Song Jiang has not yet ascended Erlong Mountain, and out of the power instinct of bureaucrats and tyrants, he has begun to fight with Chao Gai, the boss of the house, invisibly. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the peasant thought of Chao Gai took Song Jiang as a brother who had died, and he had no precautionary heart, so he naturally would not be an opponent.

However, Gongsun Sheng's main job in Erlongshan was to balance Chao Song's power and status, and effectively control the strength of Erlongshan in accordance with Zhao Yue's plan. As soon as Song Jiang went up the mountain, his strength was very strong, and he invisibly suppressed Chao Gai's influence and authority, and his ability to attract people to win people's hearts was far superior to Chao Gai, and in the future, Song Jiang's cronies and followers must be more.

Gongsun Sheng must seize the time to pull all the heroes and leaders who can be pulled by Chao Gai's side, weaken Song Jiang's authority, and stabilize Chao Gai's position. He can be said to be on the outside, knowing himself and his opponent, seizing the opportunity, pulling away the three brothers Zhang Daneng, and calculating Song Jiang a little.

Song Jiang knew that he was in the game and was an important chess piece that someone had planned to use well, and he knew that there was such an important Taoist leader as Gongsun Sheng in Erlong Mountain, but he had never seen it, he didn't know it at all, he didn't know it, he didn't know it, and he didn't know that this Taoist priest was already staring at him and trying to control him.

Song Jiang's decision to let Zhang Daneng lead the team to Erlong Mountain first was a helpless move that happened for a reason and was completely unexpected, but it was undoubtedly a bad move, revealing the essence of his powerlessness and not being able to really lead his small group, although he explained cleverly in the letter, saying that he had defeated the Zizhou army, and took this opportunity to go back to grab more places, and a lot of property went up the mountain to see the ceremony, and the family and property were inconvenient, so they were handed over to the king of heaven first, but Gongsun Sheng, who had a heart, was keenly aware of Song Jianglu's cowardice from the war process that Zhang Daneng's three brothers said. It can be said that Song Jiang was defeated by Gongsun Sheng in the hands of Gongsun Sheng this time without knowing it, which was contributed to a variety of reasons, and he was not unjustly defeated.

Wu Yong, a military advisor who is good at personnel and has a belly of ghost ideas, also vaguely anticipated the weakness of Song Jiang's imperial weakness, and judged that the heroes brought by Song Jiang, whether they were Chai Jinzhuang, or Shejiaoling and Zizhou, I am afraid that they are not controllable by righteousness.

During the banquet, Gongsun Sheng noticed that Wu Yong frowned slightly, as if he was worried.

The two looked at each other wordlessly, and quietly understood each other's suspicions, and for the first time they had a tacit understanding, and they both smiled.

Wu Yong immediately praised how convenient and how good it was for the three new heroes to live in the temple, showing his sincere welcome. Zhang Daneng, Wang Bin, and Li Yan, who were half drunk, became more and more emotional, excited and happy, and they couldn't wait to hand over their lives to Erlongshan immediately.

Chao Gai is also getting more and more excited. Because of Zhao Yue's favor, his stepping stone fate turned around and became better.

Among the people at the table, only one person was happy and moved on his face, and he secretly frowned in his heart and was anxious for Song Jiang. That's naturally Zheng Hong.

Qin Hui's wife, Sui Mingying, was just a housewife, and it was not suitable for drinking with the heroes of Erlongshan for a welcome banquet, but as the wife of the boss of Shejiaoling and the wife of the fierce general Chao Gai wanted to have, Chao Gai did not neglect her, and specially arranged for the most prestigious woman in the cottage - Bai Sheng and the wives of the doctors to be entertained separately.

And although Zheng Hong is also a woman, she is a serious 800 leader of Shejiaoling, and she can't be treated as a housewife, and she is the poor little widow's righteous sister recognized by Song Jiang, and according to her relationship with Song Jiang and the treatment of the leader, she is also at the table of the three Zhang Daneng brothers. It's just that there is no female leader to accompany the cottage, and it is not too convenient for a group of gentlemen to entertain them, so everyone is polite and not rude, and Zheng Hong will take care of the rest.

Zheng Hong was born to be a scene character, a genius courtesan, not only beautiful as a flower, long-sleeved and good at dancing, good at grasping the mentality of quasi-men, serious on different occasions, not serious, can easily convert according to needs, and the amount of wine is excellent, it belongs to the table generally does not serve the cup, when you need to serve the cup, fifty or sixty degrees of liquor is drunk a pound of seven or eight taels, it will only look more delicate and attractive, put down or drink a table of men she is not drunk and shows the ugly wine country among the heroes.

