Seeing Zhu Zongbao getting angry from shame.
The people around him were all afraid of his family's power and moved to the left and right to avoid him.
As the people moved out of the way, a large space suddenly became vacant in front of the originally crowded notice.
It is precisely because of this that Gu Dengyuan, who was responsible for inspecting the notices at the four city gates today, discovered something unusual here.
At the same time, Pang Wenze, who had been watching the notice attentively, could not help but be attracted by the noise at Zhu Zongbao.
Before the two of them could figure out the reason, Zhu Zongbao rushed straight to the old man who was kneeling on the ground, holding back the severe pain in his abdomen and using his hands and feet to collect the sour steamed buns.
Zhu Zongbao came closer, raised his leg and stepped on the old man's back, cursing in his mouth: "You bitch, I will beat you to death if I say anything today, you bitch."
As he spoke, Zhu Zongbao raised his right leg high and stepped hard on the old man's back with gritted teeth.
With this kick, the old man would definitely die given his age and complexion.
Gu Dengyun and Pang Wenze's expressions changed at the same time.
"Stop!" they both roared at the same time.
While roaring, the two of them rushed towards Zhu Zongbao and the old man.
Although the two did not know what happened, they watched an old man die in front of them.
And he was beaten to death by a young man in brocade clothes.
Anyone with a bit of blood may find it difficult to accept it.
However, in front of the crowded notice, only Pang Wenze and Gu Dengyun were the only ones who actually stopped him.
Isn't this... a sad thing?
However, Pang Wenze was still too far away, even if he could break through the crowd.
By the time he actually arrives, the old man may have already died.
Just when Zhu Zongbao was about to step down heavily with his right foot.
Gu Dengyun, who was relatively close, quickly pulled off the saber from his waist. Without any hesitation, he picked up the saber and threw it towards Zhu Zongbao's right leg.
"Bang!"
At the critical moment, Gu Dengyun's saber hit Zhu Zongbao's right leg that was about to fall.
"Ah!" Zhu Zongbao screamed in pain.
Under the huge force, Zhu Zongbao's right foot still fell down, but fortunately the landing position changed from the waist to the abdomen.
Zhu Zongbao dropped his foot, but the old man was not injured. The sole of his foot landed on the bluestone floor along the old man's loose linen clothes that did not fit him.
"What a technique!" Pang Wenze shouted as he rushed towards the old man.
When Gu Dengyun heard this, he didn't even turn his head, and rushed straight across the crowd towards the old man.
When Gu Dengyun arrived, Zhu Zongbao was squatting on the ground holding his right leg and wailing crazily.
The servants behind him looked anxiously at Zhu Zongbao and then at Gu Dengyun.
It's not that they don't want to avenge Zhu Zongbao, it's really that they, the servants, can't afford to offend Gu Dengyun.
As long as he is not blind, it is not difficult to find that the half armor and clothes on Gu Dengyun's body are exactly the same as those of the soldiers guarding the notice.
Behind these soldiers is King Yan.
On weekdays, they were allowed to bully the common people. Occasionally, they would get into fights with other dudes from aristocratic families. Each one would rush faster than the other and beat him harder.
But if they were allowed to go against the people of Prince Yan's Mansion, they would not dare even if they were lent hundreds of bear-hearted leopards and courageous men.
….
After all, if you lose your job, you can find it again. The worst thing you can do is beg for food.
But if his life is lost, then everything is really over.
On the other hand, the old man kneeling on the ground had no idea at this time that he had just come around the gate of hell.
Still lying on the ground on hands and knees, picking up sour and moldy steamed buns and pancakes.
It was as if those steamed buns and pancakes were more important than his own life.
Gu Dengyun picked up the saber and glanced coldly at the wailing Zhu Zongbao.
After he hung up the waist knife again, he did not help the old man immediately.
Squatting on the ground, he helped the old man pick up the steamed buns and pancakes scattered on the floor.
After more than ten rests, more than ten soldiers from Prince Yan's Mansion arrived.
The soldiers glanced at the old man and the steamed buns and pancakes scattered on the ground.
After sighing heavily, he squatted on the ground and helped pick it up.
It's not that they have no sympathy, but they have seen enough similar scenes when they were on duty at Xuanpingmen.
When Pang Wenze arrived with several guards, Gu Dengyun had already helped the old man pick up all the steamed buns and pancakes scattered on the ground.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you Jun...junye." The old man stood up slowly with Gu Dengyun's help.
Gu Dengyun shook his head slightly and said softly: "It's a small matter."
After finishing his words, Gu Dengyun asked softly: "Old man, why did that man hit you?"
Without waiting for the old man to answer.
Zhu Zongbao, who was squatting on the ground and wailing in pain, gradually regained his composure.
Without raising his head, he yelled loudly: "You're a thief! Who lost the knife? You're tired of living, aren't you?"
