Water Margin Survival

The passage of time did not bring any room for change to the Zeng family's mansion, which was anxious about the authenticity of the jade seal. On the contrary, Zengtou City, which had always been deserted, was very lively during this period.Heroes from all walks of life flocked to this former corner of the rivers and lakes, and there were no less than four groups of spies who missed and were captured. At this time, Elder Zeng was soberly aware of the coming crisis.

"Damn it, who leaked the news!" Looking at the helpless five sons in front of him, the always mature Elder Zeng couldn't help swearing and venting his anger.

"You said the court of the Great Song Dynasty was not very good, why are there so many strange people among the people? I don't know if this thing is true or not, but all these people smell it!" said the second son, Zeng Mi.

"That's right, our house is about to become a vegetable garden, and anyone who wants to come can come! Dad, we have killed four groups of people, but we can't stop killing them. When will it be the end? If this jade seal is fake in the future Yes, we didn't eat the mutton, I'm afraid we'll end up in a mess! Think about it, how many powers will we offend in the end!"

The fourth son, Zeng Kui, looked at Elder Zeng anxiously. At this time, a deep sadness appeared on the face of this Jurchen who had never known what "fear" was.

"Why don't you go to hell, anyway, Wanyan's family has already claimed the emperor in the north, and our Jurchens have already raised their flags to show their swords. Why are you still staying in Song Dynasty? Boss, what do you think?" The third son Zeng asked The temper is most similar to that of the eldest son, both of whom are extremely hot-tempered.

"What's the use of me saying it? Why don't dad make up his mind?" Zeng Tu muttered dissatisfied.

Zeng Suowian looked at Elder Zeng and said, "Father, if you don't say anything else, the old man Master has already become suspicious! I'm afraid we can't keep the secret any longer, let's talk about it openly, he is not an outsider! "

I once saw four of the five sons open their mouths.There is no constructive opinion at all, it is all about venting dissatisfaction, and I am depressed and happy at the moment, needless to say I am depressed.What is gratifying is that the most beloved and resourceful youngest son has not yet spoken.Looking at him right now, he said, "Old Five, it's up to now. What can you do!"

"Give Yu Baosi and Yuxi to the imperial court together!" Zeng Sheng didn't make any noise at all. He became a blockbuster, and only made the four brothers present look at each other in dismay. Now that it is going to be handed over to the court, why did you leave it behind so mysteriously?"

Zeng Sheng said unhurriedly: "One moment and another moment! How did we know that the matter would cause an uproar, so that everyone in the world would know that my family got a jade seal!"

Zeng Tu patted his leg, and said: "I said at the time, don't cause such things! The Song Dynasty has never been wronged by us, and we are here to be the emperor of the soil. How can we not feel comfortable? But who listens to me. Now there is a gap between the two masters and us!"

"Who leaked the news!?" Zeng Mi said thoughtlessly.

"Either the problem lies with Yu Baosi, or the problem is with the Liao people he abducted. Another possibility is that someone deliberately framed my Zeng family with the help of Yu Baosi! But what's the use of asking this now? "Zeng Sheng stood up after speaking.Looking around at the brothers, he said: "The most urgent thing is to solve the current predicament. We have become the target of public criticism. If we don't do anything, the future will never be better!"

Although everyone complained, they felt a little bit reluctant to spit out the fat in their mouths at this time, Zeng Mi said dissatisfied: "What's the end? It was rumored that the jade seal was stolen by Wang Lun of Liangshan, isn't he as stable as Mount Tai? I haven't seen anyone raising troops to snatch it!"

"Rise up troops to attack him? Who in the Jianghu has this strength now! Last year, Liangshan broke through the Daming Mansion, and even broke through the states to pursue troops. No less than [-] to [-] officers and soldiers died in his hands! There are also [-] troops from the imperial court who conquered Yuzhou a few years ago. He, Liu Zhizhou of our Lingzhou was the commander, what happened? The whole army was wiped out, two of his four generals were killed and two surrendered! You say it’s all right now, who would dare to touch him? It’s just Yu Baosi who is stupefied. Besides, his terrain is peculiar, an isolated island in a pond of [-] li, not to mention thousands of troops, even spies would have a hard time sneaking into his cottage! It’s not like our place is a market, with wind leaking everywhere, hard to guard against !"

Zeng Sheng used his tongue to fight against the group of brothers, and his aura was not weak at all, which is also a characteristic of his clan. Not to mention between brothers, even between father and son, monarch and ministers, the sense of etiquette is also very weak.Because of this, in the future, Jin Taizong, the lord of a country, once "supported" from the dragon chair by the officials, beat him up, then helped him back to the dragon chair, and continued to discuss matters.

"Then tell me, how do we do this? Are we acting like idiots, wasting our work for nothing?" The brothers said in a bad mood when they said they couldn't beat the younger brother.

"I said, hand over Yu Baosi and Yuxi to the Lingzhou government, first wash off the stains on us, and the two masters can explain it clearly, so as not to make them feel bad! Then..." Zeng Sheng said coldly With a smile, he said: "The Lingzhou government will definitely appraise the jade seal before sending it to the court! If the jade seal is a fake at that time, I will be guilty of the four crimes of Yu Bao. This guy either deliberately framed us or was killed by others." Take advantage of it, and when the time comes to track down the culprit, you will definitely vent your anger!"

