Hedong Weishengjun? Xiao Tang thought to himself that when Qiao Daoqing and Sun An left that day, they mentioned that they were currently living in Tongtian County, Weishengjun. Who other Hedong heroes could they be?
Lu Da, Han Shizhong and Tang Long saw that Xiao Tang was welcoming a visiting guest, so they also asked him to go there. Xiao Tang suddenly thought of something and pointed at Hua Rong and said to Han Shizhong: "Brother Han, my brother is extremely good at using bows and arrows."
, people in the world call him 'Little Li Guang'. If Brother Han is still interested in discussing with others, he can get close to my brother."
After hearing this, Han Shizhong looked at Hua Rong and couldn't help sizing him up, and Xiao Tang whispered to Hua Rong: "Brother Hua Rong, you are determined to make some achievements in the army. This Han Shizhong and Deputy Commander Han are good at fighting.
Good man, if you can get some advice from him, you will definitely benefit a lot."
Seeing that Han Shizhong was from the Western Army, Hua Rong had just heard what Xiao Tang said, and was deeply touched by Han Shizhong's deeds, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will take care of it."
Xiao Tang then said to Lu Da: "Lu Tiha, my little brother, please stay with me for a while. These brothers of mine are also straight-minded heroes, and they will accompany Tiha. I will return after my little brother has met with the guests."
Luda laughed and said: "This is your mansion, where else can you go? Brothers Xiaotang just go back as soon as possible, how can the Sa family be happy without the orthodox bishop?!"
Xiao Tang then went to the main room with Yan Qing and Shi Xiu to meet the visiting guests. Only two people came. When they saw Xiao Tang, he was busy singing and saluting, and said: "The villain Xu Wei and Tang Xian of Hedong have met Xiao Renxia.
"
Xiao Tang heard that the names of these two people seemed familiar, so he asked again: "The two distinguished guests came here, but they were not welcomed from afar. According to what my village guest said, you two came all the way from Hedong Road?"
Unexpectedly, Xu Wei replied: "Xiao Renxia has learned that my master only sent me to wait until your mansion to report to your Excellency. I am currently waiting for you at Huaishu Slope outside Daming Mansion."
Xiao Tang and others were startled after hearing this, and couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed. They thought that you came to visit, but instead asked the host to invite you in a secluded place outside Daming Mansion. What kind of prestige was this?
Yan Qing shook his head and said: "It's just a trick! Since you are a guest who comes to congratulate me, but you ask my brother to go out of the Daming Mansion to greet him, your prestige is still greater than that of Zhao Guan's family?"
Xu Wei replied: "It's not that we are disrespectful to Xiao Renxia, it's just that my master wanted to offer a generous gift to Xiao Renxia, but the people in Daming Mansion are so arrogant that it was inconvenient to bring the gift to your mansion, so I had to ask Xiao Renxia to go and get it.
Down."
Shi Xiu snorted coldly and said: "You are pretending to be a ghost, and you are trying to be mysterious! How could my eldest brother be sent out of the city after you waited for a few words? Let me make it clear here, who is the master of your family!?"
Seeing this, Xu Wei had no choice but to say to Xiao Tang: "My master's name is Wu Xia Li, and he is a well-known wealthy family in Weisheng, Hedong." Then he lowered his voice and said to Xiao Tang: "My master's name is also Wu Xia Li.
Wuli De'an, like Xiao Renxia Lingzun, was one of the big Khitan families who fled to the Song Dynasty during the political chaos of Yelu Yixin in the Liao Kingdom."
Wu Li? Tian Hu’s uncle in Water Margin? Xiao Tang knew that this wealthy Weisheng family had a pretty sister who was attracted by Tian Hu and married him, so he made Wu Li a puppet king.
The great uncle of the country.
In fact, Wu Li's death was a bit unjust. He was a fierce man with a stick that was deep in his bones, his arms were powerful, he could shoot a hard bow, and he was used to wielding a fifty-pound wind-throwing sword. He could do it in the Water Margin.
How many heroes are there who can wield fifty kilograms of weapons?
However, when he was fighting with Song Jiang's army, he was shot in the neck by a soldier's cold arrow and was seriously injured. He showed no ability at all. In the end, he was poisoned to death by his adopted daughter Qiu Qiongying and Zhang Qing.
Qiu Qiongying poisoned Wu Li to avenge Tian Hu for killing his biological father and forcing his biological mother to death. This was not wrong. However, her biggest enemy was only Tian Hu. Wu Li and his wife Ni treated Qiong Ying as if they were their own.
