Zheng Tai, a native of Zhangzhou, Fujian Road, was originally a seaside fisherman in Zhangzhou, who made a living by fishing and hunting, and later sold illicit salt, and was arrested by the government, so that he fell into the grass.

Although Zheng Tai is five big and three thick, and his appearance is extremely vicious, he is a careful person, and it can be said that he is as careful as a hair.

Although Zheng Tai is a fisherman, he once went to a private school for a year, and he has read some books and understands some truths.

Zheng Tai understands that occupying the mountain as the king and the grass as the coward is not a long-term solution, and sooner or later he will be exterminated by the government.

The arm can never twist the thigh, and the thief will never be able to fight the official!

Therefore, Zheng Tai has been seeking the opportunity to be recruited by the government.

In the Song Dynasty, it was not uncommon for thieves to be recruited by the government, but it was more common, and there were many generals and soldiers in the Great Song Army who were recruited by thieves.

But even so, it is not easy for Zheng Tai and others to be recruited by the government, and they need the imperial court, and even the emperor's decree to do this, so Zheng Tai secretly sneaked into the Kaifeng Mansion in Song Tokyo, the purpose is to find an opportunity or find a way to be recruited by the imperial court. Unexpectedly, Zheng Tai did not find a way, but he happened to encounter Li Sanjian's revenge for the people and the death of Zhao Xin with a cane, and at the same time, Zheng Tai saw Li Sanjian's execution with his own eyes outside the Xuande Gate, and was deeply impressed by Li Sanjian, of course, he recognized Li Sanjian at a glance today.

Isn't that the best time to recruit security? Zheng Tai said secretly in his heart.

"What do you want?" After Li Sanjian knew the general situation of Zheng Tai, he looked at Zheng Tai and asked.

"The small ones don't ask for anything else, they just want to be able to saddle up before and after the horses under the account of Li Daguan, so as to follow the work of dogs and horses." Zheng Tai explained the meaning straight to the point, and then knelt down and kowtowed to Li Sanjian three times.

"Boss!" After Zheng Tai explained his intention to surrender to the government, Li Sanjian had not yet expressed his position, and one of Zheng Tai's leaders said to him: "We attacked and killed him before, and he and his people also killed many of my brothers and others, so it is not appropriate for the leader to do this, right?" Why don't we kill this dog official, exchange his head for some money and food, and continue to live a free life that we wait. ”

"Oh? This is very good, in fact, this person is not very pleasing to the eye, but a treacherous person. Zheng Tai said after slowly getting up from the ground.

"Click!" After Zheng Tai got up from the ground, he suddenly lifted the big ring knife, and then with lightning speed, he swung the knife to cut off the bandit leader who advised him.

Things changed suddenly, and the scene suddenly became bloody, which not only frightened the bandits, but also scared Li Sanjian so much that he put the sword of King Wu, which had been sheathed, on his chest.

The leader's severed upper body was not dead for a while, struggling and staring at Zheng Tai with a twist.

Zheng Tai then pointed at the remaining thieves with a bloody big ring knife and shouted, "Who is Li Daguan?" The world-famous Qing officials, the righteous officials, and the Qingtian lord who is the master of the people, we are waiting for the account of Li Daguan, can we still succumb to me? Do you want to do it or not? ”

The purpose of Zheng Tai's move is that in addition to showing his heart to Li Sanjian, the leader who was cut into two sections disagrees with Zheng Tai on weekdays and secretly plots to seize the position of its leader, so Zheng Tai took the opportunity to get rid of him today.

"We want to follow the leader!" In front of the bloody big ring knife, in front of the corpse that was broken in two on the ground, all the thieves knelt down together and said.

"Wait for the fallacy!" Zheng Tai shook his head when he heard this: "It's not from me, but from Li Daguan." ”

"We are willing to obey Li Daguan!" When all the thieves heard this, they bowed to Li Sanjian together.

"The little one begs the big officials to take it in!" Zheng Tai then threw the big ring knife aside, but he didn't throw it far, he could retrieve it at any time, knelt down on one knee, clasped his hands into fists and said to Li Sanjian: "The small sincere heart, heaven and earth can be expressed, I hope that Li Daguan will take me in, the small ones will definitely be before and after the saddle, only the orders of the big officials are obeyed!" ”

"Good, good!" Li Sanjian then returned the sword of King Wu into the sheath, helped Zheng Tai with both hands, and said to the thieves with a smile: "It is the luck of Quanzhou, the luck of the people, the luck of the officials, and the luck of the court to be able to wake up and rein in the precipice!" Luckily! This official will definitely report this matter to the court, and you will wait for the good news. ”

Li Sanjian's words were ambiguous, neither saying that he agreed nor disagreed, and at the same time threw the matter to the imperial court.

If the imperial court does not allow Zhao'an to be exterminated, then Li Sanjian can be said to have nothing to do with himself, but the order of the imperial court, and with this as an excuse, he can completely get rid of himself...

It is said that recruiting thieves is a big deal, how can Li Sanjian, the governor who has not yet taken office, decide? It really needs to be played, and it will be judged by the imperial court.

If he takes the initiative to recruit thieves, he is almost guilty of rebellion, Li Sanjian has been the magistrate and judge of the Kaifeng Prefecture of the Song Dynasty for more than half a year, how can he not know the law of the Great Song Dynasty?

"Thank you, Mr. Li!" After all, Zheng Tai has only been to private school for a year and has only read a few books, how did he know that Li Sanjian had something to say, and there were so many twists and turns in his words, so he thanked him happily.

