The First Yamen of the Great Song Dynasty

It was night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and a dozen people appeared at the gate of Qingfengzhai and called the door: "Open the door quickly, I am Liu Gao, Wenzhizhai of Qingfengzhai!"

Hearing the sound, the guard at the city gate roared, "Raise the lantern to shine on your face."

Liu Gao raised the lantern to his face and scolded: "You bastard, don't you even recognize me?!"

He didn't dare to say a single word wrong, otherwise, the knife stuck in his back would be pierced.

The person at the city gate heard Liu Gao's voice and recognized him, hurriedly went down to the gate tower to open the door, and asked concerned: "Zhizhai, where is your horse?"

Liu Gao didn't answer, but urged: "Open the door quickly, let me go in!"

When the city gate opened, Liu Gao and his party of more than a dozen people rushed into the city. Just when the guard who opened the gate was about to talk to Liu Gao, he felt a chill on his neck, and subconsciously wiped his hands with warm blood. His own throat was cut, looked at Liu Gao, and asked in puzzlement: "Big... man?" He fell to the ground.

Liu Gao was so frightened that he closed his eyes. Qingfeng Shan Yanshun, who was walking with him, saw him so cowardly, pushed him to the corner of the wall, drew his sword and cut down several other guards, and then shouted to the outside of the city gate: "Let's all come in!"

Hundreds of minions from Qingfeng Mountain, who were ambushing all around, swarmed into the city with Song Jiang.

It was the end of the new year, and the defense was weak. Hundreds of robbers poured in unsuspectingly, and Liu Gao, the Wenzhi village, was taken as a hostage. Before dawn, they occupied the yamen of Qingfeng village.

Wang Ying and others asked Song Jiang to sit in the main seat, and bowed to him, "Brother, we came late and made you suffer."

When Song Jiang was caught by Liu Gao, he really suffered a lot. His legs were covered with bloodstains from the whipping.

Song Jiang said with lingering fear: "I'm fine, it's just a pity that my brother Hua Rong, I don't know how he is now."

When Huarong was in Wuzhizhai, his main task was to deal with Wang Ying and the others. They were rivals. Seeing Song Jiang mentioning this person again, Wang Ying frowned and said, "Brother, there is no need to worry about Huarong. It's very comfortable to mix with officials."

"Brother Wang Ying, this statement is wrong. You don't know. When you rescued me just now, my brother Huarong was holding a bow and arrow in his hand. He could stop us, but he didn't shoot an arrow at me. He did it on purpose. Let me go. I don't know if his good intentions will be discovered by the magistrate, if he is discovered..." Song Jiang choked up and said, "Poor Brother Huarong..."

Wang Ying frowned. To be honest, based on his observations, Hua Rong didn't look anywhere else at all, and his attention was all on protecting the safety of the carriage. Rather than saying that he intentionally let Song Jiang go, it would be better to say that he He didn't care about Song Jiang's life or death, and forgot about such a person at the time.

Later he interrogated Liu Gao, and Liu Gao said that not only Murong Yanda was in the car, but also Gao Ming, Gao Qiu's son.

No wonder Huarong was so nervous to protect him. It turned out that the son of the Taiwei had made a mistake, and he couldn't bear it.

Wang Ying comforted Song Jiangdao: "Brother, listen to me, Hua Rong doesn't care at all..."

Before he could say "you", he was interrupted by Song Jiang, "My brother Hua Rong has the ability to walk through Yang with a hundred steps. Although we occupy the Yamen of Qingfengzhai now, it is not a long-term solution. Once the imperial court sends troops to attack, We are outnumbered, the more people help us, the better..."

Wang Ying's mind was still turning, but Zheng Tianshou, the white-faced gentleman at the side, had already realized that this was to pull Huarong into the water to strengthen their strength, "Brother is right, today we robbed the prison car, and Brother Huarong let go You, you will definitely be questioned when you go back! I am afraid that you have already been put in prison."

Song Jiang nodded his head heavily, "That's exactly what I mean. How can I let him go when I think that I have come to join Hua Rong and hurt him?"

