Chapter 61 The Messenger

"Sanlang, if the Song Jiang bandits were put down this time, what would you plan to become the ninth-rank Baoyilang?" Zhou Ping quipped with a smile.

"Of course, I'm the first choice to marry a concubine!" Xue Liangwu replied naturally: "Look at this little girl from Kaifeng Mansion, a young man who is like a water. My wife is far from being married. She must marry her and rub her for a while."

"Haha!" Zhou Ping laughed at the ear, and was about to laugh a few words when footsteps came from outside. He hurriedly stood up and saw a young man of twenty-seven or eight coming from outside. Two servants followed him and said in a deep voice: "Are you two brother Han's messengers?"

Zhou Ping and Xue Liangwu hurriedly leaned over and bowed: "It's a villain!"

"Well, I have read Brother Han's letter!" Mr. Na Jia smiled and said, "I will talk about my father's affairs. He will just take care of the matter of pursuing the bandits of Song Jiang. No need to worry about my father. The important affairs of the court are important!"

"yes!"

"This is my letter to Brother Han, you can bring it back to Jeju!" Mr. Na Jia smiled slightly: "You two came from afar and should have you stayed in Tokyo for two days, but the matter of plagiarism is very urgent. You two pack up your luggage and set off quickly!"

"Yes!" Zhou and Xue hurriedly bowed and obeyed. The young master nodded and turned around and left. Xue Liangwu asked a servant who was left behind, "Dare you ask, who is this person just now?"

The servant sneered: "You don't even know him, so you've sent him a letter. This is the fifth son of the Grand Tutor, and the Xuanhe Palace of Emperor Shang Maode, Prince Cai, who is waiting in charge of the Xuanhe Palace!"

"I guess this person is the beautiful man's husband just now!" Zhou Ping couldn't help but feel an indescribable strange feeling in his heart when he heard this. Compared with other scholars and officials who had met before, this fifth young master Cai can be said to have the most kind attitude towards him as a martial artist, but for some reason, Zhou Ping couldn't feel good about him.

A few days later, Zhang Jiahe Village outside Jeju City was on the street.

In the study, a pretty maid's clumsy tea cakes were poured into the tea bowl, and then a small amount of boiling water was poured into the tea bowl. The boiling water mixed with the tea leaves to form a thick paste. The maid's maid poured a lot of boiling water into the tea bowl, and at the same time used the tea siren to strike and whisk the tea soup in the tea cup. During the whole process, the maid's movements had a beautiful rhythm, and the surface of the tea soup was kept in its original state. Even Zhou Ping, a completely amateur, seemed quite pleasing to the eye.

"Zhou Jianjian, is my maid a famous kung fu in Jeju?" Zhang Jiahe smiled and said, "I wonder if Zhou Jianjianjian can still see it?"

"My husband laughed!" Zhou Ping smiled bitterly, "I came from a farmer family. It's good to have a big bowl of tea to quench your thirst. How can I know how to fight tea?"

"It turns out that the prison guards are from poor backgrounds!" Zhang Jiahe smiled and said, "But heroes are not afraid of being low-born. Duke Wuxiang (referring to Di Qing) of this dynasty was also from poor backgrounds, and in the end they were also the most powerful minister. How could he know that the prison guards could not be like this?"

"My husband is so proud. How can you compare with Duke Wuxiang!" Zhou Ping smiled bitterly, but cursed in his stomach: "Who are you good to use to beat him, but you want to take Di Qing, a weak ghost. This guy was forced to death by civil servants in the position of Privy Councilor."

"Things of the world are unpredictable, so there is no need to be too arrogant in custody." Zhang Jiahe took out a letter from his arms and handed it over: "This is the news that Li Cheng came from Liangshan!"

"Oh!" Zhou Ping came over as if he had received a treasure, looked carefully, and thought about it. Zhang Jiahe, who was standing beside him, smiled and said, "How?"

"Some inside stories in the thief." Zhou Ping responded casually, and suddenly he whispered in a low voice: "If the husband is willing to help, the Liangshan bandits are not worthy of peace!"

Jeju Prefecture Military and Horses and Inspectorate Office.

"Brother Kong, after you arrive in Liangshan, you can go to the restaurant on the way to Tieqian Village and send him a letter from Master Zhang. After going up the mountain, you can act according to the opportunity. Li Cheng has already gone up the mountain first, and he will answer you if there is anything." Zhou Ping sat upright and ordered the man who obeyed the order.

"See the order!" The man took the order with his hands. He was wearing a round neck robe and a wide robe under him. He was carrying a Fan Yang hat and a bag on his back. He held an iron-headed stick in his hand, looking like he was about to go on a long trip.

"Okay, you go!" Zhou Ping nodded. He watched the man walk out, turned around and walked back to the hall. After a while, he came out and changed into a similar pair of clothes. He walked outside the yard and ordered more than 30 men dressed in the yard, "Pack up your house, have lunch and set off!"

"Here!" Everyone claimed no.

At this time someone next to him said, "A Ping!"

Zhou Ping looked back and saw that it was Xue Liangchen. He looked worried and said, "There are hundreds of bandits on Liangshan, how can you only bring more than 30 people?"

Zhou Ping smiled and said, "My husband, please rest assured. Although there are many bandits, I will not fight against him. I am afraid that he will do anything? Song Jiang has won the hearts of the people of Liangshanpo. If there are too many people, the news will leak out!"

