When Hu Sanniang and Gongsun Sheng packed up their packages and went down the mountain, Liu Tang was about to follow, but was stopped by Sanniang, pulled him aside and whispered: "Brother Liu Tang and help my senior brother in the cottage, even if there is no such trip, my husband and I will have important things to go south after a while." ”

Liu Tang said: "Officials don't want to be angry with Brother Tianwang, if you are not angry, just come and compete with me, Liu Tang can stand it." ”

Sanniang smiled and said, "I know the benefits of Brother Liu Tang, and I won't forget you." The king of heaven is all good, but he looks down on women too much, and I can't tolerate two tigers with him, and you will know in the future. You don't need to ask more now, just stay and help my senior brother Lin Jiaotou, and when I finish my work, I will come to look for you." You have to be careful when you are in the cottage, there are villains in the village, and you must also teach Brother Baozheng to be careful. With you and Senior Brother Lin here, we can leave with confidence. Liu Tang just responded, so he stayed in the cottage.

When Sanniang and Gongsun Sheng were about to leave, Liu Tang and a group of leaders came to see each other, and when they arrived at the gate, they saw Sanruan and Wu Yong leading Du Qian, Song Wan and other big and small leaders to come. It was all a persuasion, but Sanniang insisted on going down the mountain, and everyone couldn't stay, so they had to be sent to the golden beach together, and Sanniang and Gongsun Sheng boarded the boat and left.

However, it was said that Liu Tang turned back to the village sullenly, and when Sanruan invited him to eat and drink to relieve his boredom, Liu Tang did not go. After going around and around alone to Juyi Hall, but seeing Chao Gai also standing there alone, Liu Tang turned his head and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Chao Gai and said: "Brother Liu Tang stays, I have something to say." ”

Liu Tang stood still, Chao Gai stepped forward and said, "I also said that you will go down the mountain with Hu Guanren." Liu Tang said: "I wanted to go together, but the official said that there were villains in the village, and taught me and Lin Jiaotou to stay and take care of the cottage and help you, so I stayed." ”

Chao Gai's heart was hot, and he remembered all the benefits of Sanniang, and said: "The official really said that? I didn't think that the official was leaving, and I still cared about it. Liu Tang nodded and said: "Exactly, Baozheng, what's wrong with the official, do you want to be angry with him?" Chao Gai sighed and said, "You don't understand, since you stayed, you are also my good brother Chao." Liu Tang hung his head and said: "It's a pity, at that time, nine people gathered to rob the Birth Gang, and now there are two, and the life and death of the Bai Sheng brothers are still uncertain." ”

Chao Gai listened to Liu Tang's words, and his heart was also unhappy, and he remembered Bai Sheng's matter again, and said immediately: "Brother Liu Tang, please invite the military advisor and the leaders to come, and everyone will discuss a way to save Brother Bai Sheng." When Liu Tang heard this, he cheered up a little and walked quickly.

When he was young, a group of leaders gathered in the Juyi Hall, and General Chao Gai was going to say, Wu Yong said: "It's not difficult to save Brother Bai Sheng, just wait for that case to slow down, make more money, and after you make a little bit up and down, you can hook him out." ”

Chao Gai said: "The military advisor's words are inappropriate, I heard from He Tao's mouth earlier, Brother Bai Sheng did not intend to betray us, but he was quick to be a public, and he saw the clues from Chao Mou, the official government was treacherous, and he deceived him with words, so he confessed to me." Listening to He Tao's words, the Bai Sheng brothers were beaten several times in prison, but they never confessed, and they were also tough guys. It's just that 14 lives were killed and injured in that case, and I am afraid that the government will not be able to get us, so the Bai Sheng brothers will be dealt with strictly, but I can't wait. ”

