Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Ximenqing clasped his fists and said, "Master Zhizhou entrusts him with great trust, how dare I refuse to do my best? I will definitely wipe out Qingfeng Mountain, and bring back the bandit leaders so that Master Zhizhou will give the official punishment."

"Okay!" Murong Yanda nodded, wrote two short messages in hand on the city tower, and handed them to Ximen Qing.

After Ximen Qing received the letter, he took Luan Tingyu down the tower and split up.Seeing that he couldn't help Murong Yanda at this time, Zhao Mingcheng took Li Qingzhao, Qin Hui and his wife away, and went back to Guilaitang.

After everyone left, Murong Yanda immediately arranged for people to go to the death row.

It was another busy night in Qingzhou city.

……

Qin Ming was forced to stay on Qingfeng Mountain by Song Jiang, Hua Rong and others. He had to drink with Song Jiang and the others for a whole day, and fell asleep drunk.

This sleep lasted until the next day's Chenpai, and Qin Ming just woke up from his sleep.

Qin Ming opened his eyes and saw that the sky was bright outside the window, he jumped up hastily, washed up, and hurried down the mountain.

All the heroes on Qingfeng Mountain came to stay with each other and said: "Master, let's leave for breakfast and send him down the mountain."

Qin Ming is an impatient person, he can't wait to go down the mountain.They hurriedly arranged some wine and esophagus to wait, took out their helmets and armor, put them on with Qin Ming, then led the horse and brought the mace, and asked someone to wait at the foot of the mountain.

Song Jiang, Hua Rong and other five heroes all sent Qin Ming down the mountain, bid farewell at the foot of the mountain, and returned Qin Ming's horses and weapons.

Qin Ming got on his horse, held a mace, took advantage of the bright sky, left Qingfeng Mountain, and took the road to Qingzhou City.

"Boss Qin is so impatient! I'm afraid he has no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth!"

Song Jiang's five people saw Qin Ming walking away, they looked at each other and smiled, and followed behind them from a distance.

Qin Ming was defeated and captured, and now hurried back to Qingzhou City to explain to Murong Yanda, the prefect.He rode fast and never stopped on the road.

At the end of Shili Road, just before and after the signboard, I saw smoke and dust from a distance, and no one came or went.When Qin Ming saw it, he felt suspicious in his heart.

Qin Ming rode his horse forward, and when he looked outside the city, it turned out that there were hundreds of old houses, and more than a hundred of them had been burned.Some were burnt to a corner, but some were burned to nothing, leaving only a piece of rubble.On the ground, there are still some damaged weapons and arrows left.

When I was away, did the Qingzhou City come to rebels? Qin Ming was shocked when he saw it.He hurriedly beat the horse under his crotch, ran to the south gate of the city on the rubble field, and yelled at the guards to open the gate.

I saw that the suspension bridge near the city was raised high, and all of them were lined up with sergeants, banners, lumber, and cannon stones, looking heavily guarded.

Qin Ming reined in his horse and shouted: "Put down the suspension bridge on the city, and let me enter the city."

Chapter 1 Ninety

There have been soldiers guarding the city for a long time. Seeing that it was Qin Ming, they beat drums, shouted, and picked up bows and crossbows, but did not open the door.

Qin Ming was furious, and shouted to the soldiers in the city: "I am Chief Qin, you guys don't have eyes! Why don't you let me into the city?"

As soon as Qin Ming finished speaking, Murong Yanda, the prefect of Qingzhou, appeared at the top of the city.

Murong Yanda stood beside the parapet wall on the city wall and shouted loudly: "Rebel! How shameless you are! Last night you led troops to attack the city and burned down many houses, and today you come here again to make money and coax the city gate. The court must never lose money You, how can you act so inhumanely! I have already sent someone to report to the court. When I catch you sooner or later, I will tear you into pieces."

Qin Ming shouted: "Grandpa is on a mission! Qin Ming was captured by the robbers on Qingfeng Mountain yesterday because he lost his horse and went up the mountain. He was trapped on the mountain for a whole day, and he was able to escape today. Why did Qin Ming come to fight last night? City?"

Murong Yanda shouted: "Why don't I recognize your horse, armor, weapon, and helmet! Everyone in the city clearly saw you instigating the red man to kill and set fire, how could you let it go! You lost and were captured How come none of the five hundred soldiers escaped and came back to report? Could it be that you still hope to earn money to open the city gate to take the young and old? Your wife has been killed this morning! If you don’t believe it, let’s see.”

After Murong Yanda finished speaking, the sergeants around him lifted several heads on the city wall with guns and showed Qin Ming.

Those few heads are bloody and have long hair covering their faces, how can they be seen clearly?

But Qin Ming is an impatient person, after listening to Murong Yanda's words, and then looking at the heads, he already preconceived that these heads were his wives and children.

Qin Ming was so angry that his chest was broken, he couldn't explain it, he just screamed bitterly.Riding a horse around the city gate.

"The rebel is still thinking about breaking the city gate! Quickly release the arrow!" Murong Yanda pointed at Qin Ming and shouted.

The soldiers shouted and fired indiscriminately as they ordered, and the crossbow arrows rained down on the city.

A few arrows hit Qin Ming's armor, making a "jingling" sound.Qin Ming had no choice but to wield his mace to push away the incoming arrows. Seeing that it was no use staying in the city, he roared in grief and indignation, and galloped southward on his horse, avoiding it from a distance.

