Chapter 184: The Protagonist
What's more, Pang He didn't want to fight, because the protagonist of this Jianghu Conference must have been successfully snatched by Song Jiang. Although www.biquge.info said that the purpose of this speech is the same, the scenery is not very pleasant. Faced with the whole guilty face, Pang He thought that Song Jiang's speech was over, and it should be the turn of the master, or Chao Gai, as well as Xue Ling and Xue Shaozhuang, but the reality is often not as good as people want. Song Jiang raised the bowl again and drank it all: "So..."
Song Jiang only burst out two words, so he was interrupted by a person: "I said Brother Song Jiang, since you have said so much, I think all the friends here understand that you don't need to say anything more." I'd like to share my thoughts on this matter. First of all, I came to Suzhou to have a lively scene. Suzhou City is lively, just like you said, these officers and soldiers are wandering around me all day and night, and it is really uncomfortable. Listening to what Brother Song Jiang said just now, I think there is some truth. However, we were originally safe and stable, and there were no incidents, and it was okay to arrive in two days on this day, but for so many days in a row, I was considerate of them, why didn't they understand us?"
The scene began to be in an uproar, and everyone began to express their opinions and discuss a lot. Pang He looked at the master, sitting naturally and calmly, without the intention of speaking. Song Jiang stood up again at this time: "I don't know what this brother is called?"
Dahan said: "Fa Ji, known as the Open Heaven Axe!"
Song Jiang said: "Brother Faji, I know your thoughts very well. Every brother present will have such feelings and feelings. As I said earlier, why the government wants to increase its military strength is to prevent the future. The so-called human hearts are separated from the belly, what we are thinking in our hearts, how we think, the government does not know, and we do not write it on our faces. The Imperial Court just saw that our increasing number of people felt unusual. Yes, it is very normal for us to be wronged, to be misunderstood, and to complain. But we should focus on the big picture. Brother Faji, do you know that if the imperial court is in turmoil, will this defense depend on us Jianghu sects? When foreign strong troops are pressing, how long can we hold out and how long can we resist? Have you ever thought about it, it is precisely because of the existence of the imperial court that the rivers and lakes have peace, and if the imperial court is turbulent, then our rivers and lakes will already be in chaos. The imperial court and the rivers and lakes are separated and inseparable from each other, which is very important for the meaning of peace in the world. Yes, you say now that you can't be considerate of the imperial court, but can you be considerate of the people of this world, they live under the imperial court and the rivers and lakes, they are innocent?"
"My name is Huang Jue, and I am known as Jiuyang Whip! According to what you mean, for the sake of the world, we will have to submit to the imperial court, even if they do something to us, we must resign ourselves to fate and let others slaughter us?" asked a young man who called himself Huang Jue, and many of the people present nodded, it seemed that they also had the same idea.
Song Jiang replied: "Brother Huang Jue, actually, what you said is right, and what you said is not right. First of all, the imperial court is indeed stronger than us, and it is absolutely impossible for us, the forces in the rivers and lakes, to wrestle with the imperial court. Our worries are not wrong at all, because there is a saying that it is called raising tigers for trouble. Sitting on the dragon chair, who doesn't want the country to be stable, the imperial court naturally doesn't want us to become strong, so there will be a strong potential opponent, and the same is true for us, right? What is our situation now, we didn't say that we want to be opposed, and our strength doesn't need the court to worry. So, we can sit here today. But if the court wants to eliminate us, of course we will not sit idly by. There is a saying that people are rivers and lakes. If the imperial court really wants to eliminate us, the rivers and lakes are so big, can we be easily eliminated, I don't think so, I think you should also know that this is impossible. Even if the dynasty has changed, the rivers and lakes are still there. So, what we're afraid of, we don't have to worry about at all, right?"
The two people, like representatives, expressed their questions and confusions, and they were all answered by Song Jiang one by one, and there was no commotion in those present, and they basically agreed with Song Jiang's words. You must know that rebelling against the imperial court, but the work of throwing your head and spilling your blood is not so easy for people living in the rivers and lakes to accept. Most people are casual rather than competing for fame and power. If you are greedy for fame and power, I am afraid that you will not be able to stay in the rivers and lakes. At least, it is to go back to join the military and make meritorious contributions, not to mention making such a lifeless sacrifice.
Chao Gai saw that everyone was silent, so he stood up, filled himself with wine, walked in front of Song Jiang, and also filled Song Jiang: "Brother Song Jiang, you are right, I admire Chao Gai! Come, I respect you!" After speaking, with a grunt, the wine was already drunk.
Song Jiang also drank the wine very happily: "Brother Chao, the award has passed, I just said my heartfelt words." Oh, by the way, I forgot about Zhou Dong Zhou's seniors!"
Then he said to his friends in the rivers and lakes: "I'm ashamed just now, let's listen to Zhou Dong Zhou's seniors, talk to us, what is going on in your imagination?"
When all eyes were on Zhou Dong, Pang He's master Zhou Dong slowly stood up: "Actually, Brother Song Jiang, I have already said everything I want to say. As for the matter, it is actually very simple, the governor of Jiangnan, Zeng Huaizeng, is indeed my friend in the imperial court before, of course, it is now, and it will be in the future. Suzhou City, I think everyone sees in their eyes, what Lord Zeng brought to the people, I believe that everyone here as long as they have been in Suzhou for a period of time will know that he is a good official. Yes, it may be in your eyes, it is the imperial court on both sides of Chu and Han, which has drawn a clear line. But in my heart no, he's my friend. At that time, he was really just looking for me to catch up, and we talked for a while. Everyone who saw it knew that we had been talking for a short time, and as for what they wanted to use me, I thought, I didn't seem to have anything to take advantage of. Someone asked me, what am I doing in Suzhou? At first, I didn't know what was going on in Suzhou. I haven't been to Gangnam for a long time, and I want to visit Gangnam. Like you, there have been unpleasant encounters. Those who have inquired about me know why I left the imperial court, and I disappeared for a few years. To be honest, I'm also worried, worried that the court will settle old accounts with me. After such a thing, even if you have a relationship with Master Zeng, it will inevitably cause some unnecessary troubles and misunderstandings. Originally, I didn't want to explain anything, I think that those who believe in me naturally believe in me, and those who don't believe in me, no matter how much I explain, it will be useless. I am invited here today, and I think I should also give you an explanation, I am now just a person from the rivers and lakes, not a person in the court. (To be continued.) )
