Xia Dehai's treasure ship is capable of fighting against the huge waves in the South China Sea. However, the wooden sea-going ship is lagging behind the steel giant ship in terms of endurance and wind and wave resistance. The fishermen are like accurate weather experts, always keenly aware of the situation. Sensing the strange change in the weather, he hid the boat in the island harbor.
Not to mention that when the treasure ship arrived in the Tamsui River Basin, it was as stable on the ship as if it were flat ground. Not only did the escorts from the north not feel dizzy, but they were also able to talk and laugh happily on the ship. As expected, the beautiful scenery of Liangshanbo cannot be overstated, and a group of rough old men couldn't stop watching it.
Liang Chuan's song "Grandpa was born between heaven and earth" pushed the atmosphere on the treasure ship to a climax. Xia Dehai directly memorized this song and regarded it as the barcarolle on the ship from now on!
As expected, things did not go as Liang Chuan expected. In the eight-hundred-mile water moor, there were only a few fishing boats on the water emitting a little sparkle of light. In the second half of the night, Liang Chuan got very drunk with his escorts on the boat, and he caught up with a man behind the boat. A fleet.
Sima Xun got five golden melon seeds from Liangchuan and got off the boat happily. The waterway of Liangshanbo did not lead to the ocean, so this boat will definitely pass through Jeju again in the future. Sima Xun clearly remembered this account, and now he has five golden melon seeds. , the next trip won’t be so cheap.
As soon as he got off the boat, he threw the envelope into the corner, and with five golden melon seeds in his pocket, he went to fight Sister Yao for three rounds.
Among the three people, there was a thin man named Wu Ji. He used to be a teacher nearby. He really couldn't make money in the school, so he went to the sea and followed Sima Xun to engage in "legal" robbery on the canal, not to mention the three of them. With these years, I have also made a lot of money.
Sima Xun got five melon seeds this time, but he was not open-minded about what he did. As soon as he got off the boat, he told Wu Ji and Wu Ji that there was no cargo on the boat and they could not collect the tax for crossing the river. In fact, he swallowed a few golden melon seeds without thinking about it at all. Take it out and divide it.
As soon as Wu Ji saw Sima Xun running back to the kiln sister's house after dark, he knew that this guy was still acting like a good boy after getting an advantage. He clicked his tongue and was a bit chatty. The two looked at each other and spat. Sima Xunding said again. If you get any shady benefits, you can eat alone.
There was only such a big piece of meat on the river, and the three of them barely ate half full. Sima Xun was not a charity person, so pulling Wu Ji would be the end of his kindness. Could it be that the prostitute sister wanted to pull him in?
As soon as Sima Xun left, Wu Ji was idle. He walked around the room and saw the letter that Sima Xun had thrown on the table. He looked around and opened it by accident.
You don’t know if you don’t see it, but it almost scares Wu Ji out of his soul!
This letter was actually handwritten by the then Prime Minister Xia Song, and was a private message sent to Huang Cheng, the magistrate of Shouzhou, asking him to cooperate with Liang Chuan!
He is different from Sima Xun. What Sima Xun did on the river was rough work. To put it bluntly, he was no different from the thieves who robbed the road, except that he had the skin of an official. He, Wu Ji, was different. He was a scholar but had great ambitions. God was not wise enough to let him join the ranks of Sima Xun and others. Otherwise, with his talents and learning, he would have to exert some residual enthusiasm for the imperial court.
Sima Xun was the one who copied money on the Guangji River, and he was the one who checked the official documents. Many official documents sent from Bianjing to Jingdong Road passed by this river, and countless documents were signed by Xia Song himself. From time to time, Wu Ji would express his views on current affairs and Xia Xianggong's documents from time to time, but no one paid any attention to him.
This time is different!
If the boat they blocked during the day was really Mr. If you report it, that would be a great achievement!
Just in case, Wu Ji went to the brothel to ask Sima Xun about the origin of the letter and whether there were people on the ship who identified themselves as Xia Song.
