The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 374 Analyzing the Pros and Cons
After listening to Li Zhu's words, Wang Qing felt that it was very reasonable, so he immediately went to change into brocade clothes and jade belts, brought a team of drummers with him, and went out of the village in a hurry.They received Mu Xu and his party halfway up the mountain, and after meeting each other, Wang Qing personally brought Mu Xu in front, and the group returned to the cottage in a mighty manner.

Compared to Fang La's treacherous and cunning, Wang Qing is much cuter in Mu Xu's eyes. At the clean-up banquet held for Mu Xu, after only three rounds of drinking, Wang Qing cut straight to the point,

"Brother Mu's name, I've heard it all over the past two years, but I don't know why he came to Huaixi suddenly?"

Mu Xu replied with a smile, "Since my brother is so forthright, I have something to say about that brother. I'm passing by Huaixi this time. Apart from paying a special visit to Brother Xian, I also want to talk about the cooperation between the two. thing."

Wang Qing paused his hand with the wine glass, and asked a little strangely, "My brother's words really confuse me. Liangshanbo is far away in Shandong, but my Fangshan is in Huaixi. The distance between the two places is not less than two thousand miles. How can we cooperate? "

Mu Xu waved to the next table, Ruan Xiaoqi hurriedly brought a package of things, after Mu Xu took it, he pushed it in front of Wang Qing, and made a gesture of please see.

Wang Qing didn't understand what it meant, but he opened the package anyway, and saw that the inside was full of snow-white granules. He twisted some up with his hands, put it in his mouth and tasted it, then his eyes lit up, and he looked at Mu Xu and said eagerly, " How much salt does my brother have?"

"As long as Brother Xian can eat, how much you want, how much you have."

"Is this true?" Wang Qingteng stood up suddenly, with an extremely serious expression, for fear that Mu Xu was playing him off.

Mu Xu picked up the wine glass and drank it down, and replied seriously, "A man, if you spit and nail, it must be the truth!"

"Okay, brother, just say a price?"

Seeing that Wang Qing had already taken the bait, Mu Xu looked around and said he got up, "Don't worry, brother, let's have a drink and have fun. As for the other things, how about letting the brothers talk about it?"

Wang Qing was startled at first, and then suddenly realized, "Brother seems to have other plans, no matter, then it's up to you!" Then he told Li Zhu,
"Brother Li came forward for me and talked to the brother from Shandong."

"Yes!" Li Zhu got up and responded, and Mu Xu's side, Zhu Wu, also stood up, punched Mu Xu and Wang Qing, and followed Li Zhu out of the hall.

After the two left, the hall continued to raise cups and cups for a while.It's just that Wang Qing can't drink as much as Mu Xu, and he got a little drunk after a while, talking about his love affair with a prodigal son in Tokyo in the past,

"Brother, let me tell you, I was a big brother in Tokyo back then, Tong Guan, do you know? He is my cheap uncle, and his niece Tong Jiaoxiu insisted on making peace and staying with me. Yes. It's a pity, if her husband-in-law is not Cai You's son, maybe I will really be the son-in-law of the Tong family!"

"Brother Xian is talking about Miss Tong, but is that Tong Jian's daughter?"

Wang Qing was surprised with drunken eyes, "Hey, how did brother know?"

Mu Xu immediately told how he met Tong Jian, and how he bought weapons and armor from him at a high price.

After hearing this, Wang Qing envied, "There are such good things, it makes me want to go."

Mu Xu joked, "That Tong Jian is Brother Xian's cheap father-in-law, if you can't say it, you can give Brother Xian a little cheaper!"

Wang Qing didn't seem to realize that this was a joke, but he really thought about it, and shook his head after a while and said, "No, no, Cai You is Cai Jing's son, and he is favored by Zhao's family. I can't afford to offend him. It’s still over.”

This meal lasted from Xushi to Zishi, and Mu Xu and the others stayed in Fangshanzhai that night.It is worth mentioning that afterward, I learned from Zhu Wu that the negotiation between him and Li Zhu went quite smoothly, so I will wait for Wang Qing to nod tomorrow.When Mu Xu heard this, he finally let go of his heart and waited with peace of mind.

But it was almost noon the next day, when Wang Qing woke up from a hangover, Li Zhu got the news, went to see him in a hurry, and told the truth about the conditions proposed by Zhu Wu.

