Water Margin people

Chapter 834 The Weird Liang Zhongshu

Two days later, Liangshanbo, Golden Beach.

Sun Lei led the crowd to welcome the return of Xu Guanzhong and others.

Xu Guanzhong went to the Kingdom of Jin in secret, so he couldn't welcome him with great fanfare and let outsiders know, but his own people still had to hold a ceremony.

"The salute is fired!"

Seeing the boats coming, Ling Zhen ordered loudly, the salutes that had been prepared a long time ago roared, but it was a pity that it was in the daytime, and the splendor of the fireworks explosion could not be seen.

"elder brother!"

Xu Guanzhong, Shi Qian, Ma Ling, Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhang Shun, and Hu Yanqing got off the boat and worshiped Sun Lei.

"Everyone has worked hard on this trip!"

Sun Lei smiled and helped everyone up.

"Brother led people to fight like this in Liaodong, but it drove the Jurchens into a hurry. Wanyan Agu was furious and severely punished a group of people. He vowed to avenge this, and immediately agreed to form an alliance with Zhao Song to fight us Liangshan together. "

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile.

"Haha, let's go, the Juyi Hall has set up a banquet, let's talk while drinking!"

Sun Lei smiled and pulled Xu Guanzhong to the Juyi Hall.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Xu Guanzhong talked about what he had seen and heard in the Kingdom of Jin.

……

Daming House.

Mrs. Gu and Sun Xin were driving an ox cart full of pots, pans, tables, chairs and benches, as if they wanted to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to set up a stall in Daming Mansion to make money.

The bullock carts are mixed in the same team, as are other people's, some selling small handicrafts, and some singing and performing arts.

In the middle of the team, Wu Yong wore a black crepe scarf to wipe his eyebrows, a white silk Taoist suit with a collar and a soap edge, a pair of Lugong sash, a pair of green cloth shoes with double heads, and a pair of match gold wrought copper bells and pestles in one hand. , holding a paper sign in one hand, which reads "Talking about fate and chatting, one or two divination gold".

"Master Daoist, I'm afraid there are few people in the Daming Mansion who can afford your hexagram gold!"

A peddler carrying all kinds of paper lanterns looked at Wu Yong with a smile. A tael of silver is not a small amount of money.

"Brother, I don't understand now. As the saying goes, the secrets of the heavens should not be leaked. If I do fortune-telling for others, that's leaking the secrets of the heavens. It will cost my life. One tael of hexagram gold is not expensive!"

Wu Yong said with a deep smile.

"Daozhang, you are trading your life for money!"

Someone else laughed and said, but the words were mostly teasing, and businessmen who travel around have a lot of experience, so they naturally know that fortune-telling is a lie.

"Haha, you can't say that, I only count as one hang a day, so it won't hurt the peace!"

Wu Yong said with a smile.

"Everyone, the Daming Mansion is coming soon, are you interested in doing a fortune teller to make a fortune!"

Wu Yong's words changed, and he spoke with the appearance of a treacherous Taoist.

"The Taoist priest should find those noble people! We can't afford a tael of silver!"

Naturally, it was impossible for everyone to ask Wu Yong for a fortune-telling, and they all pointed to the Daming Mansion not far away.

Sun Xin and Mrs. Gu also laughed along with the crowd, as if they didn't know Wu Yong.

The group arrived at Daming Mansion soon.

The gate of the city was heavily guarded. Since Liangshanbo became popular, Daming Mansion has become an important town in Hebei to defend against Liangshanbo. Liang Zhongshu was afraid that Liangshan's spies would get in, and the number of guards directly doubled.

After some searching, nothing was found, and everyone entered the city smoothly.

Taking advantage of no one's attention, Wu Yong gave Sun Xin and Mrs. Gu a wink, and holding up a paper sign, he left the team and went to the government office in the city.

"The guards are tight!"

Wu Yong frowned as he looked at the eight servants holding weapons outside the government office.

Wu Yong didn't linger in front of the government office, holding the flag as if passing by, rang the bell and headed to the north of the city.

