Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 266 Divided against Courtesy

...

From a long distance away, Chao Gai, Song Jiang and others could see that Bai Sheng, who was a wretched man in the past, is very different today!
Today's Bai Sheng is riding on a tall white horse, wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, a top-quality armour, and a beam knife that is indistinguishable from Liu Tang's on his waist. Some points to the situation of the country.

Along the way, Bai Sheng was chatting with Wen and Wu on the left and right, and the three talked happily.

Watch behind the three of them.

First, there were more than 1000 people. Among these people, some were followers of Erlong Mountain, and some were like dealers.

These more than 1000 people pushed dozens of carts, which should be loaded with the [-] sets of upper class armor.

In addition, they lead a hundred fine horses.

These horses are really steeds, tall and strong, and they look like good horses in the north, far from being comparable to those dwarf horses in the south of the Yangtze River.

Looking back, there are five hundred horse troops moving in unison.

Obviously, these horsemen escorted these characters.

After a lot of effort, Chao Gai and others found Huang Xin.

Contrary to the high-spirited Bai Sheng, Huang Xin's complexion is very bad, it can be said that he has no charm at all-at this moment, Huang Xin is wearing old clothes with tattered bloodstains all over them, and he has no horse to ride. A group of minions were walking on the road together. If they were not acquaintances, they would not have recognized that this was Zhen Sanshan, who had commanded countless officers and troops before.

The huge gap between Bai Sheng and Huang Xin made Chao Gai and others even more puzzled, "What's going on?"

Ok!

Bai Sheng saw Chao Gai and others come back to greet him, and then he accused Wen and Wu on the left and right, and then galloped over on horseback.

This horse is really fast, and within a short while, it carried Bai Sheng to Chao Gai and the others, causing several horse lovers to have the evil idea of ​​taking the horse.

In front of the crowd, Bai Sheng got off his horse.

The clever little guy took over the reins from the white-headed leader who seemed to have made a fortune.

Bai Sheng came straight to Chao Gai and said, "Brother, I'm back."

During the whole process, Bai Sheng, who was half-hearted before, didn't even look at Song Jiang.

Chao Gai looked Bai Sheng up and down for a while, and said with a smile: "Brother looks more energetic today than before."

Bai Sheng said with a smile: "For my brother's sake, my outfit was rewarded by brother Li Yan. Brother Li Yan rescued me from Zhujiazhuang. Hearing that I am your brother, he immediately ordered Dr. An to treat me. Injured, then greeted with good wine and good meat, and rewarded me with a Korean concubine, that little lady, tsk tsk..." Thinking that there was still business to do, Bai Sheng put away the show and said: "The Zhujiazhuang incident was a misunderstanding , Brother Li Yan didn't know that Song... the leader is from our Erlongshan, he thought it was the leader Song who attacked Zhujiazhuang, so he shot and intercepted Zhujiazhuang.",
Taking a peek at Song Jiang, Bai Sheng said cautiously: "Brother Li Yan and Leader Song... have some grudges, and Leader Song almost betrothed Brother Li Yan's concubine, Brother Huarong's younger sister, to Leader Qin, um... I will discuss this matter with you brother in detail in the future, anyway, brother Li Yan did not know that it was our Erlongshan people who attacked Zhujiazhuang, so he intercepted it..."

When Bai Sheng mentioned Hua Baoyan, it immediately aroused Qin Ming's endless pain!

Because of Ruan Xiaoqi's three legs, Qin Ming was already incapable of handling human affairs, and he didn't even react when he saw a woman.

Children, brothers, and parents were all killed.

The old Qin's family obviously wants to cut off their children and grandchildren.

This hatred is inseparable!

Qin Ming gritted his teeth and said, "How could he not know that we are from Erlongshan? Could he be deaf? We have been in Erlongshan for nearly a year. Who doesn't know?"

If it were in the past, Bai Sheng would definitely say submissively: "Yes yes yes, Chief Qin is right."

