"Resist family punishment?" Lu Yang sneered, raised his hand and stretched out his index finger, and said lightly in front of everyone: "Don't let me be unpredictable, thirty whips, this family punishment can't be added to me at all, how can I resist? what?"

"I want to get you out of your genealogy!" Patriarch Lu Yuanmeng was furious, and didn't listen to Lu Yang's nonsense at all.

"Lu Yang, if you resist the family punishment, you will be expelled from the family tree. Don't mess around and harm your family!" The elder of the punishment hall also shouted sharply.

He knew about Lu Yang's poems written in seven steps and Fengyilou's poems. He also knew that Princess Shouyang rewarded Lu Yang with property, and he even heard that several chapter novels written by Lu Yang were best-selling throughout the imperial dynasty and Kyushu.

This is a remarkable thing. It can be said that such a talented person in the Luqiu Lu family is unique in 400 years.Such a Confucian scholar has such a great future, if he is excluded from the genealogy, then this person will be ruined!

Without waiting for the onlookers' Confucianists to react violently, Lu Yang had already started to untie the Confucian clothes on his body. The Confucian clothes outside his body were bought at a high price from a tailor shop in Moling Mansion. Now he took them off and threw them on the ground. The white and neat inner lining is exposed. This inner lining is like a pair of pajamas. The top and trousers are white and loose.

Lu Yang turned his head to look at his father, Lu Kaitai had already brought up a tray in his hand, and the tray was covered with a piece of blue silk.

Everyone didn't understand what Lu Yang was going to do, and many thought that Lu Yang was going to take off his expensive clothes and was about to lie on the bench and accept family punishment.

For a moment, the face of the elder of the criminal hall softened, he really thought that Lu Yang was going to accept the punishment.

"Huh, you bastard of the side branch, you know the times and dare to resist the punishment of the family, so you think you are impatient?" Several people of the side branch who were fawning on the patriarch shouted.

"I've already said that family punishment cannot be imposed on me!" Lu Yang raised the corner of his mouth and looked at them with a smile, his eyes showed pity.

"What, this thief is not going to be punished, what is he going to do?" Most of the Confucianists in the clan already understood that Lu Yang did not intend to be punished by the clan, but to do other things.

"Damn it, this despicable side thief, does he have anything to rely on?" Lu Yuanmeng's eyelids twitched slightly, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"Put on my official robe, hehe, let them all see the majesty of our old Lu family!" Lu Yang smiled at his father Lu Kaitai.

"Okay, it's time to be majestic and majestic!" Lu Kaitai tore off the blue silk, and a whole set of blue and beautiful official robes fell into everyone's sight, shocking all the onlookers in an instant.

"what is that?"

"It's an official robe, oh my god, that's a ninth-rank official robe!"

"That's right, the magistrate of our county is also wearing a forest blue official robe, which is similar to this!"

"So, the kid from Lu Kaitai's family is already an official?"

"..."

The entire Lu family's ancestral hall was full of voices inside and outside again. Lu Qiu's Lu family has become weaker and weaker in the past hundred years. It is really difficult for the Confucians in the family to produce a great Confucian or an official.

In the Great Kuang Dynasty, there were three provinces and six ministries, and the ninth-rank official rank. Those officials who were usually high-spirited and arrogant were not considered officials.

The Ninth Rank is different. It is already the official official system of the dynasty, and it is the smallest official. Although it is the smallest, it is still an official. It enjoys the privileges of imperial officials, which is not comparable to those who are not official!

Just like this, Lu Yang put on the whole set of official robes one by one in front of the clansmen. The robe, boots, crown, and belt were put on the upper body, and the whole person was immediately full of vigor, and a sense of holy way flowed faintly on the official robe, which made Lu Yang As soon as his temperament changed, he became sacred and majestic, awe-inspiring and inviolable.

Lu Yang's expression became grim. He picked up the wat made of ivory, looked at all the clansmen, and said with a sneer: "Okay, elders in the clan, brothers, everyone must have seen what's going on. , that’s right, Lu Yang has been conferred by Princess Shouyang as an official in the Shouyang Palace to be appointed as the ninth-rank official!”

"Wow..." There was another commotion, and the voices of people were once again loud. More clansmen looked at Lu Yang, and their eyes had changed, either in shock, or in awe, or envy, but jealousy, or more and more. hate.

Lu Yang ignored all these, turned his head to stare at Lu Yuanmeng's shocked face, and sneered again: "If you still want to punish me, please come, hehe, I want to see, who dares to risk the disgrace of the world?" I don't believe in the execution of a ninth-rank official. There are still people in this world who are not afraid of ransacking their homes, stabbing their spouses, or traveling for seven thousand miles. I spent my whole life picking bark and eating wild vegetables in the Hanning Pagoda seven thousand miles away..."

Lu Yang's words are vicious. Hanning Pagoda is a place where people who commit heinous crimes are exiled. It's very cold. Healthy southerners often can't survive there for three years. It's too cold to bear this kind of crime!

