Gyeongju was close to three sides, and as a second barrier against Western Xia, it was often attacked by the west. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThe intrusion of the whole summer, coupled with the mixed settlement of Han and Qiang in the jurisdiction, many Qiang tribes took refuge in the Western Xia, and invaded the remote areas of Gyeongju, making Gyeongju sparsely populated, only a few large cities were inhabited by ordinary people, and other small villages and small counties were abandoned.

Gyeongju is one of these big cities, with a population of 600,000 and more than 100,000 people living in Gyeongju, making it one of the largest cities in the frontier.

Under the early morning light, the streets of Gyeongju are full of people, and the various shops on the street are doing brisk business, and the sound of selling is endless, and merchants from all over the world come and go.

Zhao Lei took the sisters in the Gyeongju army, as well as Zhu Dali and more than a dozen guards, and a group of more than a dozen in civilian clothes came to Gyeongju City.

In the city of Gyeongju, there are many people, and in the entire Gyeongju boundary, there is only one large city in Gyeongju, which also bears the responsibility of trading, whether it is the Qiang people who come to Gyeongju to exchange grain, tea and salt, or the merchants who smuggle to Western Xia, they must pass through the city of Gyeongju.

"Gyeongju Castle is so strange! Many houses are built on the hills, and even the roads are crooked, like waves! Xiao Ruoruo had never seen a city like Gyeongju, so she looked around curiously and said.

"Before I came to Gyeongju, I carefully learned about the situation in Gyeongju, Gyeongju Castle is built according to the mountain, there are cities but no ponds, many places in the city are higher than the city walls, and the buildings are also built along the mountain, messy but unique." Zhao Lei led the war horse and walked in front. Hearing Xiao Ruoruo's question, he replied indifferently without looking back.

"Brother Zhao Lei! You see those people dressed strangely, huh? Yang Jinhua looked at a few Qiang people on the street who were holding cattle and sheep to exchange goods, and said excitedly.

"They are Qiang people living south of the Great Wall, and there are more than 200 Qiang tribes in Gyeongju, with a population of nearly 200,000, half of which have taken refuge in Western Xia, and about one-third are neutral. But there is a small part of the migration to the south, to the Northern Song Dynasty, they are those tribes, the Qiang people are good at grazing, with the cattle and sheep in exchange for the salt, tea, copper and iron and other things they need, is one of the important places of war horse production for the imperial court, the Qiang people are not fast, but the weight bearing capacity is very strong, and can walk in the mountains, is the main source of military logistics horses. Zhao Lei looked at those Qiang people. Carefully explained to Yang Jinhua.

"Brother Zhao Lei knows a lot!" Yang Jinhua looked at Zhao Lei with admiration and admiration and said.

Zhao Lei looked at the delicate and innocent Yang Jinhua, shook his head with a smile, and led them along the road towards the Gyeongju Yamen.

……

The most lively street in Gyeongju, the originally bustling crowd, suddenly became chaotic. Two Qiang people dressed as slaves, covered in blood, supported each other and staggered forward, and behind them, more than a dozen gray-clothed men. Like a cat playing with a mouse, he slowly chased after him with a smile on his face.

Zhao Lei happened to walk here with a group of people and saw this situation. Surprised, he grabbed a passer-by and asked, "Dude! What's going on? Is the law and order in Gyeongju so chaotic? ”

The passer-by who was pulled took a closer look at Zhao Lei's dress, and said impatiently: "You are from out of town!" The first two are Qiang people from the north, I heard that they were slaves who escaped from the Qiang tribe in Western Xia, and their original tribe was captured by other tribes, and they were homeless, and they joined the Han family of the Gyeongju clan, and I heard that they stole the things of the Han family, so they were beaten by the Han family. ”

"What did you steal from the Han family! Obviously, the fourth son of the Han family looked at these two Qiang people unpleasantly, so he found a reason to beat these two Qiang people twice in three days. At this time, an old woman said pitifully.

"Find a reason to hit someone casually. Aren't these two Qiang people the people of the Great Song Dynasty? Looking at being beaten, no one spoke! Xiao Ruoruo asked the old woman next to her in surprise.

"Who cares! This Han family was originally a big family in Gyeongju, and the four sons of the Han family were famous for their rampant and domineering, plus those two Qiang people who were still not recognized by the tribe, no one would stand up for them. The old woman sighed.

Zhao Lei looked carefully at the two Qiang people at this time, and saw that they were strong and powerful, one on the left was low and fat, but one was muscular, and the other on the right was tall and thick muscles, although the two Qiang people were full of blood and bloodstained on their bodies, but their eyes were full of stubbornness and unyielding, and there was a trace of murder hidden in the depths of their eyes.

"The Han family! Who hasn't heard of it? Zhao Lei looked at the dozen or so gray-clothed men who were walking slowly on the road, arrogant and rampant, and asked strangely to the passers-by around him.

"Brother Zhao Lei! I've heard of this Gyeongju Han family! Their ancestor is Han Chongyun, the founding general of the Taizu period, and later when Taizu released the military power with a cup of wine, he handed over the military power in exchange for wealth and returned to Gyeongju, and then became the strong man of the rich side of Gyeongju, I heard that three percent of the land around Gyeongju is the land of the Han family, and several shops of the Han family are also very famous, and they are more involved in the business of salt tea. Yang Jinhua immediately poured out all the things she knew.

"The Han family is just a businessman and landlord in Gyeongju, and they are so arrogant, the people in the family dare to beat people on the street, and there is no royal law in their eyes, and there is no official mission to manage it, it is simply lawless! Aren't you going to take care of these people? Xiao Ruoruo looked at those arrogant Han family subordinates and said angrily to Zhao Lei.

