Chapter 124 is embarrassed
Let's say that Dai Zong heard that Cai Jiu had summoned him, and hurriedly took Song Jiang out of his mansion, and came directly to the prefect Cai Jiu's mansion. Came to the door, walked forward, knocked on the door knocker, and soon a housekeeper opened the door, and when he saw that it was Dai Zong, he said politely: "Oh, it turned out to be Dean Dai, I don't know what Dean Dai is doing so late?" ”
Dai Zong often comes to Cai Jiu's house, so he is very familiar with the housekeeper of Cai's house, and immediately arched his hand to the housekeeper and said: "Steward Cai, I have to pass on the message to the adult, and if I have something important to see the adult, I hope that the housekeeper will know one or two." As he spoke, he took out thirty taels of silver from his bosom and handed it to the butler.
The housekeeper said with a smile on his face: "Since there is something important, Xiao naturally does not dare to delay." The adults just didn't rest, and they were still following Huang Tong's judgment. The little one will go to report it, Dean Dai will wait a while. Then he turned and went in.
After a while, the butler came out again and said with a smile: "Dean Dai, the adults are invited, please come with Dean Dai and the little ones." ”
After Dai Zong said hard work, he followed the housekeeper in, and came to the backyard study of Cai's mansion around the corner, Dai Zong pushed the door into the study, and saw Jiangzhou Taishou Cai Jiu sitting behind the bookcase, and Jiangzhou Tongju Huang Wenbing sitting next to him.
Cai Jiu looked at the age of almost thirty or forty years old, this age was already considered middle-aged and elderly in ancient times, but he was very energetic, with big ears, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a face like a crown of jade, a long hair under his chin, wearing a moon-white robe, looking polite, maybe this is a traitorous loyalty.
Cai Jiu's original name is Cai Dezhang, and he is the ninth son of Cai Jiu, the imperial master, so they all call him Cai Jiu, who is "corrupt for officials and arrogant in his work".
"I've seen an adult, and I've been sentenced!"
"Xiao Ke Song Jiang has seen the prefect, and the general sentence is the adult!"
Song Jiang knew Cai Jiu, but he had never met Huang Wenbing, and knew that this was Cai Jiu's confidant.
Huang Wenbing, who was sitting next to him, saw that Huang Wenbing was not wearing an official uniform, a cyan robe, a bronze complexion, a thin and cold face, a pair of sharp sword eyebrows obliquely inserted into the temples, eyes like electricity, a straight nose and a square mouth, three short hairs under the chin, and a capable appearance.
Song Jiang heard that he was originally a "idle judge" who lived idle in a small town of Wuwei Army, "although this person reads the scriptures, he is a sycophant, narrow-minded, as long as he is jealous of the virtuous and jealous, he is better than the one who has harmed him, and he is not as good as the one who has done it, and he specializes in harming people in the township, and he only wants to harm people in his heart, and he is used to doing bad things, and the Wuwei Army calls him a 'wasp sting'." ”
These few short sentences make Huang Wenbing's personality and conduct clear: first of all, he is a scholar who reads the scriptures, is sensible and very talented; secondly, he has a strong desire to be promoted; the third is that he is narrow-minded and jealous; Fourth, he loves to play with right and wrong and takes pleasure in harming others.
Song Jiang once chatted with Wu Yong, and Wu Yong attributed scholars to four kinds of people: one is to study and become an official, which is the most lofty ideal and belief of scholars; the second is to sing praises for virtue, for those who have the power, money and power to sing praises in exchange for their own interests to achieve personal goals; the third is to inform, betraying others to pave the way for personal goals; Fourth, jealousy can rectify people behind their backs, use conspiracies and tricks to harm others, and after achieving their goals, they will begin to be villains, and at the same time laugh at those who are inferior to themselves while harming others. This Huang Wenbing took all four of them.
Song Jiang also heard that Huang Wenbing's elder brother Huang Wenye was a great benevolent person, and he was very worried about his younger brother's actions, and scolded him: "Do such a short-lived thing again!" If you have nothing to do with it, why do you want to harm him? If there is a heavenly principle, the retribution is only in front of you, but it is not the other way around! ”
Governor Cai Jiu saw Dai Zong and Song Jiang walking in, and said with a smile: "Dai Zong, I called you over so late, but there is something!" ”
Dai Zong first arched his hand towards the two, and then replied: "I think this matter is very important, my lord should give orders." ”
Huang Wenbing on the side looked at Song Jiang at this time and asked: "I heard that Song Zhisi once killed people, and he still fell into the grass in Baihu Mountain, and he even had some friendship with Chao Gai and Wang Lun?" ”
Cai Jiu has some things that are difficult to say, so he needs Huang Wenbing to come forward.
Every time Huang Wenbing said a word, Song Jiang's face became ugly. At this time, he didn't care about his image, and knelt on the ground again, "My lord, Xiao Ke's sin has been forgiven." Now although he is wearing a sinful body, he is under the name of the Jeju prefect to do things for the imperial court! ”
After listening to Song Jiang's words, Huang Wenbing was noncommittal, and then said: "What the priest said is good, but I don't know if there will be progress in this matter, when the thief can be caught!" ”
Song Jiang originally wanted Cai Jiu to borrow his own power and sell at a price, but he didn't want Huang Wenbing to come to force the palace. At this time, I couldn't help hating Huang Wenbing. But in front of Cai Jiu, he didn't dare to show it.