Yan Shun didn't know whether he really understood or pretended to understand, and echoed, "With Murong Yanda's virtue as a dog official, I'm afraid Hua Rong has already been imprisoned. If we don't rescue him, what will the world think of us?! We can't do that. Unkind and unrighteous people!"

Song Jiang stood up, and begged Wang Ying, Yan Shun and Zheng Tianshou, "Please save my brother Huarong."

"Brother, little brother Zhesha!" Wang Ying and the other three said, and issued orders, "Come here, tell the little ones to get ready, attack Qingzhou City early tomorrow morning, and rescue Brother Huarong!"

Song Jiang thought of Liu Gao, and asked, "Where is Liu Gao?"

"Brother didn't tell me, I would have forgotten. My brother kindly saved Liu Gao's wife. She was ungrateful and asked Liu Gao to arrest you. This couple will not let you go!" Yan Shun said, "I will take the heads of these two for my brother."

Wang Ying was unwilling, "Liu Gao's wife will not be too late to kill me until I finish enjoying it!"

Yan Shun was very angry, "You still have this leisure time!"

Song Jiang waved his hand, "Liu Gao is a Wen Zhizhai, killing him is not worth it, how about it, let him go back, tell Murong Yanda that we are going to attack Qingzhou City tomorrow, tell him to wash his neck and wait for us!"

Wang Ying didn't know what Song Jiang was thinking, "Liu Gao's brother is so miserable, why let him go?!"

Yanshun and Zheng Tianshou immediately understood, "Brother is right! Now let Liu Gao go back and tell him to report the news. Otherwise, if we take down Qingzhou City, they will scold us for a sneak attack, and the victory is unwarranted."

Wang Ying thought they were crazy, they were robbers, they won't win by force.In addition, Qingzhou City is not Qingfengzhai, and the city walls are not of the same level. With a few hundred of them, taking down Qingzhou City is a fool's dream.

But Song Jiang said, and he could only listen. After all, he still had to count on Song Jiang to introduce them to Liangshan.

-

Liu Gao was locked in the stable, hungry and cold, and shivering. At this time, a young man and a leader came over with a lantern, grabbed him and dragged him out of the stable.

Liu Gao thought that Song Jiang was going to end him, so he screamed in fright, "Heroic man, spare your life, good man, spare your life."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Yan Shun ignored him, dragged him out of the stable, pushed him all the way to the gate of the city, and kicked him out, "Go back and tell Murong Yanda that we are going to attack Qingzhou City tomorrow, and tell him to wash it up." Wait for us on your neck!"

Liu Gao seemed to be dreaming, "I, can I go?"

"Why don't you leave?! We already have an internal response, what's the use of you, get out!" Yanshun said, and told the minions to close the city gate and shut Liu Gao out.

Internal response?Liu Gao shook his head and ran away. He must tell the prefect of Murong that Hua Rong is the internal response.

-

Gao Ming didn't sleep very well last night, he woke up at dawn, and couldn't sleep anymore, so he got up and went out to find Hua Rong.

Huarong lived next door to him, he knocked on the door and went in, and saw that Huarong was fully dressed, he must have slept with his clothes all night, maybe he hadn't slept at all.

I was too tired yesterday, so I didn't have time to say something, so Gao Ming said angrily: "You can't just forget about wronging people, today I have to ask Murong Yanda to apologize to you."

Hua Rong regretted and said: "...If I listened to you, I left Qingfengzhai the night before and went to Qingzhou City, maybe I could escape the robbery, but I rested all night, the news leaked, and let them kidnap Song Jiang. gone."

In previous plots, Huarong was not allowed to be reused in Qingfengzhai, and was suppressed by people with no ability like Liu Gao. Song Jiang was captured and became the fuse. Huarong is not dead yet, and Liu Gao is right under his nose When he caught his friend, he didn't take him seriously at all, so he made a big fuss and ran to Liangshan, where he was valued.

But now it's different, Hua Rong has a bright future, Liu Gao is just a dust in his eyes, and he doesn't even bother to talk to him.

