Seeing the blood stains on Wang Dan's body, Yang Liu'er felt distressed and came to the ground to check carefully: Fortunately, it was someone else's blood, and he himself was unscathed.
"Zhen'er has made his mark!"
Yang Liu'er looked at Yang Zhen with a look of relief, nodded and praised Wang Dan.
Wang Chang and others on the side also cast their eyes with admiration and gratitude. This made Yang Zhen feel a little embarrassed despite being proud. He touched his hair in shame and said:
"Are you there? If I had come here earlier, my father, mother, wife, brothers, sisters-in-law, and nephews would all have endured so much hardship! Again, all the causes of suffering are because of me, and I have always been in my heart. I feel guilty and uneasy! I can’t help you!"
Yang Zhen blames all problems on himself and can be considered a responsible person.
This confession made his family look at him with admiration; no one seemed to care about Yang Zhen's various "workplace records" in the past! Everyone feels that a person who values family ties, is filial to his parents, and loves his wife and children should not be the "unfaithful and unjust" person rumored to be.
With the unanimous approval of his family, Yang Zhen felt the "honor" and "warmth" given to him by his "family" for the first time, and his heart that was only loyal to "Tan Country" also changed.
Or, only a place with family members is the harbor where the heart can truly rest forever!
"Home".
Is it a geographical term? A room? Or is it a social organization of a group of people?
Yang Zhen now feels that his "home" is this group of people. Wherever these people are, his "home" is there.
For this "family", he can do anything.
However, now is not the time for him to cry with emotion. After all, this large family is still in the land of Song Dynasty. As long as they have not escaped from Song Dynasty, danger will always surround them.
"Zhen'er, the girls from Luyuan bought you, are you all okay?"
Yangliu'er felt that she had to pay attention to her eldest daughter-in-law's family at this time to express her gratitude.
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on them from home!"
"Well, how good it is! How good it is!"
"Zhen'er, according to your wishes, how about we go to Binzhou later?"
Wang Dan was very rare and did not order Yang to pour it, but consulted him first.
"Let's go to Tan State first! I have a fiefdom in Guodu, where I can provide food, clothing, sleep, and support for my parents and brothers. It's no problem!"
Yang Zhen was very grateful that this time gave him an opportunity to "obey his parents" and gained such "respect" from his father.
"Okay! In that case, as you wish, go to Guodu first, and then make plans after everyone has rested."
Although Wang Dan didn't feel much about the Tan country, he always felt that it was just a small country; but since his son had such good material conditions, it was considered the best choice at the moment.
The opinions were unanimous, and everyone immediately set off with the caravan of "Zeofu", heading east towards the country of Tan.
Although their opinions on fleeing were "unified", the opinions of Wang Dan and Xiang Xu were also "unified". Now there is a huge difference between the two decisions: even if Wang Dan wants to "break his promise" , Xiang Xu also had to give him a chance to "fool through".
As the current administrative leader of the Song Dynasty, the head of the Six Ministers, and the most powerful head of the Xiang family of the Huan family, Xiang Xu received a report from below and learned that a group of Xiang family officers and soldiers brought by Wang Dan actually got into a scuffle with the Hua family. , and the team leader was the first to "hang up"! Among the remaining soldiers, many were dead or wounded, and including those who rushed back to report the news, only three people came back from this "private" mission!
Not to mention that this "action" was not applied to the court at all; even if the "application" was approved, the death of so many officers and soldiers from both sides at once would have enough impact on the people and the court. Let the current monarch take the opportunity to provoke other families to question the ability of the Huan family to govern Xu Zhengqing. The top position of power that he finally sat on will be shaken!
The power relationship between the monarch and his ministers in the Song Dynasty was originally extremely delicate: everyone tacitly understood each other and had been secretly competing with each other; several forces were constantly looking for each other's loopholes, hoping to conquer them in one fell swoop and break the existing pattern.
Focusing on the resurrection of "Yang Zhen" and the fact that "Wang Dan" stole the "Hua family tree" and put forward the suggestion of "estrangement", Xiang Xu spent all night carefully studying the various branches of the Hua family. The relationship between the two branches was at the stage of making up their mind and making initial plans. As a result, the current difficult situation required him to immediately express his attitude and take measures to deal with the emergency crisis.
"Lose the city!"
Before Wang Dan and his family had time to run to the east gate, the order to "close the city" had been issued to all the gatekeepers.
As a result, in the entire Tan Kingdom, the four gates were tightly closed and the suspension bridge was raised. No matter how many people who could not enter or leave the city shouted and fought, the heavy gates of the city were lowered.
According to Yang Zhen's arrangement, "Zeofu"'s caravan was ambushed everywhere inside and outside the city, including in the boundary mountains in the suburbs.
The "Cepheus" caravan, which has always been "broken into parts", has long had its own communication method: each caravan is equipped with a "communications" car and a car of "carriage pigeons" to deliver messages at any time.
Now, after the city was closed, Xiang Xu ordered the entire city to be under martial law and began house-to-house inspections.
The vendors all over the street were driven to pieces, and many of the goods were thrown onto the street with their stalls before they could be collected. The disobedient "businessmen" were all captured by the officers and soldiers and imprisoned.
In less than one stick of incense, the entire city became quiet and became an "empty city."
Even the dogs, who usually chase and play, were confused by this unusual "quietness". They looked at the blue sky, white clouds, bright sun, and the lively birds on the branches, and kept looking at them. Barking, it seems that he is also asking:
"What happened? Where have these people gone?"
The officers and soldiers searched very quickly: according to the administrative divisions in the market, the "police police" in each district ordered people to stand guard at the main entrances and exits. Sentries were also set up at high places to prevent people from escaping from the roof, and then used "scanning" methods to In this way, each family started a "clean-up" style search.
Yang Zhen and his family hid in a winery rented by "Zeofu". In the wine storage room in the basement, everyone got into a large wine vat with a straw lid, and they didn't dare to say a word. , waiting for this "search" to pass quickly.
"What's going on down there?"
"Sir, they are all old wines, yellow rice wines, cellared and aged wines. How about you give it a try?"
Wang Dan's family in the wine cellar could clearly hear the conversation between the store clerk and the officers and soldiers who came to search.
Everyone held their breath, fearing that making any more noise would attract the attention of the officers and soldiers.
"when---"