"No need to be polite!" Li Sanjian said to Zheng Tai with a smile: "So how about you send me to Hui'an County?" ”

The time has been delayed for too long, Li Sanjian secretly said in his heart, at this time, he should rush to Hui'an County immediately, and then go to Quanzhou after a short rest.

"Little Leader!" Zheng Tai responded, then turned his head and left and instructed his subordinates: "Go and cut some bamboo, make a soft chair with a sliding pole, no, make two, and send Li Daguan and his wife to Hui'an County." ”

"I... You... I'm not... At this time, Yaoyao, who had been staying by Li Sanjian's side, turned red all of a sudden, and stammered. Let's take a book

Li Sanjian laughed, reached out to take Yaoyao's somewhat cold little hand, and after pinching her palm, he smiled at Zheng Tai and said, "Thank you so much." ”

So Zheng Tai's men cut some bamboo, and soon made two pairs of sliding rods, and they didn't know where to find some cotton cloth and spread it

On top of the seats, it looks unusually comfortable.

Then Li Sanjian and Yaoyao were carried by the thieves towards the county seat of Hui'an County.

This is the second time Li Sanjian has enjoyed the treatment of sliding rods.

The first time was when Li Sanjian was tied to Guizhou and even the mountains, Li Sanjian coerced and even the mountain thieves, so he sat on the soft chair of the sliding rod.

And this time, Li Sanjian's sliding rod was carried to Hui'an County by the thieves willingly, so Li Sanjian was half-lying in the sliding rod and groaned comfortably.

"What do you command, great official?" Zheng Tai saw that Li Sanjian had moved, and hurriedly ran to Li Sanjian and asked.

"Oh... It's okay. Li Sanjian then seemed to ask casually: "Why did Leader Zheng suddenly come to Meiyu Village with Yaxing?" ”

"This..." Zheng Tai replied embarrassedly when he heard this: "The cottage is short of food, and at this time someone said that there is... It is said that the big officials are harming the villagers in Meiyu Village, and they want us to attack and kill the big officials, and if it happens, they will allocate some food and salary to me and others. ”

"Oh? Looks like my head is still more valuable, right? Li Sanjian smiled when he heard this: "Leader Zheng, how much food do you think my head can be exchanged for?" ”

"The big official laughed... Zheng Tai smiled awkwardly: "The little ones are confused, and the small ones make people take down this person's whole family." ”

Li Sanjian nodded with satisfaction when he heard this: "This person's surname is Zhong Mingcheng, right?" Originally the Lizheng of Meiyu Village? ”

"The great official is exactly this person." Zheng Tai replied.

Li Sanjian nodded again when he heard this, and then glanced at Yaoyao, who was sitting on the sliding pole, cramped and uneasy.

Where has Yaoyao been treated like this since she was born? Being hugged and carried away... Therefore, it is extremely cramped and uneasy, and I really want to jump off the slide pole and walk on my own, so that it is much more relaxed.

Li Sanjian smiled and shook Yaoyao's sweaty palm again.

Li Sanjian thought about it later, and his party was suddenly attacked in Meiyu Village, and the problem was in Zhongcheng, who was in the original Li Li of Meiyu Village.

Things are just as Li Sanjian expected, after Li Sanjian dismissed Zhong Chengchengdi, he was unwilling, coupled with indignation, he actually colluded with the bandits and wanted to take the lives of Li Sanjian and others, even if someone pursues this matter in the future, he will blame the bandits.

What makes Li Sanjian incomprehensible is that Zhong Cheng is so bold?

You must know that according to the Song law, killing an official is tantamount to rebellion, for the great crime of rebellion, the first crime of the "Ten Evils", and the crime of unforgiveness, the so-called "Ten Evils" is not forgiven.

And Zhong Cheng was originally the Li Zheng of Meiyu Village, and he was also an official of the government.

Since Zhong Cheng was once the head of Meiyu Village in Hui'an County, then he is Li Sanjian's subordinate, and attacking and killing his chief with his subordinate is the same as the nature of a slave and maid attacking and killing his master, and it is also one of the "ten evils", which is called "evil rebellion", and it is also a heinous crime.

Any of the above charges can make Zhong Cheng fall into the scourge of raiding his family and destroying his family, and the lightest is also the beheading of the party, and the fate of his family with 3,000 miles cannot be pardoned.

Could it be that he really doesn't know the laws of the Great Song Dynasty? Li Sanjian secretly wondered in his heart.

What Li Sanjian didn't expect was that Zhong Cheng was indeed like this, he really didn't know what the Great Song Dynasty Law Order was, and at the same time, he was used to being the king and hegemon in the remote place of Meiyu Village, Hui'an County, Quanzhou.

Zhong Cheng coveted Yaoyao's beauty, he was salivating, and when he was about to get started, he was interrupted by Li Sanjian, so how could Zhong Cheng not hate Li Sanjian to the core? So he took risks and wanted to take the lives of Li Sanjian and others.

It's a pity that ... What Zhong Cheng never expected was that more than 100 people besieged Li Sanjian and the other four, but they ran away, and what Zhong Cheng didn't expect was that Zheng Tai actually threw himself under Li Sanjian's account.

In the end, what Zhong Cheng didn't expect was that Yaoyao, who he thought about day and night, was with Li Sanjian affectionately at this time...

If Zhong Cheng learns about this, he will definitely be so angry that he vomits blood and dies...

"There's a big bug up there..." At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in front, and one of Zheng Tai's subordinates reported.

"Big bugs? I'm going to take a look. Zheng Tai said when he heard this.
