Song Jiang's heart stirred.

Have you found out where he usually likes to go?

It's now clear that Dong Ping is lying in wait within the prefectural government.

They were just waiting for the rescue of Huyan Zhuo to back down into their trap.

If we want to rely on normal methods,

They rescued Huyan Zhuo.

It is obviously impossible now.

In that case,

Then we naturally have to find another way.

For example,

Let Murong Yanda give the order.

Huyan Zhuo was taken out of the prefectural dungeon.

They were escorted to Bianliang, the capital of the Eastern Capital.

This would give Song Jiang and his men the opportunity to strike.

"I heard that Murong Yanda recently moved out of the prefectural government office,"

The henchman, having gathered information, replied,

"They moved into his mistress's house in the south of the city."

"A mistress?"

Song Jiang asked in surprise,

Do you know the place?

"The entire Qingzhou knows that Prefect Murong is his lover."

The henchman laughed.

"I guess only that Prefect Murong still thinks this is a secret."

"Heh, hand over the prefectural government to Dong Ping to ambush and rescue Huyan Zhuo's men,"

Song Jiang laughed and said,

"He himself hid in the outer room. This Prefect Murong really has a good idea."

"In that case, let's go and have a talk with this Prefect Murong."

"Clerk, are you saying we should kidnap this Prefect Murong?"

One of the henchmen said excitedly,

"This is the emperor's brother-in-law! How much ransom should we ask for?"

"It would cost at least ten thousand strings of cash, wouldn't it?"

"We still need food; we're almost out of food on the mountain!"

"Then ten thousand strings of cash and one thousand shi of grain?"

"Fool! This is the emperor's brother-in-law! He deserves at least 100,000 strings of cash and 10,000 bushels of grain!"

...

Seeing these lackeys,

They even started fantasizing about how to extort that Prefect Murong.

Song Jiang suddenly felt his head was as big as a bucket.

He suddenly regretted leaving Hua Rong at Liangshan.

otherwise,

With Little Li Guang around,

He wouldn't need to personally lead these lackeys.

"Alright, stop thinking about it."

Song Jiang said irritably,

"This Prefect Murong is the elder brother of the current Imperial Concubine Murong,"

"If you offend him, do you still want to be granted amnesty in the future?"

"We never considered accepting amnesty."

One of the henchmen subconsciously replied,

Then I remembered,

Before us stands the timely rain, Clerk Song.

He desperately wanted to be granted amnesty.

He said it himself.

Isn't it just going against him?

really,

The henchman looked up,

They saw that Song Jiang's face had darkened.

"If you don't accept the amnesty, you'll be a bandit for life!"

Do you want your descendants to all become thieves?

"Your actions will only bring shame to our ancestors and cause suffering to future generations."

.....

Song Jiang lectured his henchmen incessantly about the necessity of accepting the imperial pardon.

Although the henchmen were secretly complaining,

In this day and age,

Even if they were granted amnesty,

I fear that in the future,

Sooner or later, they will be forced to return to their old ways.

But of course, this couldn't be said to Song Jiang.

Everyone could only feign obedience and accept the instruction.

Once Song Jiang had taught him a lesson he was satisfied with,

Only then did one of the henchmen ask,

“Clerk, but you want Murong Yanda to release Huyan Zhuo?”

"If this guy is unwilling, won't we have to turn against him sooner or later?"

"Won't we still offend him by then?"

"fool!"

Song Jiang laughed,

"Who said we were going to find this Prefect Murong? It was clearly Liangshan who went to find him!"

"This, Sir, you mean,"

Some of the henchmen realized what was happening.

"Shall we pretend to be from Liangshan and go find this Prefect Murong?"

"That's right,"

Song Jiang nodded.

"Since Liangshan has already rescued Zhang Qing,"

"Then isn't it perfectly normal for them to go to Murong Yanda again in order to save Huyan Zhuo?"

"But, they're using Liangshan's name without authorization,"

One of the henchmen worriedly said,

"If Liangshan finds out about this, and they become angry,"

"Our Qingfeng Mountain is not..."

"It's such a trivial matter. As long as you don't tell, how would Liangshan know?"

Song Jiang warned,

"If this gets out, it will damage the relationship between Qingfeng Mountain and Liangshan,"

"King Chao will certainly not let those who talk too much get away with it..."

Chapter 857 Disappeared?

Everything was planned and agreed upon.

Song Jiang was afraid that Liangshan would get there first again.

They also rescued Huyan Zhuo.

He then hurriedly ordered his henchmen...

Go and keep an eye on Murong Yanda's outer courtyard.

After confirming that Prefect Murong had indeed entered,

In the evening,

Song Jiang then led about ten henchmen,

We arrived at the south of Qingzhou Prefecture.

Murong Yanda kept his mistresses outside the courtyard.

One of the henchmen was carrying two large bags of sleeping pills.

They sneaked over the wall and slipped into the courtyard.

After pouring all the sleeping potion into the kitchen water tank,

That's when the henchman climbed over the wall again!

An hour later,

It got completely dark.

And throughout the entire courtyard

It was also completely silent.

Most people were affected by the sleeping potion in the kitchen.

They had all fallen into a deep sleep.

A nimble henchman quickly scaled the wall and entered.

Then they opened the back door of the courtyard from the inside.

"First, find that Prefect Murong, and also find out where his mistress is!"

After entering the courtyard,

Song Jiang then hurriedly gave the instructions.

The dozen or so henchmen quickly dispersed.

Murong Yanda wasn't very bold.
