Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

Just when Yang Zhengshan learned about Yang Mingzhao, a major event happened in Dayong Kyoto.

The impact of this event on Dayong was absolutely explosive.

Jian Chengfeng defected from Sanshan Valley, yes, he defected.

Jian Chengfeng, who had served as the commander of the imperial army, served as the left commander of the front army governor's office, and the prince's tutor, retired in the fifth year of Chengping and lived in seclusion in Sanshan Valley.

He had a disciple named Jiang Zhen, who served as the left commander of the army governor's office, the general of Zhenbei, and the general of Chongshan Town.

The battle of Heiyun Mountain that Yang Zhengshan's predecessor had experienced was led by Jiang Zhen.

The decline of Chongshan Town was also implicated by Jiang Zhen.

When Emperor Chengping was in power, Jiang Zhen was a taboo and no one dared to mention him.

And Jiang Zhen was Jian Chengfeng's most respected disciple, a disciple who was closer to him than his own son.

It was also because Emperor Chengping killed Jiang Zhen that Jian Chengfeng retired and lived in seclusion out of despair.

Although this incident happened more than 50 years ago, Jian Chengfeng has never forgotten it.

Originally, Jian Chengfeng was dissatisfied with Emperor Chengping and Emperor Yanping. Now that Darong is in decline, the court is corrupt, and there are wars among the people, he is even more dissatisfied with Emperor Jianxing.

In his eyes, these three generations of emperors are all immoral and heartless people.

Seeing that the chaos has begun, Jian Chengfeng finally made up his mind to escape from Sanshan Valley and Kyoto.

Not only did he escape himself, he also took away all the more than 40 Sanhuang plums produced this year.

In Sanshan Valley, An Yuxing sighed faintly as he looked at the tall Sanhuang plum tree.

Yue Gu and Xun Shanshui stood behind him, looking a little unhappy.

Zhangye and Meng Po Po had passed away long ago. Now the person with the highest cultivation in Sanshan Valley is An Yuxing, followed by Jian Chengfeng.

Jian Chengfeng swept away all the three yellow plums this year without anyone being prepared.

This shocked and angered them.

"The world is in chaos, and people's hearts are scattered!" An Yuxing murmured in a low voice.

Yue Gu looked at An Yuxing's fluttering white hair and said in a low voice: "What are Senior An's plans?"

Xun Shanshui's expression changed slightly, "What does Brother Yue mean?"

Yue Gu shook his head and looked in the direction of the imperial city, "I want to go back home!"

"I have been living in seclusion in the Three Valleys for decades, and I almost forgot what my hometown looks like!"

He was originally a martial artist, and the Yue family was also a martial arts family in Fuhai.

He stayed in the Three Valleys for these years to earn resources and three yellow plums for his descendants. In the past, the innate warriors in the Three Valleys were not allowed to leave. This was a rule, and he naturally could not violate it, but now there is no such restriction in the Three Valleys.

So he wanted to go back to see his children and grandchildren.

Although Fuhai Province is not as chaotic as the three provinces of Longyuan, it is not peaceful now. He wants to go back to protect his children and grandchildren.

Xun Shanshui frowned. Leaving the Three Valleys?

This is something he has never considered before.

"Senior An!"

Xun Shanshui wanted An Yuxing to make the decision.

Although everyone can leave the Three Valleys now, no one has really left the Three Valleys in these years.

An Yuxing turned his head and looked at Xun Shanshui, "If you want to leave, leave, so as not to embarrass everyone!"

People's hearts are scattered, how can they be stopped?

The more they stop, the greater the contradiction between them.

Moreover, this land has not been without the end of the dynasty. At the end of the Great Sheng Dynasty, the world was divided and countless forces emerged to claim to be kings and hegemons. At that time, let alone ordinary people, even the innate warriors fought to death.

At the beginning, there were three spiritual fruits in the Great Sheng Dynasty. What was the result? All three spiritual fruits were destroyed in the war.

More than 30 innate warriors died in the war.

How similar is the current situation to the situation at the end of the Great Prosperity?

In fact, everyone has seen the clues, and everyone is preparing for the next chaotic times.

What choices can the innate warriors make?

Either participate in this hegemony and fight for wealth for future generations with your life, or hide in the mountains and forests, ignore the world, or escape from Dayong and establish a power overseas.

Innate warriors are top-notch warriors, but facing the end of the dynasty, innate warriors can't turn the tide.

Wanting to change the world, reshape the world, and rebuild the moral principles is definitely not something that one or a few innate warriors can do. It requires opportunities, luck, people's will, etc. to do it.

Emperor Taizu of Dayong is simply a son of destiny. He was born in poverty, but he was in great destiny, unyielding, and finally became a great leader.

Emperor Taizu was originally just a small martial artist, but he was kind, generous, free and easy, and generous. He traveled around the world for more than ten years and made many friends.

Later, because of the lack of justice in the court, he was forced to become a hero of the green forest. He was almost wiped out by the Dasheng court several times, but after each failure, he was able to raise a team again in a very short time.