Sima Xun had already had his semen and the worm in his head had been drunk by the kiln sister in the kiln until he was unconscious. He felt so good that he stopped pretending and said drunkenly: "This morning... that guy... seems to have said something... What about summer onions and winter bamboo shoots!”
Wu Ji asked anxiously: "Is it Xia Song?"
Sima Xun slammed the table and said, "Just... you said... what a coward!"
Wu Ji was overjoyed but did not dare to show any trace of his pride. He quickly left the brothel and went straight to Jeju Mansion. Report this important news, it is vital information to the adults in front of you!
Jeju Prefectural General Judge Hao Tong fought with his concubine for five or six rounds on the bed. He was finally defeated due to lack of physical strength and lack of hardness. The concubine was furious, and the war he had finally started was extinguished in this way. , the pink fist hit Hao Tong for a while, which made Hao Tong even more frustrated.
"Master Jianzhou is not good!" Wu Ji rushed to Hao Tong's house and howled wildly. Hao Tong was exhausted due to official duties, and he was already full of resentment because of the unfavorable sexual intercourse. Most of his subordinates were still talking nonsense. Saying something was wrong was more like slapping him in the face. He suddenly became angry and roared: "Why are you crying in mourning! I'm not dead yet!"
All state government affairs such as military affairs, money and grain, household registration, taxes and servitude, prison litigation, etc. are all the responsibilities of Tongpan. Among them, grain transportation, water conservancy, farming, horse herding, and river and sea defense are the top priorities, so Tongpan is also called "Tongpan". For Jianzhou, Wu Ji came to look for Hao Tong in the middle of the night and he really didn't find the wrong person. It was just that the timing was wrong and he bumped into Hao Tong's bullet hole. It turned out to be a great success, but now it may be in vain!
Hao Tong, wearing a silk nightgown, rushed into the yard without having time to tidy up his appearance. He gritted his teeth and wanted to make this guy who didn't have eyesight in the middle of the night suffer. Everyone in the mansion was so scared that they fell silent and the door of the mansion was opened wide. He tied Wu Ji in and served him with a fire stick first, beating Wu Ji until he cried and fought to the death!
Hao Tong was able to vent his anger. He moved a stool comfortably and wanted to interrogate Wu Ji personally. He asked: "Where did this madman come from and what are you screaming about in the middle of the night?"
Wu Ji traveled thousands of miles to show hospitality but received a good beating. He wiped his tears and said, "Master Jianzhou wrongly blamed the villain. The villain was originally a Cao Liang on the Guangji River. Now I have a day-old news that I want to tell you!"
Hao Tong was stunned. He was a bit indiscriminate in beating people at night. He quickly backed off and asked Wu Jidao: "Are you the one who did it by Sima Xun?"
Wu Ji looked at Hao Tong with a little fear. Hao Tong didn't even bother to look at this little guy and spat: "That guy is from the prefect's side and has nothing to do with me! What kind of evil wind did you blow today? Why do you come to find me!"
Wu Ji only told the story roughly once, and Hao Tong came up and slapped Wu Ji's thin face! After the beating, his face turned green, and he was so angry that he almost jumped up and said: "I told you guys raised by kiln sisters to be more careful. You dare to stop anyone. Now it's okay. Stop this big guy for me." Disaster is coming!"
The people below saw that something was wrong, and they all froze in place. Hao Tong cursed: "Why don't you hurry up and chase me, are you all stupid?"
Xia Song's name is now well known to everyone in the court, and his temperament and hobbies are also known to everyone. There is one skill that is indispensable for being an official in the court, that is, you must be well-informed. You must find out clearly about the leader's hobbies. If he If you like to drink Longjing, you go to give it to Pu'er. If you like to play calligraphy and painting, you go to give it to antiques. It flatters your buttocks. It's all in vain and it offends the boss.
Who is Xia Song? He is an out-and-out villain who must avenge his enemies. He loves money as much as his life. He cares not about human feelings but gold. When it comes to playing people, he has few rivals in the officialdom. Now he has climbed into the position of Deputy Prime Minister and dares to stop him. Merchant ship, life is too dull and you want to find something exciting to relax?
