"Good!"
Chong Lin nodded and reported the current situation at Mount Liangshan to Xiao Chen." There are many brothers on Liangshan. They were once officials in the imperial court, good generals, and high-ranking officials. They all yearned for a life in the imperial court…"
Then, Lin Chong told Xiao Chen about the situation in Liangshan in detail.
After listening to Chong Lin's story, Xiao Chen's lips curled up slightly and he said with a smile,""Thus, when they heard the imperial court's edict, they were immediately moved.”
Chong Lin and the others remained silent, their expressions grave.
Obviously, Xiao Chen's words had spoken the thoughts of those who wanted to be pacified.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Xiao Chen did not stop talking. He smiled faintly and said,"This is too childish. Once a barrier appears, how can it be so easy to repair? If they are really pacified, they will only end up in a sad and lamentable state.”
Xiao Chen, who was familiar with the Water Margins, was very clear about the fate of those brave men who accepted Zhao An.
Everyone remained silent and listened to Xiao Chen's story in silence.
"In my opinion, the Imperial Court has a profound purpose for granting you peace.”
Under everyone's attention, Xiao Chen rang the bell and said,"If nothing goes wrong, if you accept the imperial edict, you will only become a sword in the hands of the imperial court to deal with those like you, causing you to kill each other.”
Lu Junyi frowned and understood Xiao Chen's meaning. He said with fear,"Immortal, according to what you're saying, aren't we just cannon fodder for the Imperial Court? Became a sacrifice for them to charge into the enemy's line of battle?”
"Cannon fodder? Sacrifice?"
Xiao Chen smiled meaningfully at Lu Junyi's words and said,""You're wrong. In my opinion, in the eyes of the Imperial Court, you can't even be compared to cannon fodder or sacrifices.”
Lu Junyi and the others were shocked. They were puzzled by Xiao Chen's words and thought that Xiao Chen was exaggerating.
Seeing the expressions of Lu Junyi and the others, Xiao Chen immediately guessed their thoughts and said,"Think about it. Since the imperial court will deal with other bandits, how can they tolerate your existence? If that happens, you can imagine your final outcome.”
After Xiao Chen's analysis, Lu Junyi and the others 'expressions trembled. They finally realized the terrifying consequences.
If Xiao Chen's analysis was correct, the imperial court's edict to them this time was clearly a huge trap.
If they accepted the imperial edict, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"Immortal…Immortal, what should we do now?”
Understanding the seriousness of the situation, Chong Lin quickly asked Xiao Chen for instructions, hoping that Xiao Chen could point out a way.
Hearing Lin Chong's question, the others were all nervous, waiting for Xiao Chen's guidance.
Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Chen did not answer directly. He slowly stood up and said,""Take me to see the others and let me see what they think.”
"Alright, I'll bring you there now."
Hearing Xiao Chen's instructions, Chong Lin immediately led the way, not thinking too much about Xiao Chen's intentions.
When the others saw Xiao Chen's actions, they also did not express any opinions and followed behind Xiao Chen silently.
Under Chong Lin's lead, Xiao Chen came to another hall and saw the people who were holding a banquet and chatting.
Sitting at the top of the hall were two middle-aged men dressed in official clothes, who put on an arrogant and hypocritical posture.
If one observed carefully, one could see that their gazes were filled with disdain, disdain, and coldness when they looked at Song Jiang and the others.
"Hey!"
Seeing the actions of these two people, Xiao Chen sighed and felt some sympathy for Song Jiang and the others.
Song Jiang and the others 'current actions could be described as being sold and even helping others count money.
"Heroes, have you thought it through?”
An official sitting at the top of the hall looked at Lin Chong and the others with a faint smile, as if he had them under his wing.
Chong Lin and the rest snorted coldly in response to this person's question and turned their heads to the side.
Seeing the actions of Lin Chong's group, a short, dark-faced middle-aged man slowly stood up and said,"Brothers, Senior Grand Tutor Cai has come with the Emperor's decree to give me a chance to serve the Imperial Court. Do you really want to be bandits for the rest of your lives?”
A man holding a feather fan nodded at Song Jiang and began to persuade everyone,"Brothers, have you never thought that we have already become bandits, and our descendants will follow suit?”
Looking at the two people who were talking, Xiao Chen immediately recognized their identities. They were Song Jiang and Wu Yong.
These two people were the two who advocated for peace the most. Most of the people in Liangshan were willing to accept peace because of them.
Hearing Song Jiang and Wu Yong's words, Chong Lin and the others 'expressions changed. They seemed to have been persuaded.
"I don't agree with what you said!"
Seeing the reaction of Lin Chong and the others, Xiao Chen shook his head with a faint smile and gave a different opinion. He then said,"Everyone is originally a person of right and wrong. Now that we've come to the Liangshan River, we didn't hesitate to get rid of right and wrong. Why should we get involved in right and wrong?”
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone nodded and recalled their past experiences.
Xiao Chen didn't care about everyone's reaction. He said unhurriedly,"Have you ever thought that by accepting the imperial court's edict, you are under the control of the imperial court's laws?”
Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, many people's expressions changed drastically, and they could not help but reveal a hesitant expression.
Some of them were lawless and used to doing whatever they wanted.
For example, Li Kui, Wang Ying, Zhang Qing, and the others either killed people like flies, were lecherous, or ran human flesh shops.
How could people like them be bound by laws? Wasn't this equivalent to locking monkeys in cages?
Seeing that Xiao Chen's words made Li Kui and the others hesitate, Wu Yong narrowed his eyes and said coldly,"Who are you? I don't think I've seen you before. Could it be that you have ulterior motives for provoking me like this?”
Hearing Wu Yong's words, Xiao Chen's lips curled into a smile. He was very disdainful of Wu Yong in his heart.
Based on Xiao Chen's understanding, half of the people on Liangshan had been tricked or tricked into going up the mountain by him.
This kind of person was too scheming and hypocritical. Xiao Chen did not like him.
Under Wu Yong's questioning, Xiao Chen's face was indifferent as he said,""You are not qualified to know who I am.”
