Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

The night was deep, and the Hou Mansion had returned to its previous tranquility.

But Chongshan Pass had not yet quieted down.

Yang Zhengshan went back to his bedroom to farm, but Luo Jinsong and others did not go to rest. Gu Yunjian must not have come alone, and there must be people from the Xingyue Gate in the city.

The Zhenbiao Front Camp was responsible for the defense of Chongshan Pass this month. When they learned that the Hou Mansion had been invaded by assassins, the Zhenbiao Front Camp guerrilla general Luo Feiyu and the sitting camp officer Yang Chengxu immediately led the soldiers to search.

Luo Jinsong and Li Chengguo also participated in the search. After all, the invaders of the Hou Mansion were from the Xingyue Gate, and no one here knew Xingyue Gate better than them.

The area they searched was mainly the North City District, because after nightfall, the gates between the South City District and the North City District would be closed, and no one was allowed to open the gates except for the hand order of the General's Mansion. Even the leaders of the Governor's Office and the eunuchs guarding the city were not recognized by the soldiers of the Zhenbiao Camp.

As for how Gu Yunjian and Kou Rong entered the North City, it was actually not difficult.

At night, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to enter the North City, but it is easy for martial arts masters to enter the North City because they can climb over the city wall.

Although there are soldiers on duty and patrolling on the city wall, the soldiers' cultivation is relatively low, and it is not difficult for them to sneak into the North City quietly from around the soldiers.

In addition to the barracks, the North City is the government offices of various departments and the mansions of officials. There are no ordinary people, so it is easier to search.

Soon, there was some commotion in the North City, and several warriors in black tights were captured by the soldiers.

However, it was only these few warriors. The soldiers were busy all night and almost turned the North City over. Even the mansions of Pang Tang and Li Mingzhong were searched, and there was no harvest.

...

The next morning.

Yang Zhengshan got up early. In fact, he had not slept all night. He had been taking care of the medicinal herbs and tea trees in the Lingquan space.

But even if he had not slept all night, he was still energetic.

After reaching the Xiantian realm, he found that his spirit was always in an extremely active state. In the past, he could go without sleep for three or five days, but fatigue was inevitable. But now he has not slept for five days, and he has no fatigue at all, whether physically or mentally.

This does not mean that he does not need to sleep, but that his body and mind are full of vitality, and even if he does not sleep for a long time, it will not have much impact on him.

Of course, sleeping is still the best way to rest for him, so Xiantian warriors also need to sleep.

When Yang Zhengshan walked out of the bedroom in his clothes, Nanny Song was already waiting in the outer room with several little maids.

"My Lord!" Nanny Song and several little maids saw Yang Zhengshan coming out and hurriedly saluted.

Yang Zhengshan nodded, went forward to wash his face, and asked, "Is Mingzhao still sleeping?"

"Well, the young master is sleeping soundly!" Nanny Song smiled lovingly.

Yang Zhengshan wiped his face, "Let him get up and have breakfast later, so as not to delay going to the school."

"Don't worry, my Lord, I won't let the young master sleep in!" Nanny Song laughed.

If you ask who is the one who spoils Mingzhao the most at home, it is not Yang Zhengshan or Yu Qingyi, but Nanny Song.

Yang Zhengshan has a bottom line when spoiling his children. Playing is allowed, but it cannot delay learning and cultivation.

Although Yu Qingyi loves her children, she is stricter with Mingzhao than Yang Zhengshan.

In contrast, Nanny Song is so obedient to Mingzhao that she simply treats Mingzhao as a little ancestor.

Fortunately, Nanny Song also understands Yang Zhengshan's temper and knows that he cannot be late for school, so she will not let Mingzhao sleep in.

After Yang Zhengshan washed up, he took his gun to the yard to practice his gun skills.

The heavy black iron gun danced, making bursts of breaking air sounds, and this breaking air sound can be heard everywhere in the mansion.

Morning exercises have become a habit of the Yang family. Whether it is the Yang family or the servants, they will get up early to practice for an hour.

Therefore, every morning, bursts of breaking air sounds can be heard everywhere in the mansion.

After Yang Zhengshan finished practicing spear skills, he practiced sword skills, knife skills and Qianji Hands for a while, and practiced for almost an hour before stopping.

At his level, there is actually no need to spend a lot of time practicing spear skills. He has already practiced more than a dozen spear skills to perfection.

Every day, he just needs to get familiar with it and not let himself feel unfamiliar.

And when he practices spear, sword and knife, he actually practices the manipulation of innate true qi, not the ordinary skills before.

After finishing the practice, Yang Zhengshan returned to the house and had breakfast with Ming Zhao.

"Dad, when will mom come back?"

Ming Zhao was looking forward to Yu Qingyi so much that he asked two or three times a day, which made Yang Zhengshan feel that this kid was a bit annoying.

"It should be these few days!" Yang Zhengshan said casually.

"How many days are these few days?" Ming Zhao pouted in dissatisfaction.

