Wang Lun originally wanted to lay out with Li Zhu and Zhu Wu in order to lay out for the future. I don't want to have an accident outside just at the beginning, so I have to discuss it later.

Li Zhu stood up, stared at Pan Xiaoqi and asked, "Did you hurt anyone?" How did the fire start? "These things are all in charge of Li Zhu, if you hurt someone, I'm afraid that Wang Lun will be unhappy.

"It doesn't matter if the fire is extinguished, it didn't hurt anyone!" Looking at the eager eyes of Wang Lun and the others, Pan Xiaoqi agreed, and then whispered: "But people are fighting!" The two leaders, Song and Du, and the iron-faced Mu Pei Xuan, who was in charge of rewards and punishments, were anxious, and the three of them were there to do it. Leader Pei and his eighth-class servants were beaten enough to see blood, but fortunately, there were Wang and Lin two coaches! “

This time back to the mountain, there were several more leaders, and everyone was happy. Except for Bian Xiang's work in Chai Jin, Lin Chong became the head of the sect and cooperated with Wang Jin. Lu Zhishen and Shi Xiu became the leaders of the infantry, and Shan Shiqi became the leader of the cavalry. Cui Ye has to go back and make other arrangements.

This is all good, but the iron-faced Pei Xuan has transferred the copycat military law and set the rewards and punishments. It is equivalent to hanging a sharp sword on everyone's heads and putting on a splint, afraid that they will not be able to take weight.

No, something happened in just a few days, which made Wang Lun not annoyed!

"Let's go! Let's check it out! As soon as he heard that the leaders had made a move, Wang Lun smoked. The matter was urgent, and with Li Zhu and Zhu Wu, he hurriedly asked Pan Xiaoqi to lead the way and rushed to the place where the accident occurred.

On the way, Pan Xiaoqi briefly recounted the experience.

It turned out that the money, food and materials were all in the back mountain, and it was the turn of the three villages in front of the mountain this morning. Pei Xuan and Du Qian presided over it, and distributed the rewards according to the merit book in the back mountain, and the minions of all sizes were happy, and they each received their own things.

But the back mountain road to the front mountain road is not easy to walk, transported for half a day, has not been transported, things and people are crowded there, hindering the water village to receive. Tai Sui Ruan Xiaoer, the leader of the water village, transferred a big boat from the water village, beckoned the rest of the people to mark their things and put them on the boat, and the water army helped them go around the front mountain by water.

It was supposed to be a good thing, but who expected that the ship caught fire on the way. By the time they barely landed, the fire was already uncontrollable.

Yang Chun and Chen Da in Qianzhai also had a lot of things on the boat. Seeing the ferocity of the fire, the two of them ordered everyone to cry, regardless of whose thing belonged or where, just rescue it, and whoever rescued it belonged to whomever it was.

Du Qian was in charge of the money and food, and when he saw that the loss was not small, he had no choice but to listen. Unexpectedly, Pei Xuan, who was an iron-faced face together, brought eight classes of officers to block it with horizontal knives, and everyone was not allowed to get on the boat to rescue things.

The two argued, and Song Wan also came forward to help explain, saying that it was better for the brothers to take something than to burn it. But Pei Xuan refused with a dark face, seeing that a boatload of things at a good end was burned like that. Everyone was so distressed that they stomped their feet and sprinkled their hatred on Pei Xuan, and they moved on both sides.

Pei Xuan brought few people, how could he resist the fists and feet of so many people, and he was put down several times after dividing five by two. Fortunately, Wang Jin and Lin Chong were right in front of them, and hurriedly went to persuade to avoid a dispute.

While talking, we reached the front of the mountain. The scene was really chaotic, the wreckage of the boat on the water was still smoking, the crowd on the shore was noisy and shouting, and Wang Lun searched for a long time but didn't find Pei Xuan and them.

