Lin Chong sighed inwardly after hearing what the butler said, and then glanced at Mu Hong next to him.
Mu Hong understood, stood up, and dragged the butler past him before walking out.
When the housekeeper saw Mu Hong like this, he was so frightened that he cried and said, "My king, please forgive me, my king, please forgive me.
I have already told you everything I know.
Didn't you promise to spare my life?
Why did you go back on your word?"
When Lin Chong heard what he said, he coldly replied, "What I hate the most is people who cheat on others and betray others for glory.
What's more, you are colluding with foreign enemies and colluding with Jin people.
It is an unforgivable crime, but I can't break my promise." , I only said I wouldn’t kill you, but I didn’t say others wouldn’t kill you.”
After hearing this, the housekeeper cried even louder and struggled with his hands, but he was no match for Mu Hong.
He was pulled out of the door a few times, and Mu Hong was killed with just one knife.
Lin Chong didn't take the housekeeper's death seriously.
If he killed such a person, he would kill him.
However, the concubine Zeng had made Lin Chong into trouble.
If we say it logically, the concubine and the child in her belly are innocent.
They did nothing wrong and they could not prevent the incident from happening.
Even the concubine might be the victim.
But if Lin Chong really lets go of the mother and son, what will he do if the child is born and grows up in the future and knows what happened, and seeks revenge on himself?
Because he is soft-hearted, he lets them go, and waits for the child to grow up and come back to take revenge a few years later, and there are examples of success.
They abound.
Alas, Lin Chong sighed.
If you want to blame me, just blame your mother and son for their bad fate.
Since ancient times, a kind-hearted person will not command troops, and a soft-hearted person will not strive for hegemony.
Don't blame me, Lin Chong, for being cruel.
After thinking about it, Lin Chong said to Shi Qian, "You and Tieniu will lead people to the cave that the steward said and get back all the things inside.
As for the concubine," Lin Chong paused here, then looked at Li Kui and said, "Tieniu, I’ll leave that concubine to you, give her a break, she’s a poor person too, don’t let her suffer anymore.”
The reason why Lin Chong asked Li Kui to do this was because he was afraid that others would feel sorry for the woman and let her go.
However, Lin Chong believed that Li Kui would not do it.
He believed that Li Kui would definitely complete what he told him well. , because this is what people love and hate about Li Kui.
He is a sharp sword when used well, and a curse when used poorly.
After hearing this, Shi Qian and Li Kui stood up to accept the order, then turned around and went out to do things.
Lin Chong felt a little depressed, and then said to everyone, "Everyone has been tired all night.
Now that everything has been dealt with, we can just find a place to rest for a while and recuperate.
There will be a fierce battle waiting for us when dawn comes." " Reinforcements from Lingzhou will arrive at noon tomorrow.
When thinking of Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo, Lin Chong has some expectations in his heart.
Although the two of them are not top figures, they can be regarded as two rare lieutenants.
They are from the regular army.
If they can surrender, it will be a small gain.
Of course, there are also the 5,000 Lingzhou troops who came with them.
After listening to Lin Chong's words, everyone got up and looked for a place to rest.
They would definitely not be able to fall asleep, but it was still necessary to close their eyes and relax for a while to restore their physical strength.
At dawn, Shi Qian and Li Kui came back with one or two hundred people.
Everyone was holding a medium-sized box in their hands, and some people were also carrying a bag.
I think Zeng had secretly hidden it in these boxes.
There is treasure in the bag, and the bag is food.

Shi Qian and Li Kui came to Lin Chong to return to his life.
Lin Chong was not very interested in how much money and food Shi Qian said he would harvest, because he had seen too much last night.
But he was very concerned about explaining the matter to Li Kui.
When he heard Li Kui say that everything was done, Lin Chong breathed a sigh of relief for some reason and felt relaxed.
Lin Chong praised the two of them and let them go down to rest.
There was plenty of food in the Zengtou market, and there was no shortage of cattle, sheep, pigs, and chickens.
Lin Chong ordered people to cook rice, kill some livestock, and cook them all.
Then he distributed them to everyone as a reward in advance, and told Everyone, wait until you return to the village to hold a grand celebration banquet and reward everyone.
Whether they were leaders or soldiers, eating the delicious meat and listening to Lin Chong's words about rewarding everyone, they all screamed with excitement, thinking in their hearts, "There is a real future with the big leader."
Someone shouted "Thank you, big boss" At first, one or two people were shouting, and then gradually everyone started shouting, "Thank you, big boss."
The voice got louder and louder.
The prisoners who were guarded by the Liangshan troops all looked envious when they saw the Liangshan soldiers eating meat and when they heard Lin Chong said that he wanted to reward everyone.
They all had the thought "It's great to join Liangshan."
On the official road fifty miles away from Zengtou City, a team of five thousand officers and soldiers was walking slowly towards Zengtou City.
Originally, their speed was very fast, but as a piece of news came from the spies, The two leading generals ordered the team to slow down.
This group of people were the Lingzhou troops who came to the rescue.
However, they had received a report from the spies an hour ago, saying that Zengtou City had been captured by Liangshan troops.
At this time, the Liangshan flag had been erected on the wall. .
Wei Dingguo, who was riding on the horse, sighed and said to Shan Tinggui next to him, "How could the Liangshan bandits conquer Zengtou City overnight?
