Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 664 The Liang family is best at protecting themselves, isn’t it?

The master and servant walked quickly towards the room in the backyard. As soon as Yang Yunxue entered the room, she saw two familiar figures, Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi.

"Daughter greets father and mother~" Yang Yunxue was happy and wanted to cry, and she came up to kowtow to the two of them.

Yu Qingyi grabbed her and said, "Why are you so excited?"

Yang Yunxue's eyes were red. She was almost fifty years old, and there were still people calling her a girl.

After the Yang family moved to Xingyue Island, she had only met Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi once, about ten years ago when she went to Xingyue Island.

After so many years, she really missed Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi.

Although Yu Qingyi is a stepmother, she is still a mother and she treated her very well in the past.

Yang Zhengshan had a kind look on his face as he looked Yang Yunxue up and down.

Well, she looks a lot older than before, with obvious crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, but her skin is still fair and tender, and her eyebrows and eyes are still as delicate.

It is inevitable to look old, but Yang Yunxue is already a congenital warrior and looks not much different from a woman in her thirties.

But compared with Yu Qingyi, it is slightly inferior.

When the two of them stood together, Yu Qingyi looked younger.

There is no way around it. Yu Qingyi and Yang Zhengshan have always been together, so they undoubtedly have the most resources.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about the Ice Heart Jade Bone Pill. Yu Qingyi took one pill every month without interruption for twenty years.

If it weren't for her old-fashioned temperament, no one would doubt that she was in her twenties.

The six brothers and sisters of the Yang family, except Yang Mingzhao, are now all innate warriors. There is no need to say more about the three brothers Yang Mingcheng. Even Yang Yunyan reached the innate realm three years ago.

However, Yang Yunyan, the innate warrior, relied entirely on resources to build up her strength. As for her strength, she has never seen blood.

"Dad~~"

Yang Yunxue looked at Yang Zhengshan and called out while crying and laughing.

Yang Zhengshan stepped forward and patted her head as he did before, "I have neglected you all these years!"

With too many children and grandchildren, it is inevitable that some will be neglected, especially married daughters and daughters who are not around. Even if you miss them very much, you rarely see them.

It's rare for a family to see each other again, so it's inevitable that they get closer.

In front of Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi, Yang Yunxue showed her innocent little girl's cuteness again.

The three of them chatted for a long time before Yang Yunxue got down to business, "Dad, Mom, why did you come this time?"

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and said, "Two things. First, Dad is planning to let Chengye take over Darong's kingdom. I'm telling you in advance so that you can make some preparations in advance!"

"We have a lot of relatives in Kyoto, and we want you to take care of them more!"

As he spoke, Yang Zhengshan took out a sign and handed it to Yang Yunxue, "We still have some people in Kyoto. If you need them, you can call them!"

All of the Yang family's servants had moved to Xingyue Island a long time ago, but that didn't mean the Yang family had no manpower at all in Kyoto.

On the contrary, the Yang family still has a lot of manpower in Kyoto.

Don’t forget that the Yang family’s shops are spread all over the coastal area of ​​Dayong. Although Kyoto is not on the coast, it is one of the important markets for the Yang family’s business.

In addition to the shop left by the Luo family, the Yang family company still has a lot of business in Kyoto, so naturally there are a lot of manpower.

In addition, the Yang family also left a lot of people in Kyoto to gather information. The intelligence system that Wu Zheng originally established in Kyoto is still there. Although these people can only collect some superficial intelligence, there are many martial arts masters among them.

Yang Yunxue opened her mouth wide and looked at Yang Zhengshan in shock.

"Dad wants Chengye to be the emperor!"

"Isn't it possible?" Yang Zhengshan said with a smile.

After being shocked, Yang Yunxue fell into deep thought.

"It's not impossible, but I didn't expect Dad to have such thoughts!"

Yang Zhengshan shook his head slightly, "It's not that Dad has such thoughts, but our Yang family can't stay out of it. Since we are bound to be involved, we might as well go straight to the top of the world!"

Yang Yunxue thought about the current strength of the Yang family in Darong and nodded slightly, "That's right, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor, it's better for my nephew to be the emperor!"

After being surprised, she took it for granted.

Judging from the current situation in the world, it is still very feasible for the Yang family to take over the world.

The rebel king wants it, the bandits want it, so why can't their Yang family fight for it?
"What about the second thing?" Yang Yunxue asked proactively.

"Dad wants to see Liang Shengze!" Yang Zhengshan said.

Yang Yunxue immediately understood Yang Zhengshan's intention. Since the Yang family wanted to fight for the world, they naturally had to win over the Changping Marquis Mansion.

She thought about it for a moment and said, "Dad, you don't need to see him. Your daughter can convince him!"

"Oh!" Yang Zhengshan was a little surprised.

Yang Yunxue smiled and said, "Dad, Jinyan just reached the Xiantian realm last month!"

Yang Zhengshan's eyes flickered, "You mean?"

Yang Yunxue raised her head and said, "There are now four innate warriors in the Changping Marquis' Mansion, and my husband and I are two of them!"

