Half an hour later, in a brothel called Shihuaguan in the city, the door of a bedroom on the second floor was kicked open. On the bed, exclamations immediately sounded, and a man hugged the quilt. , a beautiful woman with a face full of panic. When a burly man wearing only underwear next to her was about to take the sword placed next to her, two steel knives were already placed on his neck.
After looking at it, the man immediately said angrily: "Who are you? Do you know who I am??"
"Then take a closer look at who we are??" I saw a guard holding a knife next to him said with a cold look, and took out an iron plate engraved with the three characters "Leading Mountain Guard".
The "Leading Mountain Guard" man trembled and said quickly: "Brother, is there any misunderstanding? I am Hou Xing, the commander of the Jinan branch of the intelligence room, and I want to see my brother!!"
"Commander Hou Xing stayed in a brothel overnight and neglected his duties. My brother has ordered me to take him down immediately." At this moment, gentle footsteps sounded, and Yu Wenling walked in with two of his men with murderous looks on their faces.
"Yu Wenling" Hou Xing took a look and immediately gritted his teeth and said, "I knew you were a poisonous snake. Did you frame me in front of my brother?"
"My brother's eyes are so bright that I can fool him at will. In addition, the commander is staying in a brothel at this time. Do you need me to tell you? I have told you a long time ago that our intelligence room is different from other rooms. It is a pity that you, the commander I won’t listen.” Yu Wenling shook his head.
"You bastard," Hou Xing said angrily. He broke away from the two guards, pulled out his sword, and killed Yu Wenling.
Yu Wenling's eyes turned cold, and instead of retreating in fear, he took a step forward.
"puff.."
Seeing Hou Xing trembling slightly, looking at the ruthless gaze in front of him, the sword in his hand slowly fell to the ground. When the leading mountain guard next to him saw it, his expression suddenly changed. At this moment, a sharp dagger was inserted into On Hou Xing’s body.
"You, you..." Hou Xing fell down unwillingly.
"Ah!!" Seeing that Hou Xing was actually killed, the prostitute on the bed exclaimed in fear.
"Shut up," shouted one of the mountain guards.
"Guys, you all saw it, it was the commander who wanted to kill me first, so I was forced to fight back." Yu Wenling looked at the leading mountain guard who looked a little ugly at this time, and explained quickly.
Hearing this, a soldier captain frowned and said: "You don't have to explain to me, let's go!!"
After the leading mountain guard left, the two men who followed him said nervously, "Flag Commander, now??"
Yu Wenling glanced at the dead Hou Xing and ordered coldly: "Find a place to bury Hou Xing's body."
"yes!!"
. . . .
On the next day, outside the inner hall of the government office, after Yu Wenling arrived, he looked at Wang Su who was guarding outside and immediately said: "Brother Wang"
Wang Su glanced at it, but his eyes were a little cold at the moment, "Brother is discussing things with Military Advisor Gongsun and Chai Zhizhou, you have to wait a moment."
"Brother Wang, I..." Seeing this scene, Yu Wenling wanted to explain.
"You don't need to say anything. Now you have gained my brother's trust, but don't you think your methods are too ruthless? Then Hou Xing is also an old man in the mountains for many years. You killed him with one sword. I know your martial arts very well. That's not the case at all," Wang Su said seriously.
"Brother Wang, you misunderstood me"
"I didn't misunderstand. I underestimated you. Don't come to me again in the future. Of course, you don't need to come to me for help." Wang Su said and walked into the inner hall.
When Yu Wenling saw this scene, he sighed immediately.
At this time, in the inner hall, Song Jiang looked at Chai Jin and said, "The eldest son of the Li family??"
"Exactly, Li Heng is the eldest son of the Li family. He has a gentle personality and is polite to others. With his talent, there should be no problem in getting a job. However, because of the Li family, he cannot serve as an official." Chai Jin nodded.
