Aftermath of Water Margin

Chapter 5
But Guan Ying saw that Yu'e had slandered Du Xing and killed him; Du Xing also said that Yu'e had been in collusion with Feng Sheren, and it was difficult to distinguish the truth from the false for a while, so he thought about sending Du Xing away and sent the Scheren back home.The calculation was made, and he said to Du Xing: "There is a forage field outside the west gate, and you are sent to guard it. It is a common practice for the grass collector to come. You will send it to deliver on the same mission." Du Xing thought, "Like Lin Chong again." Said: "The villain will go, it's just that Enxiang is old, and there are few trusted people around him, so we should take precautions in everything." Guan Ying nodded.Du Xing called from the same mission.

Guan Ying went inside and said to Yu'e, "Du Xing is bold, and has been sent to guard the forage field outside the west gate. Sheren has been away from home for a long time, and I am afraid that my father will remember him, so I will send him home tomorrow." Yu'e was happy and worried, happy The most worrying thing is that Du Xing left his eyes, and the worrying thing was that he gave up and went back, and kept silent.Sheren said, "Nephew is going, but his back is sore and weak these days, and he's afraid he won't be able to feed the animals." Guan Yinghan agreed vaguely.From then on, he deliberately looked at him coldly, and the two were really close.

One day, the newly released prisoners were released in the hall, and they quietly went to the door of the room. Hearing the sound of laughter, he leaned on a crack in the wall and saw Yu'e sitting on the body of Sheren, who was holding Yu'e's fragrance. Shoulder, said lowly: "The old man sent me, how can I give up kissing!" Yu'e said: "I have a way, you just say that the back pain is not healed. After all, he will send you, and I will send you first." This old idiot is on his way." Guan Ying was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore, he pushed open the door and rushed in, shouting, "You bitch! Which way are you sending me?" The two hurried away, and Guan Ying He grabbed the housekeeper and scolded, "You little bastard, how rude!" He bumped his head away.Sheren wanted to get away and pushed hard, but Guan Ying was top-heavy and had already fallen down, unable to lift his limbs, and fainted on the ground.Yu'e also panicked. When she came to help, how could she wake up.Firstly, Guan Ying is old, and usually washes his body for Yu'e, and secondly, his chest is stuffed with phlegm, and his heart is confused.Yu'e hurriedly called the messenger, saying that Guanying suffered a stroke and died temporarily. She reported to her superiors and took money to buy clothes, quilts and coffins.No problem.

But it is said that Du Xing lived in the forage field for two days, and some clothes were troubled by his mother-in-law to wash, but he never took them away.Seeing the Orion shoot down a deer, I bought two retreats, and went to the camp to pick up clothes by the way, and will be filial and manage the camp in the future.When he was about to reach the camp, he bumped into Yang Lin by splitting the mountain and said, "I went to the camp to visit you again. I knew you were guarding the fodder field, and I was about to ask you." Du Xing said, "I was twisted by that thief's prostitute. Today I come to ask for two things." Clothes, buy these two pieces of venison, and come to see Guan Ying." Yang Lin said: "Guan Ying died this morning." Du Xing said in surprise, "What's wrong? He died so fast! I went there in good season. If so, you Sit down in the hotel and have a glass of wine, and I will come in and have a look." One said, put the venison in the shop, walked into the camp, saw the messenger and asked, "Why did Guan Ying die?" The messenger said: "The prisoner was handed out a new solution. Go in the back, and the little grandma said he had a stroke. See the legend of the maid, the little grandma flirted with Feng Sheren, rushed in and twisted him, and the sheren pushed him, and fell to his death. Don't you Take care of him." Du Xing went to the back hall and saw Guan Ying standing upright on a board door, he burst into tears and kowtowed four times, seeing Yu'e asked: "Guan Ying is not very sick, why did he die?" " Yu'e said: "There are unpredictable things in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings. How can you tell! You guard the forage yard, how come you come?" Du Xing said: "I asked my adoptive mother for two clothes. When I heard that Guan Ying died, After being praised by him, I will send him to the coffin." Yu'e changed her face and said, "Which one wants you to send!" Sheren interjected, "You are just a prisoner. You are not relatives or relatives. What are you doing? Go away!" Du Xing said: "You are a relative, you should come to see him die." Sheren was furious and shouted, "Farting death row prisoner!" He asked his companion to beat him.Du Xing was about to kill the prostitute and strong husband, fearing that there would be many people in the camp, he thought about it and discussed with Yang Lin.Swallowing his breath, he went to the hotel and said to Yang Lin: "Guan Ying died unknown. I want to avenge him and kill this prostitute and strong husband. Let me show my anger." I can't live." Fuer said: "It's like this, it's just done cleanly." According to Du Xing's plan, he ate two horns of wine, repaid the wine bill, picked up the venison, and went to the forage field with Yang Lin.

