Chapter 544 Why is Hu laughing?
Chapter 544: Why is Qianhu laughing?
Pei Yuan was thinking about tomorrow's affairs, so he went to bed early after dinner to rest up.
After Chen Xinjian came back, he heard that Captain Pei had already gone to bed, so he did not report anything and returned to his duty room with mixed feelings.
Early the next morning, the Jinyiwei in the Qianhu Suo heard about the lively incident yesterday and gathered at the gatehouse, whispering to each other.
Many people were discussing enthusiastically the duel between Captain Pei and Jiang Bin today.
For well-known considerations, everyone expressed their willingness to believe in Pei Qianhu's strength and showed no regard for the so-called No. 1 general.
Those who had experienced the life and death battles with Pei Yuan last year in the Qianhu Suo either stayed with Pei Yuan as his close followers or were sent to local areas to help seize military power. Now, a large number of the Jinyiwei on duty in Zhihua Temple were replaced by the remaining soldiers.
Chen Xinjian listened for a while, then with a wicked smile, he discussed it with Cen Meng, and the two of them teamed up to be the banker and start a gambling game.
After the two generals repeatedly stated that they would never inform on the secret, everyone placed their bets honestly.
Fortunately, there were not many government offices that had business dealings with Qianhu, and Zhihua Temple was relatively secretive, so not many people came to watch the fun.
Lu Ting, Li Shishi, Wei Ne, Zang Xian and others sent their trusted confidants to inquire.
Xiao Yan and his son came in person to help Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan had a good sleep and ate a lot, then he went to the hall contentedly and called people to ask about things.
First, I asked about Jiang Bin's situation.
Chen Xinjian had someone watching over there early in the morning. Seeing Pei Yuan asking, he quickly replied, "Captain, after Jiang Bin made a scene yesterday, Shen Zhou left in anger not long after entering the mansion. Li Cong also came over later, but he couldn't even get into Jiang Bin's house."
Pei Yuan nodded, indicating that he understood.
With Jiang Bin being lured out of the mansion, the only stakeholders in the whole incident were Jiang Bin and Pei Yuan.
The border troops' plan to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble completely failed. At the same time, they had to quickly inform Xuanfu to prevent them from misjudging and taking military risks for an excuse that had already been exposed.
The Jinyiwei cannot be said to be the winning party.
In this farce, the Jinyiwei clearly had the home advantage, with a total military force far greater than that of the four outer armies, and they also had the support of many Shangzhi Qinjunwei. However, they could only watch the border troops rampant in the capital and let the situation get out of control.
This made Zhu Houzhao greatly disappointed with the bloodiness and fighting power of the Jinyiwei.
Although the fight between Pei Yuan and Jiang Bin is irrelevant to the overall situation and is only a minor aftermath, as the ending of the entire incident, the performance of the two can largely determine the final outcome of the matter.
Pei Yuan asked again, "Has Jiang Bin left yet?"
Chen Xinjian said, "Not yet."
Pei Yuan, who was hanging up, was in a better mood, "It's okay, we are not in a hurry."
Then he asked, "How is the situation at Da Ci'en Temple?"
Chen Xinjian replied, "Since early in the morning, people have been waiting to watch, including some nobles and their families. In addition, there are some gangsters who are mixed in, causing chaos there."
Pei Yuan was more concerned about safety, so he asked, "What about the four outer armies? Are there any movements?"
Chen Xinjian knew what Pei Yuan meant, so he said, "Indeed, a small number of people left Yongshou Marquis's Mansion in advance and went to Da Ci'en Temple. But those people were not carrying weapons, and they looked like they were stalking."
"I have already asked Captain Tantai to lead his officers to set up an ambush in advance."
"Besides, the Da Ci'en Temple next to us is our territory, and we have some people hiding there. If the captain feels that something is not right, he can retreat to the Da Ci'en Temple first. Then, Taoist Zhenji will come to support us."
Pei Yuan was very satisfied after hearing this, and praised in front of everyone, "I have a strong heart, so I have nothing to worry about."
Pei Yuan had an idea in mind, so he called each family member over and comforted them.
When he saw Xiao Yan, he also briefly mentioned Li Zhang to him. Xiao Yan was very impressed by Li Zhang and immediately said, "This man has been following my uncle for a long time and has always been loyal and reliable."
Pei Yuan was not sure whether there would be any setbacks in the matter he entrusted Li Zhang to do, but nothing is absolute in this world, and there is always a time to gamble.
Pei Yuan's letter of challenge only said that the battle would take place today, but did not specify a specific time.
Both sides wanted to go later so that they could show off and gain some psychological advantage.
As a result, it was almost noon when people at Da Ci'en Temple started cursing and swearing, but the two people who were about to fight were still silent.
