Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 33 Defense by day, defense by night, house thief is hard to guard against
After the dough was divided, things were arranged.

Guan Lin showed a faint, almost invisible smile, put his arms on the shoulders of a group of beggars again, and pressed slightly hard.

He whispered: "These quilts and bread are given to you in advance, this time the matter is done, I will send the rest of the quilt and bread tomorrow."

A group of beggars looked at Guan Lin gratefully.

Their leader opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when he raised his eyes, he met Guan Lin's eyes, and then closed his mouth again.

"What? Are you worried? Something I arranged?"

"No, no!" The beggar shook his head repeatedly, "We are grateful for the kindness of the young master. If there is no young master, we don't know how long we will be hungry."

Speaking of this, he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he looked at the heavy wooden box from the corner of his eye.

Guan Lin quickly asked: "Is it because you are worried about the rebellious words written on the notice in the wooden box?"

"Neither..."

This time, all the beggars shook their heads at the same time, "My lord, we do things for you. You can eat hot cakes, put on new clothes, and now even have bedding. At night, you don't have to be cold in the mountain temple." Don't say that the son is kind, he doesn't look like he is doing something bad, even if the son really wants us to do something bad, we will... do it too, as long as it is not murder and arson, we will not be kicked out of Jiangling by Guan Gong !"

This…

Instead, Guan Lin was confused. He looked suspiciously at the group of beggars in front of him, and said solemnly, "No, you must have something to do! Well, since you can't trust me, then I won't come tomorrow. My son, please be clever!"

"Young master..." Now, several beggars grabbed Guan Lin's clothes, for fear that he would get angry and walk away.

The beggar leader pondered for a moment, before explaining: "Young master has helped us so much, but we don't even know his name... and don't know how to address him? Brothers want me to ask you, sir. I don't dare to..."

It turned out to be the name.

But this name...is not easy to handle.

Guan Lin's eyeballs rolled.

He murmured in his heart that the bedding, clothes and bread were all "stolen" from the Guan family, so he couldn't say that he was the "fourth son of the Guan family".

Seeing how these beggars looked in awe of their father, Guan Lin wanted to tell his real name, fearing that he would not be able to fool them in the future.

Simply…

"My surname is 'Hong', you can simply call me 'Hong Qigong'."

——Hong Qigong?

A group of beggars looked at each other with suspicious expressions on their faces. Why is the name so old-fashioned?
Guan Lin smiled at them.

"Remember clearly, my son will not change his name or surname when he sits down. His surname is Hong, and he is the seventh in his family, so in the Jianghu...ah no, it is the people in Jiangling City who think highly of me and call me 'Seven Lords', and they are with that What 'Liao Jiugong' and 'Guan Gong' are the same, but they are only weaker than 'Jingzhou Jiumuwang'!"

Guan Lin explained a long list in a mess.

It's just... the word "gong" is often said to make people feel "not easy to mess with", which is very compelling.

You know, among the five titles of "Gong", "Hou", "Bo", "Zi" and "Nan" in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, "Gong" was ranked first.

Even in the Han Dynasty, it was extended as a respectful title for elders.

Of course, the beggars have never read the book, so naturally they don't know this.

But inexplicably, because of the word "gong", he was even more in awe of Guan Lin, and quickly kowtowed: "We... we thanked Hong Qigong!"

Uh…

Guan Lin quickly helped them up.

The eyeballs must be, suddenly thought of something, and quickly said: "You must remember that everything we do is a big thing, don't let others know who I am? What do I look like!"

Whoops...

A group of beggars looked at each other, feeling more and more that the "Hong Qigong" in front of them was completely unpredictable.

...

...

The cook in Guan's mansion was carrying a bundle of firewood on his back, humming a little tune and wandering into the woodshed.

As soon as he put down the firewood, a cold knife was placed on his neck.

"Don't make a sound!" It was Guan Yinping.

The cook was about to pee in fright, and turned around tremblingly, "No, no...don't dare...Miss Guan San is so...raise your hands high!"

