Chapter Eighty-Four: The Four Families of the Great Yan Kingdom...
In the south of the Great Yan Kingdom, there is a small city. \.\But in the Great Yan Kingdom, this place called Tianxin City is famous. It is famous for nothing else, but because of the fact that there is a family living here. The Nangong family, one of the four major families of the Great Yan Kingdom.
The manor where the Nangong family lives faces south and backs north, with high-rise buildings. The whole building looks magnificent and magnificent. The glazed tiles on the roof shine in the sunlight. When you are lucky enough to walk through it, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that here, whether it is carved railings and painted buildings, or courtyard pavilions, or small bridges and flowing waters, it can be said that there is everything.
At this time, in the deepest part of the manor, there is a huge courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard is a square platform made of huge bluestone slabs. And in the center of the high platform, there was a muscle knot, and the whole person looked extremely muscular, and the young man who looked extremely strong was standing there motionless with his eyes closed. Beside him was a cyan boulder half a man high.
And not far from the man, there was also a man, a handsome man in white clothes like snow, who was looking at all this with a smile. The man in white has an elegant appearance and a refined temperament, which can be said to be impeccable. But the only slight regret is that the man is actually sitting in a wooden wheelchair. Feelings this person is... Alas!
The muscular man in the field still looked at the boulder beside him motionlessly, but a terrifying aura emanated from his bronzed skin. A silvery white light gradually appeared between the man's eyebrows. As time passed, the light grew brighter and more dazzling. And at this moment, the muscular man finally opened his eyes. "Phew!" the sturdy man roared, and with one palm, he pressed down on the cyan boulder beside him.
After a loud 'boom,' the cyan boulder that looked indestructible had vanished, leaving only a patch of powder. "Good, good, good!" The handsome man in white who was sitting in a wheelchair clapped his hands and uttered three good words in a row.
"Third brother, your strength has improved so fast, it's staggering. There is nothing else to say for my brother except admiration!"
"No matter how good a weapon is, if it can't be used on the battlefield, it's a pile of scrap metal. In the same way, no matter how strong the strength is, if it can't be used to kill the enemy, how is it different from juggling on the street? Big brother, there is no need to say this kind of unnutritious words!" The sturdy man walked over with a smile, "Big brother, you also know that my dream is to be able to gallop on the battlefield one day, but a calm and comfortable day like this is really not suitable for me!"
"Third brother, my current Dayan Kingdom can be described as full of dangers. There are enemies on the outside, and there are those with ill-intentioned intentions ready to move. The high-ranking officials of the court of the Great Yan Kingdom were all occupied by some incompetents. These guys often don't know anything about how to run a country, but they are all experts at collecting people's fat and ointment. These bastards have made a good Great Yan Kingdom into a miasma, and the people's lives are miserable. But what is even more infuriating is that the current Murong royal family is cowardly and incompetent, allowing these guys to act wantonly. β
"Yes!" the sturdy man nodded with feeling, "If it weren't for the hard work of the Imperial Fu family, the people of the Murong Royal Family would have been lifted from the emperor's throne long ago." β
"The Huangfu family?" the man in white smiled, "One of the four famous founding families of the Great Yan Kingdom, the Huangfu family, the Shangguan family, the Tuoba family, and our Nangong family. It's a pity that in the current Great Yan Kingdom, people only know the Huangfu family, and the other three families have gradually been forgotten. β
"That's the luck of the Huangfu family, their patriarch Huangfu Yan has become the national teacher of the dynasty. The sturdy man said unconvinced, "If our Nangong family had such good luck back then, then it is my Nangong family that is remembered today." β
"Third brother, what you said is not right, remember, luck is also part of strength. The man in white reproached, "Instead of dwelling on regret about the past, it is better to look to the future and plan for the future." Do you want to see my Nangong family sink like this forever?"
"Of course not!"
"Third brother, can you describe the current situation of the imperial court in four words?" asked the man in white rhetorically.
"This... This..."The sturdy man frowned and thought for a moment, and smiled bitterly, "Big brother, you also know that I have always had a headache for this kind of brain-using thing, so don't sell it!"
"You!" the man in white was also happy, "The current situation of the court can be described in four words, that is, the monarch is weak and the minister is strong!"
"The king is weak and the minister is strong?"
"Yes!" the man in white nodded heavily, his tone revealing an incomparable self-awareness, "Third brother, do you know what it means for a monarch to be weak and a minister to be strong? That means that the monarch can no longer suppress his ambition and greed as a courtier. That means that the courtiers are less and less concerned about the monarch, and they are becoming more and more unconstrained. β
"When this ambition and greed continue to swell, it becomes a quest for supreme power, a quest for endless wealth. And to achieve such a goal, unless the king reigns over the world. And by then, the world will be in chaos!"
"Just those guys?" the sturdy man laughed, "If they do that, the Imperial Fu clan will surely blow them to smithereens." If you want to rebel, you don't look at how many pounds and taels you have. "The sturdy man knows that although Huangfu Yangui is a national teacher and has a high position, it can be said that he is under one person and above ten thousand. But he is not a monarch after all, and if he is severely punished in the face of the mediocrity and misdeeds of his colleagues, it will not only be inconsistent with reason and law, but will also be criticized by people all over the world. After all, only the Holy One today has that kind of power to punish those people. If the Huangfu family punishes those officials on behalf of the emperor, it is better to say, it is called a passover, and if it is to be pointed, it is called a rebellion.
