The clouds rose again, the sky was full of snowflakes, and Liu Tang and San Ruan Wu knelt on the ground, crying and worshipping. Sanniang gently broke free from Chao Gai's cold big hand, gently closed her eyes for Chao Gai, and then let out a sigh of relief, the mist condensed and did not disperse, Sanniang took off her cloak, gently covered Chao Gai's body, and then stood up, stared at Chao Gai's corpse blankly, and said secretly in her heart: "Hu Lan, Hu Lan, he is a dying person, you can't lie to him?" Even if it's just a sentence, are you really like a stone? ”

The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became, I couldn't help but feel depressed, a mouthful of blood spurted out, Liu Tang was shocked, and he was about to step forward to take care of it, Sanniang raised his hand to stop, the bloodshot at the corner of his mouth did not go, so he raised the sky and roared, pulled out the sun and moon double knives on his waist, rubbed his body up, and the double knives flashed, and even broke the eighteen cedars on the top of the Jade Emperor, and he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Brother Tianwang's heroic spirit is not far away, Hu Lan made a heavy oath here, and he will take revenge on you!" ”

When Liu Tang and San Ruan heard this, they were all in their hearts, and said together: "This revenge will be avenged!" Sanniang turned around, wiped the bloodshot corners of her mouth, and ordered: "Four brothers, the king of heaven is gone, carry the king back." ”

Liu Tang and a group of minions got up groggily, carried the soft sedan chair according to Sanniang's instructions, Sanniang supported the sedan chair, and ordered a few fast-paced minions to go down the mountain to report the funeral first, and the group stepped on the broken jade Sanqiong step by step, and got off the top of the Jade Emperor.

Before arriving at the Deju Yi Hall, Song Jiang and the others had already received the murder letter, and they were all waiting outside the hall, and after seeing the body of Chao Gai coming down, Song Jiang rushed forward as if he was mourning, holding the soft sedan chair, and cried faintly. All the leaders fell to the ground, each weeping.

Sanniang first returned the big gift to Song Jiang and the leaders, and then got up and said loudly: "Before my husband died, I relied on the care of my brothers, and I thank my husband here." As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and Song Jiang's eyes widened and said: "Although the lady and the king of heaven have a marriage contract, but they have not yet completed the marriage, how can they call themselves a widow?" ”

Sanniang said slowly: "Shicai is in the house, and he has already been witnessed by the Tie Niu brothers, I have already told the Heavenly King, and I will definitely marry him." I, Hu Lan, will comb my hair and knot it later, and after the wedding ceremony, I will keep the festival for life! ”

Everyone was shocked, and Li Kui said: "The lady and the brother of the king of heaven said so. Hearing this, Hu Cheng stepped forward and said: "Little sister, you have thought carefully, King Chao Tianwang has gone to the immortal, although there is a marriage contract, but the marriage is not consummated, why do you want to be like this?" Won't you be a widow henceforth? ”

Sanniang's eyes were red, she looked around at the leaders, and immediately took out the knife on her waist, cut off a strand of hair, pinched the hair and said loudly: "My husband treated me like a mountain, he didn't bear me, I didn't live up to him, I Hu Sanniang kept his promise, and I married King Chao today to come." From now on, I will never marry another person for the rest of my life, and I will keep the festival for King Chao for the rest of my life! If you violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed! ”

When Qunhao heard this, his heart was full of joy, and Lin Chong was the first to stand up and say: "Okay, senior sister, you are loyal and loyal, senior brother admires you!" King Chao Tianwang made you the lord of Liangshan, and he really didn't see the wrong person! Later, I will hold a secret marriage, with the last wish of the king of the whole heaven! Then the group of heroes praised one after another, and they all admired Sanniang's integrity of keeping her promise and loyalty.

In the Song Dynasty, secret marriage was prevalent, but most of them were unmarried men and women who died before finding a match, and then buried together. But such a woman who marries in the dark is highly respected and respected, and even if there is any opponent, it is not easy to stop it.

When Song Jiang heard this, he was helpless, sorrow came from it, and he cried on the ground, Sanniang ordered Song Jiang to be helped up, and then said: "The first husband died, you should pay attention to the funeral of the first husband, please listen to my instructions." As soon as these words came out, the heroes all bowed down to receive the order, and there was no difference.

At that moment, Sanniang ordered to go down one by one, and first taught Liu Tang, Hu Cheng and a group of Hu family dependents, first carried Chao Gai's body into the house, bathed the corpse in fragrant soup, and Sanniang personally packed the clothes and towels and stopped at the Juyi Hall.

