"Scholar, Song Gongming and I are about to part ways, what are your plans?"

After hearing Chao Gai's words, Wu Yong remained silent.

Everyone knows that Wu Yong used to be a teaching scholar, but few people know that Wu Yong once participated in the imperial examination and almost became the number one scholar.

Wu Yong's father was once a well-known talented scholar in Yuncheng County.

In the year of Dabi, he ordered Wu Yong to go to the capital to catch up with the exam.

Wu Yong was very competitive, and his essay was favored by the chief examiner, who wanted him to be the number one scholar.

However, Cai Jing had other ideas—Wu Yong’s article didn’t say anything, but in Cai Jing’s view, Wu Yong didn’t see him in his eyes. If he didn’t come to Cai Mansion to pay homage, he wouldn’t be able to offer generous gifts. If he became the number one scholar, how could he control him?

Therefore, in the early court when the number one scholar was selected, Cai Jing said: "Although Wu Yong's articles are good, his name is unlucky. If it is true that he is "useless" as the number one scholar, wouldn't it damage the image of the Song Dynasty?"

Zhao Ji thinks Cai Jing's words are justified, Jinkou finalizes: Wu Yong will never be hired!
Wu Yong's father didn't know about the above situation, but Wu Yong didn't win.

It was the year of the scientific examination again, and Wu's father ordered Wu Yong to take the examination again.

Wu Yong traveled to the vicinity of Caozhou, and met an old man who was drying wheat in the Lubei field.

Although the sun was high in the sky at that time, Wu Yong calculated that there would be heavy rain in the afternoon, so he told the old man to put away the wheat as soon as possible to avoid losses.

Unexpectedly, the old man smiled when he heard it: "No need. Although there is heavy rain, it doesn't fall to my field, and the gust of wind just blows the rustic atmosphere in the wheat."

really!

After a while, the southeast wind suddenly rose, dark clouds suddenly arrived, there was a thunderstorm, and heavy rain poured down.

The strange thing is that the water flows into a river on the south side of the road, but there is no rain on the north side of the road, only a gust of wind has passed.

Wu Yong suddenly realized: I have met an expert!

Since then, Wu has given up the idea of ​​obtaining fame and learning the Book of Changes and the Art of War from the "old man".

After three years of studying and returning home, Wu Yong was dismissed by his father as a "rebellious son" and expelled from the house.

Reluctantly, Wu Yong went to teach at Chao Gai's village, and took the name of "Scholar of Biao Zi, Mr. Jia Liang", and became acquainted with Chao Gai and gradually became close friends.

An old friend of more than ten years, how could Wu Yong have no feelings for Chao Gai?
But Wu Yong was still worried about Zhao Ji and Cai Jing who took his title of No. [-] Scholar back then, determined to become famous and famous all over the world, and wanted Zhao Ji and Cai Jing to see how wrong they were back then.

And going with Chao Gai obviously can't realize his lifelong ambition - Li Yan has too many advisers around him, Wu Yong is no less than one, and naturally he can't show Wu Yong's ability.

So, after being silent for a while, Wu Yong looked at Chao Gai and said, "Heavenly King, you can go down the mountain with your precious family members, and then go to vote for the governor. Remember, don't be on the master's side, either be a rich man, or Assuming an insignificant idle position, although the governor is not tolerant of sand, he values ​​friendship very much, and based on your friendship with him, as long as you don't do anything out of the ordinary, you should be able to enjoy your old age in peace."

Hearing Wu Yongzhi's words, Chao Gai let out a long sigh—a sigh, the old friend abandoned him and followed Song Jiang!Second sigh, my old friend of more than ten years actually thinks that he is not suitable to be the boss, but only suitable for living in retirement!
Sighing, Chao Gai said: "I just found out today that I, Chao Gai, are really not suitable to be the leader of this village!"

Dong Ping said: "Understood, hurry up and get down from the position of village head, and let Brother Gongming sit there!"

After finishing speaking, Dong Ping wanted to go up and grab Chao Gai down!
Li Cheng stepped in front of Chao Gai and said, "What are you going to do?"

Dong Ping was furious and said, "Go away!"

Li Chengdao: "How dare a beast be rude!", and then he wanted to fight Dong Ping!
Song Jiang said: "General Li wait a minute!"

Li Cheng glanced at Song Jiang and said, "What else does Chief Song have to teach?"