Zhu Wu's eyes were sharp, and he pointed to the water not far away and said, "There, that small boat." “

Wang Lun looked over, and sure enough, he saw that Pei Xuan and his men were in a small boat. Pei Xuan's red robe was torn several times, and the people around him were injured and lying on the boat. Not far from the shore, Ruan Xiaoer was talking about something while Song Wan and Du Qian were talking.

Zhu Wu knew that there was still something about Chen Da and Yang Chun here, so he sent Pan Xiaoqi to call the two of them over. Without waiting for the two of them to speak, he said to Chen Da: "Give you a stick of incense time, and bring all your people back to the village." After a stick of incense, but let me see that there are still your soldiers on this shore, I will order you to be beheaded! “

It is rare for everyone to see Zhu Wu being ruthless, still facing his old brother. Today, looking at Zhu Wu's knife-like eyes, his heart is empty. The people of Liangshan were the most taboo about fratricide, and the people on the shore quickly withdrew.

Ruan Xiaoer picked up the people who were hiding in the boat, and Pei Xuan's legs were a little lame. Wang Lun glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Li Zhu and Wang Jin stayed to deal with the aftermath, and the others talked to me in the Juyi Hall!" “

It's a big deal!

In the Juyi Hall, confronted in the hall, Du Qian said aggrievedly: "Everything is exchanged for the lives of the brothers, no matter who they give it to, it is better than burning it with fire." But Leader Pei insisted on letting things burn in vain, and the brothers were not convinced!! ”

Song Wan also stomped his feet and said, "Brother! A boatload of cloth, silk, grain, and rice was burned in vain, and I was distressed! ”

Wang Lun looked at the two old brothers, and sighed in his heart that these two brothers did not have enough vision and did not understand their hard work.

"Which one listens to you two crying poor, and listens to Leader Pei!" Wang Lun glared and counted Song Wan's sentence.

Everyone turned their eyes to Pei Xuan, who stood limp all the time. Lin Chong pulled a chair, helped him sit down, and whispered, "Brother Pei Xuan, tell me what you think in front of the elder brother of the village owner and the brothers of the family." ”

Lin Chong and Pei Xuan led troops all the way in Daliao, and they had a deep relationship, and he was also anxious for Pei Xuan.

Pei Xuan hugged his fists at the brothers, but before he could speak, his nose was sour, and a few tears fell out first, and said: "Brother the owner of the village, the leaders, if there was no brother and Liangshan, I, Pei Xuan, would have buried my body in the wilderness." ”

Wang Lun saw Pei Xuan's sadness, and gently soothed: "It's in the past, Brother Pei don't mention it again." If you have grievances, just talk about it, and I will make the decision for you! ”

At this time, Pei Xuancai said: "Pei Mou, like everyone, knows that the money and food in our Liangshan are all exchanged for the lives of the brothers. I don't want to watch this shipload of good stuff burn down. But today's events are really out of helplessness, and I have to burn them, and I can't stop burning them. The words stunned everyone.

Yang Chun and Chen Da were reprimanded by Zhu Wu, but they were uneven, and their eyes flashed with a little confusion. "Brother Pei, just say it, if it's not ours, I'm willing to make amends to you!"

So Pei Xuan told everyone a reason that no one expected.

"Each cargo on the ship has its own owner, but when the fire broke out, it was inseparable from each other. When everyone gets on the boat to save things, some people will inevitably take more and some will take less, and some people will not be able to get it if they are slow. He who takes less will be dissatisfied with him and will compete with him who takes more. As a result, the good thing of fighting fires can easily evolve into only grabbing things and no one putting out fires, and there will be fights and brawls. It's a must-have! ”

"He who takes a lot in the fire will get lucky because of a windfall. He would think: what was not available in the cottage could be obtained so easily in a fire. So the next time there is a fire, it is inevitable that some people only want things and do not put out the fire; What's more, there will be people who want to set fire, or even set fires, in order to legally satisfy their own selfish interests. It's a must-have! ”

