The Golden Age

Before Qin Xiao spoke, he heard the voice coming from behind: "Hey, you are here, this is great." The voice showed excitement.

Qin Xiao does not have to look back to know who is coming.

Hearing the footsteps, Qin Xiao turned her head and looked around. She was delighted to see the girl’s beautiful face: "Let's see you again, do you live near here?" Seeing the Doujian, he looked startled and stunned. She raised her eyebrows.

Qin Xiao didn't have a good air: "It's getting dark. You don't go back to a girl's house, what are you doing on the street? Don't you know that the turtle city is mixed with fish and dragons, do many bad guys have mischief?"

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

Dou Liren finally said: "The bad guy he said is me."

The girl stunned: "You?"

Dou Liren stared at Qin Xiaodao: "You followed me because I followed her?"

Qin Xiao saw that the other party had already spoken, and did not turn around. He said directly: "Yes, so late, you are sneaking behind a girl, what is your intention?"

"I'm following her, what are you doing?" Doujia said coldly.

Qin Xiao said indifferently: "Anyone who has trouble with Guicheng has a relationship with the government." He glanced at the girl and said, "Of course you have followed this girl. I certainly can't ignore it."

"Are you from the mansion?"

Qin Xiao did not conceal: "I am from Duwei Mansion."

Although Guicheng has many improper prodigal rangers, most people still dare not fight against Duwei Mansion.

Not long after Han Yunong first came to Guicheng, two swordsmen drove out of Guicheng after killing people on the streets of Guicheng, but within three days, Han Yunong not only arrested the two swordsmen, but also arrested more than a dozen of their associates. Back, half a month later, half of them were chopped off in public.

Therefore, in this case, Guicheng Duwei Mansion, which was once ignored by many people and even made fun of it, was immediately shocked by Zhenjun County. In addition to the people of Zhenhou Mansion, the people of Guicheng City were still in awe when they saw the people of Duwei Mansion.

Qin Xiao naturally knows the weight of Duwei Mansion, so throwing out the name of Duwei Mansion also hopes that the other party will retreat in times of difficulty.

"It turned out to be from Duwei Mansion." Dou Liren smiled on his lips: "I follow her, so you want to take care of it?"

"I am in control." Qin Xiao stared at the man's eyes.

Dou Liren said with a chuckle: "If I say that you can't manage this matter, or that managing this matter will bring you a lot of trouble, do you still want to control it?"

Qin Xiao nodded and said, "To control, I am from Duwei Mansion. As long as someone makes trouble in Guicheng, I will control it."

"It's a young age, and the tone is not small." Dou Liren smiled: "But it is also due diligence. Han Yunong is very good at teaching his opponents."

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

Without saying a word, Doujia said to the girl: "It's too late, it's time to go back."

The girl glanced at Qin Xiao before she said helplessly: "Uncle Wen, have you followed me all the time?"

"This is outside the gate." Doujia sighed: "It's not that you can do whatever you want in this place. There is nothing wrong with this little messenger. The turtle town is mixed with fish and dragons, and the people's hearts are unpredictable. If it is really targeted by the wicked, it is nothing Good thing." Qin Xiao's expression suddenly became brighter. After looking at the girl and the Doujian, he finally smiled bitterly, "Do you know?"

He had always thought that the Doujians were following the girl, and he did not have any good intentions, worrying about the girl's safety, and then trailing behind, who knew that the two actually knew each other.

It was only a moment of relief in her heart that this girl was obviously a child of a large family from outside the customs. In this tortoise and tortoise mixed turtle city, she was traveling alone in the city. Of course, her family was not at ease and sent someone to protect it secretly. This is a matter of course.

Dou Liren obviously protects the girl secretly, but he regards him as a gangster. Such misunderstanding is really embarrassing to Qin Xiao.

But since the Douren people were not malicious to the girl, Qin Xiao was relieved.

"This is Uncle Wen." The girl busy said: "Yes, let's say it in the noodle shop. If I can see you again, I'll pay you back." Xiang Douji said: "Uncle Wen, do you have any money?"

Dou Liren is not nonsense. He took a piece of silver and threw it to Qin Xiao. There are also four or five or two, but this action is like giving a reward.

Qin Xiao took the hand and said to the girl: "You know the good news, but your uncle Wen doesn't seem to understand politeness." It was actually throwing the silver back to Douren.

Dou Liren took the silver and raised his eyebrows, Qin Xiao said: "I know you are not an ordinary people, but even if you are a king, when you repay others, no matter what your identity is, you should show the respect you deserve. "The girl said: "This meeting is not counted, if there is another time, you will give it back to me." But no longer say a word, turned and walked away.

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

Qin Xiao ignored it, and the girl said again: "My name is Xiahou Qingcheng, you...!" Not finished yet, Dou Liren stopped in a deep voice: "Qingcheng!"

