When she mentioned Longdu City, Gu Ruoxi suddenly became energetic. Just as she was about to start her lecture, a cold wind blew on the grassland, and she couldn't help but sneeze a few times. Zhang Xiaowu asked Zhao Suo to fetch two cloaks. Gu Ruoxi
Xin said that he looked rough but was very delicate in his heart. The two came to the sand dune next to the camp. Zhang Xiaowu sat directly on the sand dune. Gu Ruoxi did not hesitate to sit next to him. The two of them were basking in the morning sun.
While talking about Longdu City.
Longdu City was the capital of the Holy Han Dynasty. It was located in the center of the empire and had a population of nearly one million households. It was divided into the imperial city, the inner city and the outer city.
The imperial city includes the palace and various ministries and offices. The royal family lives in the palace. Outside the palace, there are the left prime minister's office and the six courtyards (Tai Hospital, Tai College, Tai Shi Yuan, Fan Li Yuan, Supervisor Yuan, Wentian Yuan), and the right prime minister.
Mansion and Babu Yamen (Ministry of War)
, Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Household Affairs, Ministry of Punishment, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Rivers, and Ministry of Agriculture). The offices of each ministry in the imperial city accounted for one-third, and the imperial palace occupied two-thirds. The imperial city was protected by the emperor's army and the Zilong Army.
Protection, ordinary people cannot enter the imperial city.
Outside the imperial city is the inner city, which is ten times the area of the imperial city. The Longdu Mansion Yamen responsible for managing the inner city and the outer city is located in the inner city. Each ministry Yamen has its own offices, foreign envoys, loyal ministers, and famous families.
Most of the homes of nobles and wealthy families are located in the inner city. In addition, the inner city
Including all prosperous places, brothels, theaters, taverns, restaurants, pawn shops, banks, casinos, escort shops, flower shops, flower houses, jewelry shops, garment shops, shoe shops, car dealerships, wet markets, silk and satin shops, pharmacies, lacquerware shops, etc.
There is everything you need, and it can be said to be the most flowery place in the world.
The inner city is guarded by the Longdu Prefecture Yamen, the Longwei Army, the Silver Guards and the Forbidden Army. Among them, the Longdu Prefecture Yamen are under the jurisdiction of the Longdu Prefecture Yamen and are mainly responsible for hearing and deciding cases and apprehending civilian criminals; the Longwei Army is affiliated to the Supervisory Office and is responsible for repressing rebellion and arresting rebels.
He is an important criminal in the imperial court. He often works with Longdu government officials during his daily work.
There are overlaps; the silver-clad guards are affiliated with the Prince's Mansion and are responsible for public security in the city. Unlike the golden-clad guards who supervise the military officers of the imperial court, they are only responsible for the Longdu Mansion, patrolling the streets at night and sometimes assisting the Yamen and the Long Guards in arresting criminals; the Forbidden Army
Responsible for protecting the city gates and walls, and is subordinate to the Ministry of War.
Compared with the imperial city and the inner city, the outer city is much larger. It is built around the inner city of Longdu. Because there are no city walls, the boundaries of the outer city will be wherever the people build their houses. The area of the outer city
It is ten times the size of the inner city. Its function was originally to serve the inner city. However, as the four legions of the Forbidden Army were stationed in the southeast, northwest and northwest of Longdu, people who went to live in Longdu also
There are more and more people in Longdu City, and the outer city of Longdu City is now also extremely prosperous, and everything is not inferior to the inner city. Especially there are many casinos, martial arts arenas, escort agencies, and sects in the outer city. In addition, because the four forbidden army regiments guard the surrounding area, the rich people
Feeling that this place is safe, they have moved their industries and families here, resulting in the same busy traffic and row upon row outside Longdu City.
The favorite places for the second lady and the princess to go are some fighting arenas in the outer city. Since dragons are not allowed to fight privately with weapons, the fighting arenas are mostly filled with sumo wrestlers. The audience inside the venue can place bets for the contestants.
The rules of sumo wrestling are also very simple. You are not allowed to go in the eyes, kick the crotch, or bite someone in the throat. You win by knocking the opponent off the ring. All martial arts can be used.
The Gu family is naturally located in the inner city, but with more than thirty shops in the outer city and seven farms outside Longdu City, it can be said that it is extremely wealthy. Gu Yong is the third son of the Gu family, known as the third son of the Gu family.
The first number one scholar was also the military advisor to His Highness the Crown Prince, so he had a very high status in the Gu family, second only to the old man. However, military advisor Gu only had two daughters and no sons, so the future patriarch could only choose someone else.
Zhang Xiaowu thought of Wusong's instructions and asked, "I heard that your Gu family is the relative of the emperor?"
"The late Liangfei, the biological mother of the prince, is my cousin's cousin. We call her aunt. The aunt is my uncle's daughter, and she likes us most."
Slowly, "Aunt is the first beauty in the world. Everyone says that I look good, but not as one tenth of the aunt. Because the aunt's appearance is beautiful, she was selected as a good concubine by the emperor.
My aunt gave birth to a prince. I just had a daughter, who died at the age of two, so my aunt used my sister and me as her own daughter. "
Zhang Xiaowu said: "If you count it, the prince is your cousin. Isn't the military division Gu's uncle? But isn't he a master of princes?
Gu Ruoxi pouted and smiled, and said, "So the prince is also very nice to us, and even more trust in my grandfather."