But she said that Yu'e put Guanying into the coffin, wore filial piety clothes, Qiao makeup was light, and she was even more enchanting, and she was happy with the cold people.She Ren said: "It's the wish of heaven and man. It's just that we can't stay here for a long time, and we have to leave the yamen if a new manager comes in. Bury this coffin in the suburbs, and I will go to Tokyo with you. My father has a strong influence. People dare to control! It's not a couple who are transported by water!" Yu'e was full of joy, so she carried the coffin out, finished packing, hired a sedan chair and horse, and went to Tokyo with her adoptive mother and maid.

After walking on the road for two days, I arrived at Zijin Mountain, where strongmen haunted. I could see flat sand and white grass, the sky was gloomy, and there were few pedestrians.I saw two horsemen, two strong men on horseback, holding a hard bow, a pot full of feathers and arrows, with a knife straddling the waist, coming slowly, brushing Feng Sheren side by side, and whipping the horse twice, it seemed to fly away.The bearer said: "Grandma, it's not good! It's a thieves who passed by just now. You can't go ahead, and you have a long way to go back. What should I do?" Yu'e and Sheren panicked.The companion said: "Maybe, wait for us to fight against him." Before the end of the speech, the two horses also turned around, swished, and shot the sheren through the throat with an arrow, and died under the horse.The two thieves jumped to the ground, tore open the sedan door and pushed Yu'e out.Yu'e shouted: "Hero! Take the property and spare the slave's life!" A thieves said, "Will you spare the life of the camp?" He pulled out his waist knife and strangled his neck. side.The companion had no choice but to speak harshly, and when the horse arrived, he and the bearer left first.The adoptive mother and maid were shocked.The thieves opened the bag, took the silver begged by the family, and Li Guanying's daily savings, about 3000 taels of silver, put it on a chain, straddled the horse and whipped it, and threw it all the way to the north.The companion and bearer saw that the thieves had gone, so they left.The companion said: "There is a thief who is an acquaintance of Du Xing. I saw it in the camp. I recognize it, but I don't know its name." The bearer said: "Let's report to the local government and have someone collect it. If you find the thief on Du Xing Already." There are poems to prove it:
At the foot of Mawei Mountain, there are left fragrant socks, and at the top of Qunyu Mountain, there is resentment for evening makeup.

A period of murderous intent cannot be eliminated, and the fragrant grass is left empty to complain about the setting sun.

The two thieves are Yang Lin and Pei Xuan.Yang Lin first plotted with Du Xing, and ended up with him on the way.Inquiring about the same thing in Tokyo, Du Xing was not easy to come forward, so he waited ten miles away.Pei Xuan and Yang Lin killed Yu'e and Sheren, robbed their property, met Du Xing, and went to Yinmachuan together.Pei Xuandao: "I'll reorganize the stockade, recruit strong men, and start a new business." Du Xing said: "I'm not full, if I'm here, I will definitely find Li Daguan. Brother Pei, you recruit and sort out here. Brother Yang and I went to Dulonggang and called the Dongren to come, and we were safe." The plan was made, and after two days of silence, Du Xing and Yang Lin took the road to Jeju.

