Chapter 649 Oh my god, why is he here?

"Let's go!" Li Chang nodded slightly and walked slowly towards the city gate.

There were many soldiers on duty at the city gate, and people entering and leaving the city gate had to undergo strict inspections. However, no matter how strict the inspections were, it was difficult to prevent spies from entering the city, and they could only prevent a large number of enemies from entering the city.

Although Li Chang and his party came from other places, they had the identity of Yangtian Sect. Yangtian Sect's face might not be big enough in Baoning Prefecture, but the Taiping Army had no reason to stop them from entering the city.

This also said that the relationship between the Jianghu forces and the rebels, on the surface, those Jianghu forces had a close relationship with the court, and even many sects were canonized by the court, and many sect masters were receiving salaries from the court, but the rebels could not regard these sect forces as enemies, but instead had to win over these sect forces.

The reason is very simple. No one thinks that the power of the sect is the power of the court. In everyone's eyes, the power of the sect is independent of the court. Even if the court canonizes the first, second, and third-class sects because of the Shangwu Order, no one still attributes these sects to the court.

Yangtian Sect is a first-class sect canonized by the court. Du Qiandao is still a third-rank official. Even many disciples of Yangtian Sect are still working in the Shangwu Division. However, neither the court nor Yangtian Sect itself regards Yangtian Sect as part of the court.

In short, the relationship between the rebels and the Jianghu sect is that as long as there is no conflict, they will not interfere with each other.

Therefore, when Li Chang and others entered the city, they entered the city smoothly after only a check.

But just when they entered the city gate, someone happened to meet him.

"Oh my God, why is he here?"

Li Dagui's eyes widened, and his face was panicked.

He had just gone to the government office to discuss the training of the soldiers with Yang Mingzhao. Now he was about to leave the city to inspect the barracks. Unexpectedly, he saw a familiar figure before he reached the city gate.

At first, he thought he had seen it wrong. He rubbed his eyes hard and made sure that he was not wrong.

Who is Li Chang?

He was Yang Zhengshan's personal followers. Li Chang and Wang Lei have always been the leaders of the personal followers. Yang Zhengshan has a total of 20 personal followers, and they have been with Yang Zhengshan for 30 years. Almost everyone who is familiar with Yang Zhengshan knows Li Chang and Wang Lei.

Who is Li Dagui?

The guards of their Yang family now are the guards who followed the Yang family from Chongshan Town to Kyoto, and later moved to Xingyue Island. But they used to be Yang Zhengshan's personal soldiers.

How could Li Dagui not know Li Chang?

More than knowing him?

These guards have suffered a lot under Li Chang and others.

Yang Zhengshan's personal soldiers were trained by Li Chang and Wang Lei.

Suddenly seeing Li Chang, Li Dagui's heart was beating wildly, just like a mouse seeing a cat. He turned around and ran without saying a word.

"Go!"

At this time, he was riding a horse, and there were more than a dozen personal soldiers around him.

Well, Li Dagui is now a general with personal soldiers!

But his performance confused his personal soldiers. It took a long time for them to react and turn their horses to chase Li Dagui.

Li Chang, who had just entered the city, saw Li Dagui who was fleeing in a panic.

Li Dagui could see Li Chang, and Li Chang could naturally see Li Dagui.

Li Dagui was even more conspicuous than Li Chang and his group. They were riding horses and wearing armor. It was obvious that they were soldiers of the Taiping Army.

"It's Li Dagui!" Li Chang's companions also recognized Li Dagui.

Li Chang nodded, "It seems that it's right, the fourth master is in the city!"

After that, they went deep into the city along the street.

Li Dagui ran back to the government office in a panic, and ran to Yang Mingzhao's study, while still muttering, "It's over, it's over!!"

"Master, help me!"

In the study, Yang Mingzhao was discussing something with Li Wenchun, and Li Dagui rushed in and shouted.

His shout scared Yang Mingzhao.

"What are you doing? You scared me!" Yang Mingzhao said angrily.

Li Dagui was about to cry, "Master, Li Chang is here!"

"Who!" Yang Mingzhao didn't hear it clearly.

"Li Chang, Boss Li is here!" Li Dagui said again.

Yang Mingzhao was stunned, and then shuddered suddenly, "Run!"

His first thought was to run!

Damn, Li Chang is here, no different from Yang Zhengshan coming.

When he thought that Yang Zhengshan knew what he had done, he felt like the sky was falling.

It's not that he didn't think about going back to Xingyue Island for the past six months, but he didn't dare to go back!

He estimated that Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi would be back soon, so he didn't dare to go back.

He could fool other people, but he was not sure he could fool Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi, and he didn't dare to fool Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi.

Yang Mingzhao was also panicked!

He almost jumped out of the window and escaped.

"Young Master!" Li Wenchun couldn't help shouting when he saw this.

"This, this, senior!" Yang Mingzhao looked at Li Wenchun, with a look of help in his eyes.

