() The first family in the northwest - the Liang family.
Located in Yunfei Province in the northwest, Yunfei Province is one of the three northwest provinces and has the largest area.
To the north is Bei'an Province, an important border area, where Panlong's Backbone is located.
But the area is only a quarter of Yunfei Province.
To the south is Weiyang Province, which is smaller in area.
Therefore, the three northwest provinces have been managed as one province since ancient times.
The Liang family is located in the Duanjian Villa on the Yunwu River in central Yunfei Province.
It sits on the endless Yunfei Plain, thousands of hectares of fertile farmland, and has more than a dozen natural pastures and five-color minerals.
After thousands of years of struggle and inheritance of the Liang family, and with such a favorable geographical location, it is natural for them to stand out among the many families in the northwest.
Nowadays, the only ones who can compete with the Liang family in Yunfei Province are the Huangpu family and the Su family.
These three families almost monopolize the entire Yunfei Province, and they have been related for generations, forming a tripartite force.
As time goes by, the Liang family's status in the northwest seems to be impossible to shake.
Therefore, the Liang family has enough confidence to be so rampant.
Even the imperial court is afraid of him. As for local officials, whether they can continue to do so depends on the face of the Liang family.
Moreover, the armed forces of the Liang family's various farms number about 60,000, making them the most powerful among the northwest families.
Not only that, the Liang family is also a family with many masters.
During the Daqing Dynasty, Liang Junshan of the Liang family once reached the level of the Spiritual God, causing a sensation in the Dragon Soul.
The so-called taking advantage of the right time, place and people, it is natural that the Liang family dominates the northwest.
Today, Liang Yixuan came to the Liang family's ancestral hall early in the morning.
The ancestral hall of the Liang family is located in the main center of the Broken Sword Villa. The entire Broken Sword Villa is built around the ancestral hall, which is the core area of the Liang family. More than 50,000 people from the Liang family gathered here from all over the Dragon Soul Continent for the ceremony.
, the scene is very spectacular. During the ceremony, the descendants of the Liang family are now returning to Broken Sword Villa from all directions. For a time, the Duanjian Villa is very lively.
However, Liang Yixuan today is not as happy as in previous years. There is always a faint worry between his eyebrows.
Three days have passed since Liu Xia framed him that day. During these three days, both the imperial court and the Holy Religion were extremely quiet.
Liang Yixuan, who has experienced countless storms and waves, now smells danger.
This is the calm before the storm. What the Liang family will face next may be the most dangerous storm in the history of the Liang family.
Even Liang Yixuan, the old head of the Liang family who has been in charge of the Liang family for forty years, feels a little depressed.
Unknowingly, Liang Yixuan walked to the square outside the Liang Family Ancestral Hall.
In the square of the Liang family, there is a forest of steles.
If you look around, there are hundreds of them.
Each monument is different in size and shape.
However, these forest of steles are not used to commemorate the ancestors. What are engraved on these stone tablets are the precepts of the Liang family.
It is engraved by the lessons of blood and tears of successive heads of the Liang family.
We should always be alert to the descendants of the Liang family to be prepared for danger in times of peace and not to make the same mistake.
Liang Yixuan walked among these steles with his hands behind his back. He memorized every stone stele here.
But today, Liang Yixuan's heart felt particularly heavy.
He felt proud when he touched these weathered stone monuments and felt the traces of thousands of years of wind and rain.
Looking back, I saw the ancestral hall of the Liang family.
The ancestral hall is located on the central axis of Broken Sword Villa, solemn and majestic.
The entire hall is three feet high and more than ten feet wide. When building this ancestral hall, tens of thousands of large trees more than five meters long were used.
Liang Yixuan still can't forget the feeling of stepping into the ancestral hall for the first time in his life.
Looking at the ancestors of the Liang family, Liang Yixuan felt for the first time that he was extremely proud to be a member of the Liang family.
The Liang family passed into his hands exactly 370 years after the fall of the Daqing Dynasty. After more than 300 years of reconstruction, the Liang family has regained its former strength.
Now, in his hands, the Liang family is at its peak.
He couldn't let the Liang family be destroyed in his hands.
Otherwise, what face would he have to meet the ancestors of the Liang family?
Thinking of this, Liang Yixuan took a deep breath and headed towards the ancestral hall.
After pushing open the door of the ancestral hall, the interior of the ancestral hall was illuminated by thousands of colloidal stones as if it were daytime.
The gold bricks laid on the ground are engraved with the map of the mountains and rivers of the Dragon Soul Continent. Above the eaves, countless lattice stones form the movement of the sun, moon and stars, which is extremely spectacular.
On the surrounding walls, the rankings of ancestors of the Liang family are densely displayed.
Directly to the south is a tall altar, on which the three ancestors of the Liang family are enshrined.
Liang Yixuan walked to the altar when a boy came over holding a jade basin.
After Liang Yixuan cleaned his hands, he respectfully took the three sticks of incense, knelt devoutly in front of the altar table, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times, and did not get up for a long time.
A moment later, more than fifty patriarchs of the Liang family entered the ancestral hall.
Like Liang Yixuan, they all offered incense to pay homage devoutly, until the last patriarch knelt on the ground and after offering incense, Liang Yixuan slowly stood up.
Immediately, there was a rustling sound of clothes behind them. After the big clan leaders stood up, they sat cross-legged.
Even so, the main hall of the Liang Family Ancestral Hall seemed extremely empty.
At this moment, Liang Yixuan looked around for a week, and the clan leaders seemed to notice Liang Yixuan's solemn expression today.
