As early as the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Huang Wenbing had already brought gifts to greet Sun Tu for the New Year. Since he came again, it meant that there must be something else important. This made Sun Tu feel a little hesitant. After all, he had just coaxed Ya'er. , leaving her alone at this time is really unreasonable.
Fortunately, Ya'er is a person who understands the general situation after all. Seeing him in trouble, she smiled and said: "Since Third Brother has something serious to do, go ahead. As long as Ya'er knows that you have me in your heart, that's enough." Sun Tu was very moved. He shook her soft little hand, then stood up and said: "Don't worry, the third brother will definitely keep what he promised you."
Soon, Huang Wenbing was led to the study room in the backyard and saw Sun Tu who was looking at him with a smile. He quickly stepped forward to greet him: "I have seen the team training in my humble position." Ever since Sun Tu took care of the prison camp He has been working diligently since he was left in charge, and his title has also changed, showing that he is Sun Tu's subordinate from time to time.
Sun Tu stepped forward to support him, and after pulling him to sit down, he smiled and said: "Wen Bing, you are not at home with your family in the first month of the year, but why do you come to see me? It shouldn't be a prison city. Is there some trouble in the camp?"
"That's not true." Huang Wenbing waved his hands hurriedly, and then thanked the steward of the Sun family who served him tea. After visiting a few more times, he found that the tea soup served by Sun Tuan Lian was much simpler than other places. He just soaked the tea leaves in water, but it still had a different taste.
After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, Huang Wenbing plucked up his courage and looked at Sun Tu said: "Actually, I have always wanted to talk to the group about something I wanted to say in detail, but I couldn't find the opportunity. I don't know if I should say it..."
Seeing his embarrassment, Sun Tu laughed again: "I'm not a dim-witted person who can't hear good words. Even if what you say doesn't agree with me, I won't punish you. If you have anything to say, just say it. That’s it.”
"That humble position is very presumptuous." Huang Wenbing sat upright and said seriously: "Actually, humble position has always had some opinions on the fact that Tuan Lian you have close contacts with Song Jiang and others, and I feel that this may be a big obstacle to Tuan Lian's future. .”
"Oh, how can you say this?" Sun Tu really didn't expect that the other party actually had a prejudice against Song Jiang.
"Although Song Jiang was a court official in the past, he is now a thief and a prisoner, and he has a good reputation in the world. I heard that he also has a deep friendship with Chao Gai, who robbed the birthday card half a year ago... It's fine if the court doesn't investigate this kind of people, but once someone notices him, I'm afraid he will be severely punished. By then, you will be implicated by him even in regiment training. Moreover, now I am Cai, the governor of Jiangzhou. Son of the Prime Minister, if he hears something, he will definitely become suspicious of you, Tuan Lian." Huang Wenbing frowned and expressed all his concerns.
Sun Tu was stunned when he heard this. To be honest, he really hadn't thought about it so deeply. Now after being reminded by the other party, I realized that there was something wrong with me deliberately making friends with Song Jiang. After all, he was influenced by the story of Water Margin and always put his stance on Song Jiang's side, but he forgot that he was still a court official, so he was naturally against them.
Huang Wenbing saw that Sun Tu had listened, so he continued: "There are also Zhang Shun and others. Even if they hide the matter very deeply, the activities of his brother Zhang Heng in robbing and killing people on the Xunyang River these days are still Something else
Passed. Now that you are so good with them in the group training, how will you deal with them in the future? So I thought it would be better to draw a clear line with them. "As he said that, he stood up again solemnly, bowed his hands and said, "I hope the group training can get out in time to avoid making mistakes. "
The expression on Sun Tu's face changed several times. Although he hesitated in his heart, he had to admit that the other party was right. He is an official of the imperial court, and Song Jiang and others will eventually become thieves and bandits. How can officials and thieves truly become conscientious friends
As I thought before, everyone has his own ambitions. Zhang Shun and the others have no intention of contributing to the court and will eventually become a member of the Liangshan Bandits. However, their ambition is obviously not to die with them, so why not be with them? How about communication
For a moment, Sun Tu even felt a sense of enlightenment. After a period of silence, he stood up and came to Huang Wenbing, pushed him back into his seat, and then clasped his fists and said, "Brother Huang again." You see things more clearly, and Sun Tu has learned a lesson. From this point of view, what I did before was indeed inappropriate, and I should draw a clear line with them in the future... "
"You are a wise man in the group training. You can feel relieved when you are in such a humble position." Huang Wenbing was very happy to see that he not only did not get angry but was doing good things, and at the same time he felt greatly relieved. But at this moment, Sun Tu saw some problems and stared at him thoughtfully: "In fact, it wouldn't be too late for you to advise me on this matter after the new year. Why did you choose today?" Suddenly came to the door, do you know what will happen?"
