Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 534 Instigating Rebellion
Si Yulou also felt that something was wrong, but he still said: "Of course, we should gather the other pirates and prepare to fight against Darong's navy!"

"Fight! Haha, you want to welcome the Dayong Navy to take over Xingyue Island!" Yue Hongyi sneered.

"What do you mean, Sect Master?" Si Yulou stood up quickly.

Yue Hongyi took out two letters from his sleeves, "I received two letters in the past two days. One was sent to my residence, and the other was found by accident!"

"Look at this!"

As he said that, he threw a letter to Si Yulou, who opened it with doubt and began to read it.

When he finished reading it, he was completely stunned.

"Impossible, this is fake, Sect Master, I definitely did not secretly communicate with Darong!"

A letter cannot prove anything, but the letter written by Yang Zhengshan is very insidious. There are many contents in the letter, including thanking Si Yulou for the information he provided and adding weight to Si Yulou's surrender. It is as if the two parties have communicated many times. Not only did they discuss the conditions for appeasement, but they also let Si Yulou reveal a lot of information about Xingyuemen.

The source of this letter was also very clever. Luo Jinsong deliberately found a corpse and then had the guards of Yue Hongyi's mansion kill it. Not only was there this letter on the corpse, but also the token of the Secret Guard.

There is also the coincidence of the demise of the Crescent Army and the Upper Moon Army.

This coincidence is connected with the letter, that is, Si Yulou secretly sent a message to Dayong, and then asked Dayong to destroy the Crescent Army and the Upper Army.

Everyone in the hall looked at Si Yulou and Yue Hongyi in confusion. Deng Yuehe hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said, "Master, I have a letter here too!"

"Hmm!" Yue Hongyi looked at her in surprise.

Deng Yuehe said: "I was originally planning to give it to the Sect Master later, but now that the Sect Master has received the letter, I will give it to the Sect Master first!"

Then he handed a letter to Yue Hongyi, who opened it and glanced at it, then sneered, "How interesting!"

Deng Yuehe's letter was no different from his, and the content was almost exactly the same.

"what about you?"

His eyes fell on the others.

The others looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Some of them received the letter, while some did not. This was normal. After all, Luo Jinsong's way of delivering the letter was too casual, so it was normal even if it was lost.

"I have one here, too!"

"I have it here too!"

Qu Fusheng and Nan Haiyan spoke one after another.

Yue Hongyi looked at the two letters, his expression became colder and colder, he asked again: "What about you?"

The remaining four are Sun Chunhe, Yan Wushang, Han Changshun and Cheng Wuji.

Sun Chunhe and Yan Wushang did not receive the letter, but Han Changshun and Cheng Wuji did. However, they did not bring it with them because they did have some thoughts in their minds.

The four of them shook their heads. Yue Hongyi didn't delve into it further, but his eyes fell on Si Yulou again.

Because Si Yulou's letter is different from other letters.

"Master, I really didn't do that!" Si Yulou felt very wronged, but he didn't know how to explain.

Nan Haiyan said in a deep voice: "Master, this might be Darong's plan to sow discord!"

"That's right, that's right, it's a strategy to sow discord!" Si Yulou quickly agreed.

Nan Haiyan glanced at him and said, "But this matter is suspicious. I suggest that Yulou be locked up in the dungeon first!"

"Nan Haiyan, you you~~" Si Yulou was furious and looked at Nan Haiyan angrily.

Yue Hongyi stared at Si Yulou and nodded slightly, "Don't blame us for doubting you. The facts are before us. You just have to bear with it for a while and stay in the dungeon for the time being!"

He didn't say anything absolute, after all, he also suspected that this was Darong's plan to sow discord.

Si Yulou took a deep breath and said weakly, "I obey your command!"

He felt somewhat disheartened and aggrieved. No one spoke up for him, which made him feel indignant and hateful.

The meeting ended unpleasantly, and Deng Yuehe walked out of the main hall with a heavy heart.

She was the first one to hand in the letter just now, not because she was loyal to Xingyue Sect, but because she knew that she was an outsider in Xingyue Sect, and if any problems arose, she would be the one most likely to be suspected.

If she were in Siyulou's situation today, the result would not only be being thrown into the dungeon, but also being shackled and locked up.

"Ma'am, what's wrong?"

The maidservant following her noticed that she looked strange and asked softly.

Deng Yuehe shook her head slightly and said, "It's okay, let's go back first!"

Then she returned to her own mansion. As soon as she got home, her son Lu Xinghe came to greet her.

"mother!"

Lu Xinghe is in his thirties this year. He is the son of the owner of Lanting Island. Thirty years ago, Lanting Island was destroyed and he was brought to Xingyue Island by Deng Yuehe. He has been living on Xingyue Island for all these years.

