Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 681
The sound of horseshoes was as fast as thunder and drums, and the passers-by on the long street all turned their heads after hearing the sound. Their eyes only flickered, and dozens of knights had already rushed forward on their horses.

Even on this busy street, these knights didn't slow down at all. Pedestrians dodged everywhere they passed. His face was trampled by horseshoes, and he howled endlessly.

Or a strong person might brag on the side of the street relying on his bravery, and what he gets in return is nothing more than a powerful arrow or a slashing blade.

The bloody wind permeated the street, and the riots on the street continued for a long time until the knights disappeared at the end of the street for a long time.Those whose loved ones died in the sudden commotion just covered their faces and wailed, not even daring to go forward to pick up the corpses.

Although Chinese people have preferential treatment, there is only one family that dares to make such a show in the capital, and that is the Zhongshan Palace.

Sure enough, this team of knights raced through the streets for a long time before stopping in front of a huge castle-like mansion.

This mansion is the Zhongshan Palace located in Xiangguo, and the group of knights are the warriors raised in the palace.After they dismounted, a large number of servants poured out from the side door to lead the horses to the stables.If there is a slight slack in the middle, there will be a meal of kicking, beating and insulting.

The king of Zhongshan likes to raise warriors, and the palace is especially brave. Among the thousands of warriors kept in the palace, this team of knights may not be outstanding, but when it comes to violent temperament, they are all afraid of falling behind.

As for those servants, they are the most despicable officials in the palace. Let alone beating and scolding, even killing a few people by mistake is not a big deal, but can be used as a sign of bravery.

"That's the end of this safari. After returning home, everyone will have fun and recuperate, and wait for the reunion in the future."

After dismounting, a man who looked like a leader gave a high-five, and everyone either responded or turned a deaf ear and dispersed.And the leader didn't think it was disobedient, and hurried to the palace with a dozen of his cronies, as if to report the hunting results.

In this team, there are both Hu and Han, but generally speaking, Hu people still account for the majority.But there were seven or eight Jin people gathered together, which seemed to be a small circle, which was particularly eye-catching.

But these Jin people are also strong and brave, and there is no lack of dangerous light between their eyebrows. Few people dare to provoke them during the journey, and even wherever they pass, Zhuhu consciously avoids them. It can be seen that at least in terms of strength, These few Jin people made the companions feel fearful.

On the other side, there was a group of more than ten miscellaneous Hu squads. One of them walked out and waved to a man of Jin people who was of Hu blood. He walked up to him and said with a smile: "Qin Nu has gained a lot this time. Congratulations."

"Wandering in the countryside is nothing to boast about. I'm more happy to use it for the king's affairs, fighting everywhere."

The person called Qin Nu was Xin Bin, who had entered Shihu's mansion a few months ago, and was renamed Qin Su, Huang Quan's cheap son-in-law earlier.Facing the other party's greetings, his demeanor did not change much, and he responded arrogantly.

The head of the miscellaneous beard laughed dryly after hearing the words, and said: "Qin Nu's aspirations, originally he wanted to compare himself with Ma Qiu. But if he wants to be valued by the king, it is not enough right now. Why don't you and I gather together in the future, It’s better to gather people to hunt than to be driven by others right now!”

"It's okay, let's talk about it in the future."

After Xin Bin pondered for a while, he nodded in response, bid farewell, and then led the crowd to leave.It's just that after turning around, the contempt and disgust in his expression were undisguised.

This palace covers an area of ​​dozens of hectares, not inferior to a small town. The area where the warriors live is located on the southwest side of the palace.Xin Bin and the others quickly returned to their residence, which was an independent small courtyard. After entering the courtyard, several people took off their armor, bows and knives, and entered the room to rest.

After entering the room, Xin Bin relaxed a little. He heard the unscrupulous laughter and cheers of many barbarians outside the courtyard, his face became more disgusted, and he said in a low voice, "You beast!"

A few months ago, he came to see Shi Hu under the name of Huang Quan's envoy, and he entered the palace smoothly, but he has not seen Shi Hu so far, and he was only kept in this mansion.

There are so many warriors in this mansion, it is not surprising that Xin Bin and others are among them.Although the palace provided them with shelter, food and clothing, there were frequent fights among the warriors. Private fights and even fighting each other were not forbidden. It was like a group of wild beasts. Only the brave ones could stay.

When they first came here, because they were afraid and didn't dare to be too presumptuous, Xin Bin and others also suffered a lot and were almost kicked out.But soon discovered the way to survive here, as long as not too many lives were killed, not too many people would come to ask.Appropriately showing their strength will help them hide.

So Xin Bin then changed his strategy, attacking any provocations.He himself is a man of martial arts, and he led more than a dozen Longxi soldiers, all of whom were brave and skilled in fighting and martial arts, gradually stood out among the warriors and attracted the attention of some people.

These samurai were partly free-range, and there were large and small groups gathered among them, cruising and sweeping the suburbs from time to time in the name of hunting, but in fact they were looting.People and money, anyone who can invade and plunder is unavoidable, because with the backing of the Zhongshan Palace, even the Imperial Army dare not pursue them.

