Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Leaving Home and Chaos Ensues
Jinzhou City.
Yichun Building. freewebnov(e)l
At this moment, the entire building is filled with white curtains, somber music, and scattered yellow paper. Under the guidance of the old madame, Spring Lady, a group of beautiful women are weeping and wailing.
Such a scene, not to mention within Jinzhou City, is probably unprecedented in the Dayan Dynasty for hundreds of years. After all, who has ever seen a funeral for a prostitute in a brothel?
But at this moment, the people gathered around are more concerned not about the women, but the man in white linen clothes, looking sad.
And he is Liang Qi's servant, Hou Er.
"Miss Qing'er, my master has gone to Jinshan Temple outside the city to become a monk. He said he will be accompanied by the green lanterns for the rest of his life to pray for your blessings and hope that you can be born into a good family in your next life."
After saying this, Hou Er takes off his shoes, walks barefoot, and heads straight towards the city's outskirts.
It was as if the bystanders only reacted at this moment, with disbelief on their faces. They could not believe that the young master of the Liang family would actually choose to become a monk for a prostitute, forever accompanied by green lanterns and ancient Buddhas?
Upon hearing this, the old madame Spring Lady and her girls could not help but exchange glances. Liang Qi had indeed visited a few times, but was he entertained by Qing'er?
These little things the old madame had long forgotten. However, when Liang Qi's servant brought a lot of silver last night and asked them to send Qing'er off, she naturally could not refuse for this was the Liang Family of Jinzhou City!
Last night, she thought Liang Qi was a loyal and righteous patron, but now hearing Hou Er's words, she couldn't help but be shocked.
Would this young master of the Liang family really be so infatuated, to such an extent?
Spring Lady was also a little flustered at the moment, but her girls' eyes were filled with tenderness after hearing Hou Er's words.
Some of them had also spent a night with Liang Qi but never thought he would be so infatuated with Qing'er, even willing to become a monk for her sake.
"Sister Qing'er, it was worth it in this life."
Hou Er was actually a little nervous. When Liang Qi asked him to inquire about whether Qing'er of Yichun Building had really passed away, he never expected such a situation.
If he had known this earlier, he would not have told the truth at all. But now he could only do what Liang Qi asked of him because he was Liang Qi's sworn servant, and not following orders would mean death.
And the spectators who followed Hou Er, watching him walk barefoot step by step towards the city gate, began to believe that Liang Qi might have really gone to Jinshan Temple outside the city to become a monk.
A young master of the Liang family, who had enjoyed endless wealth and honor, was now willing to become a Buddhist monk for a prostitute. If that's not foolish, what is?
It's likely that when the Liang family finds out, they will be ashamed of him and even expel him from the family, and he will no longer be a member of the Liang family.
No matter what the passersby think, at this moment, Liang Qi has already taken the tonsure and was kneeling in front of the Buddha in the Daxiong Treasure Hall of Jinshan Temple, with an expressionless face, hands clasped together.
"Master, my disciple's worldly ties have been severed. I only wish to be accompanied by the Buddha for the rest of my life. May the Buddha have mercy."
The monks around Jinshan Temple looked at each other, unsure what to do, and could only rush to the inner hall to report to the abbot.
...
On the other hand, the Liang family was not at peace either.
In the ancestral hall, the Liang family elders were somewhat angry and frustrated. A few days ago, they had decided to let Liang Qi marry into the Wu family after various considerations.
Today, they had pretty much discussed the details with the Wu family and were just about to announce it to the outside world.
Given the current situation in Jinzhou City, it was necessary for the Liang and Wu families to form an alliance in order to counteract the threat from the Gao family.
But now that Liang Qi had become a monk, even if they brought him back, the Wu family would probably be unhappy.
Was the legitimate daughter of the Wu family really so insignificant, not even comparable to a prostitute?
"Patriarch, we must make a decision now, otherwise we will not be able to explain it to the Wu Family, and the marriage alliance between the two families may be affected."