Before Hua Rong didn't know that Song Jiang was colluding with the robbers, he stood up for Song Jiang out of the affection of his sister's savior. Now that he knew that Song Jiang was really colluding with the robbers, he didn't ask questions at all, as if he was handing over to the national law.

"If they are robbed, they will be robbed. There are so many of them, there is nothing we can do."

Hua Rong said: "Let's have something to eat later, let's leave here. Qingzhou will handle the affairs of Qingzhou. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. It was too dangerous yesterday. If I had known this, I would not have come to Qingzhou no matter what."

"That's why we were deceived by Murong Yanda!" Gao Ming snorted, "You're right, let's pack our bags and leave after we finish eating!"

After simply having breakfast, Gao Ming and Hua Rong went to see Murong Yanda, bid farewell and asked Murong Yanda to apologize.

As a result, Murong Yanda was frightened yesterday. It is said that he had a fever most of the night and fell asleep at dawn. He still hadn't woken up yet, and after waiting for another half an hour, he came late to meet them in the lobby.

Murong Yanda looked tired, "You guys are leaving? Why don't you stay for a few more days?"

Isn't this asking knowingly, Gao Ming said: "Guibao can't afford it, and people who wrong you don't even blink."

"Hey——" Murong Yanda explained: "I'm just being more cautious, what's wrong?"

Gao Ming didn't buy it, and looked at him straight, obviously wanting to ask for an explanation.

Murong Yanda had no choice but to think about how to apologize without losing his identity.

At this moment, someone from outside came to report in a hurry: "My lord, Liu Zhizhai came back and passed out after saying a word. He said that the bandits from Qingfeng Mountain have already occupied Qingfeng Village, and they are coming to fight today." Qingzhou City also said that we have internal support, so, that is..."

The person who came to report the letter looked at Hua Rong, unable to speak, but in the end his heart broke, and he closed his eyes and said, "It's Hua Rong!"

Hua Rong was furious immediately, "Nonsense!"

Murong Yanda was so startled that he almost jumped up, "Did you hear clearly?"

"The villain heard it very clearly. Liu Zhizhai said that Hua Rong is the internal response. He also said that the leader of Qingfeng Mountain said that he would come to attack Qingzhou City."

Gao Ming wished he could roll his eyes to the sky, "Wake up Liu Gao, and I'll ask him! Governor Murong, you wouldn't believe such a clumsy countermeasure, would you? Liu Gao caught Song Jiang and whipped him all over, Song Jiang Didn't kill him in a fit of anger, but let him come back to report the news?! Apparently it was to make him frame Huarong."

Murong Yanda bit his lip anxiously, and paced back and forth, "What's the benefit of framing Hua Rong?"

What's the advantage, of course, the good brothers will not let go, and they will earn money to expand their strength on the top of the mountain, "Tell us to fight in the nest! Tell you to lock up Huarong so that they can attack the city, or you can simply frame one or the other. .”

Hua Rong was also so angry that the three corpses jumped up, "Sir, don't listen to Liu Gao's nonsense, since they are going to attack Qingzhou and tell me to stand on the city wall, I don't believe that those leaders can't be killed by a single arrow!"

"Don't talk, let me think about it!" Murong Yanda paced back and forth.

He didn't know Huarong well. Although Huarong was under him as Wu Zhizhai at the beginning, he had little contact with him.Moreover, Gao Ming is the son of the Taiwei, just a dude. Although he has grown up in the past year, the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. ?

Furthermore, Hua Rong personally admitted that Song Jiang saved his sister's life. Will such kindness make Hua Rong forget the state's laws?

Warriors pay more attention to loyalty, sometimes when loyalty comes, they can do anything.

Gao Ming saw that Murong Yanda had been thinking for so long but still had no response, so he couldn't help but said, "I will use myself to guarantee Huarong! My reputation, official position, or life is up to you!"

Murong Yanda gradually calmed down. He doesn't believe anyone now. Blindly listening and believing blindly is useless. No one can guarantee him. If something goes wrong, no one can help him. He has to bear it himself. "I think it's better to let Hua Rong It's better to take a break. Come here, please Huarong go down and rest!"

