Chapter 61: Ruthlessly Hitting an Old Face

  "Oh, nothing much, just some mountain bandits who launched a sneak attack at night and were repelled by us."

  "Oh, and there's this too, the Green Wolf Army is still not like a thing. " Liang Chunqiu observed the expression, Liang Shan's words seemed to have an unspoken meaning, just thinking about it, saw the wine liquid in the cup shaking, then jumped up all at once. Liang Chunqiu suddenly changed color, cavalry, a large number of cavalry, and strictly trained cavalry with uniform pace were rushing towards Liangjia Village.

  Liáng Shān sprang to his feet, shouting loudly: "Wú Tǔ! Wú Huǒ!" As he spoke, he strode out in big steps. Liáng Chūn Qiú and the two elders exchanged glances, stood up, and also wanted to follow him out. Chen Sì Niáng stood up, calm and composed, saying: "Don't be alarmed, my husband will be back soon."

  Chen Si Niang said this, and Liang Chun Qiu and the two elders didn't dare to go out. Although Chen Si Niang was a concubine, she had been in charge of everything in Liangjiazhuang for some time, and she had a great deal of say in the matter of the merchant team selling salt and iron.

  But Liang Chunqiu's eyelids started to twitch, his mind was restless, and soon he heard the sound of footsteps approaching from afar, with over a dozen people "fuming with rage" walking towards him.

  Who is it? Liang Chunqiu took a sip of wine and glanced at Second Elder.

  Before long, the courtyard gate opened and people swarmed in. Liang Chunqiu stood up again and suddenly saw Ma Mingyuan, his heart startled, he took a step forward and hastily went out to greet him. The Second Elder also saw him and hurriedly followed him out.

  Ma Mingyuan glanced at Liang Chunqiu and said coldly, "Liang is also here."

  Li Chunchun's back began to sweat, and he felt that something big had happened.

  Ma Mingyuan stormed into the main room, sat down in the master's seat, and with a flick of his whip, said: "Liangshan Bo, you're here, that's good. The young master and Liu Daren were killed by mountain bandits on your watch, how are you going to explain this?" Ma Mingyuan's face turned dark purple, his lips trembling with rage.

  Li Chunjia felt as if a thunderbolt had struck on a clear day, and she was stunned.

  What?! The Crown Prince and Lord Liu died at Liangjiazhuang. Liang Chunqiu's eyes widened in shock, and the two elders' bodies trembled with fear.

  The Crown Prince Nakaoba Dongwang's most beloved son, followed Liu Daren this time to play and have fun with the younger sister. The whole Xinye County knows that these two people died, which is a big deal in heaven. The entire Xinye, Majiabao and Shierliangwan will all tremble under the thunderous power.

  "Magistrate, sir, this is a terrible injustice. The young master left Liang Family Village and did not expect the mountain bandits to suddenly appear and kill them." Liang Shan immediately cried out in grievance.

  "I will investigate this matter, and even if it's as you said, your Liang family village will have to bear the greatest responsibility."

  Li Shang smiled and said, "What does this have to do with us? Let's not mention anything else, just the two preeminent masters who are protecting the young master. Not one of our people in Liangshan Village is a match for them. If we send someone to protect him, won't that just be adding trouble?"

  "Bang!" Ma Mingyuan slammed his hand on the table, leaving a faint handprint. "Liang Shanbo, stop your sophistry! This time, no matter how eloquent you are, you can't escape responsibility. If you listen to me, I'll take you to Jingzhou right now to confess your crimes. Whether you should be killed or executed will be up to Emperor Ba Dong."

  "This is the doing of the Green Wolf Army, what does it have to do with me? Nor do I know who compromised with the thieves back then, now raising a tiger and inviting calamity?"

  Ma Mingyuan's entire face immediately distorted.

  The two elders could no longer bear it and shouted: "Liáng Shān Bó, how dare you speak to the county magistrate like that?"

  The two elders instantly regained their former colors in the ancestral hall towards Liangshan. Liang Chunqiu's forehead was sweating fine beads, and when the two elders spoke, he couldn't hesitate either.

