Water Margin people

Chapter 485

In Qingzhou Mansion, Qin Ming's house, the doors and windows are closed.

"Squeak."

There was a rattling sound in the yard.

"Where do the mice come from in the winter?"

A woman's voice came, holding a broom and opening the door to beat mice.

"Who are you? This is Director Qin's residence."

As soon as the woman opened the door, she saw a slender man standing at the door, looking at her with a smile on his face. The woman raised her broom vigilantly to beat her.

"Mistress Qin, don't do anything, just listen to me first."

Shi Qian was not afraid of a woman's broom, he said with a smile.

"There are officers and soldiers outside, and they will come in if I shout."

Mrs. Qin was not in a hurry to fight. Now that Qin Ming is not here, the family of women and children can only scare the people in front of them first.

She had heard that the thieves made a lot of trouble in the mountains, and the army that had left the city before was defeated and rebelled. The magistrate was worried that the thieves would sneak into the city and ignore the officials' families, so they sent troops to guard outside.

"Miss Qin, although I am a thief, I am not in the same group as those in Qingzhou. I am here today to save Qin Ming's family."

Shi Qian said with a smile.

"If you don't go away, I'm going to call someone."

Lady Qin didn't let go of the door, she was guarding with a broom horizontally, there were only the old mother, young daughter and two maids in the room, they couldn't stop the thief in front of her at all.

"Is it so difficult to be a good person!"

Shi Qian smiled helplessly, this world is really the same as what Sun Lei said, it is difficult to be a good person, but easy to be a bad person, so above Liangshan are all bad people in the eyes of the world.

"Miss Qin, you'd better listen to me, it's good for your family! If you yell, I guarantee that everything will be settled before outsiders come in."

Shi Qian directly pulled out a gleaming dagger and threatened with a grim expression.

Seeing the dagger, Mrs. Qin's expression changed drastically, and she took a step back unconsciously. Just as Shi Qian said, a family of women and children couldn't stop Shi Qian holding the dagger.

"What exactly do you want to do, Manager Qin will come back right away!"

Seeing Shi Qian entering the room, Mrs. Qin plucked up her courage and said.

"Miss Qin, you don't need to bluff. The outsiders are not protecting you, but are putting you under house arrest. If the battle in the mountains goes wrong, Mr. Qin, Murong Yanda will immediately kill you. To put it bluntly, you are just controlling Qin Ming. hostages."

Shi Qian looked at Lady Qin and said.

"In addition, I can tell you that Director Qin's frontal attack is not going well, and most of the people in Erlongshan will repeat the old tricks and use the method of forcing Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng to force Qin Ming. At that time, what will Murong Yanda do? Let me explain."

Shi Qian cast his gaze into the house. Two maids were tremblingly hiding behind an old woman, and a little girl was holding the old woman's leg in fear. This was Qin Ming's whole family.

"You... who are you!"

Mrs. Qin was a little panicked. She knew their current situation very well. Now that Qin Ming was not around, the whole family depended on her.

"Liangshan hero!"

Shi Qian smiled and raised his head and said.

"Liangshan!"

Lady Qin looked shocked. Even though she seldom went out, Liang Shanbo has been too popular in the past year. She has heard a lot of deeds, and Qin Ming also dealt with Liangshan people twice, although they were defeated. , but fortunately everyone is safe and sound.

"You...you want to blackmail Director Qin with us!"

Lady Qin immediately put on a guarded look again, no matter what Shi Qian said, she could not change Shi Qian's identity as a thief, and she was more willing to trust the magistrate's yamen.

"Miss Qin, if I want to harm you, do I still need to talk so nonsense? Blackmail Manager Qin? I, Liangshan, never do such things, let alone if I go out, can Qin Ming stop it?"

Shi Qian looked at Lady Qin and said, Qin Ming is no match for everyone in Liangshan.

Only now did Lady Qin believe a little bit, but she had heard from Qin Ming that the people of Liangshan were powerful. It was said that several of them were not inferior to Qin Ming in martial arts, so there was really no need to use the despicable means of kidnapping family members.

"It's getting late! Miss Qin, let's make a decision early, it will be too late when the incident happens."

Shi Qian looked at the crescent moon outside and said, the people from Erlong Mountain should be arriving soon.

"But there are people guarding outside!"

Lady Qin pointed to the outside of the courtyard and said in a low voice, since Qin Ming went to the barracks mansion, he was guarded by the magistrate's yamen, and even the servants were not allowed to go out.

"Don't worry, they're already asleep."

Shi Qian smiled and said, it shouldn't be too easy to stun a few guard soldiers.

When Shi Qian took Mrs. Qin and the others to go out, Mrs. Qin saw the soldiers who had fainted on the ground.

At night, the streets of Qingzhoufu were empty, Shi Qian quickly brought people near the city wall, Ma Ling had already led people to wait here, and the ropes for leaving the city were all ready.

Just as the group left Qingzhou Mansion, there was a burst of shouting and killing.

"It looks like it's started!"

Shi Qian looked in the direction of Qingzhou Mansion, and by the light of the fire, he could see a group of "official troops" attacking the villages and towns outside the city, but the people in the villages and towns who were killed in the previous killing had long since hid in Qingzhou Mansion, and no one was found to kill them. Army" directly set fire to it.

"It's Qin Ming's flag!"

Shi Qian smiled and pointed to the flag waving in the firelight. It was a red flag with a large inscription "Qin Tongzhi, Chief of Soldiers and Horses", which was Qin Ming's general flag.

"Impossible, the officials went to suppress the bandits, how could they come to burn, kill and loot!"

Mrs. Qin had a look of disbelief. Although Qin Ming had a hot temper, he would not do such a thing.

"It's all just pretending."

Ma Ling sneered, there is still a big difference between soldiers and minions, but it's a pity that Murong Yanda is an idiot and can't see these at all.

Only then did Lady Qin realize that what Shi Qian said was true, and the thieves in Qingzhou wanted to harm them.

Shi Qian and Ma Ling took Qin Ming's family and did not go far, so they found Jianshan Temple ten miles outside the city to stay temporarily.

In the afternoon of the next day, Qin Ming and Huang Xin brought soldiers and horses to the Qingzhou mansion. Murong Yanda scolded Qin Ming in the city, and said that Qin Ming's family of thieves had fled privately. The remaining military flag of "Qin Tongzhi, Chief of Soldiers and Horses" was thrown down.

"Boss, we've been tricked!"

Huang Xin pulled Qin Ming and said that they were attacked by Song Jiang at the foot of Erlong Mountain, and the food and grass were burned by fire. Qin Ming couldn't take Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng, so he had no choice but to retreat to Qingzhou. The military flag was lost in the chaos.

"You soldiers still follow the traitor!"

Murong Yanda let out an arrow, and arrows flew down the city like locusts, Qin Ming had to retreat, and his soldiers fled. Now Murong Yanda believes that Qin Ming is rebellious, if they follow Qin Ming again, they will only burn themselves.

Qin Ming was devastated, and the defeat was fine, but now Murong Yanda misunderstood him, and he had nowhere to go at this moment.

"It's better to fight with Song Jiang and those people!"

Qin Ming gritted his teeth and said, the only way to prove his innocence now is to do so.

"Enguan, Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng are great, heroes don't suffer from immediate losses!"

Huang Xin quickly said, now that the soldiers have dispersed and there are only dozens of cronies left, how can they beat Erlongshan.

"What else can I do besides going to Erlong Mountain!"

Qin Ming was furious, and now he couldn't think of any other way except to go all out.