You must know that the strength of the Zeng family's five tigers is not weak.
It's you and me."
It would be absolutely impossible for the two men to lead the troops and break through overnight."
"Well, who knows, I guess it must be a trick.
I wonder what happened to Commander Zeng and the five tigers of the Zeng family.
When you and I came, the prefect issued a military order to prevent the crisis in Zengtou City.
It was lifted and now it’s like this, I really don’t know what to do,” Shan Tinggui said.
Wei Dingguo shook his head after hearing this, "I can't blame you and me for this matter.
It's really because Zeng Toushi was so unlucky that he couldn't even hold on for one night.
I think the prefect picked up the news that you and I passed on quickly.
You will definitely understand.
But the trouble now is, before the order from the magistrate comes, what should the two of us do?
Should we continue to attack the Liangshan bandits, or should we stay put and wait for the news to come and act in accordance with the order?"
Shan Tinggui also felt a headache after hearing this, and couldn't help but cursed, "Damn Zengtou City, damn Liangshan bandits."
The two of them led the team forward slowly.
They should have arrived at Zengtou City long ago, but now they were still fifty miles away.
The two discussed it on the horse and felt that it was better to bring the officers and soldiers to Zengtou City first.
When they arrived in Zengtou City, they set up camp and inquired about the situation in Zengtou City while waiting for the prefect's reply.
As for whether to continue the attack or retreat, when they arrived It depends on what the adults give you.
After the two discussed it, they immediately asked the team to speed up and rush towards Zengtou City.
Lin Chong and some other leaders were discussing matters in the hall of Zeng Mansion.
Dai Zong walked in and said, "Brother, the officers and soldiers of Lingzhou will arrive soon.
They are still about twenty miles away from Zengtou City."
Lin Chong laughed after hearing this and said, "They came too slowly.
Send the order and gather two thousand troops.
Let's go meet the Lingzhou soldiers and horses to see what's different about them."

Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo led the Lingzhou Army to a place ten miles away from Zengtou City.
They were about to order the soldiers to set up camp when they saw a group of people coming out of Zengtou City.
The number was about two thousand.
There were people in front of them.
A dozen leaders led the way.
Seeing the Liangshan army coming, the two men quickly ordered the entire army to be on alert, and then each held their weapons and looked at the people coming from the opposite side.
Lin Chong led his men to stop a stone's throw away from Lingzhou's army and set up their formation.
Lin Chong urged his horse forward and looked at Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo opposite.
I saw only one of them, wearing soapy green clothes, a pair of black leather coated with black oil armor, a dark black horse under his crotch, and carrying a black spear, majestic, like a dark cloud before the formation.
Lin Chong looked at this person's appearance and attire, and thought that this person should be Shan Tinggui, the holy water general.
Look at another person, wearing a scarlet-pointed gold hair helmet, a pair of flaming red beast-swallowing face armor, a crimson robe of clouds and flying beasts, carrying a carved bow, and a pot of wolf hanging on his waist.
Tooth Arrow, riding a rouge horse, holding a cooked copper knife in his hand, with a ferocious expression, as if a ball of fire came out of the formation Needless to say, this person must be Wei Dingguo, the divine fire general.
After Lin Chong looked at the two of them, he said loudly, "The people across from you are soldiers from Lingzhou.
You two are the holy water generals.
I don't know why the divine fire generals have such names.
Could it be that you two can make rain and spit fire?"
No, um, hahahahaha" After saying that, he laughed together with everyone behind him.
Lin Chong wanted to make a quick decision, so he deliberately taunted the two of them with words.
The purpose was to make them angry and lead troops to fight.
Given the current situation of the Liangshan people, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time.
The sooner they rush back to the village, the better it will be for them, so that they can digest the benefits of this victory as soon as possible.
Sure enough, Wei Dingguo couldn't help but raise his sword to fight after hearing Lin Chong's taunting words.
Wei Dingguo was not only good at using fire attacks, but also had a very hot temper.
Shan Tinggui hurriedly stopped Wei Dingguo.
He was relatively calm.
After stopping Wei Dingguo, Shan Tinggui immediately took two steps forward and said to Lin Chong, "Ignorant grass bandits, good at killing innocent people and looting people's property.
Now the officers and soldiers are here." , if you don’t quickly put down your weapons, dismount and accept surrender, otherwise the officers and soldiers will not be left behind.”
Shan Tinggui wanted to shock the morale of everyone in Liangshan first, but his idea was good, but he used the wrong target.
Who are the heroes of Liangshan?
They are elites who have experienced countless battles.
How could they be He was frightened by just a few big words.
Lin Chong smiled after hearing this and did not argue.
He said calmly, "Who can capture this beast with me?"
As soon as Lin Chong finished speaking, Shan Shiqi rushed out to kill Shan Tinggui.
He waved the iron rod in his hand and shouted, "Every man shall die," and then went to kill Shan Tinggui.
Wei Dingguo could no longer hold back any longer.
When he saw someone coming to kill him, he rushed out and killed them first.
Wei Dingguo used a long sword, and Shan Shiqi used an iron rod.
The two of them directly attacked each other without answering.
For a moment, the stick was used to lift the knife, the knife was chopped and the stick was blocked.
You came and I started killing the general:
