Chapter 75: Entering the Village

Sun Li's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Senior brother, what do you mean by ......?"

Luan Tingyu sighed: "Brother, if Liangshan is Song Jiang's first-class goods, I don't have to worry!" Why? Song Jiang and his people, after all, are born as small officials, and they can't make big things, you see that he is new to Liangshan, and he made a move to occupy the salt road, you can see that his vision is short-sighted, it is difficult to get rid of the habits of officialdom, although his reputation is big, there is no need to worry - but there is another person in Liangshan, that is, Qinghe Ximenqing! ”

Sun Li nodded and said, "The name of the Three Qi Princes is very popular, and I heard his name when I was in Dengzhou—so what?" ”

Luan Tingyu said: "Since I met that Sanqi son, I couldn't help but be secretly shocked by his demeanor and bearing, and after sending someone to secretly inquire about what he did, I was even more shocked in my heart. Since the four springs of Ximen have been on Liangshan, they have gathered displaced people and reclaimed wasteland, and the government around Liangshan has been used by him with both soft and hard, and he does not dare to move slightly; He also opened up trade routes, accumulated grass and grain, and merchants on the two roads of Jingdong were happy to use them - how could such a person be regarded as a bandit? ”

Sun Li said slowly: "Senior brother means ......"

Luan Tingyu raised his fingers: "His person is known as the reincarnation of the celestial star, and it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people; The blood of his people splashed Mengzhou City, which shows the decision to kill, two also; His people are resourceful, far better than Liangshan's nominal military advisors, Wu Yong, and Sanye; His people are good at raising soldiers, and the soldiers he trains are very sharp, and he is also four; The private salt meeting, its manpower turned the tide, rejecting the green forest arrows of the two leaders of Liangshan, Chao Gai and Song Jiang, who dominated the salt road, how can anyone without self-confidence do so? Five also - wisdom, faith, benevolence, bravery, strictness, so that the five virtues of the people, can only rely on the aid and not the enemy, now this Zhujiazhuang but with him to fight, I am afraid that the consequences are very bad! ”

Hu Taigong was dumbfounded when he heard it next to him, and Sun Li muttered: "I didn't expect that there are thieves in this Liangshan!" ”

Luan Tingyu nodded and said: "Brother, he has always been secretive, but if he tries it, I don't know who can handle it?" Now that you live in Yunzhou, this Ximenqing must be your hard opponent! ”

Sun Li raised his glass and drank it all, and said with a smile: "In the governor's mansion, there must be my Sun Li's hard opponent, so I was transferred to this Yunzhou and killed people with the knife of Ximen Qing." The matter has come to this point, and the soldiers have to block it, and the water will cover it! Senior brother, since this Ximen Qing is so good, do you have a clever plan to overcome it? ”

Luan Tingyu said dejectedly: "What plan do I have? I'm in Zhujiazhuang, and I'm just a gun leader! It's like the god offered in the temple, it's just beautiful to put on it, but it's useless! ”

Sun Li said: "Don't talk about Zhujiazhuang, just talk about the younger brother." Now that the younger brother is in charge of Yunzhou, doesn't the senior brother teach the younger brother some reason? ”

Luan Tingyu smiled bitterly: "Brother Hugh blames me." If according to my meaning, it is best to wish Jiazhuang and Liangshan to make peace, and everyone will not violate the river water from now on, which is the best plan. It's you, junior brother, who made a secret appointment with that Ximen Qing, turned a blind eye, and flew away after the expiration of three years, which is your blessing! ”

Sun Li said abruptly: "I am an official of the imperial court, how can I raise a thief and respect myself?" Senior brother's words, never mention it again! ”

Luan Tingyu sighed: "I knew that you wouldn't listen to it, and what I said was in vain." But the way of the world is different now, the government oppresses the people, but it is like a bandit, and the Liangshan where Ximenqing is located provokes the people, but it is like an official - the people's heart is clear! It's not the power of your **, junior brother, you can be stable! ”

Sun Li said: "Although the senior brother's words are well-intentioned, the junior brother has to think carefully before he can decide. Today, let's just talk about old friendships, don't mention those troubles! ”

Hu Taigong also said: "Yes, yes, the two brothers haven't seen each other for many years, how many things do you have to say, just talk about the old days, why bother yourself?" Come on, come on, little old man toasts the two benefactors! ”

So the banquet for a day, that night Sun Li and his party rested in Hujiazhuang, when Zhujiazhuang heard that there were Yunzhou soldiers and horses to come, sent several groups of people to discuss with Luan Tingyu, to invite Sun Li to Zhujiazhuang to walk. Luan Tingyu and Sun Li said, Sun Li saw that he couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed, and agreed to go to Zhujiazhuang the next day.

After Zhu Long got the letter, he was full of joy, called the two brothers to his father's study to discuss the matter, and said straight to the point: "Let's wish the opportunity to change the fortune of the family!" ”

Zhu Chaofeng was surprised: "How can you say this? Zhu Hu and Zhu Biao also looked at their brother at a loss.

