Chapter 131 Chen Xizhen: I want to be Jiang Taigong

Am I really unworthy?

Yun Tianbiao blinked his eyes, still unable to believe that he was beheaded by a single blow.

Just when this man was about to die, no one noticed that there was a sudden flash of light in the sky. It was the star of general in Yun Tianbiao's destiny that flashed three times.

It’s like commemorating a withering!
The star belonging to Wu Song glowed a little bit, imperceptibly to the naked eye.

"The thief is dead. If you have any connection with him, you will have to have two golden seals branded on your face and be sent to the border."

Wu Song held his head up, looking extremely ferocious. As his eyes swept over them, everyone lowered their heads, and most of them even knelt down.

"Your Excellency, you are wrongly accused! We only had a few drinks with this thief, and he tried to win us over. We didn't help him do anything illegal!"

"What's the point of winning you over?" Wu Song shouted.

"I really didn't do anything..."

"Injustice!"

"What can you not ask for under Sanmu? When you get to the prison, it will be determined whether you have strong backbones. If you don't speak up quickly now, you will suffer in the future."

"Sir! Every time this thief gets drunk he says he wants to do something big. We thought he was just talking nonsense. Now think about it, he is planning a rebellion!" Someone was startled and started to speak along the lines of Wu Song's words.

"Oh! It turned out to be treason... Who can testify?"

"We can all testify to this."

Anyway, Yun Tianbiao is already dead, and his detached head can't speak for himself, so they can just say whatever they want.

Dongping Prefecture solved the case of Yun Tianbiao robbing the county magistrate's gold and silver, and also uncovered a case of treason, which we will not mention for now.

Soon, the imperial court raided Fengyun Manor, and the news of Yun Tianbiao's death also spread.

"My son is dead!"

"My son is dead!"

Upon hearing the news, the owner of Fengyun Manor, Yun Wei, burst into tears, and his grandson Yun Long cried so hard that he almost fainted.

In just half a month, Zhuangzi's property was confiscated by the court, and Renren was also framed by the court and was gone.

"Ugh!"

Chen Xizhen sighed and advised: "Grandpa Yun, the dead cannot be resurrected, so the living should take care of their bodies! Although I have never met Brother Tianbiao, we are very good friends. I, Chen Xizhen, must avenge Brother Tianbiao."

"Dad, let's go to Yanggu County to avenge Father Yunlong and kill those corrupt officials." Chen Liqing gritted her teeth, her face firm.

Chen Xizhen was a hypocritical man. How could he risk his life for someone he had never met? So he said, "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. But we dare not rashly kill corrupt officials. Yun Taigong and his whole family need our protection. If the court finds them, they will have to send troops to arrest them. Alas! We should find a place to stay first."

"Then will you still go to live with your uncle?" Chen Liqing asked.

Chen Xizhen nodded and said, "Yunlong is engaged to your aunt's third daughter Hui Niang. Now that Yunlong is in trouble, your uncle should help him."

He pinched his fingers again, only to feel that the future was in chaos and he had already lost his direction.

Some people have great ambitions but little talent and want to be like Jiang Taigong. However, in the five thousand years of Chinese history, how many people have the talent of Taigong?

Even if one has some talent, how many people can meet King Wen of Zhou?

A thousand-mile horse often exists, but a bole does not always exist!
What's more, Chen Xizhen is just a man with great ambitions but little talent, which can be seen from "The Outlaws of the Marsh". He keeps saying that he wants to defend his country and protect the people, but in the end he is just like Song Jiang!
That day, Liu Tang came back excitedly: "Brother, Chen Xizhen really showed up at Liu Guang's house in Anle Village, Yanzhi Mountain, which you asked us to monitor."

"Since you have appeared, let's give this wealth to Governor Gao!" It took only a few days from Fengyun Manor to Anle Village, and the government officials came to kill them again.

Chen Xizhen and his group had to start moving again. This time they had nowhere to go, so they could only run up the mountain.

It was not until this moment that he was sure that he had fallen into someone's trap.

They were forced up the mountain step by step.

"Father, the military commander is only a minor master of the art of refining, and the soldiers he leads are just a bunch of scattered sand. My daughter can defeat him with just one charge. Why do we need to run away?"

Chen Liqing couldn't understand why her father seemed like a different person since arriving in Yizhou.

You are not allowed to do this, and you are not allowed to do that.

Just know how to escape!
But this world is so filthy and corrupt, where can we escape to?
Chen Xizhen sighed: "I really don't want to go against the government. If we kill the military commander, we will have no choice but to live in the mountains and become bandits!"

After hearing this, Yun Long, the son of Yun Tian Biao, said angrily: "So what if I become a bandit in the mountains? The imperial court killed my father, I want revenge!"

Beside him, his brother-in-law Liu Guang revealed a resentful look. Although he was dismissed from his post by Gao Feng, he was still a scholar and was doing a good job as a village elder in his hometown. Although he had no power, he had no shortage of money. Who would have known that this unexpected disaster would fall on him less than three days after his brother-in-law came.

Now that he has fled to the mountains, does he want to follow him and become a bandit?

Liu Guang shuddered and thought to himself: I want to be reinstated as an official, how can I join the bandits? This Chen Xi is really a disaster, I am so unlucky to be related to him.

So he found an excuse and took his wife and children to live with relatives that day.

As for Yunlong, the prospective son-in-law, he was determined to go up the mountain and become a bandit to avenge his father, so naturally he had a big quarrel and called off the marriage.

Chen Xizhen looked at his brother-in-law's departing back, then looked at Yuanlong's family who were following him, and thought of the government that was pressing him step by step. For a moment, he felt overwhelmed.

Just a month ago, he was still thinking of being Jiang Taigong!

On the second day after Liu Guang left, Chen Xizhen finally found a place to stay nearby.

Yuanbi Village!
The village leaders, brothers Gou Huan and Gou Ying, had been saved by Chen Xizhen, and they immediately expressed their willingness to give up the position of village leader to him.

How could Chen Xizhen agree? He was still dreaming of being Jiang Taigong!
Even if he doesn't become a bandit, someone will force him to become one.

Yizhou prefect Gao Feng had received official documents from the court long ago, and recently he had received a sum of money from Cao Jie to support the troops, so he was naturally ambitious to accomplish this feat.

If there had not been the official document issued by the Grand Marshal Gao Qiu, 100% of the food and wages provided by Cao Jie would have been embezzled.

If there was no funding for food and wages, but only official documents, Gao Feng would not put his heart into suppressing the bandits. At most, he would just go through the motions to give an explanation to the court and Gao Qiu.

In this era, after embezzling money into one's own pocket, one would still like to use the money to help the imperial court suppress bandits?

What are you thinking?

It is not a big achievement if the suppression is done well. If the suppression fails, you will be the one to be held responsible.

In this case, it would be better not to suppress them, or to divide them into three parts and seven parts to conduct an exercise.

Governor Gao Feng sent troops to attack Yuanbi Village. Chen Xizhen used magic to defeat the powerful enemy, which eventually led to Yizhou falling into banditry.

All of this is under Cao Jie's control.

Don’t you, Chen Xi, really look down on Liangshan?

Now you have become a bandit leader who robs houses and fights against the government. I want to see how your soul and luck will change...
