Today's Luan Tingyu is not as depressed and depressed as he was some time ago, he went straight to Xiao Tang and saluted: "The villain Luan Tingyu, although he knows some guns and martial arts, his former employer Zhujiazhuang was broken by the strong men of the three mountains on Jingdong Road, and the villain is not good, so he is ashamed to mention it again...... Now that he is contained, the villain should be whipped and stirruped, and serve Xiao Renxia. ”

Since Luan Tingyu also threw himself into the Xiao family, through what he has seen and heard over the years, he has found that Bian Xiang, who is in charge of nearly 10,000 people in the market town, has amazing strange power, and his extravagance in martial arts seems to be much better than himself; Chen Guang, who is also a gun teacher in the market town, is proficient in guns, and if it weren't for the horse battle competition, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to win; In addition, Xiao Yi, Yang Lin and other stewards who are familiar with people and things, Shi Yong, Xue Yong, Fu Xiang and others are also honest men who can be trusted with them, that is, Duan Jingzhu, Chang Shun and others do not seem to have much extravagance to cover up their skills, but in fact, they are all capable people who specialize in the art industry, and then Yan Qing and Shi Xiu follow Xiao Tang in Bianjing, Daimyo's Mansion and other places The cronies are also handsome and heroic.

At this time, Xiao Tang stepped forward to help Luan Tingyu again, and also with his thoughts, asked: "Teacher Luan is skilled in martial arts, and he is also a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, although that Zhujiazhuang was broken by the green forest soldiers and horses, I know that you are also outnumbered, and it is not a crime of war." It's just that the old employer was destroyed by the three mountains on Jingdong Road, does Teacher Luan have a grudge against the soldiers and horses in the green forests of those mountains? ”

Unexpectedly, the new master who defected to the new owner who was different from the cloud and mud of Zhujiazhuang and his gang would have such a question, he was slightly stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then said calmly: "Since Xiao Renxia inquired, the villain should know everything and not hide it at all." The gang of strongmen in Shuibo Liangshan killed my brother Luan Tingfang, and the villain hated in his heart. But the gang of strong men in the two mountains of Qingzhou ...... It's not a secret, it's true that the leaders in the village have the ability to cover up the villain, not only sparing not to kill but also very courteous, since he was born by the grace of the righteous interpretation of the co-lord of the mountains, if he didn't help himself, the villain really didn't want to have anything to do with the two mountains of Qingzhou. ”

After saying that, Luan Tingyu saluted Xiao Tang again and said, "I just heard that Quan Yu, the co-owner of the green forest and several mountains, broke Yanggu County that day, and it seems that he almost collided with Xiao Renxia." At the same time, the soldiers and horses of the two mountains of Qingzhou once entered the Daimyo's mansion, and it was also the military boundary where Xiao Renxia had stepped in the past. Xiao Jiaji and Qingzhou are not very far away, and now that gang of strong men has made a big noise, but I don't know if Xiao Renxia has moved the mind of inviting the imperial court army to fight against him? Xiao Renxia asked the villain how he thought of those strong people, he didn't dare to hide it, and he had to make the concerns in my heart clear first, but if Xiao Renxia was still sent, the villain would still obey. ”

Xiao Tang, who had probably been able to perceive Luan Tingyu's thoughts before, heard him say this, knowing that Luan Tingyu was indeed speaking openly to himself, and he had a little more respect for him in his heart, so he said: "Teacher Luan, even if you and I don't have to speak thoroughly, but now you probably know how many pickled things are in the lawsuits of the world, why Yanggu County was broken by the soldiers and horses of the green forests of the two mountains of Qingzhou, and the reason for this has also spread locally, and it is not deliberately to be my enemy."

Although I have an official body, and I have also eliminated evil and thieves, in addition to many strong men who gathered people to make trouble, Hugh said that there are also some old acquaintances of me in those two cottages, but I also know that whether it is an official or a strong man in the green forest, there are people who should be killed and those who can be trusted with him. There is no reason to have to be an enemy of it, so why should I provoke the two cottages in Qingzhou? ”

Listening to Xiao Tang's loud voice, Luan Tingyu's face showed a look of surprise, although they were still talking to each other for a long time, but Luan Tingyu also felt a little inexplicable familiarity when talking to Xiao Tangyan......

It is said that there is a steward in the hall of the Xiao family's main mansion to arrange a banquet, and when the master of the family and the brothers are having a banquet, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian, Tang Huai, Wang Gui and others naturally went to the mansion to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Xiao Tang. When Yue Fei's Hun's Liu family also came to visit Xiao Tang with his young son Yue Yun in his arms, everyone in the hall saw that the little guy in the swaddling clothes was very lively, but some people came to twist their little arms and legs like crazy, which was also very interesting. It's just that Yue Fei's father, Yue He, is still sick and weak, and before the Liu family could flatter Xiao Tang a few more words, he was sent home by Yue Fei to help his mother-in-law take care of his father-in-law.

