The sun is up, and it's a sunny morning!

After a night of panic, the people of the city were somewhat relieved to see that no thieves had broken through the gate and entered the house to burn and loot.

Forced to make a living, they all cautiously walked out of the house to see the situation outside.

At this time in the city, groups of Liangshan troops were patrolling the streets. On the streets, those chaifu who had entered the city early in the morning saw Liang Shanjun coming, and they hurriedly dodged to both sides of the road.

Even some of them were prepared for the bandits to ask for favors from them. Those who use their wealth to eliminate disasters would rather give them all the copper money on their bodies than provoke them.

provoke officers and soldiers, and maybe live.

If you provoke a thief, find someone to avenge him.

Is it official?

Now that the government has been conquered by them, the government has a fart!

But to their surprise, these thieves did not run over to rob them viciously, and continued to patrol with expressionless faces.

Only then did they remember that this gang of thieves was Liang Shanjun. Seeing that the Liangshan army did not disturb the people as rumored, the people in the city also accepted the fact that Qingzhou City was captured by thieves, and the streets began to be lively again, and all kinds of shops opened for business one after another.

Everything is just like the old days!

Even if ordinary people know that Qingzhou City is now conquered by thieves, they are forced to go out to continue working for their livelihood.

Those wealthy families in high-ranking mansions are all bound by their families and families not to go out.

They have a wide range of knowledge, and they are worried that these bandits will not leave if they occupy Qingzhou City.

The imperial court will inevitably send a large army to encircle and suppress, and if this group of Liangshan troops cannot resist, they will be able to hold on.

When the officers and soldiers come in, I am afraid that there will inevitably be a bloody storm.

Those officers and soldiers were not as disciplined as the Liangshan Army and did not disturb the people.

If there is no seam, they have to drill a hole to find fault and ask for money. If this has something to do with the bandits, it will not be exploited by these greedy officers and soldiers.

They will be the ones who will suffer.

Even if Liang Shanjun's reputation is good, people from these big families will never dare to venture out.

Without worrying these guys for long, the soldiers of the Liangshan Army went in and out to load the treasury gold and silk, the warehouse, and the rice and grain, all on the carts, totaling five or six hundred carts. Then Shi Jin took the army and left Qingzhou City without head.

The Liangshan army had been walking for more than an hour, and some officials in Qingzhou City dared to run out of their homes and walked into the state capital to release Murong Yanda.

It's just that at this time, Shi Jin had already asked Wu Yong to return to Liangshan with the army first, and he himself led three hundred cavalry to Hujiazhuang.

Shi Jin left Qingzhou City for nearly two days, and Qin Ming rushed to Qingzhou City on a bad horse.

After staying in Liangshan for two days and three nights, Qin Ming was poured wine by the leaders until his face turned pale.

After getting up that day, Qin Ming saw Lin Chong as soon as he went out, and he was so frightened that he shouted, "Leader Lin, I really can't drink anymore." If I drink it any more, I'll be killed by you!" ”

Lin Chong saw Qin Ming's somewhat pale face, and thought to himself that if he really continued to pour it, he might really kill Qin Ming.

I've been staying with him for two days, and with the speed of my eldest brother's march, I should also be in Qingzhou City.

Lin Chong immediately shouted: "Look at what General Qin said, you are in the prime of life, how can a few bowls of wine pour you to death?" However, since Qin Ming was in a hurry to go back, Lin Chong was not forced to stay. This will send General Qin down the mountain! ”

When Qin Ming heard that Lin Chong was going to send him down the mountain, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Leader Lin, since you don't kill me anymore, please return my armor, horses, and weapons to me!" ”

For a general, the most important thing is nothing more than weapons, armor, and horses.

Although the horse under Qin Ming's seat was not a thousand-mile horse, it was also a good horse, but it cost him a few hundred taels to buy it at the beginning.

The mace weighed 72 kilograms, and the cost of iron alone cost a lot.

That armor isn't a bargain either.

If you lose it and want to buy a pair, it will cost a lot of money.

If you can come back, you still have a cheeky face to come back.

