Chapter 1277 Asking prices all over the sky and paying back the money on the spot, where can you get
Xiao Rang and Jin Dajian were both people with some calculations in their hearts. After hearing the scoldings from the courtiers and attendants across from them, they immediately realized that this matter of being recruited by the court would not be smooth sailing.
But Xiao Rang, who had a serious temper, still fell to the ground and apologized: "Since the imperial court has never sent an edict to the village, it has not been true. Song Jiang and the leaders of all sizes were all at the golden beach to welcome him. I hope that my husband will temporarily calm down his thunderous anger. As long as
If you do good things for the country, please forgive me."
Among the crowd of envoys from the imperial court, Li Yuhou, the high-ranking commander, also appeared and seemed to be singing along with Zhang Qianban. He said with a cold eyebrow: "What can we do if we don't accomplish a good thing? The imperial court will not grant amnesty, but will only teach the army."
When we come to conquer, we don’t have to worry about your band of thieves flying into the sky!"
Zhang Qianban of Cai Taishi's Mansion and Li Yuhou of Gaodian Marshal's Mansion, two close confidants who were obedient to orders in the mansions of the powerful men of the dynasty, each also obtained Cai Jing. Gao Qiu, the two powerful traitors who were the secret instigators, were all considered as the recruiters of Liangshan.
The guy wants to play the role of the white face.
It's just that Cai Jing started to use coercion to force the Liangshan gang of thieves to react when they were impatient, so as to test their sincerity; while Gao Qiu simply couldn't stand the rebellion of the Song Jiang group of thieves.
In order to be recruited and fight for an official position, he met Chen Zongshan secretly, and he humiliated the court as a thief. His crimes were heinous. Now he is pardoning the criminal and introducing him to the capital will cause trouble in the future. He deliberately provoked the Liangshan bandits to ignore the imperial edict.
Hao mobilized the army, and together with Xiaotang's group from Qingzhou's two mountains, they cut the grass and roots. Li Yuhou, who was recommended by his subordinates and praised by his subordinates for his ability to speak quickly and answer ten questions, came with him.
Nowadays, Zhang Qianban and Li Yuhou, although they have different original intentions of secretly ordering their masters, their domineering expressions can be regarded as their true colors. Even if the Liangshan group is a powerful green forest bandit on Jingdong Road, the other party
After all, they were eager to get the official's leniency and death, but they had the support of the imperial court behind their backs, so they were taught to act unscrupulously, as they were accustomed to using power to bully others.
Although Xiao Rang and Jin Dajian, the two leaders who wanted to show their innocence, were angry in their hearts, they had no choice but to apologize repeatedly and use kind words to respectfully invite everyone to go straight to the edge of Shuibo Liang Mountain.
Although Chen Zongshan had successively obtained Cai Jing and Gao Qiu gave verbal hints, he still planned to complete the recruitment matter and live up to the official mission. Then he couldn't help but frown and went to Zhang Gan again.
He said in a loud voice: "When we were in Jeju Prefecture, Magistrate Hou and Magistrate Zhang also said that they would complete the recruitment matter, and they also agreed that even though we were envoys of the imperial court, we should be friendly when greeting a group of strong bandits in Liangshan.
He comforts them all with sweet words, good and bad, as long as a big thing is accomplished. After all, there was once a grassland where the grass fell into danger, and there were many men with a hot temperament among them. If you offend him with a word or a few words, it will ruin the big thing?"
When Zhang Qianban heard this, he laughed, and said to Chen Zongshan with a respectful face: "My husband, just feel at ease, leave us alone, there will be no water in the world. And didn't Mr. Cai also tell my husband, just tell me
You must follow the Prime Minister to recruit the Liangshan bandits, and you must not violate the court rules and disrupt the country's laws."
Li Yuhou also smiled and said: "Leave me alone to follow my husband, and it will not be too late. If we only discipline and be kind, we will break the rules of the court. Don't you know that the younger generation always suppresses us, and we can't do half of it. If we let go
When he raises his head, does he make a show? After all, the villain... must also remember Captain Gao's instructions."
After hearing this, Chen Zongshan opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak. He already had a good-natured temperament, but at this time he just thought helplessly in his heart: Although these two are not good officials, Yu Hou and other petty officials, they
I have to make the decision. How often have I dared to say a word!
After all, having been a courtier for many years, Chen Zongshan knew that even if Zhang Qian was in charge, Li Yuhou was just a pawn of the powerful, but he absolutely had to consider whether he would offend Cai Jing, Gao Qiu and other high-ranking officials behind them.
