Before the unification of this continent, it was full of hunger, and tribes of all sizes fought all year round.

Located in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, there is a small tribe, that is, the Xuanyuan clan, the Xuanyuan clan lives on the Yellow River, the products are abundant, the people are prosperous, and it is the largest tribe in the entire Yellow River Basin. The Xuanyuan clan is born strong, and they are good at making tools, and they are never short of food.

Such a good place, naturally some people covet it, and the surrounding tribes start a war in order to seize the land of Heluo.

Although the Xuanyuan clan is strong, there is no choice but to resist the union of many tribes, so they have no choice but to move.

Later, the Xuanyuan clan produced a hero, brave and strategic, began to train soldiers, make weapons, and trained a strong army in just a few years.

The land of Heluo returned to the hands of the Xuanyuan clan, and after hundreds of years of development, they became more and more powerful, attracting many tribes to take refuge, and renamed the tribe Xia.

After learning that people in other places except Heluo were living in dire straits, the Xuanyuan clan went out of Heluo, and after decades, they finally completed the unification of the world.

The Xuanyuan clan ruled the world, established the Great Xia Empire in Heluo, and changed Heluo to Ningdu, which means that the people are peaceful.

The city wall of Ningdu has a history of more than 900 years, five zhang high, built of flat bricks, and traces of repair and reinforcement can still be seen from the mottled city wall.

The gurgling river surrounded the huge city of Ningdu, making Ningdu impregnable.

There are ten city gates in Ningdu, representing the thirteen generals who have made great contributions to the Xuanyuan clan's unification of the world.

Among them are Xu Dingshan, the ancestor of the King of Chu, Mu Xianyong, the ancestor of Beimeng, and Ming Cheng, the ancestor of the Zhongshan Ming clan.

The city wall is guarded by the Great Xia City Patrol Division, and the City Patrol Division has a unified name for the city patrol and is a three-grade military attaché; The four Sima who patrolled the city, from the rank of military officer of the third grade, respectively governed the four urban districts of Ningdu, but they were the same as the capital, directly obeying the emperor's orders and not being controlled by the capital.

In addition to these five chiefs, there are countless officials, large and small, including supervisors, guard envoys, palace guards, and captains, among which there are thirteen captains, with the rank of seven military attachés, who manage the thirteen city gates of Ningdu respectively.

The soldiers of the City Patrol Division are different from ordinary soldiers, their official titles and positions are hereditary, and what they learn is also a family tradition, if the soldiers of the City Patrol Division do not want to do it, then they have to let their own family children replace them.

In addition to the forbidden army in the palace of the Great Xia royal family, there are only soldiers from the City Patrol Division in Ningdu City, and soldiers of any other number are not allowed to enter Ningdu.

It can be said that in addition to the Great Xia royal family and the powerful Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, the power of the City Patrol Division is the strongest.

Ming Shiyin, the general of Yiwei, fled from Ningdu and transferred 100,000 elite soldiers from the border pass, and Chen Bing Ningdu. The City Patrol Division has 80,000 elite soldiers, and if the City Patrol Division obeys the orders of the Great Xia Imperial Family, then the Xuanyuan Clan will not compromise so easily.

After the Ming clan became the master of Ningdu, he also thought about bringing all the city patrol divisions under his command, but in addition to the intersection between the capital and the Ming clan, and they were willing to surrender to Ming Shiyin, the other four Simas belonged to other big families in Ningdu, and the Ming clan tried both soft and hard, but none of them worked.

Fortunately, they don't have the strength to unite against the Ming clan, so Zhongshan Guo has also turned a blind eye to the City Patrol Division over the years, as long as there is no conflict of interest, everyone can still live together calmly.

Pujiamen is located in the southeast of Ningdu, and most of the people who enter and exit here are more than 100 small counties and small towns outside Ningdu.

The convoy of the Huining Dart Bureau finally arrived at the foot of the Ningdu City and entered the city through the Pujia Gate.

At the gate stood a row of soldiers in leather armor and armed with spears, and set up a horse barrier at the gate.

If you are an ordinary pedestrian entering the city, you can enter the city by taking the side path and passing through interrogation, but a dart team or caravan like them needs to be carefully inspected before entering the city, and this horse rejection is set up to stop the carriages and conduct inspections.

Liang Sitong walked countless times from Pujiamen, naturally he was familiar with the road, he stepped forward and said to the soldier led by him: "We are from the Huining Dart Bureau, this is our common document, you can take a look." ”

The soldier at the head took the paperwork in Liang Sitong's hand, glanced at it, looked at the convoy casually, and said, "What kind of goods are in the carriage?" ”

"It's all beads and spices!" Liang Sitong replied.

Subsequently, the soldiers defending the city inspected every car, and they mainly inspected some swords and other weapons, which were contraband, and a central city like Ningdu attached great importance to the safety of the city.

Since they were all ordinary goods, they were released.

Xu Xiang and others also followed forward and walked to the city gate, but were stopped by soldiers.