But today is different from the past, Bai Sheng, who feels that he has a strong backer behind him, is not afraid of Qin Ming at all, and said: "Why is it impossible, brother Li Yan was not in Song Dynasty this year, he went to Korea and only came back a few days ago .”

Chao Gai asked in surprise, "Brother Li Yan went to Korea? Why did he go there?"

Bai Shengjiang straightened his chest, and said to You Rongyan: "Brother Li Yan went there to expand the territory, of course, I don't know about it, brother Li Yan has conquered nearly half of Koryo, and even the king of Koryo was defeated by Li Yan. Brother Yan has been captured. The two counties of Lelang and Zhenfan in Goryeo already belong to Brother Li Yan. Brother Li Yan has set up the Andong Protectorate there, and he is in command of the Great Governor. Tsk tsk, Brother Li Yan is the first in the world. He is a good man, as long as brother Li Yan is willing, he can become king now."

As soon as Bai Sheng said this, everyone from Chao Gai down was shocked and said, "How is this possible!"

Bai Shengdao: "How is that impossible? I have seen with my own eyes that one of brother Li Yan's family members is Princess Goryeo and the other is Lord Goryeo. I heard from the brothers in Liangshanbo that even the queen of King Goryeo is brother Li Yan." The concubines, the leaders of Liangshanbo are now either generals or high officials, and they are all very successful."

Song Jiang couldn't help but said: "It's impossible. If Li Yan is so good, why would he go back to Song Dynasty again? Wouldn't it be great to be a happy king in Koryo?"

Bai Sheng was willing to go all out today, saying: "Brother Li Yan's vision is unmatched by ordinary people like us. He came back for a reason. If we can understand these reasons, we can all become kings."

After being slapped by Bai Sheng, Song Jiang's black face immediately turned purple eggplant color!
Song Jiang didn't expect that even Bai Sheng would dare to choke him now!

How did he, Shandong Hu Baoyi and Timely Rain, Song Gongming get into such a state?

Qin Ming looked at the desolate Huang Xin in the distance, and said coldly: "Did Li Yan mistreat brother Huang Xin? Otherwise, how could he be so miserable?"

Bai Sheng said: "Don't accuse good people, our wounds were tortured by Zhu Biao."

Speaking of this, Bai Sheng couldn't help but glanced at Song Jiang, hatred flashed in his eyes, and then he pretended to be calm and said: "In those days when I was trapped in Zhujiazhuang, I had to eat thirty or fifty lashes of Zhu Biao every day. It’s not that my life is hard, I don’t know how many times I’ve died, when I was rescued by Li Yan’s brother, I was only breathing, thanks to An Shen’s doctor’s excellent medical skills, otherwise, I would have died without a life.”

After a pause, Bai Sheng continued: "Boss Huang Xin also suffered a lot from Zhu Biao, but he was arrested for a short time, and the torture he suffered is incomparable to mine. It looks like he was hurt more than me, that's because I'm Brother Chao Gai's brother, and I was cured with all my strength after receiving Miracle An's doctor. For brother Chao Gai's sake, repaying kindness with grievances, how could... you think so?"

Although what Bai Sheng said was vague, everyone understood that Bai Sheng was Chao Gai's brother. Therefore, Li Yan not only tried his best to treat him, but also sent him a good horse, brocade clothes, armour, knife, and so on. My concubine, Huang Xin is Song Jiang's brother, saving his life is for Chao Gai's sake, how can he heal his wounds?
Song Jiang's face immediately turned livid!
Chao Gai tried his best to suppress the pride on his face!
At this time, Zhang Qing and Lehe came over.

Chao Gai hurriedly led someone forward to greet him, and said, "You two brothers have worked hard!"

Zhang Qing and Le He didn't push them too hard, they dismounted early and greeted Chao Gai.

Lehe then said: "My elder brother said that although he didn't know first, it was our Liangshanbo who cut Erlongshan's plate and killed many Erlongshan's brothers by mistake. King Chao's brotherly love, so I was ordered to return all the captured brothers of Erlongshan to King Chao, and to compensate King Chao for 720 two farmers of Zhujiazhuang, and to send another [-] horses and [-] soldiers. Jia and King Chao, by the way, my elder brother also confessed that King Chao will take salt in the future, and the price will be reduced by [-]%, all of which should be his atonement for King Chao."

