Zhang Di and Li Tianxi, who fainted, were escorted by the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers of each team escorted the captured thieves and were cleaning the battlefield. Bian Xiang, who had lost his strength after the killing, cheered up and just helped his only remaining brother, the scar-faced tiger Fu Xiang, when he came near.
Hundreds of officers and soldiers swarmed up and aimed their icy-cold blades at Bian Xiang and Fu Xiang.
When the officers and soldiers saw that Bian Xiang was covered in blood and was not wearing a military uniform, they just thought that he was a stubborn bandit who would fight to the end. They all tensed up. If Bian Xiang made the slightest move, hundreds of spears would be fired.
He wanted to greet him, but Bian Xiang just held Fu Xiang back and stared coldly at the officers and soldiers surrounding him without saying a word.
"Stop!" Xiao Tang rushed over and shouted: "This is a righteous man who abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, not a traitor who stubbornly resisted. Please withdraw all your weapons quickly!"
"Brother Xiao, what's going on?" Da Dao Wen Da was about to congratulate Xiao Tang, but when he saw Xiao Tang scolding the officers and soldiers, he clapped his horses to welcome him, glanced at Bian Xiang and Fu Xiang suspiciously, and then said to Xiao Tang
Tang asked.
Xiao Tang said to Wenda: "Wendu Supervisor, we were able to capture the culprit Zhang Di this time, thanks to the help of the righteous Bian Xiang. He had surrendered to the Celestial Empire beforehand, and we were able to surround Zhang Di and eliminate him.
Killed the remnants of the southern Hebei army."
Xiao Tang's words were vague, and seemed to imply that Bian Xiang led them to Zhang Di's hiding place, and then the two sides cooperated internally and externally to defeat the southern Hebei army thieves. Although the credit for discovering this hidden cottage was none other than Shi Qian.
, but it is easy to negotiate when my brother returns home, but if Bian Xiang is to be pardoned by the government, he must be given more credit to be safe.
Unexpectedly, Bian Xiang laughed loudly and said loudly: "What kind of joke is Xiao Renxia talking about!? It was obvious that there was an internal dispute between me and the dry bird man. Xiao Renxia led his army to suddenly attack, and I only saved my life."
"
After hearing this, Wen Da probably understood what he heard. He ordered all the officers and soldiers to retreat, and then said to Xiao Tang: "It seems that I still have something to say to that man. In that case, I will evade it first. After the inventory is clear, the thief will be captured."
After all of them are bound, you and I will go to Tongda County to report this great merit to Wang Jiedu."
After saying that, Wen Da turned his horse and left, but he murmured in his heart: This Xiao Tang seems to want to do a favor for that man again, so what is the purpose of being so mixed with the green forest and grass? He learned a skill and sold it to the emperor's family, and with
It's natural for Xing Wu Pao Ze to be closer. But most of these men in the world despise the law. If they get entangled deeply, they will get burned sooner or later.
Xiao Tang let out a long sigh and said: "Your Majesty, you still don't know what I mean by saying this? Why do you insist so much if you can wipe off all previous guilt and become innocent?"
Bian Xiang looked calm and said calmly: "You are indeed a good man who helps people in crisis and people in need. You really live up to your reputation as a hero! But I, Bian Xiang, have been arrested by the government since I broke the granary to help the people.
From then on, I no longer felt that I had committed any sin!
Moreover, although Xiao Renxia is willing to protect me, a rough guy from a farming background, it is true that I cannot get along with those dry birds of the Southern Hebei Army. But if people really think that I colluded with the officers and soldiers in advance, causing my comrades to be wiped out by the officers and soldiers, I
Hasn't Bian Xiang really become that duplicitous, treacherous and unjust villain? If you win this time, you win. As for how to deal with me, it's up to you!"
Xiao Tang looked at Bian Xiang who was standing proudly, but he shouted coldly: "Confused! You naturally know how most of the strongmen and bandits under Zhang Di behave. Since you can't stand the deeds of corrupt officials, you still
What kind of loyalty do you have with those who kill, sell goods, and plunder? Even if you are a responsible and kind-hearted hero who cannot bear to harm innocent people, when you defeat the army with your own skills, how many bandits in southern Hebei rely on you for your blessing?
, harming the people behind your back? Just this one, ask yourself, do you really have no sin? "
When Xiao Tang said what he said, Bian Xiang was silent and ashamed. In fact, Bian Xiang knew these things in his heart, but what could he do? He had already joined Zhang Di at the beginning, but it was only later that Bian Xiang realized that this had something to do with him.