Yang Zhengshan looked at him helplessly, "Dad doesn't know either!"

He estimated that Yu Qingyi should have already set off from Kyoto, but he didn't know where exactly she had gone.

Ming Zhao curled his lips and lowered his head to eat the food in the bowl.

Yang Zhengshan was too lazy to chat with him. Children are like this, he is used to it, and Ming Zhao is probably used to his somewhat unreliable father.

After breakfast, Yang Zhengshan simply packed up and prepared to go to the government office.

On the surface, he is the Marquis of Jing'an of Darong, the deputy governor of the Central Army Governor's Office, and the general of Chongshan Town, but in fact he is just a worker in the court.

I go to and from the office on time every day, and sometimes I have to work overtime. The salary is low, and there is no overtime pay.

A proper cow and horse!

Yang Zhengshan walked out of Neiyi Gate, and Luo Jinsong was already waiting outside.

"My subordinates pay their respects to the Marquis!"

"Well, what's the matter?" Yang Zhengshan asked as he walked towards the General Military Mansion.

"The investigation of what happened last night has been made clear. The people who sneaked into the city this time were people from the Tianquan Star Hall of the Xingyue Gate. As early as two months ago, Kou Rong, the patrolman of the Tianquan Star Hall, led a dozen thieves to sneak into the city. ”

"Gu Yunjian entered the city yesterday morning. Last night he wanted to ask the Marquis for me to wait!"

Luo Jinsong said.

They immediately started interrogating the people from Tianquan Xingtang last night.

These are the results of their interrogation.

"So he didn't want to kill me?" Yang Zhengshan asked, raising his eyebrows.

"No, he wants to kill us!" Luo Jinsong said dullly.

Yang Zhengshan smiled and said, "I blamed him wrongly. Unfortunately, he is already dead."

"Have everyone from Tianquan Star Hall been captured?"

"No, I only caught a few minor characters who sneaked into Beicheng, and I haven't found any trace of Kou Rong yet!" Luo Jinsong replied.

Kou Rong is the patrolman of Tianquan Star Hall. Like Ji Zhengfei in Yuheng Star Hall before, he can be regarded as the fourth leader in the Star Hall.

Patrolling is a position similar to that of an inspector. It is mainly responsible for inspecting swordsmen to see whether they have violated the rules of the sect and whether they have enriched their own pockets.

Luo Jinsong knew Kou Rong, but unfortunately he searched all night and couldn't find Kou Rong.

"Master Marquis, the city gate has not been opened yet, do you want to seal the city for arrest?" Luo Jinsong asked in a low voice.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and said: "Forget it, if you can't catch them, I won't catch them. Don't worry about them!"

The impact of the city closure and arrests would be too great, especially now that Chongshan Pass is the busiest time. If the city is closed, a lot of things will be delayed. There is no need to go to such a big fight for a few minions, it is not worth it.

"What about the Xingyue Gate?" Luo Jinsong's voice became even lower.

There was no way, this was the trouble they caused, and he was a little worried that Yang Zhengshan would hand them over to Xingyue Sect.

Yang Zhengshan entered the study, sat behind the desk, and said nonchalantly: "You don't have to worry about this. I will report this to the court and let the court handle it."

Xia uses force to break the law, and Jianghu warriors have always been lawless. Especially Jianghu forces like Xingyue Sect, which has its main hall outside Da Rong, are most likely to lose control.

The court has always monitored sects like Xingyue Sect and will never allow Xingyue Sect to act recklessly in Da Rong.

Gu Yunjian entered the Hou Mansion at night, which was not a big deal or a small matter.

After all, Yang Zhengshan was not harmed, but Gu Yunjian was killed by him.

Therefore, the court will not kill Xingyue Sect because of this matter, but will give a warning to Qixingtang who is facing Xingyue Sect.

As for who will warn, the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.

The Ministry of Punishment has the Suppressing Military Division, where those in charge of martial arts commit crimes.

Dali Temple has a martial arts department, which is responsible for monitoring the struggle between Jianghu forces and arresting key martial artists wanted by the government.

In addition, the secret military guards will also monitor the Jianghu forces.

These three are the main regulatory agencies of the court over Jianghu forces and Jianghu warriors, and they are also important institutions that make up for the low level of force of local officials.

Yang Zhengshan didn't really care about the Xingyue Sect's hostility, but he was happy to report the matter to the court and let the court cause trouble for the Xingyue Sect.

Afterwards, Yang Zhengshan wrote an official document and had it sent to Kyoto.

This kind of matter does not need to be reported, you only need to send an official document to the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Punishment will handle it according to the procedures.

…

The eighth day of May.

Yu Qingyi returned to Chongshan Pass.

When they went to Kyoto, they were on the road for more than half a month, but it only took her six days to return. It was like returning home.

In the Hou Mansion, Yang Zhengshan sat in the main room and watched Lin Zhan kowtow to him with a smile.