Fu Ya Nei,
"Who is slandering the government?"

Liang Zhongshu slapped the table and shouted, now it is rumored throughout Hebei that he framed Lu Junyi to collude with the enemy and betray the country for the sake of Lu Junyi's family property, and the rumors are getting more and more intense, and now there is a lot of trouble, and it is said that it has spread in Tokyo.

"Enxiang, if this matter continues like this, there will be trouble!"

Wen Da clasped his fists and said.

The Lu family has lived in the Daming Mansion for generations. They are honest and have a good reputation. Although Lu Junyi is a martial idiot, he is willing to help the poor on weekdays. Now it is rumored that he has been framed. People are panicked, worried about becoming a Lu Junyi.

"Check it out for me. You must find out who slandered the government. I will tear that person into pieces!"

Liang Zhongshu roared, reputation is sometimes very important, in his position, he needs financial support from rich merchants, if his reputation is ruined, no one will dare to follow him in the future.

"Enxiang, I have already checked, the rumor first appeared in Luozhou!"

The master said thinly.

"Luozhou? Send someone to question the prefect of Luozhou. He must find out this person for me, otherwise I won't make him feel better!"

Liang Zhongshu gritted his teeth and roared.

"Enxiang, this rumor is weird, could it be Liang Shan's work?"

Li Cheng said, now their biggest threat is Liang Shanbo, and the east of Daming Mansion has been occupied by Liang Shanbo.

Hearing Liang Shanbo's words, Liang Zhongshu's face was terribly gloomy, but he didn't say anything.

"The new year is approaching, and the guards need to be strengthened!"

Liang Zhongshu left these words and went back to the back hall.

Only Li Cheng and Wen Da were left with strange faces. Liang Shanbo was probably involved in this matter. Why did Liang Zhongshu not respond to this? If Liang Shanbo came to attack the city, the Daming Mansion might not be able to hold it.

Li Cheng and Wen Da exchanged glances, then both sighed and left the government office.

"Sir, why are you saying that you framed Lu Junyi!"

Mrs. Cai looked at Liang Zhongshu and asked, recently rumors have spread that the wives of the big families in the city are avoiding her. In previous years and this year, she was the guest of honor for the women's families in the backyards of various mansions.

"Ma'am, don't worry about this matter!"

Liang Zhongshu left these words and went back to the study.

"Send this letter to the prime minister's office in Tokyo as quickly as possible!"

Liang Zhongshu quickly wrote a letter, and called a confidant, Dutou.

"Yes, Enxiang!"

Dutou took the letter with both hands and left the government office.

Liangshan Park.

"Xiaoyi, don't worry, brother will take you out to relax!"

Sun Lei saw that Yanqing was like a husband-watching stone, looking at the direction of Daming Mansion from the top of Liangshan every day, and felt a little helpless. Such a loyal person is rare in the world.

"Brother, I..."

Yan Qing really has no interest in relaxing, the boredom in his heart cannot be relieved by relaxing.

"You'll know when you go!"

Sun Lei clapped his hands, Shi Qian and the others led the horse and came over with a smile.

"horse riding?"

Yan Qing is a smart person, looking at those horses and burdens, how far will this distraction go?
Sun Lei led the crowd out of the water pool, and rode all the way into Dongping Mansion.

"Brother, are you going to the Daming Mansion?"

Yan Qing felt excited, this is the way to Daming Mansion.

"No, I want you to know part of the truth!"

Sun Lei shook his head, there is nothing he can do in Daming Mansion now.

After entering Dongping Mansion, the route turned around and along the path, entered Kaide Mansion between Bozhou and Puzhou.

"The time should be just right, Shi Qian, it's up to you!"

Sun Lei looked at Shi Qian and smiled.

"Brother, my younger brother hasn't done this for many years! If you give birth, brother, don't blame younger brother!"

Shi Qian smiled and shook out a bunch of things from his arms, including bamboo tubes, small paper bags, cloth towels, small medicine bottles of various colors, and thin needles wrapped in animal skins.
