My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 164 Wipe
Is it so difficult to become a marquis after meritorious deeds?
Is my Zhangbu's lofty ambition to be so high that he will be killed before he can display it?
Pei Zheng had already dodged aside at this time, his face was ashen, and his heart was full of embarrassment and anger.

What a shame, what a shame.

He was not humiliated because he was a fourth-rank monk who was almost beheaded by a fifth-rank monk, but because he was a dignified Zhou clan monk, and he was a dignified member of the Hedong Pei family, but he was almost beheaded in public by a poor family.

It's just that he is so angry, but he still keeps thinking in his heart that he is a dignified member of the Zhou family, and it is not in the style of the nobles of the Zhou family to besiege an opponent with others, let alone besieging a poor family?

Pei Zheng was on the verge of gnashing his steel teeth, while still trying to maintain his usual Zhou family demeanor.

The humble family really has no bottom line and no rules at all.

The first in the family background of the nine-rank Zhongzheng system is indeed the best in wisdom.

In this environment, Pei Zheng actually had a little understanding of the Ninth Grade Zhongzheng System.

It's just that at this moment, he has already forgotten the time for thinking about Huangfufu and others under the city wall.

For the nobles of the Zhou clan like Pei Zheng, even if they were fighting for life and death, they had to follow the rules and fight one-on-one.From childhood to adulthood, all of this seems to be engraved in the bones of these Zhoumen's children.Because if you don't follow these rules that have been agreed upon among nobles, then your reputation will spread in the noble circle immediately.As for the consequences, they are obviously obvious.Judging grades, certainly not weeks.If the rank is not good, they cannot hold important court positions, and cannot inherit the title of the family.For many aspiring noble children of the Zhou family, such a consequence would be worse than death.

So, Guo Mo and Zhang Bu gritted their teeth and fought back and forth like two ferocious beasts, but Pei Zheng didn't order the crowd to rush up and take Zhang Bu down.

He even hesitated about one thing in his heart: if Zhang Bu wins against Guo Mo, will he still have to let Zhang Bu go according to the rules among nobles?

But in a blink of an eye, he thought of another thing, and the entanglement in his heart disappeared.

Yes, this is not a personal grievance, it involves the answer of King Zhao's rebellion.If Zhang Bu defeated Guo Mo, it would not be considered a violation of the rules to send another person.

Pei Zheng himself didn't bother to make a move, the dignified Pei family from the east of the river actually wanted to single out a poor family, and those from the Zhou family would laugh at him when he passed on the general.

He thought so, but those soldiers who stayed with Guo Mo every day didn't think so.The sword has no eyes, it means surpassing the opponent in skill, there should not be too many examples of being beheaded by the opponent without paying attention.

That Zhugan Hou San had already held a short crossbow in his hand at some point, and the bolts on the short crossbow had already been placed in a good position. With a cruel sneer at the corner of his mouth, he raised the crossbow horizontally with his left hand, letting the back of the crossbow The end rested on the hollow of his shoulder, tilted his head, and took a look with his eyes.Seizing the right moment, he said lightly, "Middle!" At the same time, his right hand released the handle of the short crossbow.

"Crack." With a sound, the short crossbow made of iron arrows flashed a black light, and shot straight towards the direction where Zhang Bu's figure changed.

"Ah!" Zhang Bu screamed loudly, Hou San's crossbow arrow was fast and accurate, and it hit his thigh fiercely.Although he instinctively contracted his thigh muscles as soon as the arrow pierced into the muscle, the force of the crossbow machine was so great that the crossbow bolt mercilessly pierced through the tight and strong muscles and pierced deeply. Blood immediately seeped out along the arrow tip and the scissors, causing Zhang Bu to cry out in pain.

He was hit by an arrow in his leg, not only did he stagger, the leg hit by the arrow bent his knee involuntarily, and he was half kneeling on the ground.At the same time, the movements of his hands were also slightly deformed.What a seasoned monk Guo Mo is, he looked at the gap, first knocked the thick-backed broadsword in his hand, and swung Zhang Bu's long sword around. This time, Zhang Bu's whole body was exposed.

"Shua." After the thick-backed saber smashed the long sword, it turned into a black light from top to bottom and slashed down. Zhang Bu looked at the saber with his head tilted in pain, knowing that there was no way to hide. Unstoppable, strong unwillingness surged in my heart.

I'm just a little short of it.

I'm just a little short of winning the Marquis.

Youyou heaven, how thin you are to me!
"I'm not reconciled!" Zhang Bu yelled, without closing his eyes, his eyes were red and frantic as he watched Guo Mo chop off his head with the big knife.