After walking for two days, I went to a small town and saw a man arguing with others.When Yang Lin looked at it, it was a flower called Cai Qing.Stopped the crowd and asked, "Why are you fighting here?" Cai Qing said: "You two came just in time. Last night, I was resting in the shop with this group of people. I went out first, and he came. What luggage do I need for him?" "Yang Lin yelled: "This is my brother, why do you rely on him?" Pulling his fist, he hit.The group of people said: "I never blamed him. I lived together at night and lost my luggage. Ask him if I have seen you before, and the guest officer will fight." Yang Lin said: "He is a clean man, but he took your luggage?" Look The people persuaded to leave.Yang Lin asked: "Where have you been? Where have you always been?" Cai Qing said: "My brother is gone. I don't want to be an official. I originally lived in Beijing. An uncle was a magistrate in Lingzhou. He always stayed at home and thought about making a phone call. Jifeng." Du Xing and Yang Lin said: "It's so good, let's go together." Cai Qing asked, "Where do you two meet? What are you going to do in Jeju?" Du Xing took Sun Liqi's book and assassinated him for the sake of something unexpected. Yu'e and Sheren became lively.Walking together and resting together all the way, we arrived at the branch of Shandong within a day.Du Xing said: "The two of us will go to Dulonggang. How long will you stay in Lingzhou? If you go home, you must pass by Dayin Machuan, and you must go to the cottage for a while." The three parted.No problem.

But it is said that Feng Sheren's companions should go to Zhangde Mansion to report first, and send people to the forage field to get that Duxing, and they have already fled.Xingye rushed to Tokyo, Feng Biao knew that his son had been killed, bitter and hated, and asked the reason carefully.The companion said what the prisoner Du Xing seduced the thieves.Feng Biao said: "Since it is Du Xing, it has its own whereabouts." After reporting to Privy Tong, he wrote to Zhangde to arrest the thieves, and at the same time went to Jeju to capture Du Xing's owner Li Ying, asking him to catch Du Xing.It is said that the prefect of Jeju received the document from the Privy Council, wanted to arrest Li Ying, and called the envoys to discuss the arrest.The envoy said: "Then Li Ying has the courage of ten thousand husbands, and he can't get it easily. You have to go by yourself, just say worship him, and coax him out so you can get it." Dulonggang.

But he said that although Li Ying knew that Du Xing was the assassin of Zhangde, he didn't communicate with him for two or three months.At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, I was packing rice for storage at home, when I saw my grandfather came to worship, and hurried out to welcome the magistrate to the hall, and was about to see him, the magistrate said: "The privy secretary wrote, there is an important matter to go to the government. "As long as the yamen servants are surrounded.Li Ying couldn't get away, so he had to go to Jeju City.The magistrate was promoted and said: "You are in charge of Du Xing, and you allowed him to rob and kill Feng Commander Sheren. Tong Shumi wants you to send Du Xing away." Li Ying argued: "Du Xing's assassination with Zhangde is more than 3000 miles away. , I’ve never been able to communicate with you, where can I find him!” The magistrate said angrily, “You and he are both members of the Liangshan Boyu party, so naturally you are hiding at home and cannot be pushed clean. Today, it’s not difficult for you to be imprisoned temporarily. I apply to the Privy Council, Go and argue." Li Ying went to the prison, thinking, "Why did you do something again, and implicate me!" He had to divide the money into the prison.Those at the Jie level knew that Li Ying was a rich man, so it was not difficult to take advantage of his wealth.No problem.

But when Cai Qing arrived in Lingzhou, his uncle had already been promoted, and he couldn't go back after all his troubles.Thinking about looking for Yang Lin and Du Xing in Liedulonggang, and taking the road to Jeju, he met Yang Lin and said, "My uncle has been promoted. He has no money and can't go back. He is coming to look for you." Yang Lin said: "Li Ying has already He was taken away by the prefect of Jeju and imprisoned in prison. Du Xing first escorted his family and property and the farmer to Yinmachuan. I want to go to Jeju to rescue Li Ying from prison, but I have no help. You are very good at coming. Let's go Find an inn to rest." Yang Lin said: "If this is the case, we can save him." Cai Qing said: "It makes sense."

