In the open space in front of the Juyi Hall, Qin Ming was practicing martial arts shirtless, and a hideous mace was danced impermeable.

His wife, Hua Xiaomei, watched from the side, with a pair of bright eyes full of affection.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

Zhu Long applauded: "Brother Qin is very skilled! ”

When Qin Ming saw it, he hurriedly stopped the movements in his hand, put the mace on the weapon rack, and walked over quickly, "Why is the lord here today?" Military advisor, Brother Xiao, Brother Lu! ”

He also followed Wu Yong and Sun Li to change his name to "Lord Gong".

Zhu Long smiled: "I'll take a look at how Liangshan is doing, it seems that everything is on the right track." ”

Hua Xiaomei moved a small step, came to Qin Ming's side, first put on a coat for Qin Ming, then bent her knees to the side, said a blessing to Zhu Long, and said softly: "I have seen a big official." ”

Zhu Long hurriedly returned the salute with his fists and greeted: "Sister-in-law is well!" Mrs. Hua's matter is also very sad below, please mourn and change! ”

Hua Xiaomei's expression was a little gloomy: "My sister-in-law has a hard life, and I look forward to reuniting with my brother every day, but I can't see each other until I die, it's really pitiful!" ”

Zhu Long is embarrassed, Hua Rong is locked up in prison by him!

"Women, what nonsense!" Qin Ming reproached.

Hua Xiaomei came to her senses and hurriedly explained: "I don't blame the big officials, Liangshan violated Zhujiazhuang, and the big officials can't say a word in order to protect themselves, although the slave family is a woman's family, this right and wrong can still be distinguished." ”

"If it weren't for the big officials to redeem me with Zhang Heng, I'm afraid the slave family would also be poisoned by Dong Ping, and you are kind-hearted, let your husband accompany me here, the slave family is very grateful to the big official!"

"The slave family knows that it is Song Jiang who harms my whole family, if it weren't for him, my brother would still be the Qingfeng Zhai Zhizhai, if it weren't for him liking the new and forgetting the old and conniving at Dong Ping, my sister-in-law would not have been poisoned by this ......"

"What are you talking about, if it weren't for Song Jiang, I would still be the head of the Qingzhou soldiers and horses, and I would be in charge of the soldiers and horses of the entire Jingdong East Road, one province and eight states!" Qin Ming felt that his wife had lost face by saying these words in front of his leaders and colleagues.

Zhu Long smiled: "Mrs. Sister-in-law is reasonable! In fact, I admire Brother Ling very much, but it's a pity that he was poured ecstasy soup by Song Jiang and refused to submit to me, and his archery skills are like gods, I really don't dare to let him go! If it weren't for the luck of catching him, it would have been much more difficult for us to attack Liangshan, and I don't know how many brothers would have died! When you go to Zhujiazhuang, help me persuade him! ”

Hua Xiaomei showed a little joy, "The slave family must persuade my brother!" ”

She said to Qin Ming again: "Husband, why don't you go back to the house and fry a few dishes, warm two pots of wine, and invite the officials and a few brothers to have a meal at noon!" ”

Qin Ming nodded, thinking that his wife was the only way to give him face, and said happily: "Okay, you can go back and get busy first!"

"Isn't that right? It's too much to disturb Mrs. Sister-in-law. Zhu Long hesitated.

"Why, what is it worth for a woman to cook a meal! Don't shirk, the cooking skills are passable, much better than the big pot rice in the army! "Qin Ming is very enthusiastic and cannot refuse.

Zhu Long had no choice but to thank: "Then bother Mrs. Sister-in-law!" ”

Hua Xiaomei gave a salute, turned around and went back to the house to cook.

Zhu Long smiled and said to Qin Ming: "Sister-in-law is virtuous, Brother Qin should be kind!" Military affairs are important, but the family must also be harmonious! I still say the same thing, ruthless may not be really heroic! ”

Qin Minghan smiled, a little embarrassed, and changed the topic: "When will the big officials go back?" ”

"I'm also in a hurry to go back, the three brothers are outside, and the old father is alone in the Zhuangzi, I'm very worried! After I go back, I can't miss a scolding! Zhu Long smiled helplessly, and everyone laughed.