Her beauty even not close to the female Chao Gai at first sight can not help but be surprised by its beauty and moving, in the welcome banquet of the decent performance and rare women bold and neat but very in line with the female identity of the proportion, undoubtedly won the appreciation of Chao Gai, but also left a deep good impression on the group of heroes, Yin Tai, Yin Chun, Zheng Tianshou such a single even to this little widow has a strong pity and pursuit, possessiveness, Zheng Hong can be said to have achieved the first step of the steady victory in Erlongshan.

But she was secretly proud and watched the three brothers Zhang Daneng easily be taken away by Chao Gai, so she was naturally anxious for her brother-in-law Song Jiang.

She knew very well that among the heroes of Snake Horn Ridge, it was these three reckless men who had strong force but no brains to make the best use of Song Jiang's heart and wanted to be his henchmen.

And she and Song Jiang are a community of interests, and safeguarding Song Jiang's interests is to safeguard her interests, and she is also anxious about her own interests.

Quietly and coldly swept Zhang Daneng, Wang Bin, and Li Yan, who were drunk twice, Zheng Hong scolded in his heart: What are the three melon men, and they dare to mix with the sinister rivers and lakes with this heart?

Afraid that he would be sold to the government for money and reward, they were still vigorously treating that person as a benefactor, thanking others for their loyalty, and thinking about how to follow and repay them. To be able to live to this day is a fate.

It's just that no matter how anxious she is, she can't do anything.

It's not her home turf.

She and Zhang Daneng are just a nodding acquaintance of a cottage leader, and they have no influence on the three of them.

If they want to crack Chao Gai, they will be treated with affection and affection, and they hope to get close to each other and form a close brother with righteousness, and this trick will not be resolved even if Song Jiang is here. Brother Cheng Yishan, you can't help but let the boss get close to the new brother, right?

Under such circumstances, any opposition would be a violation of sentiment, distraction, and ill-intentionedness.

Based on Zheng Hong's understanding of Zhang Daneng and the three of them, as soon as these three stupid melons enter the Baozhu Temple, they will not only be estranged from each other for a long time, but will become closer and closer to each other, and they will be far away from people including Qin Hui.

Song Jiang is good at grasping people's hearts and has a heroic spirit, but in the end, he is a literati, and he can win the respect, admiration and even love of these three brothers, but he can't get along with each other in a truly agreeable and happy nature.

These three people are lost and cannot be used. It only adds strength to Erlong Mountain.

If you can't get it back, let it go. It's not that these three stupid melons can't be successful. Zheng Hong figured it out and put down her mood.

She consciously is good at acting, and she hides her true mood very well, but she doesn't want anyone to stand in a detached position, with a pure-minded monk's vision, she doesn't need to see her Zheng Hong's heart, she doesn't need to see through her disguise and acting, just rely on the extraordinary female nickname of the iron-clawed yin needle jade-faced fox cat, and guess and analyze the insider role that Song Jiang's righteous sister can play in the twists and turns of the Snake Horn Ridge group to join Song Jiang, you can recognize her role and attach importance to and target her.

After the banquet, the three brothers Zhang Daneng were helped to go to their new home in the backyard of the temple to rest, for a long time, they dared to relax and sleep sweetly for the first time.

Chao Gai and Wu Yong were still thinking about the safety of Song Jiang's part, for fear of making a mistake, they drank happily but didn't dare to drink too much, so they dispersed the banquet with the brothers with the intention of drinking, and went busily.

Gongsun Sheng sent his cronies and guards to quietly invite Zheng Hong, who was slowly walking towards his new home, to talk alone.

For this Taoist priest who is the third master of Erlong Mountain, Zheng Hong felt the free and easy demeanor of Taoism, and did not feel how smart and dangerous this person was or the mysterious mystery of the cultivator.

Unexpectedly hearing the invitation, she really couldn't figure out what Gongsun Sheng's purpose was.

Could it be that this Taoist priest is a hypocritical monk who is surprised and greedy for my beauty and has an evil heart?

Zheng Hong is accustomed to thinking that men are lustful in nature and lack resistance to beauty, and feels that her guess may not be unreasonable.

If Gongsun Sheng is really a transcendent all-true Taoist, how could he be a murderous robber and a core leader?

When I went to see Gongsun Sheng in private, it might be troublesome or even dangerous to be a beautiful ownerless woman, but Zheng Hong did not refuse, nodded slightly without even hesitation, and asked the guard to lead the way and quietly go deep into the backyard of the temple.

As the new leader, she can't refuse the call of the three leaders of the cottage.

The three masters are not just high-ranked. It was the deputy village master, one of the masters, and the essence was different from all the other leaders in the lower rows, including the four leaders. So it must be respected.

She also refuses to think she should be vigilant against being violated.

Chao Gai is in this row of houses. Gongsun Sheng's somewhat abnormal movement must attract attention.

If Gongsun Sheng wants to make some demon moths covet her beauty, he will not dare to use violence and coercion to avoid making a fuss and embarrassing people.

These self-proclaimed chivalrous heroes are the most famous and image-oriented.