In the afternoon of the next day, I came to the prison and said to the jailer: "We are sent by the Privy Council of Tokyo to Jeju for business. We heard that Li Yingjian was in there and had an old relationship with him. I want to see him. Please open the door." Those who bet a lot of money did not dare to shirk, and opened the door to let them in.Seeing Li Ying sitting in the cell sullenly, seeing Yang Lin and Cai Qing, he was surprised.Yang Lin said in a low voice: "I did this with Pei Xuan and Du Xing. I'm afraid it will hurt you. I reported to Dulong.com, but unexpectedly the prisoner is here first. Du Xing first escorted Bao's family members to Yinma Prefecture. Ruojie If you go to the Privy Council, you will lose your life. If you don’t use tricks like this here, you can escape.”

Li Ying was overjoyed, and gave five taels of silver to Jieji and said: "I will soon be sent to Tokyo, and I have always been treated by you. Today, a friend from the Privy Council came to visit me on business. I want to trouble you to buy food and wine, but I will treat you. "The festival level agrees.After a while, they were arranged neatly. Please invite Yang Lin, Cai Qing, Jie Ji and Xiao Laozi to have a drink together.And distributed to the common sinners in the prison.Be careful at the festival level, and close the prison gate.After enjoying the meal, Li Ying stood up and toasted a big cup to Jieji and Laozi each, unconsciously salivating, and fell into a coma.Hearing the third watch of the drum beating on the woodcutter building, Li Ying, Yang Lin, and Cai Qing climbed to the top of the wall, brushed aside the thorns, and slipped down together.Just as I was about to move my feet, I saw two people carrying bowls, lanterns, and sticks in their hands. They were patrolling.One shouted: "Someone has escaped from prison!" Li Ying raised the man's chin, and the sheep fell to the ground with his head turned. When the other one was about to shout again, Yang Lin had already pulled out his sharp knife and pinched his ear, and fell to the ground.There was no movement for a few moments, Cai Qing carried the lantern, Li Ying and Yang Lin took the sticks, and they thought they were patrolmen, they went out of the street and turned into the alley.

Someone in the shadow said softly: "At this time the gate of the city is not open, if the family is chasing you, what should I do?" Cai Qing rushed forward to take a photo. There was a young woman with a green cloth pocket in front of her. Man, carry a burden and follow.Cai Qing yelled: "Did you run away with your husband?" The man dropped his burden and walked away in a side alley.Yang Lin grabs the woman.The woman panicked, knelt down on her knees, and said, "I misunderstood him for a while, and I was abducted by him. Please spare me!" Yang Lin asked, "Where do you live? What is the man's last name?" The woman said: "That man His surname is Shi, and he is my cousin. My husband went out to do business, but my mother-in-law beat me and scolded me, so I asked him to take him to his natal home, not to run away." Yang Lin said: "It is clear that he escaped with his cousin, and we have to deny it. We Forgive you, don't bother to see the officer, you can go home quickly." The woman thanked her endlessly.Yang Lin lifted the burden and said with a smile, "my door patrol is more successful, and I caught a strong relationship." Li Yingdao: "let's go to the city gate and see it, but it hasn't been opened yet."After sitting for a while, the gate of the city opened, and he rushed out of the city in the shadows.After walking for five or six miles, at the foot of a small mountain, the sky gradually brightened.Yang Lindao: "Take this burden, and it's heavy. I don't know what's in it." When he opened it, he saw several women's clothes, wrapped with three strings of copper coins and hairpin jewelry, and said, "Let's take these copper coins to buy wine and eat on the road. . " Repacked, discarded the lanterns and sticks, and hurried on the road together, talking and laughing, and walked sixty miles earlier.

There is a hotel beside the official road, and Wangzi is picked out.Go in and buy some wine to eat before leaving.Pick the deputy chair and sit down, and ask the bartender to bring you five catties of wine and a large plate of beef.After walking for half a day, Shengzhong was so hungry that he ate hungrily once.See a man above, dressed as an officer, with a majestic body, a beard, and a seat for himself.The first four servants ate wine on a seat.The officer clasped his hands and asked, "I don't know how far you have to come from Jeju? Can you make it in time? I'm going to file a felon." Cai Qing answered, "Your place? Do you want to file a felon?" The officer didn't When he agreed, the family member said: "My father is Feng Duye, who was awarded by Tong Shumi. Because Xiaosheren was killed by thieves in Zhangde Mansion, I inquired about the director of Li Ying, the remaining party in Liangshan Po. I moved the letter to mention it. I don't know, Du Ye came down in person and mentioned Tokyo to the Jeju government to avenge Xiao Sheren." Li Ying and the three heard this, kept silent, faltered a few words, Yang Lin paid back the wine money, and went out.