Huang Wenbing didn't expect Sun Tu to be so sharp, so he was stunned for a moment, which was regarded as acquiescence. After a moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "As expected, the team leader has a sharp gaze, and I can't hide anything from you. Yes, originally, Beizhi planned to make further remarks after the Lantern Festival, but something happened just now, which made Beizhi dare not do anything again. Delay, otherwise variables may arise.”
"What's going on?" Sun Tu's heart moved, and he had vaguely guessed what he was referring to.
"Just today at noon, I went to have a drink with a few friends in Xunyang Tower, and I saw two clearly contradictory poems on the wall of that private room... I really didn't expect that someone would be so bold. Inscribe these anti-poems on the walls of restaurants where people are constantly coming and going." As he said that, Huang Wenbing took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over.
Sun Tu hurriedly took it and opened it, his face darkened. Even though he already knew what was written on it, he still felt frightened after seeing it with his own eyes: "I have been studying classics and history since childhood, and I have a good plan when I grow up. Just like a tiger lying on a barren hill, its minions are lurking to endure." Unfortunately, tattoos on both cheeks would be worthy of being in Jiangzhou. If he had to avenge his grievances in his youth, his blood would be stained at the mouth of the Xunyang River."
In the past, when he read Water Margin, he didn't think this poem was very powerful, but now that he read it, it gave him a chill down his back. After all, Sun Tu is now very clear about some of the taboos of the Song Dynasty court. Any official who puts such clearly contradictory verses in front of him will be investigated to the end!
The following four lines of the poem made him even more nervous: "My heart is in Shandong and my body is in Wu, and the floating rivers and seas are moaning. If he always has a high ambition, he dares to laugh at Huang Chao for not being his husband."
If the previous song Xijiang Yue could still be interpreted as a desire for revenge rather than an intention to rebel, then these four sentences completely clarify the intention of rebellion. After all, the whole world knows what Huang Chao is written in it. No matter who dares to claim to be Huang Chao,
Those are rebels who do not give any discount, and they are the targets of strict arrest by the court.
Seeing that Sun Tu's breathing was a little heavy, Huang Wenbing sighed again: "I dare not hide it from the group practice. The words "Yuncheng Song Jiang" were written below these two poems. Not only was he seen by the waiter in the building with this inscription, He rebelled against poetry and even left his name in person. How could the government tolerate such a traitor? I hope Tuan Lian can immediately sever ties with him, or even report his treasonous intentions to the prefect before the matter has happened. …”
Sun Tu fell into a brief silence. He really didn't expect that after going around in circles for a long time, it was Huang Wenbing who exposed Song Jiang's treason. The only difference was that this time he reported the matter to himself instead of directly Went to see Cai Jiu.
This made him feel that there was still room for change. Although he had made up his mind to draw a clear line with Song Jiang and others, he did not want to be a villain who reported on him, and even wanted to help him cover up. After all, the concept of right and wrong established over many years cannot be completely reversed in just a few moments.
So after pondering, he looked at Huang Wenbing again: "Mr. Huang really thinks that Song Jiang has the ability to rebel? Can a guy who was born as a swordsman and pen official and only knows a few tricks and tricks really be able to cause trouble?"
"this… "
"In my opinion, it is just nonsense that he uttered on the spur of the moment when he was drunk because of his own experiences. It would be inappropriate to convict him because of these two poems. If it were really spread, what would happen to the world? What will people think of me, Sun Tu? And you also said that Song Jiang has a good reputation in the world. If I really report him, there will be endless troubles."
Huang Wenbing hesitated when he said this. After all, he is very different now from the one in the Water Margin story. At that time, he had no chance of getting ahead, so he dared to give it a try whenever he had the chance. But now that he has climbed the big tree of Sun Tu, he no longer needs to take such a big risk.
After a long while, Huang Wenbing looked at Sun Tu and said: "Then practicing according to Sun Tuan means..."
"I think this is an opportunity to talk to Song Jiang and prevent him from blaming me for this. We simply helped him cover up the matter this time. After all, this is just It's just a drunken complaint from a poor prisoner, so why bother alarming the prefect?" Sun Tu said and stood up: "Come on, let's go to Xunyang Tower and try to erase those poems. ." Maybe in this way, I can really change the direction of Song Jiang's life. As long as he is not rescued from Liangshan because of this accident, he might just be a prisoner in Jiangzhou forever.
Some people may want to ask, since he knew there would be such a change, why didn't Sun Tu remind Song Jiang earlier
This was a bit embarrassing for Sun Tu. After all, it was impossible for him to tell Song Jiang what would happen to him in the future like a magician and persuade him not to write any anti-poems, otherwise others would treat him as a madman.
After a slight hesitation, Huang Wenbing finally chose to obey Sun Tu's wishes. After all, he was now his subordinate, and this strategy didn't sound bad at all.
At that moment, the two of them hurried out one after another, jumped on their horses, and hurried towards Xunyang Tower...
