Chapter 1009 Suppressing left and right, Hujiazhuang's awkward position
Now that Hu was established and Hu Sanniang came to visit, and he also accepted the money and gifts from Hujiazhuang, Xiao Tang sent his cronies under Xiao An to find a place to host a banquet in a prosperous restaurant in Banqiao Town. Because the Zhu family in Dulonggang
Zhuang was only a local wealthy man now, and Xiao Tang could not summon the three brothers of the Ruan family outside Banqiao Town, Zhang Shun, Zhang Rong and other brothers to come to the banquet. However, Hu Cheng was regarded as the savior of Zhuang Town.
Xiao Tang treated him very affectionately, thanking him endlessly, and his originally anxious heart became much calmer.
She and her brother went to the banquet hosted by Xiao Renxia. Although Hu Sanniang was pleasant in appearance, she only applied light makeup. She was usually happy and angry. She spoke very little after arriving at Xiao Tang's mansion, and her expression was very reserved.
Still worried.
Xiao Renxia, who is well-known in the world, has an extraordinary appearance. In addition, Xiao Jiaji's great kindness to Hujiazhuang, so when they first met, Hu Sanniang naturally paid great attention to Xiao Tang, but she was by no means a woman who was attracted by strange things.
, also knew that Xiao Tang was married a long time ago, but he just regarded him as the benefactor of his family.
After everyone exchanged greetings and took their seats, the waiter in the restaurant also brought out the ordered wines and dishes one by one. Hu Cheng said a thousand thanks, and he and Hu Sanniang took the lead in raising a cup to Xiao Tang, Xiao Tang.
Tang didn't want Hu Cheng and Hu Sanniang to be so reserved and polite all the time. After having a few drinks together, they changed the subject and asked Hu Cheng how the business was going in Hu's village these days, and whether doing business was going well.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Xiao Tang's question, Hu Cheng suddenly looked worried, and said with a wry smile: "I think Xiao Renxia must have listed Hu, Zhu, and the three villages of the Li family on Dulong Gang. We and the other three villages used to be afraid of the surrounding areas.
When a strong man from the green forest came to borrow food, he made a life-and-death vow to help each other. At that time, the owner of Lijiazhuang, Pu Tiandiao Li Ying, had some friendship with Zhujiazhuang Zhu Chaofeng, and the sister-in-law of Bizhuang also had a relationship with the third son of Zhujiazhuang, Zhu Chaofeng.
Biao is determined to be his wife, and he will marry sooner or later, but if there is good or bad luck, the three villages will naturally be of the same spirit... But after the strong men from Liangshanbo sent troops to attack Zhujiazhuang, the situation of the three villages in Dulonggang has completely changed.
....”
Later, Xiao Tang heard from Hu Chengyan that Dulong Gang was originally composed of Zhujiazhuang, Hujiazhuang, and Lijiazhuang. Although Zhujiazhuang was the most powerful among them, it could still maintain a balanced and antagonistic situation. But since Lijiazhuang,
After the master was tricked by Liang Shanbo into a copycat village, the situation of the three independent villages in Dulonggang was completely broken.
After Hu Sanniang was captured alive and brought to Liangshan Dazhai, it was Xiao Tang who sent Bian Xiang to lead the Xiaojia Village to defend Hujiazhuang and repelled the black whirlwind Li Kui who attacked the village with red eyes; Xiao Tang secretly
He ordered Quan Yu, the co-owner of Green Forest and Mountains, to go to Liangshan to ask for someone, and asked Chao Gai to show some scruples and release Hu Sanniang. Zhu Biao, who was originally engaged to Hujiazhuang, just wanted to clear Liangshan and show off his name, so he
Now Zhu and Hu Zhuang have already terminated their engagement. But after the war with Liangshan came to an end, how could Zhu Biao, who was domineering and flamboyant, let the Hu family regret their marriage and lose his face? So in the next period of time, he would often come to threaten him.
Due to coercion, Zhujiazhuang and Hujiazhuang have gradually turned against each other from their original alliance.
However, Zhujiazhuang originally had 10,000 or 20,000 households, and the three sons of Zhujiazhuang were fond of martial arts and aggressive by nature. They distributed plain knives and weapons to all the tenants in the village, and each shop also placed knives and guns in front of the door. Every farmer, young or old,
Wearing a yellow vest with the word "Zhu" written on it, he was ready to fight at any time, and Hujiazhuang only had three to five hundred bankers who could fight and dozens of horses, so his strength was far inferior to Zhujiazhuang. Li Ying was
After going to Liangshan, all the land deeds of Lijiazhuang were occupied by the Zhu family. With the help of Zhu Yongqing, Zhu Wannian and other Zhu family relatives, many martial arts instructors were gathered. The current strength is probably more than that of Dezhou, Hebei.
Zengtou City in the territory.
Hujiazhuang's rejection of the marriage severely hurt Zhu Biao's face. There is also such an annoying Zhuangzi with a different surname in Dulonggang. The two Zhujiazhuangs were originally considered alliance relatives, but now I am afraid that Zhujiazhuang only regards Hujiazhuang.
It is like a roadblock hindering its development and growth.
When Hu Cheng said this, he sighed again and said: "Although Zhujiazhuang often sends some boys to stir up troubles, the common people want to tolerate peace and quiet for a while, and they always ask the villagers not to cause conflicts with Zhujiazhuang.