"You guys, you're not from the dart game, are you?" Judging from the clothes of Xu Xiang and the others, the soldiers guarding the city judged that they were not from the dart game.

Liang Sitong hurriedly walked over and said, "Master Jun, these people are all coming with us from Linhe City. ”

"From Riverside City?" The leader of the soldiers looked at Xu Xiang and the others, looked at them with suspicion, and asked, "What are you doing in Ningdu?" Looking for relatives or friends? ”

"Our son-in-law came to Ningdu to play!" Yang Dianfeng stepped forward and said.

"Come to Ningdu to play? What is the surname and where is the home? He questioned again.

Qin Zhiwei was a little impatient, stepped forward and said, "What about Xiao Man? Call him out! ”

"Bold! Who are you? Dare to call us by the name of Captain Xiao! The soldier snapped.

"Tell Xiao Man to come out!" Qin Zhiwei glared at him, this look made him feel a coldness, and he involuntarily took a small step back.

When the surrounding people saw this scene at the gate of the city, they all looked at it, as if they were curious that someone dared to argue with the soldiers defending the city.

Another soldier behind him came to the leading soldier and whispered: "Yu Tou, this girl has an extraordinary temperament, she must not be an ordinary person, let's go and tell Captain Xiao, right?" Don't mess with people you can't afford to mess with when the time comes! ”

The leader of the soldiers was reminded by him, and he also woke up. Yes, don't look at these two girls dressed ordinarily, but they can't hide their peerless faces, how can such a person be an ordinary person. He just paid all his attention to Xu Xiang and Yang Dianfeng just now, and didn't pay attention to these two women at all.

Then he whispered: "You go and invite Xiao Duwei!" ”

Seeing this, Xu Xiang hurriedly walked to Qin Zhiwei's side and whispered, "We all want to keep a low profile when we come to Ning...... Don't be so strong, everyone knows about it. ”

Not long after, a young man dressed in a black brocade robe, about twenty-three or four, came out of the city, and carried a three-foot long sword at his waist, and a red gem inlaid with the scabbard.

"Captain Xiao! It's this woman looking for you! The leader of the soldiers said respectfully.

The man in the black brocade suit was Xiao Man, the guard of Pujiamen and one of the thirteen captains of the City Patrol Division.

As soon as Xiao Man saw Qin Zhiwei, a look of joy appeared on his face, he walked over quickly, bowed down and saluted Qin Zhiwei, "Miss Qin! When you come back, you don't say anything in advance, I'll come to greet you in person! ”

"I need to explain what I want to do to you?" Qin Zhi said coldly.

"Uh......" Xiao Man showed an embarrassed look on his face.

"Who are these?" He asked about the identities of Xu Xiang and the others to alleviate the embarrassment just now.

"What's the matter with you? We're going into the city, and your people are holding you back? Qin Zhiwei still didn't give a trace of face, which made Xiao Man lose face.

"I've seen Xiao Duwei, in Xia Xu Changsha, this is my wife Jiang Xiaoyu, and this is my entourage Yang Dianfeng!" Xu Xiang hugged Xiao Man with a fist, resolving the embarrassing atmosphere for him.

Xiao Man smiled slightly and said, "It turned out to be Brother Xu, please come in!" ”

Then he said to Qin Zhiwei: "Then Miss Qin, I won't bother you, I'll visit you at the fine door later!" ”

Qin Zhiwei ignored him and walked straight towards the city, those soldiers saw that their captains were so polite to this woman, and even a little flattering, where would they dare to stop her from entering the city again.

Finally came to Ningdu City, and after entering the city, Xu Xiang and the others said goodbye to Liang Sitong, and he began to look at the capital of the Great Xia Empire in this era.

Compared with Linzi City, Ningdu City is much larger, and the streets are much wider than the streets of Linzi.

In addition, there is also a group of soldiers with knives patrolling the streets, which shows that the security is much better than that of Linzi.

"Changsha, where are we going?" Jiang Shenyu asked.

"Of course, let's find a place to eat first! These days, I eat multigrain coarse bread every day, and my mouth fades out of a bird's taste! Xu Xiang looked at a magnificent restaurant not far away and said.

"Come back to the door with me first!" Qin Zhiwei said.

"Thin door?" Xu Xiang asked.

"Well, the thin door is our Daxia Dragon Sparrow's disguise shop, and I have arranged a place for you to live in the past."

Xu Xiang shook his head and said, "No need, I have my own plans to come to Ning this time, not for the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow!" ”

Qin Zhiwei didn't force him over, but said, "If you have anything, you can go to the Great Xia Dragon Bird to find me!" ”

"Okay! I know! ”

Then Qin Zhiwei left first, and Xu Xiang and the others walked into the magnificent restaurant.

Since they planned to accumulate wealth first, they had to understand the situation in Ningdu, so after they bought a house, he took Yang Dianfeng around to see if he could find any business opportunities.
