Water Margin: You dog official, you still say you don’t know martial arts?

Chapter 832 Zhang Bangchang: Liu Zhizhou, please don’t misunderstand me——[1 update]

Zhang Bangchang had a bitter face: "No, no..."

"Then you should quit your job as the Grand Marshal of the Palace!"

Song Huizong pushed him away:

"I don't keep useless people!"

What a bolt from the blue!

Zhang Bangchang was anxious at the time:

No, there is nothing we can do about the four treacherous ministers. Why is Your Majesty only targeting me?

However, it was impossible for Zhang Bangchang to blame Song Huizong. He could only look at the other three treacherous ministers, hoping that one of them would lend him a hand because they shared the same interests.

However, it does not.

Cai Jing, Tong Guan and Yang Jian did not have such a deep friendship with Zhang Bangchang, not to mention that Song Huizong was almost going crazy at that time.

There is an old saying in the Song Dynasty: A friend of the Dao dies rather than a poor Daoist…

Zhang Bangchang finally climbed to the position of Grand Marshal of the Palace Marshal's Office, and he paid a lot to climb to this position.

Now Song Huizong dismissed him with just one word, how could he be willing?

Besides, he has done so many evil things. If he were to be demoted to the lowest position, there would be so many people waiting to take advantage of his misfortune.

And he is already thirty-six years old. If he falls down, he doesn’t know if he can climb back up again in this lifetime…

Zhang Bangchang was anxious at the time, gritted his teeth and glared:
"Your Majesty, I have a solution!"

"Oh?"

Song Huizong was like a trapped hyena, staring at Zhang Bangchang with red eyes:
"Say!"

Zhang Bangchang took a deep breath and said:

"Your Majesty, what we seek in life is nothing more than fame, wealth and honor!

“To put it more vulgarly, people live for power, fame, wealth and beauty!
"Liu Neng is a human being, and humans have these desires!

"I believe that as long as Your Majesty satisfies Liu Neng's desire, the siege will be lifted!"

Are you stupid?
Cai Jing, Tong Guan, and Yang Jian looked at him like he was an idiot:
Wouldn’t it be better for Liu Neng to just become the emperor?

Why does Your Majesty need to satisfy him?
"It makes sense!"

Song Huizong was like a drowning man who grabbed a straw, or like a man who was sick and seeking medical help from anywhere.

Song Huizong looked at Cai Jing, Tong Guan, and Yang Jian:
"What do you think of this plan?"

The three treacherous ministers all gave a thumbs up:
"Wow! Wow!"

if not?
They didn't have any other options.

Since Zhang Bangchang proposed a solution and Song Huizong also said it made sense, of course he agreed with it.

Whether it succeeds or not, it’s all Zhang Bangchang’s fault.

"Then follow Zhang Qing's plan!"

Song Huizong tightly grasped Zhang Bangchang's hand:

"Zhang Qing, talk to him!"

Zhang Bangchang panicked: "Your Majesty, I am a humble servant with low status and low authority..."

"And you!"

Song Huizong immediately arrested Cai Jing, Tong Guan, and Yang Jian as conscripts:
"You two go talk to the rebels together!"

what?
Cai Jing, Tong Guan and Yang Jian were all depressed, but since things had come to this point, they could only cooperate with Zhang Bangchang.

Tong Guan made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Bangchang in a bad mood:
"Please come in, Commander Zhang!"

Zhang Bangchang didn't say anything. Anyway, he remembered that the three treacherous ministers didn't say a word at the critical moment.

Fortunately, Zhang Bangchang was very experienced in negotiation. He walked to the battlement and shouted loudly to the outside of the city:

"Ai--"

Liu Guangshi, Hua Rong, Zhang Qing and Hu Yanzhuo had already withdrawn from the battle and gathered ten miles away.

Outside the city, the Liangshan heroes are cleaning up the battlefield, and Liu Gaozheng and Lu Junyi are joining hands to express their brotherhood.

"I didn't expect that you guys would do such a thing in Liao!"

Lu Junyi said admiringly:
"Don't ever lose me again in the future!"

"Don't worry, you'll definitely be there!"

Liu Gao agreed readily. The Jin Kingdom had many powerful generals, so how could he not bring Lu Junyi?
But then again, Lu Junyi is indeed worthy of being the martial arts ceiling of the Water Margin world.

