Chapter 209 General Shi

After a while, Zhao Zhen saw Shi Yong in the meeting hall. He was about eight feet long, with a pale yellow bone on his face, a pair of bright eyes, and no moustache. Wrapped in a pig-mouth scarf, with two Taiyuan Prefecture gold-wrapped twisted wire copper rings on the back of the head; a collared soap shirt on top, a white collar tied around the waist; knee pads on the lower legs, and eight hemp shoes. At first glance, it looked like he was here in a hurry.

Zhao Zhen stepped forward quickly and saw the gift. Zhao Yuanli brought a fruit box of wine, and Zhao Zhen held three glasses.

Shi Yong thanked Zhao Zhen and drank.

Zhao Zhen opened his mouth and said, "Where is the warrior?"

Shi Yong said: "Officials, please listen: I am a member of Daming Mansion, and I only make a living by gambling. Because I grew up, there was a nickname in my hometown called [General Shi], because I was famous for gambling. He beat a man to death with one punch and fled to Cangzhou's Chaidaguan Village. He stayed there for more than four months. The villain was restless and had nothing to do in Chaidaguan Village. Mr. Chai."

"The villain inquired about the reputations of the officials and Shiyuhu Baoyi Songjiang in Shandong and Hebei, so he went all the way south and came to the border of Yuncheng County to seek refuge. When he got here, he thought that both of them were officials, and for a moment After hesitating, I met Brother Zhu Fu talking to me while drinking in the hotel, and then I realized that we had arrived at the border of Liangshan County. "

Zhu Fu continued: "I saw that Brother Shi Yong was well-spoken and tall, so I came up to chat with him, and then I got to know Brother Shi Yong, and I used this to introduce him to high-ranking officials."

Zhao Zhen said: "Thanks to brothers for their hard work, I will miss Brother Shi by fighting for something."

After chatting for a long time, Zhao Zhen asked people to invite Jiao Ting, Fourth Sister Hei, Bao Xu, Ruan Xiaoer, Sun An, Deng Fei, Luan Tingyu, Wu Sanniang, Liu Tang, and Xue Yong from Nandaying. Six people, including Zhu Fu, and twelve heroes gathered together. The fat goose, cooked meat, and delicate fruits were placed on the table in front of everyone. The on-duty butler came forward to serve and warm the wine.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Zhao Zhen asked: "Brother, I have always heard about Chai Daguan's reputation, but it's a pity that I haven't had the chance to meet him. I wonder how good Chai Daguan is?"

Shi Yong said: "After all, Mr. Chai Daguan is a descendant of Chai Shizong. Everyone in Henghai County treats him a little bit. No one in the official position is embarrassed. He is allowed to hunt and steal. The officers and soldiers dare not look at him seriously. It's just the official position." If you don't disturb them, we and others who have taken refuge will not dare to leave the village. Chai Daguan has a large farm and a village. He carries bows, arrows, flags and guns, rides eagles and hunting dogs, and hunts with the villagers for fun. "

Zhao Zhen listened and said: "I also heard that since Chen Qiao abdicated the throne, Emperor Taizu Wude gave him an [iron pledge of oath]. No one at home dares to bully him."

Sun An said: "The Sa family has also heard about Chai Daguan's name, and wanted to join him at first. But now it seems that he is aggrieved after all. It's better for me to wait here and be more comfortable."

Fourth Sister Hei said: "It is considered very good. After all, my ancestor is also a nobleman from Tianhuang. He is also rich and wealthy. I have also heard that he specializes in recruiting heroes from all over the world and keeps thirty or fifty of them at home. There are everywhere in the world. Supporting the heroes of the past is also a place of refuge in times of crisis.”

After everyone heard this, they all praised Fourth Sister Hei for seeing it clearly.

Zhao Zhen continued: "It is also said that Wang Lun, the scholar in white clothes, Du Qian, who is touching the sky, and Song Wan, who is the king of Yunli, also came from the official residence of the firewood collector. I wonder if Brother Shi Yong can do it." Have you ever met three people?"

Shi Yong said: "I have met Wang Lun and Du Qian before, but I have never met Brother Song Wan. I live in Dongzhuang, but Brother Song Wan lives in Xizhuang. They are forty miles apart." Yu Li, the villain didn’t dare to wander in, so he missed it.”

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said: "It's a pity that we were in a hurry today and didn't call the three people. Now brother Wang Lun has become the county's preceptor. Du Qian and Song Wan have also become deputy commanders in the army. There is still one person in the county. They are also old acquaintances of the brothers. He is also the county inspector and the deputy envoy of the horse army. Brother Yang Lin of [Jinbaozi] also went out on business. In a few days, he called Du Qian and others to pick up the wind for his brother. , meeting an old friend in a foreign country is also a beautiful thing.”

Shi Yong said with envy: "I don't think all the brothers in the past joined the army and had a bright future."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said, "I was about to ask my brother, do you have any plans?" Shi Yong hesitated and said, "A high official, I am just a common man in the market. He has two arms and strength, and he also knows some guns and sticks. In the army, There are many things I don’t know, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to do the job.”

Zhao Zhen said: "It doesn't matter. Brothers like us are mostly from rough backgrounds. Fortunately, there are also heroes like [Hua Monk] Lu Zhishen in the army who were born as officers. If brothers want to make contributions in the army, just learn more from them. If you don't want to , It’s not a bad idea to be the head steward in my village.”

After hearing this, Shi Yong stood up and thanked Zhao Zhen, saying: "I am an official, but I am impatient and may cause trouble in the village. I am willing to serve as a pawn in the army and follow my brothers in the army to practice martial arts." It’s also happier. My younger brother has heard about Lu Zhishen’s reputation many times in Hebei, and he doesn’t want to be a high-ranking official.”

Zhao Zhen immediately promised: "Brother is skilled in martial arts and will also be the deputy chief of the capital, commanding hundreds of people. From now on, I will see my brother's meritorious service and promotion."

Shi Yong was overjoyed after hearing this. He stood up and thanked again.

When the business was settled, all the heroes exchanged cups for cups. From noon to evening, everyone dispersed.
