Qin Xiao didn't speak, he heard a voice behind him: "Hey, you are here, this is great." The voice was filled with excitement.

Qin Xiao doesn't have to look back to know who came.

Hearing the sound of footsteps running over, Qin Xiao turned to look and saw that the girl Jiaoli's face was full of joy: "Let’s see again, do you live near here?" Seeing the man in the hat, he looked Startled, frowned Xiu eyebrows.

Qin Xiao said in a bad mood: "It's dark. If you are a girl who doesn't go back, why are you still wandering in the street? Don't you know that Turtle City is mixed with fish and dragons, and many bad people are in trouble?"

"Bad guy?" The girl looked around: "I didn't see the bad guy."

The man in the hat finally said: "The bad guy he said is me."

The girl stunned: "You?"

The man in the hat stared at Qin Xiao and said: "You followed me because I followed her?"

When Qin Xiao saw that the other party had already said it was broken, he didn't circumscribe, and said directly: "Yes, at this night, you are sneaking behind a girl, what do you intend to do?"

"Why did I follow her, what do you do?" The man in the hat said coldly.

Qin Xiao said indifferently: "Anyone who has a bad heart in Guicheng has something to do with the government." He glanced at the girl and said: "You have been following this girl, of course I can't ignore it."

"Are you from the government?"

Qin Xiao did not conceal: "I am from the captain's mansion."

Although there are many mischievous prodigal rangers in Turtle City, most people still dare not fight against the captain's mansion.

Shortly after Han Yunong first came to Turtle City, after two swordsmen killed people on the streets of Turtle City, they escaped from Turtle City on horseback, but within three days, Han Yunong not only arrested the two swordsmen, but also took more than ten of them. All the accomplices were caught back, and half of them had their heads cut off in public after half a month.

For this case, the Turtle City Captain Mansion, which was once ignored or even made fun of by many people, immediately shocked Zhen County. In addition to the people of Zhenhou Mansion, the people of Guicheng City were still heartened when they saw the people of the Captain Mansion. In awe.

Qin Xiao naturally knows the weight of the captain's mansion, so to cast the name of the captain's mansion, he also hopes that the other party will retire.

"It turned out to be from the captain's mansion." The man in the hat smiled on his lips: "I followed her, so you want to take care of this?"

"I'll take care of it." Qin Xiao stared at the man's eyes.

The man in the hat chuckles and said: "If I say you can't control this matter, or that it will cause you big trouble if you manage this matter, do you still want to control it?"

Qin Xiao nodded and said: "Be concerned, I am from the captain's mansion. As long as someone makes trouble in the turtle city, I will take care of it."

"You are young, and your tone is not small." The man in the hat smiled and said: "But it is considered to be conscientious, Han Yunong is very good at training his opponents."

"Who...Who are you?" Qin Xiao was startled: "Do you know Master Du Wei?"

The man in the hat didn't say much, and said to the girl: "It's late, it's time to go back."

The girl glanced at Qin Xiao, then said helplessly: "Uncle Wen, have you been following me?"

"This is outside the customs." The man in the hat sighed: "You can't do whatever you want in any place. This little guy is right. The turtle city is mixed with fish and dragons, and people's hearts are unpredictable. If you are really targeted by evil people, then It’s not a good thing."

Qin Xiao's expression suddenly became wonderful, he looked at the girl, and then at the Dou Li, and finally smiled bitterly: "Do you know?"

He had always thought that the man in the hat was stalking the girl. He didn't have any good intentions. He was worried about the girl's safety. Then he followed him. Who knew that the two people knew each other.

It was just a moment of relief. This girl was obviously a child of a large family from outside the Guan. In this mixed turtle city, she was wandering in the city by herself. Of course, her family was not at ease and sent someone to protect secretly. This is really natural. Things.

The man in the hat was obviously protecting the girl secretly, but he regarded him as a bad person. Such a misunderstanding made Qin Xiao quite embarrassed.

Since the man in the hat was not malicious towards the girl, Qin Xiao was relieved.

"This is Uncle Wen." The girl hurriedly said: "By the way, let's say it at the noodle shop. If we can see you again, I will pay you back." Xiang Douli said humanely: "Uncle Wen, do you have any money? "

The man in the hat didn't talk nonsense, and took a silver coin and threw it to Qin Xiao. To say nothing, there are four or five taels, but this action is like a reward.

Qin Xiao took it in his hand and said to the girl: "You know what you want to do, but your uncle Wen doesn't seem to be polite." He actually threw the silver back to the man in the hat.

The man in the hat took the silver, his brows clenched, and Qin Xiao already said: "I know you are not an ordinary citizen, but even if you are the king of heaven, when repaying others, no matter what the identity of the other person, you should respond. Some respect." Xiang girl said: "This meeting is not counted, if there is another time, you will pay me back." But no longer said a word, turned and left.

The girl said anxiously: "I don't know your name yet, what is your name?"

Qin Xiao ignored the reason, and the girl said again: "My name is Xiahou Qingcheng, you...!" Before finishing speaking, the man in Douli said in a deep voice, "Qingcheng!"

Xiahou Qingcheng didn't dare to say anything behind him. Watching Qin Xiao walk away, he said anxiously: "Uncle Wen, he...is he angry?"