On the one hand, Hao Tong asked his men to drive a fast boat to Liangshan to pursue Liang Chuan's treasure ship and follow the ship. On the other hand, he asked the prefect to inform the prefect that there was Song Xiangquan, the land and water transfer envoy of Jingdong Road. Song Xiangquan has an extremely close relationship with Xia Song. If Xia Song's people are killed on his own territory, Xia Song will let him go. Song Xiangquan will not let him go in order to curry favor with Xia Song.
The riots in Jeju Prefecture soon attracted the attention of surrounding state capitals. Shandong has been a troubled place since ancient times. As the old saying goes, chaos in Shandong has not yet cooled down, and the thieves in Shandong are an outstanding group of heroes in the green forest. All the land and water groups in Jeju Prefecture came out, thinking that there were rebels who were rebelling and attacking Jeju Prefecture. The prefecture government heard the news and moved, but the city gates were closed tightly and everyone was waiting for them!
Nowadays, the world is not peaceful, people's hearts are unstable, and the number of lawless criminals is increasing year by year. In recent years, Shandong is located in the Central Plains, but there is a Mount Tai. The continuous mountains have given the criminals a place to hide and rebel, and they have robbed states and houses. One after another, it is like the Liangshanbo area, with mountains and rivers, and countless strong bandits hiding there!
Hao Tong doesn't care what heroes are hidden in Liangshan Po. If this thing is messed up, he will have to find a hilltop and go to Luocao himself!
It was night, and the waves in Liangshan Boli were calm, but there was a trace of restlessness. The sky was dark and starless. Xia Dehai's crew was the first to notice that something was wrong. Behind the treasure ship, a group of river boats were chasing after it quickly, and it seemed that human power was shaking the oars to catch up. , Only then can we catch up with the speed of the treasure ship sailing purely with sails.
"Someone from my boss is catching up!" Xia Dehai reported to Liang Chuan urgently.
Liang Chuan asked for a chair and sat on the bow of the boat and said, "I told you, what was supposed to come finally came!"
The bodyguards were fully armed and stood at the bow of the ship. Xia Dehai went down to the cabin and opened the cannon holes. Liang Chuan was afraid that instead of being from the government, a group of "Liangshan heroes" came and he would be busy!
Liangchuan did not become a den of thieves after Song Jiang went up the mountain. Before Song Jiang, there was Chao Gai, before Chao Gai there was Wang Lun, and before Wang Lun there were other strong men who occupied this geomantic treasure land and pulled out the tiger skin to become the king of the mountain.
"Master Liang, please wait!" Hao Tong asked someone to hold the bow of the boat and shout loudly to Liang Chuan. However, there was a strong wind on the lake, and no matter how loud the sound was, it was difficult to reach Liang Chuan's ears.
Liang Chuan sat on the bow of the boat and looked at the boat coming from behind. The people on the boat were gentle and frail. At first glance, they didn't have the physique of a pirate who robbed on the water. Being a water thief is no better than other people, and his skills in the water must be perfect. This requires that the water thief's physique is better than that of ordinary people. Otherwise, once he falls into the water, he will not have the strength to go ashore, and his belly will float after just two gulps of water, and he will become the Dragon King. For dinner, there was even a robbery.
"Crash it over!"
ah! Xia Dehai thought he heard wrongly, and Liang Chuan asked again with a smirk on his lips: "Can you handle it?"
Xia Dehai had stopped doing such illegal activities for many years. Now that he returned to his old business, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional. He said proudly: "The boats on the other side are like paper. I can handle another hundred more!"
Xia Dehai furled the sails, and the speed of the ship suddenly slowed down. The boatmen in the fleet behind were still paddling hard, retreating and advancing. The Dabao Ship suddenly slowed down, and it made a loud noise. The big ship was like a bull rushing into a herd of sheep, cutting through the waves, pushing the small boat to the sides, smashing and overturning it!