With a muffled sound of "boom", Guo Mo twisted the blade at the last moment when the big knife hit Zhang Bu's neck, and hit Zhang Bu's head hard with the back of the knife.With this knock, Zhang Bu immediately turned into a rolling gourd, his eyes immediately turned black, and everything in the outside world seemed to disappear, he could neither see nor hear.

"Take this person down for me." Pei Zheng said leisurely at this time, and at the same time put the long sword in his hand, which was already sweating with sweat, back into the scabbard.

Hou San and those people had obviously cooperated for a long time. Before Pei Zheng could finish his sentence, those people had already rushed over with the rope in their hands. top of wooden pillars.

They were fighting so lively up there, no matter how discerning Huangfufu and the others were down there, there were immediately clamor and applause.

Zhao Wang Changshi Zhang Lin turned his head and rode on the horse and shouted at the top of the city wall: "The empress Jia went against the law and killed the prince. We are following the order of King Zhao to enter the city and abolish Empress Jia. His Royal Highness Zhao has an order. No matter who you are, no matter whether you belonged to Queen Jia's party or not, as long as you turn back and surrender now, you will not be blamed for the past. But if you insist on going your own way and follow Queen Jia to do the same thing, you will be accomplices in the crime. The soldiers on the city wall, no matter who they are, as long as they can open the city gate, they will be fine. Feng Tinghou!"

But before Zhang Lin finished speaking, Zhang Bu had already been knocked to the ground by Guo Mo, and in a blink of an eye he was tied to the wooden pillar specially used for beheading on the city wall, causing Zhang Lin, Huangfufu and others to look at each other again stand up.

The city wall of Shangluo is so big and majestic, without the internal response to open the door, it would be impossible to attack by force no matter what.

Pei Zheng looked at Zhang Bu who was tied to the pillar with his head drooping motionless as if he was dead, and he couldn't help sneering when he heard Zhang Lin's Zhou shouting outside the city wall.Pei Zheng was very satisfied that Guo Mo hadn't beheaded Zhang Bu in the first place. If it wasn't for the fear of damaging the morale of the army, he would have almost cried out just now before Guo Mo saw Zhang Bu's neck.

Morale can only be boosted but not discouraged.

The children of Zhou family's aristocratic family like Pei Zheng have been familiar with military books since they were young, so they naturally understand this in their hearts.If Guo Mo had beheaded Zhang Bu at that time, Pei Zheng would not have made a sound, even if he would feel very sorry.The enemy is now, for a right-hand man like Guo Mo, Pei Zhengxing should try his best to mobilize his positive emotions, instead of stopping him at every turn and affecting the other party, making the other party shy away from the next action and affecting their performance .

Pei Zheng has the style of a famous general. This is a comment Wang Yan made to Pei Zheng back then.

Pei Zheng is very Zhou Ao, but he has always hidden this Zhou Ao very well in front of his sergeants.He also didn't like dealing with these ordinary sergeants, but he could always get along with them.In the eyes of these ordinary sergeants, Colonel Pei is notoriously approachable.

Even if Zhang Bu suddenly made an assassination just now, Pei Zheng forgot to dodge in astonishment, but in the eyes of the surrounding soldiers, many people took it for granted that Colonel Pei was too courageous, and that Guo Mo would block Zhang Bu that sword.

The thoughts in their minds were: Tsk tsk tsk, Captain Pei is worthy of being born in a family of the Zhou family, his demeanor is indeed so elegant and refined.

"Wow." A basin of cold water was poured on his head, and Zhang Bu, who was almost in a coma, woke up with a jerk.

Pei Zheng looked at the so-called "Three Heroes of Hongdu" with both anger and admiration in his eyes.

What was exasperating was that this person almost let himself be humiliated for the first time in his life.

What I appreciate is that this person is so desperate and brave.

Pity.Pei Zheng sighed in his heart. Originally, such a good man would definitely be a capable member of the Jin Dynasty in the future, but he didn't want to die by his sword today.

But today I can't spare him.

Pei Zheng was clear in his heart, not to mention the people in Shangluo, even the soldiers under him, most of them were angry with Empress Jia, and more sympathized with the prince.What's more, that Zhang Lin just now promised a big reward loudly to lure these ordinary soldiers.

hateful!Pei Zheng couldn't help becoming angry when he thought of this, when will you, Zhang Lin, be able to promise the imperial court's award and the imperial court's title?
Not to mention you, Zhang Lin, the Marquis of Tinghou, even King Zhao is not qualified to make a promise.

Since ancient times, this kind of nobility can only be granted to the emperor and the court.