Hearing this, Elder Zeng had already guessed what his son was thinking, and he couldn't help being very pleased, but Zeng Tu asked stupidly, "What if the jade seal is real?"

"Let's snatch it back secretly! In this way, without anyone noticing, we will pick ourselves out!" Zeng Sheng said flatly.

When he finished speaking, the other four tigers were silent. Elder Zeng laughed loudly and said, "The Zeng family is lucky to have a son like this! You brothers, if you are half as smart as your younger brother, I will Take the old bones and..."

"Old...Master..." An old servant rushed in hastily. Elder Zeng was interrupted by him, frowned, and asked, "Why are you so panicked?"

The old servant wiped the cold sweat from his head and replied: "Teacher Shi has sent news that an army horse has come from the west, the number is unknown, and it seems to be heading for our Zengtou City. He took people to verify it." Yes, I told the master to prepare early!"

"Too much deceit! It is said in the world that when Yuxi was in Liangshanpo, it was calm. When the rumors fell to our village, they dared to recruit teachers to snatch it. It is true that the five tigers of our Zeng family are nothing!" Zeng Suo beat the case and rose road.

"Master is just careful, why do you need to verify? Who else can come from the west, isn't that guy Tian Hu? He has the most spies who come to my village!" Zeng Tu cursed.

"Regardless of whether this military horse is coming for us or not, we must first send Yuxi to Lingzhou. Let's clean it up first! If this group of people really came after Yuxi, they will definitely attack Lingzhou, and then we will go out again Rescuing the imperial court is a great achievement and you can't escape!" Seeing the chaos in the hall, Zeng Sheng suggested.

Elder Zeng nodded, obviously agreeing with his son's opinion, and hurriedly said, "Take Yu Bao up quickly!"

……

Contrary to the melancholy clouds hanging over Zengtou City, the Juyi Hall in Liangshan Po, nearly a thousand miles away, was full of joy and laughter, and Xu Guanzhong was holding a long string of cloth strips sent back by carrier pigeons. He said with a smile: "This guy is a little quick-witted. He knows how to take Yuxi to the government to wash it for nothing. It's a pity, a pity..."

Xiao Jiasui also smiled and said: "If those old scholars in Lingzhou are dazzled for a while, it's okay to identify the jade seal as genuine. If there are really capable people who recognize this thing as fake, Zengtou City's move is undoubtedly because there is no silver 300 taels here. Everyone will think that he deliberately kept the real product and refused to hand it in!"

The two looked at each other after speaking, feeling a little emotional in their hearts, they couldn't figure out how Wang Lun knew about the relationship between Yu Baosi, Dong Ping and Zeng Nong.

Seeing that the two military advisers were in a good mood, Wang Lun shook his head and smiled, and said, "Brother Zhu Gui has received news that Tian Hu and Wang Qing have both made moves at this time. Our news from Jiangnan is weaker, so Fang La probably won't be silent. , this time old man Zeng won't be able to calm down!"

Even the Zeng family knew that they were not of my race, so their hearts must be different. How could Wang Lun show mercy to this group of people, but it is a pity that Shi Wengong, a fierce general who is used to accounting, Wang Lun can only hope to continue. The latent time shift can bring you some good news.

"Wang Qing is trying to save face. Back then when it was rumored that Yuxi was in our cottage, he could just sit still!" Zhu Wu said with a smile.

"I saw the result the year before last, and he can't accept it! Besides, we all work together to make money together, and if we fight with us, he doesn't have that much advantage, right?" Xiao Jiasui smiled, and suddenly remembered the situation at that time. If it weren't for the fight, he It may not be possible to go to Liangshan, and I can't help but feel a little embarrassed at the moment.

Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, only to hear Wang Lun say: "The next family has already knocked themselves out, let's not worry about it for them, and see if Brother Jin's craftsmanship can surpass those old pedants in Lingzhou!"

Everyone looked at Jin Dajian when they heard about it, and saw the jade-arm craftsman blushing, "I never thought that the jade seal that my younger brother imitated for the first time would fall into the hands of this group of Jurchens. If I knew it, I wouldn't have to burn oil like that to light the lamp!"

"Zengtou City is really nothing, but the Jurchen rising up in the north, I'm afraid it will be our strong enemy in the future!" Although the news sent back by Shi Qian was just a few words, it is not difficult to feel it given Wang Lun's familiarity with history. The threat posed by the rise of this formidable enemy.

"I'm afraid there is not much time left for us to develop calmly!" Wang Lun felt something in his heart, and blurted out, "The affairs of Koryo are about to be put on the agenda!"

The three military advisers all nodded their heads in agreement. They didn't want this incident to accidentally bring out a shocking news. Who knew that there was such a force in a remote place that wiped out the 70 troops of the Liao Kingdom with less than [-] troops. Changing to the current Liang Shanbo, it may not be able to do it, so everyone understands the eagerness in Wang Lun's words.

But there are good things ahead, at least the matter of Yuxi has finally come to an end, no matter how chaotic Zengtou City is at this time, it has nothing to do with Liang Shanbo.Just as Wang Lun set his sights on the Korean Peninsula, an incident that happened suddenly disrupted his plan.