"This is a good candidate. Although the Li family is rich due to the affairs of their ancestor Li Shixiang, none of their children are officials. Using Li Yan will not only represent a reward from my brother, but also completely draw the Li family into my Among the Liangshan camp," Gongsun Sheng said with a smile.
Song Jiang nodded, "Although the Li family still has some concerns, they have indeed contributed a lot to Liangshan and stabilize Jinan. Then let Li Heng come to see me tomorrow."
"Yes, brother"
"By the way, how many direct descendants of the Li family are there??" Song Jiang asked. Using the Li family is equivalent to respecting his ancestor Li Chongjin. The world of the Song Dynasty was stolen from the Later Zhou Dynasty, so the Liangshan uprising gained another name.
"My aunt gave birth to a son and a daughter, the eldest son Li Heng and the second daughter Li Jia. However, my cousin Yan'er is also named in my aunt's name, so she has the title of direct descendant. The concubines are Li Xu and Li Miao. In fact, Li Xu is very talented. Not bad, uncle loves me very much," Chai Jin said.
"It's not okay to be a commoner. This is different from Wen Yao's situation. Wenyao took the merit examination himself and served as the county magistrate. Unless I, Liangshan, can hold the scientific examination in the future, direct recruitment cannot be better than that of a direct descendant." After hearing this, Gongsun Sheng shook his head and said: "My brother has won over wealthy families and respects the ancient system. If he does not follow the concubines, it will definitely cause unrest in the Li family and make other children of the aristocratic families feel jealous!!"
Song Jiang nodded. The difference between concubines and concubines in this era is indeed too great, especially among wealthy families. Since ancient times, wives have been married to virtuous people, and concubines have been married to women. Anyone who can become the head wife of a family often has extraordinary power from his mother's family, and vice versa. The attendants are usually ordinary people or women from brothels. If the children born from these two parties are treated the same, it will not be a big deal. Even if the concubine is admitted to the exam, there is still a gap. Han Wenyao was admitted, but in Even within such a famous family as the Han family, it is not worth mentioning.
"Li Xu will talk about it later! Did you just say that he has two legitimate daughters?"
"right"
"The most prestigious family in Jinan Prefecture is the Liu and Li families. Brothers Wu Song have not gotten married yet, which has always been a worry in my heart. Just choose one of them to marry Brother Wu Song!!" Song Jiang's eyes moved. Someone was trying to figure it out. If he uses his own daughter to convince Wu Song, he will immediately break off the relationship.
When Chai Jin heard this, his face changed slightly and he said carefully: "Which one does brother want Brother Wu Song to marry?"
"Of course she is the real legitimate daughter Li Jia. Brother Wu Song is a hero of the world and the leader of the Bai Sheng Army. How could he marry a concubine?" Gongsun Sheng said with a smile.
"That's right, it's Li Jia."
When Chai Jin heard this, he quickly said: "Brother, cousin Jia'er has a bit of a naughty personality and her temperament has not yet been settled. In fact, cousin Yan'er is better. She is well-educated and cautious. What's more important is that she also cares about her aunt. "under the door"
Gongsun Sheng looked at it and said a little surprised: "What's wrong with you? Your face has changed??"
"No, no," Chai Jin said in a panic.
After Song Jiang saw it, he smiled and said, "You don't like Li Jia, do you?"
Chai Jin trembled, and after a slight silence, he begged and clasped his fists: "Brother, please do it!!"
"Haha" Song Jiang laughed loudly and said immediately: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I love Brother Wu Song, but the relationship between you Chai Jin and me, Song Jiang, is still taboo. So be it! You are responsible for arranging this matter!! "
"Thank you brother," Chai Jin said happily.
"Don't delay this matter. It must be resolved before I return to Liangshan. I will drink your wedding wine before going back," Song Jiang said.
"Thank you brother"
After seeing several people discuss it, Wang Su whispered: "Brother, Yu Wenling is here."
Song Jiang's eyes moved and he said: "Okay, let's leave it like this for now. You go down and prepare. We will go to the gunpowder workshop later."
"yes"