In general, Wu Li taught Qiong Ying all day long and passed on all his skills to her. It can be said that Wu Li did not feel sorry for Qiong Ying in the slightest.
Even though the hatred between his biological parents was irreconcilable, I wonder when Wu Li was on her deathbed before being poisoned to death, would she ever have thought that she had died at the hands of the adopted daughter whom she loved and cared for.
But how could Wu Li find his way to my head? What kind of generous gift did he talk about? Xiao Tang looked at Xu Wei suspiciously, and Tang Xian said: "We have all been naturalized in the Song Dynasty for a long time, and our ancestors were in the Liao Kingdom.
The past has faded away, so why should your master look for me?"
Xu Wei smiled slightly and said: "Although my master and Xiao Renxia have known each other for a long time, I have long heard about your reputation in Jilu and have been yearning for him. On the occasion of Xiao Renxia's wedding, I would like to offer you a generous gift to get to know you.
.As for that generous gift... I believe it must be in line with Xiao Renxia's wishes. Do you still remember that there is a steward in your mansion named Lei Ben, whose original name was the slave of Yishi?"
※
On the outskirts of Damingfu City, Huaishu Slope.
In a restaurant with a very quiet business, the shopkeeper, the cook and the waiter have all disappeared. Now the door of the restaurant is closed tightly, and even the wine flags hanging at the door to attract guests have been taken away. A restaurant that was originally crowded, I occasionally pass by
The woodcutter here only glanced at him before walking away in a hurry.
But although the restaurant was closed, there were a few well-dressed people hiding in groups around it, seeming to be closely watching what was going on around them, so as not to let anyone know what was going to happen in the deserted restaurant.
At this time, Lei Ben's arms were cut behind his back and he knelt down in the middle of the restaurant. He already seemed to be several dozen years older, and now his face was even more ashen, covered with bloody scabs, his mouth was stuffed with linen cloth, and he was surrounded by four people.
The five people held steel knives and stared at him coldly. As long as Lei Ben made the slightest move, someone would hit him hard on the back of the head and knees with the back of the knife, making it impossible for him to escape.
At a table behind Lei Ben, a tall man with a sturdy back and gorgeous clothes was sitting at the table. He was looking at Lei Ben playfully. The big man was about thirty years old. Although he was tall and tall, his eyes flashed from time to time.
A hint of sinisterness passed.
The door of the wine shop opened with a creak. Lei Ben raised his head and saw Xiao Tang and others led by Xu Wei and Tang Xian. They were already standing in front of him. Lei Ben grinned and looked miserable.
, he already knew that his life was coming to an end.
When Xiao Tang saw Lei Ben, he immediately recalled the old grudge that Lei Ben had for betraying him and Mr. Xiao, collaborating with the Nine-Headed Insect, and framed the Xiao Mansion. But even though Xiao Tang knew that he would definitely kill him for revenge today, he could no longer
The anger of direct hatred like that back then burned away the last bit of reason in me.
The burly man stood up, cupped his fists towards Xiao Tang and said, "Xiao Renxia, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Xiao Tang looked at the big man and said in a deep voice: "This eldest brother is Hedong Wu Li? Brother Wu gave me such a 'generous gift', and I can't thank you enough."
Wu Lihao laughed loudly and said: "This guy came to my residence two years ago. I originally thought he was a fellow Khitan, so I took him in kindly, but I didn't know that this guy was a wolf-hearted beast! I once let it slip that this guy was in the Daming Palace Clan City.
In the Guiji Town of the county, Xiao Renxia has become famous in Hebei and Lu for more than two years. When he was praised by all the heroes in the world, I asked this guy about Xiao Renxia. Unexpectedly, this guy first tried to shirk the blame and then tried to escape.
.
I became suspicious, and after doing a lot of research, I found out about the dirty things he did back then. In my life, I, Wu Li, hate this kind of dog slaves who seek glory from vendors and eat the inside out! So I sent someone to catch this dog thief.
Let Xiao Renxia handle it. I am not angry with this guy for doing this, so I will try my best to capture this thief for Xiao Renxia. Xiao Renxia should never be polite to me again."
After Xiao Tang heard what Wu Li said, in addition to his mortal enemy Lei Ben, he also thought about Wu Li's purpose of showing kindness to him. In the Water Margin, Wu Li was very utilitarian, otherwise he wouldn't have
He married his younger sister to Tian Hu so that he could dominate the puppet Jin State where Tian Hu was separatist by relying on his wife's identity.