Gao Ming gritted his teeth, "You don't trust Hua Rong, so lock him up first?"

Not to be outdone, Murong Yanda yelled: "I am the prefect of Qingzhou. If something happens, I will take care of it. You are just a guest from Mengzhou, so of course you are relaxed! I told Huarong to go down and be restrained in the room. Make an exception, otherwise, I will send him to prison!"

"If I say not to close it!" Gao Mingsi did not back down, "Hua Rong is my commander, I want to take him back to Mengzhou!"

Murong Yanda said angrily: "Now the city gate is closed, no one is allowed to enter or leave! If you do this again, I will doubt even you!"

Afraid of you?Gao Ming hummed: "Then you can doubt it, write a letter to the court, go, go now, Hua Rong and I are leaving! Let's see who dares to stop."

Murong Yanda has seen what it means to not enter oil and salt, and the words will not make sense, but if there is a fight, they will not be able to stop Hua Rong.

Hua Rong was originally full of anger and wanted to seek justice for herself, so that others could not misunderstand her, but when Gao Ming argued for her, she suddenly felt that even if the whole world misunderstood him, as long as Gao Ming believed He, he doesn't matter.

No matter what others think, Gao Ming wants them to go together, so he will take him along.

"My lord!" At this time, a general in uniform came in from outside. He looked mighty, 34 or [-] years old, and he bowed first when he saw Murong Yanda. "My lord, we have detected a group of bandits ten miles away. The last general begged to fight."

Thunderbolt Qin Ming is his commanding officer, much more capable than his bragging apprentice Huang Xin, Murong Yanda has only one card left in his hand, how can he play it at will, "Don't fight, defend the city That's it!"

Murong Yanda said to Gao Ming and Hua Rong again: "You have also heard that they are coming to attack Qingzhou City, for safety's sake, stay in the city for now."

Hua Rong was worried about Gao Ming, and shook his head at him, "Let's wait until the bandits retreat."

Although Gao Ming wanted to leave this ghostly place with Hua Rong, but the current situation does not allow it, and he can't act recklessly, so he nodded slightly.

Murong Yanda quickly said: "General Qin, take Huarong and Gao Zhifu to rest! Especially Huarong's, we must make arrangements."

Qin Ming had already heard what Liu Gao had conveyed, and exchanged glances with Prefect Murong, "The general will know." He said to Gao Ming and Hua Rong, "Please follow me."

How could Gao Ming follow Qin Ming's arrangement, and said directly: "I'm staying with Hua Rong, don't you believe him? I'll help you monitor him!" After finishing speaking, he entered a room with Hua Rong .

Qin Ming is just an officer under Murong Yanda, and even Murong Yanda dare not confront Gao Ming head-on, let alone him, "Please do what you want."

Outside the room were the yamen servants and servants brought by Gao Ming from Mengzhou, and outside them surrounded a circle of local yamen servants and soldiers from Qingzhou, keeping the courtyard airtight.

Gao Ming pulled the chair over, sat down at the table, and said angrily, "Liu Gao, you bastard, tell him to wait!"

Instead, Hua Rong comforted Gao Ming, "Why bother to be angry with this villain, I don't think he made it up, he should have heard it." He didn't excuse Liu Gao, but he was worried that he would scold Liu Gao too, fire The burning got hotter and hotter, and Gao Ming was furious.

"So, you must have seen clearly that Song Jiang wants to lure you up the mountain."

Hua Rong's eyes drooped, his expression was gloomy, "Song Jiang has a good plan, he is not afraid that I will go up the mountain and shoot him to death with an arrow."

"He came to join you. Not only did he fail to find you, but he was caught and beaten by your enemy Liu Gao. It's no wonder he can swallow this breath. Besides, he has taken a fancy to your ability. If you can go up the mountain and fall into the grass , Their momentum is growing, and they will attract more people to join us." Gao Ming said: "You are wanted by the government, and you have nowhere to go. Only they can take you in. If you don't fall into the grass, you will fall into the grass."

