Before Qin Xiao could speak, he heard a voice behind him: "Hey, you're here, it's great." The voice was full of excitement.

Qin Xiao didn't have to look back to know who was coming.

Hearing the sound of footsteps running over, Qin Xiao turned his head to look and saw that the girl's delicate face was full of joy: "Let's see each other again, do you live around here?" When he saw the hat-bearer, he looked stunned and frowned.

Qin Xiao said angrily: "It's dark, why are you still wandering around the street if you don't go back to a girl's house?" Don't you know that Turtle City is mixed, and many bad guys have bad intentions? ”

"Bad guys?" The girl looked around, "I don't see any bad guys." ”

The hat-bearer finally said, "I'm the bad guy he said." ”

The girl was stunned and said, "You? ”

The hat man stared at Qin Xiao and said, "You are following me because I am following her?" ”

Qin Xiao saw that the other party had already said it, and he didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "Yes, at such a late hour, you sneakily followed behind a girl, what do you want?" ”

"What do I have to do with you if I follow her?" The hat-to-hat man said coldly.

Qin Xiao said lightly: "Anyone who has bad intentions in Turtle City has something to do with the government. Glancing at the girl, he said, "You have been following this girl, of course I can't turn a blind eye." ”

"You're from the government?"

Qin Xiao didn't hide it: "I'm from the Duwei Mansion." ”

Although there are many unscrupulous prodigal rangers in Turtle City, most people still dare not make enemies of the Governor's Mansion.

Not long after Han Yunong first came to Turtle City, two swordsmen killed people on the street in Turtle City, and escaped from Turtle City on horseback, but within three days, Han Yunong not only arrested the two swordsmen, but also arrested more than ten of their accomplices, and after half a month, half of them were beheaded in public.

Therefore, in this case, the Turtle City Governor's Mansion, which was once ignored and even ridiculed by many people, immediately shocked Zhen County, except for the people of the Zhen Hou Mansion, the people of Turtle City were still in awe when they saw the people of the Governor's Mansion.

Qin Xiao naturally knew the weight of the Duwei Mansion, so he threw out the name of the Duwei Mansion, hoping that the other party would retreat in the face of difficulties.

"It turned out to be someone from the Governor's Mansion." The hat man smiled on his lips: "I'm following her, so you want to take care of this?" ”

"I've got you covered." Qin Xiao stared at the man's eyes.

The hatsman chuckled and said, "If I say that you can't take care of this matter, or that taking care of this matter will bring you big trouble, do you still want to care?" ”

Qin Xiao nodded and said: "Take care of it, I am a person from the Duwei Mansion, as long as someone makes trouble in Turtle City and harms people, I will take care of it." ”

"I'm young, and my breath is not small." The hatsman smiled: "But it can be regarded as conscientious, Han Yunong is very good at training his subordinates." ”

"You..... Who are you? Qin Xiao was stunned: "Do you know Lord Duwei?" ”

The hat-bearer didn't say much, but said to the girl, "It's late, it's time to go back." ”

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

"This is Kanwai." The hat-bearer sighed, "It's not like you can do whatever you want anywhere. What this deserter said is not wrong, Turtle City is mixed, people's hearts are unpredictable, if it is really targeted by the wicked, it is not a good thing. ”

Qin Xiao's expression suddenly became exciting, he looked at the girl, then at the hat, and finally smiled bitterly: "You know?" ”

He had always thought that the hat man was following the girl, and he didn't have any good intentions, and he was worried about the girl's safety, so he followed behind, but he knew that the two actually knew each other.

It's just that I was relieved in an instant, this girl is obviously the child of a big family from outside the Guan, in this mixed turtle city, walking around the city alone, of course her family is not at ease, and sends someone to protect it secretly, which is really a matter of course.

The hat-taker was obviously secretly protecting the girl, but he regarded him as a villain, so a misunderstanding really made Qin Xiao quite embarrassed.

But since the man with a hat had no ill will towards the girl, Qin Xiao was relieved.

"This is Uncle Wen." The girl hurriedly said: "By the way, we have agreed at the noodle restaurant, if we can see you again, I will pay you back." Xiang Lisa said, "Uncle Wen, do you have any silver?" ”

The hat man didn't talk nonsense, he took a piece of silver and threw it to Qin Xiao, to say the least, there were four or five taels, but this action was like rewarding his subordinates.

Qin Xiao took it in his hand and said to the girl: "You know how to repay your kindness, but this Uncle Wen of yours doesn't seem to know how to be polite. "He threw the money back to the hat-bearers.

The hat man took the silver, his brows tightened, and Qin Xiao had already said: "I know that you are not an ordinary person, but even if you are the king of heaven, when you repay others, no matter what the identity of the other party is, you should show due respect." Xiang said to the girl: "This meeting doesn't count, if there is a next time, you can return it to me." But he said no more, turned and left.

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

Qin Xiao ignored it, and the girl said: "My name is Xiahou Allure, you ......!" Before he finished speaking, the hat man had already shouted in a deep voice: "Allure!" ”

Xiahou didn't dare to say anything after the city, and when he saw Qin Xiao walking away, he said anxiously: "Uncle Wen, he ...... Is he angry? ”

Uncle Dou Liwen looked at Qin Xiao's back as he gradually disappeared into the night, and muttered, "Interesting." Then he turned his eyes to Xiahou Allure and said coldly: "The boss has instructed you to follow the arrangement in everything during your trip to Xiling, and you also agreed, why did you sneak out?" ”

Xiahou Chengcheng had already stepped forward to grab one of Uncle Wen's arms, and said coquettishly: "Uncle Wen, I finally came out once, I stayed in the house all day and couldn't come out, it was really boring, don't blame me." ”

"What do I blame you for?" The hat-bearer sighed: "When you go back, you will inevitably be reprimanded by the boss, you just listen." However, although Xiling is nominally the territory of my Datang, it is not completely under the control of my Datang, there are everyone here, and it is very dangerous, no better than in the Guannei, you have to be careful everywhere. ”

Xiahou Chengcheng blinked his eyes and said in surprise: "Uncle Wen, you said that Xiling is not the territory of the Tang Dynasty?" This..... Why is that? Aren't all the officials in Xiling sent by the imperial court? ”

Dou Lisa said: "As long as you know that Xiling is a dangerous place, you don't need to ask too much." The old man must be waiting for you, let's go back early. ”

"No, Uncle Wen, tell me what the hell is going on." Xiahou Chengcheng shook the arm of the hatholder: "If you don't say it, I won't go back." ”

The man seemed to be a little helpless about Xiahou Allure, and said with a wry smile: "In the year when the saint ascended the throne, Murong rebelled in the south of Xinjiang, the Tusun people in the north invaded the border, and the empire suffered from the north and south. As he spoke, he turned around and walked slowly.

Xiahou Chengcheng immediately followed the hat man and said softly: "I heard about that, I was just born that year. ”

"Not bad." Dou Lisa said: "At that time, Xiling was naturally the territory of my Tang Empire, and the imperial court set up the Xiling Protectorate here, and the people here were all my Tang people. After a slight pause, he continued: "The Wutuo people outside the Kunlun Pass saw that my Tang Dynasty was trapped, gathered tens of thousands of iron horsemen, and broke through the pass. Previously, the Vedic people would send envoys to Kyoto every year to make a pilgrimage, and the Vedic Khan even claimed to be his courtier, and the trade between the two countries was also very prosperous, and the court did not expect that the Vedic people would take advantage of the danger. ”

"Those ungrateful bad guys." Xiahou Allure hated and hated.

"The Vedic Khanate was founded only a few decades, the founding Khan had respect for my Tang Dynasty, the two countries have been friends for decades, and there has never been a dispute between swords and soldiers, so there are not many officers and soldiers guarding Xiling, and the Tusun people in the north are attacking fiercely, and the imperial court transferred some soldiers and horses from Xiling, leaving only 5,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Xiling." The man said as he walked: "The prince of the Udha Khan led tens of thousands of cavalry to kill in the pass, and at first he was almost invincible, attacking the city, and the officers and soldiers of the capital protectorate retreated continuously, one is to consume the enemy's spirit, and the other is to buy time to raise soldiers and horses on the spot and prepare money and food. ”

Xiahou Chengcheng asked anxiously, "What happened then?" ”

"Everywhere, there is a gate valve, and the same is true of Xiling." Dou Liren said slowly: "At that time, there were three major gate valves in Xiling, Zhen's, Fan's and Yuwen's, they were extremely powerful in Xiling, they were born and raised in Xiling's family, and there were countless Lang parties. ”

"Zhen is the Marquis of Changxin, right?" Xiahou Chengcheng asked.

The hatper nodded and continued: "Xiling Protector Xia Duhu ordered the Xiling Gate Valve to gather the young and strong to hoard grain and grass, which is to prepare to wait for reinforcements. But Xia Duhu didn't expect that at the moment of crisis, the Xiling Gate Lords would sit idly by, defending one side, not only did they not support the front line, but even the food and grass were cut off, and the Duhu army fell into a lonely battle, and the situation was in danger. ”

Xiahou Allcheng's beautiful face was full of anger, and he followed the hat man and asked, "How dare they do this?" Court..... The court should have their heads cut off. ”

"At that time, the war in the south and north was raging, and the imperial court was unable to send troops and horses to reinforcements." The hatsman sighed lightly: "But Xiling must not fall into the hands of the Vedas. The sage guessed the mind of the Xiling Gate Valve, and the court even suspected that the Wutuo people had promised something to the Xiling Gate Valve in private, no matter who controlled Xiling, these people were still deeply rooted in Xiling. However, at that time, the imperial court needed the strength of the Xiling Gate Valve to resist the Wutuo people, so the sage sent a person to Xiling, and a few days after the person came to Xiling, the Xiling Gate Valve began to support the Duhu army, so that the situation improved slightly. ”

Xiahou Qingcheng blinked his eyes and asked, "Who did you send?" Why did those gate lords suddenly come to the aid of the Metropolitan Protectors? ”

"At that time, many people only thought that the Xiling Gate Valve had received the will of the saint, and they were afraid." "Although the situation has improved slightly, the strength of the Wutuo Iron Cavalry is still far above the Duhu Army, and it was not until the capture of the Khan on a snowy night that the situation was truly reversed. ”
