Nine Pins Immortal Road

Chapter 825 Splendid Formation
Liang Zhaohuang listened to Wei Donglai's words, and immediately understood why the other party's face was so ugly.

Since this 'Snow Charm' is the vanguard of the northern barbarian invasion, then Liang Zhaohuang met in Youzhou, which means that the barbarian invasion this year has already begun.

This is not good news, and it naturally makes Wei Donglai, a local prefect and monk in Youzhou, like Wei Donglai, look ugly.

"Two fellow Taoists." Wei Donglai couldn't sit still at this time, and he didn't want to continue to participate in this small banquet, and said bluntly: "I have to go to the patriarch and report the news. The Cloud Mountain Range."

As he spoke, he looked at Liang Zhaohuang and said, "Your fellow Daoist Liang, can you lend me this 'Snow Charm'?"

Liang Zhaohuang knew what the other party meant, and wanted to use this 'Xue Mei' to report the news to confirm his words, so he naturally didn't mean to refuse, and directly handed over the sealed orb, saying: "Your Daoist Wei needs it, just take it."

Wei Donglai took the orb, stood up, with a sincere expression on his face, bowed to Liang Zhaohuang, and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Liang."

"Don't worry, fellow daoists, my Wei family will fully support brother Zhaojun this time, and seize the position of Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of War."

"Haha... Everyone is a family, so don't say anything polite."

Eldest brother Liang Zhaojun said with a smile:
"Wei Daoyou has something to do, let's get busy first."

"At the next family's place, I will entertain myself."

"it is good!"

Wei Donglai didn't say any more, and left in a hurry after a ceremony.

Seeing the other party leave, Liang Zhaohuang looked at the elder brother in a blink of an eye, and said in amazement: "Elder brother, why do I feel that you have an unusual relationship with this fellow Taoist Wei Donglai?"

"Haha... Seventeenth brother, did you see it?"

Eldest brother Liang Zhaojun smiled and shook his head, saying:
"Actually, it's nothing. I'm an official in the Tianjing court. Didn't I bring Ruizhao and Xiangbin with me?"

"Then, Ruizhao and a daughter of a fellow Taoist from Donglai saw each other, and they intended to form a Taoist couple."

"My friend Donglai and I have already agreed."

"This time, I also want to take this opportunity to talk to Seventeenth Brother and ask the family to prepare the dowry."

Hearing this, Liang Zhaohuang couldn't help nodding his head slightly. It turned out that they had formed a son and daughter in-laws, no wonder the friendship was so good.

Liang Ruizhao is the son of the eldest brother Liang Zhaojun. Since the marriage was agreed by the eldest brother Liang Zhaojun, as long as there are no major problems, Liang Zhaohuang naturally has no reason to refuse.

Thinking of this, he showed a smile on his face, toasted his eldest brother Liang Zhaojun, and said, "I want to congratulate my elder brother, and I am happy to have a beautiful daughter-in-law."

"Haha..." The eldest brother Liang Zhaojun smiled on his face, picked up his glass to drink, and said with a smile: "There is no rush for this matter. After the battle with the barbarians is over and the position of Buyuanwailang is determined, we will go back and talk about it." Discuss the marriage of their youngest son and daughter."

Liang Zhaohuang nodded slightly when he heard the words, and said, "That's fine."

Speaking of Liang Ruizhao's matter, Liang Zhaohuang was not in a hurry to ask about going north to fight the barbarians, but asked: "Speaking of which, elder brother is here, why didn't Ruizhao and Xiangbin follow?"

Eldest brother Liang Zhaojun shook his head and said, "The two of them are too weak to follow along, so they might as well stay in Tianjing and practice."

Liang Zhaohuang nodded slightly, and asked again: "Nephew Ruizhao is about to have a Taoist partner, so I wonder how Xiangbin has been in Tianjing these years?"

Although it is said that the elder brother Liang Zhaojun sends messages back to the family every year, delivering various messages.

However, it is mainly based on the intelligence of the various fronts in the Xian Dynasty. As for the specific matters of the three of them in Tianjing, they will only talk about them in the summons when they encounter some major events, and they will not talk about ordinary trivial matters in the summons. of.

Therefore, Liang Zhaohuang is really not very clear about the situation of Liang Ruizhao, Liang Xiangbin and others.

Hearing Liang Zhaohuang talk about Liang Xiangbin, the elder brother Liang Zhaojun showed a strange look on his face, nodded, then shook his head, and said: "That boy Xiangbin is much better than Ruizhao, not only has his cultivation improved rapidly, he has even established a foundation now At the peak, the three levels of spirit, energy and spirit are completed, and it is time to cultivate the five-element spirit body and hit the Golden Core Realm."

"Besides, that kid can get along well in Tianjing, he is very popular, and he has made good friends with those princesses and princes."

"It is said that he also joined a 'Splendid Society'."

"Splendid Association?" Liang Zhaohuang's complexion changed slightly, and he asked, "What is this 'Splendid Association'? Is there any problem?"

Eldest brother Liang Zhaojun shook his head when he heard the words, and said, "Don't worry, I checked with someone, and this 'Splendid Association' is a society where a group of sons and daughters of high-ranking clans from princesses, county masters, princes, princes, etc. came together to mess around. What a big deal."

"It is said that the name of this Splendid Association is also taken from the meaning of a bright future. These people gather together every day, and most of them hold banquets and give advice to the world. Take the pride of the Western Regions."

Hearing what his elder brother said, Liang Zhaohuang felt a little relieved. It looked like a group of noble-born royals, aristocratic families, and powerful children gathered together to brag.

