"The tattooed little official has committed a heinous crime and humiliated the noble man by coming here. He is not well received. I hope to beg for forgiveness."
Just when Wu Yong was sighing and thinking, Song Jiang still accompanied Xin Xin to invite the courtier Chen Zongshan, who had been pushed by Yu Li, to get on the sedan chair. He then led two more horses and asked Zhang Qian to handle it. Li Yu waited for these two people.
A powerful minion came to ride. However, Song Jiang led a group of leaders who just wanted to follow step by step. Zhang Qianban and Li Yuhou still looked like they wanted to look at people with their nostrils.
A group of bandit leaders and their attendants transferred from Bianjing and Jeju Prefecture were treated as servants and followers.
After passing the Broken Golden Pavilion in the middle of the mountain and Wanzi City, three passes in front of the village, we walked for a long time until we arrived in front of the main hall of the Juyi Hall. Song Jiang once again invited Chen Zongshan, Zhang Qianban, Li Yuhou and others to enter the hall and gave instructions.
The leader of his subordinates placed the imperial wine edict box and summoned all the subordinate leaders to kneel in the hall to listen to the imperial edict and edict.
At this time, the faces of the leaders gathered in the Juyi Hall were becoming increasingly angry, and there was even a man with a fierce flash in his eyes. These leaders who came from the village seemed to have lost their spirit.
At this time, it seems that the crazy and rebellious habits that should not be underestimated and looked down upon have been stirred up again.
When Chen Zongshan took out the edict from the edict box again, Xiao Rang, who had received it, unfolded the edict. He only took a cursory glance and his expression became condensed. But under the current situation, Xiao Rang could only smile bitterly and read loudly:
:
"Following the orders of Haotian, the emperor's system said: The five emperors have territorial titles based on rituals and music, the three emperors determine the world with killings, literature can stabilize the country, and martial arts can determine the country... Things should be obedient and rebellious, and people can be virtuous and foolish.
.I inherited the great cause of my ancestors, opened up the brilliance of the sun and the moon, commanded the whole world, and ignored the subjugation. Recently, the roar of the Song River gathered in the mountains and forests, and robbed the counties and cities. I originally wanted to use the sky to retaliate, but I was afraid that I would trouble my people. Today
I sent Grand Lieutenant Chen Zongshan to recruit people. When the edict arrives, I will soon have enough money, food, weapons, horses, and ships. I will appoint officials, demolish the nest, and lead the troops to Beijing. I will be exempted from this crime. If you still have no conscience and violate the harsh edict, you will be punished by the heavenly soldiers.
Once it arrives, no one will be left behind. Therefore, this is an edict, I hope you will know it!"
In the Juyi Hall, except for Song Jiang, Wu Yong, Liu Min and others who were still looking down upon, almost all the leaders' faces became even more angry! However, there was no sound on the beams in the Juyi Hall, and there was no sound.
It was not like in the original work, where a black evil man suddenly jumped down and tore the edict into pieces, then grabbed Chen Zongshan and tried to beat him with his fist... But Wu Yong had known that Li Kui's temperament would be aroused.
When he is angry, he will inevitably make a big show, and he secretly proposed to Song Jiang that he should be looked down upon, and that the ferocious and violent black guy should not disturb this opportunity and another rare recruitment event.
Li Yuhou and Zhang Qianban saw that the bandit leaders in the Liangshan Lao Shizi Juyi Hall were either submissive or arrogant when they dared to get angry but dared not speak. Among them, Li Yuhou sneered and thought that the bandit leaders around him were clearly distinguishable.
He said in a tone that everyone could hear: "These thieves are lucky. They all committed crimes that deserved death. They accepted the emperor's grace and tolerated their status as lowly thieves. But are they not the blessings they gained from their previous lives?"
Song Jiang also clearly heard Li Yuhou's words, but the expression on his face didn't know whether he should say that he was unfazed by the honor or disgrace, or that he felt humble and insignificant. He just didn't realize it and bowed to Chen Zongshan and said: "Song Jiang, a humble citizen.
We are grateful to the Lord for your kindness, and we will finally see the light of the sun again. All the benefactors came to Liangshan to deliver the edict without hesitation. Their kindness is unforgettable and will never be forgotten. Now we, the brothers, have finished thanking you. As usual,
Please also ask Mr. Chen to give you royal wine and teach everyone how to be grateful."