I saw a shop soldier rushing into the store with a yellow burden on his back, took a closer look at Li Ying face to face, and called the bartender: "Hurry up and get a corner of the drink. After eating, I have to hand over a corner of the emergency document. Li Ying escaped from prison last night. Kill two watchmen by the prison wall, and the government will apply to the Privy Council." The officer jumped up and said, "What do you say? Li Ying escaped from the prison!" The soldier shop said, "It seems that Li Ying was the one who went out just now. If you catch it, there will be a reward of three thousand coins." The servant said: "Needless to say, these three people hurried out when they saw what I said. And this big-faced man was the one who killed Xiao Sheren. I don't think so. Don't dare to say anything." Feng Biao called the shop soldiers to watch, and his fellow servant drew his waist knife, and Fei Ye rushed over, shouting, "Don't leave the thieves!" When Li Ying and the three looked back, they were already beside him.Although he hid a hidden weapon, it was useless, so he quickly dodged into the woods.The shop soldiers recognized it again and shouted, "it's Li Ying!" Feng Biao's family members also rushed into the forest, and chopped with round knives.Li Ying came to his wit in a hurry, saw a pine tree lying on the ground, picked it up and swept across it, a servant couldn't hold the knife in his hand, and swept it to the ground.Yang Lin hurriedly picked it up and raised his hand to greet him.Li Ying tried his best to deflect the pine wood again, but Feng Biao couldn't resist, and fell to the ground with one foot. Yang Lin chopped off his head with a knife and died on the ground.The servant did not dare to move forward and ran away desperately.Pu Bing left later and was also killed by Yang Lin.Li Yingdao: "If it weren't for this pine tree, the three of us would die." I am afraid that the local people will know that they are chasing them, so they have to leave in a hurry.The four servants returned to the store and said that the owner and shop soldiers had been killed, and the store owner was taken aback.It's already Pingxi, and I can't get to Jeju, so I rest in the shop.The next morning, when I returned to Tokyo, I went to the Privy Newspaperboy, and asked the local store to go to Jeju for the first newspaper.There is a poem sighing:
The father should be taught, and the son should do Gu.Father and son are fierce, death is not what they want.

But it is said that Li Ying and the other three escaped from the danger, wandering around at dawn and night, and had nothing to say on the road.When they arrived at Yinmachuan, Pei Xuan and Du Xing followed, overjoyed.Tell them that they met Feng Biao in the store and killed him in the woods, everyone was pleasantly surprised.Seeing that his family members were already there, Li Ying said, "I've already reorganized my family business, and I don't want to do anything else. But this happened again. I can't stop now. I have to rectify the cottage and make it a scale." Pei Xuandao: " My younger brother has gathered 200 people here. Five miles away, there is a Longjiao Hill. Gathering five hundred people, money and food are abundant. I used to have a little leader Xiong Sheng under him. The day before yesterday, he said to his younger brother: "Then Bi Feng is Ren Yuan's apprentice, and he was overthrown by Yan Qing in the Jiahui Hall of Tai'an Prefecture. It is a world feud with Liang Shanbo.' Seeing that I have set up a battalion here, I want to annex it. This is an elbow and armpit problem. If we drive him away first, we will be safe if we recruit him." Li Yingdao: "Our foothold is undecided. Let’s take care of it first, and see the opportunity.” Day after day, trees were cut down, houses were built, gates and passes were built, and horses, armor and equipment were purchased, all of which were rough and complete.

