Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

The scoldings got closer and closer, and Yang Zhengshan quickly pulled Yang Mingzhi to the side of the road.

Then he saw a group of soldiers rushing over and driving away the onlookers.

At the same time, he also saw the scene in the crowd.

A young man in purple brocade was whipping two people with a whip.

The two people who were beaten were a man and a woman. The man was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and the woman seemed to be only about ten years old. The man protected the little girl in his arms and allowed Master Zhang Si to slap her on the back, letting out a dull and painful sound. Call.

There were seven or eight servants in green clothes around, glaring fiercely at the passers-by.

What a good show to bully others!

Yang Zhengshan shook his head and looked away.

But just when he looked away, he suddenly felt someone was staring at him.

Following his feeling, he showed a look of astonishment.

Zhou Lan!

Surrounded by a group of soldiers, Zhou Lan came on horseback.

The person who had been waiting for three days but had not arrived unexpectedly met him at this moment.

Zhou Lan nodded slightly to him and rode past him with a solemn expression.

"Get out of the way!" the soldier yelled.

"Where did you get this stupid thing from? How dare you disturb this young master's good deeds?" Zhang Chen stopped beating and glared at the running soldiers fiercely.

However, just as he finished speaking, there was a whooshing sound that broke through the air.

Snap!

A black whip struck him hard.

The purple brocade clothes tore apart, revealing a trace of blood.

Zhang Chen let out a shrill scream and fell heavily onto the bluestone street.

"Master, Master!"

For a moment, the expressions of the servants who were still vicious at first changed, and they stepped forward to help Zhang Chen up in panic.

Zhang Chen howled miserably for a long time before standing up.

He looked at Zhou Lan on the horse with a ferocious look in his eyes.

"You bitch, you dare to hit me?"

Whoosh, the familiar sound of breaking through the air sounded again.

Zhang Chen shuddered violently and stepped back.

However, the whip did not fall on him, but was caught by the servant beside him.

Zhou Lan looked at the servant holding the whip with a cold face.

In the distance, Yang Zhengshan was also sizing up the servant.

The person who can catch Zhou Lan's whip should be a warrior the day after tomorrow.

"Let go!" Zhou Lan said lightly.

The servant quickly let go of the whip in his hand, bowed his head and said: "My young master is young and ignorant, please forgive me, general!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the whip waving through the air came again.

This time he had no time to stop him, and the whip fell on Zhang Chen's chest again.

His clothes were in tatters, revealing bloody wounds.

Zhang Chen screamed again.

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will beat you to death!"

"Get away!"

Zhou Lan said coldly.

The seven or eight servants didn't care about anything else and dragged Zhang Chen to the side of the road to get out of the way.

Zhou Lan didn't even look at Zhang Chen, and left with a group of soldiers on horseback.

Behind, Yang Zhengshan's eyes wandered back and forth between Zhang Chen and Zhou Lan.

Duke Ning's Mansion, guarding the eunuch!

Tsk tsk~~

The water in this mountain pass city is very deep!

It’s better to keep our little fish and shrimps out of the mix!

"Walk!"

Yang Zhengshan whispered to Yang Mingzhi.

Afterwards, the two people left quickly.

When gods fight, mortals suffer.

Faced with this situation, it is better to leave first.

To avoid the Zhang family meeting to anger innocent passers-by later.

Yang Zhengshan didn't know whether the Zhang family had angered passers-by. After they returned home, they stayed behind closed doors.

Near dusk, Zhou Lan came over as Yang Zhengshan expected.

"Meet General Zhou!"

"Meet General Zhou!"

In the front yard of the house, Yang Zhengshan and everyone bowed to greet him.

"No need to be polite!"

Zhou Lan said with a slight smile, waving her hands.

"General Zhou, please!" Yang Zhengshan welcomed him into the main room in the inner courtyard.

Zhou Lan looked at the house and followed Yang Zhengshan into the inner courtyard.

"I bought this house four years ago. At that time, I first came here and needed a place to live, so I bought this house."

"But then I bought a bigger house, and I'll give this one to you!"

She said casually.

Yang Zhengshan paused slightly and said, "Isn't this too expensive?"

Zhou Lan waved her hand nonchalantly, "It's not valuable, just accept it with peace of mind!"

The two walked into the main room, and two soldiers followed suit with food boxes. After a moment, a table of sumptuous food and wine was placed in front of Yang Zhengshan.

