452,Dulong Mountain, Pingding (2)
Zhu Long raised his head and looked around, only to see that Zheng Linfeng and the generals of the Heavenly Dao Army were all looking at him coldly. Luan Tingyu bowed his head and was speechless, and he had no idea. Zhu Hu was escorted by several sergeants, looking at him blankly and fearfully with eyes for help.
"Zhu Gongzi? Please. Zheng Fei smiled and patiently urged again, but his smile was no different from a fierce beast with a bloody mouth open in Zhu Long's eyes, making him feel like falling into an ice cellar, and his whole body was cold!
Zhu Long knows very well that he has to write this letter himself, and he has to write it if he doesn't write it, otherwise he can't say that he is Zhu Hu today, and even he can't guarantee that he can get out of this room alive! He picked up the pen with a slightly trembling hand with difficulty, breathed a long sigh of relief, and was just about to put down the pen but looked up at Zheng Fei,
"Commander, can I ask a few more questions?"
"Yes."
"What is the difference between us descending and not descending?"
"Descend, as long as you are honest and honest, I will keep you safe for a lifetime. If I don't fall, in less than half a month, I will set foot on Dulong Mountain! ”
Zhu Long's heart trembled violently, he knew that Zheng Fei didn't say big things, with the current comparison of the strength of the two sides, the Heavenly Dao Army did have the capital to say such big things,
"But even if I write a letter, I am no longer in the mountains after all, and the people of the mountain village will not listen to me, ...... if that really happens, we ......?".
"That's not something you need to take care of, as long as you're obedient, I'll keep you fine!"
"...... our family?"
"Although we have killed a lot of corrupt officials and bullies, they all deserve it, as for their families, as long as they have not done evil things and can ensure that they abide by the law, they will not be affected in any way, and our Heavenly Dao Army will never cause trouble to their families and joint sitting, you can rest assured of this."
Zhu Long gritted his teeth when he heard this, and finally put pen to paper, and finished writing the letter after a while.
Wu Yong stepped forward to pick it up, nodded and handed him over to Zheng Fei, Zheng Fei looked at it and nodded with satisfaction, put the letter away and waved his hand to the sergeants, and they immediately let go of Zhu Hu,
Zheng Fei then ordered, "Come on, please Zhu Long and Zhu Hu go down, serve well, don't slack off!" ”
Someone stepped forward to make a gesture of invitation to Zhu Long and Zhu Hu, Zhu Long and Zhu Hu followed out dejectedly, Luan Tingyu also followed behind, and just a few steps away, he heard Zheng Fei's voice suddenly come from behind him,
"Brother Luan, please stay."
Zhu Long and Luan Tingyu stopped at the same time, Luan Tingyu's heart jumped, and he first looked at Zhu Long,
I saw that Zhu Long was also looking at himself in surprise, and the suspicion in his eyes flashed, especially Zhu Hu, his eyes were full of anger, and their gaze made Luan Tingyu very uncomfortable, he was just about to speak, but Zhu Long immediately withdrew that gaze, lowered his head and said softly and quickly, "Please Brother Luan, for the sake of many years of love, to ensure the safety of my family!" ”
After that, Zhu Long hugged his fist towards Luan Tingyu, and then he and Zhu Hu followed out of the lobby again,
Luan Tingyu looked at Zhu Long's back in a daze, and sighed deeply .......

Since Zhulong and his entourage went to Yunzhou, but there was no news back for three consecutive days, and Zhujiazhuang was anxious up and down.
And in the past few days, Hujiazhuang and Li Jiazhuang also learned about Zhu Hu's attack on Liangshanbo's welcoming team, Zhu Long can investigate who Zhu Hu attacked, Hujiazhuang and Li Jiazhuang are not vegetarians, they also quickly learned through various channels that Zhu Hu that troublemaker this time provoked Liang Shanbo that big man who can't be provoked, both families were also surprised, but for such a big thing happened but did not get any news from Zhujiazhuang, Hujiazhuang and Li Jiazhuang thought about it and understood Zhujiazhuang's small abacus, They are all angry at Zhujiazhuang!
On the fourth day when Zhujiazhuang was about to send someone to Yunzhou City to inquire about the news of Zhu Long and others, a person suddenly returned to Zhujiazhuang, this person was none other than the head of Zhujiazhuang, Luan Tingyu, who was ordered to protect Zhulong and Zhuhu this time, but his face was full of exhaustion.
Everyone urgently asked Luan Tingyu what happened, why didn't the eldest son and the second son come back together?
Luan Tingyu then said a news that shocked everyone, the second son caused too much trouble this time, annoying Liang Shanbo, Liang Shanbo has detained the two sons, and he will spare the lives of the two sons if he wishes Jiazhuang to hand over the territory and surrender of weapons! He was imprisoned by Liang Shanbo for a few days, and was released by Liang Shanbo to deliver the letter at the intercession of the eldest prince.
