Lord of the Desert

Chapter 62

After two cups of hot wine, at Hong Fan's request, Hong Fu searched his brains and told all about his knowledge and knowledge about the reciprocity between his son and his concubine.

"It has been passed on for more than ten days. According to your analysis, Brother Fan, it seems that it is indeed passed on from the outside to the family."

"The eldest son is still the same as usual. I have met him a few times, and he is even more pleasant than before!"

"The children all know about it. After the news spread, Hong Ping reacted the most. He didn't even say a word to me."

"Not all of them are like him. There are a few others who have good eyesight, and they are eager to curry favor with me. They want me to bring you to see you!"

After eating half of the food and wine, Hong Fan basically had a firm grasp of the situation and had a plan in mind.

He had a background in science and engineering in his previous life, and he always hated riddlers.

Now that the turmoil against him has been completed, and it is obviously full of malice, Hong Fan may not be able to catch the instigator, but at least he can guarantee the unity within the Hong Mansion.

Gein had never coveted power within the Hong family, nor was he interested in becoming Hong Sheng's competitor.

The position of patriarch is power and responsibility.

Hong Fan didn't want to be tied up in the frontier of Dahua for the rest of his life.

Therefore, after sending Hong Fu away after drinking and eating, the first thing he did was to seek virtue, hoping to arrange for him to meet Hong Jian and Hong Sheng.

······
After Qiu De spread the word, he gave feedback that night - the Eldest Master and Eldest Young Master both have time tomorrow afternoon.

On October 23, Hong Fan arrived at the patriarch's study half an hour earlier.

Before passing the porch, the fragrant medicinal fragrance has already filled the nose.

At this time, Hong Sheng hadn't arrived yet, and only father and son were seated.

Hong Fan hadn't seen Hong Jian for a whole month since Wen Zhongguan was invited to a banquet last time.

Looking at him at this time, the latter is still in a red robe, and although he does not lose the imposing manner of climbing the mountain, his complexion looks pale.

"How is Bai Lu Dan used?"

Hong Jian spoke first.

"All four of them have been used up, breaking through two rules."

Hong Fan replied truthfully.

Hearing that the four elixirs had been used up in a month and the effect was not as expected, Hong Jian was slightly taken aback and didn't say much.

"Two serious things in one month, it can be said to be extremely fast; are there any side effects along the way?"

he asked again.

"There are no side effects, but there are indeed some abnormalities."

Hong Fan replied.

"I used to sleep very soundly and had no dreams at night, but during this time I have more and more daydreams."

"Most of the content is martial artist training, city building and the like. After stopping the drug, it will soon return to normal."

Hong Jian nodded when he heard the words, but couldn't figure it out after thinking for a moment.

The study fell silent.

After a round of dialogue, neither of them seemed to know how to continue.

So the father stared at the lines on the teacup, and the son stared at the potted plants by the window, as if they were each comprehending the mystery inside.

Fortunately, the embarrassment didn't last long.

Hong Sheng arrived with pressure.

"There are some matters that hinder me, so my father and my second brother have been waiting for a long time."

The Eldest Young Master was familiar with this study room, he saluted slightly after entering, and naturally sat down opposite Hong Fan.

His appearance and demeanor seem to have remained unchanged from before.

"Second brother made a special trip to ask Qiude to inform him, but what's the matter?"

Hong Sheng was very used to Hong Jian's silence, so he took the initiative to pour tea and water in a half-host attitude, stirring up the topic.

Then, he was shocked by his younger brother's straightforwardness.

"Brother must have heard about it. There are disputes within and outside the clan, guessing that I am the Hong family or Yi Yishu."

Hong Fan said frankly, looking directly at Hong Sheng.

Hong Jian's lip line was slightly tight, and he didn't speak.

"It's true."

Hong Sheng couldn't figure out the meaning of his younger brother's words, so he was a little at a loss, so he had to put on his usual gentle smile first.

"Second brother inherits the mantle of Lord Shakespeare, and he will surely achieve great achievements in the future. It is normal for everyone to have such imaginations."

