Chapter 39: Song Jiang's Calculations
Chao Gai saw that Song Jiang's eyebrows were raised, he was really angry, and hurriedly said between him and Ximen Qing: "San Lang and Siquan have drunk too much, how can this major event of the country's government be taken care of after drinking?" For a while, he drank and had sex, which didn't hurt the harmony between the brothers. Come on, come on! The two brothers returned to their seats, and it was right to eat a cup of tea to relieve hangover. ”
Hua Rong also grabbed Song Jiang's shoulders and persuaded: "Brother Gongming, Brother Siquan traveled thousands of miles to save you, but he is a righteous person. Today, he occasionally said wildly after drinking, if Brother Gongming is serious, when he wakes up tomorrow, how can he give birth to Brother Siquan's face? Come and come, my brother returned to his seat, relaxed his mind, didn't remember jokes, and only remembered the previous kindness. ”
The leaders also pulled and persuaded, and divided Song Jiang and Ximen Qing to sit down on both sides. Ximenqing smiled and bowed his hand to Song Jiang: "The younger brother is young, if there is something missing, I still hope that Brother Gongming will be forgiven." ”
What Ximenqing said is that if you can't see what you can't do, and if you don't see what you can't do, you naturally don't need him Song Jiang to do a lot of things. But where can Song Jiang hear the deep meaning of this? I only thought that Ximenqing's words were bowing to him, coupled with Hua Rong's kind words and persuasion, he finally relaxed his stiff face and smiled slightly.
Everyone was relieved to see that there was no longer tension between Song Jiang and Ximen Qing. If there is a conflict between "Yuncheng Timely Rain" and "Qinghe Ximen Qing" Ding is Ding and Mao is Mao, both of them are benevolent and righteous brothers, how thick the gold bricks are, and how thin the jade tiles are, wouldn't it make everyone in a dilemma? But now Ximenqing first softened his figure, and the two did not stiffen their words, which saved everyone from embarrassment.
The atmosphere in the grass hall was a little dull, so he smiled and said: "Today's emperor, whether he is a Ming monarch or a faint monarch, do our Liangshan Bo bird business?" Anyway, the corrupt officials we should kill still have to be killed, and the treasury that should be robbed still has to be robbed, the emperor Lao'er is in Tokyo City, and he casually robbed the people's clothes and food, we just want to snatch these clothes and meals back and help the people! If the emperor is not satisfied, he will send troops to suppress it! I want to see if the forbidden army of the imperial court is powerful, or the heroes of our Liangshan! ”
When everyone heard this, they all said yes. Black Whirlwind Li Kui even shouted: "Then the emperor Lao'er sent 100,000 soldiers, all of them will eat my iron ox and a bird axe, and cut it into 200,000 pieces first!" Everyone laughed when they heard it, and they could tell the truth in their hearts like bragging, and there was only one black whirlwind Li Kui in the whole world.
Divine operator Jiang Jing said: "Since the dog official of Cai Jiu's prefect has already set the amount of ransom, how we want to receive it has to be carefully discussed. ”
Chao Gai nodded and said, "In this case, all the brothers are scattered. Brother Siquan, how should the next affairs be assigned? ”
Ximen Qing got up and said: "Please ask the two brothers Tong Wei and Tong Meng to explore the waterway, and the Chen Xiaofei brother to explore the land, although we have the big shield of Cai Jiu's prefect in hand, but we can't relax our vigilance." ”
Jiangzhou four roads robbed the law field, Ximen Qing dispatched properly, all the brothers did not break one person, rescued Song Jiang Daizong, Jiangzhou Qunhao has long admired the five bodies to the ground. After listening to Ximenqing's instructions, the two brothers Tong Wei and Tong Meng looked at Li Jun, Li Jun nodded and said: "In this case, the two brothers have quit their hard work, and it is the first priority to guard against the soldiers marching by water!" Tong Weitong agreed and went with Chen Xiaofei.
Ximen Qing nodded to Li Jun with a smile, and said, "Tomorrow, except for the people who receive Cai Jiu's ransom, everyone will retreat to Huangmen Mountain." For specific details, I will ask Brother Tianwang, Master Mu Hongmu, and Brother Jiang Jing to follow me to the back hall to discuss in detail. ”
The crowd nodded. Chao Gai, Mu Hong, and Jiang Jing respectively represent the heroes of Liangshan, Jiangzhou Qunhao, and Huangmen Mountain.
Ximen Qing said again: "Brother Gongming and Dean Dai both have torture wounds, and they will be raised when they return to the house, and all the brothers are scattered!" Again, everyone should eat less wine, if you are really bored, there are many heroes here, and everyone learns martial arts, which is also a wonderful way to kill time. ”
When all the heroes listened, they should say yes in unison. At that moment, Hua Rong helped Song Jiang, Wang Xiaohu, Li Jun, and Zhang Shun took care of it, Li Kui helped Dai Zong, and everyone dispersed. Ximen Qing, Chao Gai, Mu Hong, and Jiang Jing went to the back hall to discuss the aftermath.
Song Jiang saw that Ximenqing completely excluded himself from the core of the discussion, and he was very unhappy in his heart. Although he knew that Ximen Qingyi Bo Yuntian might not have done it on purpose, but the husband couldn't be without power for a day, and Song Jiang still couldn't help but be worried in his chest.