Chen Zongshan agreed very happily, and immediately ordered his entourage to get a gold flower bell inlaid with precious stones, and then asked him to take a bottle of royal wine and pour it into the silver pot of the flower bell. Although the royal wine smelled fragrant, it must be the best. The wine is fragrant, but many leaders in the Juyi Hall still have resentment on their faces, and they seem to be reluctant to come forward and drink the royal wine to soak up the so-called emperor's favor.
All because of this sip of wine, I was really drunk!
On the contrary, Song Jiang nodded and bent forward to take the ladle and ladle of wine. He even bent his knees to raise his glass and drink from his knees. Wu Yong, Liu Min, Dai Zong and others also followed suit and came forward to express their gratitude. , and then the unruly leader, since he decided to continue with Song Jiang, had no choice but to swallow his anger, took the ladle, bent his knees, which he boasted would never bend, and drank the cup, even though the wine was fragrant. But it’s really hard to drink the imperial sake...
Outside the Juyi Hall, the rest of the official servants who followed the entourage from Bianjing and Jezhou were naturally looked after by the iron fan Song Qingfafu in the village. They drank the food as usual, set up wine and food tubes to reward the servants, and even They were also prepared to give generous gifts of gold, silver, and silk, lest Li Yuhou, Zhang Ganban, and their subordinates would come up with some excuses and try to embarrass Song Jiang. Even the subordinate officials from the Jeju government office who came with them, Seeing that the Liangshan gangsters who had always taught them how to behave were now so submissive, most of the people gradually became arrogant, and some officials even offered the benefits of verbal hints to the serving village leader. If it's not enough, you have to add some more, just like how you treat the common people who teach them to ask for money whenever they go out for activities...
In the past, Shuibo Liangshan on the boundary of Jingdong Road had strong soldiers and horses, and even the officers and soldiers did not dare to look directly at its green forest bandits. But now, seeing that in order to recruit this group of thieves, they are so cowardly that they will fight even if there is fire. Hold it in, how dare you neglect us, the public servants who came with you to recruit people? Not only did you make a lot of money, but when you got back, you boasted that even this group of powerful thieves looked at you, but you didn't even dare to fart. Isn’t it just something to brag about?
Up and down Liangshan, inside and outside the Juyi Hall, the sound shook Shandong, and a group of strongmen gathered together, but they all succumbed to the minions of the officials and dignitaries who had succeeded. Some of the leaders of the strongmen were willing to swallow their anger; However, some people held back because of Song Jiang's strict orders and urging; some people had secret thoughts and just looked at the villain in front of them with a cold look, but they also taught them to bow down to the grassy green forest who dared to use the knife on corrupt officials in the past. It's so ugly... But now in Liangshanbo, almost no one dares to jump out in front of him and resist this kind of humiliation...
However, there is still one person.
In the Juyi Hall, there was a clear sound of wine splashing on the floor. When Song Jiang, Chen Zongshan, Li Yuhou, Zhang Qianban and others looked around in surprise, they saw a strong bandit leader taking a ladle. Standing solemnly in the Juyi Hall, with an awe-inspiring smile on his lips, he immediately flipped his wrist and poured all the imperial wine in the ladle onto the ground!
The expression on the gang leader's face returned to the fierce and unruly look before, and he said in a cold voice: "I, Shi Wengong, have a drinking habit. It is best to eat sitting down or standing up, but I have never Have you ever thought about eating wine while kneeling!"
"The thief is so courageous, and now he dares to do something wrong!" Li Yuhou was stunned for a moment. He didn't realize how powerful Shi Wengong was, so he immediately cursed. But before he could stop cursing, he saw the look in Shi Wengong's eyes.
Fierce light burst out, and his expression was ferocious and terrifying. He looked like a ferocious and arrogant blood Pixiu staring at him! Li Yuhou was frightened by Shi Wengong's killing momentum for a moment. He was so frightened that he took a few steps back and almost farted.
Dun sat down on the ground!
When Song Jiang came to his senses, he immediately shouted to Shi Wengong: "Brother Shi Wengong, don't be rude!"
When Shi Wengong saw this, he sneered and secretly said: Song Gongming, Song Gongming, even though I had no intention of falling into the trap in the past, I knew that you were a very famous person in the world, but I still think highly of you! The imperial court has been extremely disrespectful of people.
I thought, but you are still willing to cater to me. Is your official position so important to you? I had no face to get along with Xiao Tang, Lu Junyi and others who are friends of the same family. I have no place to live, so I thought to myself that you are too, after all.
He was a heroic figure in the green forest and joined the gang... I originally thought that I was just going with the flow, and it didn't matter whether I was recruited or not. But now it seems that with my personality, Shi Wengong, I still can't stand this and have to teach the child.