Today, the Marquis of Changping’s Mansion is so powerful that it’s absurd.

Back then, the Changping Marquis Mansion could only be supported by Liang Shengze, but now the Liang family has four innate warriors.

Liang Shengze, Liang Chu, Liang Jinyan, and Yang Yunxue.

Indeed, Liang Shengze has the highest cultivation and the strongest strength, but Liang Jinyan is the younger generation of the Liang family. He represents the continuation and inheritance of the Liang family.

If it was just Yang Yunxue, it would be difficult to influence Liang Shengze's attitude, after all, she is a woman. But Liang Jinyan is different. He is a descendant of the Liang family, and Liang Shengze also has to consider his attitude.

There is also a Liang Chu in the middle. Liang Chu's attitude is also crucial, but for so many years, Liang Chu has always treated Yang Yunxue as the apple of his eye.

Really, Liang Chu values ​​Yang Yunxue, his granddaughter-in-law, more than Liang Jinyan, his biological grandson.

In the past, Liang Chu felt that he had no chance of becoming a congenital warrior, and thought that his children and grandchildren would most likely not have the chance of becoming congenital warriors either, so he placed all his hopes on Yang Yunxue.

It is hoped that after Yang Yunxue becomes a congenital warrior, she will be able to support the Liang family.

Yang Yunxue did not disappoint him. She made rapid progress over the years and even became a congenital warrior before Liang Chu.

Let me put it this way, if Yang Zhengshan hadn't given the Liang family a large amount of wine and beverages over the years, Liang Chu would really have no chance of breaking through to the innate realm.

Liang Chu was already over eighty years old when he made the breakthrough, a few years later than Ji Zhen.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a moment and said, "Dad should go see him in person. You are a junior, so it's not easy for you to speak directly!"

Yang Yunxue didn't say much, just nodded, "Okay, I'll go make an appointment for Dad!"

"Yeah!" Yang Zhengshan said.

"Dad, do you want to meet Jinyan?"

"Forget it this time. The news of my return to Beijing should not be exposed. The fewer people who know it, the better!" Yang Zhengshan said.

Yang Yunxue was not disappointed and said quickly, "Dad, Mother, come with me!"

Afterwards, she took Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi and walked towards the Xiaoci Hall in the Changping Marquis Mansion.

It was easy for Yang Yunxue to meet Liang Shengze. Although she was the daughter-in-law of the Marquis's Mansion, she was a congenital warrior. She was not the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, but her status was higher than that of the mistress of the Mansion.

Liang Chu's wife, Lin, has passed away for many years, and now the head of Changping Marquis's Mansion is Yang Yunxue's mother-in-law, Han. In addition to Han, the Liang family also has the eldest grandson's wife, Lin.

If we rank them according to seniority, it would naturally be Yang Yunxue, but Yang Yunxue is a congenital warrior. Based on this point, Yang Yunxue's words are more effective than her mother-in-law Han.

It was difficult for Han to see Liang Shengze, but Yang Yunxue only needed to ask someone to pass the message and she could see Liang Shengze without any obstacles.

Liang Shengze has not traveled far in these years because the situation in Dayong is too turbulent and he is worried about his family.

Liang Shengze was very surprised to see Yang Zhengshan.

After Yang Zhengshan explained his purpose, Liang Shengze stared at him for a long time in silence.

"You should understand that my Liang family has been passed down since Emperor Taizu until now. Everyone can betray Darong, except my Liang family!"

Liang Shengze looked at Yang Zhengshan with a complicated expression.

Yang Zhengshan sat opposite him, stroking his beard, and said calmly: "Yes, the Liang family has been passed down since Emperor Taizu for nearly four hundred years!"

"We have enjoyed prosperity and wealth for four hundred years, but you don't want the descendants of the Liang family to ruin these four hundred years of prosperity and wealth, do you?"

“After the establishment of the new dynasty, the Liang family will still be able to enjoy prosperity and wealth, and our descendants may be able to enjoy it for another four hundred years!”

"The first four hundred years were given by Darong, and the last four hundred years were given by my Yang family!"

Liang Shengze stared at Yang Zhengshan closely, "Can your Yang family trust my Liang family?"

"Why not? The Liang family is best at protecting themselves, isn't it?" Yang Zhengshan said with a smile.

He was much more straightforward when speaking to Liang Shengze, and even simpler when speaking to Xuanzhen, but not as bluntly.

Yang Zhengshan simply mentioned it to Xuanzhen, and Xuanzhen asked the Wuzhen Taoist Palace to close the gate.

But to Liang Shengze, Yang Zhengshan needs to explain the pros and cons.

Although the Liang family is close to the Yang family, it is not easy to convince the Liang family to betray Darong. After all, the Liang family really shares the same fate with Darong.

However, what Yang Zhengshan said was very true: the Liang family is best at protecting themselves.

The Liang family has been able to survive for four hundred years because of their ability to make choices.

In the past, no matter how prosperous the Liang family was, they could abandon it at will.