The difference between Lu Junyi and others is like the difference between a top student and a good student.

Du Fu’s combat power is 99 because he only has 99.

Lu Junyi's force value is 100 because the setting of the Water Margin world is only 100. Now the setting has been changed because of the integration of Yue Fei's world, and Lu Junyi's force value has soared.

The two were talking and laughing when they suddenly heard someone shouting from the city gate tower:
"Please ask Liu Zhizhou to come forward and answer the question!"

Liu Gao immediately recognized Zhang Bangchang. Lu Junyi pointed at the city gate tower:
"Brother, someone called you..."

"Not urgent."

Liu Gao calmly pulled out the goose feather fan from behind:

"Let him practice his lung capacity first."

What is lung capacity?
Lu Junyi has become accustomed to the new words that Liu Gao comes up with from time to time, and he heard that they are all country slang.

"Liu Zhizhou, please don't misunderstand..."

Zhang Bangchang yelled at the top of his lungs:

"Your Majesty has appointed Grand Tutor Cai, Privy Councilor Tong, Grand Commandant Yang, and Zhang Bangchang, the commander of the palace—

"Let's ask Liu Zhizhou why he besieged the city——

"Is there some misunderstanding?

"Your Majesty has always valued Liu Zhizhou—

"No matter what misunderstanding there is, we can talk about it—"

"shameless!"

Yue Fei was listening to the music beside Liu Gao:

"It's been almost a month since the siege began, and the government just started asking why?"

Liu Gao laughed and said, "Ninth brother, the emperor knows why you are asking.

"He knew he was going to die."

The brothers burst into laughter.

The emperor's majesty was never high in their eyes, and now it is even lower.

Seeing that Liu Gao didn't respond, Cai Jing came out to help him shout for the sake of the overall situation:

"Liu Zhizhou, your humble servant Cai Jing——

"Your Majesty knows that you have always been loyal and courageous -

"There is no misunderstanding that cannot be resolved——

"If Liu Zhizhou was wronged due to some misunderstanding—

"The court will definitely compensate Liu Zhizhou—"

Guan Sheng narrowed his eyes and stroked his beard:
"Isn't it too late to resolve the misunderstanding when the enemy is at the gate?"

Lin Chong looked at Liu Gao and said, "Brother, why don't you listen to how the court plans to compensate you?"

Gongsun Sheng said, "It's okay if the court misunderstood. Big brother, you have to let the people know what the misunderstanding is."

Liu Gao nodded slightly: "Okay."

So when the four treacherous ministers took turns shouting at him until their throats were hoarse, Liu Gao finally urged his horse forward.

Although Liu Gao was alone on a horse, Lin Chong was on the left and Guan Sheng was on the right, Lu Zhishen was in front of the horse, and Wu Song was behind the horse.

There were only five of them, but they were like an army of thousands, rushing to the point where an arrow could reach them with great momentum.

"Dog officer!"

Lin Chong pointed his Zhangba Snake Spear at Zhang Bangchang on the city wall:
"My big brother is here, if you have anything to say, say it now!"

Liu Gao looked at him and said nothing.

Although Zhang Bangchang was very angry, he still had to keep a smile on his face:

"May I ask, Liu Zhizhou, why are the troops at the gates of the city?"

Liu Gao was too lazy to answer, so Lin Chong spoke on Liu Gao's behalf and answered loudly in the voice of a tiger, leopard and thunder:
"You lied to us, saying that the Liao soldiers were gathering in Bazhou and were about to march south, and you sent us to stop them...

"Blah blah blah, we have surrendered Jin soldiers to testify to this, what else do you have to say!"

"Misunderstanding! What a huge misunderstanding!"

Zhang Bangchang immediately cried out for help:
“We don’t know either!

"The intelligence we received is that 100,000 Liao soldiers are gathering in Bazhou!
"Bazhou is on the border of the Great Song Dynasty. Isn't this an attempt to invade the Great Song Dynasty?"

"is it?"

Lin Chong sneered, "Gao Lian, the prefect of Gaotang Prefecture, took advantage of our absence to stop the Liao soldiers and attacked Cangzhou!

"You don't know either?"