Although Li Wenchun didn't know who Li Chang was, he could guess what happened.

He was obviously not an enemy to scare Yang Mingzhao like this.

Even if Emperor Jianxing came in person, Yang Mingzhao would not be so panicked.

Then there is only one answer.

Someone from the Yang family came, and the old marquis probably knew that Yang Mingzhao was here.

"Young Master, you have to face it sooner or later!" Li Wenchun said softly.

He knew Yang Mingzhao's identity, so he was also aware of the problems Yang Mingzhao had to face. He had even anticipated Yang Zhengshan's attitude.

Yang Zhengshan's attitude was nothing more than two kinds, support and opposition.

He naturally hoped that Yang Zhengshan would support Yang Mingzhao, so that Yang Mingzhao would have a great chance of overthrowing the Darong court.

But if Yang Zhengshan did not support, he felt that Yang Zhengshan would not kill Yang Mingzhao!

Yang Mingzhao was stunned for a moment, then sighed dejectedly, "Hey, I wanted to delay for a while, but now it seems that I can't hide it!"

He was a little confused, up and down.

Uneasy, panic, not knowing what to do!

But he was also mentally prepared. Li Wenchun was right. What he had to face had to be faced sooner or later.

"Young Master, you should think about how to get the support of the old marquis!" Li Wenchun reminded.

Yang Mingzhao's expression moved slightly, and he took a deep breath to stabilize his chaotic emotions.

"Go and invite Li Chang over!"

"I'll go?" Li Dagui was a little surprised.

Yang Mingzhao looked at him and said with a wry smile: "Let's pray for good luck. It's a matter of time. Go!"

Li Dagui was like a deflated ball in an instant, and his whole body collapsed.

Just now he was still a general showing off his power, but now he is more like a child who made a mistake and dare not face his parents.

"I'll go now!" Li Dagui walked out the door with heavy steps.

The way he moved step by step didn't look like a congenital warrior.

On the other side, Li Chang and his group had arrived in front of the government office.

"Ahem~~"

As soon as they stood in front of the government office, they heard a light cough.

Following the sound, they saw a tall figure standing not far away.

"Master Wu!" Li Chang bowed and said.

Wu Zheng also looked at them quite depressed, "How did you find them?"

Compared with Li Dagui, Wu Zheng is much more confident.

Wu Zheng is not only the head of the Yang family guards, he is also Yu Qingyi's junior brother and Yang Zhengshan's brother-in-law.

These are real relatives!

Let alone facing Li Chang, even if it is facing Yang Zhengshan, our Wu Ye has a chance to speak.

Li Chang said helplessly: "We don't want to come here either!"

"..."

Wu Zheng rolled his eyes at him.

Since you don't want to come here, why are you running here?

"Did the old marquis know?"

"I have sent someone back to report the news!" Li Chang replied.

"Okay, let's go!" Wu Zheng heard that there was no chance to save the situation, so he could only take Li Chang and the others into the government office.

As soon as they entered the government office, they saw Li Dagui walking over like a toddler.

"Ahaha, Boss Li, you are here!" Li Dagui saw Li Chang and said with a smile that was uglier than crying.

Li Chang glared at him and said nothing. Wu Zheng gave him a look that wished him the best.

There is no mistake in the first post. The content is in the 6-9 book bar!

The two followers who came with Li Chang showed a ferocious smile.

Dare to follow the fourth master and do whatever he wants!

You didn't persuade the fourth master, you deserve to be beaten!

The fourth master is making trouble, and you follow him and make trouble, you deserve to be beaten!

Hehe, just wait for the board!

Li Dagui felt the two malicious eyes and really wanted to cry.

Not far away, there was another person who wanted to cry.

Ma Yan hid behind the door and secretly looked at Li Chang and his group through the crack of the door, not daring to breathe.

Li Dagui was the guard beside Yang Mingzhao, and Ma Yan and Lu Bo were the servants beside Yang Mingzhao.

In fact, Ma Yan was okay. His grandfather Ma San was the horse herder of the Yang family and the long-term worker of the Yang family. He was not considered a servant of the Yang family.

Lu Bo was different. His grandfather Lu Shou was a servant of the Yang family, and he was even a family son of the Yang family.

Although the Yang family no longer has any slaves, the former slaves have become ordinary people on Xingyue Island. The maids, servants and followers of the Yang family are all hired, but the slaves of the Yang family still regard themselves as slaves of the Yang family.

Don't think that being a slave is bad, it means that they have a close relationship with the Yang family and are the most loyal to the Yang family.

But this also means that their power of life and death has always been in the hands of the Yang family.

At this time, Ma Yan was also very panicked and scared!

He was really afraid of Yang Zhengshan's blame.

"It's over, it's over, I'm dead! Woohoo, young master, you have to protect me!"

"I advised you before, but you didn't listen, and I had no choice!"

