Chapter 518 Returning to his hometown, the scenery is desolate
In the past, Song Jiang would ask useless opinions before making a decision, not only to be safe, but also to save face for Wu. Over the years, it's the only time I haven't asked Wu Yong, I really feel that there is nothing to worry about, isn't it just to receive food, who is not going? Song Jiang was not worried, but Wu Yong frowned, of course he was not dissatisfied with Song Jiang, but he just let Wang Ying go so hastily, is it a little inappropriate? Although Wang Ying, like Hua Rong and Li Kui, is Brother Song's confidant, to be honest, Wu Yong really has no confidence in Wang Ying's ability, this person seems to be like his life, full of gangsterism, if he goes to Yizhou, who can guarantee that he will not do something out of the ordinary? deliberately didn't want Wang Ying to go down the mountain, but now that Brother Song has spoken, it is not appropriate to dissuade him, first of all, Brother Song will not be able to get over his face. Don't look at Song Jiang as a kind person, good as a stream, but Wu Yongke knows Song Jiang's personality very well, if he dissuades him, Song Jiang will definitely listen, and he will say "What the military advisor said makes sense", but in this heart, hehe, eighty percent of them have to hold a grudge.
"Brother, the leader of the king will go down the mountain alone, I am afraid that there will be no details in case of trouble, it is better to send someone to help the leader of the king, someone will accompany you, and you will take care of each other, and you can discuss it if something happens" Wu Yong said this, and he also tactfully dissuaded Song Jiang. Song Jiang only reacted at this time, receiving grain is a big deal, how could he make a hasty decision to let Wang Ying's brothers go. If this Wang Ying brother is guilty. Isn't it a mistake? glanced at Wu Yong apologetically. Song Jiang suddenly had a scheming in his heart, he pondered for a moment, glanced at the leaders in the hall, and said slowly, "Boss Guan, please accompany Brother Wang down the mountain." ā
The leader of the Guan in Song Jiangkou's mouth is a great man, and his name is Guan Sheng. The word is long, he is a descendant of Guan Yu of the Three Kingdoms, and he is good at making a family heirloom Qinglong Yanyue knife. Guan Sheng was born in the army, he was a stable person, and he was sent as a deputy, but he was actually the main general. Of course, Wang Ying also has a lot of complaints about this, his brother can't believe him, and he sends Guan Sheng's stuffy gourd.
[Author: Guan Sheng's prototype, a general under Liu Yu, the prefect of Qizhou (Jinan) in the late Northern Song Dynasty. After the Jin soldiers went south, Liu Yu was afraid. Want to cut the money. However, the general Guan Sheng was loyal and brave, and his martial arts were extraordinary, and Liu Yu was deeply afraid of Guan Sheng's prestige, so he took the opportunity of the banquet to poison Guan Sheng. After Guan Sheng's death, the war horse neighed non-stop. In the later generations, the Ma Pao Spring next to the Li Qingzhao Memorial Hall in Jinan Baotu Spring is to commemorate Guan Sheng, if you want to travel to Jinan, you can go to see it, personal construction yƬ go to Jinan, but also go to Zhangqiu, Jinan scenery, in addition to Baotu Spring, Daming Lake, mostly in Jinan. ć
Song Jiang has an order, and Guan Sheng obeys everything. After everything is arranged, I am waiting for news from Ximenqing. Song Jiang was ready to receive grain, while Zhao Yougong, who was far away in Qizhou Mansion, was practicing calligraphy in a hurry. The Lord of Cheshire can say that His Royal Highness Zhao has no understanding of martial arts, but in fact, because of the excessive killing, there is too much fierceness, and he should practice calligraphy to sharpen his spirit. Regardless of whether the Cheshire Lord is talking nonsense, or whether he believes the Cheshire Lord's nonsense or not, anyway, His Royal Highness Zhao really practiced calligraphy, he is not joking, he hid in the prefect's yamen for two days, accompanied by Sanniang and Ah Jiu, as for the wooden woman, she naturally didn't have the heart to watch His Royal Highness Zhao practice calligraphy.
Seeing that His Royal Highness Zhao wrote seriously, Ah Jiu pouted, reached out and poked His Royal Highness Zhao's waist and eyes, and then raised his hands and fell, making a gesture. Zhao Yougong can be seen that Xiao Jiu is angry, as for who is angry, who else can it be except for the hateful Lord Cheshire?
