Hua Rong
Song Jiang, while sheltered by Hua Rong at Qingfeng Fort (清風寨; in present-day Qingzhou, Shandong) as he runs from the grave charge of killing his mistress Yan Poxi, is arrested and jailed by Liu Gao, the governor of the fort whose wife falsely accuses Song of abducting her with the bandits of Mount Qingfeng and nearly violating her. The fact, however, is that Song has prevented Wang Ying, one of the three bandit chieftains at Mount Qingfen who have befriended him, from raping her. Instead he has won her release as he is on the way to call on Hua Rong, who is the garrison commandant of Qingfeng Fort and a colleague of her husband.
