Yang Pojun, who was standing beside Yang Gongming, had a look of anger in his eyes, but he didn't dare to show it too much. After all, the Yang Family seemed to be in the wrong this time.
Seeing that his father didn't say anything, Yang Pojun replied, "Advisor Liu, I think Commander Liang has a lot of misunderstandings. Yesterday at the Li Family's banquet, there were many guests present who saw Liang Zhen provoking them first, resulting in a tragedy. It was most likely a momentary slip up and not intentional."
"Slip up?" "Haha." The mustached Advisor Liu retorted, "This morning, we have already seen Young Master Liang's corpse. It is simply hair-raising!" What kind of mistake was this? Beheading torture?!
Could it be that your Yang Family really thinks that the entire world is afraid of you just because you are one of the four great families? Do you still want us to pretend to be ignorant after killing someone?! "
Yang Pojun's face was as black as ink, and he couldn't say a word. The reason why the Yang Family was so passive this time was because they knew that they were in the wrong. After all, they had casually killed someone else's son. Even if they were in the wrong first, they had still gone overboard.
The Liang Family was an old family in the south that held real military power, so Yang Pojun didn't dare to be too stubborn.
At this time, Yang Gongming sighed slightly and said leisurely, "I'm old, and I can't control the matters of many young people." If you want me to hand over my eldest grandson, I can't make the decision. He won't listen to me. Whether he wants to go with you or not, you have to ask him. "
"Old Marshal, that's not right." Advisor Liu said seriously, "You are Yang Cheng's grandfather, how could it not be related to you? What's more, you've been refusing to hand Yang Chen over. You've disappointed us generals who respect you. "
Yang Gongming chuckled and spread out his hands, "To be honest, that grandson of mine, Yang Cheng, hasn't returned since he left yesterday. We haven't been able to contact him either. It's really difficult for you to see him."
Staff Officer Liu narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Old Marshal, it's not that we don't trust you, but we're here to seek justice on behalf of Commander Liang, so we must do our best. Even if the Old Marshal says that Yang Cheng isn't at home, we still have to bring people to search before we can find Anxin. "
After saying that, Advisor Liu signaled to the other officers. Someone immediately stood up and shouted at the two groups of soldiers standing outside the door, "You guys, split up and search the backyard carefully! Don't miss a single corner! "
Seeing that the two teams of soldiers had agreed, Yang Gongming suddenly slammed one of his hands on the table beside him!
"Pa!!"
Everyone was shocked, and they looked over in bewilderment.
"Preposterous." The amiable expression on Yang Gongming's face was completely swept away at this moment, turning into a dense cloud. At this moment, the vigorous spirit that had been in the army for half his life finally burst forth.
Yang Gongming slowly stood up, his pair of old eyes flashing with a terrifying electric light.
"A mere chief of staff of a local military district, giving you some face, dares to come to my Yang Family like a fox exploiting a tiger's might. Do you think my Yang Family is an embroidered pillow?
Not to mention the current Liang Shengchuan, even his dead father, Liang Bocheng, would have to respectfully call me chief in front of this old man!
You bunch of eggs that haven't even grown hair grew up in the peaceful years. You haven't even fought a war, and you haven't even held a gun firmly. Do you really think you can be considered a soldier!?
400,000 soldiers in the military region, that's the people's army raised by the country! How could it be his Liang family's!? Liang Shengchuan still wants to rebel and become the emperor!?
If you dare to be presumptuous in my Yang Family, don't blame this old man for falling out with you! "
The moment Yang Gongming scolded, dozens of burly soldiers with loaded guns suddenly appeared from all directions of the Yang mansion. They surrounded Staff Officer Liu and the other officers, as well as the two teams of soldiers on the periphery. The safety of their guns was pulled off as they stared at them fiercely.
These personal guards of the Yang Family were all direct descendants of the Yang Family who had followed them for generations. Most of them were veterans who had retired from the battlefield and continued to serve the Yang Family.
Staff Officer Liu and the others' faces turned pale. They had thought that the Yang Family was in the wrong this time, so they would take a few steps back and try to calm things down. However, they didn't expect that although Yang Gongming looked old, his heart was still so domineering!
Yang Pojun, who was at the side, looked at his father's slightly hooked old figure, but it seemed to be incomparably tall and majestic. For a moment, he was in a daze.