Put down the brush, rubbed the ink stains of his fingers on Ah Jiu's white little face, raised his eyebrows and squeezed his eyes, "Okay, don't compare, do you really think that this king practices calligraphy because of a few nonsense words from that woman, you are usually quite ghostly, why are you so stupid now?" ā
Ah Jiu hated His Royal Highness Zhao pinching her face the most, pouted and stretched out his little hand to his forehead, and turned his feet upside down, Zhao Yougong suddenly laughed, looked at Ah Jiu in green clothes and crooked hat in front of him, hugged his arm and said, "Sanniang, do you see, our little Jiu has grown up." ā
Sanniang just smiled and didn't answer, but the smile in her eyes couldn't be hidden. was looked at directly, Ah Jiu was not shy, just stared back with beautiful big eyes, at this time she was charming and cute, and had a bit of a manly spirit. What a good girl, like an angel, the only pity is that she is mute.
After teasing Ah Jiu for a while, there were footsteps outside the courtyard, and listening to the gentle steps, I thought it was the Lord of Cheshire who had come to sprinkle again. After a while, I found out that the person who came turned out to be Mei Jian. Seeing Mei Jian, Sanniang couldn't help frowning, since Mei Jian is here, compared to the people in the dark hall, she has already entered Jingdong Road, why is it such a big thing, but she doesn't know at all, His Royal Highness intends to hide it from her?
Mei Jian bowed and saluted, and said heroically, "Your Highness, there are many suspicious characters who have entered Qizhou Mansion a few days ago, and it seems that they are from the rivers and lakes. ā
People in the rivers and lakes? Zhao Yougong is really a little puzzled, now that the official army and the Liangshan thieves are facing Jingdong Road, why do those Jianghu characters go to Qizhou Mansion to be mercenaries for the imperial court? It's a pity that there are no mercenaries in the Great Song Dynasty. After thinking about it, Zhao Yougong replied, "Just let people keep an eye on it, as long as these people don't mess around, don't care." What happened to what this king asked you to check, do you have eyebrows? ā
"Back to His Royal Highness, his subordinates and Cui Niangzi released all their hands, and they inquired in many ways, only to find out that Hu Cheng seems to have fled to the north, as for where he went, I don't know."
Hu Cheng? Hearing this name, Hu Sanniang's mind was filled with something, but he misunderstood His Highness, and he secretly entered Jingdong Road in the secret hall, which turned out to be to find the elder brother. When she looked at Zhao Yougong again, Sanniang's eyes were full of affection, but the more she was like this, the more she felt that she was not worthy of him.
didn't find Hu Cheng, Zhao Yougong was also a little depressed, where did Hu Cheng hide, but there was no news for several years. I admire this uncle who has never met before, and he can hide so tightly, he can be regarded as a capable person. I wanted to surprise Sanniang. It's good now. Surprise no. On the contrary, it added a little melancholy.
Holding Sanniang's shoulder, he comforted softly, "Sanniang, don't worry, as long as my brother is alive, I will definitely be able to find him." ā
"Hmm!"
Although she nodded, Sanniang didn't have much hope in her heart. In the evening, Yang Zaixing sent someone to report. It is said that Liangshan Song Jiang has sent people down the mountain to Yizhou to receive grain. Hearing the news, Zhao Youcong frowned. For a long time, Zhao Yougong never thought about exterminating Liangshan, and he also never thought about recruiting Liangshan. Destroy Liangshan, let the imperial court deal with Fang La and Tian Hu empty-handed, and when the world is decided, Zhao Guan's family will have to deal with Guanzhong. Therefore, for the sake of himself, he has to keep Liangshan, not to exterminate it, but he can't recruit peace. The people in Liangshan are uneven, so they can only choose the best ones to use. All recruits, he Zhao doesn't have the heart to do ideological education for these people, not to mention, can Li Kui, Wang Ying, Sun Xin and others be educated?
Song Jiang sent people down the mountain to receive grain, far away from Liangshan Shuibo, and he Zhao someone could make a surprise attack to capture the people who went down the mountain. Wait to catch these people, threaten them with their lives, threaten Song Xijin and Zhang Shuye's army to fight hard, and wait for the two sides to fight almost, he Zhao is picking up the mess, and when the time comes, the people who should collect it will be collected, and those who don't want to be collected will be put back to Liangshan Shuibo to continue to fight against the court, isn't it beautiful?
Zhao Yougong's idea was not bad, but as soon as he heard the name of the person who went down the mountain, he hesitated in his heart. Wang Ying, I didn't expect Song Jiang to let Wang Ying go down the mountain to receive food, feeling the cold air emanating from Sanniang's body, you can imagine how much Sanniang wanted to kill Wang Ying. The first time, Sanniang didn't ask Zhao Yougong, she turned around and walked out of the courtyard, and then with a neigh, she deliberately ran out of the prefect's yamen. Sanniang is going back to Yizhou, Zhao Yougong smiled bitterly, cleaned up his mood, took the Qin Wang knife and led more than a dozen guards to rush there.
