Chapter 154: Trick after Count
On the second day, a messenger from Naliangshan arrived and sent Liu Tang's head in a box.
Song Jiang saw the head of the Liu Tang brothers, his voice and smile were like in front of him, his heart was full of sorrow, and he cried bitterly.
After everyone persuaded for a long time, Song Jiang stopped crying and wiped his tears with his sleeve.
He stepped down the stairs and came to the messenger, who hurriedly retreated, worried that he would do something, but saw Song Jiang take out a large silver ingot from his sleeve and hand it over, and said:
"Brother Lao sent me Brother Liu Tangxian's head back, a little heart, please accept it."
The messenger was just an errand boy cottage leader, and when he saw the silver tael, his throat squirmed, and he took the silver tael into his arms.
"I haven't asked yet, what do you call my brother?"
The messenger politely replied: "The villain Li Da is now a little boss in the hotel under the mountain. ”
Song Jiang took another ingot of silver and handed it over.
"Brother Li Da, Xiao Ke still has one more thing to ask for, and Brother Wanwang will help."
Li Da stared at the silver in his eyes, but he didn't dare to stretch out his hand indiscriminately, but just asked:
"What do you want to do?"
Song Jiang arched his hand and said: "I want me to fall in love with Brother Liu Tangxian at first sight and become close friends, but now the two of them are on their separate sides." ”
"Now I only ask my brother to secretly send back the body of my brother Liu Tang, so that my brother will not be in a different place."
"It would be better if we could send back Dong Dujian's body as well, and I will definitely be grateful."
Li Da lowered his head and thought about it, feeling that it was not a big problem, and he would not touch the moldy head of the leaders of the cottage, so he nodded and agreed, reached out and took the silver tael, and put it in his arms.
Who knew that Song Jiang took out another ingot of silver, handed it to him, and said:
"There is a second thing, I want to ask my brother for help."
Li Da's hands are short, and he can't open his mouth if he refuses.
Song Jiang didn't embarrass him, and said:
"Brother, don't worry, it's just a trivial matter to deliver a letter!"
Li Da let out a sigh of relief, took the silver and put it away, and said with a smile: "A certain book is here to deliver a message, and it is also appropriate to bring back the letter." ”
Who knew that Song Jiang took out four letters and said one by one:
"This is a letter from Xiao Ke to the leader of Wu Song, thanking him for letting me go privately. You and tell him in private, if you are reprimanded by that Li ghost, you might as well come to me, Song Jiang is waiting for you. ”
Li Da's face froze immediately, but Song Jiang didn't finish speaking, and continued to introduce:
"This second letter is a letter to the leader of Shi Jin, and the letter is written by his opening master, Li Zhong, a tiger general, who is now a deputy general in our army."
"This third letter is a letter to Lin Chong's leader, and the letter is written by his apprentice Cao Zheng, who is now a general in our army."
"This fourth letter is addressed to the three leaders of the Ruan clan, and the letter is written by their close friend Zhi Duo Xing Wu Yong, who is now the military advisor of our department."
"These letters only talk about old friendships, and there is no word of persuasion."
"If there is a gap, please ask my brother to tell Lin Chong in private that his apprentice is now also an official of the imperial court, and he is looking forward to it day and night, and wants to be an official in the same dynasty as his master."
After Song Jiang explained these letters, Li Da's face turned green, he shook his head again and again, and pushed back the two ingots of silver, and only shouted:
"You want to harm me!"
"I won't send such letters!"
"It's going to lose its head!"
Song Jiang stretched out his hand to hold him down, stared into his eyes and said:
"Then Ghost Li asked you to give me Brother Liu Tang's head, obviously you want to borrow my hand to kill you, is it possible that you still have to work for him?"
Li Da shouted:
"Nonsense!"
"The master of my family said that you are used to hypocrisy, and you categorically refuse to kill the messenger, so let me come, otherwise you will throw your head directly at the city gate."
Song Jiang sneered:
"Then I'll kill you now, who should you hate?"
"Is it me who killed you, or is it Ghost Li who lied to you?"
Li Da was dripping in a cold sweat, unable to speak.
Song Jiang stuffed the silver two into his arms again and said comfortingly:
"I'm just joking."
"You see, even that Li ghost knows that I am benevolent and righteous, what are you afraid of me doing?"
"Although you bring the letter back, if you are afraid that someone will find out, you will directly hand over the letter to your master of the village after you go back."
"As for whether Ghost Li wants to show these letters to other leaders after getting these letters, it has nothing to do with you."
