It is said that Chen Zongshan received the edict, returned to the mansion, packed up, and many people came to congratulate: "The captain is on this trip, one is a state official, the other is to share the worries of the people, and the army and the people are rid of trouble. Liang Shanbo is mainly loyal and righteous, and he only waits for the imperial court to recruit peace, and the Taiwei can write some sweet words and sympathy." While he was talking, I saw that the officials of the Taishi Mansion came to invite him and said, "The Taishi invited the Taiwei to speak." Chen Zongshan got on the sedan chair until he got off the sedan chair in front of the Taishi's Mansion on New Songmen Street, and the cadres went straight into the academy in the festival hall, saw the Taishi, and sat down on the side. After the tea soup was over, Taishi Cai asked, "I heard that the Son of Heaven sent you to Liangshan Bo Zhao'an, and I would like to ask you to know: don't lose the discipline of the imperial court and mess up the laws of the country when you go there. You have heard the Analects of Analects: "It is a shame to do oneself, to do it in all directions, and not to dishonor the king's life." Chen Taiwei said: "Zongshan knows everything, and Master Cheng advises." Cai Jing said again, "I asked this cadre to go with you. He has saved many testimonies, and lest you will not see anywhere, so he will raise them with you." Mrs. Chen said, "I am deeply grateful for my kindness." resigned from the Taishi, led the cadres, left the Prime Minister's Mansion, and went home in a sedan chair.

Just after resting, the doorman came to report, and Gao Dianshuai dismounted. Taiwei Chen hurriedly came out to greet him, please sit down in the hall, and after the cold temperature was over, Gao Taiwei said: "Today, the imperial court is discussing the matter of recruiting An Song Jiang, if Gao Yu is included, it will definitely be blocked. This thief humiliated the court, and the crime was heinous, and now he pardoned the criminals and introduced them into the capital, which will become a disaster in the future. If you want to wait for the echo, the jade sound has come out, and it depends on the general idea. If this thief still ignores his conscience and neglects the holy decree, the captain will return to Beijing early, and it is my wish to play the Son of Heaven, order the army on the hour, go to the other side in person, and cut the grass and eradicate the roots. The lieutenant is here, and there is a waiting under the subordinate of the subordinate officer, who can speak quickly, ask one answer and answer ten, so that he can discuss matters with the lieutenant." Chen Taiwei thanked and said, "I am grateful for the worries of the palace marshal." Gao Yu got up, and Mrs. Chen was sent to the front of the house and got on the horse.

The next day, Zhang Gan of Taishi Cai's Mansion and Li Yuhou of Gao Dian's Marshal Mansion, both of them arrived. Taiwei Chen tied the horses, counted the number of people, put ten bottles of imperial wine in the dragon and phoenix, and planted a yellow flag in front of him. Captain Chen got on the horse, personally followed five or six people, Zhang Ganban, Li Yuhou all rode horses, Dan Zhao carried his back in front, and led a group of people out of the New Song Gate. -- The following officials, as well as those who saw them off, went back. --Came to Jeju. Uncle Zhang followed the night, please go to the mansion to set up a feast to treat each other, and ask for the section of Zhao'an, and Taiwei Chen said that he was prepared.

Uncle Zhang said at night: "On a certain foolishness, it is best to recruit peace; It's just one thing, when the captain goes there, he must accompany some harmony, use sweet words, and sympathize with him, so that they can do evil together, as long as they accomplish great things. There are a few men in his number who are like fiery nature, and if they run against him with a word, it will be a great thing." Zhang Gan, Li Yu waited: "Let the two of me follow the captain, it will not be too late. Taishou, you only discipline to be careful and kind, you must break the court discipline, the younger generations often suppress it, not half of it; If you let him lift up his head, he will make a form." Uncle Zhang said, "Who are these two?" Chen Taiwei said: "This person is the cadre in Taishi Cai's mansion, and this one is Yu Hou in Taiwei's mansion." Uncle Zhang said, "I have to teach these two to do it!" Chen Taiwei said: "He is a confidant of the Cai Mansion Gaofu, if you don't take him there, you will definitely be suspicious." Uncle Zhang said at night: "Xiaguan's words are just good, I'm afraid that the hard work will be fruitless." Zhang Gan said: "Let the two of me go, there will be no trickle of water." Uncle Zhang didn't dare to speak anymore. On the one hand, a banquet was arranged and sent to the hall for rest. The next day, Jeju sent a messenger to Yangsanpo to report the news.