I can handle it. But Liangshanbo also comes to visit me from time to time, which makes the common people very anxious..."
After hearing this, Xiao Tang's face suddenly darkened, and he said in a solemn voice: "I heard from brother Bian Xiang that there is Green Forest Dazhai who is willing to guarantee your village and asks Liang Shanbo to return your sister. Unless you offend him, you can't go forward.
I went to disturb Brother Hu's Zhuangzi. As far as I know, King Chao Tian who is in charge of Liangshanbo is also a man of his word. How could he go back on his word and go to provoke your village?"
When Hu Cheng saw this, he couldn't help but raise his slightly drooped eyes, and glanced at Xiao Tang secretly out of the corner of his eye. Qingzhou Erlongshan Dazhai sent leaders to Liangshan to ask for Chao Gai, and Song Jiang returned Hu Sanniang. Although Hu Cheng was grateful
, but Hujiazhuang clearly had nothing to do with the Qingzhou Mountains before, and he only had contacts with Yang Lin, the head of Xiao's bodyguard agency, during his business days, and then got connected with Xiaojiaji. Previously, Liangshan sent troops to attack Dulong.
Gang, Zhujiazhuang didn't take it seriously when Hujiazhuang was in danger, but the famous Xiaojiazhuang and Erlongshan of Qingzhou came to help one after another. They not only taught his sister to return to Zhuangzi in one piece, but also kept Hujiazhuang safe.
This also made Hu Cheng couldn't help but think about whether there was any connection between Xiaojiaji and Qingzhou Mountains.
They are all working in the world. Among the many stewards in the market town under Xiao Renxia's name, it is not surprising that some have some contacts with the strongman leader in the Green Forest Village... Hu Cheng is thinking about it, whether it is the Xiao family
Both Ji and Erlongshan were indeed very benevolent to his Hujiazhuang. If Xiao Renxia, a high-ranking member of the court, was again suspected of being associated with green forest and grass bandits... Hu Cheng secretly paid for something the less he knew.
The better, so he dismissed the doubts in his mind and said to Xiao Tang: "Now that Zhujiazhuang is so powerful, how can Liang Shanbo dare to lead his troops to Dulonggang again? King Chao Tian did keep his word, but it was just that timely rain.
Song Jiang often sent people to visit him secretly, only saying that he wanted to mediate with Wang Ying, the leader of his village."
Hearing her brother talk about the short-legged tiger, Hu Sanniang's pretty face turned pale. She thought of Wang Ying's ugly appearance and the wretched look in his eyes when he stared at her. The hairs all over her body still stood up involuntarily, as if they were stained with blood.
I felt as disgusting as a lot of toads.
Hu Cheng then sighed and said: "The leader sent by Song Jiang also said good things. He said that the king had thought about it day and night after seeing his sister-in-law. He only said that he had promised the king
Yingtou's marriage was in his heart, but he never fulfilled his wish. The leader also quoted Song Jiang's words, saying that although his brother's appearance was not a good match for his sister-in-law, he knew people well and had deep loyalty, so he and his sister-in-law were a match made in heaven.
I wanted to be a matchmaker and persuade my sister-in-law to marry Wang Ying. I also wanted to ask for a gift of gold and red brocade...
But how can a villain accept this? The leader in the future declined politely. Unexpectedly, not long after that, Wu Yong was sent to Liangshan Mountain. Dai Zong and other leaders came forward to persuade him to marry him, and even said that he would let that leader next time.
Leader Wang personally came to visit. Previously, his sister-in-law was in prison, and the common people did not want to be enemies of Liangshanbo again. When the war between Zhujiazhuang and Zhujiazhuang broke out again, they could not help each other. How could they teach the leader of Liangshan how to behave in Xiaozhuang's territory? In fact,
Unable to refuse, the common people had no choice but to go out to the village with their sister-in-law to buy goods, so as to avoid the Zhujiazhuang provoking troubles and the people from Liangshan Bozhong coming to disturb us. It was only then that we two brothers and sisters were lucky enough to meet Xiao Renxia's face here.
"
The more Xiao Tang listened, the more he wanted to have fun. Isn't this a bad scoundrel? Although Liang Shanbo is not using force to coerce Hu's family village, Hu Sanniang is still the daughter of a wealthy family, but Wang Ying is a notorious strongman leader, not to mention him
His ugly appearance and short stature reflect his despicable nature. Now Hu Sanniang has not been coerced by Song Jiang to submit. Then Song Jiang is just a mandarin duck. No matter he is thick-skinned than the city wall, he only wants to ask for Wang Ying's hand in marriage.
How could a rich man be accused of having an affair with a Green Forest bandit and then marry his daughter to a Green Forest village and betrothed to that shameless and lecherous gangster if he didn't do anything good?
But when he thought about it, Xiao Tang heard that Hu Chengyan said that even Wu Yong and other shrewd Liangshan leaders would come to talk to matchmakers. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he cursed in his heart: Song Jiang and Wu Yong are really good at scheming!
Song Jiang said that he wanted to help Wang Ying, that bitch, to fulfill his wish, but in fact, he wanted to insert Hu Sanniang's flower into the cow dung for a small purpose. He wanted to earn the wealth of the Hu brothers and sisters and the entire family of Hu's village and defect to the village to join the gang. I'm afraid it was a big deal!
