Chapter 197: Song Jiang is recruited
After listening to what the Red Lady and Mu Guiying said, Mu Fang Xuanling immediately understood, and said in a deep voice: "Red Girl, don't you want me to make an introduction for you?" ”
The red lady nodded heavily: "My husband is dedicated to the country and works diligently, but he was beheaded on the streets of Chang'an by the faint king." The only thought of the concubine in this life is to be able to lead the army into Chang'an City and avenge her husband. I hope Mr. Fang can help me with this! ”
Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this? The husband of the red girl was Li Yuan's courtier in the past, and it is inevitable to fight on the battlefield for the king's worries, Your Majesty is merciful, how can you account for this matter? The red girl can rest assured to return to Jiangdu with me! ”
The red lady immediately arched her hand and said, "Then thank you Lord Fang!" ”
After speaking, he turned his head and bowed deeply to Mu Guiying, and said: "The matchmaker thanks the owner of the village for taking care of her in the past, but the revenge of the husband must be avenged, the matchmaker can only leave Mu Kezhai today, and I hope the owner of the village will forgive!" ”
"Sister Hong doesn't have to be like this, you hurry up!" Mu Guiying hurriedly stepped forward to help the red lady and smiled slightly: "When I established Mu Ke Zhai, I said that anyone can come and go as they please, and I, Mu Guiying, will never interfere. What's more, my sister has a deep hatred in the sea of blood, and it is reasonable to go down the mountain today, how can I, Mu Guiying, stop it? ”
"Thank you for your understanding!" The red lady burst into tears when she heard this, arched her hand and said: "The owner of the village, the red lady will say goodbye, and I hope that the owner of the village will cherish it!" ”
Mu Guiying also hugged her fists with both hands, and said with a little reluctance: "Matchmaker, you have to take care of yourself!" ”
"Since Miss Mu and Miss Hong have a deep sisterhood, it is better to go to Jiangdu with this official." Fang Xuanling cautiously proposed: "Miss Mu is strong in martial arts and proficient in the art of war, my majesty has always been thirsty for talent, and he will definitely reuse the girl, and it can also complete the sisterhood of the two girls!" ”
"Thank you Lord Fang for your kindness. It's just that Gui Ying cares about the people of Qingzhou, and Song Jiang has been entrenched in Qingzhou over the years, and his subordinates like Wang Ying don't know how many people have been harmed. Although Gui Ying is weak, she still wants to stay in Qingzhou and save the people of Qingzhou with her own skills! ”
Mu Guiying shook her head and rejected Fang Xuanling's solicitation, smiled slightly, and said: "But if one day the Great Sui soldiers and horses can sweep the Song River and return Qingzhou to peace." Then I, Mu Guiying, will definitely lead the whole village brothers of Mu Kezhai to come to the Great Sui. ”
Fang Xuanling smiled with relief after listening to Mu Guiying's words, and arched his hand and said, "Miss Mu, then we will make up our minds." I hope that in the future, the lower officials can see Miss Mu's heroic appearance under His Majesty's account. ”
Mu Guiying smiled, and also arched his hand and said: "Then Guiying is waiting for the good news of the Great Sui Heavenly Soldiers to level the Song River in Mu Kezhai!" ”
。。。。。。。。。。
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: Qingzhou righteous man Song Jiang is loyal to the country, raise volunteers to level the Qingzhou Liukou, Mingde meritorious, I am very relieved. He was appointed as the Governor of Hebei Province and the General of Zuo Wuwei, the prince Shaobao, the pillar of the country, and the prince of Liang. ”
In the Qi County Council Hall, Qin Hui, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, finished reading out Li Yuan's holy decree, and handed the holy decree to Song Jiang with a smile: "Liang Guogong, the lower official is here to congratulate you!" ”
Because the strength of the Sui Dynasty became stronger and stronger, in order to contain the development of the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan adopted the suggestion of the crown prince Li Jiancheng and sent a special envoy to recruit bandits in Hebei and the Central Plains to induce them to attack the Central Plains and disrupt Yang Gao's plan to stabilize the people's livelihood in the Central Plains.
As for Qin Hui, the identity he implanted when he was indiscriminately entered was a subordinate official of the East Palace under Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng saw that he was resourceful and a rare talent, so he recommended him to serve as the special envoy of this recruitment, wanting him to take the opportunity to make some contributions so that he could be promoted.
Song Jiang took the holy decree with a smile and said with a smile on his face: "Where is it?" The lower officials are just a few foreign vassals, where can they compare to Lord Qin, and in the future, the lower officials will rely on Lord Qin more! ”
Qin Hui bowed slightly, this is a general who understands people's feelings and sophistication, unlike other bandits who were recruited, with a simple mind and developed limbs. If this person can be drawn into the prince's camp, it will definitely make up for the prince's shortcomings in military power.
Qin Hui then put down the literati's shelf, pretended to be very enthusiastic, and held Song Jiang's hands and said, "What did General Song say?" We are all working for the Son of Heaven, and we should help each other. ”
Song Jiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately bowed his hand and thanked him: "Then Song Jiang will thank Lord Qin a lot." ”
Qin Hui nodded slightly, and was about to introduce the topic to the crown prince Li Jiancheng, but saw several generals under Song Jiang rushing into the meeting hall in a hurry, and Li Kui, who was tall and dark-skinned, shouted: "Brother, something happened." Wang Ying's brothers were killed in Zhangqiu County! ”
"What?" Song Jiang was suddenly shocked, grabbed Li Kui and said, "What are you talking about, Brother Wang Ying is gone?" ”
"Yes, brother!"
Li Kui nodded heavily: "I heard from the soldiers who came back from Zhangqiu County that it was Mu Guiying's cheap woman and a caravan that killed Wang Ying's brother. ”
"It's this woman again!" Song Jiang smashed a fist on the table with hatred, gritted his teeth and said, "Is this woman going to fight with me Song Jiang endlessly?" ”
Li Kui immediately asked for battle and said: "Brother, you allocate 500 elite soldiers to me Tieniu, and I promise to break through Mu Kezhai and cut off Mu Guiying's head to commemorate Wang Ying's brothers." ”
"Iron Bull Hugh is talking nonsense!"
Wu Yong, the military advisor, scolded angrily, and said to Song Jiang: "Brother Hugh listened to Tie Niu's nonsense, Mu Kezhai is in dangerous terrain, although Mu Guiying is a woman, but she is well versed in the art of war, not to mention 500 elite soldiers, even 50,000 horses may not be able to take it." Moreover, I have carefully questioned the soldiers from Zhangqiu County, and it was not Mu Guiying who killed Wang Ying's brothers, but the guards in that caravan. ”
Song Jiang asked with some surprise, "What caravan's guards have such great ability to kill Brother Wang Ying?" ”
Wu Yong smiled bitterly: "This is also what surprised me the most, we have been in black and white for many years, and the caravans with a little fame have dealt with us." But this caravan is unheard of, and according to the soldiers who escaped, those guards are all strong in martial arts, not like the guards of ordinary caravans at all, but more like soldiers! ”
Song Jiang waved his hand hatefully and shouted angrily: "No matter what kind of caravan they are, what is the origin? But if you dare to kill my brothers, you will chase them to the ends of the earth, and I will find them out! ”
Qin Hui, who had been listening carefully to the conversation between Song Jiang and Wu Yong on the side, suddenly sneered and said, "General Song, maybe the lower officials know the origin of this caravan!" ”
