Chapter 0008: Carrots and Sticks

The gray Dulonggang was covered with a layer of white moonlight, without a shadow of activity, and there was a terrible dead silence, covering the sky of Zhujiazhuang. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 The hall where the guests of Zhujiazhuang was brightly lit, and a person was pacing restlessly back and forth in the center of the hall. This person is none other than Hu Cheng, the young owner of Hujiazhuang. Hu Cheng is twenty-three years old this year, with a fat face and a few loose beards, without the tiger spirit of the Flying Tiger.

At this time, Zhu Biao slowly walked in from outside the hall, saw Hu Cheng, and arched his hand: "Brother Hu Cheng, how are you doing lately?" ā€

"Oh, it turned out to be Brother Zhu Biaoxian." Hu Cheng looked behind Zhu Biao and asked, "Why don't you see the two brothers of Chaofeng and Zhu Biao?" ā€

"Oh, that's right," Zhu Biao said: "My father feels uncomfortable these days, and he has already fallen asleep, and now the Liangshan thief Kou has set up camp not far from Zhuang, the second brother is inspecting the sentry, and the eldest brother is counting the grain and grass." ā€

"That'...... Then the foolish brother will tell you this. Hu Cheng looked a little embarrassed and said: "Brother Xian, I wonder if you can send two leaders of Liangshan thieves to my Hujiazhuang, how about it?" ā€

Zhu Biao knew what Hu Cheng's intention was to ask for two Liangshan bandit leaders, and he asked knowingly: "I don't know what my brother wants the two leaders of Liangshan bandits to do?" ā€

"It's not that I want to change back to Sanniang."

Zhu Biao said: "Brother, don't worry, now that I Zhujiazhuang has captured so many Liangshan bandit leaders, the younger brother will naturally try his best to save Sanniang, but-" Zhu Biao glanced at Hu Cheng, and then said: "I just hope that my brother will not eat inside and out, and collude with Liangshan bandits." ā€

When Hu Cheng heard this, his body shook as if he had been shocked, but he still gritted his teeth and asked, "Xian...... What is this saying? ā€

Zhu Biao didn't say much, and directly took out the copy of Hujiazhuang given to him by Song Jiang from his arms to communicate with Liangshan, and promised to hand it to Hu Cheng without moving. Hu Cheng didn't need to read it to know what was written on it, and when Zhu Biao took out the letter, Hu Cheng's face was as pale as the moon hanging in mid-air. He looked at Zhu Biao, his right hand trembled slightly to pick it up, of course Zhu Biao would not give it to him, and then took the letter back, and said: "Brother, rest assured, whether this letter is true or false, the younger brother will not take this letter to sue the official, no matter what, the younger brother I deeply admire Sanniang, and besides, let's wish the family village, you Hu Jiazhuang, that is the same on the outside, one loss and one glory." Brother, do you say yes or no? ā€

Hu Cheng looked at Zhu Biao, his mouth moved, and he didn't know what to say. It's true, my ugliness has been exposed by others, what can I say? Zhu Biao said: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely try my best to rescue Sanniang, but-" Zhu Biao smiled coldly: "It's just that my brother must not collude with the Liangshan thieves." ā€

"This ......"

Zhu Biao patted Hu Cheng's shoulder and said slowly: "This collusion with thieves is a felony of the nine clans, once Sanniang enters the door of our Zhujiazhuang, our Zhujia family will inevitably be implicated." Brother, don't act rashly! ā€

Hu Cheng listened to Zhu Biao's words, and looked at Zhu Biao again, as if he didn't know the Zhu Biao in front of him - is this still the same gentleman who only knew how to fight bravely and ruthlessly in the past?

Dividing line ********

Since the housekeeper grimaced Du Xing went to Dongping Mansion to meet the duke of the play, Li Ying's heart was like fifteen buckets of water - seven up and eight down, he didn't know if Du Xing could stabilize which duke of the play, and how did the Liangshan army and Zhujiazhuang, who were still in the dark, suddenly stop fighting in the past few days? Because Du Xing went to Dongping Mansion first, he kept thinking about whether to send someone to Liangshanjun to inquire about the news, but then he thought about it again, no, not to mention whether the person sent can see Song Jiang's face, even if he can see Song Jiang's face, then this person knows too much, if he reports to the official...... Thinking of this, Li Ying dismissed the plan to send another person to the Liangshan military camp, and was ready to wait for Du Xing to come back.

However, it was not Ducheng who was waiting, but the Jeju prefect.

As soon as the Jeju prefect entered Lijiazhuang, he asked about Yangsan's attack on Zhujiazhuang: "Li Ying! Zhujiazhuang sued you for colluding with Liangshan thieves to attack Zhujiazhuang, and also accused you of receiving Liangshan's bonus dowry, yes or no? ā€

Li Ying hurriedly defended: "The prefect is the minister, the prefect is the minister, the villain does not dare to collude with the Liangshan thieves, and there is no such thing as receiving Liangshan's bonus dowry!" ā€

"No?" The prefect of Jeju said coldly: "Then why did you not move when the Liangshan thieves attacked Zhujiazhuang?" ā€

Li Ying pointed to his hanging arm and said, "The villain is closed because of his injuries, so I don't know the details." ā€

"Fart!" The prefect of Jeju was furious and shouted: "Someone! Li Ying colluded with the Liangshan thieves to loot Zhujiazhuang, and Yu Benguan took it! ā€

A group of officials rushed up, and without waiting for Li Ying to justify, they tied him up. This group of officials packed all the goods of Li Jiazhuang, and tied up all the family members of the Li family, and headed for Jeju.

The Jeju prefect escorted a group of Li Ying's family away from Lijiazhuang, and only walked thirty miles, when a pair of people and horses collided in the woods, waving the banner of Yangsan, blocking the way. The first leaders were Shi Yu Song Jiang, leopard head Lin Chong and Xiao Li Guanghuarong.

Lin Chong stretched out the snake spear in his hand and shouted: "Come and one who is not afraid of death!" ā€

The Jeju governor trembled and said, "This ...... This Li Ying really colluded with the Liangshan thieves! After that, he left Li Ying, Li Ying's family and Li Jiazhuang's belongings, scattered in a hurry, and fled for their lives.

Song Jiang personally untied Li Ying and said, "Big official, why don't you go to Liangshan for temporary refuge?" ā€

Although Li Ying and Liang Shan were eyebrow-to-eye, how could he be willing to give up the life of a big official who was the lord of the village, so he said: "The little brother can't go, this is ...... You have robbed this prefect, what do you have to do with me? ā€

Song Jiang smiled coldly and said, "Great official, how can you explain it so far?" Why don't you go to the mountains for a while and come back when the wind is calm? ā€

Li Ying thought about it, and had no choice but to do so.

Song Jiang returned to the barracks to continue the confrontation with Zhujiazhuang, and Lin Chonghuarong escorted Li Ying's family to Liangshan. On Liangshan, Chao Gai welcomed Li Ying and his party into the Juyi Hall, and then informed Li Ying that the group of people in the prefect's mansion were dressed up by Dai Zong, a sacred scholar, Jin Dajian, a jade arm craftsman, Pei Xuan, an iron-faced face, and Hou Jian, a gibbon. Now, Li Ying knew that this thief ship was good or bad, so he had no choice but to appoint it.