Song Jiang took revenge and wiped out his family. For example, Huang Wenbing, who reported him for writing anti-poetry, had his whole family killed.

But Song Jiang repays his kindness, so don't think about it. The Yuncheng arrester Zhu Dian who released Song Jiang back then was ordered by Song Jiang Li Kui to kill the small yamen he was guarding, forcing Zhu Dian to go to Liangshan.

Now, Gao Ming is not surprised that he framed Huarong Luocao, this is what Song Jiang can do.

Hua Rong sneered, "Let's live his dream, I would rather be beheaded by the government than become a bandit."

Gao Ming said: "Don't worry, with me here, no matter how much he framed you, I can help you get rid of the suspicion." After finishing speaking, Hua Rong looked at him blankly, with tenderness and joy, and a kind of love that he didn't like. The emotions that come out are very strange.

Hua Rong realized that he was staring at Gao Ming, and quickly looked away.

The two were chatting in the room. Suddenly, Hua Rong looked up at the beam and signaled Gao Ming not to speak. They both stared at the beam. After a while, Shi Qian showed his head and said in a low voice: : "It's me." Then he lightly clung to the pillar, and fell to the ground after a few strokes.

Shi Qian said with a sad face: "It's not good, the bandits from Qingfeng Mountain came to attack Qingzhou, and they have already arrived at the city, shouting... say, let Murong Gouguan release their brother Huarong."

Song Jiang, I @#%￥%!Gao Ming's heart was full of galloping horses, suppressing his anger, "Is there any more?"

Seeing Hua Rong's expression, Shi Qian couldn't bear it and said, "They also said that their brother saved Hua Rong's sister, and Hua Rong also saved their brother, and now it's their turn to save brother Hua Rong."

Hua Rong said angrily: "I'm going to see Murong Yanda and ask him to distribute bows and arrows to me. I must shoot these robbers to death!"

Shi Qian stopped him and said, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no." After hearing what those robbers said, the prefect of Murong was very angry. Knowing that Liu Gao lied to open the gate of Qingfengzhai, he had already ordered someone to break Liu Gao's legs and put him in a prison. Let Qin Ming arrest you now, and I want you to go to prison." Shi Qian was also anxious, and repeatedly scolded the robbers in Qingfeng Mountain as animals, framed good people, and asked others to be robbers with them.

Gao Ming definitely wouldn't let Qin Ming imprison Hua Rong, so he made a bunch of assumptions in his mind, thinking about how to stop this.

At this time, Qin Ming heard the commotion outside, and Qin Ming's husky voice came, "Is Huarong still inside?"

When Shi Qian heard this, he immediately climbed up to the pillar, and the moment the door opened, he got out of the roof.

Qin Ming walked in with his weapon mace in his hand, and said to Hua Rong, "Hua Rong, I'm sorry, you have to come with me."

"Go? Where are you going?!" Gao Ming stood in front of Hua Rong, "If you want to take him away, just step over me."

How could Huarong make Gao Ming suffer, and said: "It's okay." Instead, he protected Gao Ming behind him.

Qin Ming didn't dare to touch Gao Ming, so he didn't have to be soft on Hua Rong, "Master Zhifu said to find another place for you, come with me."

Gao Ming still refused, and rushed between the two of them to stop him, "If I say no, I won't do it!"

"If the government says yes!" Murong Yanda strode in, pointed at Huarong and said, "Gao Ming, do you know? Just now the robbers in the city shouted to save their brother Huarong! This city is full of soldiers I heard it all, if Hua Rong is not taken down, how do you tell them to treat this mansion?"

Gao Ming was not used to Murong Yanda, so he said sharply: "Such a crude and low-level countermeasure, you just drill in, maybe you know what's going on in your heart, it's just for your official title, and you don't want to bear a little pressure and Responsibility, arresting Hua Rong, is the easiest and simplest solution for you." Then he said to Qin Ming: "You should also be careful, if you are framed, he will not protect you."

How could Qin Ming not understand his boss, but he couldn't say anything in person and remained silent.

