Chapter 211: The reverse scale cannot be violated, and murder is inevitable.

the next morning.

Yang Zhengshan arrived at Chongshan Pass exhausted. He hadn't been to Chongshan Pass for more than two years, but he was not in the mood to observe the changes in Chongshan Pass now.

When he arrived at the gate of Yang's courtyard, Wu Zhan came out to greet him before he could even jump off his horse.

"master!"

"Is the lady injured?"

Yang Zhengshan jumped off Hongyun's back and asked.

"No, Madam and Miss are fine!" said Wu Zhan.

Yang Zhengshan breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the guards who had reported to him earlier had stated that Yu Qingyi and Yang Yunxue were not injured, he still couldn't rest assured.

He hurriedly walked into the courtyard and came to the main room. Seeing Yu Qingyi sitting on the couch and resting, he finally felt relieved.

"You came!"

Yu Qingyi smiled when she saw Yang Zhengshan.

"Ok!"

Yang Zhengshan stepped forward, held her hand, and looked at her carefully. After confirming that Yu Qingyi was really fine, he said, "I'm sorry to have scared you!"

Yu Qingyi smiled and said, "I was born in Jianghu, so I can still handle this little scene, but Yunxue and Yunqiao were shocked."

"Yeah!" Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "I'll go see them first!"

"I will accompany you, Master!"

After saying that, the two of them walked out of the main house and came to the side room.

After a night's rest, Yang Yunxue and Wang Yunqiao were no longer anxious, and Yu Qingyi had already comforted them last night, so they slept quite well that night.

After seeing Yang Zhengshan, the last trace of uneasiness and panic in their hearts disappeared without a trace.

Yang Zhengshan comforted them a little and then went back to the main house to rest.

In fact, he didn't need to rest. After running around all night, he still didn't feel tired at all.

However, his followers had been running all night and were cold and hungry, so they definitely needed a good rest.

"You still have to go to the Marquis' Mansion later. There is still some time left. You should take a rest first!"

Inside the house, Yang Zhengshan said to Yu Qingyi.

Yu Qingyi was pregnant after all. Although her cultivation was not weak and her physique was strong, she still had the physical reactions of a pregnant woman, such as morning sickness, fatigue, drowsiness, etc.

Yu Qingyi did not refuse and leaned on the soft couch on the Arhat bed to take a nap.

Yang Zhengshan called Wu Zhan to the main hall and asked, "Where is Ding Qiu?"

Ding Qiu has been inquiring about news in Chongshan Pass. Although they have almost learned everything about the situation in the Marquis' Mansion, Yang Zhengshan still asked people to continue to inquire about news from all sides in the city.

Ding Qiu has been setting up a stronghold these days, so he did not return to Anyuan City.

"He went out early in the morning and said he wanted to investigate the origins of those people!" Wu Zhan said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly.

He had already confirmed the origins of those people; they were from Marquis Jingyuan's Mansion.

"Send someone to pass a message to him, telling him that those people are from Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion. If I'm not mistaken, there are still people from Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion at Chongshan Pass. Ask him to find these people for me!"

When he said this, a fierce look flashed in Yang Zhengshan's eyes.

Killing his wife and children is like stabbing him in the heart!
Although Yu Qingyi and the others were not injured, Yang Zhengshan would never let this matter go.

"There's one more thing!"

Yang Zhengshan's face became extremely gloomy, "Send someone back and ask the third brother to find the traitor in the family!"

Although it was no secret that Yu Qingyi and her friends came to Chongshan Pass this time, not everyone knew about it.

Apart from the Yang family and the garrison office, no one should know the specific time of Yu Qingyi and her friends' trip.

The other party was able to grasp Yu Qingyi's whereabouts so accurately, someone must have leaked the information to them.

If this person is not found, Yang Zhengshan will be unable to sleep or eat.

"Yes!" Wu Zhan responded and went to do what Yang Zhengshan instructed.

Yang Zhengshan sat in the main room, watching the heavy snow falling gradually.

The snow fell heavier and heavier, and the mountains became colder and colder, but the anger in his heart did not subside, but became more intense and vigorous.

The reverse scale cannot be violated, otherwise murder is inevitable.

……

Inside the inn.

Su Shanyu sat in the guest room, twirling jade beads in his hands, his brows furrowed.

Su Bai did not return home all night, which made him feel uneasy.

Logically speaking, regardless of whether the mission was successful or not, Su Bai should have sent someone to inform him, but he has not received any news until now.

"What went wrong?"

He was thinking silently in his mind, but he couldn't imagine what unexpected things would happen in such a simple task.

He didn't care about the Yang family at all.

It's just a small family in a border town. There are countless such small families in the whole Dayong. With the strength of their Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, it is easy for them to control such a small family.

If Yang Zhengshan didn't have Zhou Lan's support behind him, he wouldn't even have to go through so much trouble and act so cautiously in secret. He could have directly suppressed Yang Zhengshan officially.

"Somebody come!"

Unable to figure out what could have gone wrong, Su Shanyu could only order his followers: "Take people to find Su Bai and the others, and ask them to come back as soon as possible!"

...Inside the general’s mansion.

Liang Chu was sitting behind the desk, his brows also furrowed.

"Mrs. Yang, are they all okay?"

Early this morning, he received the news that Yu Qingyi and her group had been ambushed.