  This time, I originally came to make amends with the Liang family and get in on their salt and iron business. But who would have thought that we'd leave without checking the almanac? The young master and Liu Gongzi died suddenly, and Liangshan Bo can't shake off his connection to it. When Liang Chunqiu thinks of Ma Mingyuan's chilly gaze as he entered, things are bad - he won't think they've been in cahoots with the Liang family all along, will he? As soon as this thought occurs to him, Liang Chunqiu hastily says: "Liangshan Bo, you can't talk like that."

  "Hmm, Liangshan took a look at Liang Chunqiu and the two elders, thinking that these two were shameless, but didn't expect them to be so shameless. Their ability to change their stance with the wind is truly impressive."

  "Am I wrong? County Master, isn't it you who has brought this calamity upon yourself by harboring thieves?"

  "Rebel! Rebel! You fatherless and lordless thing!" Ma Mingyuan slammed the table and shouted, suddenly unable to speak. Ma Mingyuan's hands were not weak, but he was pinched on the throat by Liangshan, his eyes bulging out.

  Wei Dao'er was right next to him, his shoulder shook, the knife came out, and his entire face was calm without any anger. The demeanor of a master swordsman was fully displayed. But Liang Shan's other hand stretched out, shook, and disappeared. When he looked again, it had already been imprinted on Wei Dao'er's chest. This famous high-ranking master of the Twelve Array Formation immediately didn't move anymore.

  "Slap! Slap!" Liangshan withdrew his hand and directly gave Ma Mingyuan two slaps, that elegant and refined face immediately swelled up like a pig's.

  It was too fast, and Liang Chunqiu and the two elders were stunned before they could react.

  "Ma Mingyuan, do you know where your son Ma Wencai is now?"

  Mentioning his son Ma Wenchang, Ma Mingyuan seemed to have been injected with chicken blood and shouted loudly: "My son is in the Holy Sword Hall! My son is in the Holy Sword Hall!"

  "I'm also at Holy Sword Hall!"

  "What? Didn't you go abroad for further study?" Ma Mingyuan's eyes widened in surprise.

  "I'm now an outer disciple of the Holy Sword Hall, and I'm really sorry to say that your son is just a small errand boy, and he's currently listening to my orders. If I tell him to go east, he doesn't dare go west."

  "Impossible! Impossible!" Ma Mingyuan's eyes were dull and lifeless.

  "Old thing! If you hadn't whispered in Liu Ziming's ear, would he have come to Liangjiazhuang?"

  "No! No! It wasn't me who said it." Ma Mingyuan was really scared.

  "You're the great King of Ba Dong, yet you can't even find out the reason behind this matter? Old man, just wait to go home and face your death!"

  Ma Mingyuan's body began to shake violently, he had never regretted this moment.

  Ma Mingyuan resented Liangshan, resented the Liang family village. His most proud son became neither human nor ghost, and more importantly, how could he let others snore under his bed?

  If Liu Ziming had slept with Chen Si Niang, it would have triggered a strong backlash from the Liang family, and when the time came, they would have been crushed by the army as rebels, and the Liang family would have fallen into the hands of the Ma family. Now this whole series of plots has turned to nothing, not only that, but the fate of destroying the house and the village will fall on his own head.

  Liang Chunqiu and the two elders had already begun to tremble with fear. They had never thought that the situation would take such a drastic turn for the worse.

  Liáng Shān and Liáng Jiā Zhuāng have stirred up a huge trouble, Liáng Chūn Qiū and the two elders were like being drenched in a basin of cold water on a summer day, their thoughts of getting rich were extinguished, they quickly distanced themselves from Mǎ Míng Yuǎn's face, but didn't expect Liáng Shān Bó to be so violently lawless, completely disregarding the Black Armor Army outside the village, and directly taking action.

  What to do? Liang Chunqiu and the two elders stared at each other in dismay, thinking that they had become petty people in an instant.

  Liáng Shān's hand loosened, and he adjusted Mǎ Míng Yuǎn's sleeve, saying: "Marshal Mǎ, the bandits' power is great, and they have the secret support of Xī Qín. The young master died a terrible death, it pains my heart deeply. Xīnyě County and Mǎjiā Bǎo will swear to avenge the young master's death, isn't that right?"

  Ma Mingyuan nodded and said, "Right! Right!"

  Currently, the situation can only be pushed onto the Green Wolf Army, and in fact, it was Qin Lang and his men who did the killing.
