Chapter Twenty-Three: What is Shiliang?
The lights in the hall of the county government in Kaocheng did not go out all night, Song Jiang sat on the ground in a restaurant outside the county government, looking at the county government from afar, a black face sank like water, Li Jinyi came over and said, "Third brother, are you worried about the ...... of the nine kings?" ”
Song Jiang said softly: "Brother Xian, there are worries, but I know that the Nine Kings will never disagree with our proposal, and now in troubled times, when our generals are using their lives, the Nine Kings will not kill us, as long as this move is successful, then you and my brother will be crowned Marquis is just a matter of time." ”
Li Jinyi said gratefully: "The younger brother knows that the elder brother is to find a way out for our brother, so he took such an adventure, if the elder brother is useful to the younger brother, as long as the elder brother speaks, the water and the fire will be in the fire, and the younger brother will move forward." ”
Song Jiang shook his head and said: "It's okay else, you don't know Guan Qiao here, it should be fine in the future, if one day the Nine Kings want to destroy this mouth, my brother will not hesitate to die, so as not to affect others, and then my unsuccessful brother will be handed over to the virtuous brother." ”
Although Li Jinyi didn't know the Guan Qiao of the letters here, he also knew that Song Jiang was meddling in the ownership of the throne, and since ancient times, as long as he was a military general, most of them had no good end, and Song Jiang at this time, it can be said that he had gambled on his life, and he said immediately: "Third brother, don't worry, everything has a younger brother." ”
Song Jiang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Now I'm sending Wang Yuan there, I don't know if he can persuade He Shiliang." ”
At this time, Wang Yuan was also setting up wine in the camp, Wang Yi was accompanied, and He Shiliang was pushing a cup and drinking it, He Shiliang was anxious in his conscience, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, he said: "Brother Wang, what do you mean?" But let me know clearly, His Royal Highness King Xin is still waiting in my village. ”
Wang Yuan put down the wine glass, looked at He Shiliang with a smile and said, "There is no objection to being a brother, but ...... This king of faith has no name, and the people of the world do not know him, if you act according to the edict you brought, I am afraid that the people of the world will not accept it. ”
He Shiliang looked at Wang Yuan in surprise, his eyes gradually turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Prince, are you going to violate the edict?" ”
Wang Yi sneered and said, "Brother He, it seems that you can't break the edict, right?" Whether your edict was written by the emperor, who knows? There are not a few people in the world who learn to write the emperor's thin gold characters, how can it be proved that your one is true? ”
He Shiliang threw his cup on the ground, got up and said, "Wang Yuan! Wang Yi, you two don't want to be weird, but you said, did you get the benefits of King Nakang and want to disobey the emperor's edict and go to King Nakang instead? ”
Wang Yuan smiled mildly: "Brother He, don't be so excited, although King Kang did not have an edict, but he was appointed as the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, and led the army of the King of Zhuqin to resist Hu Lu, which is expected by everyone, that Zhang Bangchang was awarded the pseudo-emperor, heard the name of the nine kings, and looked at the wind to surrender, and replaced His Royal Highness the King of Letters, could he have such a reputation?" I'm afraid that someone will help Zhang Bangchang resist King Qin's army, right? ”
He Shiliang pointed at Wang Yuan hatefully and said, "Wang Jidao! I didn't expect you to be such a person! After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but when he arrived at the tent door, the curtain was raised, and a general flashed in, pressing the sword with his palm, looking at He Shiliang with a smile, and said, "What, are you going to leave just now?" ”
He Shiliang took a step back, looked at the person who came, and said, "Fu Liang! Then he looked back at Wang Yuan and said, "Okay, Wang Jidao, you have already planned it, right?" Then you're going to kill me! ”
Wang Yuan got up, walked to He Shiliang's side, and said: "Brother He Xian, don't you be like this, we are also for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, we have to do it as a last resort, you are He Xiang, you must not mistake yourself, otherwise Lord He's loyalty will not be wasted." ”
