Gongzi Read Water Margin No. 176
Lei Heng and Zhu Tong were not only good brothers on Liangshan, they were also old colleagues, they had all been governors in Yuncheng County, and the two were partners and comrades-in-arms.
Interestingly, when Liangshan Po was in the second place, Zhu Tong ranked twelfth, but Lei Heng ranked twenty-fifth, and the difference between the two was more than ten.
The same is the capital of Yuncheng County, why is the gap between the two so large? I'm afraid this has a lot to do with their people.
Zhu Tong, a person who looks like a heavy jujube and looks like a star, can be said to be more like Guan Erye than Guan Sheng's grandson. He not only looks exactly like Second Master Guan, but even has the same personality as Second Master Guan, who is righteous and loose, pays attention to righteousness, and likes to make friends with good men on the rivers and lakes.
Song Jiang, the abbot of Yuncheng County, was very friendly with him, and the two often drank together. Song Jiang even knew the most hidden secret of his home, the underground mantle hidden under the Buddhist hall for emergency.
After killing Yan Poxi, Song Jiang hid at home. The county sent people to Song Jiang's house to search, and everyone could not find Song Jiang. Only Zhu Tong, avoiding the crowd, found Song Jiang.
However, he did not want to betray Song Jiang, but to find a way for Song Jiang. Zhu Tong's search for Song Jiang mainly had three purposes:
First, tell Song Jiang about the progress of the current lawsuit.
Second, tell Song Jiang to flee from this place and go to hide elsewhere.
Third, sell Song Jiang a person and help Song Jiang to solve the lawsuit.
Song Jiang successfully escaped from Yuncheng County, and he will not forget Zhu Tong's kindness.
Also favored by Zhu Tong was Chao Gai, and after the Birthday Gang Incident, Zhu Tong and Lei Heng were ordered to go and arrest Chao Gai. The veteran Zhu Tong took the lead in saying that he would guard the back door, after all, Chao Gai had a greater probability of escaping from the back door.
Sure enough, Chao Gai escaped through the back door. Zhu Tong hurried to catch up, and Chao Gai mistakenly thought that Zhu Tong was going to catch him, so he shouted, "Zhu Dutou, what do you just have to chase me to do?" I have to do nothing wrong. ”
Seeing that there was no one around, Zhu Tong quietly told Chao Gai that he was not here to catch him, but to release him, and suggested that Chao Gai take refuge in Liangshan Po.
Chao Gai thanked Dade and walked away.
In this way, the two village owners of Liangshan Po owed Zhu Tong's affection.
Later, Lei Heng killed Bai Xiuying and put on a lawsuit for his life. Zhi County ordered Zhu Tong to escort Lei Heng to Jeju Province. If he really arrived in Jeju Capital, it is estimated that Lei Heng's life would be gone. Halfway through, Zhu Tong let Lei heng go, and he himself would go to Yuncheng to collect his guilt.
In fact, compared with the release of Song Jiang and Chao Gai, Zhu Tong's release of Lei Heng is still more touching. Because when Song Jiang and Chao Gai were released, others did not know what Zhu Tong did, and the risk zhu Tong took was extremely small.
The release of Lei Heng is different, Zhu Tong is responsible for escorting, Lei Heng fled, zhu Tong's responsibility is the greatest. If it were not for Zhixian's love for Zhu Tong's character, I am afraid that Zhu Tong would have committed a felony.
Lei Heng is a person who is far less well set up than Zhu Tong, and the book says that although he is righteous, he only has some narrow heart plaques.
Lei Heng did have a time of righteousness, in fact, when Song Jiang and Chao Gai were killed, he had the heart to take care of each other.
Zhu Tong went with him to search Song Jiang's home, but Song Jiang was not there, and according to the instructions of Zhi County, He wanted to take Song Taigong to the county for questioning, and Lei Heng consulted with Zhu Tong like this:
"Zhu Dutou, you listen to me. Song Abstained from his crimes, and there must be a reason for this. Killing this mother-in-law is not a capital offense. Since the Taigong already had an official document, which was a letter-printing official document, and it was not a fake, we looked at the face of the Song Paosi's recent contacts, and the right and responsibility for him were some, and only copied the attachment to go back to the conversation. ”
When releasing Chao Gai, Lei Heng did not grab the back door, he could only think of a way at the front door:
This Lei Heng also had the heart to save Chao Gai, so he scrambled to hit the back door first, but was told by Zhu Tong that it was opened, so he had to hit him at the front door. Deliberately such a fuss, the sound of the east and west, to urge Chao Gai to leave.
The only regret is that Lei Heng's painstaking heart is not understood by Zhu Tong, who said a sentence when releasing Chao Gai and Song Jiang, "I am afraid that Lei Heng is obsessed and will not be humane...", when reading this, I always feel that Zhu Tong is showing himself and deliberately demeaning Lei Heng.
With Zhu Tong's words, perhaps Lei Heng's status in the hearts of Chao Gai and Song Jiang had slightly declined.
After being released by Zhu Tong, Lei Heng fled to Liangshan with his old mother overnight.
When Chao Gai and Song Jiang heard that Zhu Tong was implicated in this matter and was sent to Cangzhou, they both felt that they should take Zhu Tong to Liangshan and sit in a chair, drink wine in a big bowl, eat a large piece of meat, and live happily together.
Although Zhu Tong repeatedly expressed his reluctance to go to Liangshan, in Li Kui's eyes, Zhu Tong was embarrassed, so Li Kui killed Xiao Yanei, who zhu Tong took care of, which forced Zhu Tong to go to Liangshan.
When Liangshan Po was seated in the second place, out of retribution for Zhu Tong's life-saving grace and the debt to make Zhu Tong earn Liangshan, Zhu Tong was ranked eleventh. And that "can't be a human" Lei Heng can only barely sit on the twenty-fifth chair.