However, it was said that Song Jiang gathered at the Zhongyi Hall every day to discuss the military situation, and someone had already reported the matter, but he did not see the truth, and he was very happy in his heart. On that day, the little minions led the Jeju messenger to the Chungyi Hall and said, "The imperial court has sent a Tai Lieutenant Chen Zongshan to ten bottles of imperial wine to forgive sins and recruit An Dan Zhao, and he has arrived in Jeju City, and he is ready to greet him here." Song Jiang was overjoyed, so he took wine and food, and two colored satins, ten taels of silver, and sent the messenger back first.

Song Jiang said to the people: "We have been recruited, we have to be the courtiers of the country, and we have suffered many times in vain! Today is the right thing!" Wu Yong said with a smile: "Regarding Wu's intentions, this time will inevitably fail; Even if we recruit An, we can see that we are like mustard. When this army of generals comes, he teaches him some poisonous hands, and kills others, and he is afraid in his dreams, and he is only then that he is recruited to have some grace." Song Jiang said, "If you say so, you must break the word 'loyalty'." Lin Chong said: "When the nobles in the court come, how many pretends, it may not be a good thing in the middle." Guan Sheng said, "There must be some frightening words written in the edict to frighten us." Xu Ning said again: "The person who came must be Gao Taiwei's subordinates." Song Jiang said: "You all don't have to be suspicious, and only care about arranging for the edict." Shilling Song Qing, Cao Zheng is preparing the seat, commissioning Chai into the capital to promote the transfer, to be very neat, lay down the Taiwei times, row five-color silk satin, the hall up and down, set up color hanging flowers. First make Pei Xuan, Xiao Rang, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng go down the mountain in advance, and meet them from the twenty-mile road. The leader of the navy prepares a large ship to the shore. Wu used a herald: "Do what you do according to me, if you don't do this, you can't do it." Let's say that Xiao Rang led three entourages, led five or six people, and had no defense, and greeted him twenty miles away with wine and fruit. On the way that day, Zhang Gan did it, Li Yuhou did not ride a horse, but walked in front of the horse, and followed the people behind him, He only had two or three hundred, and there were about a dozen officers in Jeju, and they were arranged in front to guide the people and horses. The dragon and phoenix carried the imperial wine in the shoulder, and the horse rider carried the edict box. There were also fifty or sixty people in Jeju Prison, all of whom had to go to Yangsan Bonai, hoping to find a small fortune. Xiao Rang, Pei Xuan, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng picked up halfway, and they all prostrated themselves to greet them. The cadre asked, "Who do you look like Song Jiang? The emperor's edict 'H is coming, how can he not come to pick it up in person? What a deception! You are a damned person, how can you stand the court's recruitment? Please go back, Captain." Xiao Rang, Pei Xuan, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng fell to the ground and pleaded: "Since the imperial court has never sent an edict to the village, it has not seen the truth. Song Jiang and the big and small leaders are all in the golden beach to greet him, and the captain of Wanwang will temporarily calm the wrath of the thunder, as long as he accomplishes good things with the country, he will be spared." Li Yuhou said, "If it doesn't work a good thing, I don't have to worry about you, a thief, flying into the sky." There is a poem as proof:

Pei Jinsheng has been slanderous since ancient times, and villains should not do anything first. Nine days of grace and rain announced today, but unfortunately the recruitment is not complete.

At that time, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng said: "What words! It's just as contemptuous as men!" Xiao Rang, Pei Xuan had to beg him to take the wine fruit, but he refused to eat it. Everyone came to the water's edge with each other, and Liang Shanbo had three warships on it, one loaded with horses, one loaded with Pei Xuan and other cadres, and one asked the captain to get off the boat, and followed the other to put the edict and wine on the bow of the ship. That boat was the "Living Yama" Ruan Xiaoqi's overseer.