He even found the three yellow plums by chance.

The three yellow plums made him a congenital martial artist, allowed him to cultivate many martial arts masters, and made him qualified to dominate the world.

Now this three yellow plum has been with Dayong for nearly four hundred years. Dayong is about to die. Can this three yellow plum still be saved?

"Thank you for your help, senior!" Yue Gu clasped his fists and saluted. Without any delay, he turned around and left.

Xun Shanshui hesitated for a moment, wanting to dissuade him, but didn't know how to dissuade him.

An Yuxing turned and looked at him, revealing a faint smile, "I am leaving too!"

"Ah!" Xun Shanshui looked at An Yuxing in confusion, "Senior, why is this?"

An Yuxing shook his head gently, "It's meaningless for you and me to stay. We may be able to help the court defeat some rebels, but we can't change this corrupt dynasty!"

Can they save Darong?

The answer is no!

Because the root of Darong's problems is no longer the emperor or the court, but the entire court and all the government offices.

If you want to save Darong, you need to break it down and then rebuild it.

In this chaotic situation, saving Darong is more difficult than rebuilding a new dynasty.

An Yuxing actually knew that there would be such a result a long time ago, but he still had some expectations for Darong. Unfortunately, Emperor Jianxing and the current court still failed his expectations.

When Chen Zhaoxuan died in Daizhou, he had already thought about leaving, so he asked An Chenhui to send him to Chongshan Town.

An Yu left, as carefree as Yue Gu, without any signs, and without leaving any letters to Emperor Jianxing, and just left.

In fact, there was one thing he didn't say to Xun Shanshui. He thought that if he stayed in Sanshan Valley, the chaotic world would only become more chaotic and last longer. On the contrary, if he left, the court would lose the power of many innate warriors and would perish faster.

Only if Dayong died earlier, the new dynasty could be established earlier.

Only if the new dynasty was established earlier, the people would suffer less disasters.

As for loyalty to the emperor, when did the innate warriors have loyalty to the emperor?

Maybe they had, but when they became innate warriors, their loyalty would slowly dissipate, and what was left was only feelings and ties.

An Yu left, and he went to look for his children and grandchildren.

The An family was just a small family. Even if he became an innate warrior, the development of the An family was very limited. After so many years, An Chenhui was still the most promising.

The An family had long since moved away from their hometown. After An Chenhui went to Chongshan Town, the An family had already moved to Liaodong.

They did not go to Chongshan Town, but moved to Dongyang Prefecture in Pingyuan.

Because Pingyuan Province did not have a strong underworld force, nor a strong martial arts family.

And Pingyuan Province was also the sphere of influence of the Yang family. Although the Yang family had little control over Pingyuan, Pingyuan had always been relatively peaceful because of the relationship between Lu Wenyuan and Lin Zhan.

An Yu left, Yue Gu left, and Xun Shanshui eventually left.

In the end, only a gentle figure was left in the Three Valleys. Chen Mingxi stood under the three yellow plums, looking at the withered yellow leaves, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.

"Brother, Mingxi missed you!"

She murmured in a low voice.

"Your Highness, His Majesty invites you!"

A warrior in black clothes and a long sword on his waist appeared silently behind Chen Mingxi.

"I know!"

Chen Mingxi turned around, got on the carriage accompanied by the maid, and drove towards Kyoto.

Anyone can give up Darong, but the royal family cannot give up Darong.

A perfect poem, a post, a content, a book, a forum!

...

Jizhou, Hengdaomen.

Ji Hai looked at Ji Zhen who had returned in astonishment, "Master, why are you back?"

Ji Zhen looked at the familiar yard, the familiar grass and trees, and sighed faintly.

He walked into the house with a cane. The house was still decorated in the same way, and even the teapot and teacup were not changed.

Sitting at the tea table, he stroked the familiar tea set.

"The troubled times have come, and my Hengdaomen should find a way out!"

Ji Hai sat in front of Ji Zhen in a daze, and he didn't seem to understand what Ji Zhen said.

For more than 20 years, Ji Zhen has been in Cuixia Valley. Although Ji Hai often visits him, he hesitates that the journey is long, so he only goes once a year at most.

Now Ji Hai's hair has turned gray, but he is already a congenital warrior, which means he has lived up to Ji Zhen's painstaking training.

Hengdao Sect is still the strongest sect in Liaodong, and Tianqing Sword Sect can only be ranked second.

"Master, what's going on?"

Ji Zhen tasted the tea, and the familiar tea fragrance made his thoughts complicated.

"There are no congenital warriors stationed in Sanshan Valley and Cuixia Valley."

"What?" Ji Hai was shocked.

Ji Zhen said: "Jian Chengfeng defected from Sanshan Valley, and all the congenital warriors in Sanshan Valley left. After Cuixia Valley got the news, everyone went back to their own homes!"

Jian Chengfeng's defection was a fuse, and he ignited the demoralized congenital warriors.

