Seeing Zhao Tan come out, Chong Yanchong and Song Jiang were suddenly anxious, and they wanted to enter in person to separate Li Kui and the man.

But the martial arts of the two of them are not higher than those two, especially Song Jiang, who is not at the level of the stream, and his strength is not good, so he can't rely on it at all.

Zhao Ta frowned when he saw this, he didn't stop even when he came out, he was really crazy.

After calling Chong Yanchong and Song Jiang and asking what was going on, Chong Yanchong said: "Your Majesty, I came to report on the city defense situation, I didn't want to meet General Song in front of the palace gate and bring people over. ”

Song Jiang also said at this time: "Your Majesty, it was the man who made the first move, not the iron bull." ”

Zhao Ta glanced at the two on the field, the man in his thirties didn't recognize it.

"What's the name of this?" Zhao asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, called Hu Cheng, I have been in the army more than ten years ago, and I have been under the command of my father-in-law, and I have accumulated military merits for many years to the position of partial general, and I am not a new person."

It turned out to be Hu Cheng, Zhao Ta's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this.

Hu Cheng is Hu Sanniang's brother, that day Liangshan three dozen Zhujiazhuang, the Hu family had sent someone to help cheer, and later Hu Sanniang was captured, the Hu family wanted to surrender Liangshan in exchange for Hu Sanniang's life, but unfortunately Li Kui and Gu sister-in-law rushed to Hujiazhuang first, a good kill, almost no chickens and dogs left, only Hu Cheng escaped alone, ran to the west into the army of the planter.

It's no wonder that Hu Cheng saw Li Kuifen's eyes red, and he stepped forward to do it if he didn't obey the military order, and even looked like he didn't die.

Zhao Ta sighed in his heart, this was actually a confused account.

Back then, whether it was Song Jiang or Chao Gai, no one called Li Kui and Gu Sister-in-law to destroy the Hu family.

In fact, it was the two who killed the red-eyed, and after killing Zhujiazhuang, they led people to run to kill Hujiazhuang.

Li Kui is a confused person, he doesn't know himself, and he can't even talk about acting rashly, every time he does things, he only relies on his temperament at the time, and he is not a kind of temperament that comes from it, and he is praised for his misdeeds, but he is actually a bastard.

Sister-in-law Gu is a normal person, but her nature is not as upright as rumored outside, and she is actually a murderous person.

The two of them were red-eyed, and they wanted to continue to kill, Li Kui's mind definitely couldn't think of going to Hujiazhuang again, and nine times out of ten it was Gu's sister-in-law who provoked it.

Now that Gu's sister-in-law is dead, Hu Cheng recognizes Li Kui, so he naturally wants to put all this account on Li Kui.

He can't be regarded as Song Jiang, because of the last correspondence, Song Jiang has accepted the surrender of Hujiazhuang, and later when the village was fighting, Hu Cheng once said that he was going to go up the mountain soon, they were all brothers, why did he come to kill?

Li Kui's nonsense replied: "Only by killing you can we cut off Brother Gongming's thoughts, otherwise Brother Gongming will be unable to sit still, and he won't be able to sleep at night, you have to be Brother Gongming's brother-in-law, don't even think about it!" ”

Then he began to kill, and he was invincible, so he had to escape from the village, and after thinking about it, he thought that there was no way, he couldn't save his family and his sister, and he gritted his teeth and went west to the old man.

Although Hu Cheng also hates Song Jiang in his heart, he hates Li Kui the most, after all, this is the enemy who killed Zhuangzi and destroyed him, his martial arts at the moment are very different from those of those years, he has been trained in the Western Army for many years, and has participated in several major battles in recent years, so he can fight with Li Kui.

Zhao Ta couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the two of them tearing together, each with scars and blood stains on their bodies.

The grievances between Li Kui and the Hu family were the sins created by Liang Shan back then, and from the perspective of passers-by, they naturally hated Song Jiang for playing selfish and causing evil consequences, and even more hated Li Kui for indiscriminately killing innocents and killing stars.

However, the grievances and hatreds between the two sides are old things, and this kind of old feelings and hatreds, and the grievances of the people, are actually not enough to rise to the point that he, the monarch, will uphold justice from it.

The king of the world, the affairs of the military state can't be dealt with, where is the energy to deal with this kind of old thing, not to mention that he was not in his current position at that time.

Even if Zhao Ta wants to lower his status to preside over a justice and discuss the rights and wrongs of old things, it is not easy to implement at this moment, after all, whether it is Song Jiang or Li Kui, they are all his subordinates now, and Li Kui still has credit.

Even if Li Kui deserves to die, he can't kill him now, what do you think of the people who killed Li Kui and took refuge in Liangshan? What do those meritorious generals think? For the sake of personal grudges in the past, he killed the meritorious man, which is unjustifiable, and it will chill the generals around him.

What's more, in terms of intimacy, now it is obvious that Li Kui is closer, Hu Cheng is the first time to see him, although Hu Sanniang has a share of affection, but it is always after Li Kui's military exploits.