Li Da's eyes were purring, and after thinking carefully for a while, he felt that this was the truth, and then he relaxed and put away the silver and letters.
He didn't dare not accept it, otherwise if he really offended Song Jiang, he was afraid that he would not be able to get out of this door.
was just about to leave, but heard Song Jiang say again:
"The letter can be handed in, but those two sentences, please don't forget it."
"As long as you don't say it, how does Ghost Li know that you have passed these words?"
The messenger stiffened, nodded slowly, and left.
When the messenger left, the surrounding people gathered around, each paid tribute to Liu Tang once, and then collected the head, only waiting for the body to be sent back before the joint burial.
When everything was done, everyone sat down and asked:
"Can Ghost Li be tricked?"
"What if the messenger really delivers the letter?"
Wu Yong shook the goose feather fan and said reservedly:
"This kind of thing is originally playing with people's hearts."
"Now, whether the messenger gives the letter or not, just this one thing will cause a lot of strife in the cottage, and it will be difficult to unite again."
"I think that Ghost Li is just a rough man, and when he becomes short-tempered, he will kill people, even if he doesn't have such a divisive plan, sooner or later he will definitely cause everyone to betray his relatives."
Hua Rong asked worriedly:
"That Brother Wu Song is a good man, shouldn't he be affected by me, but he was killed by that Li ghost?"
Wu Yong shook his head and said confidently:
"Brother Hua Rongxian, don't worry, that Wu Erlang will be safe."
Not to mention anything else, for the sake of that Wu Dalang has just made a meritorious service, it is impossible for Ghost Li to deal with Wu Er at this juncture, but it is difficult to say whether he has doubts in his heart.
Song Jiang also echoed beside him:
"That Li ghost is used to pretending to be benevolent and righteous, just look at the land he divides for the people."
"I feared that the people would be ignorant and deceived by him, but they would support the thief with all his heart, and let him form a foundation here."
When they heard this, they were all silent and worried.
"Haha......" Wu Yong suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, "Brother, don't worry, then Ghost Li can't be a big deal!" ”
"I thought that the Li thief was treating the people leniently, thinking that it was the foundation, but who knew that it was just grazing lambs, just waiting for the fat to grow and slaughter."
"According to the guy's own words, you have to fertilize leeks as well."
"He always says some inexplicable words, and it is useless to treat them well if the people's wisdom is not opened."
"What else does the thief say, the wealth of the world, the gentry are rich and strong, and the rest are divided into two percent, if you don't rob the gentry, is it difficult to rob the poor?"
"The reason why he exterminated the gentry was purely to rob wealth and food!"
"According to his exact words, it is to get rid of pests in the leek fields."
"He has never treated the people sincerely, let alone cared about the lives of the people, and the people he cared about were his own leeks and lambs!"
"The purpose of everything he does is to make his leeks grow more vigorously, and his lambs to grow fatter so that they can be harvested in the future."
"Even the soldiers on the mountain, they are not allowed to harm the people, nor for the people, but no one is allowed to break his military discipline!"
"It's ridiculous that the ignorant people were blinded by this windfall from heaven, but they didn't know that when they became rich, it was time for the sickle to be swung."
"Humph!"
"This thief has no foresight!"
"It is precisely because of this that a certain person said that he is just a first-class Huangchao and has no foundation."
When they heard this, they were all happy.
Song Jiang clasped his hands into fists, looked into the sky and prayed: "God bless me Great Song, let this thief have force, but he is a reckless man!" ”
Fu said worriedly:
"But the people were foolish, and saw only the fields that were allotted to them today, and they did not care what tomorrow would be."
"Now in the four surrounding counties of Liangshan Shuibo, the people praise the benevolence and righteousness of the Li thief, how should this be good?"
Wu Yong was not in a hurry when he heard this, and shook the feather fan again:
"I have a plan to isolate this Liang thief!"
"There is a way that three people become tigers, just by publicizing the evil deeds of that Liang Mountain thief, you can make that Li ghost notorious, and make the people disgusted and afraid of him."
"No matter how much land he gives to those foolish people, it will be useless!"
"We have the backing of the government, so I will let the Lizheng, Baozheng, household heads and elders in various places take charge of this matter."
"From now on, all kinds of evil and bad things in the countryside, if you can't find the right master, then everything will be done by Liangshan thieves!"
Wu uses this bad seed, there is no great wisdom, and the idea of yin damage is worse than the other, and it is more suitable to throw it opposite the protagonist as a villain.
