    Tokyo city on New Year's Eve is one of the most lively places in the world.

    Song Jiang was walking alone on the streets of this bustling city, but his heart was full of confusion.

    It is said that he should be happy. It is said that "a man has fulfilled his ambition in life."  From a young official in Yuncheng who never got ahead, to being dyed in the green forest, and finally getting this red official uniform, he finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish to honor his ancestors.

    He also thought that he should be happy.  But he suddenly discovered that when he got what Chao Si had dreamed of all night, his heart was not as ecstatic as he had imagined, but instead felt an indescribable loneliness.

    During the Spring Festival, the whole family is reunited, but unfortunately Song Jiang has nowhere to go.  His biological brother Song Qing was his scapegoat in Erlong Mountain. The old father didn't survive long before he passed away. He never had the chance to see the beautiful things his son had promised come true all day long.

    Now, in this world, there is no more direct relatives, only Song Jiang is left alone.  Live stubbornly.

    Although he still has brothers, alas, brothers Song Jiang shook his head and smiled bitterly. The brothers who couldn't stop complaining when they met were the main reason why Song Jiang had no intention of living a stable life in the military camp.  As soon as these people meet each other, they will inevitably complain about the injustice of the court.  They all say that for all the great achievements gained by enduring humiliation and hardship, in the end they only hear the sound of the stairs and no one comes down.  At this time, Song Jiang was the only one in the entire army who had been given the rank of rank five ranger general (no less than a non-leadership position at the deputy department level in later generations), but he didn't even have an actual assignment. He waited until he went to the Privy Council to ask those who  The adults actually all spoke in an official tone, saying that they were celebrating the New Year now and that everything would be discussed after the New Year.

    "Okay, just wait, as long as the court is fair."  If it's too late, it'll be too late!  It's a shame that the imperial court is not what they say it is.  Damn, Wang Qing, who came here just a few days ago, is now a dignified and upright fifth-rank imperial official. He will be leaving Zhihuazhou in the next year to help with matters.

    Civil officials!  He's actually a fucking civil servant!

    It makes me angry when I think about it. A little ruffian who used to hang out on the streets of Kaifeng Prefecture, who even said was incoherent, actually became the governor of a state in the blink of an eye!  ?  Why, why should he be as famous as Wang Lun and Tian Hu?  Or is it because he relies on women to get close to Tong Guan?  But the brothers are not bad at all. Don¡¯t they all say that Brother Gongming is on the line of Cai Jing and Cai Xianggong?  ?

    Firecrackers that rise into the sky from time to time release bright fireworks, making this New Year's Eve warm and romantic.  Song Jiang's vision suddenly blurred.  There was some bitter and unfamiliar liquid in his eyes.  With mixed feelings, he turned into a time-honored antique calligraphy and painting shop that was still closed, and pretended to pick out calligraphy and paintings.

    The Chinese New Year is a good time for official relationships to connect.  Most of the people who went out to buy calligraphy and paintings on New Year's Eve were officials from other places who came to Beijing to make offerings. When the clerk saw Song Jiang in his red official uniform, he thought that he might be another little bureaucrat who came up to work.  Get your own goods.

    Song Jiang did not choose carefully, and it was impossible to be careful with his methods.  Comparing the gold and silver on his body, he hastily bought an expensive ancient painting, handed over the gold, packed it up and left.

    People have things on their mind.  The pace is hasty, and the pace is haste, and the distance is short.  At this time, Song Jiang came to a low-key and luxurious house and asked passers-by.  After confirming that it was the benefactor's residence in Tokyo, he stepped forward and gently knocked on the door. It didn't take long.  A man who was full of words came out and saw the official uniform on Song Jiang's body. He recognized it as the clothing of a fourth- or fifth-rank official. He squinted and said, "Where can you come to give gifts at such a time? Which yamen do you belong to? What's the value of your eyesight?"  None! My husband didn¡¯t even finish the reunion dinner!¡±

    As the saying goes, the prime minister's doorman is a fourth-grade official, one "grade" higher than himself!  Song Jiang didn't dare to make a mistake, so he accompanied him and said cautiously: "Xiao Ke is Song Jiang of Yuncheng. He is currently leading the Ranger General. He was promoted by Prime Minister En and came here to express his gratitude. I also know that Prime Minister En is busy with work, so I just want to see him.  Just express your gratitude in person!¡±

    "Ringing general?" Menzi sneered in his heart, an unemployed military attache came to act as a leader?  Immediately he said: "My husband-in-law has to go to my wife's house to pay New Year's greetings after dinner, so just keep your things!"

    Song Jiang sighed secretly when he saw this. He couldn't even see the rightful owner of the gift, so how could this happen?  This guy doesn't even know if he can remember his own name.  The benefactor was in a high position and was the son-in-law of the powerful official Cai Jing. He had countless people to fawn over, so he naturally received many gifts. How could he be confused by this guy?

    Song Jiang is a capable person after all. He stretched out his hand to touch his body, and then used the silver bullet offensive that he was good at all his life.  Menzi obviously has seen the world. He had been urging people to leave just now, but now he stopped talking and just waited with a smile.  Unexpectedly, Song Jiang was dumbfounded at this time. It turned out that when he was buying paintings, he only picked the most expensive ones, and he didn't have much money left.The wife had no choice but to hand it to the disciple with both hands and a sullen face. The disciple had sharp eyes. When he saw the ingot of silver, his expression immediately returned to his previous disdain. He thought it was such a big piece, the master thought it was gold!  I heard that this Song Jiang was the leader of the thieves promoted by Xianggong from the green forest. He said that he was willing to sacrifice wealth, ah, bah, how about treating the master like one of those beggars in the world?