If it's just mediation, then Zhao Ta also has a headache, this matter is not easy to mediate, there is a deep hatred in the sea of blood, and it is almost impossible to reconcile.

He rubbed his temples and instructed Bai Zhan to pull them apart!" ”

Bai Zhan and Bai Ba stepped forward and took a lot of effort to barely drag the two apart, although Li Kui and Hu Cheng's martial arts are actually inferior to Bai Zhan, at most they are similar to Bai Ba, but the two are powerful, and they are endless, so it is extremely difficult to separate.

At this moment, even if he was forcibly divided into two sides, he still earned more than one piece, scolded in his mouth, raised his legs and kicked forward.

Zhao Ta said: "A few more people, tie them up." ”

With his order, Chong Yanchong and Song Jiang also went over to help, these two people were angry in their hearts, and their subordinates did not listen to the order, so that they did not say anything on their faces, and they were afraid that Zhao Ta would be punished, after all, this involved military discipline.

Both of them were tightly tied with cow tendon ropes, but their mouths were still scolding.

Song Jiang was angry, you must know that Zhao Take was close to him, Li Kui was still so open-mouthed, it was very appropriate to sentence a light monarch for the crime, or it was possible to commit a crime, which one was enough to go to prison and cut off his head.

He took a few steps over and slapped two slaps: "Bastard, Your Majesty is here, and you can't stop talking!" ”

Li Kui was stunned: "Why did my brother beat his own family?" ”

Song Jiang hurriedly glanced behind him, Li Kui didn't see Zhao Ta coming, but he didn't think about it at all, and then he had big eyes: "Your Majesty is here." ”

Song Jiang immediately said angrily: "Do you still know that Your Majesty is here?" How dare you be presumptuous in front of Your Majesty! ”

Li Kui said: "It's not the first time I've fought in front of Your Majesty, Your Majesty knows about me, what are you afraid of?" ”

Song Jiang almost fell back in anger, and he couldn't make sense with this bastard, so he had to say: "Shut up, don't speak!" ”

Li Kui muttered a few words in a low voice, and then peeked at Zhao Ta, seeing that Zhao Ta was expressionless, and then lowered his head.

Over there, Chong Yanchong also drank Hu Cheng, Hu Cheng was really carried away by hatred, as long as he could kill Li Kui at that moment just now, he could ask him to resist his life, at this time, his mind gradually cleared up, where did he dare to go to see Zhao Tan, even if he had a deep hatred in the sea of blood, but at this time, he was very weak in the face of the king.

Zhao Ta sneered: "Yes, it's all out of the way, dare to make trouble in front of my mansion, what else don't you dare?" ”

Li Kui felt aggrieved, he had long forgotten Hu Cheng, and even the matter of Hu Jiazhuang back then was a little vague, and when he asked him who Hu Sanniang was, he would say that he had never heard of it, this is a bad person.

He wanted to defend that he didn't cause trouble, but the other party did it first, for fear that Zhao Ta would punish him for not drinking for a month.

Song Jiang was worried that Zhao Ta was angry and directly cut off Li Kui's head, accompanying the king like a tiger, don't look at the emperor talking and laughing with you like a friend one moment ago, maybe the next moment if your mood changes, it will kill you.

Seeing that Li Kui was about to speak again, Song Jiang's face twitched, if so many people were Li Kui spoke against Zhao Ta, then they didn't have to die? He hurriedly took out a square handkerchief and stuffed it into Li Kui's mouth: "Don't speak!" ”

Hu Cheng didn't have Li Kui's thoughts over there, he hadn't seen Zhao Ta, let alone follow the left and right, he didn't have Li Kui's closeness, today it was Yan Chong who brought him over to see, and wanted to show his face in front of Zhao Ta, leave an impression, and make progress in the future.

Song Jiang and Chong Yanchong saw that Zhao Ta's tone was not good at this time, and hurriedly pleaded, Zhao Ta raised his hand and told the two to shut up, and the two did not dare to continue talking.

Zhao Ta looked at Li Kui first: "It's not counted as a move in front of the house, I won't stop when I come out?" ”

Li Kui: "Woo woo woo ......" his mouth was gagged, and he couldn't distinguish the words.

Zhao Ta said: "Hang this rammed goods to the tree and whip twenty whips, send Bai Ao to watch, you can't drink for a month!" ”

Li Kui: "Woo woo woo ......"

The soldiers over there dragged Li Kui away for execution, and Song Jiang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this is considered to be no worry about his life, it seems that His Majesty still remembers Li Kui's merits.

Zhao Ta looked at Hu Cheng again: "Hu Cheng? ”

Hu Cheng didn't know how to answer, he didn't know Zhao Ta, and he couldn't help but feel worried at the moment, and then Yan Chong raised his foot and kicked at the crook of his leg, and said angrily: "Don't make amends to Your Majesty!" ”

Chong Yanchong scolded secretly in his heart at this time, he originally took him to lift him, but he didn't expect it to be so unruly, and he knew that he would come by himself.

Now the farmer is not as good as at the beginning, both of the father-in-law and the uncle died on the battlefield, although the people in the Guanzhong clan are still prosperous, but he is the only one who can speak in the army.