Murong Yanda was stabbed at the vital point, and said fiercely: "Arrest Hua Rong!" He knew that Hua Rong would definitely resist, and even Qin Ming might not be able to take him down, so he said: "Hua Rong, think clearly , if you resist, the sword has no eyes, maybe you will hurt Gao Zhifu."

This weak point was hit precisely, Hua Rong heard it, and really had no intention of resisting.

Murong Yanda winked at Qin Ming, Qin Ming had no choice but to be the bad guy, and said to Hua Rong, "I'm sorry." He took out the rope and walked towards him.

At this moment, Gao Ming rushed up again and stopped Qin Ming, "Get out of the way!"

Murong Yanda was the only one who could take action against Gao Ming at the scene. He was also angry at this moment, stepped forward angrily, and pushed Gao Ming, "Don't be arrogant!"

This push didn't matter, Gao Ming floated a few steps like a piece of paper, and hit the table with his back, and fell on his back under the eyes of everyone.

Murong Yanda was dumbfounded, he just used a little bit of strength, and swear to God, he definitely didn't intend to overthrow Gao Ming.

When Hua Rong saw him, he immediately rushed over, picked him up, and called Gao Ming's name repeatedly in panic.

When Murong Yanda and Qin Ming saw that something was wrong, they all gathered around, and even ran in with the servant of the Mengzhou government office who was standing at the door of the house.

Murong Yanda tremblingly said: "I, I didn't do it on purpose, Gao Ming, are you alright?"

Gao Ming frowned, "It hurts, it hurts..."

"Where does it hurt?" Hua Rong was about to hug him to find a doctor, but at this moment, he felt Gao Ming scratching his palm, with some meaning behind it, he couldn't help hesitating, guessing that Gao Ming might have done it on purpose.

And Gao Ming also opened his eyes leisurely, looked at the people around him and asked, "Who are you?"

The surroundings were silent for a moment, and no one knew what to say.

If Hua Rong hadn't received Gao Ming's signal just now, he would have been scared to death, but he still wasn't sure about his performance, so he said worriedly, "I'm Hua Rong! Why do you ask that?"

Gao Ming rubbed his temples, and suddenly said angrily: "Where's Lin Chong?! Yesterday at Fu'an's house, I just saw Mrs. Lin, and he shouted downstairs, scaring me to death!"

Although Murong Yanda was the magistrate in Qingzhou, he knew more or less what was going on in Tokyo. He knew that Gao Yanei once fell in love with a married woman and had a feud with a coach named Lin Chong.

And this incident goes back more than a year.

Qin Ming didn't know, and answered honestly: "There is no one named Lin Chong here."

Gao Ming shouted: "I don't know if there is Lin Chong?! Who are you? Where is my father?"

"This is Qingzhou, not Tokyo, and the Taiwei is not here." Another honest man, Qin Ming.

Gao Ming scolded: "What are you all? Why did I come to Qingzhou!"

At this time, Shi Qian shouted outside the door: "Gaozhifu hit his head and lost his memory!" He got out from the roof, walked around, and entered the courtyard as if nothing had happened, just in time to see Murong Yanda pushing the high office.

Gao Yanei looked at it and pretended to fall on purpose.

The yamen servants from Mengzhou heard that this was okay, and they all looked at Murong Yanda. Although they didn't say it directly, their eyes clearly said: We are all witnesses, and you pushed it.

It's okay to push Gao Qi's precious son to lose his memory? !Although Murong Yanda had his sister and imperial concubine as his backer, Gao Yanei's injury was no joke.

Anyway, he's in for a big deal.

But how could it be such a coincidence?I just heard that a military general fell off a horse and broke his brain, but how can he lose his memory after bumping into a flat ground?

Ninety percent of the time Gao Ming is pretending to be sick!

Murong Yanda was thinking about countermeasures in pain, when Gao Ming inadvertently gave him an evil smile.

He was startled, this is not [-]%, he is just pretending to be sick to blackmail him!

Murong Yanda clenched his back teeth, Gao Ming, you little bastard, you really belong to me!