Therefore, after Lu Yang's words fell, the expressions of the clansmen all changed. For example, those domestic slaves and ordinary Lu clan members couldn't help imagining in their minds the scene of thousands of miles of wind and snow in the Gobi, the wind of knives blowing their bones, lack of clothes and food, and the scene of the heaviest corvee , couldn't help shivering, his face turned pale.

Even the Confucians in the clan felt the coldness. They looked at Lu Yang, who was dressed in an official robe, and a thought flashed through their minds almost at the same time:

"Punishment is not an official!"

This is the first golden law of the Great Kuang Dynasty. In the Great Kuang Dynasty, civil officials ruled the world, and the class with the most privileges was the officials.

First of all, an official must be a Confucianist. Fame plus official status, this is an official, an official of the Great Kuang Dynasty.

There are tens of thousands of Confucianists in Da Kuang, their pursuit is nothing more than writing books, or governing the world. Of course, these two pursuits are all for a lofty goal, that is, to climb the holy way, become a saint, Xia Ju Ascension, establish an immortal life, and spread the name of immortality.

"Quiet, quiet!!" Lu Yuanmeng's face was ashen. According to the iron law of the dynasty, punishments cannot be imposed on officials, which means that Lu Yang cannot be punished. Officials who are guilty of crimes are punished, not to mention family punishments that are not worth mentioning.

If any clan's clan dared to violate this iron law, then within three days, the imperial court's criminal and arresting officials would come on horseback to arrest that guy who dared to risk the world's disgrace, even gods could not save him.

"It seems that this is all a misunderstanding. Since the imperial dynasty has an iron law that punishments cannot be punished by officials, family punishments will be waived. Everyone has dispersed. The ancestor worship ceremony is about to begin. This should be arranged as soon as possible. Elders, everyone, hurry up and monitor!" Lu Yuanmeng hurriedly made arrangements with his face darkened.

"Patriarch, do you want to agree to my father and son worshiping ancestors in the ancestral hall?" Lu Yang looked at Lu Kaitai with a smug smile on his face.

Lu Yuanmeng suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and squeezed out a smirk: "Of course I agree, how could the patriarch disagree, let the elders of the punishment hall make arrangements together!"

"Alright, this elder will arrange a relatively high position for the two of you!" The elder of the punishment hall was very good at being a man, and hurriedly pushed the boat along.

Lu Kaitai was in high spirits. Seeing Lu Yuanmeng's helpless stinky face, he felt extremely happy, as if all the grievances of these years had been exhaled in one breath, and he felt comfortable all over his body, as if every pore was singing.

Lu Yang was exempted from family punishment, the clan dispersed, and the servants had to arrange for the sacrifices to be placed quickly, otherwise the ancestor worship ceremony would be delayed for a while.

Those descendants of the official branch of the clan all hated and feared Lu Yang, because those with official status could no longer be restrained by the laws of the clan. The case where the person concurrently serves as the patriarch of a clan.

Lu Kaitai smiled, followed Lu Yang out of the compound, and Lu Yang also greeted him with a smile. They also saw the scene of Lu Yang wearing a nine-rank official robe showing his majesty, and they were really honored.

"My son, the patriarch's family is full of bad water, and the fourth son's plan is to suffer for nothing. I don't know if we have gone too far this time?!" Lu Yang took Lu Yang's hand and couldn't help He took good care of him, and was very worried, for fear that Lu Yuanmeng's family would wear small shoes for him and play tricks and tricks.

"Don't worry, I have fame and fame, I am a teacher of great scholars, and I have the princess of the dynasty behind me as a backer. If the patriarch knows the stakes, how dare he play tricks again? Dad and I just pared his face, how could we pass? "Lu Yang smiled, while Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

"This time I am honorable. From now on, members of the Luqiu and Lu clan will never dare to look down on my old Lu family!" Lu Kaitai's heart knots for many years have indeed been unraveled, and his whole person is in good spirits.

Lu Yang also felt the same way, he sighed, and said: "Our father and son originally just wanted to meet the clan, and asked for permission to worship the ancestors in the ancestral hall. Otherwise, there would be no such thing!"

Lu Kaitai laughed: "It's time for the official branch of the clan to have a good meal, otherwise we will really treat us as sick cats and won't show off!"

"That's right, so far, who is our family afraid of coming?!" Lu Yang nodded, deeply convinced.

"Dangdangdang..." The prelude to the ancestor worship ceremony rang, so the clansmen who had arrived at the ancestral hall, whether they were adults, children, men or women, all started to rush towards the ancestral hall.

Because there are too many people worshiping the ancestors each time, men can enter the compound, and women and children can only stay outside the courtyard to watch the ancestor worship ceremony, which is also impossible.

"The ancestor worship ceremony is about to begin. My father and I are going to enter the ancestral hall and worship in front of the ancestor's spiritual tablet. My mother, sister and brother-in-law will feel wronged and wait and see outside!" Lu Yang comforted.

"It's okay, it's a great honor for the two men of our family to enter the ancestral hall this year. Let's just watch from outside!" The Confucians in the clan stand together and worship their ancestors, and they are already satisfied.