"Let's chat while drinking!" Zhou Lan said, looking at the young men around him.

"Yang Baihu, today is different from the past, it's time to set some rules around you!"

Yang Zhengshan was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and said, "You guys go down first!"

All the young men also heard the meaning of Zhou Lan's words and bowed and retreated.

"They are all juniors in the clan. They are closer to me on weekdays, which makes General Zhou laugh!" Yang Zhengshan said with a smile.

rule.

For many powerful people from aristocratic families, rules are an insurmountable gap.

Although Zhou Lan has always been very approachable, she was born in Ningguo Palace after all.

Looking at the soldiers and followers around her, you can see that she still has very strict rules.

In comparison, these young men from the Yang family seem to have little discernment.

Yang Zhengshan didn't pay attention to this before, but now after Zhou Lan reminded him, he understood.

As a superior, one must have his own power.

The so-called rules are made to maintain the power of the superior.

Zhou Lan didn't care. She just wanted to remind Yang Zhengshan, not to blame him.

She held the wine glass and drank with Yang Zhengshan.

"Let Zhao Yuan take you to the Dusi Yamen tomorrow to report, and change the title deed of this house by the way!"

"Then when will I go to Linguanbao?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Zhou Lan pondered for a moment and said, "As soon as possible, let Zhao Yuan take you!"

"I told you that training in Linguanbao is a test for you, but now the situation has changed a little!"

Yang Zhengshan frowned, "What changes?"

Zhou Lan picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp. There was no weakness of a woman in her bold look.

"The court intends to conquer the Hu tribe of Donghai!"

Yang Zhengshan shook the wine glass in his hand slightly, and raised his head in astonishment.

Conquer the Hu tribe of Donghai?

This is not difficult to understand.

With the Hu cavalry entering the country, Darong will naturally not give up.

"When?"

"I don't know yet!" Zhou Lan shook her head.

Yang Zhengshan's eyes dropped slightly.

It is now April, the time when everything in the north is revived.

It stands to reason that this is the best time for Darong to attack the Hu people.

If the time is delayed to June or July, the war may drag into winter.

The winter in the north is cold and long, and large-scale combat in winter is difficult.

Don't think that the Hu people entered the country in winter before, which means they are willing to fight in winter. In fact, they are forced to do so because of lack of food, otherwise they will never choose to enter the country in winter.

It has not been determined yet, which means that it is impossible to go out in April.

Even if it can be determined now, it will take time to mobilize troops and supplies. It is estimated that it will take until the end of May or the beginning of June to go out.

In this way, there is really not much time left for him.

"Do I need to go to the battle with the army?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"Not necessarily, it depends on the court's opinion!" Zhou Lan shook her head and said, "Just focus on training! Even if you need to go to war, I will arrange for you to stay behind!"

She just received some news, but she couldn't be sure of the court's specific decision.

However, according to her calculations, the court would have a high probability of passing the decision to conquer the Hu people.

Yang Zhengshan thought about it and felt that it didn't seem necessary for him to worry about this matter.

He is now an insignificant trial centurion, and he must obey Zhou Lan's arrangements no matter what he does.

As for other things, he can't manage them even if he wants to.

To put it bluntly, he is now just a small soldier under Zhou Lan's command, and he should do whatever Zhou Lan tells him to do.

As for leaving or leaving Zhou Lan.

Yang Zhengshan just thought about it and rejected the idea.

Unless he wants to continue to stay in Yangjia Village, he can only follow Zhou Lan.

If you want to stand out, you can't take no risks.

And he is a warrior now, and going to the battlefield is the way he must go.

One general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of bones.

If the Yang family wants to grow and develop, they have to step on thousands of corpses.

These corpses include enemies, Yang family members, and even Yang Zhengshan’s own.

“You can train the soldiers, but I have a request!” Yang Zhengshan said.

“What request?”

“Food, enough food! If the soldiers can’t even eat enough, how can we train the soldiers?” Yang Zhengshan said.

Zhou Lan said before that Linguanbao is a new garrison. Since it is a new garrison, it means that there is no food stored.

Moreover, the military households in Linguanbao are all newly recruited refugees. You can guess what these refugees look like without thinking too much.

“No problem! I will let Zhao Yuan transport a batch of food to you!” Zhou Lan agreed without hesitation.
