"Who is a righteous man and what do you want to do?"
Su Yuanjing felt panicked. He was just ordered to come to offer incense and pray for blessings. Why was he being robbed?
"This villain is the leader of the rebels of the Qingzhou Alliance, Song Jiang, named Gongming. I heard that the Liangshan bandits wanted to murder the Taiwei, so I brought my brothers to protect you."
Song Jiang got on the boat and bowed his head to Taiwei Su Yuanjing, flatteringly showing his identity.
"Oh, that's it. I heard that the righteous man was forced to go up the mountain and fall into the grass. Now he comes to protect me personally, which makes me deeply honored. I wonder if the righteous man is willing to accept the imperial court's recruitment?"
Su Yuanjing was in the officialdom for a long time and saw that Song Jiang was polite. He also wanted to use Song Jiang to deal with Liangshan soldiers and horses. He was also very polite and took the initiative to ask Song Jiang about his willingness to recruit troops.
The imperial court had different attitudes towards local forces. As for the traitor party headed by Cai Jing, whether they were Fang La, Tian Hu, Wang Qing, Wang Lun, Song Jiang and others, as long as they were against the imperial court, they should send a large army to exterminate them and kill the chickens as a warning to the monkeys.
However, for officials like Su Yuanjing who have a bad relationship with Cai Jing, this group of people revolted in the name of getting rid of Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, Zhu Meng and other treacherous officials, instead of directly shouting to knock down the emperor, they can use this
Help others to fight against Cai Jing and other traitors.
In addition, there are ministers such as Zhang Shuye. Now that the Song Dynasty is full of wars and uprisings are happening everywhere, if we send a large army to suppress them, it will consume a lot of wealth. The burden on the court is too heavy, so it is better to save money by recruiting peace.
Since the positions are different, the attitudes will naturally be different.
"Enxiang is really a noble person from Song Jiang. In the morning, the villain met the Nine Heavens Xuannv in his dream. He once said that he would be overjoyed when he met him, and it was true. The villain was killed by a traitor and had no choice but to fall into the grass. However, he was loyal to
Officials. The three words "Loyalty Hall" hung high in the meeting hall of our Qingzhou Alliance are Song Jiang's reminder to all brothers to be loyal and righteous. The banner of our Qingzhou Alliance is to obey the heaven and protect the country, which means to comply with the officials and protect the country."
"Song Jiangquan's sincere heart hopes that Taiwei will be aware of it and that Zhao Guanjia will be aware of everything and issue a decree as soon as possible to pardon our sins and give me a chance to serve the country!"
Song Jiang was impassioned and cried bitterly, trying his best to show Su Yuanjing that he was forced to go up the mountain and that he was a loyal emperor.
After Song Jiang formed the Qingzhou Alliance, he widely publicized that he had received three volumes of heavenly books from the Nine Heavens Xuannv, learned the art of war and formations, and was protected by the Nine Heavens Xuannv, which increased his mystery.
"The righteous man understands the righteousness well, but now he is just trapped in the shallows. When I return to the capital, I will report to the officials that you are loyal and let them issue the imperial edict as soon as possible."
"It's just that the Liangshan bandits are blocking the road ahead. I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the capital. It's hard for Your Majesty to know your loyalty."
Su Yuanjing assured Song Jiang, and at the same time looked at the Liangshan troops in front of him with embarrassment. They were not easy to mess with.
"Don't worry, Lieutenant. Song Jiang personally leads his brothers to protect him, and he will definitely be able to protect you from returning to the capital."
"Come on, give the gift to Mr. Taiwei."
"Set the boat and escort the master back to Beijing to avoid disturbance. Ask Qin Ming, Hu Yanzhuo, Yang Zhi and others to stop the water and dock at Liangshan."
Seeing that Su Yuanjing had a good attitude, Song Gongming stood up and shouted majestically at the minions around him. The boss was very impressive.
"Song Yishi is too polite. He is just thinking about the common people and doing his best for the country."
When Su Yuanjing saw that Song Jiang had three large boxes brought in by someone, and when he opened them, they were all filled with yellow, orange, white, gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, and his attitude towards Song Jiang became even better.
"It's just a small gift, I hope you will accept it with pleasure. When the officials issue the imperial edict, I will have a big thank you."
Song Jiang quietly handed Su Yuanjing a gift list. These boxes were only one-tenth of what was on the gift list. Of course, he would only give it after everything was done. These three boxes could be regarded as sincerity money.