"I stayed here because I didn't worry about the water word camp, after all, it had just been established, things were complicated, and it was in a strange ......place," Zhu Long chattered like an old father talking about his son.

Wu Yong shook his head with a smile and said: "The lord is really an eldest brother like a father, and the friendship is so admirable!" It's just that the third master is smart and wise, and he can handle it properly and take charge of himself. In the future, he will lead the army to fight, fight in the south and the north, and fight in the east and west, after all, he will have to rely on himself, you can't shelter him forever! ”

Zhu Long listened, bowed his head and was silent, pondered for a long time, raised his head and said, "Thank you for your guidance, I am concerned about it!" We'll go back tomorrow! ”

"Madame Hua's first seven days are tonight, and I can go back with you tomorrow." Qin Ming hurriedly said.

"Okay, you and your sister-in-law will come back by boat tomorrow." Zhu Long hesitated for a moment and asked, "Have you seen Zhang Shun in the past few days?" ”

When he came today, he wanted to see Zhang Shun, but after thinking about it, it's better not to see him, so leave it to Zhu Biao to deal with!

"I haven't seen it!" Qin Ming shook his head.

He is very incompatible with the people of the Xunyang Jiang family, he is a court officer, and they are local underworld forces, and they have no umbrella and are very ignorant.

Zhu Long also stopped asking, and surveyed the cliffs around Liangshan.

The surroundings of this Liang Mountain seem to be steep and precipitous, and it is impossible to climb, but Zhu Biao has quietly come up, and Chao Gai has also escaped, who knows if there is a third way?

He can't rest assured!

Near noon, I came to Qin Ming's residence in Houshan to eat.

There are a lot of small villas on the back mountain, in the heyday of Liangshan, there were more than 50 leaders, and there were more than 40 small villas in the back mountain.

Now, there are only four or five people, and most of them live in the army, and few people come to the back mountain, and the empty houses that are uninhabited look strange and terrifying.

Qin Ming's daughter-in-law's craftsmanship is good!

Zhu Long is usually in the army, and he is only full of every meal, where to consider the taste problem.

Now that I eat home dishes, I feel that my taste buds are about to bloom.

"I shouldn't have come to dinner!" Zhu Long sighed with a bitter face, "After eating my sister-in-law's meal, how can I swallow the big pot of rice in the army in the future!" ”

Qin Ming and his wife were very happy when they heard such fancy praise, and they strongly persuaded them to eat more.

Everyone had a great appetite, and even Wu Yong ate two bowls of rice.

Everyone was full of wine and food, and praised Hua Xiaomei, which made her very embarrassed.

"Come to my house often for dinner in the future!" Qin Ming said generously.

A few people walked in the back mountain to eat, and more than a dozen personal soldiers followed not far away.

In addition to Zhu Long, the other four people have all lived here, and whenever they pass by an uninhabited house, they will introduce him to him and tell him who the former owner of the empty house was.

Wu Yong and Xiao Rang also took them to their residence, took a few books, some clothes, and gold and silver, and let them be carried by their own soldiers.

When he saw a house in front of him, Qin Ming took them around the road, and when he saw Zhu Long showing a puzzled look, Xiao Rang explained softly for him: "That's where Song Taigong lives!" ”

Zhu Long nodded suddenly, feeling a little depressed.

Song Taigong's two sons, the youngest son Song Qing was killed, and the eldest son Song Jiang was arrested by the government, and nine times out of ten he was going to be beheaded, for an old man, the evening scene was too bleak!

"Then where does Mrs. Mu live?" Zhu Long remembered that Mu Hong Mu Chun's father was also alive and still living on Liangshan. Mu Hong died in Zhujiazhuang, Mu Chun was nowhere to be found, and the old man must have washed his face with tears every day.

"Right there!" Qin Ming pointed to a small courtyard under a large locust tree not far away.

Zhu Long didn't plan to go over, and said to Qin Ming: "You go back and ask the old man, do you want to go to see Mu Hong's grave, if you want to go, take him to Zhujiazhuang!" ”

His heart was heavy.

If it weren't for his own crossing, Zhujiazhuang would have been broken by Liangshan, and Zhujiazhuang would have died miserably, and the old lady Zhu would also have died under Shixiu's knife.

But he can't be as cold-blooded and murderous as Liangshan's "heroes", and he is always full of pity and sympathy for the weak.