"May all the gods and Buddhas bless you, and bless the master's great mercy, don't blame me!"

"Woohoo, the master is so merciful!"

Ma Yan was so scared that his face turned pale.

"Sir, Sir, Sir~~"

At this time, an official in the yamen came over and looked at Ma Yan with his butt raised, and couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.

"Ah, I'm fine, I'm fine!" Ma Yan was startled by him and waved his hands quickly.

"Sir, your face is so pale, are you really fine?" The official said with some concern.

Ma Yan said a little bit, "It's okay, it's okay!"

After saying that, he hid back in his office study, leaving the official confused.

On the other side, Li Chang had already come to the study and met Yang Mingzhao.

"Li Chang meets the fourth master!" Li Chang bowed.

Yang Mingzhao's mind had stabilized, and there was no panic in his eyes. Instead, he smiled and walked forward, holding Li Chang's arm intimately, saying: "Haha, Uncle Li is here. I haven't seen him for more than half a year. Uncle Li is even more powerful!"

Li Chang also smiled and said: "Is the Fourth Master okay in the past six months?"

"Yes, haha, okay!" Yang Mingzhao was a little uneasy and asked: "My father knows!"

"Probably not yet!" Li Chang said.

"Really!" Yang Mingzhao's eyes lit up.

Li Chang nodded, "I have sent someone back to deliver the letter, and it is estimated that he has not returned yet!"

After hearing this, Yang Mingzhao collapsed again in an instant!

"Can't get it back?"

"It can't be recovered. That was twenty days ago!" Li Chang laughed.

Yang Mingzhao sat on the chair, "What should I do?"

"The Fourth Master should go back. The master has been talking about the Fourth Master many times!" Li Chang advised.

Yang Mingzhao sighed faintly, and it seemed that he had to go back.

"Give me two days to arrange it!"

Li Chang naturally would not refuse, and agreed very readily.

In fact, Yang Mingzhao had nothing to arrange. He had many people here who were worthy of trust. Although he had recruited a lot of people in the past year, the ones who really held the power were Ma Yan, Li Dagui and others.

So even if he left for three or five months, there would be no big problem.

Of course, this also meant that he would not take Li Dagui and others away with him, which made Li Dagui and others feel relieved.

It's better not to go back. If you don't go back, you won't be punished. Maybe this matter can be fooled in the future!

Wu Zheng didn't go back either. Yang Mingzhao specifically asked him to stay in Baoning Mansion to look after the house, for fear that after he left, his old nest would be destroyed!

After arranging things, Yang Mingzhao followed Li Chang on the way home.

……

The fourth year of Jianxing, that is, the seventeenth year of Shenmu, the eighth day of the eleventh month.

Yang Zhengshan changed the reign title to Shenmu, and the original Xingyue reign title directly became Shenmu. He only changed the reign title, but not the year.

He naturally didn't care about the reign title. The reign title was originally set just to facilitate the calculation of years and record files.

Xingyue was changed to Shenmu because the Yang family moved from Xingyue Island to Shenmu Island.

Shenmu Year 17, which means the 17th year since the Yang family moved away from Darong.

After half a year of busy work, the Yang family's plan on Shenmu Island has begun to take shape.

In the northeast of Shenmu Island, Yang Zhengshan named the lake Wannian Lake and the river Qianqiu River.

The wharf on the west bank of the lake is Shenmu Port, but Shenmu Port has just been built and it is estimated that it will take one or two years to build.

The city on the east bank of the lake is naturally Shenmu City.

From the mouth of the lake to Wannian Rong, it belongs to the scope of Shenmu City. Shenmu City also has a small wharf, which is specially built to facilitate river shipping on the island.

A commercial area has been set up in the north of Shenmu City, which is the mouth of the lake. Many shops will be built in the future.

However, the commercial area on Shenmu Island is currently located to the south of Wannianrong, mainly to facilitate the purchase of various daily necessities by the people who have moved here.

At present, in addition to Shenmu City, there are four towns and sixteen villages on the island, with a total population of more than 43,000 people.

The extra 10,000 people are all sons and nephews of the Beihai Navy soldiers.

In the past few months, more than 20,000 people have also moved from Liaodong, but they have all been settled on Xingyue Island and Guiyun Island.

It is still quite troublesome to migrate people across the sea, mainly because the voyage is too long and requires a large number of ships. Although the Beihai Navy has been helping with the migration, after a few months, only more than 30,000 people have been migrated.

Shenmu Island is still busy, and Yang Zhengshan is not idle either. Although those complicated things do not need him to take care of, there are some things that he must do.

For example, he put a lot of spiritual spring water into the river on Shenmu Island. At the same time, he also went to see the newly dug wells on the island and put some spiritual spring water in them.

For example, in the longevity village within the space, although Yang Mingcheng and Wang are in the longevity village, many things still have to be handled by Yang Zhengshan personally.