Lin Chong thought that the eldest brother was planning to recruit Qin Ming, and this guy would also be his own brother in the future, so this requirement still had to be met. So he nodded and said, "General Qin doesn't have to worry, I will ask the pawn to go to the warehouse to pick it up and return it to General Qin." It's just General Qin, don't you really think about staying and gathering righteousness with us? You must know that your defeat this time is basically the loss of soldiers and horses. That Murong Zhizhou is a mean and unkind person, I'm afraid that if you go back this time, you will definitely be questioned! ”

Qin Ming shook his head and said, "The imperial court didn't treat me Qin Ming badly, and I, Qin Ming, can't be that disloyal and unrighteous person." ”

Lin Chong saw that Qin Ming had made up his mind, so he had no choice but to say: "Since General Qin insists on going down the mountain, then Lin Chong doesn't dare to force him to stay." I'll send you down the mountain! ”

Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it and said, "I'm in a hurry to go back, so I won't bother Lord Shizhai." Please let him know! ”

Lin Chong nodded and said, "I will!" ”

After a while, several soldiers took Qin Ming's armor and weapons, and helped Qin Ming put them on.

Qin Ming took the mace, got on the horse and said goodbye to Lin Chong's leaders, crossed the golden beach, went ashore to take the road and flew to Qingzhou.

After three days of driving, Qin Ming saw that Qingzhou City was calm, and the people came and went at the city gate, and he didn't see any panic.

He had some doubts, could it be that this Liangshan thief did not take the opportunity to attack Qingzhou City.

Although he was a little curious, Qin Ming said hello to a capital at the city gate, and rode towards the state capital.

He was ordered to go on the expedition, and after he came back this time, he would also report to Murong Zhizhou.

After the report, Qin Ming just walked into the lobby, and immediately twenty or thirty officials with water and fire sticks poured out from all around, embracing Murong Yanda and walking out.

As soon as he looked at Qin Ming, Murong Yanda immediately shouted angrily: "Qin Ming, you led 10,000 officers and soldiers, why was the whole army annihilated, and only you came back safely?" ”

Qin Ming hurriedly explained: "My lord, Qin Ming was defeated and arrested, and he was caught up the mountain by those thieves, and he only escaped a few days ago. ”

Murong Yanda shouted: "Hmph, I still want to quibble." I heard that you Liangshan is 800 miles away, how can you escape from there alone. And why did someone report that your whole family was taken away by those thieves, it was obvious that you were afraid of death, and after being caught, you took refuge in the thieves. This time I came back to be the eyes and ears of those thieves, so that I could find out the news. ”

Qin Ming heard that his entire family had been taken away by the Liangshan thieves, and said in a panic: "My lord, you are wronged!" I, Qin Ming, am loyal to the imperial court, and I can show the sun and the moon. It's all Liangshan's tricks. I hope you will see it! ”

Murong Yanda snorted and shouted: "At this time, if you dare to quibble, it seems that you won't be able to recruit if you don't beat you." Someone will take this guy down for me! ”

The official immediately rushed up with a water and fire stick and grabbed Qin Ming.

When Qin Ming entered the state capital, the mace hung on the victory hook of the war horse.

What's more, he also fantasized that he could make a clear statement to Lord Murong and clear his innocence, and he was caught by the officials without much resistance.

Qin Ming thought too beautifully!

Not to mention the annihilation of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, this is too much of a crime!

This Qingzhou city was conquered by a gang of thieves, and all the materials in the treasury were robbed. Someone needs to bear this sin!

Is Murong Yanda willing to bear this sin?

Of course he didn't want to.

But someone must bear it, is there a better candidate to carry the black pot than Qin Ming, the main general of the army this time?

So no matter whether Qin Ming was wronged or not, Murong Yanda would not let him go, and he must make a death case and slander Qin Ming.

The official tied Qin Ming to the front of the hall, and Murong Yanda knocked the wooden hall and shouted: "Say, how did you join the bandits?" Hurry up and recruit from the truth! ”

Pressed to the ground by the officials, Qin Ming shouted: "My lord, I was wronged by the Liangshan thieves, and I didn't take refuge in the thieves!" Your Excellency is discerning! ”

Murong Yanda shouted: "It's still hard-mouthed, come on, call me!" ”

After three or four beatings in a row, Qin Ming's skin was rotten, and the blood flowed, but Qin Ming still refused to admit it.

Murong Yanda didn't let go when he saw Qin Ming's death, so he snorted and asked someone to take Qin Ming to the cell to take care of him.

That night, the cell boss drugged Qin Ming's food, and then while he was asleep, he put his handprint on the confession he had written early in the morning, and asked someone to imitate Qin Ming's handwriting and copy it.

A "hand-written" confession was thus released!

When Qin Ming was put in a cell, Shi Jin rushed to Hujiazhuang with people.

This time, he was going to bring Hu Sanniang back to Liangshan. If she dares or not, she will be tied up directly!