Back in the room, Song Jiang only got dizzy after pushing the wine, sent everyone out, and then lay on the bed and thought with his eyes wide open: "Today's matter, but I was reckless." That Cai Jiu's prefect is a corrupt official, and his godfather Cai Jing is the most corrupt in the world, but I pin my hopes for Zhao'an on these people, no wonder all the brothers have to oppose it. Alas! It's just that I don't have much to see in the world, and I can talk to the prefect closely, and my heart is eager, and when my brain is dizzy, I blurt out my confidants, isn't it frivolous? ”
thought again: "When I killed Yan Po, my life was at stake, so I had to gather a group of brothers to be the team, and I wanted to go to Liangshan to settle the grass." But later, the lawsuit was reduced, and I didn't have to resist the fate, so naturally I couldn't throw myself into the net and become a robber. Who knew that it was distributed to the good ground of Jiangzhou, but he was careless in his words and deeds for a while, and wrote an anti-poem, which caused this disaster, and now he has to go to Liangshanbo - alas, it is really a creation and a trick! ”
Nodding his head secretly on the pillow a few times, Song Jiang reflected in his heart: "The one who is fooled by creation is a frivolous person like me, but from now on, everything must be steady." After that, when I went to Liangshan, I had to sit on the golden chair, but how could I think of a way to take over the power of Liangshan, so that I could be the foundation of my future recruitment. ”
As soon as he thought of this, his mind became active: "Although Brother Chao Gai is righteous, he doesn't know the righteousness after all. I only know that I divide gold and silver on a large scale, and eat wine and meat, but I don't think about the future of my brothers. From now on, I only need to admonish him while secretly restraining Shili, with Wu Yong's brothers, Huarong brothers, and Dai Zong brothers as wings, and I will be able to achieve great things by borrowing my thin name of timely rain. ”
My heart is hot, and I can't help but think of Ximenqing: "This Siquan brother, although he is only with me for two short days, is a person with the most brotherly righteousness, in order to save my life, he took the lead and flew thousands of miles from Liangshan to Jiangzhou, which shows that he still respects me." It's just that this guy has lacked discipline since he was a child, and he has no thoughts of loyalty in his head, so it's not angry and painful. That's it! I'll think of a way to subdue this person first. He is a strong martial artist and a brilliant resource, and as long as he is wholeheartedly with me, he will be my right-hand man. Why am I not like this, like this? ”
Thinking of the smugness, Song Jiang seemed to have seen Ximen Qing flattered, knelt down in front of him, and kept saying "I am willing to die for Brother Gongming", and unconsciously, a thick layer of joy appeared on his face. After thinking about it repeatedly, there was no flaw in his own plan, Song Jiang couldn't help but want to jump up and dance in the room, but then he was alerted - "I want to be steady!" Stable! ”
Sinking his body deeper in the mattress, Song Jiang thought in his heart: "Yuncheng and timely rain, Qinghe Ximen Qing, the two of us have two swords combined, up and down Liangshan, who can resist?" Wait! Among the Liangshan brothers, there are many people from the green forest, who are naturally hostile to the imperial court, and want to persuade them to recruit peace, even if there are four spring brothers to help, how easy is it to talk about it? How good is that? ”
After tossing and turning for a while, he suddenly slapped his thigh, and said with a secret smile: "In this case, in the future, we will recruit more officers and rich families to go to Liangshan to settle on the grass." They are different from those who are poor and white, they are all rich and comfortable people, where are they willing to carry the name of thieves all their lives in the world? If there is an opportunity to recruit peace, you will be hungry and thirsty, and you will never let it go! It's just that there are so many people like this, and those mud-legged arms can't twist their thighs, so they have to be obedient! ”
Thinking of the happy place, he secretly calculated the selection of the person from the rich family of the officer on Liangshan: "That leopard head Lin Chong, although he is from the head of the 800,000 forbidden army, he is a mortal enemy with Captain Gao of the dynasty, and he is the old brother of Liangshan, and his friendship with Chao Gai is even deeper, nine out of ten out of nine, he will not approve of my proposal to recruit peace!" ”
"Brother Huarong, it goes without saying that you will definitely support me. It was his brother-in-law, Qin Ming...... Hum! Qin Ming, Qin Ming! Qin Ming has an enmity with me after all, Qingzhou City, his wife and children are all bad in my hands, and Huang Xin is Qin Ming's apprentice who taught him by hand, so he may not be with me. These two people, although one is in charge of the soldiers and horses, and the other is the supervisor of the soldiers and horses, they are both old people in the imperial court system, but at the critical moment, they may not be able to count on it! ”
Thinking of this, Song Jiang secretly reflected again: "Qin Ming's matter, but I did it roughly. In the future, when you make money and go up the mountain, you must carefully consider it and use it gently! In this regard, Mr. Jia Liang and I have the same aspirations, and we will definitely help me with advice, which will be foolproof! ”
After thinking about it for a long time, Zuihou summed up in his heart: "My shili, Brother Huarong is my arm, Mr. Wu Yong is my bosom friend, if I subdue Ximenqing, I will have another strong reinforcement." There are also three brothers, Qingfeng Mountain Yanshun, Wang Xiaohu, and Zheng Tianshou, Shi Yong who met on the way, plus Dean Dai and Li Tieniu, who are friends in Jiangzhou, and a group of Shili from the newly sworn Li Jun brothers...... Hey! When I arrive in Liangshanbo, I, Song Jiang, will definitely be able to show my strength! ”
The pride surged in his heart, and he thought: "Qin and the six countries, distant friends and close attacks." Why don't I visit the prefect of Cai Jiu and show my kindness? Even though he is a corrupt official, corrupt officials are also useful! ”
The plan was decided, so he pushed the door out and went to find Cai Jiu. This is exactly what it is:
It is said that good and evil fight ice and charcoal, and watch snakes and rats and jackals. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