The rebels in their minds are too far apart, so they turn around and leave? The people in the green forest will only regard him as a capricious and unjust person. By then, although the world will be big, there will no longer be a place for Bian Xiang.
While Bian Xiang was accumulating resentment, which finally came out today, he also had deep guilt and self-blame deep in his heart. Now Xiao Tang pierced this layer of window paper, calling this person who has always been upright, generous, and daring to do anything.
The big man was speechless.
Fu Xiang, the brother next to Bian Xiang, was not angry. He said angrily: "Xiao Renxia...Now that our brothers have admitted defeat, why bother to entertain my elder brother with words anymore?" A scholar can be killed and cannot be humiliated. Now I have fulfilled your wish and eliminated all of them.
The powerful men of the southern Hebei army, we brothers live and die together, whether you want to kill or behead them, just call them over!"
Xiao Tang shook his head and said, "Why am I trying to humiliate you two? Since you, Bian Xiang, let go of the Han family in Xiangzhou in the Zhoujin Hall of Anyang City, you should know that the ministers in the DPRK have not worried about the world's worries first.
There are virtuous ministers in all the prefectures, and there are parents and officials who are honest and treat the people as their children. Officials are divided into clean and dirty, and the world is also divided into good and evil. To restore a peaceful world to hundreds of millions of people in the world, the only way to kill officials and rebel is to
Are you leaving? You two are not afraid of death, but you dare not keep your useful life and do something great?"
Bian Xiang pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "Xiao Renxia, there are some things I don't know whether to say or not."
Xiao Tang smiled slightly and said: "I only think that Bian Xiang is an upright man. Why should he be such a mother-in-law? Just say what you say."
After hearing what Xiao Tang said, Bian Xiang also got straight to the point and said angrily: "Nowadays, traitors are in power and the path of virtue is blocked. I heard that if you invest money and silk into the powerful, they can be reused. Xiao Renxia can call the wind and rain in Daming Mansion.
I'm afraid it's inevitable to get close to that kind of left-behind husband Liang Shijie, right? During the reign of the late emperor, the party quarrels were fierce. Nowadays, the powerful ministers in the government are probably manipulating the government, slandering luck, and jealous of talents!
Now, the Zhao Guan family is doing something to pay for ten coins. Good people in various prefectures and prefectures are suffering from it, and many people are destitute. Thieves from all walks of life are appearing together, and grass bandits are becoming more and more rampant! Even if there are people like Xiao Renxia with ambitions
When it comes to serving the country and the people, even if there are virtuous ministers in the court who are willing to serve the people, what use can they be of any use? The emperor, and those other scholars like to say that if the king asks the ministers to die, the ministers have to die. I, Bian Xiang, am a rough man.
A man can only say that the country forces the people to rebel, and the people have no choice but to rebel!!!"
After Xiao Tang heard what Bian Xiang said, he was not upset, but said with a sigh of relief: "Since ancient times, the people of the world have valued their country and their country. However, when the court is weak, it is not enough to overthrow and re-establish the world.
Obviously, it is just to plunge all the people into water and fire. Those who raise the anti-flag, only seek their own selfish interests and persecute good people, this is the one in front of me. Even if it is only possible, try to reorganize the government.
If you try your best, I am one of them."
After hearing this, Bian Xiang curled up the corner of his mouth and said: "Xiao Renxia, don't blame me for calling you arrogant! Although you are well-known in the world, you are just a military minister who eats official food and looks at the eyes of powerful people. Compared with that
What about Cai Jing, Wang Fu, Tong Guan, Zhu Meng and other treacherous and sycophantic officials? In terms of official rank and power, aren't there one world and one underground? No matter you or any good official can't figure out the sewage in the imperial court, what should you do?"
Xiao Tang himself had thought about this problem countless times. Before the Jingkang disaster when the Jin Kingdom invaded, if he was unable to eradicate the rotten foundation of the Song Dynasty and could not avoid the catastrophe from within the court, what should he do now? He was able to give himself an answer. Xiao Tang smiled freely, looked directly at Bian Xiang and said, "Then I'm going against his mother!"
Hearing that the Daming Mansion soldiers who had just wiped out the bandits of the Southern Hebei Army were taking Xiao Tang into custody, but they vowed to say such treacherous words to him. Bian Xiang couldn't help but his expression changed drastically. He stared at Xiao Tang for a long time, then suddenly laughed loudly and said: "It's so interesting! I really want to see what you can do in the future!"