Wang Qing pondered for a long time after hearing this, and smiled clearly, "In this way, Brother Mu also wants to rebel against Song Dynasty?"

Li Zhu nodded and said, "Although Zhu Wu didn't say it outright, judging from the meaning revealed in his words, the matter is probably inseparable. And I also heard a piece of news that they and their party first I went to see Jiangnan Fangla."

As the so-called colleagues are enemies, both Wang Qing and Fang La are secretly plotting to rebel, so they naturally know each other, but one is in the upper reaches of the river and the other is in the lower reaches of the river.Wang Qing has always been uncomfortable with Fang La, thinking that he is a cult monster who only pretends to be a ghost, and what he does is not a hero's behavior.

Hearing this news at this time, Wang Qing couldn't sit still for a while, he walked around the room a few times, and suddenly said, "No, how could Zhu Wu be so unwise to reveal such an important matter to you?"

Li Zhu was stunned for a moment, and asked in doubt, "Brother, what do you mean, Zhu Wu did it on purpose?"

Wang Qing sneered, "It should be said that it was Mu Xu's intention. He must have reached some kind of agreement with Fang La, and he couldn't trust that monster Fang La, so he changed his mind and turned around to cooperate with me."

"If they want something from me, why don't we talk to them again, I think we can get more benefits!"

Unexpectedly, Wang Qing waved his hand and said, "No, it's up to what you discussed. He asked me for something, so why don't I ask him for it. Liangshanbo is located in Jizhou, Shandong, and runs through the Grand Canal. Mu Xu raises his troops, do you think the Zhao official family and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, who are close at hand, can still sit in the court?"

Li Zhu added, "Then it makes sense. Mu Xu chose to cooperate with Fang La, and he must have understood this truth, so he wanted Fang La to attract the court's attention for him."

The two discussed for more than half an hour, deduced all kinds of situations, and after confirming that there were no omissions, Wang Qing went to see Mu Xu.

This time Wang Qing asked Mu Xu to meet at the back mountain, and the two of them did not bring any entourage, they just enjoyed the scenery on the back mountain path and talked about the situation in the world at the same time.

During the period, if Wang Qing mentioned Fang La unintentionally, he wanted to test Mu Xu's attitude. In Wang Qing's mind, Mu Xu would definitely make a gesture, but who knew that Mu Xu would admit it directly, which was far beyond Wang Qing's opinion. Unexpectedly, he couldn't help sighing,

"I thought the brothers would deny it first, and then reluctantly admit it. Can you tell me the reason for being so happy?"

Mu Xu expressed his opinion, "Brother Xian is a sensible person, why should I hide it and let you see a joke?"

While saying this, Mu Xu took a few steps forward, came to the edge of a cliff, pointed to the distant sky, and said,

"Brother Wang, look at this great river and mountain. It's so magnificent and beautiful. I don't know how many heroes have bowed down! But now that Zhao Song is in power, with our respective strengths, if we want to change the world, I'm afraid it will be as difficult as climbing the sky."

After hearing Mu Xu's words, Wang Qing was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile, "Brother, I'm proud of you. I just want to separate myself from one side, and I will be satisfied to be a king of grass, but I never expected to change the dynasty."

Mu Xu didn't bother to tell the truth from the falsehood, so he said, "Brother said yesterday that you offended Cai Jing and his son. No, you have to add that Yang Jian, after all, the little lady of the Tong family is still his granddaughter. Presumably Brother Xian should know, The importance of the three of them in the Great Song Dynasty Hall, and the position in the hearts of the Zhao officials?"

Wang Qing's complexion changed, but he still nodded honestly.

Mu Xu laughed and said, "Since you know, why are you still so naive? Just take me as an example. If something goes wrong for me, at worst, I can choose to call for peace. But Brother Xian is not the case. You offended Cai Jing and his gang, even if you If you succeed in enlisting security, that is ten deaths and no life."

Accompanied by Mu Xu's words, Wang Qing's face became more and more ugly, but Mu Xu seemed to turn a blind eye to it, but continued to talk,

"To sum up, there are two paths before Brother Wang. You can either stay in this cottage and remain unknown for the rest of your life; or you can go forward bravely and carve out a way to reach the sky. It is up to Brother Wang to decide on his own choice." !"