He Shiliang saw that Wang Yi was also surrounded, and the three of them finished the glyph to surround him in the middle, but they couldn't get out, and couldn't help but shout angrily: "You don't have to say it, King Xin can escape from the golden camp and kill Yan Zongyin, it means that he is not a mortal, if not, the emperor will not write this edict to him, if you can have these, I will recognize him as the true son of heaven, no matter what you say, I He Shiliang will never change!" ”
Wang Yuan, Wang Yi, and Fu Liang glanced at each other, and then Fu Liang said: "I heard that Brother He Shiliang seduced the women of the Liang family in Xianjing Prison, and escaped from He Xiang...... ”
He Shiliang's face became ugly, and Wang Yi said again: "It seems that after Brother He joined He Xiangmen, he recognized He Xiang as his father, and in order to conceal his life experience, he secretly forced the widowed mother in the family to remarry ......." ”
"Shut up!" He Shiliang roared, pointed at Fu Liang and Wang Yi and said hatefully: "You guys...... You guys are so vicious! ”
Wang Yuan said lightly: "Brother He didn't do it, and we can't find these things, if these things are publicized, will Brother He still have the face to be an official in the court?" ”
He Shiliang gritted his teeth and said: "I don't believe that on this day of hatred of the country and family, there will be people who care about this!" ”
Wang Yuan said coldly: "Maybe there is, maybe not, so do you want to try it?" I'm afraid that when the time comes, the first person to abandon you first is none other than the king of faith you protect, right? After all, the Great Song Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and people like you can't stand in the court, if the ministers oppose it, do you want to believe that the king is fighting against the ministers for you, or for the sake of the ministers, and abandon you? ”
He Shiliang's face was like earth, and he sat down down, the great Song Wenchen was powerful, how could he not know that if these things that had a bad reputation were publicized, not to mention being an official, it would be difficult for him to be a man.
Wang Yuan said again: "The Nine Kings have already promised you to become a civil official, and you will be the scrivener of the Nine Kings, what connections do you have, plus the identity of the Son of Heaven's close ministers, are you afraid that you will not be able to go to the court to worship the prime minister?" Why make a mistake. ”
He Shiliang couldn't help but be moved when he heard this, but he was still sitting there silent, Wang Yi said again: "He Shiliang, you don't have to pretend, none of us know who, I only give you one chance here, if you continue to make mistakes like this, then you just go, see if we have three roads of men and horses, tens of thousands of soldiers, can we deal with your little Zhuangzi!" ”
He Shiliang laughed miserably, just as Wang Yi said, once they got angry, they ran to Hejiazhuang and put a fire, as long as they said that it was a golden person, or even a bandit, who could hold it, and sighed at the moment, and then bowed to Wang Yuan with trembling hands: "Brother Wang, little brother...... Served! ”
Wang Yuan laughed, then pulled He Shiliang up and said, "Come, come, come; Even so, we were brothers, but we sat down and spoke. At the same time, he gave Wang Yi a look, and Fu Liang carried He Shiliang to the tent to sit down again, but Wang Yi went outside the tent and called a cronie and said: "You go to Chen Liu, send a message to Song An, and say that everything is going well!" The soldier answered the promise and hurried out of the camp.
When the fifth watch of the city was examined, the lights of the county government suddenly went out, Song Jiang jumped up, came down from the upper floor, hurried to the front of the county yamen, and stood there respectfully, about a quarter of an hour later, the small door of the county government opened, Wang Boyan walked out, took a letter and threw it to Song Jiang, and then handed over a palm-sized blood jade Ruyi, and said: "You have read this letter carefully, and then go to act, the nine kings will rush to Chenliu tomorrow, and lead the army to counterattack Tokyo, but please Song Anfu as the vanguard, and hope that the Song vanguard will move forward." ”
Song Jiang knelt down in front of the county office, bowed his head three times, and said in a deep voice: "Minister; Song Jiang took the order! ”
