Kong Lianshun frowned, without saying a word, and looked stunned, as if he was trying hard to think about something.

"Don't worry, think about it slowly. Leave here first."

Ding Bao knew that he was so frightened that he was so scared that his legs were still shaking, and the cold sweat on his back soaked his thin shirt, so he didn't press on him anymore, holding his thin arms and walking out.

The man hidden in "General Ci" heard that the two of them wanted to leave without caring about their care, but they were afraid of being exposed and could not open their mouths to call for help. As the heat was steaming, they were so anxious that they burst into tears. They were helpless and kicked the thick wall of "General Ci" loudly.

Kong Lianshun was still a little hesitant. Hearing the clear and powerful sound of kicking the wall, his expression suddenly relaxed and followed Ding Bao out.

Outside the old Sichuan Post, under two dark lanterns, the manager who nodded and bowed, and lay on the ground with four or five guards.

He didn't even dare to open his mouth to shout when he begged for mercy, and he was still trembling as if walking on thin ice.

It was a cool autumn night, but beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down their foreheads and kept shattering on the grinding stone steps.

Kong Lianshun's face became even darker, and he rushed up in anger. He kicked him, and then he was stopped by Ding Bao. "Okay, just let it go. How dare they fight with you gods, the little officials, do they dare to fight with you gods? Of course, they don't help each other. It's better to avoid as far as they can. If you have no choice, don't make things difficult for you."

He turned his face and told him, "Get up, prepare a carriage, Mr. Kong and I want to use it."

The in charge of the businessman on the ground was almost moved to cry, and kowtowed a few times. The other soldiers followed suit, and the knocks were loud and loud. Until Ding Bao waved his hand, the few people got up from the ground and rushed out at the speed of hearing that his wife was stealing a man.

Soon, Ding Bao and Kong Lian sat steadily in the carriage.

The person in charge insisted on whipping himself, otherwise he would kneel down like his own mother and would not be able to get up, so Ding Bao had to rely on him.

During the whole process, Kong Lianshun did not speak, but only frowned and sighed. Until the carriage stopped, Ding Bao lifted the curtain, and then he suddenly woke up and said, "Brother Ning, why are you back to Xin Inn?"

"Where you fall, you must stand up from wherever you fall."

Ding Bao said, holding his hands and laughed loudly, "Come down, brother will teach you today, what should this prefect do?"

After saying that, he raised his hand and called the manager over, and explained a few words to him. The manager stretched his collar, straightened his chest and abdomen, strode with his head and knocked on the door, and entered the inn.

It was faster than Ding Bao imagined. There was a storm in the inn. After the sound of a fall on the bench and chair was heard, the fat shopkeeper of Laixin Inn who squinted his eyes and liked to look at people with nostrils, supported his trembling white-bearded father. There were seven or eight people behind him. He hurriedly came out in disheveled clothes and kowtowed and knelt down as soon as he met.

The manager of the old Sichuan Post immediately raised his hand to stop him, coughed and said proudly: "Two rooms are in the room. This time, Young Master Kong wants to live in a clean room."

The sweat from the fat shopkeeper's forehead suddenly burst out, and he was so scared that his butt was urinated. He quickly called for a job to go back and prepare.

Before stepping into the gate, Ding Bao looked at him lightly, but to him it was as heavy as a thousand pounds, almost pressing down his fat spine.

The two adjacent rooms were ready soon. As for whether the shop was full, it was unknown whether the guests were driven away. When we arrived at the third floor, before entering the guest room, Ding Bao suddenly turned around and patted the manager who was close to his tail. Hearing this, "Thank you hard for the big night. Master Kong wants to know, what do you call brothers?"

The manager suddenly felt that his bones had been lighter by three pounds, and his head was lowered, and his voice was trembling and floating, "I am humble, Ma Fugui."

"Fugui, good name. Not bad."

After Ding Bao finished speaking, he turned around and closed the door. Seeing Kong Lianshun looking at him with a surprised look, he explained with a smile: "This Ma Fugui is a smart person. If you have any inconvenient things in the future, you can ask him to do it for him. Of course, it is not to ask you to use him to bully others, fish and meat in the countryside..."

While he was talking, the inn's custodian and the inner-master of the street rushed over one after another. Even a magistrate who lived nearby, a military officer and a governor who had experienced the department rushed over and gathered downstairs. Not long after, a general arrestee and seven or eight constables rushed over in a hurry. Without explanation, he automatically and consciously kept guarding outside the door.

"Brother Ning, who are outside?"

"Don't worry. With them under your support, no matter how domineering your cousin is, you must pay a little attention to the influence. You can have a good night's sleep later."

He did this tonight, not because he wanted to pretend to be powerful and vent his anger to collect debts or something. He simply felt that Kong Lianshun was a little too righteous and kind. Although he sometimes looked unrestrained on the outside, he was actually rigid and tragic inside, so he wanted to click on him.

Justice and kindness are naturally good virtues, but everything is too much. As a younger brother, you are bullied in your own territory, and you can't bear it. The most important thing is that with his identity, there are actually many things you can do. If you can adapt a little flexibly in the future, it will naturally be far more beneficial to the people of Xiyan than simple justice and kindness.