"Tube? How to manage! I'm just a defense envoy in Gyeongju, and I'm not qualified to manage Gyeongju's political affairs, so I should find Sun Chu to take care of this kind of thing! Zhao Lei heard Xiao Ruoruo's question and said with a wry smile.

"Sun Wei! If he could have taken care of it, there would be no such thing on the streets today. Yang Jinhua said with a sneer.

At this moment, the gray-clothed man who was like a wolf and a tiger had already caught up with the two Qiang people, and immediately surrounded the Qiang people, punching and kicking them.

"Stop!" Xiao Ruoruo really couldn't get used to the behavior of these people, so he immediately walked out of the crowd of onlookers and stopped him loudly.

Xiao Ruoruo's shouting made the gray-clothed man who was punching and kicking stunned, stopped attacking the two Qiang people, turned his head to look at Xiao Ruoruo, and saw that it was a heroic beauty who stopped them, and immediately turned his head to look at the street.

On the street, a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth, shaking the precious folding fan bought from the Zhaojia folding fan shop in Bianjing, pushed aside the crowd of onlookers, and walked in.

"This young lady! But knowing Zhao Ming and Fan Quan, these two people have unclean hands and feet, stealing the property of the master's family, and are being taught a lesson by the master's family, why did the young lady stop them? The handsome young man with red lips and white teeth walked in front of Xiao Ruoruo and said in a gentle tone.

Zhao Ming, Fan Quan! Such a familiar name, as if I had heard it there, Zhao Lei heard the words of the handsome young man, and thought suspiciously.

Zhao Ming, Fan Quan, Di Qing! That's right! Aren't these two Qiang generals under Di Qing in history, the Qiang generals of Gyeongju who charged into battle, killed the enemy, and made great contributions to Di Qing, Zhao Lei, who was not ready to take care of this idle matter, thought of the identities of Zhao Ming and Fan Quan, and immediately became excited, and decided to recruit these two people to the Gyeongju army.

"Unclean hands and feet, stealing the owner's property, this kind of thing should be handled by the Gyeongju government, how can you vent your personal anger in broad daylight! Besides, even if they steal the property of the master's house, it would be nice to dismiss them, why should they be insulted and beaten so much! In order to recruit Zhao Ming and Fan Quan, Zhao Lei immediately stood up and said to the handsome young student.

After Zhao Lei stood up from the crowd of onlookers, the handsome young man immediately looked at Zhao Lei in surprise, because behind Zhao Lei, Yang Jinhua, Zhu Dali and others all walked out, and they knew that it was a group of people at a glance.

"Student Han Shixing, I don't know who the adults are?" The handsome young man Han Shixing saw Zhao Lei and asked respectfully in surprise.

Zhao Lei looked at Han Shixing strangely, wondering why he was able to guess his identity, while Xiao Ruoruo and the others also looked at Han Shixing strangely.

Han Shixing smiled slightly, pointing to the golden silk fish bag exposed around Zhao Lei's waist.

Zhao Lei and the sisters in the army were slightly stunned, and they were secretly surprised by Han Shixing's keen observation.

"This official Gyeongju defense envoy Zhao Lei Zhao Sanshi!" Zhao Lei said arrogantly to Han Shixing.

"The crown prince and the prince Zhao Sanjue!" Han Shixing looked at Zhao Lei and asked in shock.

"It's this official!" Zhao Lei said with a smile.

"It's a great honor for students to be able to meet Master Zhao! However, Lord Zhao is not in the Gyeongju military camp, what is the business trip when he comes to Gyeongju City! Han Shixing first complimented Zhao Lei slightly, and then began to say without a trace.

"Gyeongju is located on the border, and the city has a unique flavor, so bring your subordinates to Gyeongju for a visit!" Zhao Lei squinted his eyes, looked at Han Shixing and said indifferently.

"In that case! The students didn't bother Lord Zhao to hang out. Han Shixing saw that he couldn't get the news from Zhao Lei, and said that he would quickly report the news of Zhao Lei's entry into Gyeongju to the elders in the family, so he hurriedly prepared to leave.

"Wait! These two Qiang officials asked for it. Zhao Lei looked at Han Shixing and said indifferently.

Qiang people! Han Shixing looked at Zhao Ming and Fan Quan, who were beaten and bruised all over behind him, looked at Zhao Lei suspiciously, and then said with a smile: "These two are just three-handed thieves, I don't know what Lord Zhao is going to do?" ”

"Since they stole the things of the master's house, they will be stabbed and recharged to the army according to their crimes, and it just so happens that the Gyeongju army is short of people, and this official will take them back to the barracks, which can be regarded as punishing them." Zhao Lei looked at Han Shixing and said with a smile, but there was a meaning in his flat tone that he couldn't refuse.

"And so it was! The students handed over these two Qiang people to the adults to fill the army in Gyeongju! Han Shixing looked at Zhao Lei and said with a smile.

"You guys! Send these two Qiang people back to the barracks! Zhao Lei heard Han Shixing agree, turned around and said to a few guards behind him.

With a few guards driving Zhao Ming and Fan Quan away, Zhao Lei looked at Han Shixing who said goodbye and left, and sneered in his heart, he knew that Zhao Ming and Fan Quan, these Qiang people, had always been eager to take revenge, and today he took Zhao Ming and Fan Quan, these two people will definitely fight to the death in order to take revenge, once they have enough power, it will be the unlucky time for the Han family.
