Chapter 1131 Maverick Section, Lin Ren Joins the Gang
Xiao Tang listened to the Lin Ren Lin Jiejie in front of him, who was secretly thoughtful at that time and saved the life of Chai Jin, who was almost killed by Gao Lian, and he could probably be sure that this person was also a person who could recruit Juyi.
Lin Ren's name really does not have a word of benevolence, although there are also many characters in the Water Margin who are prison officials, but in the original work, it seems that Cai Fu and Cai Qing brothers are willing to take care of Lu Junyi in prison, but also because they were coerced and lured by Liang Shan, and at the same time, Liang Shijie was afraid that Liang Shan was powerful, so he assigned Cai Fu to take care of it, and it was in line with Cai Fu's mind for fear of losing his life and suspending his education; After Song Jiang was drunk in Xunyang Building, Dai Zong's first reaction was to persuade Song Jiang to go crazy, and then said that he went to Bianliang, Tokyo to make some personal relationships, instead of taking the initiative to unite with Liang Shanbo to fake and rescue Song Jiang; Yang Xiong once rescued Du Xing, a grimace who accidentally injured someone's life, but he only did his best to defend it, and did not escape from the criminals...... These former prison guards are willing to help those in distress for the sake of profit or righteousness, but they are also within their own capabilities, but when they want to set up their identities and lives, they still can't help but hesitate and make a decision.
However, Lin Ren's rescue of Chai Jin was regarded as a crime against the wind, when Gao Lian wanted to lynch Chai Jin, Lin Ren first shirked Chai Jin's "illness is eight points, you don't have to do it", and later Gao Lian urged Chai Jin's mind to harm Chai Jin's life, but Lin Ren lied that Chai Jin was dead, and hid him in a dry well behind the official prison. All of this is also done under Gao Lian's nose, if Gao Lian is suspicious in his heart, only a little inquiry, and learns that his subordinate officials are secretly doing tricks, Lin Ren is only for the sake of the fact that they have never had a friendship with each other, all because of their respect for Chai Jin is a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes and acted righteously, but it is very likely that he lost his official body and life in vain.
After thinking about it in his heart, Xiao Tang said to Lin Ren again: "Lin Jie-level Juren is righteous, and you secretly helped me before, so I taught Gao Lian that the guy thought that the Chai Jin brothers were dead and did not harm them in secret, and it was Lin Jie's level who was also involved in the sea of blood, so he taught my brothers in the village to rescue the Chai Jin brothers out of the city, and we naturally have to repay them for their great kindness...... It's just that Lin Jie-level dared to take risks, and he took care of the lives of his brothers under Gao Lian's nose, but he really didn't worry about his own safety? ”
Lin Ren paused when he saw this, then his face was stunned, he sighed, and said: "I have been in the official gate for a long time, and I have seen a lot of pickled things. Let's say that among the previous prefects of the Gaotang Prefecture, Gao Lian is considered to have done evil, but the previous prefects also had many law enforcement perverts, and there were many innocent people who were imprisoned in the state government's prisons.
I know that it is Yin Tianxi who covets the property of the uncle of the Chai Daguan clan, and he is cheap and framing, and the Chai Daguan is also an innocent person, and although he has been lucky enough to save some wronged people, but in the end, people are soft-spoken, and the people say that I am a prison section with some authority, but in fact, I am just a prison official who has no right to intervene in the judicial trial, and he is also a prison official who allows the prefect to pinch and flatten, and the leader of the whole country must also know what a chaotic place the prisons and courtyards under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty are...... I just don't want to have a loss of conscience, and try my best to rescue some people who are unjust, so I can teach them to be at ease for a while. ”
Listening to Lin Ren's honesty with himself, Xiao Tang also heard that he had a scale in his heart, although he did not completely follow the royal law, but whenever he could do it, he also tried his best to be impartial and worthy of his heart.