Guan Yinping said in a deep voice: "As the cook of the Guan family, why did you steal the noodles from the house? Who instructed you?"

what…

The guy was stunned, and he asked tremblingly, "I...I was about to ask, but for two days in a row, the steamed bread seemed to have grown wings and turned into a butterfly...flying away. I...I I don't know what's going on!"

With the knife on his neck, the cook's trousers were completely wet.

Just then, the door of the firewood room opened.

Guan Lin came in with a food box, saw the scene in front of him, and hurriedly pressed Guan Yinping's knife.

"Third sister, this is the cook in our house, if you have something to say, don't use the knife!"

Only then did Guan Yinping put down the knife, the cook's legs softened and he hurriedly supported the door before standing still.

With a cry of "ah", Guan Yinping sighed and looked back at Guan Lin, "In the past two days, there have been frequent thefts in the mansion, first bread for dozens of people, and seven or eight old clothes. All the quilts in the human room have been stolen! Does the fourth brother know about this?"

"Know...you know? Uh! Know!"

It is obvious that Guan Lin is a little guilty...but the word "know" at the end is still very firm.

"Defense by day, guard by night, it's hard to guard against house thieves!" Guan Yinping raised his sword sharply, "If you want me to know who dares to steal in Guan's mansion, I will definitely split him in two!"

Uh…

As soon as this remark came out, Guan Lin trembled, and he subconsciously took a step back.

Immediately, he quickly helped the third sister Guan Yinping put away the knife, "Third sister, it's not that my younger brother is talking about you, it's so boring to fight and kill... Girls, it would be nice to learn how to be a female celebrity, right?"

While talking, Guan Lin put Guan Yinping's knife into the scabbard and put it aside.

The cold light was shining, and it looked quite creepy.

At this time, the cook noticed that Guan Lin was holding a food box for rice in his hand, and asked quickly, "Fourth Young Master? Isn't this food box the one from the kitchen? Zensheng Fourth Young Master holds it?"

what…

Now, Guan Lin was a little embarrassed. He wanted to say——he came to see if he steamed the pancakes tonight, and to "take" a little more, but... how to say this?
It was Guan Yinping who became vigilant, "It's not dinner time yet, what is fourth brother doing here at this hour?"

"I…"

Guan Lin paused for a moment, then said hastily: "Sister San, I'm just hungry and want to have a pancake!"

"No!" The unique keenness and sense of smell of a woman reminded Guan Yinping. "Fourth brother, you said just now that you knew about the theft of bread at home!"

This statement came out.

The cook's eyes widened, and he looked at Guan Lin in astonishment.

hiss…

Guan Lin, on the other hand, took a deep breath, isn't this sister a bit too sensitive?

"I suddenly remembered that kid Guan Suo ran to Bao's Village late at night again!"

"...Third sister, I'm leaving first..."

A sudden sentence came out... Guan Lin slipped out of the kitchen like a rabbit.

On the other hand, Guan Yinping realized it, but let out an "ah" and let out a heavy breath.

Over there...

Not far from the kitchen is Guan's study.

At this moment, Guan Yu invited Liao Jiugong to come here, and Liao Jiugong was holding a stack of thick bamboo slips. These were the articles and answer sheets that Guan Lin had written during Liao Jiugong's examination during his literary study in the past six months.

Guan Yu took one casually and unfolded it slowly.

But it's okay if it doesn't unfold, once unfolded, he just feels dizzy.

What is it all about?
"——I checked the history of the great man, and found that the great man has no age, and each of the crooked bamboo slips has the words "God-given by the king" and "benevolence, righteousness and morality". I couldn't sleep anyway. After reading it in the middle of the night, I saw the words between the words, and the two words written all over the book are: eat people!"

Guan Yu's slightly squinted eyes gradually narrowed, Dan Feng's eyes widened angrily, and he said ruthlessly towards the bamboo slip.

"What shit! Article?"

Guan Yu considers himself a man of culture, and he seldom swears.

But this time, he really... couldn't hold back!
