Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 144 Conspiracy with Liu He
"Master Liang, this is of course a great idea, and I, Tang, naturally agree. But let's not beat around the bush. This matter is of great importance. If we are not careful, it will be a serious crime of exterminating the family. Just based on your words, Master Liang, we are really a little..."

The man did not continue speaking, but his meaning was already very clear.

Liang Hao narrowed his eyes and glanced at the people in front of him.

"What? Are you still suspecting that I, Liang, have colluded with Liu He to frame you?"

There was obvious anger in the tone of these words. No one dared to offend Liang Hao at this time, so they hurried to explain.

"Brother Liang, don't think too much. We are all old friends, and several of our families have known each other for decades. How can I not trust you, Brother Liang? But this matter is too shocking after all, and it is understandable that it is difficult to fully accept it at the moment, Brother Liang, don't you think so?"

Liang Hao snorted coldly, his expression slightly relaxed: "Then in your opinion, how can we believe it?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Not long after, an older man stepped forward and said with a salutation, "I wonder if the divine envoy sent by the Great Sage Master is still in your house?"

When Liang Hao heard this, he immediately understood what they wanted to do.

Those words said before were probably just excuses. After all, the real purpose was to meet the envoy of God in person. To put it bluntly, these families were still unwilling to be controlled by the Liang family. They were also thinking of finding an opportunity to make themselves the leaders of this plan. At the very least, they would not be inferior to the Liang family.

Liang Hao's brain was working rapidly.

The identity of the envoy of God was special and his origin was extraordinary. Although he had had a pleasant conversation with him before and got along well with him, the other families were not much weaker than his own Liang family. Some of them had a better personal relationship with the envoy of God when they were in their previous identities than he did, so Liang Hao was still worried at this time.

If they were allowed to meet the envoy of God at this time, and if they offered some tempting conditions, Liang Hao could not guarantee whether the envoy of God would suddenly change his mind.

Although the families were usually harmonious and could basically unite at critical moments to deal with people like Liu He who hindered the development and growth of their aristocratic families, private intrigue was always inevitable, especially in such a major event that could be said to be related to the glory of their family in the next few decades or even hundreds of years. No one would give in easily. Liang Hao, the head of the Liang family, knew this very well.

"We must not let them see the messenger of God!"

Liang Hao made up his mind and thought quickly about how to explain to everyone to ensure that these people would not betray him.

"What's wrong? Doesn't Lord Liang want us to see His Excellency the Divine Envoy?"

One of the clan leaders asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone, and when the others heard this, their faces instantly turned somewhat unsightly.

"This...how could this happen..." Liang Hao broke out in sweat on his forehead and became anxious.

At this moment, a figure hurriedly ran into the conference room. Liang Hao took a closer look and found that it was a servant of the messenger of God. His heart suddenly tightened.

Liang Hao did not dare to neglect him. Although he was just a servant beside the envoy of God, he served the envoy and had more opportunities to speak than himself. He did not dare to look down on him.

Liang Hao quickly stood up from his seat, went up to him, bowed and asked, "What instructions does the Lord Divine Envoy have?"

Seeing how respectful he was to the visitor, everyone quieted down. They wanted to see what the mysterious big shot who suddenly sent his men over wanted to say, perhaps this would give them some opportunity.

The visitor stood at the door with his body bowed, and respectfully saluted the clan leaders inside, then said: "The envoy of God said that he already knows about what you gentlemen are discussing and arguing about here." Everyone's expressions froze when they heard the words, and they became more respectful, while Liang Hao became more nervous, and the others became more expectant.

The servant raised his head slightly to take a look at everyone's expressions, then quickly lowered his head back down.

"The Lord Divine Envoy said that you are so enthusiastic about the uprising, which is very noble. We, the Taiping Dao, are very happy to welcome you. He should have come in person to thank you all, but he is in poor health after the long journey, so he needs to rest for a few days. After the great event is successful, he will definitely toast to you all in person and report to the Great Sage Master to reward you according to your merits! This Langtiao County is the first battle of the uprising in the entire Taiyuan County. By then, the status of your families will rise!"

After these words were spoken, although everyone was a little disappointed, they also felt relieved.

Firstly, this was a clear rejection of their request to see the envoy of God now. Secondly, it had been made very clear that as long as things were successful, they would surely be able to transform themselves into one of the largest families in Taiyuan County.

Although everyone's idea of ​​replacing the Liang family was dashed, they were already satisfied to receive such an answer from the Lord Messenger of God himself.

As long as you have status and resources, there will naturally be plenty of opportunities to operate slowly in the future, and there is no guarantee that you won't have the chance to surpass other families and dominate the area.

The Lord God's messenger had said this, and everyone understood that if any of them disagreed or turned against them, the consequences that would await them would be self-evident. So even though many of them usually looked down on the "untouchables" of the Taiping Dao, the situation was stronger than them, and for the sake of the family's interests, they could not afford to have any other ideas at this moment.

"We are willing to dedicate everything to the Great Sage Master without any complaints!" Everyone expressed their opinions.

The servant lowered his head, and his expression could not be seen. He just said goodbye and left, and Liang Hao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that the Lord Messenger of God still thinks highly of me. I must try my best to please him from now on!"

A huge stone fell from his heart. Liang Hao regained his dignity and sat back in his main seat.

"Everyone..." Liang Hao waved his hand to everyone and said, "Thanks to the divine messenger for his kindness and for appointing me, Liang, to be the abbot. I am extremely terrified and feel greatly honored!"

Seeing his smug look and the emphasis he put on the words "in charge of the overall situation", everyone couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do and they had to pretend to say some words of congratulations.

Liang Hao was overjoyed, but he suppressed his excitement and started to make arrangements.

"There is still some time before the incident. This matter is very serious. If there is any leak..."

As he spoke, Liang Hao looked at everyone, and his meaning was very clear.

Everyone looked at each other, and then the elder who had just come out to inquire about the situation of the messenger stood up again.

"Master Liang has thought it through, and we should understand. There is less than half a month left before the uprising. We will each send our servants back to report that there is something important to discuss. We will stay in the Liang Mansion for the next few days. No one can step out of the Liang Mansion unless there is a special situation. If there is any situation that needs to be reported back home, you people in the Liang Mansion will help convey it. Master Liang should be relieved now, right?"

All the family heads looked indignant. It was obvious that this decision made them feel humiliated, but they had no choice but to do so due to the situation.

Liang Hao was a typical smiling tiger. It was said that whenever he was in a bad mood, he would beat his servants severely, and many of them were beaten to death. Although he and others were heads of various families on an equal footing with him and were not afraid of him harming them, they still felt uncomfortable living under the same roof with such a person.

However, they were uncomfortable, but this was exactly what Liang Hao wanted. If he didn't take this opportunity to suppress them and establish his own prestige, how would the Liang family lead so many families in the future?