Song Jiangdao: "I also hope that the general will not interfere with today's affairs, and there will be rewards in the future!"

Li Cheng clenched his fists in the distance, and said: "I am ordered by the governor, who dares to be rude to Chao Tianwang and kill him without mercy!"

Hearing Li Chengzhi's words, Song Jiang's face sank, and he said, "The general voted for Li Yan?"

Li Chengdao: "It's not just me, all of us have joined the Liangshan Army."

Song Jiang looked at Zhu Dian and Lei Heng, and said, "You two also joined the Liangshan Army?"

Zhu Dian said: "The governor should answer me. If I am willing to surrender, I can take my family to live in Seoul. The chief officer should know that I didn't intend to fall into the grass, and my family didn't like it. Now this opportunity is rare. Please forgive me."

Lei Hengdao: "My old lady is worried all day long. Now I can go to Seoul to be a good citizen, and I can also be a neighbor with brother Zhu Dian. It's hard to refuse what I want in my life."

Zhu Ting hesitated for a moment, and said kindly: "The governor wanted to wipe out all of you, but it was the heavenly king who begged for you, so the governor asked the king to deal with you by himself, and the governor, quickly take the person who is willing to go with you. Let's go down the mountain."

Song Jiangdao: "You are all loyal people, how can you get involved with Li Yan, a rebellious official and traitor!"

Wen Da said: "Bold! The chief governor is the chief governor of the imperial court's Andong Protectorate. Why do you say that you are a traitor? How dare you, a little bandit, slander the great governor!"

Qin Mingdao: "Brother Gongming, what are you talking about with them? If you don't fight hard today, how can you settle the civil strife?"

Song Jiang was not willing to lose the capital he had accumulated over the years, so after hearing Qin Ming's words, Song Jiang picked up the wine glass beside him and threw it on the ground, saying: "Chao Gai, since you are not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous!"

Hearing Song Jiang throwing the cup, Qin Ming and Dong Ping immediately took Chao Gai from left to right!
At the same time, Li Kui, Li Gun, and Xiang Chong rushed into the Juyi Hall with five or six hundred knives and axes!

Obviously, Song Jiang was already prepared!
As Qin Ming and Dong Ping charged, one stared at Li Cheng and the other at Wen Da—in Qin Ming and Dong Ping's view, only Li Cheng and Wen Da could pose a threat to Chao Gai's side!
however!
What Qin Ming and Dong Ping didn't expect was that Li Cheng and Wen Da bypassed them and went straight to Song Jiang!

Just when Qin Ming and Dong Ping were stunned and wanted to stop Li Cheng and Wen Da, they suddenly appeared from behind Chao Gai!

As soon as the two appeared, they greeted Qin Ming and Dong Ping respectively!
Seeing Li Cheng and Wen Da rushing towards him, Song Jiang dodged to hide beside Guan Sheng, and then said: "I also ask the general to protect Song Jiang."

In theory, Song Jiang was very correct in doing so.

From Song Jiang's point of view, the five best martial artists in the Juyi Hall are Qin Ming, Dong Ping, Li Cheng, Wen Da, and Guan Sheng. Hao Siwen and Xuan Zan, who followed Guan Sheng's lead, stopped Li Cheng and Wen Da.

And as long as Guan Sheng and the others can block Li Cheng and Wen Da for a while, Qin Ming and Dong Ping should be able to kill those two little-known little people, and then capture Chao Gai. As for Li Ying, Zhu Dian, Lei Heng and others Let's not talk about whether they, who have always been neutral, will make a move. Even if they make a move, they can't stop Qin Ming and Dong Ping, the two fierce generals, and don't forget that Li Kui, Li Gong, Xiang Chong and other [-] swordsmen have already entered Yes, the longer it drags on, the better it will be for them.

Of course, the reason why Song Jiang dared to seek help from Guan Sheng was because Song Jiang knew Guan Sheng very well and knew that Guan Sheng would definitely stand on the side of the winner, and he, Song Jiang, was the winner!
But what surprised Song Jiang was that Guan Sheng didn't answer him for a long time!

Not long after, Guan Sheng's face became more serious than ever!
Not only Guan Sheng is like this, but everyone else is like this too!
Soon, Song Jiang thought of a terrible possibility, and then turned his head to watch the battle between Qin Ming, Dong Ping and those two little people!
At a glance, Song Jiang was shocked!