Looking at Qin Xiao's back gradually disappearing into the night, Uncle Dou Li Wenwen murmured: "Interesting." Then he turned to Xiahou Qingcheng, and said coldly: "The old man has asked you to go to Xiling. Follow the arrangement, and you promised, why sneak out?"

Xiahou Qingcheng has already stepped forward and grabbed one of Uncle Wen's arm, and said coquettishly: "Uncle Wen, it's hard to come out. It's really boring to stay in the house all day, so don't blame me. "

"Why do I blame you?" The man in the hat sighed, "I will inevitably be reprimanded by the old man when I go back. Just listen. But although Xiling is nominally the territory of my Datang, it is not completely influenced by my Datang. Everyone has the control of this place, and it is very dangerous. It is no better than in the customs, you must be careful everywhere."

Xiahou Qingcheng blinked and said in amazement: "Uncle Wen, you said that Xiling is not the territory of the Tang Dynasty? This...what is the reason? Are the officials of Xiling all sent by the court?" /

Tou Li said humanely: "You only need to know that Xiling is a dangerous place, don't ask too much. The old man must be waiting for you, let's go back earlier."

"No, Uncle Wen, tell me what is going on." Xiahou Qingcheng shook Dou Li's arm: "If you don't tell me, I won't go back."

The people in Dou Li seemed helpless towards Xiahou Qingcheng, and said with a wry smile: "In the year that the saint became king, Murong in southern Xinjiang rebelled, northward

The Tusun people are in prison, the empire is under attack from north to south, the saints dispatch troops and generals, internally suppress rebellion, and externally resist the enemy. You should know about this? "While speaking, he turned and walked slowly.

Xiahou Qingcheng immediately followed Dou Liren and said softly: "I heard about that. I was just born that year."

"Not bad." Dou Li said humanely: "At that time, Xiling was naturally the territory of my Datang Empire. The court established the Xiling Duhu Mansion here, and the people here are all the people of my Datang." Wei Wei After a meal, he continued: "The Wutuo people outside the Kunlun Pass saw that I was trapped in the Tang Dynasty. They gathered tens of thousands of iron knights and broke in. Before this, the Wutuo people sent envoys to Kyoto for pilgrimage every year, King Wutuo Khan. Even more professed to be ministers, the trade between the two countries is also very prosperous, and the court never thought that the Utuo people would take advantage of others."

"Those ungrateful bad guys." Xiahou Qingcheng said bitterly.

"The Wutuo Khanate was founded only a few decades ago. The founding Khan King has admiration for me. The two countries have been in a relationship for decades, and there has never been a war between swords and soldiers. Therefore, there are not many officers and soldiers guarding Xiling. The northern Tusun people The offensive was fierce, and the imperial court transferred some soldiers and horses from Xiling, leaving only five thousand soldiers and horses to garrison Xiling." The Dou Li said as he walked: "King Wutuo Khan personally led tens of thousands of cavalry into the pass, and he was almost invincible at the beginning. In order to attack the city, the officers and soldiers of the Duhu Mansion continued to retreat, first to consume the enemy's vigor, and secondly to buy time to recruit soldiers and horses and prepare money and food."

Xiahou Qingcheng asked urgently: "What happened then?"

"Everywhere, there are gate clans, and the same is true in Xiling." The Dou Li said slowly: "At that time there were three gate clans in Xiling, the Zhen clan, Fan clan and Yuwen clan. They were very powerful in Xiling and were born and raised. There are countless clan families in Xiling. If you want to stabilize Xiling, you must first stabilize the three main gates, and the court has always comforted them."

"Zhen's is Chang Xinhou, right?" Xiahou Qingcheng asked.

The Douli man nodded and continued: "Xiling guard house Xia Duhu ordered the Xiling gate clan to assemble young and strong to hoard food and grass. That is to stand by and wait for help. But Xia Duhu did not expect that the Xiling gate clan would sit and watch in times of crisis. Ignore them and defend each side. Not only did they fail to support the front line, but they also cut off food and grass. All the guards were fighting alone, and the situation was at stake."

Xiahou Qingcheng’s beautiful face was full of anger, and he followed the Dou Liren and asked: "How dare they do this? The court...The court should have cut their heads off."

"At that time, the fighting in the southern and northern borders was raging, and the court was unable to dispatch troops and horses to reinforce it." The Dou Li sighed, "But Xiling must never fall into the hands of the Wutuo people. Sage guesses. When it came to the thoughts of the Xiling clan, the court even suspected that the Wu Tuo people had promised the Xiling clan in private. No matter who controlled Xiling, these people were still deeply rooted in Xiling. But at that time, the court needed the Xiling clan’s power to resist Wu. Tuo people, so the saint sent a person to Xiling. A few days after that person came to Xiling, the Xiling gate clergy began to support the Duhu army. As a result, the situation improved slightly."

Xiahou Qingcheng blinked his eyes and asked, "Who is it sent? Why did those patriarchs suddenly support the Duhu Army?"

"At that time, many people only thought that the Xiling Gatelord received the saint’s will, and they were afraid." Douli said: "Although the situation has improved slightly, the strength of Wutuo's iron cavalry is still far higher than that of the guardian army until Xueye captures Khan, and this really turned the situation around."