He also instructed Sanruan to supervise the construction, choose the inner coffin and the outer coffin, ask Gongsun Sheng to choose the auspicious time, put it in the main hall, ask the Song Qing Dynasty to build a spiritual cloth, set up a god in the middle, and invite the holy hand scholar Xiao Rang to write in his own hand: "Liangshan Bo Lord Tianwang Chao Gong God Lord."

He also taught the leaders of the cottages, from Hu Sanniang and below, to carry heavy filial piety; The small boss and the small minions also wore filial piety turbans, white flags, filial piety clothes, incense, candles, and paper money, all of which were done by Chai Jin, Pei Xuan, Jiang Jing and others.

Later, Gongsun Sheng and Lin Chong were invited to marry, Sanniang was dressed in white, hugged Chao Gai tablet, and came to the hall, so she finished the wedding ceremony according to the wedding festival. All the leaders came to watch the ceremony, and after watching it, they all respected Sanniang's righteousness, but there were also people who sighed and regretted.

Sanniang also looked for someone to find the poisonous arrow that shot Chao Gai, and led a group of leaders to swear in front of the spirit, determined to kill Shi Wengong to take revenge, after setting the oath, he offered the oath arrow in front of the spirit as a warning.

Sanniang also instructed Zhu Gui, Du Qian, and Song Wan to invite the monks of the temple under the mountain, and then make merit in the cottage and surpass the king of Chao. He only ordered Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Mu Hong, and Li Ying to lead the army and horses to patrol around Liangshan to prevent the officers and soldiers from attacking while the funeral was coming, and Li Jun, Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng led the naval army to respond around.

Then Sanniang instructed the whole village up and down, set up 7749 days of memorial day, the village raised a long flag, up and down are mourning, the monks will do things in front of the spirit, posthumously recommend Chao Tianwang. All the leaders came to mourn and sacrifice, and Sanniang, dressed in white clothes of heavy filial piety, replied as his wife in front of Chao Gailing.

Song Jiang was the first to come to mourn and sacrifice, after he finished worshipping there, Sanniang and Song Jiang returned a salute, Song Jiang wept and said: "Sister Xian, you can take care of the funeral of the king with peace of mind, and other major events in the cottage will be taken care of for your brother." ”

Sanniang has a white flower on her ears and temples, without powder, but her white clothes are more delicate, and she can hear Song Jiang's words, but she just said lightly: "The priest is the brother of the late husband, and the first husband is newly mourned. The rest of the cottage trivial matters can be handled by Mr. Gongsun, Senior Brother Lin and others. ”

Song Jiang frowned slightly when he heard this, and then said lightly: "Since Sister Xian said so, I will come in front of my brother's spirit tonight." Sanniang said: "Thank you for the high righteousness of the Oshi, it is really a blessing that the first husband has the brother of the Oshi." ”

Song Jiang arched his hand and said: "After I go back to the house and take care of some mundane things, I will come to guard the spirit." Sanniang replied: "Wait here for the priest." Then Song Jiang went first.

Then Wu Yong, Hua Rong, Dai Zong, Li Kui, Yan Shun, Zheng Tianshou, Wang Ying and others sacrificed together, and then followed Song Jiang. It's just that Wang Ying saw that Sanniang was dressed in white, and she was even more delicate, so she couldn't help but look at it twice, but then she secretly scolded herself for being a pig and a dog, she was already the wife of the king's brother, and she was still a newly widowed person, how could she have such a thought? At that moment, Wang Ying didn't dare to look at Sanniang anymore, so she lowered her head and walked quickly.

Then Gongsun Sheng, Luan Tingyu, Mu Hong and other leaders of the Hu family army also came to pay tribute one by one, after Sanniang replied, he instructed Gongsun Sheng and others to assist Lin Chong in taking care of the affairs of the cottage, and the Hu family army and horses were secretly on guard, only to prevent people with ulterior motives from taking advantage of the chaos to make trouble. Gongsun Sheng and the others all responded, and they all went.

After that, all the family members came to pay tribute, and Sanniang also answered the salute one by one. Lin Niangzi, the wife of Lin Chong, the wife of Hua Rong, the sister of Hua Rong, and the sister-in-law of Sun Xin, Gu Sister-in-law, all of them comforted Sanniang with kind words, and all the women praised Sanniang Day.

Yulian also came to offer sacrifices, but she took Sanniang's hand and cried in a low voice: "You don't plan to marry again in the future, is this the case?" Sanniang said: "This can save a lot of trouble, and it can fulfill the wish of the king, why not?" Yulian cried loudly, and Sanniang comforted her a few words before leaving.

