Lord: Start with a book of Water Margin

Chapter 391: Double Gun General

After three or five days, everything in Wangtai Township was back on track. Zhao Zhen and his party bid farewell to Liu Tang, Zou Run, Zou Yuan, Ruan Xiaowu and others, and returned to Baishi Manor together.

Without waiting for Zhao Zhen to go to the backyard to pay a visit to his mother-in-law, Dong Ping met Zhao Zhen and his entourage on the parade ground, and followed Lu Fang and the other four to pay their respects.

When Dong Ping came to Liangshan County, his father-in-law Cheng Wanli mentioned him in a letter and expressed his admiration for Dong Ping's martial arts.

Seeing Dong Ping prostrating himself on the ground, Zhao Zhen stepped forward to help him up, saying, "Why do you have to do this, Chief Supervisor? With your martial arts skills, you are a guest of honor anywhere."

Dong Ping heard this and said with shame: "How can a defeated general be so arrogant?"

Zhao Zhen said, "I heard that the Qingzhou battle was mostly blamed on Gao Feng, not on the chief eunuch. However, he was a brother of the Grand Commandant Gao, and he also had the merit of killing the bandit leader [Dwarf Tiger] Wang Ying, so he was exempted from punishment and was even rewarded."

Dong Ping said, "It's not all the fault of Prefect Gao. We underestimated Song Jiang. What's hateful is the new military commander Yao Gang, who makes things difficult for me. He is now my superior. As the saying goes, I'm not afraid of officials, I'm only afraid of being controlled. I've been bullied for this."

Zhao Zhen and others persuaded them, and everyone hugged each other and went to the hall together.

After sitting down, Zhao Zhen asked, "Dong Dujian, from your tone, you don't want to stay under Yao Gang, but have you made up your mind to come to me?"

Dong Ping said, "If the great lord is willing to take me in, I will certainly be willing to do so. Even if I become a small soldier, it is better than being bullied in Dongping Prefecture."

After hesitating for a while, Dong Ping said, "Your Excellency may not know that I have done something wrong. If I were under your command, I would have to speak out."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Dong Ping said with a stiff face, "When Prefect Cheng came out, I met Miss Cheng once and was shocked by her beauty. Therefore, I always had a crush on her. I wanted to propose marriage, but Miss Cheng had already been married to a senior official. I was so angry that I disguised myself as a robber and robbed her on the way."

Dong Ping then said to Wu Yong, "The military advisor should have an impression."

Wu Yong heard this and raised his hand to cover Dong Ping's head. He said, "They are indeed similar in body shape."

Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "At the beginning, I said that although this robber's martial arts were powerful, he looked a little weird. It turned out that you were in disguise. My wife is beautiful, and I understand why you are attracted to her. Now that the beauty has been taken, you should give up on this idea."

Dong Ping said with shame: "At first, I just had extravagant thoughts. After that madness, I no longer have any extravagant hopes."

"Although I have never been married, I have two concubines. If there is a suitable family, please ask the master to be a matchmaker. I will also start a family and career. From now on, I will work under the master to make a career."

Everyone laughed when they heard it.

Zhao Zhen said: "We have won a great victory in the battle with Jeju, and Dong Dujian has come to surrender, so we are planning to have a banquet to celebrate."

As he spoke, Zhao Zhen sent someone to invite Zhu Fu and prepare a banquet.

In the hall, Zhao Zhen said to Wu Yong, "General Dong is a hero. What do you think we should do with him?"

Wu Yong said: "Sir, I have thought about it and now I have two places to go."

"Oh? Let me hear what you have to say, pedant."

"The first place to go is Wangtai Township, which has just been occupied by the great official. This place has just been decided, and we need heroes like Dong Dujian to guard it."

Zhao Zhen said: "Liu Tang is now the chief steward here, how can we let Dong Dujian be inferior to Liu Tang brothers. If Dong Dujian replaces Liu Tang brothers as the chief steward, wouldn't it be chilling for the old brothers. Not appropriate, not appropriate, the scholar will tell us another place to go."

Dong Ping heard this and said, "Sir, I'm new here and I haven't done anything. Why not go to serve under Brother Liu Tang?" Wu Yong took the feather fan in his hand, tapped his head scarf lightly, and said, "For the second place, Sir, you have to give up some face."

After hearing this, everyone looked at Wu Yong.

Wu Yong continued, "Shankou Township, which is separated from Wangtai Township by a river, is indeed under the jurisdiction of Dongping Prefecture. Why don't you write a letter to ask Dong Dujian to be the chief of Shankou Township under the pretext of preventing theft?"

"Brother Dong Ping is a militia commander, so he is more than qualified to be the chief of Shankou Township. In order to prevent the Qingzhou bandits from invading along the Qinghe River, Shankou Township is asked to be managed by you. In this way, Brother Dong Ping will not be under the jurisdiction of the new Yao Gang, and you can get a township for free."

After hearing this, everyone praised Wu Yong for being worthy of the title of "Zhi Duo Xing".

At that moment, Zhao Zhen wrote a letter and sent a few smart and quick soldiers to Dongping Prefecture.

Dong Ping also wrote a letter, asking the soldiers to go to Xiwazi and send his two beautiful concubines to Liangshan County.

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen asked Shi Qian to lead the team for a trip to prevent any accidents.

After everything was arranged, everyone talked in the hall. Everyone talked about the underworld, and Dong Ping also recounted the battle in Qingzhou Prefecture in detail.

Needless to say, Baishigu celebrated that day.

The next day, Zhao Zhen and Cheng Wan'er went to visit their mother-in-law. After asking about her health, Mrs. Cheng asked, "Why don't you two have children yet?"

Cheng Wan'er blushed and turned her head to look aside.

Mrs. Cheng saw it and said, "Your child, there is nothing to hide. There are many people younger than you who have given birth to two children."

Zhao Zhen said shamelessly, "It's not that I'm trying to avoid pregnancy. My son-in-law is young and ignorant, and I practice martial arts just for fun. In the summer, I use well water to wash to get rid of the cold. Now the county has invited a miracle doctor, who is treating my body. Once my body is well, I will naturally be able to conceive a child."

Madam Cheng said, "It's no wonder that there is such a thing. Your father-in-law once said that this is a Jimi County, and if you make some arrangements, it can be inherited by the next generation. Such a big business cannot be left without successors. You need to hurry up."

"This time your father-in-law spoke on your behalf. The governor of Jeju gave your father a jade ruyi, saying it came from the palace. Holding it in your hand, it gives you a warm feeling. The patterns carved on it are also nice, with a combination of pomegranates, peaches, and Buddha's hands, which represent happiness and longevity, and represent many children and good fortune."

"My dear son-in-law, you should always hold this Ruyi in your hand to replenish your Yang energy." As he said this, he took out a Ruyi and handed it to Zhao Zhen.

Seeing that Zhao Zhen was about to refuse, Madam Cheng waved her hand and said, "Okay, my dear son-in-law, there is no need to refuse. Wanli and I only have this one daughter. Even if we have a fortune of millions, it all belongs to you two."

Zhao Zhen had no choice but to take the jade ruyi.

The three of them talked a lot. At lunchtime, Zhao Zhen and Cheng Wan'er accompanied Madam Cheng to have lunch. Madam Cheng said, "My dear son-in-law, you have a lot of things to do here. I don't have to accompany you all the time. It just so happens that I have something to say to Wan'er. You can go and do your work."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen took the [Blessings of Happiness, Longevity and Good Fortune] and stood up to say goodbye.
