Chaos in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 19 The Mouse Finds the Cat with a Knife
In addition to Chang Wei, there is another person who is Mr. Ma, the teacher of the Guan family. His name is Ma Baoguo, but people in the Guan family generally call him Mr. Ma.

The Ma family in Fuling used to be a big family in Fuling, but many years ago, Majiawu Fort was attacked by robbers. When the county government soldiers rushed to Majiawu Fort, the battle was over. They were piled up in the Wubao compound, and no one survived. The tragic scene made Guan Zhengdao, the trainer of the county army who led the team, couldn't bear to look directly...

Only Ma Baoguo was kneeling in front of the gate covered in blood...

Guan Zhenggan took pity on him, so he let him work as a teacher in the Guan family, with a consistent monthly payment and food and housing.

He has been in the Guan family for many years and has been diligent, but for some reason he and Chang Wei got together.

Guan Ziyang's disciple came forward to pay respects: "Mr. Ma, disciple Ziyang is very polite, may I ask where is Mr. Ma going?"

Before Mr. Ma could speak, Chang Wei said first, "Heh, isn't this Guan Ziyang, the idiot of the Guan family? Why don't you become the son-in-law of the Wei family, what are you doing back here in the Poguan family castle?"

Guan Ziyang retired the engagement in public. He was already there, but now he was obviously mocking Guan Ziyang. Mr. Ma smoothed things over and said, "Ziyang, hurry home and meet your elders. The county magistrate hired me as the acting county magistrate." , I will no longer be your husband."

Guan Ziyang nodded: "Then please respect the teacher and go well, and the disciples will go to visit again in the future."

The county magistrate is an official official position of the imperial court, and it cannot be changed at will. It must be reported to the imperial court and appointed by the imperial court.

But Yizhou is different. The current governor of Yizhou is Xiao Jingwen, a rebel general. Therefore, the appointment of officials in Yizhou is decided by Huan Wen.

Mr. Ma taught Guan Ziyang's books diligently for five or six years. Respecting the teacher is a great gift in the world. "One day is a teacher and a life is a father." Therefore, Guan Ziyang's words of congratulations really come from the heart.

Chang Wei saw that Guan Ziyang ignored him, so he hummed with disdain on his face, his nostrils upturned, and walked forward on his own.

Unexpectedly, he had just walked more than a dozen steps when a sentence came from behind: "A fox pretends to be a tiger, a dog takes advantage of others, cut it!"

Chang Wei turned his head and wanted to pick up the quarrel, but unexpectedly, with a bang, the door of the Guan family was closed tightly, so he could only sulk, and said bitterly in his heart: "Little bastard, I will find a chance to find you bad luck some other day, what do you do?" I am waiting……"

Guan Ziyang entered the door and went straight to the west building of the patriarch Guan Zhengkun.

In the courtyard of the west building, Guan Zisong was lying on a rocking chair and flirting with his maid beside him. Seeing Guan Ziyang entering the courtyard, he sneered and said, "Yo, who am I talking about? The family’s son-in-law, Guan Ziyang, rides the dragon quickly.”

"Ouch... I'm sorry, I forgot, I didn't take it seriously, I got divorced, hahaha..."

Guan Ziyang smiled instead of anger, pointed at Guan Zisong and said, "The Guan family is in decline today because there are too many descendants like you!"

"I don't want to talk nonsense with you, it doesn't matter how much you mock me, but you hit Tuanzi with a whip, and I will help her get this whip back!"

Guan Guiying's pretty face was slightly startled, why is Brother Ziyang so bold today!

Although she was moved in her heart, they were no match for Guan Zisong, and this Guan Zisong was very cunning and always took advantage of the adults, which led to the fact that they were beaten and punished by the adults at home.

Guan Guiying tugged Guan Ziyang's sleeve, and said softly: "Brother, forget it, I don't seem to be in as much pain as before, let's go."

Guan Ziyang gave her a reassuring look, then pointed to Guan Zisong and said, "What kind of whip did you use to beat the dumpling, take it out now!"

The native Guan Ziyang was submissive when he saw Guan Zisong on weekdays, like a mouse seeing a cat, but he was so shocked that he didn't know how to reply.