That Xiong Sheng came over again and said: "Bi Feng is brave and foolish, extremely greedy for wine and sex, disrespectful of soldiers, tortured harshly, and all of them are renounced. The day before yesterday, I went to the foot of the mountain and snatched a woman named Wang Mei Niang. She was the daughter of a rich family. Drunk and unable to wake up. I used to be the leader of the old department, and I wanted to join, and I was there to do the internal response. After tonight, I went in softly and hard out, and everything was invincible." Li Ying and Pei Xuan were overjoyed, and rewarded Xiong Sheng heavily, telling him to go to support first, Arrive at Longjiao Mountain at midnight.Xiong Sheng went by himself.At present, Li Ying, Pei Xuan and Yang Lin lead a hundred men to rob the village, leaving Cai Qing and Du Xing to guard them.At the second watch, take the road to Longjiao Mountain.It was the last ten days of the twelfth lunar month, and the ground was covered with severe frost, all trees were withered, and the waning moon cast a cold light on the edge of Dongshan Mountain.Li Ying went up to the hill. The Longjiao Mountain was dangerous and there was only one path, which was rugged and steep.When he was about to reach Zhaikou, Xiong Sheng and more than 5000 confidants guarded him, and said to Pei Xuan, "this man is still drinking with Wang Meiniang. Let me lead the way and go in quietly." On the side of the main hall, I turned to the dining hall, looked through the window, and saw that Bi Feng was half drunk, holding Wang Meiniang in his arms, eating wine one mouthful at a time.Wang Meiniang said: "You said you would send the slave home in three days. It's been ten days now. How can you keep it?" Hua Feng said, "This is coaxing you. I want you to be a wife forever. What's wrong with this?" Good! I robbed a hundred big lake pearls here to wear with you." Mei Niang said: "Dad and mother are crying at home, so don't worry about it." Bi Feng said: "Tomorrow, please come and live here together." And feed wine eat with him.Mei Niang said: "I can't eat it, let me spare this slave." Hua Feng said: "You were blamed for begging for mercy last night, and I won't forgive you tonight." Li Ying was furious and shouted: "Thief, how rude! "Come in together, Huafeng sees it's not the head, pushes Meiniang away, and jumps into the rear window of the pavilion.Pei Xuan rushed to the top of the ridge.Pei Xuan also jumped out, Bi Feng flashed in the shadows and disappeared.Wang Meiniang knelt down in a hurry, and Li Ying said, "Don't panic, I'll take you home." Xiong Sheng called Juju, and went to the main hall to pay respects.Li Yingdao: "The thief is gone, leaving future troubles, so we have to chase after him." Then he told Pei Xuan, Yang Lin and Xiong Sheng to light a torch, search around, but found no influence, and said, "Fortune this thief!" He said to the crowd, "Are you willing to follow me to Yinmachuan?" They said in unison, "Bi Feng is unkind, and wants to leave for a long time. Seeing that Xiong Sheng said that the leader is very loyal, he is willing to follow." Li Ying said: "Since So, we can pack up and go together." They found three to five thousand taels of gold and silver, two storehouses of rice, three good horses, equipment, and armor, and sent them back to Yinmachuan.Yang Lin wanted to set fire to it, but Li Ying said: "No! Thousands of years of incense, slowly find Taoists to revive." He asked Xiong Sheng and his two little leaders to send Wang Meiniang back home, and Meiniang thanked him and left.

It's already dawn, go back to Yinmachuan, slaughter pigs and sheep, worship the gods, reward me, and discuss seats.Li Yingdao: "This drinking Machuan is the old foundation of Brother Pei. Please sit down." Pei Xuandao: "The officials are invincible. Besides, the number of days on the Liangshan Park is fixed. How can we discuss it again! Naturally, I obey the order." Li Yingdao I couldn't push it, so I took the first place.Pei Xuan was second.To invite Cai Qing to sit third, Cai Qing said: "My little brother has something to say." Everyone listened attentively.It's exactly: the ignorant group of heroes will resume their business, and the hazy celestial guest will be on the same wave.I don't know what Cai Qing said, let's listen to the next chapter.

Du Xing recognized Yang Xiong, and wanted to write a book to discuss Shi Qian, because he had a bad relationship with Zhujiazhuang.Today, I sent a letter for Sun Li, and the aftermath involved Li Ying.Both times, it was the supervisor who suffered, without any complaints, not just the farmer who packed the rice and put it in the warehouse.Prison escape and pursuit, very old topics made new words.But I know that the masters of the gu Gu must choose another topic, because the clumsy pen has no visible long ears