Liu Tang also said: "Exactly, I am waiting here, but Brother Bai Sheng is in prison, and he can't say anything." Wu Yong pondered for a moment and said: "Since this is the case, we need to send fine people to enter the Jeju Mansion first to listen to the news, and then the camera can rescue you." Chao Gai bowed his head and said: "What the military advisor is concerned about is that in this case, I and the three brothers Liu Tang, Du Qian, and Song Wan, with twenty capable people, pretend to be merchants, and go to Jeju Mansion to inquire about the news. ”

Wu Yong was shocked when he heard this: "My brother is the head of a village, how can he move lightly? Liu Tang also said: "Yes, Brother Tianwang is at ease in the cottage, and I will lead Du Qian and Song Wan away." Chao Gai said: "I have the most important righteousness in my life, when nine people gathered to rob the birth gang, and now there are two, and the life and death of the Bai Sheng brothers are still uncertain, and they will save the Bai Sheng brothers after fighting this life, you don't have to persuade again!" ”

The leaders couldn't persuade him, Chao Gai picked up Liu Tang, Du Qian, Song Wan, and 20 capable minions, pretending to be ordinary merchants, each hiding his blade, taking some self-produced fruits in the village, loading more than ten carts, and having a full meal that day, he took the road to look at Jeju Mansion and left.

But it was said that Sanniang and Gongsun Sheng left Liangshan, and on the way, Sanniang suddenly said: "Sir, there is one more thing that needs to be done before you can go south." Gongsun Sheng said: "But what about rescuing Bai Sheng's brothers?" Sanniang bowed her head and said: "Exactly, Brother Bai Sheng is also a tough guy, this trip is not that he intends to betray, but the eyes of the public are quick, and he can see the clues from Chao Gai, the government is treacherous, and he deceives him with words, so he confessed to me." Listening to He Tao's words, the Bai Sheng brothers were beaten several times in prison, but they never confessed, our big case, the government must be vicious in torture, he can endure like this, and he is also a tough guy. If you don't save him, the rivers and lakes will laugh at me if they know about it. ”

Gongsun Shengqi said: "In this matter, it is the beginning and end of Chao Gai, Bai Sheng brother is a member of him, and it is also because he was seen that he was imprisoned, now that the two of us have left Liangshan, why do you want to do such a thing?" ”

Sanniang was speechless for a long time when she heard this, and only said after a while: "In that big case, I killed 14 people, and the government will definitely not let go of Brother Bai Sheng, and I should also be responsible for this matter." I ambushed a dark chess piece with He Tao, just thinking about saving Brother Bai Sheng in the future, and now He Tao's antidote, confession, and affidavit are all here, if I don't save him, I will also waste some arrangements. ”

Gongsun Sheng smiled slightly: "In that case, the two of us will go to Jeju Mansion for a walk." At the moment, the two went to Jeju Prefecture to govern Juye County, and within a day they arrived in Juye County, and they saw that Chao Gai, Hu Sanniang, Gongsun Sheng and others were posted everywhere to draw pictures and inquire. Sanniang frowned and said to Gongsun Sheng: "Sir, my two paintings are conspicuous, if you don't disguise, I'm afraid that you won't be able to enter the city. ”

Gongsun Sheng bowed his head and said: "Poor Dao is also about to talk about this, why don't the officials change back to women's clothes, and Poor Dao pretends to be a steward, and then invites twenty or thirty servants and miscellaneous servants left and right, hires a big car and invites officials to sit, how about just being a rich merchant in Jiangnan and returning to his hometown?" ”

Sanniang said with a smile: "Mr. is calculating, let's simply swagger into this Jeju Mansion." After the two discussed, they changed their outfits in a remote place, Hu Sanniang dressed as the daughter of a rich family, Gongsun Sheng pretended to be a housekeeper among the writers, so Qian hired two mule carts in a town, and invited more than 20 servants to accompany him, and went to Jeju Mansion in a mighty way.