Pei Yuan was calm and composed, and continued to slowly endure Jiang Bin.
Unexpectedly, just after lunch, Yin Sheng, the eunuch from the Imperial Household Department, came to him.
When Pei Yuan heard that Yin Sheng was coming, thinking about this guy's previous deliberate attempts to show goodwill, he quickly stood up to greet him.
But Yin Sheng asked helplessly, "Are you and Jiang Bin going to fight or not? The emperor is waiting impatiently."
Pei Yuan cursed in his heart, it was time for you, the emperor, to come out and suppress the situation but you didn't say a word. Now you are here to watch the fun and you are standing in the front row.
Why didn’t Zhu Houzhao just die?
After this incident, Pei Yuan's last bit of guilt towards Zhu Houzhao was completely gone.
Since Zhu Houzhao had already asked someone to urge him, Pei Yuan naturally could not delay any longer. He immediately packed his things and headed towards Da Ci'en Temple with his men in a murderous manner.
Xiao Yan and his son wanted to go to express their intention of "advancing and retreating together, sharing honor and disgrace", but Pei Yuan was infiltrating the inner palace in full swing and did not want to reveal to outsiders that his relationship with the Xiao family had reached this point.
Therefore, the Xiao family father and son could only go to Da Ci'en Temple on their own to watch this rare excitement.
On the way, a Jinyiwei who was watching over there came running breathlessly to report, "Captain! Jiang Bin's horse is fast, he has arrived!"
Pei Yuan waved his hand to indicate that he understood.
As we got closer to Zhihua Temple, we saw more and more people on the streets, almost crowding the roads leading to Da Ci'en Temple.
Chen Xinjian originally wanted to step forward and drive them away, asking them to make way for him. However, when he saw the crowds of people cursing and talking about Jiang Bin and Pei Yuan, he suddenly became a little timid.
Seeing this, Pei Yuan did not dare to offend the public.
So Captain Pei, who was originally in a threatening manner, quickly signaled to his subordinates and lowered his head to squeeze into the crowd.
Chen Xinjian observed for a while, then whispered to Pei Yuan worriedly, "Although we came late, we did not overwhelm the other side in terms of momentum. Instead, Jiang Bin took advantage of the situation and took the initiative."
Pei Yuan did not respond, but silently thought about how to respond later.
When the space ahead was clear, Pei Yuan saw Jiang Bin waiting in the open space and suddenly laughed out loud with his head raised.
Chen Xinjian and Cen Lang were both surprised, "Why is the captain laughing?"
Pei Yuan said immediately, "Shan Xiao Li Cong is unwise, and Shen Zhou is not smart. The two of them asked Jiang Bin to ride first after receiving the order. Although they were able to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out, they were scolded for an extra quarter of an hour."
Chen Xinjian and Cen Lang looked carefully and saw that Jiang Bin was furious. Sometimes he was swearing at others and sometimes he was threatening with his arms. Judging from his posture, if there was not a tough battle to be fought later, there might be another fight.
Seeing this, the two men didn't dare to flatter the man forcefully because there were other people around.
Fortunately, Pei Yuan didn't care about these things. He threw his cloak to the two of them and strode into the field. This was Pei Yuan's handsome appearance, but unfortunately everyone was scolding Jiang Bin at the moment, so not much was seen.
But despite this, Pei Yuan's big stride forward still attracted the attention of people nearby.
Those people didn't recognize Pei Yuan, but given the situation and the atmosphere, they all came to their senses.
Everyone shouted, "The one taking off his clothes is Pei Yuan!"
"The one taking off his clothes is Pei Yuan!"
"Pei Yuan is here!"
As soon as the shout came from this side, the people from the four outer armies who were ambushing in the crowd also shouted, alerting the furious Jiang Bin in the field.
"Pei Yuan is here!"
"Pei Yuan is here!"
Jiang Bin was like a vicious dog that had heard a signal. He immediately steadied himself and looked towards Pei Yuan fiercely!
He was tall and strong, with a hideous scar on his face. When he looked at Pei Yuan intently, even his gaze seemed to be filled with a cannibalistic oppressive force.
Pei Yuan was not panicked at all, but slowed down his pace bit by bit.
Pei Yuan looked relaxed, but he was actually prepared to respond to a fight in an instant.
His waist was slightly bent, his body was like a bear, and he had his arms outstretched as if he was about to pounce on a tiger to fight.
Jiang Bin stared at Pei Yuan and shouted, "Pei Yuan!"
This shout was like a thunderclap in the sky. The penetrating power and oppressive feeling in it made those who had been shouting and cursing before feel palpitations. Their faces turned pale and they swallowed back the words they were about to say.
The originally noisy place suddenly became silent.