"Okay." Xue Liangchen nodded: "It's just that I'm quite worried about Zhang Jiahe. This guy is afraid that he has a lot to do with the ** character. If he leaks his brother's affairs, wouldn't it be your life?"

"Don't worry, Zhang Jiahe also knows the benefits. Song Jiang threatens the imperial court's fortune on the Liangshan Pond, and will be wiped out by the officials sooner or later. He communicated with him before, but he could not make any profit from it. This time I have agreed with him. As long as he helps us to wipe out Song Jiang, he will naturally benefit him."

"People's hearts are separated from the belly--" Xue Liangchen was about to talk again, but was cut off by Zhou Ping's deep voice: "With you and me, how can you sit at home with wealth? Even if there is a risk, you can only try it. Please sit in the city and wait for my good news!" After that, Zhou Ping bowed to the ground and stood up and left regardless of it.

Liangshanpo.

Liangshanbo is also known as Liaoerwa, Dayeze, Juyeze, Anshan Lake, and Dongping Lake. Later generations only silted down to a small piece of Dongping Lake. This place is close to the Grand Canal in the west, connected to the Dawen River in the east, and connected to the Yellow River in the north, which is a canal transport hub. At that time, Kaifeng was built in Kaifeng, with a million Dingkou, and it was far away. Although it was beyond the reach of the Han and Tang Dynasties. In addition, Kaifeng was located in Pingyi, there was no danger to defend, so the founding ancestors of the country were stationed with elite troops from the world, and there were no fewer than hundreds of thousands of imperial guards near Kaifeng. But in this way, the river transport was transported by the two founding ancestors.

It became a major event related to the lifeline of the Northern Song Dynasty. Various wealth and grain transported from all over the world led along rivers to the heart of the empire, making Kaifeng a miracle of an agricultural society at that time. Now with bandits in Liangshanpo, they can attack the prosperous water transport ships through convenient waterways and obtain huge benefits. This is also why Song Jiang was just a small bandit of hundreds of people, which could disrupt the unrest in the Northern Song Dynasty at that time.

Tiegu Village. Beside the waters of Liangshanpo, because it is said that the birthplace of the famous Liang general Tiegu Wang Yanzhang during the Five Dynasties was nearby, the locals built a temple here to worship this fellow villager and called it the Tiegu Temple. Later, the times moved, and the temple gradually became dilapidated, so the locals called it Tiegu Village. A few years ago, a man came from Jeju and opened a restaurant by the waters next to the village. By the way, he also collected some local fish goods for some banned transactions. The man's surname was Lu Xun, and the locals called Shunkou, so he called this restaurant "Shunlu Restaurant".

Like most of these small hotels in the Song Dynasty, this restaurant was just a wild shop next to the water, with some rags. The thatch appeared in the dark black after soaking in the rain. Most of the pavilion was hanging in the water with its feet hanging diagonally. The wooden railings were already nearly black. Under the railings, there was a small boat tied, which was very common near Liangshanpo.

This day was the day of the market. The fishermen nearby brought their family fish goods to the restaurant, sold fish goods, bought some salt tea and other daily necessities, and ate a glass of water and wine in the store. Due to the Song Jiang uprising, the officials nearby did not dare to come to the water pond to collect rent and tax. Therefore, the fishermen nearby lived much better than in previous years, and had a few more cents in their hands. The restaurant along the way was also much lively. Not only were the store full of people, but there were even many people standing or sitting on the beach outside the store. The fishermen all knew that the salt tea they had taken was much cheaper than the government, and many people were willing to come here to buy it.

At this time, a strong man walked over the road, more than seven feet tall, with a solid body, wearing a soap robe, wearing a Fan Yang hat, carrying a big bag, carrying a waist knife around his waist, and holding an iron-headed rod in his hand, dressed as a guest from afar. The man walked to the pavilion, looked at the hanging wine tricks, and shouted at the top of his throat: "Is this a road restaurant in Tieqin Village?"

A guy came up and smiled and said, "Yes, the guest officer wants to be the best?"

The strong man continued to ask, "Then is your shop owner named Lu Xun?"

The guy looked ugly when he saw that the strong man didn't seem to be trying to have a meal, and he had a foreign accent, and said coldly: "That's right, are you doing something?"

"That's it!" the strong man smiled and said, "Come on two cents for me and bring some good wine, pick some meat and vegetables. I'll tell your boss for me, and I'll say I was sent by Zhang Daguan outside Jeju City, and I'll ask him for help if you have any questions!"

The guy immediately became attentive when he heard the words "Zhang Daguanren outside Jeju City", and quickly moved a table from the pavilion to the river beach. He wiped it carefully and said with a smile: "Please wait a moment, the wine and food will arrive soon. The boss goes to a nearby village to buy fresh fish. It will take another hour to come back!"

The man sat open on the bench with his legs spread out, put the package on the side of the table, and then slapped the table and said, "It's okay, just bring the wine and food quickly. Some family has been on the road for a morning and is so hungry."

"Okay!" The waiter responded, and soon the wine and food were presented like flowing water. The man chewed on the case and was eating happily. Suddenly someone whispered: "I wonder what this guest official has to do?" 2014 is here. Weber wishes everyone good health and all the best in the new year. He also hopes that everyone will continue to support "Shuofu Storm". Weber is not a person who likes nonsense. The writer's task is to write well and write good things.