"You are lucky, because you are the Gu family." Zhang Xiaowu said, "But you are unfortunate because you are the Gu family."
Although Gu Ruoxi is still young, he can understand his words. A shock in her heart, yes, her luck and misfortunes come from the Gu family. Although there is a beautiful talk about the Lord of the Dragon City, there is a talk of the master of the three counties.
Anyone among these six people lived in one life. But she and her sister talked privately and knew that the woman of the Gu family had the power to pursue Ruyi Langjun.
She looked at Zhang Xiaowu curiously on her side, and one meter sunlight drilled out of Yunxia, shining on his face. For a moment, he seemed to be from the sky. Gu Ruoxi stared at him blankly, but he couldn't say
When you come, the little deer in his heart was stunned.
"One day, I must go to see how this dragon capital is, how glorious it is." Zhang Xiaowu said with a smile, turning to see the second lady who looked at her second, and suddenly thought of Wu Song's words, and got up and patted on her buttocks.
Sand, said: "Go, leave, go back."
"Well." Miss Er followed him like a little tail.
After a busy day, Gu Ruoxi returned to his own account to rest. It was impossible to be scolded by the elder sister. Miss Gu Da naturally worried that the youngest sister was deceived by a man. But she noticed that the school was not rude
In the event, sometimes the distance between Gu Ruoxi will even take the initiative to open the distance with her sister. The young lady whispered her guess in the ear of Shijun.
... "
The young lady was busy blocked her mouth and said, "You helped me look at her together.
The master of Shi Jun nodded, thinking of the handsome teenager, he said that he was really so attractive, would you even like him even the little fart? It seems that his vision is right. Only excellent men can enter their own.
Fa eyes. If her voice was known by the young lady, it was necessary to be angry. It was really a Husky look at home.
From the third day of the team from leaving Jincheng, the scouts have reportedly reported that there are sand bandits followed, but after the scout chase, the sand bandit was thrown away. Zhang Xiaowu knew that the sand bandit thief was not dead.
The ruins of the Roland Saint Capital in Mucheng, the last place where the sand bandits started.
On the afternoon of the fifth day of the trip, the sun had not completely set. Zhang Xiaowu asked everyone to rest uncharacteristically. He suddenly summoned all the sergeants and called Chen Boqing over. After Chen Boqing entered the account, he was surprised to see everyone getting ready to go and asked what happened.
"Counter sneak attack." Zhang Xiaowu was full of energy and said: "The sand bandits can sneak attack us, so we can naturally attack the sand bandits. When we came here earlier, we stayed at the Luolan ruins for a few days to survey the terrain. Luolan City originally had a road
The river has water every year from April to March and dries up in May.
It's hard and flat." He drew a line with charcoal on the map and smiled: "This road cannot be called a road because it existed for two months and was created by the melting of snow and disappeared by the hot weather. But we were there at night
Hurry up and everyone rides a horse along the river, and you can arrive there in the middle of the night."
Chen Boqing was immediately shocked and said: "The bandits are in the ruins of Luolan? How did you know?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Since the last time we were taught a lesson by my dead soldier camp, the sand bandits have sent people to follow us. They have suffered serious losses and were killed by us. We have lost their courage. In the past few days, we should recruit other sand bandits and horse bandits to deal with them together."
For us, within a radius of a hundred miles, the Roland Ruins are the most special. Every traveling businessman who stops in the ruins is often attacked by sand bandits. Therefore, the Roland Ruins are also the place with the most bandits. Except for the army, very few caravans are willing to rest in the ruins."
Chen Boqing frowned and said, "You said the Roland Ruins are a gangster den? We passed by them last time..."
Zhang Xiaowu was deeply suspicious that the hero's sense of direction was not very good, so he continued: "It can't be called a bandit den. No bandits really regard the Roland ruins as their den. When our army came, we passed by the ruins, and the bandits saw us from a distance.
, running so far that you can’t even see any hair. But there are many
Sand bandits would rob businessmen who were passing by for rest here. We saw many corpses, so we were used to it. The east side of the ruins was desert and the west side was grassland. After robbing the businessmen, the sand bandits hid in the desert.
We rush to the ruins tonight, maybe we can wipe them all out in one fell swoop."
When Chen Boqing heard that he informed him about the sneak attack, he felt quite relieved and felt that he had been greatly reused. He asked: "What kind of help does the Colonel need from us? If we want to guard against the bandits together, I, the Gu family guard, have a duty to protect him."
"
Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly said: "Master Chen, please forgive me, this sneak attack on the bandits was carried out secretly, but when the army sets out, someone with a heart will definitely be able to find something. Whether there are hidden bandits in the five convoys, you and I can't be sure. I think Master Chen
We can’t guarantee that our people are very reliable, so we go out to fight tonight, and we need the help of Master Chen to appease everyone, and even help the left-behind generals to kill the hidden soldiers.”
After hearing this, Chen Boqing frowned and asked: "If the bandits are not in the ruins, and they come to kill you after you leave, how can you protect the safety of the young lady?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "How can we have both in this world? Chen Daxia, I only take three hundred soldiers. The other sergeants stay here to help Chen Daxia guard Miss Gu's family. The Gu family is the leader of the caravan. If Chen Daxia is not informed at this time, they are afraid of causing trouble to the Gu family."
I doubt it, but if I notify too many people, I’m afraid of being caught in the wind.”
Chen Boqing cupped his fists and said, "It is my duty to do so."