"If the second younger brother is in charge of family affairs in the future, Brother Yu will have nothing to say..."

No matter inside or outside the clan, the eldest son of the Hong family has always been famous for his unwavering nature and watertightness.

At this time, his father was by his side, and he instinctively woven the shell of his brothers and friends to hide his true emotions.

But what Hong Fan wanted was not this kind of "response".

"Where did the 'ordinary imagination' come from? Brother, can't you see the malice after this turmoil?!"

His eyebrows raised, and he interrupted suddenly.

"Now our family is prosperous, but if there is decline, it must come from internal discord."

"I asked a few people in detail, and they all said that these words started from outside the clan and spread to the clan; I secretly thought that his heart could be punished!"

Hong Jian and Hong Sheng are not stupid people.

How could they not understand the truth of these words?

"Second brother is right."

Hong Sheng straightened his back with a solemn expression, but he didn't speak again for a while.

His stingy gesture of words, on the contrary, made people see his sincerity.

"I want to see my brother today, just to express my position clearly on this matter."

As Hong Fan spoke, he got up suddenly, and bowed his hands to Hong Jian.

"Father is here to testify that from now on, and from now on, Hong Fan, regardless of whether he has achieved martial arts authority or not, will never have the heart to change his family from a child to an adult!"

What he said was categorical, like making an oath, making Hong Jian and Hong Sheng feel complacent.

In order to fight for power and profit among the rich and powerful families, all kinds of scheming schemes have been used.

If Hong Fan's words were only spoken privately with Hong Sheng, sincerity would at most lose three points.

But at this time, there are two biological fathers and contemporary patriarchs by their side, so the weight of these statements is different.

"Hong Fan."

Hong Jian softly called the concubine's full name, put his hands on his knees, and leaned forward slightly.

"Do you know how important words are today? If they are not sincere, they can be taken back now."

"I am your father, and I must know that your words in front of me must not be repeated!"

After the words fell, Xuan Ao suddenly came to life.

This was the first time that Hong Fan felt the true power of the number one master in Jinhai.

The leaves are dehydrating, the flowers are carbonizing, the tea is boiling and swirling, and the tables and chairs are about to burn...

The atmosphere in the study freezes instantly, as if a tropical storm is about to stare at it, making people feel that the sky is high and the earth is small and there is nowhere to rely on.

But Hong Fan had no intention of backing down.

"I'm going to use this to prove my sincerity!"

He looked directly at Hong Jian's fiery pupils, and replied word by word.

"it is good."

Hong Jian replied lightly, everything in the study seemed to be amnesty.

Hong Fan glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw that the potted teapot remained unchanged, as if everything was an illusion just now.

"Asheng, pour tea for your brother."

Hong Jian leaned back in his chair and ordered in a false voice.

"Yes."

Hong Sheng immediately took the order.

He got up and emptied the teapot and teacup, washed it, re-brewed the tea leaves, filled the cup, and placed it in front of Hong Fan with both hands.

"Brother Yu will live up to the importance of my second brother!"

Hong Sheng put down his teacup, his breathing was slightly unsteady.

This time, Hong Fan did not humble himself, but raised his glass and drank it all.

After the empty cup paused, he realized that his shirt had been soaked in sweat during the conversation with Hong Jian just now.

The topic of the conversation settled down, and the atmosphere in the study relaxed.

"I will communicate with your uncles about today's matter."

Hong Jian said, with an obvious smile on his face.

"No matter what, the two of you will be the pillars of your family and the pillars of Jinhai in the future."

"Sheng'er, as an elder brother, you should take care of your younger brother."

At this time, Hong Sheng's heart was very hot, and he immediately implemented the request.

"I heard from my friends in the Martial Arts Institute that the new four rankings will be released at the end of October; the younger generations of each family have already made appointments as usual, and they are going to listen to Haige to watch the rankings."

"I will arrange for my second brother to go with me, just to introduce to my colleagues in Jinhai."

PS: The four rankings are learned from the master of the first life.

The old assembly in the last book also learned secrets, but the learning was broken...