Hao Tong's boat was behind and was lucky enough not to be overturned. However, he was frightened by Liang Chuan's arrogant behavior and cried and shouted for Liang Chuan to show mercy!
The escorts had a wonderful view at the bow of the ship. These people were holding government lanterns, and they looked like lackeys of the government. The way the people in the government suffered losses showed that they had no problem!
There was a burst of joyful laughter on the lake. Liang Chuan waved his hand to stop these quarrelsome escorts and ordered them to lower the rope to the water to save people. After all, they are still living lives, and there is no need to end them with the people below. Forced on the road.
People were rescued one by one, and Hao informed him of his origins. A rope was lowered from the boat and he was also lifted up!
Hao Tong is taking a gamble with his life in hand. On the one hand, he does not want to offend Xia Song, but on the other hand, he also wants to take this opportunity to show his loyalty to Xia Song and pave the way for his future!
Xia Song is one of the most popular people in the court now, and if nothing else happens, he will definitely be one of Pingzhang's candidates in the future. Jia Chaochang is now Prime Minister, and it is already too late to curry favor with him. If he can get on Xia Song's train, will his future official career be prosperous?
"I don't know that Mr. Liang has come all the way. Many of the junior officials in Jeju have offended me before. I hope Mr. Liang will not care about the faults of others."
Liang Chuan quickly stopped Hao Tong and said, "Who is your lord?"
"The official is Jeju Tongpan!" After saying this, he raised his face, fearing that the person's face could not be seen clearly in the dark, and the favor was in vain!
Liang Chuan was confused and said: "Your Excellency, you are trying to break this villain. I was also a guilty person before. That is to say, Lord Meng Xia reminded me that the rest of my life will be smoother. I cannot bear this." ah!"
Hao Tong was able to achieve the position of Tong San, equivalent to a prefecture-level mayor, and he was considered someone in the court. He had heard of Liang Chuan's name a long time ago. Ding Wei's incident happened one after another, and finally he was able to make a comeback with Xia Song. This experience is more legendary than the songbook!
"I heard that Sima Xun was so arrogant that he dared to rob Lord Xia's boat. Your Majesty has already tied up the guy. When your Lord returns one day, he will be ordered to obey the law to show mercy to you." heart of!"
At first, Liang Chuan sat on a chair and looked coldly at Hao Tong. Later, Hao Tong's attitude softened, and he stood up and sang with Hao Tong.
This general judge is quite efficient.
"Mr. Xia Xia told me when he left home that he should keep a low profile and not ruin his reputation. However, as soon as Sima Xun got on the ship, he made every possible effort to make things difficult for him. The whole ship was actually searched by him. I just want to ask, Have you found anything you want on the ship?"
Hao Tong felt like thorns on his back, and there was a cold wind on the lake, but he was sweating profusely. There was something in Liang Chuan's words that was obviously hitting him!
"Your Excellency holds an important position, and this evil official deserves to die. I have already reported to the magistrate Ming and the transfer envoy. This is a little bit of my feelings expressed by Xia Guanquan to Mr. Xia and Mr. Liang on behalf of Jeju Shishen!"
After saying that, several more boxes were lowered from the boat and came up. Hao Tong clapped his hands, and several boxes full of copper coins appeared in front of everyone!
Although it was only copper coins, several large boxes contained tens of thousands of coins. This was not a small amount!
All the escorts were dumbfounded. In the past, they had only heard that the government was extorting money from the people. The boss only heard that they worked in Xia Song's mansion. When they went to work at the local level, even these local officials had to bow to their boss!
Liang Chuan didn't show any greed for money at this time. On the one hand, the entire ship had been filled with two million yuan not long ago. This group represented Xia Song. If Xia Song knew that he was beating him all the way, They were flaunting and deceitful, and the two people who finally met honestly were afraid that they would fall out again.
Hao Tong thought that Liang Chuan's face would at least be troubled when he saw so much money, but he didn't expect that he didn't even blink, and he suddenly had a bad feeling!