On the way, Gongsun Sheng and Sanniang suddenly talked about something, and Gongsun Sheng said: "Official, poor Dao asked the official to change into women's clothes, and there is another meaning." Sanniang smiled slightly and said: "I also know what Mr. said, does Mr. want me to show my true face in the future?" ”

Gongsun Sheng said: "It is this meaning, Liang Shan has already seen in the matter, Wu Yong is using the identity of the official suddenly became difficult, the official is too handsome, and the posture is increasingly unable to hide, men's clothing can be deceived for a while when the fashion is first seen, if you get along for a long time, the fine people will see the clues sooner or later." Friendship between heroes is important in heart-to-heart, if we are deliberately deceived in this point of identity, it seems that we are not righteous. ”

Sanniang said: "These **** are also thinking about this matter carefully, if they talked about their identity with Chao Baozheng early in the morning, they would not have given birth to many things." After a pause, Sanniang said: "But if I said my identity early in the morning, I am afraid that I would not want to make friends with my female stream." ”

Gongsun Sheng said with a smile: "At this time, the officials can rest assured, the rivers and lakes respect the strong, make friends with good men, only look at righteousness, if the official means are clever, and when the righteous and squandered money, others will not scruple about their identity, if the official does not believe it, this way, all do women's clothing, if you meet a good man, you will make friends with it as a woman, and then you will see." Sanniang remembered that she had intersected with Li Ying, the sky-fighting eagle, and she also dealt with her as a woman, so Li Ying did not underestimate her, so she responded with a smile: "As long as they are not all women like Chao Baozheng." ”

Gongsun Sheng twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Official, are you really the Dao Heavenly King who underestimates the identity of the official's woman?" Sanniangqi said: "Isn't it?" The left is a woman, and the right is a woman after all, but she looks down on people. ”

Gongsun Sheng said: "The king of heaven is a person who is arrogant, righteous and wealthy, and treats his brothers like siblings, but for the officials, the king of heaven has another thought, which is to love and protect him sooner or later." If it is really a triage of officials, why do they listen to the orders of officials in all aspects of cottage affairs, and there is nothing to say? ”

Sanniang was speechless, and asked after a while, "What are you thinking?" Gongsun Sheng smiled and said, "The official understands it himself." Sanniang remembered it, but she didn't know the essentials.

Talking has arrived at the gate of the city, a group of people who do the public came forward to check, Sanniang is a beautiful and rich daughter dressed, Gongsun Sheng is dressed as a housekeeper, when he asked, only do the rich merchants of Jeju Prefecture to return to their hometowns to answer, the public to see through the wealth, the style is extraordinary, and there is no doubt about him, but also Gongsun Sheng to make some scattered silver to send away, you have to hook into the city.

When you arrive in the city, you will first find a homely inn to stay, this inn is the largest inn in Jeju Prefecture, called Wangjia Inn, with three entrances and three exits inside and outside, and there are always more than 100 guest rooms before and after.

Entering the store, I saw that the store was full of friends, the guests were like clouds, the windows were bright and clean, whitewashed, the three courtyards were planted with osmanthus trees, it was already the weather in October, the osmanthus flowers in the garden were in full bloom, the autumn breeze was sent, the inn was full of fragrance. Sanniang saw it and immediately clapped her hands: "It's a good place to end." ”

The two asked for two head rooms to live in, and the twenty or so servants lived in the bunks in the ear room in the backyard. After staying, the two discussed, and it was inconvenient for Sanniang to come forward, so Gongsun Sheng first went to Zuo Jin Tea Shop to inquire about the news, and then went to find He Tao to speak.

After Gongsun Sheng went, Sanniang had to wait in the house, just waiting for a sullen breath, at the end of the afternoon, Gongsun Sheng had not come back, but he could hear a noisy sound downstairs. Sanniang followed the sound from the small building downstairs, only to see two people at the entrance of the building to enter the store, the first one of them said in a loud voice: "Shop, I want two head rooms, there are still twenty companions to live in the store, quickly row down!" ”

As soon as Sanniang heard the accent, she looked at the person again, and immediately recognized it, who was this person not the red-haired ghost Liu Tang? When he looked at the person behind him again, he was suddenly taken aback, who was the person behind Liu Tang who was not Chao Gai?
