"Brother, don't think I'm thin." Hou San straightened his hips in dissatisfaction, made a few movements like a male dog in heat, and said exaggeratedly, "Brother is very talented in this area, but it's a pity that he doesn't have the opportunity to serve in the palace. The Queen. Damn it, that guy is really blessed after eight lifetimes of cultivation, and he can actually fuck the Queen. If I, Hou San, can fuck her once, even if I die immediately, then I will be willing to do so."
Guo Mo had been standing aside with a smile on his face, listening to these lazy guys bragging. When he heard Hou San's words, his expression finally changed. He stepped over and raised his hand to face Hou San fiercely. He gave a big slap and cursed: "You are a talented person who has been killed by a thousand cuts. This is what you can say. Even if you are seeking death, don't drag us with you. If you can't control your foul mouth, , I will use a military stick to control it."
When Hou San saw it was Guo Mo, he quickly put on a flattering smile and slapped himself lightly with his hand, "Brother, I was wrong. I was wrong. Isn't that okay? Brother, you don't know yet." I am a person who gets into trouble every day just because of my bad mouth. I also want to control it, but it doesn't listen to me."
Seeing how lazy Guo Mo was, he couldn't help but kick him again and cursed with a smile: "If you want to be poor for a while, go and check whether everything is ready."
"Guo Tou, in these peaceful times, we are in Shangluo. What could happen? Is it different whether we check or not?"
Guo Mo's eyes widened, and his right hand immediately pressed on the handle of the knife at his waist: "What, you don't obey the military orders? Do you really think that the knife in my hand is vegetarian?"
Seeing that the other party was serious about what he said, Hou San quickly put his feet together and shouted loudly: "Yes!" He turned around and walked away without knowing what to say.
This Guo Mo came from a poor family and was a native of Hongnong County. His physique was different from that of ordinary people since he was a child, and his effectiveness in refining his body far exceeded that of others. Soon he became a fifth-level cultivator, and his reputation began to be known to everyone. After the death of Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty, Taifu Yang Jun took over the power. This Yang Jun was also a Hongnong person, and it was the time to employ people at that time. A fellow countryman recommended Guo Mo to Yang Jun. After Yang Jun tried it, he suddenly felt that this man was not only extremely skilled in cultivation, but also very sound when talking about military affairs. Since he was from the same hometown, Yang Jun asked Guo Mo to follow him as a confidant.
Before this, Guo Mo had only done a good job in catching thieves in Huayin County, and he always felt that he could not sell his skills to a prince's family. At this time, he was appreciated by the powerful Taifu Yang Jun, and he really wanted to give his life to this Taifu Yang. As a personal guard of Yang Jun, although his cultivation level is not the highest, he is extremely talented and his strength is not comparable to that of some fourth-grade monks. What's more, he was proficient in swordsmanship, bold and careful, and was very organized in doing things. He quickly impressed many of his guards, which made Yang Jun admire him endlessly. He always told him that after this period of not being very peaceful, He will be released as a school captain, and let him follow the army to perform meritorious service, so that he can become a general and a marquis in the future.
Those days were the happiest days in Guo Mo's life, the days when he was most motivated. During those days, all kinds of beautiful dreams for the future seemed to be within reach as long as he stretched out his hand.
But the good times did not last long, and Yang Jun was too taboo to dominate the government. Empress Jia keenly took advantage of Yang Jun's unpopularity and secretly summoned Runan Wang Huangfu Liang to Beijing to kill Yang Jun.
Guo stood silently behind the parapet, looking at the white fish belly on the horizon, and couldn't help but think of the night when Yang Jun was killed.
"Master Taifu, there are changes outside." Guo Mo rushed into the fine pavilion where Yang Jun was conferring with a hurried expression, and loudly reported: "A large group of people came out of the Sima Gate in the palace and are rushing towards Taifu."
When everyone in the Jing Pavilion heard this, their expressions changed drastically. Bo Zhuzhen, the Grand Tutor Master, asked anxiously: "How many people are there?"
"In the darkness, even a small person can't see how many there are. There are roughly five or six hundred people."
Zhu Zhen breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing this, and his expression suddenly became relaxed. He turned to Yang Jun and said: "Ming Gong, good people don't come, and those who come are not good. These people come at night, and they must be doing something shameful. As a subordinate, It seems that no matter whose name they come in, we only need to kill this group of people with the force of thunder, so that the villains who cause harm behind the scenes will be afraid."
Zhu Zhen's words immediately aroused the echo of all the cabinet ministers in the Taifu Mansion.
"There are now more than 5,000 fighting monks in our Taifu's mansion. As long as the Taifu gives an order, I will go out and kill these rats that come at night."