"Okay, okay! Today I will let you know the consequences of offending the Zhu family."
With that said, Zhu Zongbao stood up with difficulty, and a servant quickly stepped forward to help him up.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Zongbao stood up without any hint of gratitude.
Instead, he slapped the servant in the face.
After a loud bang of "Pa!", Zhu Zongbao yelled angrily: "You've already done this! Let's see how I deal with you when I get back home!"
After finishing his words, Zhu Zongbao ignored the aggrieved servants and looked up at the old man, Gu Dengyun and others.
At first glance, Zhu Zongbao's face showed fear, and he couldn't help but step back.
If the servants could see things, how could he not see it.
After all, he is just an ignorant dude, not a fool with a brain problem.
"Who did you just scold?" Gu Dengyun asked sharply with a cold look on his face.
Others may be afraid of the so-called No. 1 family in Shanggu County, but he, Gu Dengyun, is not afraid.
What's more, before today's patrol, Xu Yi specifically told him to pay attention to the reactions of the people and Xiao Xiao who was hiding among the people.
How could Gu Dengyun let go of such a God-given opportunity so easily?
After saying this, Gu Dengyun held the scabbard in one hand and the unsheathed handle in the other, and strode towards Zhu Zongbao.
"No... I didn't say anyone." Seeing Gu Dengyun's menacing approach, Zhu Zongbao became more and more frightened and stepped back even more.
In an instant, when the onlookers moved to avoid him, they could not help but sigh.
When had the common people of Yan seen the rich and poor of wealthy families?
If nothing unexpected happens, this scene will soon spread throughout the streets and alleys of Juyang City and become the talk of countless people after dinner.
….
Pang Wenze crossed his arms and watched the scene in front of him with interest.
From the whispers of the people around him, Pang Wenze already knew Zhu Zongbao's true identity.
Gu Dengyun was wearing a military uniform, and Pang Wenze, who was extremely familiar with the military, had no difficulty in distinguishing Gu Dengyun's rank from the military uniform.
'A small household in Prince Yan's Mansion has the confidence to go against the dandy son of the No. 1 family in Juyang City. , Pang Wenze sighed deep in his heart: "It can be seen that this new King of Yan is a strong master at heart." ,
'But that's fine, Bianjun is not another place. Bianjun is not afraid of your strength, but is afraid of your weakness. , Pang Wenze looked solemnly in the direction of Juyongguan.
Three hundred miles away from Juyongguan is the pasture of the Xiongnu tribe.
Gu Dengyun stopped one step away from Zhu Zongbao, looking back and forth at Zhu Zongbao as if looking at a dead person.
With the sound of "Zeng", the sword on Gu Dengyun's waist was unsheathed.
Under the sunlight, a cold light bloomed from the blade.
Zhu Zongbao could no longer withstand the tremendous pressure brought by Gu Dengyun.
My legs and feet went weak, and I sat down straight on the ground.
.
"I...I really didn't scold you."
"I...I scolded myself, yes! I scolded myself."
"I'm tired of living, right! I'm tired of living."
"You have a lot of them, so just treat me like a fart."
Zhu Zongbao collapsed on the ground and prayed tremblingly.
Even though the sighs around him became louder and louder, Zhu Zongbao never turned his head to look at him, let alone uttered verbal threats.
At this time, Zhu Zongbao only wanted to save his life, and he didn't care about shame.
Gu Dengyun still maintained his posture with the blade just a few inches out of its sheath, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you kill an old man?"
"I...I...I..." Zhu Zongbao argued with me for a long time, but he still couldn't say a complete sentence.
If you really want to explore it, you should be used to it. ,
When a habit becomes natural, sometimes even the person involved doesn’t understand why he or she reacts that way.
Of course, when the habit becomes natural, the person involved will naturally no longer think hard about why he does what he does.
Just when Zhu Zongbao was stammering and unable to speak a complete sentence.
The people watching took advantage of the chaos and talked about the cause of the incident.
Gu Dengyun listened carefully for a moment, and finally sorted out the cause and course of the entire incident from the messy information.
"Take it down." Gu Dengyun waved his hand slightly and ordered expressionlessly.
"Follow the order!" The four soldiers responded with clasped fists, and then quickly walked towards Zhu Zongbao.
Zhu Zongbao struggled instinctively in panic.
But how could a playboy, whose body had been drained by wine and sex, be able to defeat four broad-shouldered soldiers?
One of the soldiers raised his arm and used his palm as a knife to stab Zhu Zongbao's neck.
After the blow, Zhu Zongbao became completely quiet.
In the crowd, several Zhu Zongbao's followers looked at each other, and then dispersed in all directions.
Gu Dengyun looked coldly at the back of one of them who was fleeing in panic, but ignored him.
