Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 898: Chapter 650: Oh My God, Why Is He Here? (2)

Yang Zhenshan’s attitude could be one of two: support or no support.

He naturally hoped that Yang Zhenshan would support Yang Mingzhao, which would give Yang Mingzhao a great chance to overthrow the Da Rong Court.

But if Yang Zhenshan didn’t support, he felt that Yang Zhenshan wouldn’t go as far as to kill Yang Mingzhao!

Yang Mingzhao was stunned for a moment, then sighed dejectedly, "Ah, I originally wanted to delay things a bit longer, but now it seems I can’t hide it any longer!"

He felt a bit confused, a chaotic mess of thoughts.

Anxious, flustered, not knowing what to do!

However, he had mentally prepared himself; what Li Wenchun said was right, what needed facing had to be faced eventually.

"Young Master, you should think about how to get the old Marquis’s support!" Li Wenchun reminded.

Yang Mingzhao’s expression shifted slightly, he took a deep breath to calm his chaotic emotions.

"Go invite Li Chang over!"

"Me?" Li Dagui was a bit stunned.

Yang Mingzhao looked at him and forced a smile, "We must be ready for the best, sooner or later, go on!"

Li Dagui instantly deflated like a punctured ball, the whole person collapsed.

Just a moment ago he was a flamboyant General, now he resembled a child in trouble afraid to face his parents.

"I’m going now!" Li Dagui stepped heavily towards the door.

The way he shuffled step by step was hardly like an Innate Martial Artist.

On the other side, Li Chang and his entourage had already arrived at the entrance of the government office.

"Cough, cough~~"

As soon as they stood at the entrance, they heard a light cough.

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a tall figure standing not far away.

"Lord Wu!" Li Chang bowed with cupped fists as he greeted.

Wu Zheng looked at them with some annoyance, "How did you all find your way here?"

Compared to Li Dagui, Wu Zheng had much more self-confidence.

Wu Zheng wasn’t just the head of the Yang family’s guards; he was also Yu Qingyi’s junior disciple and Yang Zhenshan’s brother-in-law.

They were real relatives!

Not to mention facing Li Chang, even facing Yang Zhenshan, Lord Wu had the opportunity to speak.

Li Chang said helplessly, "We didn’t really want to come!"

"..."

Wu Zheng rolled his eyes at him.

If you didn’t want to come, then why did you all show up?

"Does the old Marquis know?"

"I’ve already sent someone back to report!" Li Chang replied.

"Alright, let’s go!" Wu Zheng, realizing there was no chance to salvage the situation, could only lead Li Chang and his group into the government office.

As soon as they entered, they saw Li Dagui staggering over like a toddler learning to walk.

"Ah haha, Boss Li, you’re here!" Li Dagui, seeing Li Chang, forced a smile more painful than crying as he spoke.

Li Chang glared at him without speaking, Wu Zheng gave him a look of "you’ll have to figure it out yourself."

The two personal followers with Li Chang wore menacing smiles.

Daring to follow Mr. Si recklessly, you deserve a beating!

Failing to stop Mr. Si, you deserve a beating!

Mr. Si causing trouble, and you followed along making a mess, you deserve a beating even more!

Hehe, just wait to get punished!

Li Dagui felt those two malicious gazes and truly wanted to cry.

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

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

Li Dagui was a guard by Yang Mingzhao’s side, Ma Yan and Lu Bo were Yang Mingzhao’s servant boys.

Actually, Ma Yan was slightly better off; his grandfather Ma San was the Yang family’s stableman, a long-term worker, not exactly a slave.

Lu Bo was different; his grandfather Lu Shou was a servant to the Yang family, and he himself was born into servitude for the Yang family.

Although the Yang family had long since done away with servants, and former household slaves had become ordinary citizens of Star Moon Island, the Yang maids and servants worked on a contractual basis, the servants still considered themselves as belonging to the Yang family.

Don’t think being a servant was a bad thing; it meant they had a close relationship with the Yang family, the ones most loyal to the family.

But this also meant their lives and deaths were constantly under the Yang family’s control.

At this moment, Ma Yan was panicking and scared!

He was truly afraid of Yang Zhenshan’s wrath.

"It’s over, it’s over, I’m doomed! Boo-hoo, Young Master, you must protect me!"

"I previously advised the Young Master, but he didn’t listen, and I couldn’t do anything!"

"Heavens above, gods and spirits protect me, may the master be benevolent and not blame me!"

"Boo-hoo, may the master be benevolent!"

Ma Yan was so scared his face turned white.

"Sir, sir, sir~~"

At this moment, an official from the government office approached, seeing Ma Yan crouched and dared to ask.

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

"Sir, your face is so pale, are you really alright?" the official asked with some concern.

Ma Yan muttered, "No worries, no worries!"

After speaking, he quickly retreated to his office, leaving the official puzzled.

On the other side, Li Chang had already entered the study and met with Yang Mingzhao.

"Li Chang greets Mr. Si!" Li Chang bowed.

Yang Mingzhao had already calmed himself, his eyes no longer showed panic, and instead, he smiled as he approached Li Chang, warmly grabbing his arm, saying, "Haha, Uncle Li is here, haven’t seen you in half a year, Uncle Li looks more imposing!"

Li Chang also smiled and asked, "Mr. Si, how have you been these past months?"

"Good, haha, still good!" Yang Mingzhao felt a bit apprehensive and asked, "Does my father know?"

"Probably not yet!" Li Chang said.

"Really?" Yang Mingzhao’s eyes lit up.

Li Chang nodded, "I already sent someone back to inform them, by now they probably haven’t returned yet!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Mingzhao immediately slumped again!