    Song Jiang was a man who was lenient on the outside and taboo on the inside. He was only assigned to Jiangzhou, and the people of Jiangzhou did not offend him, so there was a rumor that "the mouth of the Xunyang River is stained with blood."  How could Menzi's contempt at this moment not drive him crazy.  But he was a man who could keep his composure, so he didn't explain anything at the moment, he just bowed his hands politely and left.  The doorman didn't bother to stay for a moment, so he said something unlucky, closed the door and went in.

    At this time, there were a few snowflakes falling from the sky, adding a bit of poetry to this warm New Year's Eve. However, Song Jiang's lonely back in the night seemed out of place with this environment.

    "General Song, General Song! Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

    Song Jiang, who had already reached the corner of the street, heard someone shouting from behind. He turned around and saw that it was the gatekeeper just now. Song Jiang was surprised and stopped to see what he was doing. He saw the gatekeeper catching up and said with an embarrassed look: "General Song,  My husband invites you!"

    Song Jiang felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and the desolate mood that he had been indifferent to and discouraged just now was suddenly abandoned. It seems that the servant is the servant, and Liang Zhongshu still has his own heart!  At that moment, he stopped holding it and urged Menzi to go back. Menzi was chattering all the way, obviously trying to make a good sale. Song Jiang knew that he was just trying to get benefits by currying favor with him. It was not that he was reluctant to give up the benefits, but it was the fault of him.  In fact, there was only some broken silver left, and it would be embarrassing to take it out, so I had to promise: "Song Jiang went out in a hurry today, which is really rude. I will ask my eldest brother Yuxianlou to talk to me another day!"

    The disciple didn¡¯t know whether it was true or not, but he didn¡¯t dare to underestimate Song Jiang anymore. After all, he had just been scolded by his master. At this time, he was much more tolerant than before and said straightly: ¡°Then I¡¯m sorry!¡±

    Seeing that Song Jiang was a friendly person, he naturally flattered him all the way. The disciple led Song Jiang to the study room of his house and then left. At this time, Liang Zhongshu was appreciating the ancient paintings sent by Song Jiang, as if he was waiting for Song Jiang. Song Jiang was very happy when he saw this.  , hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Liang Zhongshu. Liang Zhongshu accepted the ceremony with a smile, and then said: "The old year adds silk threads, and the new year fades away the dark snow. General Song, I have asked you to be wronged!"

    Song Jiang is a half-empty person. He somewhat knows the specific meaning of Liang Zhongshu¡¯s deliberately reversed poem. He immediately said: "Song Jiang only knows how to serve the country and does not know personal gains and losses. Everything depends on the imperial court¡¯s will and kindness!"

    Liang Zhongshu laughed out loud, but changed the subject and said: "This servant is ignorant and neglected General Song. I have already punished him. General Song, please don't take it personally!" Liang Zhongshu was not as aggressive as Cai Jing's eldest son.  When you wake up from the sky, it gives people a feeling of spring breeze.

    Song Jiang was immediately flattered. To be honest, he had only met Liang Zhongshu three or four times, and Cai Jing was even more indifferent. There was only one meeting in total, and it was a small-scale occasion like the first meeting with the saint, so Song Jiang carried the pig's head.  , and did not dare to worship the temple gate randomly, so he had to come to Liang Zhongshu first to cast stones and ask for directions.

    Now that he had been treated favorably by his benefactor, Song Jiang's inferiority complex of a petty official had dissipated a lot. He said a lot of polite words, and finally, using the words Liang Zhongshu himself mentioned, he asked cautiously: "The villain surrendered to the imperial court."  , all based on a sincere heart, absolutely not daring to care about the official position, but Enxiang, the generals who submitted to the court with the villain, how much the villain wants them to experience the grace of the court, I don¡¯t know"

    When Liang Zhongshu heard this, the relief on his face disappeared. He picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip. He said: "General Song, I'm telling you the truth! Because of your heroic deeds, I and the Privy Council people have become famous.  Face. However, although it is difficult, I have finally settled your matter. Just wait and wait for your appointment. Even if you are not actually appointed as the governor of a state, you will still have to be a regimental envoy!"

    Liang Zhongshu's tone of voice was like a favor, which cruelly allowed Song Jiang to see clearly his actual weight in the other person's heart. It seemed that adults felt that he was only of this price.  But the good thing about Song Jiang is that he is a person who sees things through without telling them, and leaves room for everything.  And to be honest, he doesn't care too much about the size of his official position. After all, he has gone through hardships. Whether he was a junior official or a betrayal of his elder brother, it is really not easy to survive today's results.

    But the key point is that the group of people who followed him have developed an appetite under Tian Hu. They come to the palace commanders and ministers at will. Now that they have done it, he is only a capital prisoner, that is, Huang Xin of Qingzhou back then.  Even Qin Ming can't keep up with his level, so how can his subordinates get ahead!  ?  How can we continue to win over them?  Let them continue to help him improve in official circles!

    Is it about feelings?

    ¡°In today¡¯s world, all the people who can talk about emotions areHe was almost lured away by Wang Lun.

    Just when Song Jiang was miserable, he suddenly heard Liang Zhongshu point out a key point: "Did General Song disobey the officials in the past?" (To be continued.)
