Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 428 Li Kui: You surnamed Cai, you dare call yourself the "Sai Xuande"? [1st Update]

"Boom——"

Li Kui's words were like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, silencing the dozens of heroes at the banquet!

Many of the brothers were actually sighing, especially Wu Yong, Qin Ming, Lei Heng, and other direct subordinates of Song Jiang.

Anyone who came from Liangshan Marsh, who hasn't experienced the era of first respecting Song Jiang and then Cai Fu?
That's why it's even more poignant now. Both of them came from Liangshan Marsh, but Cai Fu has become the Prince of Qi!
Song Jiang, on the contrary, ended up being known as "Cai Fu's subordinate"...

Comparing yourself to others can be incredibly frustrating!
Originally, no one brought it up, so everyone pretended not to know.

What's wrong with offering sacrifices to Cai Fu first and then to Song Jiang?
He is the King of Qi, shouldn't we show him respect first?
Even Song Jiang had no choice but to accept this cruel reality and maintain the tacit understanding of pretending to be stupid with everyone else...

As a result, Li Kui broke this unspoken agreement!

Everyone fell silent. Even Song Jiang was silent for two seconds before he reacted and quickly reprimanded Li Kui:
"Tie Niu, you're drunk! Get out of here!"

Cai Fu glanced at Song Jiang, and seeing Song Jiang's panicked appearance, it was clear that Song Jiang was unaware of the situation.

It seems Li Kui is acting out of the ordinary again, but then again, he does often cause trouble.

For example, in the original work, there is a story about holding a "Chrysanthemum Festival" on the Double Ninth Festival one year.

Song Jiang got drunk and wrote a poem about surrendering to the imperial court, which he then had Yue He sing.

When the song reached the line "Hoping the Heavenly King will issue an edict to grant amnesty soon," Wu Song shouted:
"Today they want to be granted amnesty, tomorrow they want to be granted amnesty again, but this has chilled the hearts of the brothers!"

Logically speaking, Li Kui is Song Jiang's confidant and should stand on Song Jiang's side.

As a result, Li Kui opened his eyes wide and began to curse:
"Accept amnesty, accept amnesty, what kind of amnesty is this!"

Wu Song only said one sentence, but he not only cursed loudly but also kicked the table to pieces!

Enraged, Song Jiang ordered his men to be dragged out and beheaded!
For example, during the first surrender, all 107 leaders knelt in front of the hall to receive the imperial decree, except for Li Kui.

Grand Commandant Chen Zongshan read the imperial edict to Xiao Rang. Just as Xiao Rang finished reading it, Li Kui suddenly jumped down from the roof beam!
Xiao Rang snatched the imperial edict from his hand and tore it to shreds!

He grabbed Commandant Chen again and started punching him...

So Li Kui is like a time bomb; you never know when he'll explode.

Because Cai Fu's time travel prevented these events from happening, Song Jiang was completely unaware of Li Kui's ability to cause trouble and was entirely unprepared...

Even Song Jiang was stunned, and the other heroes of Gaizhou were even more dumbfounded by Li Kui:

Are you out of your mind? How can you say something like that?
After being reprimanded by Song Jiang, Li Kui not only did not back down, but instead glared with his bull-like eyes and continued to spout nonsense:

"We are all good brothers from Liangshan!"

"Back when we were on the mountain, we shared both good times and bad!"
"Now that Brother Cai Fu has become the king, if you still remember your brotherhood, how about you take Brother Qi Song Gongming as a junior king?"
"Let the strategist be the prime minister, Instructor Lin be the marshal, and we'll all be generals!"
"Let's storm Tokyo, seize the throne, and have a great time together. We'll also uphold our brotherhood. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Ah this..."

Li Kui's outrageous remarks left Song Jiang completely bewildered.

If he had followed Cai Fu back then, wouldn't it have been a foregone conclusion that Cai Fu would have become the king and he would have become the prince?

No!

I cannot betray the Song Dynasty, I cannot betray the court, I cannot betray His Majesty!

Song Jiang was struggling with his inner thoughts, and the other heroes of Gaizhou were also moved by Li Kui's words!

Apart from Song Jiang's few staunch supporters and a few who were determined to accept the imperial pardon, the heroes were all thinking:
Exactly! Wouldn't it be better for us all to become generals than to follow Song Jiang on his wandering adventures?

"Duh!"

Song Jiang, determined to accept the imperial pardon, flew into a rage and slammed his fist on the table:

"You audacious Li Kui! You've only had two bowls of horse piss before spouting nonsense!"

"Men, drag this scoundrel out!"

"Unrestrained" Mu Hong and "Winged Tiger" Lei Heng rushed forward and blocked Li Kui from the left and right:
"Tie Niu, stop talking and let's go!"

"Let me go!"

Li Kui has already lost his temper; Mu Hong and Lei Heng can't stop him.

With a sudden swing of his arms, Li Kui shook off the two men and rushed forward, his eyes wide with rage, his hair and beard bristling, pointing at Cai Fu and demanding an answer in a stern voice:

"You only care about your own wealth and status, how can you care about the lives of your brothers?"
"You surnamed Cai, you dare to call yourself 'Sai Xuande'?"

Li Kui's words stunned everyone. Wasn't this a complete distortion of the truth, calling a deer a horse?

Everyone knows Li Kui is a scoundrel, but today he's reached a new level of scoundreldom, making Song Jiang so angry he's practically trembling with rage...

"Shh-"

Just then, Hu Sanniang rushed forward from the side, drew her twin swords, and slashed at Li Kui!
The knife flashed, and blood appeared!
Li Kui pointed at Cai Fu's right hand, and with his wrist at the same length, it flew out amidst a flash of blood!

"hiss--"

Everyone couldn't help but gasp:
Good heavens, it's bleeding!
Hu Sanniang's eyebrows furrowed and her phoenix eyes widened as she pointed her blood-stained blade at Li Kui:
"Without my brother Cai Fu, you would have died on Erlong Mountain long ago!"
"You ungrateful wretch, if you dare to utter another curse on my brother Cai Fu, you'll regret it!"

"Ah this..."

Upon seeing Li Kui's hand severed, Song Jiang was so enraged that he wanted to order Lin Chong to capture Hu Sanniang again!
But Hu Sanniang's words were powerful and resounding, and Song Jiang opened his mouth but ultimately couldn't say anything...

If he ordered Lin Chong to capture Hu Sanniang, wouldn't he be protecting an ungrateful villain?
Wouldn't he also become an ungrateful villain?

The heroes of Gaizhou were dumbfounded. Emotionally, they were definitely on Li Kui's side, his own man.

But Hu Sanniang stood on the moral high ground; who would be willing to sacrifice their reputation for Li Kui?

Not to mention these warriors, even the "wise strategist" Wu Yong was at a loss for what to do at this moment.

If an ordinary person had one hand chopped off with a single blow, they would basically lose their ability to fight.

But Li Kui was no ordinary man; losing a hand only made his eyes turn red with anger!

"Ow—"

Li Kui immediately activated his berserk mode, roared, and pulled a large battle axe from his waist with his left hand!
Like a wounded bear, he unleashed his ferocity and viciously swung his large axe at Hu Sanniang!

With lightning speed, like a rabbit leaping and a falcon swooping!
In this hasty situation, the only ones who could influence the outcome were Mu Hong and Lei Heng, who had previously held off Li Kui!
However, at this moment, Mu Hong and Lei Heng were stunned, standing there dumbfounded and motionless!
"tractor--"

At this moment, Song Jiang was on the verge of a mental breakdown!
If Li Kui were to kill Hu Sanniang with an axe, the situation would completely spiral out of control!

Who doesn't know that Hu Sanniang and Cai Fu had an affair?
If Hu Sanniang were to die, Cai Fu would definitely go berserk. The problem is, I was sitting right next to Cai Fu!

Cai Fu is about to lose it. Won't he take it out on himself first?

But Li Kui has now entered berserk mode, and not even Song Jiang, let alone his own mother, can stop him!