Although Deng Yuehe is the head of the auditorium of Xingyue Sect, Lu Xinghe does not hold any position in Xingyue Sect. He is just an idler who is looked down upon by others.

Lu Xinghe has always been resentful about this. Whether in terms of cultivation or ability, he is no worse than the children of other families. However, the children of other families all have an official position in the Xingyue Sect, while he can only be an idler. How can he be willing to accept this?

What's more, he still remembered his father's revenge in his heart and wanted to avenge his father.

However, he also understood Deng Yuehe's situation in Xingyuemen, so he did not resent his mother.

"Hmm!" Deng Yuehe glanced at him and felt that something was wrong with his expression today, so she asked, "What happened?"

Lu Xinghe looked around and whispered, "Mom, come with me!"

As he spoke, he took Deng Yuehe towards the ancestral hall in the backyard.

Deng Yuehe frowned slightly, having a bad feeling in her heart, but she didn't say much, just followed Lu Xinghe into the ancestral hall.

The ancestral tablets of the Lu family's ancestors are placed in the ancestral hall, and there are three incense sticks that have not yet burned out in the incense burner.

"What's wrong?" Deng Yuehe asked at this time.

Just as she finished her words, a figure walked out from behind the curtain in the ancestral hall.

"Mrs. Deng, long time no see!" Luo Jinsong bowed slightly and said softly.

"It's you! Why are you here?"

Deng Yuehe saw Luo Jinsong's face clearly, her expression turned cold, and she said.

She naturally knew Luo Jinsong. After all, Luo Jinsong used to be the head of the Yuheng Star Hall. Although the head of the Seven Star Hall did not have a high status within the Xingyue Sect, he was at least in charge of a star hall and was considered a well-known figure.

"I'm here to persuade them to surrender!" Luo Jinsong said.

"You are so brave!" Deng Yuehe said coldly.

Luo Jinsong laughed and said, "It's not that I'm brave, but I know that Madam Deng will definitely be willing to join Darong!" Deng Yuehe said, "You think too much, I won't join Darong!"

"No, you will, because you have to find a way out for Brother Lu! Not only Brother Lu, but also your good grandchildren!"

Luo Jinsong acted very relaxed, but he was not as relaxed in his heart as he appeared.

Although he was confident that he could persuade Deng Yuehe, this was not absolute.

Deng Yuehe lowered her eyes slightly. She was not alone, she had a son, grandsons and granddaughters. For more than 30 years, she had been living cautiously in the Xingyue Sect. Wasn't all she wanted to give her children and grandchildren a stable home?

But now that Xingyue Sect is an enemy of Darong, it is unknown whether Xingyue Sect can survive this disaster, let alone her and her children and grandchildren.

Deng Yuehe stared at Luo Jinsong closely, and Luo Jinsong looked at her calmly.

Lu Xinghe stood nearby and couldn't help but say, "Mom, Xingyue Sect is definitely not a match for Darong!"

"Shut up!" Deng Yuehe scolded.

Luo Jinsong said: "Madam Deng, this is a rare opportunity. If you miss it, you may have to flee again! You should know that fleeing is not a pleasant experience!"

Deng Yuehe said: "That's not certain. Who said Darong will definitely win?"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Luo Jinsong chuckled and said, "Haha, don't say any more about this self-deceiving statement. How could Xingyue Sect defeat Darong? Was it relying on those tens of thousands of pirates, or Yue Hongyi and the others?"

"My master is the Marquis of Jing'an in Darong. I don't need to say more. You should understand that as long as my master is willing to help you, you will definitely find a place to stay in Darong!"

Deng Yuehe fell silent.

Join Darong?

It’s better to follow Xingyuemen till the end!
"Mom, you know very well how Xingyue Sect treats us. Instead of staying in Xingyue Sect and suffering from these bullies, it is better to join Darong!" Lu Xinghe couldn't help but persuade again.

He had stayed on Xingyue Island long enough. Xingyue Sect didn't consider them as their own people, so why should they follow Xingyue Sect to die together!
Deng Yuehe looked at her son, then at Luo Jinsong, "What can you give us?"

"What does Madam Deng want?" Luo Jinsong said.

"That letter!" Deng Yuehe said softly.

Luo Jinsong grinned, "That letter is fake, and any conditions on it are invalid!"

When Yang Zhengshan wrote those letters, he was just talking nonsense, and even promised the titles of marquis and earl. However, he was not the Emperor of Yanping, so he could not make the final decision on conferring titles.

Deng Yuehe frowned, "Then what can you give us?"