Kong Lianshun was also a smart person. After thinking for a while, he poured a cup of tea for Ding Bao, and suddenly said: "Brother Ning, I think carefully. I poisoned the restaurant, put a toad under the bed, and pretended to be a ghost at night. These are not very consistent with the style of Kong Ci's cousin's behavior."

Ding Bao was not surprised when he heard this, and nodded and said, "Continue to talk."

"I have offended my cousin Kong Ci for not once or twice. There is nothing strange about this time. She is attracted to a piece of shanty town next to the old moat. She wants to buy it, and the price is quite solid and fair, but it is destroyed by me. I also know in my heart that the place in my cousin's hands will definitely play a greater role, but I just can't bear it. The shanty town lives in the dead families who sacrificed their lives for the country, the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and most of them cannot make a living normally. These people have short-sighted knowledge and shallow eyes. They want to sell their cousin when he saw that he had offered three times the market price, but no one thought that the money would be spent three or five years. I really can't stand it..."

"You are right, and your cousin is not wrong."

Hearing Ding Bao's support, Kong Lianshun was excited and continued: "What Brother Ning said before was that although his cousin Kong Ci was moody, he was definitely not a person who was tangled in vain. In fact, she was very busy all day long and was very generous and straightforward. Although I was dissatisfied with it, I have to say that cousin Kong Ci was truly the most powerful woman in the world. The domineering and sharp style in front of the city gate yesterday was probably what she did, but then poisoning, releasing insects, and pretending to be a ghost is too petty. If you think about it carefully, it looks like another person's style..."

As he was talking, a fierce knock on the door suddenly came from outside the door. A clear and childish female voice shouted angrily: "Kong Lianshun, open the door!"

When Kong Lianshun heard the sound, he was so scared that he jumped up from the stool. His face changed drastically and he stuttered: "I knew, I knew, it was indeed her!"

"Who is it?" Ding Bao was so anxious.

"My sister, Kong Lianyi." When these three words were mentioned, Kong Lianshun's voice became much lighter. Then he seemed to wake up something, with a panic and frightened face. He was so anxious that he grabbed Ding Bao's arm tightly and begged with a crying voice: "Brother Ning, no matter what, this time, you must help me overcome the difficulties. I have a great kindness and great virtue. I will take grass and rings to make cattle and horses in the next life."

Ding Bao was unmoved: "My sister, what's the matter clear? As for?"

"Brother Ning, you don't know that at least half of Kong Ci's name as a crazy witch was earned by Lianyi for her. Although his cousin was domineering in his work, he still made some sense. But if Kong Lianyi was really crazy, she was even afraid of herself!" Kong Lianshun said as he was so anxious that he almost knelt down.

"What are the benefits of provoking such a person for nothing?"

"I am rescued now. From now on, you will be my elder brother. You will not frown when you go up the mountain and go down the sea of ​​fire. Even if you kneel down and beg your uncle, you will do it for you." Seeing that the knock on the door outside became more and more intense, the little girl seemed to be about to kick the door. Kong Lianshun was really anxious now.

"Why do you think it's up?"

Kong Lianshun stood up solemnly, quickly made a complicated ancient ceremony, and said word by word: "I wish to go with the cold wind and go straight out of the floating clouds."

Ding Bao originally intended to tease him, but he didn't expect that he actually swears in the clan language of the Holy Gate Kong family. He was really a honest person and immediately said, "Open the door."

The door opened, and a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl in yellow shirt, as bright as a sunny flower, walked in with her hands on her back. The girl was in her development period, like a heading rice seedling, from top to bottom, full of youthfulness, her eyebrows, eyes, facial features were very similar to Kong Lianshun, with a very beautiful complexion, and her skin was very white. She was completely extreme with Kong Lianshun's little black face. She didn't know how she gave birth to her parents.

The biggest difference between the two is their eyes, which is different from Kong Lianshun's clear and sincere glance. The little girl's eyes are very charming, smart and clever, and vaguely painted ink, just like a little fox who is always ready to do bad things.

"Haha, Riyi, listen to your brother's explanation, on your birthday..."

"Stop." The little girl Kong Lianyi wrinkled her nose and interrupted Kong Lianshun with anger. She raised her face and said annoyedly: "Hmph, I don't recognize the person who forgot my birthday as my brother. Humph, I forgot my sister's birthday, but I still clearly remembered Kong Ci's cousin's birthday, and even bought a large sum of money to get a gift to please me. What made me so angry that the money I bought for the Bai Diao still stole my money..."

"Rianyi, my brother offended my cousin that day and was in a hurry to leave..."

"Stop it. I only ask you, is the money you bought for Bai Diao my New Year's money? I have saved up all twelve years of New Year's money?"

"……yes."

When Kong Lianshun heard this word spit out, Ding Bao's expression changed suddenly. He moved the stool in disgust, vowing to clarify the relationship with this hypocrite who cheated on the young girl for New Year's money.

"Hmph, I finally admitted it. I didn't agree, and I said it wasn't a steal?"

"It's obviously a borrowing, but how can it be considered stealing for scholars?" Kong Lianshun responded weakly.