In addition to sharing the loot with the team, half of the spoils had to be handed over to Zhongshan Wang Shihu. If there were too many looters, he would be appreciated and promoted, and even Shihu personally received and promoted him.

After understanding this, Xin Bin suddenly felt absurd.He wasn't a kind person in the first place. He started his business from nothing after going south, so he might not have been contaminated by similar things.

But Zhongshan Wang Shihu is one of the few high-ranking people in Zhao Guozhong, and it can be said that he is the No. 1 under the Zhao Lord.With so much power and wealth, it is really unimaginable to support a group of bandits to plunder the place.

However, the wonderful thing is that no one feels that this is inappropriate, maybe Hu's nature is so bad, or Master Zhao himself is caused by this.Later, Xin Bin also gradually understood that not only Zhongshan Wang Shihu, but also most of the other dignitaries in Jiehu also supported such a group of men to plunder for profit.

Although these slaves are dignitaries, they have never realized that they are the masters of the Central Plains, let alone abide by any laws and regulations. They are just brutal and plundering as much as possible, a group of wolves with crowns and bandits who steal positions!

Xin Bin originally thought that he would have a chance to meet Shi Hu when he entered the Zhongshan Palace, but he still seemed to overestimate the status of Huang Quan in Shi Hu's mind, maybe he didn't even know he was coming.Faced with such a situation, most of the earlier plans and preparations were useless.

Although Shi Hu kept these warriors and bandits, he was not close to them. Their residence was only the outermost part of the palace. Once they approached rashly, the elite soldiers inside would immediately kill them on the spot.So although the location is not far away, there is an insurmountable gap between them.

In order to achieve his goal, Xin Bin could only use the way of survival of these warriors. After all, in this situation, if he did not participate in hunting and looting activities, he would not even be able to enter and exit the palace.

These warriors and bandits, although there are quite a few brave men.But Xin Bin and others are not mediocre, especially the Longxi soldiers around them, they are the elite men trained by Jiang Donghao's family with all their human and financial resources, and their ability to fight and assassinate is far better than those Hu captives who only rely on bravery Gangsters, in this small-scale hunting and looting, they performed very well.

A dozen or so of them dared to directly attack the Zahu Manor tribe with hundreds or even nearly a thousand people, and they were able to succeed frequently. They gradually became famous among these warriors, so they were recruited by more people, and they had more opportunities to get in and out. Channels of opportunity and news.

This kind of wanton and tyrannical life has its own magic power that makes people involuntarily indulge in it and cannot extricate themselves.And the current situation has actually met the level he expected earlier.It is not impossible to become the leader of these bandits with such a gradual development.

But Xin Bin is not an ordinary brave and proud person. If he was obsessed with wealth, he would not have given up his hundreds of millions of wealth in the capital to seek advancement.And what I have seen and heard here is extremely shameless to the Jiezhao court. Although it gains power for a while, it will surely fall madly because of it!

What's more, his family is in Jiangdong, and the Longxi soldiers around him are even more loyal to Shen's son-in-law. He has neither the intention nor the possibility to stand on his own here.

Therefore, Xin Bin did not forget his original intention. In addition to settling down in Zhongshan Prince's Mansion, he has also been trying his best to inquire about Qian Feng's news, hoping to get in touch and find out what to do next.

There is still no news about Qian Feng, but the master Yan Muyan who went to the north with him is getting more and more famous, and his deeds have been heard frequently.But Xin Bin didn't have a suitable opportunity, and he remained cautious and didn't dare to contact rashly.

"With Mr. Qian's ability, it's just a trivial matter to gain a foothold in this place, so there's no need to worry about it. On the contrary, I, do I really want to keep looting here for a living?"

Right now, there are no short-term worries, but Xin Bin also came here with a mission, and even imagined that once he had the chance to get close to Shihu, he would risk his life to assassinate him and become famous in one hit!For people like him, they are not afraid of sudden death in their prime, but they are afraid that they will remain unknown until death!
However, now he is only slightly famous among a group of bandits, and the future he can see is to gradually accumulate meritorious service, or to be favored by Shi Hu.

Before him, there were not no successful examples. For example, Ma Qiu, who was very famous among the bandits, followed this way to get Shihu's appreciation.If it weren't for Shihu himself being idle right now, Ma Qiu, who stood out from the group of thieves, would have been in charge of the army long ago.

Xin Binshang was sitting in the room thinking, when he suddenly heard a shout: "Is this the southern prisoner Qin Su from Hefei who lives here? Your Majesty has summoned you, follow me quickly!"

After hearing this, Xin Bin didn't react for a while, he suddenly looked up and saw that the Longxi soldier beside him also had a surprised expression on his face, only then realized that it was not an illusion, he hurriedly got up and grabbed a sharp blade Hidden in the sleeve.

"Alang, be careful..."

Seeing this, the Longxi soldier on the side called out a low reminder, and then Xin Bin also came to his senses, realizing that it was impossible for him to approach Shihu with a sharp blade.He just got his long-cherished wish fulfilled and occasionally forgets his form. After being reminded, he threw away the dagger and hurried out.

　It's so difficult to get out of the first watch before twelve o'clock, and greet the single dogs in a pinch. . .