Moreover, since Wu Li knew the grudge between Xiao Tang and Lei Ben and knew that he would kill Lei Ben quickly, he made preparations in a remote wine shop and settled the matter in a Jianghu way without going through official circles. This move was not intended to deliberately sell out.
What is a favor for Xiao Tang?
Wu Li was also paying attention to Xiao Tang's reaction at this time. He was not willing to just be a rich man in Hedong for the rest of his life, and Tian Hu, who allowed him to gain power and wealth, was still a hunter and had not disturbed Hedong Road.
With the strength of the heroes returning to their hearts, he occupied fifty-six counties in five states and established himself as the emperor of Jin.
When Wu Li learned that Lei Ben, who was newly transferred to his residence, was the manager who had betrayed Xiao Mansion and had a sworn enemy relationship with Xiao Tang, he thought about Xiao Tang's current reputation in terms of financial resources, connections, power, and reputation.
They are all the most prominent figures in Hedong, Hebei, Jingdong and other roads. Since you can take advantage of Xiao Tang's mortal enemy to get acquainted with him, why not?
When the two of them were thinking about their own thoughts, they heard Xiao Tang say to Wu Li: "Brother Wu is interested. I have wanted to take this thief for a long time! The sea of hateful people is so vast that I have no clue. This time I am lucky enough to get Brother Wu."
Only by lending a helping hand can the endless hatred in my heart be eliminated."
Wu Li glanced at Lei Ben, then looked at Xiao Tang and said: "I know that brother will still argue with this guy, so I will wait outside the store. Don't worry, brother, this wine shop has been taken over by me.
Whether this guy is killed or beheaded is entirely up to the brother's will." After saying this, Wu Li waved his hand, and his subordinates Xu Wei, Tang Xian and several followers followed him and exited the door.
Xiao Tang stepped forward and took off the linen from Lei Ben's mouth, and said with a heavy face: "When you colluded with Li Shaohua and framed everyone in the Xiao family, did you ever think of today?"
Lei Ben gritted his teeth. He knew he was going to die, so he laughed wildly and cursed wildly: "The matter has come to this, what's the point of saying more!? It can only be said that I made a mistake in every step, countless times, but I didn't expect you.
This brocade mastiff is riding on my head! I have served the master for half my life, and I have a clear conscience! I can't bear to see you, a playboy, ruining the master's fortune. Where did I go wrong!?
If you hadn't encouraged the master to exclude me and alienate me, how could I have colluded with outsiders to harm the Xiao family!? That's right! It's you who are wrong, I'm not wrong! I just want to protect the foundation of the Xiao family and teach me to live my life well! It's you.
You drove me to a dead end! It was you who was at fault! It was you who harmed me, not me!!"
Xiao Tang looked at Lei Ben's crazy look coldly, his expression became more and more murderous, and said: "Back then, when you saw that my father and I were still unresolved, you instigated me again and again, intending to sow discord between me and my father.
Are you thinking about dad? Back then, you not only framed me, but also caused dad to be tortured and died by that thief Li Shaohua. Is this how you deserve dad?
You keep saying it is for my Xiao family, but what do you do to express gratitude to my father for your kindness? You just did it, why are you such a coward, dare to do it but dare not admit it!?"
Lei Ben felt as if he was struck by lightning. How similar were the words Xiao Tang said to the words that Father Xiao scolded him in prison? In a daze, he suddenly remembered the elder who had treated him so kindly and made him in awe.
After a while, Lei Ben's face turned ashen and he sighed: "That's all, I just hope that the young master will remember that I have served the master for many years and die early."
Xiao Tang remained silent, and Shi Xiu next to him also knew about the grudges back then. He drew out his sword and said in a cold voice: "Brother Xiao is getting married soon, and it is unlucky to be stained with blood, so I will take care of this matter for you!"
Seeing that Xiao Tang was speechless, Shi Xiu took a few steps forward without saying a word, raised the knife and plunged it into Lei Ben's belly. He then turned the handle of the knife, and Lei Ben's internal organs were stirred by the sharp blade, which directly hurt his eyes.
It protruded like a dead fish. Lei Ben screamed for a moment and then couldn't hold back any longer. He vomited a large mouthful of blood and screamed!
Shi Xiu grabbed Lei Ben's head, put it close to his ear and laughed ferociously: "You thief donkey is here for the day! You want to die quickly, but grandpa wants you to suffer all kinds of misery before you die!"