"Master, give the order!"
"Ming Gong, don't worry about the legendary King Runan who came secretly. No matter how powerful the army and horses are, King Runan can't catch up with Luolai immediately. Taking ten thousand steps back, it's Runan King Nan secretly brought many monks into the city. As long as the Taifu gives the order, we will immediately go to the outside of the city to lead the army into the city. No matter how many monks he brings, if the army enters the city, then the army will enter the city. It's just like a moth throwing itself into the fire and destroying itself." Zhu Zhen continued to persuade from the side.
"That's not it!" Yang Jun looked hesitant and embarrassed, "Maybe this army of soldiers and horses is not coming towards our Grand Tutor's Mansion."
"Ming Gong, you are confused." Zhu Zhen said anxiously: "We are now in control of the government. Any movement of troops in Shangluo City must go through our Taifu's Mansion. Tonight's movement of people and horses will definitely not go through our Taifu's Mansion. Everything in the world If it's abnormal, it must be a monster. It must be coming for us."
"But who wants to harm me, Yang Jun?" Yang Jun looked confused, "I, Yang Jun, have been ordered by the late emperor to serve the court and the Jin Dynasty with all my heart. I have not sought any personal gain for our Yang family. Which villain is slandering me and trying to harm me?"
"Ming Gong, this is urgent. All we need to do is defeat the group outside, capture a few alive, and question them carefully."
Just when Yang Jun was undecided, he heard a commotion outside.
"Master Taifu, a group of troops has surrounded my Taifu's residence, saying..."
"Tell me what it is, tell me quickly."
"Yes." The personal guard who came in said with a panic look on his face: "They said they were ordered to arrest the Grand Tutor."
"What? Are you here under the imperial edict?" Yang Jun's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he suddenly froze there.
"Huh." There was a sound, and Guo Mo, who had been standing at the door, suddenly pulled out the long knife from his waist and said loudly: "Master Taifu, don't panic, a group of young people are afraid of what he will do. Guo is not talented and is willing to lead a team of people to kill him." When you are about to go out, you must protect your master carefully."
After Guo Mo finished speaking, he turned around and left. At this moment, Yang Jun shouted: "Guo Mo, stop!"
Guo Mo turned around in shock and looked at Yang Jun with a puzzled expression.
"Where are you trying to force me to go?" Yang Jun shouted loudly and heartbroken, "My Yang Jun's loyalty to the Jin Dynasty can be seen from the sky. Even if I come to argue in front of His Majesty, I will not be afraid of anyone. . You must not use weapons against each other. This matter will be difficult to deal with if people are killed."
"Ming Gong!" Zhu Zhen knelt down in front of Yang Jun with a bang, "Ming Gong, you are so confused! How can the other party let you, Taifu, see His Majesty in this situation?"
"Guo Mo," Zhu Zhen knelt there and looked back at Guo Mo, and said viciously, "immediately summon the people in the palace to kill the general and go out. Tell him that the Taifu has an order, and there are people outside who are false and rebellious. Anyone who kills a person should come to see him with his head. Taifu will be rewarded heavily."
"Hey." Guo Mo, who was standing behind the female wall, sighed softly and said silently in his heart: "It would have been great if I had just ignored him and killed him that day."
Just as he sighed, Guo Mo's pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw a black line appearing in the distance where the sky and the earth met. The black line was getting longer and thicker.
"Fuck!" Guo Mo cursed at the black line, and then shouted at the top of his voice: "Blow the horn and close the city gate!"
Suddenly, the sound of powerful horns spread among the city gates.
Suddenly, people under the city wall were running around in chaos. Miscellaneous debris was scattered everywhere.
Pei Zheng looked with a livid face at the rows of soldiers with bright armor and bright weapons bearing the banner of the leader of Jinzhong outside the city wall. His handsome face was so gloomy that it seemed like it could drip water.
"Rebellion, this is a fucking rebellion!" Pei Zheng thought in his heart, but until the last moment, he didn't want to say anything to irritate the leader of the Jinzhong, who had tens of thousands of troops.
Pei Zheng is the captain of Shangluo City Gate and is in charge of the twelve gates of Shangluo City. He is a member of the Hedong Pei family, one of the eight most wealthy families in the world, and he is a dignified fourth-grade monk.
The Pei family and Queen Jia Zhi are relatives. Empress Jia's aunt married an adult of the Pei family. Empress Jia had either lived in the Jia family or the Pei family since she was a child. Even her childhood years in the Pei family were longer than those in the Jia family. The two families The relationship is very close.