Hi. For Cai Jing, it has nothing to do with the overall situation whether he can recruit a group of strong bandits from Shuibo Liangshan to surrender. However, he has old grudges with Hou Meng, Zhang Shuye and others who proposed and advocated the recruitment; while Ting Gao
Qiu Yan also knew that the three yamen officers in front of him were extremely opposed to recruiting Song Jiang and other gangsters from the Green Forest to submit to the imperial court. On the surface, he said he was an envoy of the imperial court, but to put it bluntly, he was just an errand boy. It also depends on the central government.
The powerful people looked at each other and went to Liangshan Mountain to read out the edict. During this period, they had no control over how to deal with Song Jiang and his group of strong bandits.
After thinking about it in his mind, Chen Zongshan expressed his pain again and secretly said: Most of the people in Liangshan are unruly thieves. If they get angry and get angry, what can they do? Zhemo will also want to be held accountable by the court.
The crime of ineffective recruitment? However, Grand Master Cai and Lieutenant Gao cannot afford to bear the crime. They only hope that this trip will not provoke the anger of the thieves and cause trouble...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
However, what Chen Zongshan, even Zhang Qianban and Li Yuhou did not expect was that they went to Liangshan to read out the official imperial edict and ordered the Liangshan bandits to come to Beijing to face the Holy Spirit. The matter went very smoothly and did not cause the slightest disturbance at all.
Along the way, they met the Liangshan soldiers and horses who came to greet them again. Zhang Qianban and Li Yuhou still treated the green forest gangsters like "village donkeys. The nobles are here, so they have no scruples!"
Dare you reply to me?" He even went to the shore of Bojin Beach in Liangshan and saw Song Jiang, who was accompanying him cautiously. He was still bossing and shouting arrogantly. Although Song Jiang was followed closely by a group of leaders who saw Li
At the time of Yu Hou, Zhang Qianban was gesticulating in front of Song Jiang, arrogant, and wanted to kill this guy, but it was only in Song Jiang's way that he couldn't do it.
As for Song Jiang himself, he was still in charge of Zhang Qian. Li Yuhou and Li Yuhou kept apologizing and were respectful and cautious. They also taught the leaders in the village to hold incense, lanterns and candles, beat gold and drums, and play drums in the village. They all sounded together, and then continued.
Led Chen Zongshan, Zhang Qianban, Li Yuhou and other envoys from the imperial court, as well as the entourage from the imperial court and the Jeju Prefecture, to the Liangshan Juyi Hall. Song Jiang, who had just taken the position of the leader of the Liangshan Dazhai in Shuibo, at this time
His words and deeds seem to have gone back to the time when he was a junior official in Yuncheng County Yamen who looked at Shangguan and acted with an expression on his face...
Seeing this situation, Wu Yong secretly sighed and said in his heart: Originally, according to my intention, this recruitment will definitely fail. Even if it is done, how can we, who are from green forest and grass bandits, be looked down upon by the imperial court? We secretly use some tricks.
, which disturbed the imperial court's recruitment this time, we should wait for the imperial court to lead the army to Haosheng and fight for a few times, killing the men until they lost their helmets and disarmed. Since I also taught the court to know how powerful I am, Liang Shanbo, I will not be recruited again at that time.
, only then did he appear to be somewhat magnanimous...
But of course Wu Yong understands better that the development space of Liangshan in Shuibo is blocked by Qingzhou and Dazhai, which are both on the border of Jingdong Road.
Tangzhou, Damingfu and other important state capitals were far more numerous than those captured by Liangshan at one time. Not only were there far more money and food than those in the two mountains, but there were also far more green forests and grassy people who were willing to join the villages in the two mountains in Qingzhou than those in Liangshan.
of.
And judging from the current situation, the imperial court is eager to clear out the Shandong bandits. Although Liangshan's soldiers and horses are useful, they are not what the imperial court considers to be indispensable. If the recruitment matter fails this time, it may mean that Liangshan
The strong bandits no longer had the chance to be spared by the imperial court. They could only seek or even join the two mountains of Qingzhou led by Xiao Tang to jointly resist the imperial army coming to conquer. However, this was by no means the way out that Song Jiang insisted on. Wu
Yong Er knew very well that his original goal was to negotiate with the imperial court in a loud and aggressive manner to raise the price, but he definitely did not want to miss this good opportunity that would never come back.
Therefore, even if Wu Yong was not as eager to accept the court's recruitment as Song Jiang, he could still sigh deeply and secretly said in his heart: The development of the current situation is not as I expected before. Asking for high prices and paying back the money on the spot, that's why
The common talk between the two parties in the transaction, isn't it true that we are in Liangshan and the imperial court? It's just that we now lack the confidence to bargain with the imperial court. Brother Song Gongming, now it seems that although the imperial court is still on the road
Being able to walk finally fulfilled your wish, but I'm afraid it will be much harder to walk than I expected...