Seeing Liu's expression of complaint but not daring to say it clearly, the stereotyped relationship between Yue Fei and his wife also made Xiao Tang look at it, but there was a topic that could not be avoided in the banquet, that is, some time ago, the two strong men of the two mountains in Qingzhou made waves one after another, not only defeated the officials and troops of Jingdong and Hebei Prefectures, but even broke through the Daming Mansion of the Great Song Dynasty under the rule of Xiao Jiaji in Zongcheng County.

Among Yue Fei's several sworn brothers, Wang Gui is the one with the most rough temperament and a strong reckless temperament. It was Wang Gui who didn't think that the Daimyo's Mansion was how to break through the Qingzhou Two Mountains and Strongmen, but laughed loudly that since Xiao Tang's brother was transferred to Bianliang, Tokyo, the officers and soldiers of the Daimyo's Mansion who stayed behind were not as good as day by day, and he also talked about He Rong's defense of the territory, and he was repeatedly defeated and lost by the soldiers and horses of the green forest who gathered in the mountains and forests, but he didn't want to teach people to laugh off his big teeth? Of course, Wang Gui also knew the taboo of his righteous brother Yue Fei, and he didn't go on to talk about it, but just mentioned that although the Daimyo Mansion was lost, there was no difference between the people living under his rule, and I heard that there were still many poor people who got food and clothing from the heroes of the two mountains.

However, Yue Fei still sank his face when he heard this, and persuaded Wang Gui with righteous words: "Brother, this is wrong! Although I also know that in the two cottages in Qingzhou, there may not be many strong criminals who are forced to follow the thieves, although it is rare to gather in the mountains and forests but refuse to harm ordinary people, but it can be tolerated outside the law, but the love must not exceed the law! Under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, the important land of the state capital was broken by the thieves of the rebellious side, how can this be child's play? According to me, Quan Yu, the communist leader of the several mountains who gathered the thieves to make trouble, deliberately bought the hearts of the people, and coaxed many people to give up their lives to rebel with him.

Brother Hugh thinks that those cottages are not bad and innocent and good, what is the way for heaven, today he Qingzhou and the two mountains break the Daimyo's mansion, tomorrow there will be other green forests and grass robbers will follow the same example to invade the state and seize the county, if the people are upside down against the evil words fabricated by the thieves and instigated to gather and follow it, the country will only become more and more turbulent! In fact, Quan Yu and the thief party under his command are also deeply guilty, Brother Xiao Tang has a lot of important things to do in Bianjing, and if the group of thieves and rebels can't be used by the country, when my brothers enlist in the army, they will meet some strong bandit leaders who can appease the best, otherwise remember not to be mixed with those thieves, and must not be deceived by the chaotic party. ”

Even if he is often reckless in arguing with others, Wang Gui is very respectful of Xiao Tang and Yue Fei, the two brothers he believes in his heart. Even if he didn't agree with Yue Fei's words, Wang Gui had no choice but to respond, but when Yue Fei was righteously persuading Wang Gui, he didn't notice that there were many eyes behind him that contained hatred, helplessness, and even hostility. But it was Xiao Tang who swept his eyes around, signaling the henchmen in the hall who knew that he was acting in two lines and was not impatient.

When we meet again one day, you will see me as an enemy of the troubled country...... Xiao Tang thought about it in his heart, and the wry smile on his face was fleeting, but he raised the wine bowl and said to Yue Fei: "Brother has been cultivated by his mentor hard, and he has never been slack off in the past few years. For my brother, I also look forward to the day when you will inspire Huayi and make immortal contributions to the mountains and rivers of China. ”

Yue Fei listened, compared to what Xiao Tang said that only talked about the mountains and rivers of China and did not mention the Great Song Dynasty, he only felt that his fellow senior brother praised him, and even called his brother falsely praised, and his brother also looked forward to serving the country together one day. Later, after only one tour of the banquet and wine, Yue Fei asked Xiao Tang to resign and said that his father still needed to take care of him, and when his brother set off to return to Bianjing, the younger brother took the lead in saying his guilt, got up and left the Xiao family's mansion.

Seeing that Zhang Xian, Tang Huai, and Wang Gui were eating smoothly and talking happily with each other, Xiao Tang took a sip of wine, and muttered to Yan Qing beside him: "But I don't know what the situation is in Mengzhou, have Brother Lehe seen Second Brother Wu?" ”8)