Pei Yuan had no intention of competing with Jiang Bin. Instead, he sneered, "Didn't I beat you to death? Why are you showing up now instead of being a coward?"
Jiang Bin was already irritated by the previous chaotic insults, and now he was full of murderous intent. Without saying anything else, he rushed directly towards Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan listened to the heavy and fast footsteps and didn't dare to let him show his momentum like that. In a flash, he also reacted and rushed towards him with the same ferocity!
Seeing these two sturdy men collide with each other like wild beasts and start fighting, the nobles, their families, and the onlookers, who had been frightened and dared not make a sound, all burst into loud shouts.
The last time Pei Yuan fought Jiang Bin, he felt that he might be inferior to a powerful general like Jiang Bin.
This time, he attacked fiercely and resisted Jiang Bin's charge. After a fierce fight with fists and flesh, he was immediately at a disadvantage.
Jiang Bin was filled with hatred, and his fists were fast and fierce. He did not dodge or evade when Pei Yuan counterattacked.
Pei Yuan knew the gap between the two sides. Although he had been bluffing just now, he remained calm the whole time.
He knew very well that if he wanted to equalize the disadvantage or even counterattack, he had to at least wait until the first time that the passive skill took effect.
Pei Yuan deliberately pulled Jiang Bin to fight, and would rather take a few more hits than try to slow down Jiang Bin's attack rhythm.
The two of them quickly fought from the center of the open space outside the Da Ci'en Temple to the edge of the open space.
Some idle people who were watching the fun there fled away.
Pei Yuan, who was already at a clear disadvantage, didn't care about his embarrassment and randomly grabbed the tables, chairs and curtains left behind by those people and threw them at Jiang Bin.
Jiang Bin did not dodge or evade, and smashed them all.
The onlookers looked at him with venomous eyes, and someone immediately shouted, "Pei Yuan is dying!"
It was like a slogan was rang out, and many people shouted excitedly.
"Pei Yuan is dying!"
"He's going to be beaten to death by Jiang Bin!"
Jiang Bin, who was fighting with Pei Yuan, naturally noticed Pei Yuan's fatigue. He stared at Pei Yuan with bloodshot eyes and a vicious and ferocious smile on his face, "Pei Yuan! Today I will beat you to pieces!"
As he said this, he still rushed forward like a tiger and delivered a fierce punch directly to Pei Yuan's chest.
Pei Yuan did not dodge this time, but threw the same punch back fiercely, "Get out!"
Jiang Bin's eyes showed ecstasy. He was about to see Pei Yuan's tendons and bones broken by his punch, but he felt a surge of power coming from his arm.
He lost his balance for a moment and was knocked back two steps.
Jiang Bin felt the splitting pain in his hand, gritted his teeth in surprise and said, "You?!"
However, Pei Yuan seemed to be in poor condition as well. He retreated and did not take the opportunity to attack.
Jiang Bin's mind raced, thinking that Pei Yuan was going to fight to the death. If it were any other time, he should have held him back a little to let off some steam, and then directly blew Pei Yuan up in one breath.
But at this moment, Jiang Bin was holding a grudge in his heart, and he wanted to use his strength to bully Pei Yuan to death.
Jiang Bin clenched his fists, trying to ease the pain in his hands while looking ready to pounce.
As Pei Yuan expected, his rhythm was disrupted and he turned to defense.
Jiang Bin grinned and said, "Today, I will make you die with a sincere heart."
As he said this, he rushed forward again and started fighting with Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan's heart was pounding violently, the veins on his forehead were bulging, and the muscles in his body were twisting like living things, desperately squeezing out the power within.
Faced with such a difficult situation, Pei Yuan finally managed to delay until his passive skill was triggered at the most critical moment!
——"The poorer you are, the stronger you become!"
As he knocked Jiang Bin away with one punch, Pei Yuan's strength became stronger and stronger.
He was like a wild beast whose sanity was slowly disintegrating. The strong stimulation was stimulating his body desperately to smash the enemy in front of him.
Pei Yuan couldn't help but want to roar and howl to release his helpless emotions.
Jiang Bin called at this moment and instantly became an outlet for those emotions and power.
The two men's strong fists collided, and they were hit from time to time. Sometimes they vomited blood and retreated, and sometimes they rushed forward again.
When everyone saw these two strong men fighting in the dust like the devil King Kong, they were dazzled for a moment.
Everyone was originally just there to watch the fun, but now seeing the pure fight of strength and the life-and-death struggle with fists and fists, no one dared to say anything for a moment.
There were only scattered thoughts in everyone's mind.
So this is Jiang Bin!
So this is Pei Yuan!
All the previous jokes about the two of them seemed so thin and ridiculous in the face of such pure power.