Even the congenital warriors in Sanshan Valley left, let alone Cuixia Valley.

Almost all the congenital warriors in Sanshan Valley had served in the court, and most of the congenital warriors in Cuixia Valley were born in the Jianghu sect.

"Then we won't have Zhenyuan Pills anymore?" Ji Hai said.

Ji Zhen looked up at him, "You're still thinking about Zhenyuan Pills at this time!"

Ji Hai shook his head, "Master, I'm a little confused, let me sort out my thoughts!"

He couldn't figure out the thoughts of those seniors. Why did they leave Sanshan Valley and Cuixia Valley?

They clearly had Sanhuangli and Zhenyuan Pills there, so why did they leave?

And did the emperor let them leave so easily?

Aren't they afraid of the emperor's wrath?

Ji Hai couldn't figure it out for a while.

After all, he had just broken through to the Xiantian realm a few years ago, and his concept had not yet changed from an ordinary warrior to a Xiantian warrior.

In his mind, Sanhuangli and Zhenyuandan are both very precious cultivation resources. For these two things, it is worth it for him and Hengdaomen to pay a huge price. Not to mention just staying in Sanshan Valley and Cuixia Valley, it is worth it even if he takes his disciples to fight a big battle.

In his mind, the emperor and the court still have great power, and sects like them should not challenge the majesty of the emperor and the court.

Ji Hai fell into deep thought, and Ji Zhen was also thinking while stroking his beard.

Unlike Ji Hai's thoughts, Ji Zhen was considering the future of Hengdaomen.

Jizhou is the gateway to Liaodong. Although the commercial trade in Jizhou has been greatly affected by the development of maritime trade in Liaodong in the past ten years, the importance of Jizhou has not diminished.

Especially in terms of strategic significance, Jizhou is definitely the most important strategic location in Liaodong.

Jizhou, in the south, can march straight into Shuntian Prefecture, in the north, can go deep into Pingyuan and Liaoyuan provinces, in the west, can go upstream along the river to Liaoxi, Beiyuan Town and Longyuan, in the east, can go downstream and go out to sea.

Since ancient times, Jizhou has been a battleground for military strategists. As long as Jizhou is occupied, the front of the army can radiate two thousand miles around.

If Hengdaomen occupies such a strategic location, it will inevitably become the target of public criticism.

Hengdaomen must not occupy Jizhou, and even cannot have such an idea.

The court does not allow Hengdaomen to do so, and Liaodong will not allow it either.

"Master, how many innate warriors are there in the court?" Ji Hai suddenly said.

Ji Zhen shook his head slightly, "I don't know! There should be more than a dozen!"

Without Sanshan Valley and Cuixia Valley, there are still so many nobles in the court, as well as the royal family, and the innate strongmen in the imperial city.

"More than a dozen!" Ji Hai took a deep breath, "As far as I know, Chongshan Town has three innate warriors, Yang Mingwu, Luo Feiyu, and Han Fei!"

"Beiyuan Town also has six innate warriors, Zhou Lan, Song Dashan, Yang Mingzhen, Yang Chengxu, Yang Chengze, and Wang Yunqiao!"

"Tenglongwei has two innate warriors, Yu Tonghai and Xue Ping!"

"Not only that, there must be other innate warriors around Jing'an Hou Yang Chengye."

"Master, that's more than ten innate warriors!"

Ji Zhen's expression moved slightly.

He knew that there were many innate warriors in Chongshan Town and Beiyuan Town, but he didn't really know their specific subordinates.

Such as Song Dashan and Yang Mingwu, they have broken through to the innate realm for nearly 20 years, and Ji Zhen has some knowledge of them, but he is not very clear about these young juniors such as Wang Yunqiao and Han Fei.

Especially Han Fei, he has never even heard of this name.

"Wang Yunqiao, I know you are Yang Zhengshan's disciple, but who is Han Fei?"

Ji Hai replied: "Han Fei is now the lieutenant general of Daning Guard in Chongshan Town West Road. His father, Han Cheng, has followed the old marquis for more than 30 years and later served as the commander of the first guard in Tenglong Guard."

Speaking of this, Ji Zhen actually understood that Han Fei must be a close person of the Yang family.

But Ji Hai continued, "In his early years, Han Fei was a close follower of the old marquis. When the old marquis was the general of Chongshan Town, Han Fei was promoted to the guerrilla general of the town's flag camp."

"This person is actually similar to the old marquis's disciple, but there is no master-disciple relationship!"

Ji Zhen nodded slightly, "So the younger generation of the Yang family has grown up!"

"Well, more than growing up, the Yang family has produced many outstanding young people in recent years, such as Yang Qinhu, the lieutenant general of Fuzhou Guard in the north of Chongshan Town. He is only forty years old now, but he has reached the half-step innate realm. Another example is Yang Qinfu, the guerrilla general of the left camp of the town's flag. He is less than forty years old, but he has reached the ninth level of the acquired realm!"

"These are just the children of the Yang family. I don't know what the children of the Yang family are like now!"