"According to the news from Xiao Ke's subordinates, that they found the Liangshan bandit leader Wang Lun and Chao Gai in Jieyang Town, and there are many Jianghu people walking around the Jiangzhou border these days, according to reliable information, Wang Lun is now in Jiangzhou City."
Song Jiang's words can be said to have stirred up a thousand waves, Cai Jiu and Huang Wenbing stood up in shock, this Wang Lun knows what it is, the biggest anti-thief leader in Shandong and Hebei can be said to be one of the few people that the imperial court wants to get rid of the most, this person is actually in Jiangzhou, if you seize the opportunity, then it will be easy to get promoted and get rich in exchange for black yarn hats.
Song Jiang observed the expressions of the two people with the corner of his eye as he spoke, and found that Cai Jiu and Huang Wenbing were both surprised, and then their eyes lit up.
As soon as Song Jiang's words fell, Cai Jiu couldn't wait to ask, "Song Jiang, is this news really uncertain?" ”
"Absolutely." Song Jiang nodded and said with an oath.
Huang Wenbing saw that Cai Jiu was moved by Song Jiang's words, and he took the initiative again, so he couldn't help coughing lightly and said: "Song Zhusi's strategy is good, I'm afraid it's too slow!" ”
Dai Zong knew Huang Wenbing's character, and hurriedly complimented him. "Judge the talent, and be willing to listen to the clever plan!"
Song Jiang had no choice but to let go of his dissatisfaction with Huang Wenbing, and arched his hand: "I want to hear about it!"
At that moment, Huang Wenbing heard Dai Zong's compliment, squinted his eyes and smiled, and suddenly his eyes rolled, and he immediately said: "I have a plan here, if it succeeds, I can wipe out Wang Lun, Chao Gai and others." ”
"What's the trick for the judge?" Cai Jiu's eyes lit up when he heard Huang Wenbing's words, and he hurriedly asked at the moment.
Huang Wenbing smiled slightly, and said: "That Liangshan Caokou claims to be a loyal and righteous man, we arrested a few of his fellow Jianghu and threw him into our Jiangzhou prison, and when the time comes, he will release the wind and say that he has caught the Liangshan thief in Jiangzhou, and he will be punished on the right day, and he will be beheaded, with that Wang Lun's temperament, Jiangzhou City is the Longtan Tiger's Den, and he has to come over to break through." ”
"General judgment! What if Wang Lun doesn't come? Won't our efforts be in vain? Dai Zong next to him asked puzzledly.
Hearing Dai Zong's question, Huang Wenbing pretended to be profound and said: "It's better in this way, if Wang Lun doesn't come to rescue his brother in Liangshan, it will inevitably make the other Liangshan leaders feel cold, Liangshan will not be monolithic, and it will not be far from the destruction of Liangshan at that time." ”
Dai Zong suddenly realized, and said flatteringly at the moment: "It's a clever plan, in this way, whether Wang Lun comes or not, it will be beneficial to us." ”
Song Jiang on the side listened to Huang Wenbing's strategy, and his heart ached. Isn't this Huang Wenbing's strategy a traitorous plan born out of Song Jiang? Now it has become the credit of Huang Wenbing!
At this time, Huang Wenbing's words were not finished, and he came to Song Jiang's side and said: "Song Zhisi has a lot of fame in the rivers and lakes, and I want to come to Jiangzhou these days to have some friends in the rivers and lakes. With the help of Dean Dai, it will not be difficult to find a candidate who is involved in the Liangshan thief! ”
This is to let Song Jiang carry the black pot and take the name!
Song Jiang listened to Huang Wenbing's words, and his breath became short! Dai Zong also looked at Song Jiang nervously, afraid that he would not be able to open his mouth Cai Jiu.
Cai Jiu also gave an order to Song Jiang at this time, "This is Song Zhisi's unshirkable responsibility, if this matter is completed, I will guarantee you a future!" ”
Dead friends don't die poor! Song Jiang gritted his teeth and replied: "Song Jiang is only on orders!" ”
Hearing Song Jiang's assurance, Cai Jiu slapped the table excitedly and said, "Okay, this is an excellent time to arrest the Liangshan thief, and Huang Tong will be responsible for this matter, with Dean Dai and Song Zhisi assisting." ”
··································
The three of them left the Taishou Mansion one after the other, Song Jiang didn't speak, and Dai Zong asked, "Huang Tongju, what should I do now?" The lower officials all listened to the orders of the judge. ”
Huang Wenbing lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "That Wang Lun has been prosperous in the past few years, and he has repelled the officers and soldiers of the imperial court one after another, which shows that he still has some ability, not an ordinary mountain king, and Wang Lun and Chao Gai will not come alone when they go south to Jiangzhou this time, I am afraid that there are not a few people with strong martial arts around him, so we should be careful." ”
"Dean Dai, you and I will immediately go to the barracks, mobilize both land and water troops, first strictly guard the four gates of Jiangzhou City, block the port wharf, conduct a full search, once a suspicious person is found, arrest immediately, and kill those who disobey!"
After speaking, Huang Wenbing looked at Song Jiang and said, "I'll come with Song Zhusi to invite you into the urn!"