Now the best solution is to pick another descendant of the Liang Family to marry into the Wu Family, and the Liang Family Elders can only be glad that the news of Liang Qi's marriage into the Wu Family had not been released yet.
As for Liang Qi, now is not the time to discuss how to deal with him. Faced with the Gao Family's current pressure, the Liang Family must unite with the Wu Family.
Then some Elders began to propose which Liang Family's Younger Generation should replace Liang Qi to marry into the Wu family. At this time, no one would be foolish enough to propose Liang Sheng.
Liang Sheng, because of the existence of the Attribute Panel, is still superficially a "useless" person at the Second Level of Post-Natal Realm. But no one would let Liang Sheng marry into the Wu Family.
No matter how useless he is, he is still the legitimate son of the Liang Family's Patriarch Liang Ping. If he were to marry into the Wu Family, where would Patriarch Liang's face be?
Soon, the Liang Family Elders discussed and decided on a substitute candidate and, in order to prevent further complications, they directly controlled the person and urged the Wu Family to marry as soon as possible!
Seeing the Liang Family make a decision so quickly, the Wu Family also saw their sincerity, and with the Gao Family looming like a knife over their heads, they naturally wouldn't make more trouble.
After two days, the Liang and Wu Families held a grand marriage ceremony, and this matter settled.
Liang Sheng had no sense of pride; he just wanted to cultivate for longevity and did not want to be involved in too many Liang Family affairs.
As for Liang Qi avoiding this marriage by becoming a monk, it was his own strong comprehension ability, as he himself didn't say anything about it.
However, faced with the current situation in Jinzhou City, he has made some preparations while practicing martial arts techniques and even secretly converted most of his wealth into conveniently carried silver notes.
If the situation in Jinzhou City goes wrong, he will leave lightly, and he will definitely not share his destiny with the Liang Family.
At this moment, Jinzhou City's situation is much more tense than before, with more people carrying weapons on the streets. Now, Liang Sheng tries to stay home as much as possible.
"Young Master."
At this moment, Ma San rushed into the room with a somewhat panicked expression. Liang Sheng couldn't help but feel a little nervous and asked: "Did something happen?"
Ma San had been carrying out his orders these days, observing the city's movements, and nodded heavily.
"Young Master, as you expected, dozens of people died in Goulan Street today, all of them from the three major families. By the time the fighting ended, the County Government Office sent people to clean up."
Liang Sheng looked up at the sky, and it was still daytime, such a big event had happened, it seemed that the conflict between the three major families had really intensified.
"In these few days, tell the people in the mansion not to go out. If they go out without permission, they will bear the consequences, and don't come back afterward."
"Yes, Young Master."
After Ma San left, Liang Sheng's face darkened. Fortunately, he was well-prepared, and the food stored in his house was enough for his mansion to eat for half a year.
He just hopes that the fire of the three major families would not burn to his own mansion. In theory, this was the inner city, and they probably wouldn't do anything too excessive.
After all, as long as the ancestors of the three families are still there, it won't reach the point of life and death between them. Their families have stood proudly in Jinzhou City for so many years, and it's not the first time that similar situations have occurred.
However, the initial chaos would definitely happen, but it's unclear how long it will last and how big the turmoil will be.
But the three major families should not dare to go all out. Just because the County Government Office seems somewhat useless, does not mean that the Dayan Dynasty is useless.
When the three major families really start to fight till death, the government will step in to resolve it. The power of the court and government offices is always the strongest.
However, it is also happy to see the martial arts families fighting and weakening each other. If the families under heaven were really united, the court and government would have drawn their knives long ago.
After all, the establishment of the Dayan Dynasty was based on the extermination of the seven greatest martial arts sects at that time, creating a unified dynasty.
Let's hope nothing happens, because since this sudden conflict between the three families, he hasn't gone to the Yichun Building to listen to music at brothels for a long time.
These dog days of families!