"Haha, I didn't see you crying when I was a kid. I didn't expect that now that you are married and starting a business, I see you crying instead!" Yang Zhengshan laughed.

Lin Zhan cried, and it was a little heart-wrenching.

"This disciple is not calm enough!" Lin Zhan wiped the tears from his face with some shame.

"Haha~~" Yang Zhengshan smiled and sighed slightly, "Hey, you have got what you wanted now. It's time to go back and tell your father the good news!"

Only he himself knows Lin Zhan's pain.

He lost his parents when he was young and has always been dependent on others.

Although everyone in the Yang family is very kind to him, and he has long regarded the Yang family as his own, but living under someone else's roof means living under someone else's roof.

He cried not because he felt uncomfortable, but because he was happy to fulfill his father's last wish and because of his gratitude to Yang Zhengshan.

Before he saw Yang Zhengshan, he could still hold back. After seeing Yang Zhengshan, he could no longer hold back the excitement in his heart.

In the past few days on the road back to Chongshanguan, what he thought most about was neither the joy of being named on the gold list nor the expectations for the future, but the Yangjia Village more than ten years ago.

Every day he thought about Yang Zhengshan's back when he took him back to Yang's house.

"Disciple, thank you Master!" Lin Zhan kowtowed three more times, and Zheng also kowtowed.

Yang Zhengshan had no choice but to step forward and help him up, "Okay, okay, get up quickly!"

Lin Zhan calmed down his somewhat excited emotions and said, "Master, I will return to Anning County tomorrow!"

Although they passed by Jing'an Mansion on the way back to Chongshanguan, he still chose to go back to Chongshanguan first.

"Well, go ahead." Yang Zhengshan didn't say much, just patted his shoulder.

Then, Lin Zhan took his leave first. The couple had just returned and had to go back to their own yard to clean up.

After they left, the other members of the Yang family also left one after another. Soon, only a few people were left in the main hall that was originally crowded with people.

Everyone else left, except Wang Mingzhe.

"What's wrong with you?" Yang Zhengshan looked at him in surprise.

Wang Mingzhe is the same age as Yang Wanqing, both thirteen years old this year, but this kid's personality gives Yang Zhengshan a headache.

This kid has been lazy since he was a child. Except for sleeping and eating, he seems to have no interest in anything else.

Now this kid is still like this. Look at this physique, it's almost comparable to Wang's.

Among the three apprentices, this kid is the laziest.

"Uh, Master, I also want to follow my senior brother back to Anning County to have a look!" Wang Mingzhe scratched his head and said naively.

Yang Zhengshan looked at him, "Why do you suddenly want to go back and see?"

"Disciple wants to burn incense for parents." Wang Mingzhe said.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and looked at him quietly.

Would this kid have such an idea?

If Lin Zhan and Wang Yunqiao wanted to go back to burn incense for their parents, Yang Zhengshan would definitely not think much, but this kid actually wanted to go back to burn incense for his parents?

He was only a few months old when he came to the Yang family, and he didn't even have the slightest impression of what his parents looked like. As for feelings, there shouldn't be too much.

Of course, it is reasonable for Wang Mingzhe to want to go back to burn incense for his parents. Yang Zhengshan didn't want to stop him, but felt something was wrong.

This is not in line with Wang Mingzhe's character. With his lazy temperament, he should be eager to hide in the yard every day and not come out. Now he actually wants to go out, or go to Anning County, which is obviously unreasonable.

This kid doesn't want to go out and be lazy!

In the Yang family, it is not easy for Wang Mingzhe to be lazy. Although Yang Zhengshan will not stare at him, Yang Chengmao, Jiang Ning and others will be with him when they practice martial arts and go to school.

When practicing martial arts, someone in the Yang family is responsible for teaching them. When going to school, the teachers in the school are also very strict.

He has no chance to be lazy.

But if he follows Lin Zhan to Anning County~~

Yang Zhengshan has figured out what this kid is thinking!

He thinks that if he leaves the Yang family, no one will care about him, and he can sleep in as he pleases.

Haha, kid, you think very beautifully!

"Master!" Wang Mingzhe saw that Yang Zhengshan had been looking at him without saying anything, and he felt a little scared, and called carefully.

Yang Zhengshan laughed, "Yes, you also go back to burn incense for your parents! How about this, let your sister take you back tomorrow."

"Sister!" Wang Mingzhe was stunned.

Yang Zhengshan nodded, "Your sister hasn't been back for many years since she got married. It's a good opportunity for us to go back together this time."

"No need, isn't your sister busy?" Wang Mingzhe's fat face showed a panic.

If he goes back with his sister, how can he be lazy?

Wang Yunqiao is more strict with him than Yang Zhengshan.

At least Yang Zhengshan won't hit his apprentice, but Wang Yunqiao will hit her brother!

Wang Yunqiao's slap is this kid's nightmare.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the panic on his face and sneered in his heart.

Little guy, you are fighting with your master, hum~~