That is to say, if he is not powerful, then the family will decline, he is the grandson of the seed master, his father and uncle died early, and his cousin has died, which is the only inheritance of the old race, and the burden on his shoulders is very heavy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is responsible for the rise and fall of the entire clan.

On the other hand, the Yao family, although Yao Gu also died in the north, but not to mention his clan, even his own bloodline is prosperous, two of them are the most outstanding, Yao Pingzhong is the descendant of His Majesty, long before the conquest of Wang Qing served under his command, it can be said that he is a very close minister, just a few days ago he was appointed as the Xihe Road Jinglu pacification envoy, and went to the post, and the thirties were pacified, and the future is limitless.

There is also Yao Youzhong, who also made great contributions in the defense of Tokyo, and has just been promoted to the rank of official, and he will definitely enter the two divisions and three officials in the future.

As for the Zhe family, it was even more powerful, although Fuzhou was lost at that time, the Zhe family scraped together more than 20,000 soldiers and horses to aid Tokyo, which was also a great achievement, and the people of the Zhe family lost less.

Especially Zhehanmei, it is said that he is a childhood sweetheart with His Majesty, and His Majesty sent someone to mention his relatives before, but he was afraid that as soon as the war ended, he would be included in the palace.

On the other hand, although the people are still sufficient, but the talents are withered, so Chong Yanchong wants to show himself in front of Zhao Ta, and it is not impossible to bring a child of the seed family, but he thinks too much, and he is afraid that Zhao Ta will have other ideas, so he will lead it.

I thought that Hu Cheng was an old man in the army, and he was promoting him again, and he would definitely not make any mistakes, but he didn't expect to cause such a mess before he entered the mansion.

Chong Yanchong knew that Li Kui often followed Zhao Ta around, and he made meritorious contributions in successive battles, but he was afraid that Zhao Ta would favor one over the other and punish Hu Cheng severely, so he quickly made him make amends.

Hu Cheng knelt down to admit his mistake, Chong Yanchong also said good things to him on the side, Zhao Ta looked at Hu Cheng for a moment, and said: "I know about your family's affairs, but at this time, it is difficult for me to give you a decision, after all, your family and Li Kui were not under my command back then, let alone entered the court, although the right and wrong are clear, but now you are all doing things for the court, it makes me embarrassed for a while." ”

Hu Cheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and snorted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Know the villain's business? ”

Next to him, Chong Yanchong was also stunned, he didn't know Hu Cheng's family affairs, but he had vaguely mentioned it to him when he was alive, and it seemed that he had been killed all over the house, and today it seems that Li Kui did it, so I don't know where Zhao Ta learned about it?

Zhao Tan nodded: "I know, you can come with me." ”

Chong Yanchong dragged Hu Cheng, the two looked confused, and followed Zhao Ta into the door of the mansion, just as Huo Xuanji and Xiao Lizhen came over, so they asked the second daughter to make tea and send it over.

Zhao Ta sat down in the hall, and then didn't speak, and only spoke when the second girl tea came: "Although I didn't say everything about Hujiazhuang back then, I also knew seven or eight out of ten. ”

Hu Cheng became more and more stunned when he heard this, at that time, Liangshan had not made a big fuss, Chao Gai was still alive, that is, the green forest thief, Song Jiang said that it was not completely counted, and he had not changed the Juyi Hall to Zhongyi Hall.

And Zhujiazhuang, Lijiazhuang, and Hujiazhuang are local township tyrants to put it bluntly, and there is not much official background, not to mention any scholars and the like.

In that case, then why did Zhao Ta know about this?

Who is Zhao Tan? Even if Hu Cheng has never seen it, he has never worked for Zhao Tan before, but in the Western Army, where will he not understand, and he is afraid that his own green forest grievances will not be in the eyes and ears of the other party.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......"

Zhao Ta smiled: "I wonder how I know these things, right?" ”

Hu Cheng nodded hurriedly: "The villain is puzzled, although the villain's family has undergone great changes, but compared with the major events of the military state, it is still, it is still ......."

Zhao Ta waved his hand and didn't tell him to continue, after all, for ordinary people, many things are just landslides and seas, and the sky has collapsed.

"Let me ask you, have you ever been to Tokyo in that year?"

"Liao ...... that year" Hu Cheng said cautiously while thinking: "The villain did come to Tokyo that year, and he came with his sister, and he wanted to see for a long time, after all, he was in the countryside and had never seen any big world. ”

Zhao Ta nodded: "I know Sanniang, it was at that time that I heard Sanniang say these things later." ”

Hu Cheng was immediately stunned, and then his body trembled: "Your Majesty, Sanniang, didn't Sanniang follow Lin Chong out of Liangshan, die, die outside......

"Sanniang is not dead." Zhao Ta shook his head.

"Not dead?" Hu Cheng's eyes widened.

"Naturally, she didn't die, but later I met her in Tokyo and told her about the past, and then she and Lin Chong left Kaifeng and went to other places to make a living...... Zhao Ta said leisurely.