They couldn't help but feel curious.
Liang Yixuan was indeed resolute, iron-blooded and fair in his work. Over the years, the Liang family has been growing continuously under his leadership.
Moreover, he has been very stable in temperament since he was a child, is seasoned in doing things, and is not afraid of the sky falling.
Liang Yixuan always looked indifferent at all times. Even during the fierce battle thirty-five years ago, when he first took over as the head of the family, he was very calm. This situation has never happened to this day.
For a moment, these clan leaders were in a state of confusion, and some of them silently lamented that Liang Yixuan was old after all.
"Everyone, I believe you have heard a little bit about what happened a few days ago. The people led by Zhao Yong attacked several of our farmsteads. Although these farms are no longer in the name of my Liang family, they are all the saints of my Liang family.
A stronghold for teaching. This matter is a trivial matter, but, I
However, we were framed by Liu Xia, and now we have turned against the Holy Cult. Three days ago, I was plotted against by Liu Xia in the manor, and now the Holy Cult has turned against us. This time, Liu Xia has taken every step of the way and has isolated my Liang family.
I believe they will take action soon."
Liang Yixuan said with a solemn tone.
Immediately, many heads of the Liang family in the main hall looked surprised.
It has long been no secret that the Liang family has been in contact with the Holy Cult.
In recent years, they have spent money and effort to help the Holy Cult spread its religion in the northwest. As patriarchs, they naturally understand this.
However, now he can't help being regarded as a traitor by the imperial court and being ostracized by the Holy Religion. This is really very unfavorable for the Liang family's situation.
"Master, although this holy religion has been expanding in the northwest over the past few years, it has not been of much help to our Liang family. Why not just turn back and declare war on the holy religion? Maybe we can make the court change its view of us.
Reversing today’s passive situation.”
Immediately, a family head clasped his fists and said.
"I also feel that at this point, we can only choose to stand aside. The imperial court wants to destroy the holy religion, and at this moment, we and the holy religion are falling out. It is better to help the court to destroy the holy religion, maybe we can get rid of the merits, although
It has caused some losses to my Liang family, but at this moment, the strong man has broken his wrist and is in some labor pain. However, it is still a way."
"Head of the family, the power of the holy religion is really unable to fight against the imperial court. Moreover, they have never believed in my Liang family. It is better to take this opportunity to destroy them."
At that moment, many clan leaders agreed.
"Hey, it's too late."
Liang Yixuan sighed and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Why?"
Immediately, several big clan leaders asked curiously.
"When I considered joining the Holy Cult, I just thought that when the Holy Cult grows stronger, it will definitely attack the Tai Chi Dynasty. We can profit from it. If we can grasp it well, we can take advantage of the war and let the Liang family aspire to be the leader of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.
It's not impossible.
This time Liu Xia counterattacked, and we lost this opportunity. Maybe you all think that if we counterattack, we can get rid of today's embarrassing situation. But you all thought wrong. Did you know that Liu Xia turned out to be
The Holy Son of the Holy Religion?"
Liang Yixuan said lightly.
"What!!!"
At that moment, all the elders were stunned.
Liu Xia was the prince of the Tianji Dynasty, and now he was the holy son of the Holy Cult. These two identities simply pinched the neck of the Liang family.
"I don't know which side Liu Xia is on. But I am sure of one thing. From Liu Xia's debut to now, he has always been punished. No matter whether he is loyal to the imperial court or the Holy Religion, he will deal with our Liang family. So, everyone
Don't have any illusions. No matter whether we turn to the imperial court or continue to be loyal to the Holy Religion, we cannot
Yes. The only way out is to fight Liu Xia to the death. I have asked Wen Yun, Wen Chang, and Wen Hong to join forces with Longdu officials to impeach Liu Xia. He has an affair with the Holy Cult this time, no matter what
For whatever purpose, becoming the Holy Son of the Holy Religion is enough for him to drink from a pot. In this way, we have the possibility of turning over."
Liang Yixuan said lightly.
Liang Wenyun was the Minister of Punishment in Longdu and a member of the Sixth Department. Wenchang and Wenhong were also senior officials of the Liang family in Longdu, and were both in the third rank.
You can directly submit a letter to the emperor. They have worked hard in Longdu for many years, and naturally they have their party members who jointly submit a letter to impeach Liu Xia. Just by relying on the crime of colluding with the Holy Religion, Liu Xia will never be able to recover.
As long as they wait until the imperial edict is issued, Liu Xia will be dead.
Especially since he was the scapegoat and the one who took the blame in Huilongdu. Now, not only did he not go back, but he joined the Holy Cult. This is the crime of deceiving the emperor.
Moreover, Liu Xia was just a rootless prince after all, and had no power of his own in Longdu. It would be easy to move to him.
Thinking of this, the patriarchs felt a little relieved.
"Everyone, now we have five more options to turn around and fight to the death. Maybe we still have a chance of winning. I hope that everyone can tide over the difficulties with me like we did thirty-five years ago. The Liang family cannot be defeated by our generation.
Here! Otherwise, how could you and I have the dignity to meet our ancestors?"
Liang Yixuan stood up slowly and said firmly.
"We are willing to work with the family leader to overcome the difficulties."
Immediately, all the big clan leaders stood up, clasped their fists and said.
Liang Yixuan nodded happily and said: "After everyone goes back, start preparations. I believe that a big war will begin soon. The Liang family will definitely win!"
"The Liang family will definitely win...!"
Immediately, the big clan leaders shouted with indignation.