Zhu Long said slowly: "Daddy, our Zhu family has been selling illicit salt for two lifetimes, if it goes on like this, when will it be a game?" As the saying goes, three generations look at food, four generations see through, and five generations read articles. ”

Zhu Chaofeng groaned: "What about you? ”

Zhu Long said: "Now there is an opportunity - Master Luan's junior brother, the new Yunzhou soldiers and horses under the jurisdiction of Sun Li heard that Liangshan attacked our Zhujiazhuang, lest the senior brother lose, he came to help the battle in person, and happened to save the Hu family Sanniang on the way, and at this moment he was resting on the Hujiazhuang." I sent someone to tell the master, tomorrow we will Zhujiazhuang invite this Sun Ti Ha in, put the five thieves of Liang Shanbo in hand, and just use it as a congratulatory gift for Sun Ti Ha to take office. ”

Zhu Hu listened and asked: "Didn't my brother say that he wanted to make peace with Liangshan?" ”

Zhu Long said: "This time, that time." made peace with Liangshan, but made the private salt trade bigger; But if he won the favor of Sun Tihar and took this opportunity to promote his brothers to be military attachés, wouldn't it be glorifying his ancestors? Although Daddy has donated an official, but he is a jobless, it is useless to look good after all, although the government moves around diligently, but it is all fed with money, only if we are officials, the waist pole can really be hard! ”

Zhu Biao said: "Big brother, the military attache of this dynasty is not welcomed, if our brother becomes a military attaché, is it not asking for trouble?" For example, if we don't do it, we won't be able to stand firmly; If we learn to do it, when we are traced from above, we have no foundation, and we will be cut down as rafters who come out of the top—will we not be wronged then? ”

Zhu Long said: "This is not the case. Let's be a military attaché, the picture is to plan for the future generations, so we will be small and low in front of those turban civil officials, and the big husband will endure humiliation and burden, what can we not bear? Speaking of making money, let's wish the family to be short of those small money? As long as I have a positive background, my children and grandchildren will compete in the future, and I will also take the three-ding armor test, which is my blessing for the family. At that time, I taught my children and grandchildren to worship a powerful godfather like today's Taishi Cai, and they would justifiably pile up gold and jade, and where would others dare to say the word 'no'? Let's wish that the family is not short of money and power now, what else do you want? I just want my children and grandchildren to grow up, and a strong master is better than my ancestors! ”

Zhu Chaofeng listened to it and hesitated: "Although what Long'er said is right, if the five thieves in Liangshan are handed over to the government, it will be a mortal enmity with Liangshan. ”

Zhu Long hahadaxiao: "Daddy, don't worry, Sun Ti is here to exterminate that Liang Mountain." Now the Liangshan blunt soldiers are under the strong formation of my Zhujiazhuang, and they can't win, if there is another Sun Ti to attack their back roads and cut off their grain routes, their defeat will be fast! At that time, let's help Sun Tishi, strike while the iron is hot and level Liangshan, just to be the step of our three brothers' advancement, wouldn't it be to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, killing two birds with one stone? ”

Listening to Zhu Long's reasonableness, I wish the family no more objections, and they will arrange manpower, clean up in the village, and prepare to welcome distinguished guests.

On the second day, Zhu's three heroes finished neatly up and down, and personally led the team to greet Sun Li on Hujiazhuang. Sun Li led his family, escorted Ou Peng and Ma Lin, said goodbye to Hu Taigong, and laughed with Luan Tingyu, Zhu's three heroes opened the way in front, and the group came to Zhujiazhuang. Far away, you can hear the noise of gongs and drums, when you arrive in front of the village, you see the door of the village wide open, the suspension bridge is put down, Zhu Chaofeng wears the official clothes, and personally greets the marquis in front of the village.

Sun Li hurriedly dismounted, stepped forward to meet Zhu Chaofeng, the two sides said a few polite words, and Zhu Chaofeng invited Sun Li to enter the village. Along the way, I saw the loess mat road, the clean water splashed the street, and even the dogs of each family were chained up, and they were treated very grandly, Sun Li said: "This gift is too much, but how can the little brother be restrained?" ”

Zhu Chaofeng hurriedly said: "If you don't do this, you can't show the filial piety of the Zhuang family." ”

All the way into the Zhu family, Sun Li and his party settled the car, and the change of clothes was completed, Luan Tingyu led Sun Li and others to the front hall to meet. After the two salutes, Luan Tingyu said to Zhu Chaofeng: "My virtuous brother Sun Li, nicknamed Sick Lieutenant Chi, is under the jurisdiction of Dengzhou soldiers and horses. Now he has to be sent by the governor's office to guard the state and county. ”

Zhu Chaofeng said with a smile: "In this way, the little old man is also under control." ”

Sun Li hurriedly said: "What is the humble position? The old lady is listed as a gentleman, and he is the hope of a county, and Sun Li will ask the court to help him sooner or later. ”

As he spoke, everyone took their seats. Sun Li then asked about Liang Shanbo's disturbing words: "I heard that I have been killing each other here for days, and I am tired of the battle, but I don't know how to win or lose?" ”

Zhu Long replied: "Relying on the tiger power of Tizhi, he has captured several leaders of Liangshan. When the guys saw that they were cheap, they resorted to a delaying tactic, only pushing for a three-day truce, and secretly I was afraid that they would go back to their nest to move troops. But he has thousands of troops and horses, and there is a Tihar here, so why are we afraid of him? ”

Sun Li was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "When I came here, I also caught two thieves, and I borrowed the treasure land to imprison them, and then I caught the thief Song Jiang, and they were all sent to Shangzhou, so that Zhujiazhuang would be famous in the world." ”

So the two cars were trapped, and Ou Peng Malin was imprisoned. When he was sent to the prison cell, he saw Qin Ming, Yang Xiong, Huang Xin, Shi Qian, and Wang Xiaohu all sitting in the car. Qin Ming smiled and said, "Why did the two brothers also come in?" ”

Ou Peng also smiled: "The younger brother came in because of Brother Siquan's clever plan." ”

Qin Ming and Huang Xin listened and couldn't help but feel refreshed. This is exactly what it is:

Just because of the child's strategy, he taught the tiger to break the cage. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