Song Jiang gathered in Yiyi, gathered Taohua Mountain, Baihu Mountain, Erlong Mountain, Qingfeng Mountain, Duiying Mountain, Yinmachuan, Huangmen Mountain, Kushu Mountain and other mountains, and then broke Qingzhou and looted Qingzhou's treasury.
Gold and silver jewelry are definitely indispensable.
"Brother Song, please have a drink with me."
Su Yuanjing's heart beat wildly. Song Jiang was rich and he took the initiative to invite him to join him for a drink.
"Your Majesty, please, I'll sit with you. I'll give you a drink."
Song Jiang flattered Su Yuanjing and was good at dancing, so much so that Su Yuanjing almost became a brother of the opposite sex.
"Brother Gongming~"
Xiao Li Guanghuarong on the side hesitated to speak. He looked at Song Jiang with complicated eyes and kept comforting himself in his heart. Brother Gongming was just a temporary solution. Brother Gongming was thinking about the future of his brothers.
"Brother Hua Rong, what's the matter?"
Song Jiang wanted to make friends with Su Yuanjing, but when he saw Hua Rong's constipation, he still asked in a low voice.
"The people and horses in Shuibo Liangshan are fierce, and our minions are going to lose."
Hua Rong temporarily put aside the discomfort in his mind and analyzed the situation of the battle between the two armies to Song Jiang. Their Qingzhou Alliance currently has no advantage, and Wang Lun's Liangshan troops are more fierce.
"You lead a group of archers to stop the Liangshan troops. Lord Taiwei, please take shelter with me~"
While Song Jiang ordered Hua Rong to resist the Liangshan troops, he urged his men to quickly protect Su Yuanjing and retreat along the river.
"promise!"
Hua Rong led the archers with a hail of arrows, suppressing the charging Liangshan troops, and finally covered Su Yuanjing's escape by boat.
"Oh, it's a pity that Liang Shanshui's army was not transferred here, otherwise how could the lieutenant escape?"
"Damn Song Jiang, we originally wanted to use Su Yuanjing to save Lu Zhishen and Shi Jin, but this Song Jiang ruined our plan."
Wang Lun was very unhappy, you Song Jiang, we are now in the green forest, don't even say we are here to help each other, you colluded with the government and spoiled my plan.
"If we don't act quickly, when Huazhou City receives the news and the city gate is closed, we won't be able to capture Huazhou City even if we all go out."
Zhu Wu was also a little worried at this time. If the delay continued, he was afraid that the imperial court would send troops to conquer, and the imperial troops might even be on the way.
"Xue Yong, Shi Yong, and Yang Lin, the three of you have been in Liangshan for a short time, and there are many people in the government who don't know each other. You three sneak into the city and try to rescue Shi Jin and Lu Zhishen."
Wang Lun had no choice but to send undercover agents again, and these were the only three less conspicuous leaders around him.
"Yes, village master, don't worry."
"We will definitely complete the mission."
"Let's go~"
Xue Yong took the lead, together with Shi Yong and Yang Lin, infiltrated into Huazhou City. Wang Lun had no choice but to lead his troops back to Shaohua Mountain first, and sent some soldiers to sneak into the city.
After Song Jiang rescued Su Yuanjing, under Hua Rong's reminder, he remembered that their Qingzhou Alliance general Hua Heshen Lu Zhishen was still imprisoned in Huazhou City. He quickly reported the matter to Su Yuanjing, and Su Yuan
Jing was also very cooperative, writing a personal letter and giving Song Jiang some tokens.
"Thank you, sir."
Song Jiang respectfully saluted Su Yuanjing, handed the letter and tokens to his subordinates, and asked him to go to Huazhou City to ask for the person.
"Brother Song, I want to rush back to the capital as soon as possible to report Brother Song's wishes to the Holy One and ask the Holy One to issue an edict as soon as possible."
Seeing that Su Yuanjing was far away from the Liangshan people, he now wanted to remember to leave the dangerous place of Huazhou and return to the capital to feel at ease.
"Then, thanks to your great efforts, Mr. Taiwei, the great cause of Zhao'an is accomplished. I will personally pay ten times the gift list to visit the favored minister."
Song Jiang was also anxious for Zhao'an, so he no longer tried to persuade Su Yuanjing to stay, but sent someone to escort him for a while and sent Su Yuanjing out of Huazhou.