Zheng Hong was willing to meet Gongsun Sheng in private because she was very curious and wanted to hear what this Taoist priest would say to her.

Entering the residence of the core leader of Erlong Mountain, Zheng Hongyi, the jade-faced fox cat, looked at the decorations and furnishings of Gongsun Sheng's residence, and couldn't help but be disappointed.

Shabby.

It's shabby.

She thought that the leader of the powerful bandit gang had gold, silver, jewelry, and precious ornaments, but all she saw was a table, a few chairs, and nothing else. Tables and chairs are still ordinary materials and styles, rough goods made by ordinary carpenters that are not worth a few big bucks, and the only advantage is that they are thick and strong.

The row of houses in the backyard, including the abbot's residence, are all unified into two rooms, inside and outside, the inside is the bedroom, and the outside is the space for eating, entertaining, and meditating. If there is any difference in the pattern, it is that the abbot's residence is much wider, which shows the special status of the temple leader.

In addition, the residences of the abbot and several other major monks of the temple are covered with thick wooden floors, making it easy to meditate on the ground. Other monks lay bricks

If Gongsun Sheng said that there is any difference between it and the residences of Chao Gai and Wu Yong, it is that the floor is very clean, you need to take off your shoes to enter, and there is a Taoist priest meditating in a corner of the ground.

At this time, Gongsun Sheng is not in the room, the door of the inner room is open, from the outside, the general situation of the inner room can be seen at a glance, it is nothing more than the most common and practical fire kang in the north, and there is a not too small rectangular box on the kang head by the window, which is estimated to be a bedside table for clothes. All that's left is a folded quilt, and then there's no more.

"It's really a monk's and Taoist nest with steep walls and four empty walls." Zheng Hong pursed her lips lightly.

She really doesn't understand, since she doesn't pursue luxury and enjoyment, and likes to be quiet, natural and simple, why should this Gongsun Sheng be a robber leader? With so much money looted from all over the place, could it be that the compassion and generosity of the family members were distributed to the needy families in need?

Thinking of this, Zheng Hong felt funny for some reason, and burst out laughing.

At the same time, I heard someone behind me laughing and groaning as he came in: "It's true that the poor road here is steep and the four walls are steep, but the four are empty, but it may not be." Taoist priests are also human beings and need food and clothing to survive. ”

Zheng Hong turned his back and knew that it was Gongsun Sheng, so he hurriedly restrained his smile, turned around and solemnly greeted Mr. Gongsun.

Gongsun Sheng invited her to sit down, and poured Zheng Hong a cup of hot tea with his own hands.

It turned out that the tea had already been brewed. Gongsun Sheng had been prepared for a long time, and it was not intentionally rude to be rude and lazy not to welcome guests in the house.

A fragrance wafted into Zheng Hong's nose, causing people to feel intoxicated.

Zheng Hong was born in a relatively high local military officer and wealthy family, as beautiful as an elf when she was a child, smart and sensible, very able to please her parents, is the pearl of her parents' delicate palm, is extremely favored by her parents and can even be called pampered, her father likes to teach her to practice martial arts, specially invited a famous local gentleman to teach reading, what to try to pick up the best for her daughter to enjoy, Zheng Hong has a certain insight, just by virtue of this tea fragrance to conclude that this must be a rare treasure in the world.

Entertaining with precious tea leaves shows that this Mr. Gongsun respects me, or does he have other intentions?

Zheng Hong smiled and thanked Mr. Gongsun for his hospitality, but secretly speculated in his heart.

Gongsun Sheng smiled indifferently, looked at Zheng Hong with a clear gaze, and said in his words: "Leader Zheng is really not ordinary, he is knowledgeable. ”

"To tell you the truth, this tea is not only rare, but also made with a peerless secret method, the most fragrant and pleasant, drinking it can make people feel refreshed, and help to think and judge. Even the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty and the traitorous minister Cai Jing, who pursued the most enjoyment, did not have a chance to drink a drop.

It was given to a good friend of mine (Brother Zhao Yue), and when I got it, I gave some tea to Mr. Jia Liang, a military advisor. After drinking it once, Chao Tianwang said that he and Liu Tang and other brothers were rough people, and drinking such good tea was a cow chewing peonies, which was purely a waste of things. There is no want. The Ren Sen brothers, who were born in a wealthy family and were elegant and good at tea, were divided. I don't have much of it, and I don't usually want to drink it. ”

Zheng Hong looked at Gongsun Sheng's eyes, and after listening to these words, he felt that he had thought wrong.

Gongsun Sheng does have the detachment and sobriety of a monk, not coveting beauty, treating each other with such treasures, but I am afraid that it is not just a courtesy to express respect, it should have a deep meaning, but I can't guess what it is about.

She is keenly aware that she is facing a crisis and a major opportunity. Whether it is a blessing or a curse depends on whether you can grasp the key points and proportions with your own mind and vision. (To be continued.) )