When I passed the old houses outside the city, I saw clusters of wildfires, which were still alive.

Qin Ming returned to his horse and lay on the rubble, eager to find a place to die.After thinking about it for a while, he rode his horse back to the old road and headed towards Qingfeng Mountain.

Qin Ming was heading towards Qingzhou City excitedly, and now he is leaving Qingzhou City in a hurry, his heart is really confused along the way, where can he talk about desolation?

With his mind on his mind, Qin Ming couldn't travel more than ten miles, but he saw a group of horses and horses coming out of the forest in front of him.

First, there were five heroes sitting on five horses. These five people were none other than Song Jiang, Hua Rong, Yan Shun, Wang Ying and Zheng Tianshou from Qingfeng Mountain.There are more than 100 minions following the five leaders.

Seeing that Qin Ming was in a state of distress, and there were still a few arrows hanging from the armor on his back, Song Jiang held back a smile in his heart, leaned over and asked immediately, "Why don't you go back to Qingzhou City, Chief? Why are you riding alone, where do you want to go?" "

When Qin Ming saw Song Jiangdong's question, he said angrily: "I don't know which thief should be killed if the sky is not covered or the land is not covered. Pretend that I went to attack the city, destroyed the houses of the people, killed the good people, and ended up with me." The whole family, I have no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth now! If I find that person, I just smash this mace!"

Song Jiang heard the words calmly, and said to Qin Ming: "The manager calms down. The villain has an insight, it's hard to say here, and please go to the village to report. The manager can go there."

Qin Ming had nowhere to settle down at this time, so he had to follow Song Jiang and the others before returning to Qingfeng Mountain.

Qin Ming was unhappy, and Song Jiang and others didn't try to tease him.I had nothing to say on the road, so I got off my horse early in front of the Qingfeng Mountain Pavilion.

Everyone entered the cottage together.Xiao Luo has arranged for wine and fruit to be served in the Juyi hall.

Song Jiang and other five people invited Qin Ming to the hall together, and after making him sit in the middle, they all knelt down in front of Qin Ming.

Qin Ming saw that the five bandit chiefs from Qingfeng Mountain all came to worship him, so he didn't dare to accept it, so he quickly bowed and knelt down.

Song Jiang said, "Don't blame the manager. Yesterday, because the manager was staying on the mountain, the manager was determined to refuse, but it was Song Jiang who came up with this plan, calling the pawn to look like the manager, but wearing the manager's armor and helmet, riding The horse, with its mace horizontally, went straight to the city of Qingzhou, and ordered the red-headed man to kill; Yanshun and Wang Xiaohu led more than fifty people to help in the battle; they only served as the steward to pick up the old and the young at home. Therefore, killing and setting fire, the chief steward will be killed first. The idea of ​​Lu. Today, everyone specially apologized."

Seeing that Qin Ming had said it, he was furious; he wanted to fight with Song Jiang, but he thought to himself: First, he was trapped by them and treated him with courtesy; second, he was afraid that fighting them would cost his life in vain. .Therefore, I had to accept this breath.

Although Qin Ming also looks rough and majestic, with high martial arts skills, somewhat similar to "Hua Monk" Lu Zhishen, but his performance at this time is much worse than Lu Zhishen.

If Lu Zhishen had listened to what Song Jiang had just said, he would have swung his Zen staff and struck Song Jiang on the head, so he wouldn't care about whether he could outdo everyone in the fight.

A person like Lu Zhishen is a real tough guy who only does things with his heart, regardless of his own safety.

And Qin Ming looks like a tough guy, his wife and children were killed by Song Jiang and others, but he didn't dare to fight because he was afraid of death, he was really a soft bone in essence.

However, it was precisely because Ximenqing knew that Qin Ming was soft-boned that he was able to use his tricks to lure the Qingfengshan group of thieves into the trap.If it were Lu Zhishen, Ximen Qing would not dare to let him go to Qingfeng Mountain.

Qin Ming looked back and forth, and didn't dare to get angry, so he had to say to Song Jiang and the others: "Although your brothers have good intentions to keep Qin Ming, it's just that you made me a little bit cruel and ruined my wife and children's family!"

Seeing that Qin Ming was submissive, Song Jiang, the black guy, replied shamelessly: "When you don't want to die, how can your brother be willing to give up? If there is no wife, Song Jiang just knows that there is a young girl in Huazhi Village, who is very virtuous. Song Jiang is willing to marry, How about preparing the dowry and living with the steward?"

Qin Ming saw that everyone respected and loved each other so much, and Song Jiang and Huarong promised benefits again, so Fang felt relieved and returned to Qingfeng Mountain.

Seeing that Qin Ming joined the group, everyone asked Song Jiang to sit in the middle, Qin Ming, Hua Rong and the three heroes sat in turn, boasting, drinking and having fun, and discussing the matter of attacking Qingfengzhai.

Qin Ming said to Song Jiang and the others: "This is easy, and you don't need to worry about it. Huang Xin is also a subordinate; the two are the martial arts that Qin Ming taught him; Sannai and I have the best life. I will go first tomorrow. Called to open the gate, said in a word, said that he joined the group and surrendered, so he took Hua Zhizhai's treasure family, took Liu Gao's shrew, and avenged his brother, as a gift of admission, how about it?"