On March 27 of the fourth year of Xuanhe, because Zhang Shuye's army was blocked in the west and grain could not be transported in, Song Jiang got the convenience of the officials of the West Gate of Yanggu County to transport grain from Haizhou, and the first batch of grain also arrived in Fei County, Yizhou at the end of the 27th. On this day, Wang Ying and Guan Sheng led the Liangshan soldiers and horses to Maoyang Town, fifty miles northwest of Fei County. At this time, Zhao Yougong also led the guards to accompany Sanniang to a Zhuangzi. This Zhuangzi is out of the poplar forest, about fifteen miles away from Fei County, although the courtyard wall of the Zhuangzi is dilapidated, but you can still see the prosperous scene of this Zhuangzi in the past. Looking at Zhuangzi in front of her, Sanniang's eyes were moist and she almost choked.
Hujiazhuang, after a lapse of five years, returned to this place, but there were no relatives and friends, the place where he used to play became a ruined wall, there was no laughter in the village, and some were just twilight and death. Back then, Li Kui slaughtered Hujiazhuang, but did not kill all the people in the village, waiting for the Liangshan soldiers and horses to withdraw, and those who survived returned to the river, but Zhuangzi was destroyed, and it was no longer possible to restore the prosperity of the past. Playing horses and walking on the dirt roads in the countryside, I didn't see a single child playing and frolicking, and there were occasional pedestrians, also in their fifties. Those people lowered their heads, not caring at all about the passing horse team, seeing this scene, Sanniang was not distressed.
Zhao Yougong suddenly understood why Sanniang was so obsessed with revenge, who could let go of the qiÄ in his heart, especially the tragedy that his former homeland had suffered.
There is a tomb in the west of Hujiazhuang, where the grass is overgrown and the greenery is full, but you can't feel the slightest vitality. I don't know who got the grave bag, Sanniang didn't count the graves, she knew that her family must be lying in these grave bags. Turning over and dismounting, Sanniang knelt on the ground, no crying, but her body trembled slightly, Sanniang's fingers dug into the soil, and there were sand and stones scraping the skin, but she didn't realize it.
"Is it the third lady, is it you?" An old man staggered over, maybe everyone paid too much attention to Sanniang, and didn't even notice when this old man walked to the grave.
The old man had gray hair, was not tall, thin, and his eyes were pinched inward. Hearing the sound of Sanniang, Sanniang turned her head and looked at the old man not far away in disbelief, she rubbed her eyes, saw the appearance of the person who came, got up from the ground, and ran over quickly, "Fourth uncle, fourth uncle"
The old man's name is Hu Jiang, and he is the fourth in the clan, so they all call him the fourth uncle. Now seeing her relatives, how can Sanniang not be happy, she looked at Hu Jiang, full of joy, "Fourth uncle, you weren't you back then."
Seeing his niece, Hu Jiang was already in tears, he took Sanniang's hand, and said tremblingly, "The old man is dying, but he is lame, but you and Uncle Ah Cheng heard that you married that Wang Ying, but is it true?" ā
The last thing Sanniang wanted to mention was this matter, in the face of the elders, she didn't dare to deceive, so she could only nod with a cold face. Hu Jiang watched Hu Sanniang grow up, and he couldn't be more clear about this niece's temperament, serving the thief with his body and waiting for the opportunity to take revenge, this is the happiness that ruined his life. Hu Jiang never thought that Sanniang would be afraid of death, if this niece would ignore the blood and hatred, greedy for life and afraid of death, she would not be called "heroic over Mu Guiying".
"Third lady, I've been bitter for you, where have you been all these years? The old man has been waiting for so many years, and he has been looking forward to you and Ah Cheng coming back, but" Speaking of this, Hu Jiang shook his head, seeing this situation, Zhao Yougong couldn't help but feel bitter, it seems that Hu Jiang doesn't know Hu Cheng's whereabouts.
That night, everyone rested in Hujiazhuang, and it was not until this time that Hu Jiang learned the identity of Zhao Yougong, and when he learned about Hu Jiang, he immediately knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, "Your Highness, I heard that you are like a god with soldiers, brave and extraordinary, please, be the master of my Hu family." ā
Let Sanniang help Hu Jiang and say a few words, Zhao Yougong said a few words, which can be regarded as appeasing Hu Jiang excitedly, but from beginning to end, Zhao Yougong didn't say anything substantial. Sanniang can't blame Zhao Yougong, because from Zhao Yougong's point of view, everything he does is for the great cause of Guanzhong World. But Sanniang, she is just a little woman, even if she is heroic and sassy, she has no eyebrows, that heart still belongs to a little woman, she doesn't care about any great cause, she only cares about that hatred, even if His Royal Highness stops it, she will kill Wang Ying, Wang Ying will not die, she will always live in a nightmare.
