Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Sun Moon Fenghua!Compared with the Guan, Xiling in mid-November began to enter the cold period.

The winter in Xiling is much longer than in the Guan. In October, the weather will start to be cold. In November, you must wear a leather jacket. Especially at night, it is cold. It is difficult for people from the east to Xiling to adapt to this side. Cold weather.

Fortunately, Yuwen's family had already purchased the winter clothes of the White Tiger Camp soldiers.

For so many years, Yuwen's family has never treated the White Tiger Camp badly, and has never lacked military uniforms throughout the year.

Although Baihuying has been organized as the Protector Army, Xiling Duhofu really can’t produce thousands of winter uniforms for a while. Fortunately, Yuwen Chengling is quite sensible in this matter, so he will deliver the prepared winter clothes. When they arrived at the Duhofu, they were distributed to the soldiers in the Baihuying.

After Su Changyu came here once, no one in the city came to Baihu Camp again, until the Duhu Mansion sent someone over and ordered the Baihu Camp to send people to get the uniforms, Yuan Shangyu sent Qin Xiao with a dozen cavalry to the city Ship back to the military uniform.

The news that the Yuwen family was about to move into the customs did not make much publicity, but the Yuwen family began to clean their houses and fields, but many people knew about it.

This great change did not cause a huge wave in Xiling.

Heiyu General Su Shoumo and his guards, Yecrow, entered Fenggan Fucheng. Although low-key, it had already spread throughout Fenggan Fucheng and spread quickly. People naturally remember that Heiyu had repelled Wu 16 years ago. People in the city are naturally happy when the old people return to the past. After all, in the eyes of the Xiling people, General Heiyu is the nemesis of the Wutuo. As long as there are General Heiyu and Heiyu Nightcrow, the Wutuo will not dare Give birth to a covetous heart.

Sixteen years ago, the imperial court granted the Xiling family many privileges, and once made the Xiling family the actual controller of Xiling. But on the bright side, the Xiling Duhu Mansion still exists, and the captain mansion of each county still exists, even in local areas. The officials at all levels are no different from those sixteen years ago, so in the eyes of the people of Xiling, Xiling has been a part of the Tang Dynasty for the past sixteen years, and the people of Xiling are still the people of the Tang Dynasty.

They knew that the Xiling clan had great power in this land, but in the eyes of the people, it was only because they were the Marquis of Datang.

In the past 16 years, although Xiling suffered natural disasters and plagues and the people were suffering, the trade between Xiling and Wutuo has slowly recovered. In recent years, it has become very prosperous. People even feel that the Wutuo people have not dared to give birth to the eastward mind.

Even if the White Wolf King is assassinated, the situation on Wu Tuo's side is undergoing drastic changes. Of course, all this is not something ordinary people can know.

When General Black Feather came to Xiling, many people thought that perhaps he was just returning to the old place to take a look. After all, the general's army had not been mobilized. Even if it was mobilized, the deployment of the imperial army is not uncommon.

But many aristocratic families in Xiling knew how much this change had affected them.

The children of the aristocratic family no longer dared to show their teeth and claws in the streets and alleys, and even many children of the aristocratic family who used to be arrogant to the principal on weekdays were forced to stay at home.

The news of the Yuwen family’s migration and entry is naturally impossible to hide. The well-informed family family actually knows the clues, and for this reason they are even more worried. If the Yuwen family has left, what will the remaining family family face? The situation?

They have not forgotten that it was not only the three big clans who were sitting on the guards of Xiling to fight against the Wutuo people. The hundreds of powerful clans in Xiling were all out of the picture. The three big clans just led the way.

Now that Yuwen's family is moving into the customs, will the remaining family be retaliated by the court?

For this reason, many family heads of many generations go to Yuwen’s house to see the old man almost every day, hoping that he can give advice to the big families. They don’t even know that Changyihou has left Fenggan Fucheng. Naturally, he was regarded by the Yuwen family. The euphemistic approach is rejected.

When Qin Xiao brought people to the palace, the sky was still dark.

He wanted to invite these brothers to the restaurant to have a good meal, but he didn't know if he would violate the military law, and he didn't want to delay it. It was important to do business first, and he went straight to the Duhu Fu. The soldiers from the Duhufu came out and said, "The military uniforms are at the warehouse, and you come with me to collect them." Then he handed over to Qin Xiao: "Qin Qi School, the general has an order, let you go in." The soldier led Qin Xiao to see General Hei Yu.

The Duhu Mansion is very magnificent. In name, it is the highest government office in Xiling. Before the Wutuo Rebellion, it belonged to the Duhu office and residence. It was very grand.

However, after the Tang army withdrew from Xiling, Xiling Duhu had no authority to levy Xiling taxes. The corresponding expenditures of Duhu had to be allocated from the Xiling family every year, and the Xiling family would naturally compress it for various reasons. The expenditure of the Ministry of Defense.

There are six Cao Cao under the Duhu Mansion. At the beginning, each of the six Cao Cao had a place to do errands. Now the Six Cao has moved into the Duhu Mansion to do errands. They are crowded in a courtyard west of the Duhu Mansion. , The building of the Duhu Mansion is huge and spacious, with many courtyards. Although Liu Cao moved to the west courtyard, it was barely enough. After all, in order to reduce expenses, Liu Cao also cut a lot of officials, leaving a small number of people. Half of these years have been doing nothing.