Guan Zisong was stunned for a long time before he realized it. He slapped the reclining chair with both hands, stood up, and shouted, "Hey, you little bastard, you have the guts of a leopard today! How dare you talk to your elder brother like that?"

He said to the maid at the side: "Cai Die, go and get my whip, I really want to see who the whip fell on!"

Seeing that Guan Zisong was furious, Caidie responded and immediately went out of the yard to get a whip.

Guan Zisong yelled again: "Guan Ziyang, the son-in-law of the Wei family is not considered a son-in-law. You have learned the temper of the gentry. Who are you in the Guan family?"

Guan Ziyang ignored him, he pinched Guan Guiying's cute cheek with nervous expression, and said, "Tuanzi, let's see how I can avenge you."

After a while, Caidie came back trotting all the way with the whip, he handed the whip to Guan Zisong, Guan Zisong took it and raised his hand, and slapped the whip on the bluestone floor with a 'wow' sound.

"Guan Ziyang, I have the whip in my hand. If you want to whip me with it, you can come and get it yourself. But I can warn you, your father is at home today, and when the time comes, let him know that you came to disturb my reading and writing again. Without your good fruit to eat."

Guan Ziyang put down the hand holding Guan Guiying, and walked towards Guan Zisong step by step. Seeing his fearless appearance, Guan Zisong was not sure what kind of routine Guan Ziyang was.

Guan Ziyang just looked contemptuous, and he didn't pay attention to this big brother who was five or six years older than himself and several heads taller.

"Guan Ziyang, if you take another step forward, my whip will fall!"

Guan Ziyang continued to approach step by step as if he hadn't heard of it.

Guan Zisong swung his arms round and yelled, "You asked for this."

The whip came down with a "wow"...

Guan Guiying screamed "Ah" and covered her eyes in fright...

The whip just slammed on the bluestone floor again.

Guan Ziyang didn't dodge or dodge, because he could see clearly that the whip Guan Zisong was hitting on purpose.

Seeing that Guan Ziyang didn't even blink his eyes when he saw the whip, Guan Zisong lost all confidence.

Seeing that there were still four or five steps before Guan Ziyang was about to walk in front of him, he began to be afraid.

In an instant, Guan Zisong raised his whip again with a vicious look on his face, and beat him down hard.

If the whip hits hard, no matter where it hits the body, there will be bruises for a long time, Guan Ziyang just turned sideways slightly and dodged, the whip only hit the ground again.

Seeing him dodging, Guan Zisong whipped again, Guan Ziyang turned sideways and dodged again, Guan Zisong was in a hurry.

"Crack crackle crackle..."

After waving the whip several times in succession, Guan Ziyang walked forward slowly step by step, but when the whip was about to fall on him, he dodged sideways. The noise was not small, but it didn't even touch Guan Ziyang's clothes.

The 'Guan Family idiot' who has been bullied for many years is extra tough today!
Guan Zisong made a decisive decision, "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" '

But he couldn't lose face, and said tremblingly: "Guan Ziyang, I will let you go today."

Just as he was about to turn around and run away, Guan Ziyang saw his thoughts, stepped forward, grabbed the whip from Guan Zisong's hand, raised his hand, and hit him on the forearm with the whip, Guan Zisong let out a scream, and fell down in response. land.

He never thought that the mouse would bully the cat one day!
In the courtyard of the West Building, Caidie covered his eyes and dared not look at what was happening before him. The three welt marks on Guan Zisong's left arm turned from red to purple, and then from purple to black. face.

Guan Ziyang was the first to be whipped, and he even called Guan Ziyang "little bastard" and "suicide" and so on.

Unexpectedly, today Guan Ziyang is a cruel and merciless master, followed by two whips, now there is no curse words, he just keeps crying.

Seeing that Guan Ziyang wanted to fight again, Guan Zisong finally gave up, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Brother Ziyang, stop beating, stop beating, I apologize, I admit my mistake...you stop beating..."

Guan Zisong was only a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, and for the sake of being a family member, Guan Ziyang did not commit any murderous actions. These few whips could be regarded as revenge for the natives Guan Ziyang and Guan Guiying.

Seeing that Guan Ziyang finally convinced him, he dropped his whip and said, "Okay, hurry up and go complain to your father."

Then he turned around and left with Guan Guiying.