On that day, Ruan Xiaoqi sat on the tip of the boat and allocated more than 20 military boats, each with a waist knife. When Captain Chen first disembarked, he sat in the middle as if no one was around. Ruan Xiaoqi beckoned everyone, moved the boat, and the sailors on both sides sang in unison. Li Yuhou scolded: "Village donkey, the nobleman is here, he is unscrupulous!" The sailor watched him and sang. Li Yuhou picked up the rattan and came to beat the sailors on both sides, and everyone was not afraid. A few of the heads replied, "We sing to ourselves, what do you do." Li Yuhou said, "How dare you reply to me, who can't kill the thief?" So he went to beat the rattan, and the sailors on both sides jumped into the water. Ruan Xiaoqi said on the ship: "If you beat my sailor into the water like this, how can this ship go?" I saw the first two clippers coming down to pick it up. It turned out that Ruan Xiaoqi had accumulated two cabins of water in advance, and when he saw that the boats were close to him, Ruan Xiaoqi went to pull out the railings and shouted, "The boat is leaking!" The water rolled up to the cabin early in the morning, and when the emergency call for help, there was more than a foot of water in the boat. The two boats were about to come together, and everyone rescued Captain Chen to cross the boat. And each of them shook the boat away, and there came the edict of the imperial wine. The two clippers went first.

Ruan Xiaoqi called the sailor, scooped up the water in the cabin, wiped all the cloth, but asked the sailor to say, "You bring a bottle of imperial wine, I'll taste it first." A sailor went to Danzhong to take out a bottle of wine, untied the head, and handed it to Ruan Xiaoqi. Ruan Xiaoqi took it and smelled the fragrant fragrance, Ruan Xiaoqi said, "I'm afraid of poison, I can't make one, taste some first." There are no bowls and bottles, so I can drink them all in one go. Ruan Xiaoqi ate a bottle and said, "It's a little tasteful." One bottle is there to help, another bottle is fetched, and another bottle is drunk. I ate so slippery that I ate four bottles in a row. Ruan Xiaoqi said, "How is it good?" The sailor said, "There's a barrel of liquor at the tip of the ship." Ruan Xiaoqi said, "Take a scoop of water with me, and I will teach you to reach the mouth." The six bottles of imperial wine were distributed to the sailors and eaten, but they were filled with ten bottles of village mash water and white wine, and the original head was tied, and then placed in the dragon and phoenix arm, and it was like rocking a boat, rushing to the golden beach, but it was good to go ashore. Song Jiang and others were there to greet them, fragrant flowers and candles, golden drums, and drums in the cottage, all sounded together, and put the imperial wine on the table, each table ordered four people; The edict was also written on the same table.

Captain Chen went ashore, and Song Jiang and the others followed, bowing their heads. Song Jiang said: "The little man with a literary face, the crime is full of heaven, the humiliation of the nobles is here, and the reception is too late, so I hope to beg for forgiveness." Li Yuhou said: "Taiwei is a noble minister of the imperial court, and it is not trivial to come to recruit you! How can such a leaky boat be driven by a village thief who doesn't know what happened, and almost miss the life of a nobleman!" Song Jiang said: "I have a good ship here, how dare I use a leaky boat to carry nobles!" Zhang Gan said, "The placket of the Taiwei is wet, how can you cheat!" Song Jiang's back of the five tiger generals followed, not leaving the left and right, and there were eight hussars in front of the crowd, seeing this Li Yuhou, Zhang Ganban pointed fingers in front of Song Jiang, you come and I go, I have the heart to kill this guy, but Song Jiang is in the way, I don't dare to start.