Hearing Le He's words, Chao Gai's mind became brighter, and he hurriedly said, "Brother Li Yan is so polite, it's just a misunderstanding."

Le He said: "Please forgive me, King Chao."

Chao Gai said: "Brother, it's okay to say."

Le He said: "Some things are misunderstandings, and some things are not misunderstandings. My elder brother is the most upright by nature, and he doesn't look down on hypocritical villains, so this happened."

After hearing Lehe's words, Li Kui and others wanted to get angry!
But after taking a look at Zhang Qing, who was standing calmly beside Lehe, and the [-] Ma Jun who were like wolves and tigers, and thinking about the ferocity of Liang Shan's army, most of the anger of Li Kui and others disappeared immediately.

Chao Gai said: "It is indeed a misunderstanding. I will talk to Brother Li Yan about this in person in another day. Brother Gong Ming is also an honest man, not a villain..."

Le He smiled, and said: "My elder brother welcomes King Chao, Brother Liu Tang, and Army Master Wu to visit Liangshanbo, who else..."

Speaking of this, Le He looked at the leaders behind Chao Gai, and asked, "Excuse me, who is Huo Chuan'er Brother Zhang Heng, and which one is Brother Xue Yong?"

Zhang Heng and Xue Yong glanced at each other, stepped out, and said: "I am Zhang Heng.", "Next is Xue Yong."

Le He first rushed to Zhang Heng and said: "Brother Zhang Shun asked me to tell my brother that if I have time, I will go to Liangshanbo for a sit-down. He and my old lady miss you, brother can go there with brother Chao Gai."

Zhang Heng hesitated for a moment, then clasped his fists and said, "Uh...okay."

Lehe rushed to Xue Yong again: "Brother Hou Jian doesn't want to come back, it just so happens that my elder brother also lacks a leader who knows how to make clothes and flags, so he is left behind. Brother Hou Jian said that he has nothing to worry about, except Xue Brother Yong, when King Chao Tian goes to visit Liangshanpo, brother should also go there together."

Thinking that Li Yan has already occupied half of the country in Koryo, and he dare not talk nonsense about his prospects. At the worst, he can be like a prince, so he said: "Well... if I have time, I... I will go and have a look."

After notifying Zhang Heng and Xue Yong, Le He bowed his hands to Chao Gai again, saying: "King Chao, I have brought the people, things and words, and I will take my farewell."

Chao Gai stayed and said: "You two brothers, play in Erlong Mountain for a few days before going back."

Le He glanced at Song Jiang, and said: "We still don't want to blame this, and there are many things at home that need to be done by the two of us. Let's stay in Qingshan and see you in Liangshanbo in the future."

After speaking, Lehe and Zhang Qing took their leave.

After Song Lehe and Zhang Qing left, Chao Gai turned to Song Jiang and said, "My dear brother, don't worry too much. I will personally go to Liangshanbo to resolve the misunderstanding between you and Brother Li Yan."

Song Jiang squeezed for a few times before he forced out a smile and said, "Don't bother the Heavenly King, there is no misunderstanding between me and him."

Chao Gai couldn't help but persuaded again: "My dear brother, why are you bothering, Brother Li Yan, he..."

Song Jiang interrupted Chao Gai and said, "Hedong for 30 years, Hexi for 30 years, I, Song Jiang, may not always be inferior to him!"

Chao Gai knew he had no choice but to shut up.

On the way back, Li Ying suddenly turned around and chatted with Chao Gai very affectionately.

For a moment, it seemed that the mountain was filled with the sound of the two talking and laughing.

Liu Tang and Bai Sheng followed closely behind Chao Gai.

Even Zhang Heng and Xue Yong looked sideways at Chao Gai frequently.

Plus Li Ying's loyal servant Du Xing.

Before he knew it, Chao Gai had the potential to fight against Song Jiang.