This is a mountainous area, and almost nothing can be hidden from his eyes and ears.

Of course, he would be a little behind in getting some news, such as when Su Bai led people to intercept and kill Yu Qingyi.

He knew that Su Bai had led his men away from Chongshan Pass, but he did not expect Su Shanyu to be so unscrupulous as to dare to intercept and kill the Yang family's convoy.

"It's okay, but Lord Yang is here!" the staff standing beside him said softly.

"Yang Zhengshan is here?" Liang Chu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Yes, Lord Yang entered the city just after the city gate opened. He must have rushed here immediately after receiving the news!"

Liang Chu frowned, "There's some trouble!"

He didn't know Yang Zhengshan's temper very well. After all, he had only met Yang Zhengshan once. However, no one would let it go if his wife and children were killed.

"My lord, should we remind Lord Yang?" asked the aide.

Liang Chu took a deep breath and shook his head helplessly, "Remind of what?"

"Remind him not to retaliate? Do you think he will listen to us? And even if he is willing to accept our reminder, the marriage between our two families is probably ruined!"

"As for reminding him that Su Shanyu is in the city, that's even worse!"

"Marquis Jingyuan has already surrendered to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince will support everything Su Shanyu does! If we help, the Crown Prince will definitely be dissatisfied with us!"

Liang Chu was in a dilemma at this time.

As for the prince, he neither wanted to surrender to him nor offend him.

The secret of their Changping Marquis Mansion's three hundred years of inheritance is not to participate in the fight for the throne. Although doing so may lead to the loss of power, as long as they can keep the title, they will be able to regain power sooner or later.

Just like now, if he does not submit to the prince, even if the prince ascends the throne in the future, at most he will dismiss him from his official position, but he will not take away his title. After all, he has not committed any major mistake.

It is even possible that the prince will still value him at that time, because at that time the prince will be the emperor. With a different identity, he will naturally look at problems differently. The Marquis of Changping Mansion does not take sides and stands firmly on the side of the emperor. Even if the emperor is replaced, he will not hate the Marquis of Changping Mansion because of this.

But if he targeted the Jingyuan Marquis' Mansion, that would be a different story. The prince would likely think that he was dissatisfied with him.

So no matter what, he could not target the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion.

At the same time, he still wanted to marry into the Yang family. Even with the threat from the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, he still wanted to marry into the Yang family.

Because even if you change the company, the result will be the same.

Since the Yang family has already gotten involved, there is no need to switch to another family.

"But what if Lord Yang does something impulsive?" The staff still felt that Yang Zhengshan should be suppressed to prevent him from doing anything irrational.

Liang Chu was silent for a long time before he smiled and shook his head, "Let him be!"

"My Lord!" The staff member was a little anxious.

It's not that he had any problem with Yang Zhengshan, he was just afraid that Yang Zhengshan would cause a disaster and bring harm to the Marquis' Mansion.

After all, the root of this matter lies in the Changping Marquis Mansion.

Liang Chu seemed to have figured something out and said with a smile: "Don't forget, there is a Zhou Lan behind Yang Zhengshan!"

"Duke Ning's Mansion, who dares to touch it at this time!"

The Ningguo Mansion is different from their Changping Marquis Mansion. Their Changping Marquis Mansion is somewhat out of the group in the circle of nobles. It is like a lone minister with no friends or factions, and is wholeheartedly loyal to the emperor.

The Ningguo Mansion has always played the role of a leader of nobles. Of course, this role was also given to the Ningguo Mansion by Emperor Chengping, with the purpose of better controlling the nobles.

The prince dared to win over the Marquis of Changping's Mansion, but he did not dare to win over the Duke of Ningguo's Mansion.

Winning over a few marquisates is considered a fight among the princes.

But if the prince dares to win over the Ningguo Mansion, the old emperor will probably not be able to sit still.

So no matter what Yang Zhengshan does, as long as the Ningguo Mansion is willing to support him, there won't be any big problems.

Liang Chu waved his hand and said, "Let's not get involved in this matter. The more we get involved, the more trouble we'll have!"

"Withdraw all the people from the Yang family and Su Shanyu. No matter what happened, we will not know."

He has decided to stand aside and watch, which is the most advantageous option for the Changping Marquis Mansion.

……

In the morning, Yu Qingyi went to the Changping Marquis' Mansion as agreed, and the Marquis's wife and Han received them warmly.

What was happening outside did not affect them, so Yu Qingyi naturally would not mention it, and Madam Hou and Han probably didn't know what had happened.

During this period, Yang Yunxue met Mr. Liang San again. The marquis's wife asked Mr. Liang San to take Yang Yunxue to visit the greenhouse in the marquis's mansion.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward when two strange boys and girls walked together.

Fortunately, Mr. Liang San is not a taciturn person.

"What kind of flowers does Sister Yang like?"

It was snowing heavily outside, but it was warm as spring in the greenhouse. Many flowers were in full bloom and looked very pleasing to the eye.

The Yang family didn't have such a greenhouse, so Yang Yunxue felt it was very novel.

"Flowers!" Yang Yunxue looked at the blooming flowers, a strange look flashed in her eyes.

She really likes these flowers, but that's just because they look pretty. She doesn't have a particular favorite.

In fact, she wanted to find a wooden stick to pull out the flowers.

Mm, it must feel great to pump it!
In the summer, many flowers in the Yang family garden fell into her hands.