However, Liang Zhaohuang still frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Brother, after the battle with the barbarians is over and the position of Wai Lang, a member of the military department, is determined, and the elder brother returns to Tianjing, let Xiangbin return to the family. Are you close to cultivating the Five Elements Spirit Body?"

"Then it's just a good time to return to the family to practice in seclusion, and strive to cultivate the five elements of the spirit body and form a top-grade golden core."

"Besides, it just so happens that Ruizhao is going to get married, marrying a girl from the Wei family. When the time comes, let Xiangbin go with him and escort Ruizhao to the Hui family to get married."

Eldest brother Liang Zhaojun couldn't help but change his face when he heard Liang Zhaohuang's words. He looked at him and said, "Seventeenth brother, are you still worried about the 'Splendid Association'?"

Liang Zhaohuang nodded, then shook his head again, and said: "It's not just about the 'Splendid Association', Tianjing is the center of the Xian Dynasty, the water is too deep, and there are many secrets, details, and great things hidden in it. Crocodile, Xiangbin loaded it headlong into it like this, and he doesn't know what kind of snare or predator he will fall into."

"A little carelessness may even implicate the entire family."

"Our Liang family seems to be developing well and even controls a county, but our foundation is still too shallow after all. It can't be compared with those royal families, aristocratic families, and old county families who have been passed down for thousands of years."

"If you don't pay attention and get involved in some accident, it is very likely that the family's development and growth over the years will fall short!"

Listening to Liang Zhaohuang's words, elder brother Liang Zhaojun couldn't help frowning deeply, nodded, and said, "Okay, I understand."

"When this matter is over and I return to Tianjing, I will ask Xiangbin to escort Ruizhao and the two to go back to the Xinhai County family first."

Liang Zhaohuang nodded slightly, and said: "Brother, after nephew Ruizhao and grandnephew Xiangbin return to the family, they should stay in the family to practice. I will send two other family members to the capital to obey the orders of the elder brother, and let the rest of the family go to the capital." The children have seen and seen the prosperity of Tianjing, the center of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty."

"no problem."

The elder brother Liang Zhaojun naturally nodded in agreement, without any extra comments.

Liang Ruizhao and Liang Xiangbin have been following him in Tianjing for more than 20 years. Now it is the turn of the other children of the family.

After talking about the matter of Liang Ruizhao and Liang Xiangbin, the two drank a few more cups of spiritual wine, and then turned the topic back to the matter of going north to fight the barbarians, making meritorious service, and winning the position of fourth-rank member of the Ministry of War.

After all, for the two of them, this trip to Youzhou is the real thing, the more important thing.

The matter of Liang Ruizhao, Liang Xiangbin and others accompanying them was just a trivial matter, and the two decided after discussing it.

"Brother, speaking of which, you have sent a message that there are two other monks who are from the county prefect family, and you are competing with you for the position of the fourth-rank member of the Ministry of War."

"As for the specific origins of the two men, information on combat power, etc., do you have any reliable information from the elder brother?"

Liang Zhaohuang changed the subject, and first asked about the situation of the eldest brother's two competitors.

"Of course there is." Eldest brother Liang Zhaojun nodded upon hearing the words, his face straightened, and said, "The two people who compete with me for the position of fourth-rank member of the Ministry of War are Li, and they are fourth-rank officials from Daifang County, Pingzhou. The family of the county prefect, the family holds the position of sheriff of Daifang County, and it has been passed down for thousands of years."

"The governor of Pingzhou?" Liang Zhaohuang couldn't help but change his face when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice, "Then he has taken advantage of the geographical advantage?"

The three northern states of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Pingzhou in the Great Jin Dynasty were the main forces fighting and killing the northern barbarians.

The lord of the Sipin County in Pingzhou Xiajun knew that he had fought against the barbarians for many years. He was definitely the main force in fighting the barbarians and had rich experience.

Moreover, his family is in Pingzhou, and it can be said that he has an advantage in terms of location and numbers when dealing with the barbarians!
How can we fight?
"Brother has absolutely no chance of winning!"

Seeming to see Liang Zhaohuang's doubts, the eldest brother Liang Zhaojun said with a smile: "Seventeenth brother is worried that his family will help and occupy the best location. I have no chance of winning?"

"That's right." Liang Zhaohuang nodded slightly, and said, "But looking at the big brother's attitude, he doesn't seem too worried. Could there be something else to say?"

"Haha, of course..." Eldest Brother Liang Zhaojun nodded with a smile, and said, "Although this Master Li's family is located in Pingzhou, the location is convenient and the family helps each other, but this is not only his strength, but also his weakness. .”

"The central government of the Xian Dynasty has teamed up with the three prefectures of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Pingzhou to plan a counterattack against the barbarians. Naturally, there are requirements for the aristocratic families and prefects in these three prefectures."

"Like the local and powerful family of the Li family in Daifang County, the imperial court has stipulated requirements for achievements and meritorious service."

"If in this battle, local nobles such as the Li family fail to achieve the required record and meritorious service in fighting and fighting with the barbarians, they will all be punished by the imperial court and the local aristocratic family. "

"So, the Li family's ability to support that real Li is also limited."

"I can't even say that his family still needs the help of this real Li to win enough achievements and merits."

Liang Zhaohuang said, shaking his head, and said: "What's more, although the position of Wai Lang, a member of the fourth-rank military department, is important, it also has its limits. That is, the Li family is willing to use the records and merits of their own family to help that Li family. Real people compete for this official position, but the achievements and merits they can show must be limited."

"After all, if you really make [-] meritorious service, you can directly send that Li Zhenren to the position of fourth-rank military member Wailang, but the consumption and gain will not be directly proportional."