It is better to have someone go to inform you than to send someone to inform yourself.
….
Gu Dengyun glanced coldly at Zhu Zongbao who was tied up by Wuhua Dadai, without saying much.
He turned around and walked towards the old man who was helped up by the soldiers.
"Thank...Thank you, Master Jun, for saving your life." The old man said with difficulty, clasping his fists and saluting.
Gu Dengyun looked at the old man's hands in a fist-cup salute, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Have you ever joined the army?" Gu Dengyun asked calmly and softly.
There are subtle differences in gestures between the fist-holding salute of ordinary warriors and the fist-holding salute of military personnel.
Those who do not understand the military will naturally not be able to easily distinguish the subtle differences between the two gestures.
But Gu Dengyun is from a household in the military, so his understanding of the military is naturally unparalleled by outsiders.
The old man's face paused for a moment, then he nodded slowly and said, "When I was young, I served as a corvee and joined the army."
After hearing this, Gu Dengyun couldn't help but turn around and glance coldly at the unconscious Zhu Zongbao again.
This time, Gu Dengyun's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Seeing this, the old man quickly clasped his fists again and said: "Little old man, I thanked the military master for saving his life. This matter... this matter cannot be completely blamed on the young man, little old man... little old man There are mistakes too.”
When Gu Dengyun heard this, he sighed in his heart and turned away to look at Zhu Zongbao. What did the old man mean? Gu Dengyun couldn't see it.
"Take these for now. It won't be long before the prince will build a nursing home." Gu Dengyun took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and put it into the old man's hand without any explanation.
"This... how can this be done?" The old man looked at the few taels of silver in his hand and declined anxiously: "The military master saved the little old man's life, and the little old man has nothing to repay, and what's more? How can you be so shameless with your military master’s money?”
"Take it." Gu Dengyun's face straightened and he could not refuse: "Take good care of your body and bones, and stay alive until the prince builds the nursing home."
"My prince built a nursing home so that the veterans who have fought and shed blood for the country can be provided for in their old age."
"If you don't accept it, if today's incident reaches the ears of my prince, my prince will definitely blame me."
"Could it be that, after we saved your life, you turned around and framed me?"
The old man's expression paused, and he looked at the few taels of silver in his hand, and then looked at Gu Dengyun, who had a serious face. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.
Pang Wenze's eyes turned between the old man and Gu Dengyun, and he couldn't help but be secretly amazed.
"Take it, you can't just save your life and then turn around and get punished." Pang Wenze stepped forward and said slowly.
The old man struggled for a moment, then slowly knelt down and said, "This is a gift from the military master. I dare not say goodbye. I will accept it shamelessly for the time being until I and the others enter the nursing home."
"I will definitely try my best to repay the kindness I owe you today."
When Gu Dengyun heard this, he did not refuse. He helped the old man up and said seriously, "Then I will wait for you to repay me."
Pang Wenze looked at the sack that the old man regarded as life and frowned slightly: "Is the food in this bag brought to those robes of yours?"
Hearing this, the old man blushed and nodded, and then whispered: "The little old man has no ability, so I can only let them eat some leftovers."
Gu Dengyun and Pang Wenze looked at the old man's hungry face almost at the same time.
….
As the two asked each other, the old man slowly revealed his unspeakable secrets one by one.
The old man's name was Wu Shouyi. In the seventh year of Zhengde, he entered the left guard camp of King Yan's palace. In the ninth year of Zhengde, he accompanied the former King of Yan to the Xiongnu expedition.
It was also during this battle that the former King of Yan accidentally fell into the siege of the Xiongnu.
The three major guard battalions followed King Yan and fought hard for more than ten days, but they were unable to wait for reinforcements.
At that time, there was not much food and grass left in the army, so the former King of Yan had no choice but to break out of the encirclement.
It is not clear what Wu Shouyi knew about that battle.
Wu Shouyi only remembered that he, along with the robes from the Zuowei camp, desperately tried to break out of the Huns' encirclement.
As a result, the team was broken up by the Huns.
Wu Shouyi didn't even know how he got back to Juyongguan.
All he remembered was that the whole grassland was full of scattered robes.
Wu Shouyi ran desperately with the defeated army, but in the end he was lucky enough to survive.
However, the former King of Yan stayed on that grassland forever.
After hearing the news that the former King of Yan had died in battle, Wu Shouyi's team regrouped and vowed to find the body of the former King of Yan.
But when they come to the battlefield again.
The entire battlefield has become a ghost.
Later, as the former King of Yan died in battle, the crown prince of the former King of Yan gave up the prince title and moved his family away from Yan.
The few thousand soldiers and horses remaining in the three major guard camps were scattered, and those who were transferred to other armies were transferred to other armies.
Wu Shouyi officially retired from the army because he had to take care of his fellow villager Shi Paoze who was seriously injured.
