Coming out of the teleportation array, there is a huge courtyard in front of you, just a small school field in the courtyard, there are thousands of square meters in size, and around the courtyard, there are many tall stone tablets, which record some major events in the family, as well as the life deeds of important people in the family!

According to the customs of the Cangnan Empire, most wealthy families will set up such a family stele forest to record some major events and outstanding figures in the family, and it can also increase the cohesion of the family when worshipping ancestors!

The Confucian family has been inherited for more than 500 years, after a lot of major events, and there have been a lot of heroes in the clan, and there have been more than 100 stone tablets erected, which proves from the side that the Confucian family has not lacked those heroes over the years!

As long as the Confucian family continues to pass it on, I believe that these steles will become more and more and become legends that the future generations of the Confucian family need to look up to!

The back compartment of the courtyard is a huge house, which looks like the eaves and arches, and is splendid, which can be said to be full of majesty and solemnity. In front of the house stood eight middle-aged men dressed in strong costumes, acting as guards. But you must not underestimate these eight people, because judging from the fluctuations of the Yuan Force on their bodies, they at least have the cultivation of a mid-level Yuan General!

It can be seen that this must be an important place in the Confucian family's mansion!

Kong Yingjie explained to Kong Ming: "This is the meeting hall of our Kong family, and if there is anything that needs to be discussed and solved by everyone on weekdays, we will gather here to discuss. If the Third Patriarch officially accepts you as a disciple, then you can be regarded as a frequent visitor here!"

At this time, the eight middle-aged men who were guarding the door. After seeing Kong Yingjie, he bowed down and saluted him, and then helped push open the door of the conference hall, Kong Yingjie nodded to them, and then took Kong Ming into the meeting hall.

The interior of the chamber looked far less spacious than the outside, because there was only one hall in the room. There are also a lot of small private rooms, which are thought to have their own uses. In the middle of the hall was a large round table with a circumference of several feet. There are more than 20 Taishi chairs around the round table, which are obviously used for deliberations. Judging from this arrangement, if something big happens. It is estimated that there are only about 20 people who can enter this conference hall and participate in decision-making!

It can be said that the person who can own a seat in this council hall is definitely a high-ranking person in the Kong family!

At this time, there were a total of eight people sitting in the hall, all of whom looked like some old men. Because it was a round table, the eight old men sat around the round table, and there was no obvious difference between each other. And this is also a feature of the Confucian family's deliberations.

Facing the direction of the gate, sat an old man with a white beard and a bright red robe, who was none other than Kong Fanshu, the current head of the Kong family! On his left-hand side, three old men were sitting. Two of them are a little thin and withered, and their faces are seven or eight points similar, and most of them are brothers of the same mother. The robes they wore were white and black. Such two people sitting together, although they are similar in appearance and body shape, give people a completely different feeling. It's like black and white!

And these two old men are indeed brothers of the same father and mother, and in the eyes of many of the children of the Confucian family, they are enough to stop the children from crying at night! Because the two of them are in charge of the Confucian family's torture hall, they have always been iron-faced and selfless, if anyone makes a mistake and falls into the hands of the two brothers, it is really the king of heaven and Lao Tzu who has no mercy!

These two brothers, like Kong Yingjie, are also among the "Five Elders of the Kong Family", named Kong Yingjiang and Kong Yinghe, and their cultivation has reached the realm of the junior marshal, and they are good at a set of combined attack exercises, and the two brothers can even fight with the middle-level marshal when they join forces...,

The other old man looked like a white and chubby rich man, who always seemed to have a smile on his face, and looked very amiable. This old man's name is Kong Yingcai, who is in charge of the financial power of the Kong family, and all the large and small industries of the Kong family are taken care of by him, and he is the veritable god of wealth of the Kong family, and he is also one of the "five elders of the Kong family".

Don't look at Kong Yingcai's amiable appearance, but his cultivation has already reached the realm of a middle-level marshal, and he can be called the first in cultivation among the "Five Elders of the Kong Family"! Under his seemingly harmless smile, no one can match his shrewdness! The Kong family's family business is so big, and being able to take care of everything in an orderly manner has already proved his ability! It has even been concluded in the Confucian family that when Kong Fanshu resigns from the position of patriarch, among the elders of the "Ying" generation, the most likely person to take over the position of patriarch is this Kong Yingcai!

At this time, among the "Five Elders of the Kong Family", only one Kong Yingxiu was not in the meeting hall. She is the only woman in the "Five Elders of the Kong Family", and she is definitely an outstanding representative of the women of the Confucian family, and has always been responsible for the outreach affairs of the Confucian family. This time in Qinghai County in the eastern part of the empire, there was a 100th birthday of the head of a big family who cooperated with the Kong family, and Kong Yingxiu went to congratulate him on behalf of the Kong family, and he couldn't come back in a short time.

As for the four elders sitting on the right hand side of Kong Fanshu, they are also members of the Confucian family's own elder association, although their reputation in the outside world is not as loud as the "five elders of the Kong family", they are elders who are very respected by the children of the Kong family, and they also have a very high right to speak. Especially the old man who looked very old and sat next to Kong Fanshu, named Kong Fanji, was a brother of the same generation as Kong Fanshu, and also had the cultivation of a middle-level marshal, and was one of the three great elders in the Council of Elders, and his status was second only to the chief elder!

It can be said that all the high-level leaders of the Kong family gathered in the conference hall at this time are all marshal-level powerhouses, plus Kong Yingjie, who has just entered, it is nine marshal-level powerhouses gathered together! And such a lineup is just a card on the bright side of the Kong family, at most it is only the tip of the iceberg of the overall strength of the Kong family!

The heritage of the top wealthy families can be seen from this!

In front of so many marshal-level powerhouses, Kong Ming, who is currently only cultivating as a high-level master, really doesn't have much sense of existence. However, in front of the powerful aura of these predecessors, Kong Ming did not show the slightest crampedness and uneasiness, but gave a salute with a calm expression, and said respectfully: "After the end of school, enter Kong Ming and meet the elders!

After hearing this, Kong Fanshu smiled and said, "In the face of the most outstanding young talents of the Kong family, even if we let the old guys wait a few more hours, it is not a big deal!"