The words behind Xiahou Qingcheng didn't dare to go on, watching Qin Xiao go away, anxiously said: "Uncle Wen, he... is he angry?"

Uncle Doujia looked at Qin Xiao’s disappearing figure in the night and muttered: "Interesting." Then he turned to Xiahou Qingcheng and said in a cold voice: "The old man told you that you must follow the arrangement for everything in Xiling, You also promised, why did you sneak out?"

Xiahou Qingcheng had already stepped forward and grabbed 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. It's really boring, don't blame me."

"I blame you for doing this?" Doujian sighed: "It's inevitable that you will be reprimanded by the elders when you go back, but you listen to it. However, although Xiling is nominally the territory of my Datang, it is not completely controlled by it Everyone here is very dangerous, no more careful than in the customs, everywhere."

Xiahou Qingcheng blinked and wondered: "Uncle Wen, do you say that Xiling is not the territory of Datang? What is the reason? Isn't Xiling officials all sent by the court?"

Dou Li said: "As long as you know that Xiling is a dangerous place, don't ask too much. The boss must be waiting for you, let's go back earlier."

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

The Doujians seemed helpless to Xiahou Qingcheng and smiled bitterly: "The year the saint ascended the throne, Murong rebelled in southern Xinjiang, the Tusons in the north bordered, and the empire was attacked by the north and the south. You should know, right?" During the talk, he turned and walked slowly.

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

"Good." Doujia said: "Xiling at that time was naturally the territory of my Datang Empire. The court established the Xiling Capital Guard House here, and the people here are all the people of Datang." He continued: "The Wu Tuo people outside the Kunlun Pass saw my Tang Dynasty trapped and assembled tens of thousands of iron riders to break through the barrier. Before that, the Wu Tuo people sent envoys to Kyoto to make pilgrimages every year. Officials, the trade between the two countries is also very prosperous, and the court did not expect the Wutu people to take advantage of people's danger."

"Those who are ungrateful." Xiahou Qingcheng said with hatred.

"The Wutuhan Kingdom was only a few decades old. The founding King Khan respected my great Tang. The two countries have been friends for decades, and there has never been a fight between swordsmen and soldiers. Therefore, there are not many officers and soldiers who guard Xiling. The imperial court transferred some soldiers and horses from Xiling, leaving only 5,000 soldiers and soldiers stationed in Xiling." The Doujians walked and said: "King Wu Tuohan led tens of thousands of cavalry soldiers into the gate. At the beginning, they were almost invincible. The officers and soldiers of the Hufu continued to retreat. One was to consume the enemy's strength, and the other was to buy time and recruit soldiers and horses to prepare money."

Xiahou Qingcheng asked anxiously: "How about later?"

"There are gates in every place, and so is Xiling." Doujia said slowly: "At that time, there were three gates in Xiling, Zhen, Fan, and Yuwen. They were extremely powerful in Xiling. They were born and raised in Xiling. There are countless Lang parties. To stabilize Xiling, we must first stabilize these three gates, and the court has always comforted them."

"Zhen is Changxinhou, right?" Xiahou Qingcheng asked.

The Doujia nodded and continued: "Xiling Metropolitan Xiling Metropolitan Government ordered the Xiling Gate Valves to gather the young and strong to accumulate grain and grass, and that was ready to stand by. But Xia Duhu did not expect that the Xiling Gate Valves would just sit idly by in times of crisis. Each defending party not only did not support the front line, but also cut off the grain and grass, all of them defending the army and fighting alone, the situation is at stake."

Xiahou Qingcheng's beautiful face was full of anger, and he followed the Doujians and asked, "How dare they do this? The court... The court should cut their heads."

"At that time, the fighting in southern Xinjiang and the north was fierce, and the court was unable to dispatch soldiers and horses to come in for reinforcements." Doujia sighed lightly: "But Xiling cannot fall into the hands of the Wu Tuo. The saint guessed that the Xiling gate valve In his mind, the imperial court even suspected that the Wutu people had promised to the Xiling Gate Valve in private. No matter who controlled the Xiling, this group of people was still deeply rooted in Xiling. However, at that time, the imperial court needed the power of the Xiling Gate Valve to resist the Wutu people, Therefore, the saint sent a person to Xiling. A few days after the man came to Xiling, the Xiling doormen began to support the Duhu army, and as a result, the situation improved slightly."

Xiahou Qingcheng blinked and asked, "Who sent it? Why did those doormen suddenly support the army?"

"At that time, many people only thought that the Xiling Gate Valve received the saint's will and was afraid." Doujia said: "Although the situation has improved slightly, Wu Tuo's strength is still far above the guards until Xueye captures Khan happened, which really reversed the situation."