The last to come was the relatives of the Hu family, the sister-in-law Shi Shi helped Hu Taigong to come to the spirit to sacrifice, Hu Taigong pulled Sanniang and wept and said: "Bitter my son, I don't want to be widowed before I get married." Sanniang comforted her father a few words, and Mrs. Hu couldn't help but whisper: "My son and Chao Dalang have been observing the festival for three years, and after three years, how about finding a reason to excuse and marry someone else?" ”

Sanniang shook her head and said, "Father, I have already made a poisonous oath, how can I be treacherous?" Since then, he has been alone and widowed, and he has no regrets. Taigong was so sad that he was speechless, shook his head and wept, and was supported by Shi's family.

Everyone offered sacrifices, but the front of the mourning hall was quiet, and at this time, Huang Wenbing arrived alone, and after offering sacrifices in front of the spirit, Sanniang stepped forward to answer. Huang Wenbing saluted again and said, "The Lord's Day mourns." Sanniang was slightly stunned and said, "Why do you call the lord?" Huang Wenbing said: "Now the lord is already the lord of Liangshan, and the general leader of Liangshan, Shaohua Mountain, and Erlong Mountain is no longer the lord of a village and a village, so he naturally wants to change his name to the lord." The great cause of the lord began when he lived in Yangsan. ”

Sanniang said: "Lord? That's a good name. After a pause, Sanniang's eyes flashed coldly and said, "How did I tell you to investigate?" Huang Wenbing said: "The Zheng Ying brothers have already gone to Jeju Mansion, if there is really someone in Liangshan who colludes with the official army and investigates the Jeju Mansion, they will definitely be able to gain something." ”

Sanniang said: "Okay, these **** will concentrate on handling this matter, and the military affairs of the Hu family will be handed over to Luan Tingyu first, I will find out who revealed the secrets and the official army, and who revealed the news of the king, so that Shi Wengong killed him!" Huang Wenbing arched his hand and said: "Xiao Ke must do his best to find out the truth." With that, he retired first.

But it was said that Song Jiang turned back into the house, Wu Yong, Hua Rong, Dai Zong and others all arrived, Song Jiang accessed, and after they sat down, Wu Yong said: "If the king passes on the throne and Hu Sanniang today, I will have no place to stand sooner or later, and I should find another way out." ”

Li Kui heard the words but said loudly: "The military advisor's words are not right, that Hu Niangzi is not a person who does not pay attention to righteousness, you see that she still kept her promise to marry him before the death of the king's brother, so you know that Hu Niangzi is a person who values love and righteousness." Wu Yong said: "Tie Niu is straightforward, and he was deceived by that woman. ”

Hua Rong had been silent, and then suddenly stood up and said, "Brother Gongming, military advisor, at this moment, the bones of the Heavenly King are not cold, how can we discuss the matter of departure?" I can't do this kind of unkindness and unrighteousness. After that, he arched his hand and said, "Xiao Ke will go back first." Then he raised his head and left.

When Wang Ying saw it, he also got up and arched his hand: "Strategist, it's really chilling for you to say such things at this moment, so I'll go first." With that, Wang Ying also got up and left.

Yan Shun and Zheng Tianshou were silent, but Dai Zong bowed his head and was silent, Li Kui was depressed, jumped up and said: "It's too aggrieved, I'll go down the mountain to find Shi Wengong for revenge!" With that, he left.

Song Jiang sighed and said, "All the brothers should go back first, and everything will be discussed after the Heavenly King's funeral." Yan Shun, Zheng Tianshou and the others got up and left. Dai Zong and Song Qing walked to the door, but were stopped by Song Jiang and Wu Yong.

Dai Zong and Song Qing turned around, and after Wu Yong covered the door, Song Jiang frowned and said, "Brother Dai Zong has not spoken, but he is still complaining about me?" Dai Zong raised his head at this time and said: "That night, I listened to my brother's instructions, and successively made the gods practice the law, and went back and forth to inquire about the news, but in the end I sent a letter to the Zeng family's military horses, and dared to ask my brother, but that letter killed Chao Tianwang?!" ”

Song Jiang and Wu Yong glanced at each other, and Wu Yong hurriedly said: "That letter just said where Hu Sanniang was, but I don't know how Shi Wengong had bad intentions, but instead went to set up an ambush, calculating that the brother of the king of heaven would come, it was not what we wanted." ”

Dai Zong sighed and said: "That's it, that's it, if this matter is really found out in the future, if you want me Dai Zong to fill in my life, I have nothing to say." Song Jiang hurriedly grabbed Dai Zong and said: "Dean Dai must not be discouraged, if this matter is found out, Song will bear it, but remember not to mention it to others, if you say it to others, Song will go to fill in the life for the dean." ”

When Dai Zong heard this, he said: "I won't involve my brother." Then he gave up and went. Wu Yong watched Dai Zong leave, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Brother, this person is only afraid that he is not reliable, why don't you start to kill him?" Song Qing on the side was stunned when he heard this, and the teacup in his hand fell and shattered. (To be continued.) )
