Ms. Rabbit seemed to accept his reason. To such a banquet, a family would usually only send one child, so Ye Feng's reason was indeed reasonable.
Through constant conversations with Ms. Rabbit, Ye Feng had gained a certain understanding of this kind of banquet.
There are four top families in Kyoto: Ye, Lin, Xiao, and Chu!
These four families used the four stars: Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger and Black Tortoise as their family symbols.
Most of the other families are affiliated with these four top families, and you can get a glimpse of this on the masks they wear. The masks of the Ye family faction have a blue dragon pattern under the right corner of the eye, the masks of the Lin family faction have a red bird pattern, the masks of the Xiao family faction have a white tiger pattern, and the masks of the Chu family faction have a black tortoise pattern!
The aristocratic families without factions have either begun to decline or are unwilling to rely on the four top aristocratic families and huddle together for warmth.
As for the wealthy families, they basically have to rely on powerful aristocratic families to avoid being swallowed up by other aristocratic families. They have to wait to develop into aristocratic families before they can truly gain a foothold in Kyoto.
As for Miss Rabbit's family, they had just arrived in Kyoto not long ago and their foundation was not solid, but they were noticed by a noble family who wanted to make them a member of the family.
That family was only a low-ranking one in Kyoto, but even this low-ranking family was not something that could be resisted by a wealthy family like Miss Rabbit's family that had just arrived in Kyoto and had no foundation.
There are certain rules for a wealthy family to rely on a noble family. The first big tree they rely on determines the upper limit of the family.
The family you first attached yourself to is basically unchangeable, and other families will not accept wealthy families that have been attached to other families. After all, no family wants to raise an ungrateful person, and this is an unspoken understanding among the various families in Kyoto.
Ms. Rabbit's father didn't want his family to be limited to being a low-ranking family in Kyoto. That's why Ms. Rabbit wanted to cling to the young master of the Ye family and become a subsidiary of the four top families. Even if you haven't become a family yet, it's enough to gain a foothold in Kyoto.
This banquet is a rare opportunity for Ms. Rabbit to meet the children of top families. Of course, except for the Ye family, the other three top families have not yet decided on their young masters, and most of the young children cannot help her. Only by becoming a young master can she have enough say in this family.
Or you may be extremely loved in the family, with countless elders willing to support you.
"You said that if you were the young master of the Ye family, you would help me, right?"
Ms. Rabbit looked at Ye Feng expectantly. Before Ye Feng could answer, she muttered to herself in a self-deprecating manner:
"Why would I imagine that a person wearing a fox mask is the young master of the Ye family? I'm really crazy."