"I can't guarantee anything other than high official salary, but it is easy to find an official position for Brother Lu!" Luo Jinsong said.

"How can I trust you?" Deng Yuehe said.

She doesn't really care about the conditions. What she needs is a place to stay where her children and grandchildren can live a stable life.

As for wealth and glory, they are not very important in her heart.

Luo Jinsong said: "I can take Brother Lu to meet my Lord Marquis!"

Deng Yuehe thought about it and looked at Lu Xinghe.

Lu Xinghe nodded slightly, "Mom, let me go for a while!"

Deng Yuehe took a deep breath and said, "Okay!"

Seeing that she agreed, Luo Jinsong felt relieved.

……

Time quickly came to October 18th, and the Jiujiang Navy finally arrived at Zhaowuwei.

When Yang Zhengshan stood at the temporary port of Zhaowuwei and looked at the mighty Jiujiang navy coming, he couldn't help but feel excited.

The previous Five Guards Navy, plus the Jiujiang Navy that had just arrived, totaled the Ten Guards Navy, including more than a thousand large and small warships and more than 50,000 soldiers.

If you only count the number of troops, this is not a lot, but putting thousands of warships together is still shocking.

The temporary port had not been completed yet, so the Jiujiang Navy could not dock and could only drift temporarily in the near sea. However, the main officials of the Jiujiang Navy first docked on a medium-sized Haicang ship.

More than a dozen military officers in official robes filed down from the Haicang ship. Leading them was a man in his forties, eight feet tall, with a mighty build, a square face and a serious expression.

"Jiujiang Central Guard Commander Bai Yuanxi pays respect to the Marquis!"

"Greetings to the Marquis!"

Everyone bowed together.

"Thank you all for your courtesy. Haha, Master Bai, I have been waiting for you for a long time!" Yang Zhengshan looked at Bai Yuanxi and smiled.

Bai Yuanxi was not only the commander of Jiujiang Zhongwei, but also the Earl of Changning of Dayong.

The Five Guards of Jiujiang were both five independent guard posts and five interrelated guard posts.

They were different from other garrisons in that they were directly under the jurisdiction of the Central Military Governor's Office, just like the current Tenglong Four Guards. They were not under the jurisdiction of the provincial governor's office, but directly under the jurisdiction of the Central Military Governor's Office.

The five guards were distributed among the rivers in the south of Darong and were responsible for patrolling the waters and arresting thieves.

The strongest of the five guards of Jiujiang is Jiujiang Zhongwei, which can be seen from the warships of Jiujiang Zhongwei.

"The journey is long and has delayed us for some time. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!" said Bai Yuanxi.

Yang Zhengshan smiled and said, "You guys came just in time. Let's go and talk inside the government office first!"

Then he brought everyone back to the temporary yamen of Zhaowuwei.

The arrival of the Five Guards of Jiujiang means that the navies of the four seas have completed their gathering and can go out to sea to fight after training.

Yang Zhengshan first learned about the situation of the Jiujiang Five Guards, and then made arrangements for the training of the Jiujiang Five Guards.

The situation of the five guards of Jiujiang was not very good either. Among them, the situation of the Jiujiang Central Guard was better. There was no shortage of soldiers. Although there was a lack of large warships, other small and medium-sized warships were fully staffed.

The situations of the other four guards are similar to those of Quanhai Guard, Haizhou Zuowei and Leizhou Guard.

Logically speaking, the ten guards should have more than 56,000 soldiers, but in fact, the four naval fleets plus the Zhaowu Guard only had more than 43,000 soldiers.

Fortunately, Yang Zhengshan was mentally prepared, and he did not feel angry this time because he knew that being angry was useless.

After arranging the training for the five guards of Jiujiang, Yang Zhengshan waited for another two days, and An Yuxing brought five innate warriors from the Gongfengyuan to Zhaowu Guard.

This was the first time that the Temple of Worship had recruited innate warriors. Yang Zhengshan didn't know what kind of reward Emperor Yanping had offered, but he was sure that the reward this time would not be low, because the five innate warriors of the Temple of Worship were all well-known innate warriors.

An Yuxing is the team leader, Taoist Xuanzhen is the one with the highest cultivation level among them, and the other four are Mingshan old man Lu Jin, Yanggu grandmother Zhou Qing, Changping Hou Liang Chu's grandfather Liang Shengze, and Haining Hou Li Chao.

Except for Haining Marquis Li Chao, the other three are of the same generation as An Yuxing, and their cultivation and strength are not much different from An Yuxing.

Six innate warriors arrived, plus Yang Zhengshan, a total of seven innate warriors.

I wonder if Xingyuemen will feel honored by this event.