"There are two things that are indispensable, you can know that it is a small matter to burn a boatload of things, and it is a big matter to corrupt the cottage atmosphere. You can't plant hidden dangers in Liangshan because of greed for small profits. Therefore, in times of crisis like today, there are only two ways to dispose of property, either return it to the public or burn it. ”

Chen Da and Yang Chun were red-faced by Pei Xuan's words, and today his subordinates did not have this situation, but Pei Xuan said it. At this time, Du Qian was also convinced by Pei Xuan, and sincerely asked: "Then why can't today's property be snatched out and returned to the public?" ”

Pei Xuan still saluted Du Qian, and then replied: "Once the property has been owned, it is impossible to distinguish whether the rescued is the firefighter's own, in case he rescues his own things and has to return them to the public, there will be resentment in his heart; Second, even if all of them are returned to the public and compensation is made in the future, it is inevitable that there will be many people, some people will hide in private, and everyone will compare with each other, so that they will only grab things and not put out fires. ”

Speaking of this, Pei Xuan paused and said, "The above are all worries, not the point. Originally, these two worries were ruled out, and it was still possible to grab things and return them to the public. Blame the brothers for giving hasty orders without consultation, and let others take their property in the sea of fire; The order has been issued, and the matter cannot be reversed, and the only way to prevent everyone from getting on the ship is to burn the ship's things than to spoil the atmosphere. ”

The words were convincing to everyone, and Song Wan and Du Qian also bowed their heads and remained silent.

Wang Lun looked at Chen Da, Yang Chun, Song Wan, and Du Qian, and asked, "Do you have anything to say?" ”

Du Qian replied first: "There is nothing to say!" Saying that, he saluted Pei Xuan, "I am willing to apologize to Brother Pei!" ”

The others also followed up to apologize to Pei Xuan, saying, "I am convinced, and I have failed Brother Pei!" ”

Pei Xuanlian said that he didn't need to, and helped the private people up one by one.

Wang Lun saw it, but he didn't want to leave it at that, and shouted: "Chen Da and Yang Chun's orders are unknown, the loss of property is small, and the soldiers are fighting for robbery. He was punished with three months, and twenty rods were used. ”

"Song Wan and Du Qian do not distinguish between right and wrong, clash with the law enforcement hall, and brothers hurt each other. Thirty spine sticks, three days of thought behind closed doors. ”

This is the first time that Liangshan has punished the leader since its establishment, and everyone's hearts are pang, not only re-examining the Law Enforcement Hall and Pei Xuan. Moreover, there are two founding fathers here, Song Wan and Du Qian, who are in charge of the treasury and money and grain.

Shi Bao, Shi Jin, Guanghui and others wanted to ask for mercy but were afraid that they would not have enough face, Zhu Wu was enough to save face, but Chen Da and Yang Chun were his old brothers who were not easy to talk to.

Just as he was hesitating, Pei Xuan spoke. Brother of the owner of the village, it happened suddenly, and several brothers are also for the great cause of Liangshan, and I hope that my brother will be light! ”

Seeing Pei Xuan speak, Li Zhu on the side also said: "Now that the cottage is the time to employ people, I hope my brother's subordinates will be merciful!" ”

When the rest of the people saw this, they also pleaded for mercy.

Seeing this, Wang Lun said in his heart: Sure enough, the revolutionary team is not easy to lead! In China from ancient times to the present, it is good to value human feelings above legal principles. It's just that Liang Shan is a reckless hero, and he is afraid that it will backfire if he blindly focuses on love. All Wang Lun insisted on punishment and would not tolerate it. If this is the case, the rules of Liangshan are not just a dead letter!

"At the beginning of the establishment of the cottage, I said: the state has national laws, and the village has rules! Needless to say! ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts sank, and they did not dare to disobey.

When everyone dispersed, Li Zhu made a comment to Pei Xuan: "Loyal to the liver and courageous, serving the public and knowing the big festival, being humiliated without losing his will, Liangshan is a model of integrity." ”