Xiao Tang naturally also made up his mind to recruit Lin Ren to join the gang, so he said: "Lin Jie, now that Brother Chai Jin has sat in the top position in my cottage, after the sound comes out, it is inevitable that no one in Gaotang Prefecture will suspect your behavior as a private official and prisoner. If you don't give up, I will also ask Lin Jiejie to go to the cottage to gather righteousness with my brothers and others, but I don't know what to do? ”
"It is true that I have a secret relationship with the heroes of Guizhai to save the lives of Chai Daguan, if someone accuses me of fornicating with the green forest grass because of this matter, it is not a ...... of arranging and planting."
Lin Ren smiled self-deprecatingly, then turned his head, and then looked at Xiao Tang, and said meaningfully: "The big boss, when he acts, he also believes that people are doing it, and the sky is watching. Although he also cares about righteousness, it is also incumbent on him to rescue the good men in distress in the rivers and lakes in a timely manner, but most of the strong men in the green forest say that they are rebelling against the tyranny of abusive officials, but the government exploits and oppresses the good people.
Even if you don't talk about those green forest strongmen who are used to killing people and setting fires, among the three mountains of Jingdong Road, I heard that Chao Gai and Song Jiang of Liangshan also said that they put benevolence and righteousness first, and did not harm the lives of ordinary people, but the dragons and snakes under their command were mixed, and how many leaders in the village were also heard that the gang had a lot of innocent and good blood on their hands before they defected to Liangshan and joined the gang.
But in the next but know that the whole big leader and the group of heroes under his command are really benevolent and righteous first, not only to eradicate the corrupt officials and bullies who are the victim of one side by thunderous means, but also in the rivers and lakes do not take into account the green forest colleagues, but also jealousy and hatred, in the lower thought that the official has turbidity, but now the world is becoming more and more dim, and the thieves in the green forest no matter how whitewash benevolence and righteousness, for the four words of the heavenly road, only the whole big leader and the few mountains under the command can be called, since the whole big leader is not vulgar, willing to recruit in the next Juyi....... Lin is willing to go to the cottage to join the gang, although he is not talented, he is also willing to do his best! ”
Listening to Lin Ren say this, Xiao Tang completely understood why this Lin Ren took the risk to rescue Chai Jin, who had no friendship with each other in the original book, and only received Song Jiang's reward after making a great favor to Liang Shanbo, but he did not take the opportunity to invest in the cottage and did a good job on Liangshan. Because Lin Ren is not accustomed to indiscriminately polluting officials for private use, wanton persecution and oppression, and he, a section from a prison school, can be regarded as out of the mud and unstained, there are indeed some vicious bandits in Liangshanbo who strip the living and destroy the innocence of women from good families, but Lin Ren is unwilling to be with those people.
Thinking about it this way, Xiao Tang found that Lin Ren's principles of life were also somewhat similar to himself. Seeing him bow to himself, Xiao Tang also immediately got up to help, and when Lin Ren was held up, he was surprised to find that the mask on the face of the new cottage leader had disappeared. With sharp eyebrows and fierce eyes, a very masculine and mighty face appeared in front of him, Lin Ren not only saw Xiao Tang's true face of Lushan, but also quickly heard his brother say that the co-owner of the green forest and several mountains, "Iron-faced Hedgehog" Quan Yu, who is it, and what kind of person is it, and Xiao Tang's purpose of doing so two-way to you. Lin Ren was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, especially when Xiao Tang said that he had set up a village to occupy the state overseas, compared to those evil officials in other official prisons in the Great Song Dynasty who stretched out their hands to ask for money and had no money to die, the local government also needed him to help a person like him who was skilled in the way of a scholar and helped the weak.......
The matter on the side of Gaotang Prefecture has also been settled, the treasury, especially the grain and rice in the Yicang Mansion, Xiao Tang is still not half a grain, and the soldiers and horses under his command will all the furniture of Gao Lian, together with all the family property that the gang has embezzled firewood into the car, and the men and horses of the battalions have left Gaotang Prefecture, and they are divided into two roads, and the two battalions of soldiers and horses and Lin Ren, who has newly joined the village, rushed to the direction of the two mountains of Qingzhou. Xiao Tang led the rest of the soldiers and horses, and together with Lin Chong, Qin Ming and other leaders near Wei County on the west side of the Daimyo's Mansion, they marched south, and then went straight to Dongping Mansion on Jingdong Road......