Although the Pei family has such a close relationship with Empress Jia, the Pei family has already publicly stated that the Pei family will never participate in the Huangfu family's dispute for the throne, and no children of the Pei family are allowed to help Empress Jia. Regarding this, Empress Jia was always filled with anger. She couldn't figure out why those cousins, cousins, and uncles who had played so well together since childhood didn't help her relative?
But she was so angry that even before Queen Jia was angry, she was completely blinded. In her heart, she still trusts the cousins in the Pei family who she has played with since childhood.
Pei Zheng had been playing with Empress Jia since he was a child.
The Jia family and the Pei family are both from Hedong County, and their hometowns are less than two hundred miles apart. According to the two families, the two families had been intermarrying for thousands of years and were connected by blood.
Although the head of the Pei family strictly ordered the children of the Pei family not to participate in the dispute for the Huangfu family's reserve position, Pei Zheng's acceptance of the order from the city gate captain was a court order and an official business, and it was not considered participating in the Huangfu family's dispute for the reserve position.
In fact, Pei Zheng absolutely disapproved of Queen Jia's actions in his heart, and he had extremely hoped that Prince Huangfu Yu would ascend to the throne as soon as possible. But that's how things are in this world. Nine out of ten people are unhappy in life. The talented prince Huangfu Yu died quietly before he had time to display his unparalleled talents.
After Pei Zheng learned the news last night, he was shocked and his mind went blank. Many people in the Pei family were extremely shocked. They were shocked that Queen Jia, a cute little girl they had grown up watching, could do such a cruel thing.
No matter what, as a queen, Jia Zhi has a mother who respects the world, so Huangfu Yu has to call you queen and greet you every day.
How could you do it?
But shock is a shock, and you have to live your life how you want to.
The elder of the Pei family who had the closest relationship with Empress Jia went to the palace overnight last night. When he came back, he was angry and lamented: "Why did Jia Chong give birth to such a daughter who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth? I'm afraid it will hurt us this time." The Pei family is gone. Those of the children in the family who can return to Hedong should not make any stops and rush back to Hedong overnight. There will be chaos in Shangluo, and our Pei family will suffer a catastrophe. Remember, no matter what happens in Shangluo, the children who stay in Hedong must Stay safe, don’t stand out, don’t speak out. Keep in touch with the Jinyang Wang family and others, and follow the Jinyang Wang family’s lead in everything.”
Although Pei Zheng was shocked by the murder of the prince, he did not agree with the words of the powerful second-grade purple-robed monk in his family.
This is Shangluo, the center of the empire.
Last time they talked about Yang Jun's rebellion and the rebellion between King Runan and King Chu, but so what?
What should I do in Shangluo? Except for the unlucky deaths of a few people, this life has not changed at all.
The political laxity of the Jin Dynasty was unparalleled since the Yin Dynasty. We are all ministers of the same palace, and we all belong to high-ranking families. No one will do such a stupid thing as killing someone without hesitation.
When he heard the sound of horns that only appeared during training in the city gate captain's office, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
When he quickly arrived at Wanchun Gate, standing on the city wall, he saw the leaders of the Great Jinzhong approaching the city wall step by step in a neat line, and an ominous premonition suddenly welled up in his heart.
"Could it be that what Uncle Wu predicted last night is going to come true?"
He shook his head, trying to get rid of this ominous thought, and encouraged himself in his heart: "Shangluo City Wall is so majestic, no matter how many soldiers and horses come, it will be useless."
"Guo Mo!" he shouted loudly.
"Here, sir!" Guo Mo, who had been standing aside, immediately stood up with his feet together and shouted loudly.
"Immediately check whether bows, arrows, bed crossbows, fallen rocks, rolling logs, spiritual stones and other items are intact and complete."
"My order, sir!" Guo Mo responded loudly, and immediately called several people to run away together.
There are countless talismans carved on the city wall of Shangluo. Once triggered, they have endless magical uses. This is the center of the world, this is the center of the empire, this is the most majestic city in the world, this is a city that claims to never be captured!
Seeing Guo Mo in the distance ordering everyone to check various equipment one by one in an orderly and meticulous manner, Pei Zheng nodded with satisfaction.
He has always been very satisfied with Guo Mo and his abilities. He valued Guo Mo very much. He once told his family members in private that Guo Mo would definitely become a famous general in the Jin Dynasty in the future.
That day, after Yang Jun was captured, all of Yang Jun's bodyguards, except Guo Mo and a few others, also laid down their weapons and surrendered. Some people suggested that all these guards should be deprived of their titles and deported home. Pei Zheng had always heard Guo Mo's name, so he asked Guo Mo and others from King Runan. From then on, Guo Mo followed Pei Zheng. It's just that people have become more reticent.
