That is Linyi in Shandong Province in later generations.
When the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty, it was merged into Qingzhou.
In the Warring States Period, the seven heroes competed for hegemony, but the North and the South were in opposition, with Chu and Qi co-holding.
When the First Emperor came to Hunyuan, unified China, and implemented the system of prefectures and counties, Langya County would have its name.
During the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties, it became the jurisdiction of Xuzhou.
Even in the original history, both the Three Kingdoms and the Two Jin Dynasties followed this political affiliation.
And such a land with a full and wonderful history also contains three famous families.
Yan family, Wang family, and...
Zhuge family.
They either dominate the present, or dominate the future, or even become the top clan that will last for thousands of years.
Among them, the Wang family originated in the Western Han Dynasty, and the founder Wang Ji is the protagonist of the idiom "Playing the crown to celebrate".
The most famous direct descendant is Wang Xizhi.
But even this sage of calligraphy is just one page in the glorious chapter of his family.
Because the Langya Wang family is truly the most famous family in China!
In the future history of the Celestial Dynasty, from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it lasted for more than 1,700 years and continued to flourish. During this period, there were a total of thirty-six queens and thirty-five prime ministers...
It has become so prominent that it can no longer be added to the list within the sea.
As for the Zhuge family, their ancestor was Zhuge Feng. Although he was well-known in Langya at this time, he was insignificant in the world.
It will have to wait patiently until the Three Kingdoms period to truly become a top-notch family.
At that time, the Zhuge family became the Chinese version of the Rothschild family.
The three brothers Zhuge and his sect, known by later generations as "one dragon, one tiger and one dog", served in the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu at the same time, forming a tripartite bet.
But what you need to know is...
Even Zhuge Dan, the third child, who was almost overshadowed by the charm of his two brothers in the eyes of future generations, was still a hero for a time!
In the late Wei Dynasty, he held the position of Marquis Gaoping, General of the East Conquest, Yitong Sansi, Commander-in-Chief of the Yangzhou Military, and shouldered the overall responsibility for the border wars with Wu.
A vivid contrast in status is the existence of vassal kings such as Wu Sangui in the early Qing Dynasty.
Even Sima Zhao who usurped the throne had to find a way to force this dog brother to rebel first.
But at this time, Langya's well-deserved number one family was the Yan family!
After all, this was still the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Since Yan Chuo, the prefect of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, moved to Langya, over a hundred years, the Yan family has become one of the top families in Langya and even Xuzhou.
Because their ancestor Yan Hui!
They are the descendants of Fu Sheng!
Yan Hui, the first of the seventy-two disciples of the Confucian sage!
In front of such a great leader, Wang Ji, an admonishing doctor, would definitely have to back off a little.
As for Zhuge Feng, the ancestor of the Zhuge family, he was a mere Sili captain and had no reputation at all.
Of course, in the near future.
However, these two families completely pushed the Yan family away.
Even now, the Langya Wang family is actually only lacking in reputation, and its real strength is not inferior to that of the Yan family.
...
After listening to Zhang Rao's words, everyone in the tent had different expressions.
People like Wu Sheng, who were ignorant and fearless, still curled their lips and didn't care.
But knowledgeable people like Yu Jinxu Fang all looked solemn.
Yan Hui...
The descendant family of Fu Sheng...
They know the weight of what they represent.
Pan Zhang couldn't help but look at Zhang Rao and asked:
"Major Zhang, how did you know this?"
"Remember the discussion before the last attack on the city, you don't seem to be very familiar with Linzi..."
Hearing this, Zhang Rao fell silent and stopped talking.
"Speak." Wu Sheng looked impatient, snorted coldly, and assisted Pan Zhang again:
"A real man should speak and do things clearly and directly. Why are you so hesitant?"
This unceremonious tone, as sharp as a question, made Zhang Rao feel embarrassed, and a strange blush appeared on his face.
He looked around and saw everyone looking at him, their eyes full of inquiry and curiosity, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
That’s it! Just say it!
He felt cruel in his heart, gritted his teeth secretly, and said directly: "Actually, I..."