On the same day, Song Jiang invited the captain to get into the sedan chair, read the edict, and invited him to the sedan chair four or five times. led two horses, ran with Zhang Gan, and Li Yu waited. These two men and women, I don't know how old they are, pretending to be stinky, Song Jiangyang can get on the horse, so that everyone brags and catches up with the three passes. Song Jiang and more than 100 other leaders followed behind, straight to the front of the Zhongyi Hall, dismounted together, invited the captain to the hall, and put the imperial wine edict box on the front, Chen Taiwei, Zhang Ganban, Li Yuhou stood on the left, Xiao Rang, Pei Xuan stood on the right. When Song Jiang called the leaders, there were 17 people, and only Li Kui was missing. At this time, it was the weather in April, and they all wore jackets, knelt in the hall, and listened to the reading. Chen Taiwei took out the edict in the edict box, and he and Xiao Rang. Pei Xuan's praise ceremony. After the generals bowed, Xiao Rang unfolded the edict and read it aloud:

The system said: Wen can be anbang, and Wu can set the country. The five emperors had a territory by virtue of etiquette and music, and the three emperors determined the world by killing. Things are obedient and disobedient, and people are virtuous and foolish. I inherit the great cause of my ancestors, open the glory of the sun and the moon, and lead the earth all over the world, and I will not surrender. Near the Ersong River and other roaring mountains and forests, robbing the county, I wanted to use Zhangtian to beg, and I was afraid of working for my people. Chen Zongshan, the captain of the mission, came to recruit An, and the edict arrived, that is, he should have money, food, weapons, horses, ships, and pay officials, demolish the nest, and lead him to Beijing, so as to be exempted from this crime. If you still have a bad conscience and violate the edict, once the heavenly soldiers arrive, you will not be left behind. Therefore, it is hereby decreed that it is advisable to know.

On the April day of Mengxia in the third year of Xuanhe, Xiao Rang only read it, and Song Jiang and the following were angry; I saw the "Black Whirlwind" Li Kui jumping down from the beam, so Xiao Rang snatched the edict in his hand, smashed it, and grabbed Taiwei Chen, dragged his fist and beat him. At this time, Song Jiang and Lu Junyi both hugged him sideways, and they were willing to let him go. Just when it was dismantled, Li Yuhou shouted, "Who is this guy, dare to be so bold!" Li Kuizheng didn't look for someone to beat, so he grabbed Li Yuhou and beat him, shouting, "Who said the edict written?" Zhang Gan said, "This ...... Be...... The Emperor's Decree." Li Kui said: "Your emperor, I don't know that I have all the heroes here, come to recruit old men, but you have to be big! Your emperor's surname is Song, my brother's surname is also Song, you are the emperor, but my brother can't be the emperor! Don't come to annoy Daddy Black, and kill all your officials who wrote the edict!" Everyone came to persuade and pushed the "Black Whirlwind" out of the hall.

Song Jiang said: "Taiwei and relieved, don't think about having a half-star difference. and take the wine, and teach the people to be gracious." Immediately took a pair of inlaid treasure gold flowers, and ordered Pei Xuan to take a bottle of royal sprinkle and pour it into the sea of silver wine, but when he looked at it, it was the village mash liquor; Then open all nine bottles and pour them into the sea of wine, but it is an ordinary light village moromi. When they saw this, they were all shocked, and they all went down the hall one by one. Lu Zhi carried the iron Zen staff and scolded loudly: "Enter the mother and pinch the bird! Tescha is a bully! Make water and wine as royal wine to coax us to eat!" "Red-haired Ghost" Liu Tang also came up with a knife, "Walker" Wu Song pulled out a double-ring knife, "did not block" Mu Hong, and "Nine-Pattern Dragon" Shi Jin attacked together. The six leaders of the navy all scolded and went down. Song Jiang saw that it was not a word, so he turned sideways to block inside, and hurriedly passed the general's order, calling the sedan horse to escort the captain down the mountain, and suspend the teaching of the wounded. At this time, most of the four big and small leaders were about to make a fuss, Song Jiang and Lu Junyi had to get on the horse in person, escort the Taiwei and the number of cadres to the next three passes, and then bow to the crime: "If it is not for Song Jiang and others to surrender unintentionally, it is really the officials who drafted the edict who don't know the bend of my Liangshanbo. If you give a few kind words to compassionate memories, we will serve the country loyally and die without resentment. If the captain returns to the court, he will have good words." Hurriedly sent to the transition port, this cadre was so frightened that he was running to Jeju.

