Luo smiled and said: "This is true."

Han Xingyan added: "His father Yu Wannian personally facilitated this matter, so this is actually Bolan Village asking you for reconciliation at Shijie, so..."

Wang Luo then nodded: "Okay, then let me taste Cai Yixuan's craftsmanship."

——

As Han Xingyan said, this is a high-level performance.

When Wang Luo finally took his seat under Han Xingyan's persuasion, everything on the table returned to the appearance of a normal banquet. Celebrities from all walks of life were drinking wine, chatting and laughing. Yu Xiaobo kept apologizing to Wang Luo while chatting with the celebrities around him.

Resolving grudges was the main topic at the dinner table. The celebrities either sternly admonished Yu Xiaobo, or joked with Wang Luo, and then gradually expanded the topic, from Stone Street to Rongcheng to Zhuwang and even Five States and Hundreds of Kingdoms. The news about the development of Rongcheng, which is still theoretically top secret, gradually became richer as people talked and laughed with each passing cup.

The atmosphere was warm and beautiful, as if all hatred was gradually disappearing in the laughter.

Finally, when the dishes on the table were in a mess, a maid in colorful clothes came in carrying a pot of tea.

With her appearance, the chatter and laughter on the table gradually faded away.

Because the ceremony finally came to the last and most important part.

The maid poured a cup of tea for Yu Xiaobo. As the faint fragrance of tea spread, all the odors in the lobby disappeared in an instant.

Wang Luo's heart moved: "Wanqing tea?"

This tea is originally produced in Jingzhou, a place where prehistoric times have not yet disappeared. Tea has no other magical properties, but once it is put into water, it can immediately purify all impurities, leaving only the fragrance of tea. So it was often used as an antidote at first. But soon after, a unique culture of "one cup of tea disappears all grudges" gradually emerged.

This culture has been circulating since before the Heavenly Tribulation. Unexpectedly, today, Jingzhou has fallen into desolation, and Wanqing Tea is almost extinct. It is difficult to cultivate and survive in the five states on the right side of the sky. Yu Xiaobo was still able to bring out such treasures.

Yu Xiaobo also regained his composure, picked up the tea cup and said: "Master Wang, everything that happened in the past was due to greed and ignorance. I will definitely take responsibility for everything I have done, as many seniors present can testify!"

After saying that, he drank the tea in one gulp.

At the same time, the maid handed another cup of tea to Wang Luo.

As long as this cup of tea is drunk, all the grudges between him and Yu Xiaobo will be settled.

However, as his eyes turned to the crystal clear tea, Wang Luo realized.

Grudges should naturally be settled, but never in such an understatement.