"We are all brothers of the Heavenly Army, so there is no need to question Major Zhang's words." However, Wang Zheng directly cut off his words: "I believe him."
To be honest, he scolded Wu Sheng: "What do you care about the origin of the story!"
"What a troublesome person!"
The other party made it clear that he had something to hide. Since he was his subordinate, Wang Zheng did not want to embarrass the other party.
In fact, there is nothing to say. Even the school officials in Linzi did not know that the person standing behind the Yan family in Linzi was the Langyayan family. Zhang Rao, who had never set foot in Linzi City, knew it clearly. It is said that a branch of the Yan family settled here only forty or fifty years ago.
It is very likely that Zhang Rao's ancestors may have come to Qingzhou with him at that time.
As for his identity, since his surname is Zhang and not Yan, what else can he think about?
"If it is really a branch of the Langyayan clan." At this time, Yu Jin also spoke: "Then it really cannot be moved!"
"Why?" Wu Sheng, who had just been scolded and bowed his head in disgust, finally couldn't help it and argued: "We have all rebelled, why are we afraid of a branch of a big family?"
"Still a big family in Xuzhou?" Wu Sheng seemed very dissatisfied: "The Langyayan clan, is it more powerful than the emperor?"
Hearing this, Wang Zheng smiled mockingly:
"Compared to the Han emperor, these top aristocratic families are indeed more difficult to deal with."
Generally, when a unified dynasty was founded, the imperial power was overwhelming. However, from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty, this was not the case.
When the Eastern Han Dynasty was at its peak, Liu Xiu did not dare to suppress the family too much, let alone the end of the dynasty now?
At the scene, it may be Wang Zheng, a later Han Chinese, who is more aware of the terrible power these wealthy families secretly hide.
Ordinary gentry and gentry will do whatever they want. No matter whether their families are confiscated or their families are exterminated, it probably won't cause much backlash.
But when you reach the level of the Langyayan clan, especially if you have an ancestor who is a literary idol, even if it is a branch...
If it moves, it's like poking an oversized hornet's nest!
Wang Zheng would naturally not take the risk of doing something that Liu Xiu wouldn't dare to do.
At least, not yet.
If the Linzi branch of the Yan family is really wiped out, his power will certainly increase immediately, and his reputation will probably spread out of Qingzhou and spread all over the world.
But it will also become a thorn in the side of the Yan family and other major families!
After all, he crossed the line.
At present, his power is not great, and he is in Qingzhou, and the Yan family in Xuzhou is beyond his reach. The other families are either helpless, or they don't care about it, and will only write down this account first.
But Wang Zheng will not stay in Qingzhou forever, let alone only Qingzhou and Linzi.
Once their power grows, these nobles will inevitably take the lead in setting up a line, allowing the separatist forces such as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to attack together, and they will encircle and suppress them at all costs!
but...
Wang Zheng is also unwilling to be a person who enters the treasure mountain and returns empty-handed.
If he couldn't cut off the blood and flesh from the noble family, wouldn't his gains from capturing Linzi be greatly reduced?
If the richest man of the Yan family is completely let go, how can it be said to be cutting blood and flesh?
After pondering for a moment, Wang Zhengdao: "The Yan family can't make any big moves!"
"General, why are you even..."
Wu Sheng didn't hear the implication, but he still yelled to himself, but Xu Fang's eyes lit up as he heard it.
Yu Jin said not to move, but Wang Zheng said not to move greatly.
Just one word, but the meaning is completely different.
"What do you mean, General?"
While secretly kicking Wu Sheng's feet hard to shut him up, Xu Fang turned to Wang Zheng and said, "Are we going to attack the Yan family too?"
"Hey!"
Wang Zheng roared softly, stood up, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and looked around at everyone:
"Wu Sheng said something right!"
"I have created all the rebellion against the Liu family."
"Is it possible that a mere branch of the Yan family is still in trouble?"
These words were spoken with overwhelming domineering force, as if the three armies were invincible, and everyone was speechless for a moment.