In his memory, only when he was young, when he was ignorant, did he see his father in a military uniform.
Time flew by, and decades had passed. Wind and frost had left countless traces on the old man's face.
However, in the bones of the old man, there was still that fierce and hot-blooded aura of a golden spear and iron horse, causing people to not dare to be careless in the slightest.
"Old …" Old Marshal, please calm your anger. "Staff Officer Liu quickly wiped his cold sweat and said with a stiff smile," This general was confused for a moment, and definitely did not mean to offend you. The Yang Family has been loyal for generations, and they are also the founding fathers of the country. Our Commander Liang has always respected them, and this general also worships them like gods! "
"Scram!"
Yang Gongming's voice was like a bell, and his aura was like a rainbow.
Staff Officer Liu and the others felt as if they had been pardoned, how could they dare to stay any longer? After all, this was someone else's territory. If Yang Gongming said the word "kill", this group of bodyguards, who were like death warriors, would definitely not hesitate to pull the trigger.
Although the people on his side all had their own authority, they did not have the strength to truss a chicken. To put it bluntly, they were still paper tigers that relied on the Liang Family to support them.
Very quickly, a group of people led two groups of people and left the Yang Family's compound in a dejected manner.
After the group of people left, Yang Gongming waved his hand and dispersed the personal guards that were stationed at home.
A hint of fatigue flashed through Yang Gongming's eyes. He sighed lightly and leisurely walked towards the backyard.
"Dad, are you alright?" Yang Pojun hurriedly followed and asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Yang Gongming waved his hand, "The pills that Yang Cheng gave me were not for nothing. With my body, it won't be a problem for me to hold on for another ten to twenty years."
Yang Pojun frowned and said, "That kid is really too unscrupulous. He left this mess behind and ran off without a trace." Dad, is it really appropriate for you to hand over the Yang Family to him? "
Yang Gongming slowly turned his head and looked at his son. His eyes were bright as he said, "You know, if the one who stood up and shouted at them just now wasn't me, this old man, but you, then, I wouldn't have handed over the Yang Family to Yang Cheng."
Yang Pojun's entire body quivered. After a long while, he lowered his head in shame, "I know I was wrong. I was useless. I'm sorry, Dad. I've disappointed you again."
Yang Gongming shook his head, "This isn't your fault. People are always different. You're just not suitable to sit in this position, not because you're not good. That child Yang Cheng is immature, but he isn't all brawn and no brains. He also has what you, as a father, don't have, which is the ruthlessness of others! "
After saying that, Yang Gongming continued to walk towards the backyard. When he entered the backyard, the servant had already poured a pot of steaming hot green tea.
After the old man sat down, Yang Pojun said worriedly, "Dad, should we let my sister and her family return to Zhong Hai for the time being? I'm afraid the Liang Family won't let this matter rest. Liang Shengchuan sent people over this time to scout out the situation. I'm afraid there will be a lot of things to do next."
Yang Gongming waved his hand, "No need. If it's not safe at home, then it's the same wherever we go." Although the death of Liang Shengchuan's son is a big deal, the key is to regain the face of the Liang Family. He won't hurt some side branches for no reason. He will definitely come to our family to ask for the person. "
Yang Pojun nodded, frowning and thinking about countermeasures. Then he heard a little girl's laughter coming from outside.
After a while, he saw Yang Cheng holding Lanlan and walking into the backyard with Lin Ruoxi.
However, the chubby little girl's dress made not only Yang Pojun but also many servants of the Yang Family feel strange.
No one knew where Lanlan got a big straw hat made of yellow grass leaves. There were some colorful stripes on her chubby face, just like an Indian. The red vest on her body was also dirty, as if she had rolled in the sand.
Lin Ruoxi was also quite embarrassed. No one knew who drew a few red and green horizontal lines on her beautiful face, as if to match Lanlan's mother and daughter makeup.
"Great-grandpa!"
Lanlan jumped down quickly like a little meatball and jumped onto Yang Gongming's leg, almost causing Yang Gongming to fall off the stool.
"Aiyo, look at you, where did little Lanlan go to play? Why didn't she come home last night?" Yang Gongming looked at the coarse straw hat on his great-granddaughter's head and asked in confusion.
Lanlan smiled sweetly and said, "The elephants in the zoo are afraid of the cold and won't come out. Dad took Lanlan to a place called Africa to see elephants!"