However, it was said that Song Jiang returned to the Zhongyi Hall and gathered the leaders to lead the banquet, and Song Jiang said: "Although the edict of the imperial court is unclear, all of you are also irritable." Wu Yong said, "Brother, you are obsessed! Zhao'an must have his own day, how can he blame the brothers for being angry? The court does not think of people! Now the gossip is stacked, and the elder brother has passed on the general's order: the horse army will tie up the horses, the infantry army will arrange the weapons, the navy will reorganize the ships, and sooner or later a large army will come to conquer. One or two battles kill others and kill them, and they don't return to the armor, and they are afraid of dreams, but then they will discuss again." Everyone said, "The military advisor is very right." And every man shall be discharged on that day, and every man shall return to his account.

Let's say that Chen Taiwei returned to Jeju and complained to Zhang Shuye about the edict of Yangsanbo. Uncle Zhang said, "Dare you say more!" Chen Taiwei said, "How many times have I dared to say a word!" Uncle Zhang said: "That being the case, it was in vain and things were ruined, so the captain hurriedly returned to Beijing and learned about the saints, without further ado." Chen Taiwei, Zhang Ganban, Li Yuhou and his party returned to Beijing from the starry night, met with Cai Taishi, and prepared to say that Liangshan Bo thief Kou's slander section. Cai Jing was furious when he heard this: "This guy is so rude! The dignified Song Dynasty, how to teach you this gang to run rampant!" Taiwei Chen cried: "If it weren't for Taishi Fuyin, the petty official's bones would be broken in Liangshanbo! Survive today, goodbye!" The Taishi immediately called Tong Shumi and Gao Yang's second lieutenant to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to discuss important military matters. When there was no time, they were all invited to the White Tiger Hall of the Taishi Mansion, the officials sat down, and Taishi Cai taught Zhang Ganban and Li Yuhou to say that Liang Shanbo was slandering. Captain Yang said, "How can this gang of thieves advocate recruiting him? Which one was the official in the first place?" Gao Taiwei said, "If I am in the court that day, I will definitely stop it, how can I be willing to do this!" Tong Shumi: "Rats, thieves, dogs, thieves, what a worry! If you are not talented, you will personally lead a military horse, and '* will sweep away the clear water and return at the fixed time." The officials said, "Come to hear about it." It's all scattered at the moment.

The next morning, the officials shouted long live, the monarch and the ministers finished the ceremony, and Taishi Cai went out of class to play the matter to the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven was furious and asked, "Who played the widow that day and advocated Zhao'an?" The courtier played in the middle of the matter: "This day is what the imperial historian Cui Jing said." The Son of Heaven taught Cui Jing to send Dali Temple to ask for guilt. The Son of Heaven asked Cai Jing again, "When this thief has been harming for a long time, who can be punished?" Master Cai said, "You can't be ambushed unless you have heavy troops. If the ministers are foolish, they will have the Privy Council themselves to lead a large army to sweep it away, and they may win in an instant." Tong Guan, the privy envoy of the Son of Heaven Sect, asked, "Is Qing Ken leading the troops to capture Liangshan Bo Caokou?" Tong Guan knelt down and said: "The ancients had a saying: 'Filial piety should be exhausted, loyalty is fulfillment', and the ministers are willing to follow the work of dogs and horses to get rid of the troubles of their henchmen." Gao Yu and Yang Jian are also guaranteed. The Son of Heaven immediately issued a holy decree, gave the golden seal talisman, and worshiped the privy envoy Tong Guan of the East Hall as the generalissimo, and let the military horses be selected and transferred from all over the place, and went to arrest the thieves in Liangshan, and set off on the day of departure. It is the marshal who is on the altar and raises his arms, and he is like a child when he is defeated.