Qin Xiao followed the soldiers in the Duhu Mansion for a long time, marveling at the size of the Duhu Mansion, and finally came outside a compound. He saw two night crows guarding the front and left of the door. He knew that this should be black. As for General Yu's residence, the only person in the world who can allow the Night Crow to be a guard, is probably only General Black Feather.

Qin Xiao met General Heiyu once under the Heavenly Capital Peak that night, but the distance was quite far, and he didn't see it very clearly. He was really excited when he thought that he would be able to see General Heiyu alone in the world alone.

"Two people, this is the Qin Cavalry School." The soldiers of the Duhu Mansion bowed their hands to the two Ye Crows and said, "By the general's order, come to see you!"

The two night crows looked at Qin Xiao at the same time, and one said, "You are Qin Xiao?" It seemed that they had heard Qin Xiao's name a long time ago.

The Black Feather Night Crows Qin Xiao knew were Su Changyu and the other Mencius Mo. They were not ordinary people. He admired the Black Feather Night Crows from the bottom of his heart, and immediately said: "Below is Qin Xiao."

"It turns out to be so young." A Ye Crow smiled and said, "You kid is very bold. Did you stand up for Mencius and assassinate that shit boy from the Zhen family?" His tone was kind to Qin Xiao. Sense of.

Qin Xiao thought to himself that many people knew about this, and said with a smile: "It's not bold, it was also impulsive at the time."

"If a young man is not impulsive, he is not a young man." Ye Ya smiled and said, "You are good boy." Pointing inside: "Hurry in, the general has ordered. If you are here, go directly in and see him. , No need to report."

Qin Xiao bowed his hands to both of them respectfully, and then entered the yard.

This yard is very large. What's different from other places is that the trees in the yard are mixed and dense, but all the trees are as tall as a gun, piercing into the sky.

There were a few houses near the forest. Qin Xiao walked over slowly and saw a person carrying a small wooden bucket and a wooden scoop in the other hand. He was scooping water from the bucket to water, and what was being watered was a few trees. Newly planted saplings.

He was wearing a dark gray cotton robe, simple and simple, he was over fifty years old, but there was no sign of camel on his back. He seemed to have noticed Qin Xiao coming, and the watering hand stopped for a moment, looked up, and Qin Xiao walked quickly. Before, bowed and saluted: "Qin Xiao pays homage to the general!"

He did not expect that General Black Feather would be dressed like this, let alone water the trees himself.

The general stood up and smiled and said, "You came just right, and you will water the rest. The new seedlings just planted will not work without water." Put down the wooden bucket and handed the wooden scoop over, Qin Xiao hurriedly reached out to take it. However, the general leaned on his waist, walked aside, and sat down on a large rock.

Qin Xiao watered carefully. The general watched, and instructed: "The sapling does not need to be watered. Next, don't face the roots of the tree too much and sprinkle it on the side." His tone was kind, like an elder was teaching. Your children and grandchildren do a very important thing.

"Now it is a sapling, as long as you take care of it carefully, in a few years, it will stand tall like other trees." The general's voice was gentle: "Incorporate the soldiers in the camp into the Guardian Army, what do they think?"

Qin Xiao said hurriedly: "They are all very happy, saying that they will be loyal to the court if they have the opportunity to serve the country.

"It's fine to think like this." The general said: "Serving the country is naturally important, but what matters is that the villagers and elders of Xiling need them to stand up and protect."

"Yes!"

The general looked up at the sky before he said, "Do you bring that jade pendant with you?"

"Jade pendant?" Qin Xiao was taken aback, turned his head, but immediately reacted, and hurriedly put down the wooden scoop, took out the tiger-head jade pendant that Han Yunong had given him from his arms, stepped forward, and handed it to the general.

Mencius Mo is a night crow, so Han Yunong can almost conclude that he is also a night crow.

The general mentioned the jade pendant, and Qin Xiao didn't respond at first, but instantly thought of the tiger-head jade pendant given to him by Han Yunong.

He always carried this jade pendant with him.

The general did not take it, but said: "I have finished pouring the water."

Seeing that the general did not accept it, Qin Xiao could only re-harvest it by himself. In the past, he continued to water the saplings, but listened to the general slowly saying: "When Han Yunong handed the jade pendant to you, he naturally didn't tell you the origin of this jade pendant. There are a total of 30 jade pendants. They were created by the saint’s commander in the palace and used to reward the thirty black feather night crows who attacked the king’s account. ."

Qin Xiao was startled. He knew that this jade pendant was not easy, but he didn't expect it to be a gift from the palace, and it would even avoid death.

"But I ask the saint to take back his death." The general picked up a leather bag on the side, opened the stopper, took a sip with his head up, and wiped his mouth casually, before continuing: "The night crow has made a contribution to the country. In the matter of division, what is eaten is the food cultivated by the people, and what the people pay is the taxes paid by the people. Naturally, it is necessary to bear the responsibility of protecting the land and the people. There is no reason to avoid the death penalty. The ancients said that the prince broke the law and the common people The same crime, if the Night Crow commits a capital crime, it will naturally be punished according to the law. It is not possible to corrupt the laws of the empire just because it is a meritorious official."