As he spoke, Luan Tingyu took out a letter and said that this was written by the eldest prince himself.
In the letter, Zhu Long asked Zhujiazhuang to agree to all the requirements of Liang Shanbo, and said that from what he saw when he saw Liang Shanbo's current strength, it was not Zhujiazhuang, but the combined forces of the three villages of Dulong Mountain were not the opponents of Liang Shanbo, and resisting them would only be to hit the stone with an egg, increasing unnecessary casualties. Liang Shanbo has also made a promise that as long as Zhujiazhuang is willing to surrender, he can ensure the safety of Zhujiazhuang. In order to wish the lives and safety of the upper and lower levels of Zhujiazhuang, he asked Zhujiazhuang to surrender immediately in the name of the eldest prince of Zhujiazhuang!
The people of Zhujiazhuang were stunned, no wonder the eldest prince and the second prince did not have any news for a long time, it turned out that they were detained by Liangshanbo, everyone had not made up their minds, and soon, another news that made the entire Dulong Mountain fall into extreme shock followed, at the bottom of the mountain, Liangshanbo suddenly pressed on the army without the slightest warning, and surrounded Dulong Mountain in four ways, southeast, northwest, and west, and saw that the mountain was full of Liangshan troops wearing black military uniforms, not to mention thirty or forty thousand people!
Zhujiazhuang then fell into a panic, everyone hurriedly convened an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures, because the old lady Zhu Chaofeng is very old, and his health is not very good, everyone dare not tell him the news, so the only person who is currently staying in Zhujiazhuang is the third son Zhu Biao, who speaks the most.
The people of Zhujiazhuang immediately divided into two factions, one was the cronies and subordinates of the eldest prince Zhu Long and Zhu Hu, led by Luan Tingyu, who wanted to surrender to save the lives of the two princes.
The other faction is Zhu Biao, who advocates full resistance and resolutely refuses to surrender!
As the younger brother of Zhu Long and Zhu Hu, why did Zhu Biao disregard the safety of Zhu Long and Zhu Hu so much?
It turned out that although Zhu Biao was the youngest of the three heroes of the Zhu family, his ambition was the largest of the three.
Zhu Jiazhuang's wealth is great, Zhu Biao has long wanted to get involved in the patriarch's throne, but unfortunately he is the third, and the eldest brother Zhu Long is shrewd and capable, and the second brother Zhu Hu is also a firm supporter of Zhu Long, all the affairs of the Zhu family are always firmly in the hands of Zhu Long, and Zhu Biao has no chance at all.
Zhu Biao is no worse than Zhu Long, and he is often resentful because of this, but he is not stupid, he knows that he is not Zhu Long's opponent, so he wisely chose the road of forbearance, he showed that he was happy and sincere to his eldest brother Zhu Long, but secretly developed his own power behind his back, and he also fought with Zhu Long in everything to fight secretly, just take Zhu Chaofeng's plan to marry and form an alliance with Hujiazhuang a few years ago.
Zhu Chaofeng's intention was originally to let Zhu Long marry Hu Sanniang, the beautiful lady of Hujiazhuang, but this matter was learned by Zhu Biao in advance, Zhu Biao has been coveting Hu Sanniang for a long time, and also wants to compete with Zhu Long, so he went to beg his mother who loves him the most to say that he has fallen in love with Hu Sanniang, and begged his mother to talk to his father and send someone to propose.
Of course I wish my aunt to be happy, as soon as I told Zhu Taigong, Zhu Taigong thought that they were all his own sons, which one to marry was different, since the third child took the initiative to make a request, then the third child!
Zhu Chaofeng changed his mind and went to Hujiazhuang for Zhu Biao to propose marriage, just like that, Zhu Long was robbed of a marriage by Zhu Biao without knowing it, and there are many things like this.
It turned out that although Zhu Long and others were not optimistic about Liang Shanbo, they thought that the imperial court would send someone to exterminate Liang Shanbo sooner or later, but they still chose the most cautious and conservative path, that is, although they pretended to surrender to Liang Shanbo, they did not get any contact with the imperial court, lest the matter be revealed and cause trouble.
Zhu Long is afraid, but Zhu Biao is not afraid!
Zhu Biao saw that this was not a great opportunity? Since I am the youngest in Zhujiazhuang and have no chance to become the patriarch, then I can take this opportunity to suppress bandits, make contributions, and become an official of the imperial court, right? The outside world is very big and exciting, and when I mix well in the future and become a big official and general, maybe I won't be able to look down on this little Zhujiazhuang!
Zhu Biao said that he would do it, so he carried Zhu Long and Zhujiazhuang up and down, and secretly made contact with the imperial army surrounding Jingxi Road......