Thinking of this, Pei Zheng couldn't help feeling a dull pain in his heart.

These people, you are committing a crime.You are trying to destroy the Dajin system.

Everyone said that Shen Xiu and Zhang Lin, the right-hand men of King Zhao, were the most villainous shepherds, who could disregard all customs and systems in order to achieve their own goals.Looking at it today, it really is.

A person from a poor family cannot occupy the position of the three princes and nine ministers.This is a sentence that the second-rank purple-clothed cultivator of their Pei family often talks about.

He never took it seriously, and he often retorted inwardly: Zhang Hua and Zhang Sikong also came from a poor family.But with all his talents and skills, as well as his moral level, he is a model of Dajin monks.

Zhang Hua and Zhang Sikong are an exception, Pei Zheng sighed in his heart at this moment, most of those from poor families only recognize benefits, not rules.

At this moment, Zhang Bu's head is so important.

Pei Zheng needed to chop off Zhang Bu's head to frighten his ordinary soldiers.When the war is imminent, killing people to build power is the most common method.Pei Zheng was originally reluctant to use this method, but now he has to.

"Zhang Bu, do you have any last words to say?" Pei Zheng asked coldly without any emotion in his tone after he had made up his mind.

"Last words?" Zhang Bu, whose head was still dripping with blood, was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly, he wanted to try to raise his head.It's just that the pillar at the back blocked it emotionlessly, so that he could only look at it head-on.He struggled a few times and found that the struggle was so weak and useless.

He could no longer feel pain, or even despair, but what he could feel was still unwillingness.

"Zhang Bu only wished he hadn't been able to cut off the head of the captain. This is Zhang Bu's last words." When he said this, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.At this moment, his whole body was covered with blood from head to toe, and most of the blood of the classmate surnamed Liu whose head had been beheaded by him came from his own body.On the head, in the mouth, and on the thighs, the eye-catching blood red dyed the originally beautiful and clean brocade robe on his body.

As soon as he opened his mouth, suddenly there seemed to be countless words in his stomach that he wanted to say, so he continued to say loudly: "Master Captain, Zhang Bu, I will go ahead, but Lord Captain may arrive later. I think you will too I know it well, who else in Shangluo is on the side of Queen Jia now? The captain is so talented, why is he so obsessed with guarding this city gate for Queen Jia? Zhang Bu’s parents died early, so he can go to this day , This is all the grace of the imperial court, and it is all the grace of the emperor of Jin. The kindness received by others should also be repaid by the spring. Zhang Bu is not a member of the Zhou family, and Zhang Bu is just a son of a poor family. Family relatives, no manor title. But I have a heart of loyalty and patriotism. Empress Jia has been married to this point, and everyone can punish him. Let alone one life of my Zhangbu, it is ten or eight lives. What do I have to do? Rare? When a man lives in the world, he should be upright and upright, he should know how to repay his kindness, he should be loyal to the monarch, and he should be filial to his parents. I, Zhang Bu, died today in the affairs of the king. Why do I regret it? I am afraid of you, the captain, for the sake of the empress Jia Go against the grain, you can kill me, Zhang Bu, and you can kill so many people in Shangluo who want to kill Empress Jia?"

"Bold, what nonsense!" Pei Zheng was furious when he heard Zhang Bu's words, and shouted sharply, "Guo Mo, cut off this man's head, and I will use him to sacrifice the flag."

"Yes, my lord!"

Guo Mo, who had been standing by the side for a long time, swung his knife suddenly, a human head rolled cleanly to the ground with the incomparably sharp blade, and a stream of blood spurted out from the severed cavity.

The morning sun that just rose from the east just tore through the morning glow in the sky, and the sun shone on the blood, revealing a trace of desolate beauty.

Everyone was stunned.

Zhang Bu was stunned.

Guo Mo's knife actually cut off the head of the unsuspecting Chengmen school captain Pei Zheng.

Prince Zhao's son, Huangfu Fu, rode on his charcoal-like Zhou Dajun horse, and stopped by the lowered suspension bridge.He raised his head and looked at the head that had just been hung on the city wall. The blood on that head hadn't completely dripped dry, and a drop of blood was blown by the wind and scattered into countless small dots.Huangfufu felt a slight chill on his face, he knew that it was Pei Zheng's blood spilled on his face.

He didn't wipe.

Two days ago, this person had a drink with him. This person is personable and has seen others.The two have known each other for more than ten years, and they both value each other's talent and personality very much, and they both regard each other as close friends.

And now the head of this confidant is hanging on the city wall of this week, and the eyes full of wisdom in the past have long lost any expression at this time.
