    Just two hours later, Zhang Yang got the news and hurried back to his home in Jinwu City At this moment, the Zhang family lives in the inner city at the core of Jinwu City. The entire inner city covers an area of ??more than 1,500 acres.  Protected by high castle walls and backed by mountains, rivers and gardens, it already has the appearance of a truly wealthy family.  There are more than 20,000 Golden Crow Guards guarding the inner city. The Golden Crow Guards' barracks are right next to the inner city and can be mobilized at any time. As soon as the news of Zhang Ping's assassination came, the Golden Crow Guards guarding the inner city suddenly  Like a beast with a sting, it was full of murderous intent. Even the entire Golden Crow City was under martial law. Groups of fully armed patrol soldiers suddenly appeared on the streets in the city. The atmosphere in the entire Golden Crow City suddenly became tense.  Tight.  Zhang Yang's flying boat landed directly on the landing field in the inner city. As soon as the flying boat landed and the door opened, Zhang Yang, with a livid face and a serious look on his face, walked out under the escort of a knight master. He had been waiting at the flying boat landing field for a long time.  Several people outside quickly greeted him and followed Zhang Yang's footsteps towards the inner house.  "How is my father?" Zhang Yang hurriedly asked a man who looked like a housekeeper directly.  "Everything is fine, sir. He was just a little frightened. He is teasing some young masters at home now" Zhang Yang's footsteps were so fast that the housekeeper almost jogged to keep up.  Hearing these words, Zhang Yang's face improved a little. Dad can still entertain some grandchildren in the house, which means that dad is really fine.  "Has the city gate been sealed?" Zhang Yang looked at another man wearing the uniform of the Golden Crow Guard.  "The city lord said that there is no need to make things worse and affect the business flow of Jinwu City, so he ordered that the city gates do not need to be blocked" the officer replied.  Hearing this, Zhang Yang frowned slightly, but then relaxed, because he knew that this was what his father was thinking.  As the city lord, dad feels like he used to look after the family's shop in Black Flame City. He thinks about the family and doesn't care about his own hard work and safety.  Arriving at the inner courtyard, Zhang Yang walked through the courtyards and halls.  The servants and maids in the inner courtyard all hurriedly stood by the roadside, either bowing or blessing, and presented gifts to Zhang Yang one by one.  Finally returned home, the knights sent by Jinpeng Bank who followed Zhang Yang stayed outside, and Zhang Yang walked into the house alone.  After such a big thing happened, almost the whole family gathered in the hall of the main house.  Several of Zhang Tie's younger siblings also came over.  When Zhang Yang saw his father, he saw Zhang Ping happily holding two children of two or three years old and crawling on his lap, while his mother, with a worried look on her face and red eyes, was chatting with Linda next to her.  Several people were talking.  The family saw Zhang Yang coming back.  Except for Zhang Yang's father and mother, almost everyone in the hall stood up and had met Zhang Yang.  These years, Zhang Tie is no longer at home.  Zhang Yang started the Zhang family business by himself, inside and outside.  He is becoming more and more dignified as the head of the family.  "Dad" A young man also stood up and called Zhang Yang politely. Zhang Yang nodded.  This young man is Zhang Chengan.  Zhang Chengan, who was born in the year 890 of the Black Iron Calendar, is now a strong boy who looks to be thirteen or fourteen years old. His facial features also show more similarities with Zhang Yang. As the eldest son and grandson of the third generation of the Zhang family,  Below are a group of younger brothers and sisters. Zhang Chengan has had a stable personality since he was a child. Although he is not very old, it seems that he already has a somewhat calm temperament.  "Dad, are you okay?" Zhang Yang came and sat down in front of Zhang Ping. After carefully looking at Zhang Ping from head to toe, he felt completely relieved.  "I'm fine, what can I do" As Zhang Ping spoke, he straightened his feet and let the two children use his feet as a slide to climb up, climb up and slide down again, enjoying themselves.  Haha, Linda and the others came over to take the two children away, but Zhang Ping stopped them.  "I will ask Liu Gongfeng to follow you from now on!" "No, you often do things outside. If you don't have a knight master by your side, you will not be at ease at home and outside. In this Huaiyuantang, all knights are from the family.  Elder, the Tianji Sect has arranged for a knight to sit in our house to protect our family. This is already very eye-catching. There are already countless people talking outside. I, a small Lord of the Golden Crow City, are following me.  What will everyone in Huaiyuantang think of a master who is a family elder?" Zhang Ping turned his head and said to Zhang Yang seriously.  "But" Zhang Yang was speaking one word outside, and his majesty was growing day by day, but at home, in the middle of his words, Zhang Ping raised his hand to interrupt him, and he could only listen obediently.  Zhang Ping let out a long sigh, "In my lifetime, I can see that your brothers can earn such a family fortune in Taixia, and the entire Zhang family will prosper, and Cheng'an??Chengze and the others are more successful than the other. I can help you two brothers look after your house when I can. I am very satisfied. In the past in Black Flame City, when I earned a few gold coins a month in the factory, where could I go?  I can imagine that I, Zhang Ping, will be able to live such a life one day. Although something happened today, even if I can't come back today, I won't have any regrets in my heart" Hearing what Zhang Ping said, Zhang Tie's mother said  Tears fell again over there, "I told your father that if the position of the lord of Golden Crow City is dangerous, just don't do it" "You are just a woman, those people really want to take action.  , unless we, the Zhang family, stay in the inner city all our lives and never go out, otherwise, they will find an opportunity sooner or later. This has nothing to do with whether I can be the city lord outside. Such a big Golden Crow City belongs to my family.  Industry, if our own family members in Golden Crow City have to shrink their heads, wouldn¡¯t it be a joke!  "Zhang Ping said to Zhang Tie's mother righteously. Usually Zhang Tie's mother always suppressed Zhang Ping in terms of words, but when it came to such a big event, Zhang Tie's mother did not argue because she  Knowing that Zhang Ping was right. After Zhang Ping finished speaking, he turned to look at Zhang Yang, "My abilities are limited and I am self-aware. With the help of my superiors and subordinates, my position as the Lord of the Golden Crow City is already the limit. This is also the limit.  I can still help you two brothers. Don¡¯t make this matter too big. After two days, I will do whatever I need to do, and I won¡¯t leave behind the affairs of the Golden Crow City government office"  A smile appeared on Zhang Yang's face. "I know, I will arrange other things!"  " "Let's eat. Cheng'an just came back today. It's rare for the whole family to have a meal together" Zhang Ping simply stood up with his two children in his arms.  During the meal, Zhang Yang didn't say any more about it.  , and also asked about Zhang Chengan¡¯s academic studies at Youzhou Academy. Youzhou Academy is now the highest-level official school in Youzhou. The teaching staff is the best in Youzhou, and it gathers top talents in all aspects.  From time to time, knight-level elders or guest ministers from various families in Youzhou would come to teach. Even if Huaiyuantang was the governor's family, they would not be able to produce such a lineup. This was also one of Taixia's national policies, which emphasized education.  Therefore, among the various states, the state-level official schools have gathered elites from all walks of life in the state, and catered to both wealthy families and common people. When it comes to the comprehensive teaching strength of the school, the state-level official schools are second to none.  Yes, although it is not impossible, there are only a few wealthy private schools that can compare with the state-level official schools. But there is another point that no wealthy private school can compare with the official schools.  The connections that can be made in school. No matter what the private school, most of the children are from one family, with a few related households or branch bloodlines mixed in. This is a limitation in itself, but in the official school, there is no such restriction.  In the same school, there are many children from wealthy families at all levels, and there is no shortage of children from civilians. Not to mention the wealthy families, even among the children of the common people, there may be a few county ministers and governor-level figures in the Taixia court in the future.  Officials will be deliberately selected among civilians to balance the influence of local wealthy families. Nearly half of the people who can study in Youzhou Academy have contributed to Youzhou Academy and come from various wealthy families in Youzhou.  Disciples, this is a quota, and the other half are outstanding young people from Youzhou who have been admitted through open selection. Zhang Chengan has entered Youzhou Official School for three years. Of course, the education at the state-level official school is compared to the large sects in Taixia.  They are two different things, and the two sides are taking two different routes. It is a coincidence that Zhang Chengan was participating in the internship class at the school. Just today, he passed by Jinwu City and saw the tense atmosphere in Jinwu City. Zhang Chengan asked about his grandfather.  He was assassinated, so he hurriedly ran home to visit him. "Go back after dinner. Don't rely on your status to be special in Youzhou Academy!"  "Zhang Yang said to his son. "Dad, don't worry, I have never mentioned my identity in the school. Except for a few teachers in the school, most students only know that I am from Yanghe County, and the others  I don¡¯t know, and when I came out this time, I also took six hours of leave with the gentleman who led the team. Seeing that grandpa was fine, I felt relieved and wanted to go back" Zhang Chengan said politely. Hearing  At this, Zhang Ping nodded, feeling that his son was sensible, "Is this your internship in Golden Crow City?  " "Yes, this is a dual-subject comprehensive internship class on airships and geography. It takes a total of one and a half months. We will take an airship around Youzhou. We will perform maintenance and driving operations on the airship as well as the topography, landforms, properties, resources and cities in various places in Youzhou along the way.  You can learn layout and some content that intersects with military geography" Zhang Ping listened, nodded, and said with emotion, "Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, this method in your school is not the best.It's not bad. You can fly around in the sky and then come down to check and study everywhere. You can combine work and rest. You can learn the skills on the airship without losing the knowledge on the ground. Such conditions are only available in Taixia. Back then in Heilongjiang  Yancheng, I remember when your Uncle Tie was your age, every morning he would eat a sweet potato and rush to school with his schoolbag on his shoulder. Because the school was far away from home, in order to save a few coins on the fare, your Uncle Tie  I couldn't bear to sit on the bus. The so-called internship classes in school were, at best, just a few simple things on the processing bench in the factory, and occasionally they would dig the ground!  You have such a good situation now, you should cherish it, and you should also study your skills seriously and gain knowledge" "I remember everything grandpa said!  "Zhang Cheng'an nodded. Zhang Ping suddenly mentioned Zhang Tie, and the atmosphere at the dinner table became dull. Zhang Tie's mother's eyes had just stopped crying, and now they were a little red again, "You said Zhang Tie last time.  In the Earth Realm?  " Zhang Yang nodded. "I don't know if Guoguo is okay in the Diyuan Realm now. I heard that there is no light all year round, and there are dangerous places everywhere. Magma is everywhere, and monsters are rampant. It's like the Nine Nether Hell. These children,  Just like Cheng Lei and others, they were born with golden keys in their mouths one by one, but now they can talk and have never seen their father" Zhang Tie's mother said worriedly. Linda's chopsticks  Everyone slowed down, and the table was full of delicacies, and everyone had no idea what they were eating "Mom, dad, and a few younger brothers and sisters, don't worry, it won't take long. As long as the Jinwu Merchant Group is still here, Zhang Tie will definitely be able to come back in an honest way.  In a few days, I have established a relationship with Xuanyuan Hill, and Zhang Tie's matter has already had a slight turn for the better" Zhang Yang said in a deep voice. Hearing Zhang Yang's news, everyone in the Zhang family was in high spirits.  Although the assassination of Zhang Ping cast a shadow on the Zhang family, as soon as the family heard that Zhang Tie had the possibility of clearing his grievances and coming back, everyone suddenly felt that as long as Zhang Tie came back, then  , No matter what happens to this family, it is nothing. If Zhang Yang is the helmsman of this family, he steers the Zhang family's ship across the ocean, avoiding rocks and dangerous shoals, and protecting the family.  No one thinks this metaphor is an exaggeration, but Zhang Yang himself also understands that if he is the helmsman, then Zhang Tie is the anchor of this family. As long as Zhang Tie is at home, this family will be safe.  From top to bottom, there was laughter and laughter everywhere, and no one was worried about any obstacles that could not be overcome Although Zhang Ping's assassination was a serious matter, the three generations of the Zhang family, who were numerous and underage, were all in charge.  It's a child. Zhang Yang and Zhang Tie are still in their prime. If they are willing, it won't be a problem to have a hundred more sons, so no one will pay attention to Zhang Chengan and the others. After dinner, Zhang Yang directly arranged for a guard to send Zhang Chengan out.  As soon as Zhang Chengan left, Tang De, the manager of Jinpeng Bank in Jinwu City, came to greet Zhang Ping. When he saw that Zhang Ping was fine, he and Zhang Yang came to the study to talk secretly.  Elder Mu En of the Tang Hall personally arrived with a large number of experts from Youzhou Tingwei Mansion and Huaiyuantang. As soon as these people arrived, they were immediately sent to Golden Crow City to collect various clues After the secret talk with Elder Mu En,  First, they directly arranged for Elder Moon to stay temporarily in the inner city. Then one of Zhang Ping's confidants found an opportunity, came to Zhang Ping, and whispered a few words to Zhang Ping When Zhang Ping heard this, his eyes flashed.  , ¡°Where is that person?  " "It has been placed in Starlight Castle" "I'll go take a look" (To be continued.)