But if those guys are restless and rebellious, it's different. Since ancient times, everyone has been punished for rebellious ministers and thieves.
"That's right!" the man in white smiled with relief, "If those guys want to make trouble, they will undoubtedly be overwhelmed and will kill themselves." But don't forget, endless greed can turn a smart person into a fool. When the endless ** is not satisfied, people will always take risks. β
"It's just a bunch of clowns, don't pay attention to them. The muscular man pouted.
"Naturally, they don't have to pay attention to it, but the world is so big, why are they the only ones who have such ambitions? After all, in this world, there are still existences that can confront the Huangfu clan. β
"How is it possible?" the sturdy man was happy, "Big brother, are you idle? Why are you talking to me all this useless nonsense? In this world, of course, there are people who can fight against the Huangfu family, but apart from the other three major families, I can't think of anyone with such powerful energy, hahaha." β
In the face of his brother's wild laughter, the man in white seemed very calm, he just smiled and looked at his brother. The muscular man's laughter grew lower and lower, and finally stopped. "Big brother, do you mean that the Shangguan family and the Tuoba family also have the same ambition to win the world? How is that possible? Everyone in the world knows that the four major families of the Great Yan Kingdom are the most loyal to the Murong royal family, and they are the least likely to betray the Murong royal family. β
"Third brother, you are still too naΓ―ve, in this world, there is no eternal loyalty, the so-called loyalty is only because the price of betrayal is far from enough. The man in white sighed, "Do you think that the Shangguan family, which was once equally famous, would be so willing to watch the Huangfu family dominate and watch itself slowly sink?"
"I want to... I don't think so, but I want to overthrow the Murong clan and win the world. That's not all, is it?" the muscular man's tone became unconfident.
"Then let me ask you, the prestige and status of the Shangguan family and the Tuoba family, if you want to revive their former glory, what else can you do?" The man in white didn't give his younger brother a chance to breathe.
"This... Thisβ" The sturdy man was speechless.
"They don't need to say it anymore, just talk about the Huangfu family, you think they are only willing to succumb to the Murong clan for the rest of their lives, and be cattle and horses for them?
"This... This..."
"Third brother, let me tell you, although these are just my guesses, I can tell you responsibly that this possibility is very high. The man in white took a long breath, "I'll tell you that that kind of thing is only a very big possibility for them. And for our Nangong family, for me Nangong Yi, for you, Nangong Xiong, that's not possible, that's what we have to do in the future. β
An earth-shattering word!
"What, big brother, do you want to overthrow the Murong royal family?" Hearing such terrifying news, Nangong Xiong opened his mouth wide, "Big brother, you have to remember that it is a rebellion, that is a rebellion, that is a big crime, and that is to be abandoned by thousands of people." β
"What is rebellion, what is rebellion, what is rebellion?" Nangong Yi looked extremely excited, "Third brother." Today's Great Yan Kingdom is ignored by enemies outside, and corrupt officials are rampant inside, expropriating and extorting tyranny. The people were tormented, as if they were living in fire and water, and they lived trembling all day long, and their lives were miserable. β
"It is the bounden duty of my Nangong family to save all the people from fire and water and return the world to a prosperous world, how can it be said that it is a rebellion? How can it be said that it is a rebellion? You must know that the world is not under one person, but the world of the people!"
"If my Nangong clan is in charge of the world, I don't dare to say anything else, but I dare to guarantee that the future world will be rich and prosperous, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment!"
"That's right!" the sturdy man became excited, "Since ancient times, there will be no seeds, and men should be self-reliant." Since you are born in this world, you should do a great job vigorously. As the saying goes, the winner is king, and the loser is also the hero. In short, you can't come to this world in vain. β
"Well said, big brother, this is the heroism that the men of my Nangong family should have. Let's let you and my brothers join forces to dominate the world and create an unprecedented prosperous world!" Nangong Xiong raised his right hand to Nangong Yi. The latter was stunned at first, but quickly reacted. Nangong Yi smiled and greeted his right hand. The palms of the two hands touched intimately, making a crisp sound.
"It's a pity that the only fly in the ointment is that Daddy is not by your side and mine. Third brother, do you know? Grandpa once said that my father is a rare genius in my Nangong family in a hundred years, and even he will feel gloomy in terms of qualifications, talents, and future achievements. Hey, if Daddy is by our side, it will be a great help for us!"
"Big brother, did grandpa really say that?" Nangong Xiong's eyes widened. His grandfather, the patriarch of the previous generation of the Nangong family, was a legendary obsidian martial saint, and that was an existence that most ordinary people could only look up to and envy. Grandpa actually said that Daddy is far better than him, so how strong is Daddy's strength?
"Third brother, don't be so surprised. Daddy is certainly a rare genius in my Nangong family in a hundred years, but if you and I don't even have the courage to surpass Daddy, we are not worthy of being called the descendants of the Nangong family at all!"
"I understand, big brother!" Nangong Xiong's eyes slowly appeared a hot light, and at the same time, a wave of pride also swayed in his heart. That's right, his grandfather and his father are very strong, but who said that he won't have a chance to surpass them in the future? Big brother, little brother understands!
"That's right!" Nangong Yi nodded with a smile