No matter how high the status or how great the power, the Liang family will give it up without any regrets.

It is precisely because they were able to give up that the Liang family has been able to be passed down for four hundred years without being extinguished.

For the Liang family, a temporary loss of power is not a big deal. As long as the Liang family's title remains, the Liang family's descendants can still regain power.

Yang Zhengshan said that the Liang family is good at self-preservation with two meanings. The first is that if the Yang family took over the world, the Liang family could still continue to survive by relying on its unique way of making choices. The second meaning is that since the Liang family is good at self-preservation, they should also see the current situation clearly and give priority to self-preservation between loyalty to the emperor and self-preservation.

Liang Shengze looked at Yang Zhengshan, then at Yang Yunxue who was standing behind Yang Zhengshan, his brows furrowed.

This is a bit troublesome.

Because this matter involves not only the general situation in the world, but also the internal situation of the Liang family.

Yang Yunxue is the daughter of the Yang family, but she is also the granddaughter-in-law of the Liang family.

If the Liang family chooses to reject the Yang family, the result will not only be a question of whether the Liang family can continue, but it may also cause a split within the Liang family.

Hedging your bets?

This is obviously impossible. Fence-sitters are the most annoying thing. The result of betting on both sides is that you will be unpopular both inside and outside.

Liang Shengze sighed quietly. The Liang family did not have much choice.

Either hide away and not get involved in court affairs, or follow the Yang family till the end.

In fact, before meeting Yang Zhengshan, Liang Shengze's plan was to let the Liang family hide and not get involved in state affairs, and wait until the chaos in the world was over before the Liang family came out to seek a future.

Although doing so would not allow the Liang family to maintain their distinguished status, at least it would not lead to their complete decline.

No matter who wins the world, the four innates in their Liang family are enough to guarantee the family inheritance.

But since the Yang family has intervened, the Liang family can no longer hide.

There is no way. The relationship between the Yang family and the Liang family is too close. The two families are in-laws, and the relationship is inseparable.

If it were any other in-laws, the Liang family would just refuse to recognize them, but not the Yang family.

"Hey, just tell me what you need me to do!" Liang Shengze finally made a choice.

Actually, there is nothing to hesitate about.

The strength of the Yang family is there, so it is not shameful for the Liang family to depend on the Yang family.

"If Kyoto is breached one day, please protect our relatives and friends in the Yang family and leave Kyoto!" Yang Zhengshan said.

Liang Shengze nodded, "This is easy, I agree!"

……

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi only stayed in Kyoto for two days. He originally wanted to meet Zhou Tianci, but after some thought, Yang Zhengshan felt that it would be better not to meet Zhou Tianci.

The Zhou family is different from the Liang family. Although the Zhou family is also close to the Yang family, there is no layer of in-law relationship.

Yang Zhengshan's friendship with the Zhou family is mainly focused on Zhou Lan. Although he has some friendship with other people in the Zhou family, it has not reached the point of trusting each other with life and death.

It is enough to have the Liang family take care of Kyoto. As for other things, there is no need to do too much.

In order to avoid exposing his presence in Kyoto and to avoid people guessing the Yang family's plans, Yang Zhengshan thought it would be better to leave Kyoto as soon as possible.

After leaving Kyoto, Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi went to Chongshan Town again. They did not reveal their identities in Chongshan Town, and did not even meet Yang Chengye.

The two men disguised themselves and sneaked into Chongshan Pass, then rented an inconspicuous small courtyard to live in.

The protagonist of Chongshan Town in the future is Yang Chengye, so Yang Zhengshan naturally cannot steal the limelight from his eldest grandson.

However, in order to prevent any unforeseen events from happening, Yang Zhengshan still had to personally support his eldest grandson.

That was why he chose to hide his identity in this mountain town and secretly take charge of his eldest grandson.

Of course, he would also help his eldest grandson secretly.

He had prepared a large amount of medicinal soup for Yang Chengye before, and after arriving at Chongshan Pass, he invested a large amount of spiritual spring water into Chongshan Pass.

The spiritual spring water was poured into the well as if it were free.

Well, this spiritual spring water is free.

Yang Zhengshan quietly invested a large amount of spiritual spring water into the wells of several government offices in the city, the wells of the military camp outside the city, the wells in Yang Chengye's yard, and so on.

He did not invest all at once, but took his time, neither hastily nor slowly.

Anyway, they will be locked up in the mountains for a while, so there is no rush.

In this way, Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi transformed themselves into ordinary people and lived in the mountains of Guanzhong.

The Yang family of Shenmu Island secretly launched its support for Chongshan Town. A large amount of food, weapons, armor, and medicinal materials were transported to Chongshan Town, and a large number of warriors also quietly came to Chongshan Town.

Li Chang and Wang Lei arrived at Chongshan Town one after another and came to Yang Chengye to act as guards.

Although the Yang family's actions were huge, they did not attract the attention of those who were interested, because at this time the attention of all forces in Dayong was attracted to King Daliang and Chen Hengchang.
