Chapter 109 Tiger, Leopard and Jackal(2/2)
Running errands all over the city, passing on a few sentences and making some plans, a lot of things can be done.
Or to put it another way, if you don’t understand the rules and doorways here, and can’t communicate with the right people, the right methods, and the right forces in advance, then in this big city where people are mixed, you may not be able to do anything.
Don't even think about it.
The chamberlain laughed again and said, "The east of the city is the territory of the nobles, and the west of the city is naturally populated by the common people. However, in addition to being divided into east and west, Changsi City is actually divided into north and south. There is no other, because the imperial city is in the north, far away from the city.
The closer you get to the imperial city, the more naturally your power will grow.
For example, in the northeast of the city, the rich and powerful families like the Guo family live in the southeast. Some idle officials and frustrated civil servants live in the southeast. Of course, some relatives of the emperor also live in the southeast. After all, their status
Here, we don’t want them to be too close to the imperial city, appear too favored, and have thoughts they shouldn’t have. Therefore, the situation of each village in the East City cannot be generalized, but generally speaking, it is in good order. It depends on the status and family background.
It depends on the gatekeeper.
The north and south of the West City are clearly divided into Jingwei and Jingwei. With the West City dividing line, those who live in the northwest of the city are all the nouveau riche who were promoted from humble backgrounds. There are powerful people from all over the country, Hu merchants from foreign countries, and newly promoted nobles, who are shamed by the nobles.
A jester, a general of the imperial army who curry favor with powerful eunuchs. Of course, the most luxurious residence still belongs to the eunuchs in the Liqiu Palace.
The largest eunuch in the Li Kingdom should be the eunuch holding the seal of the Li Qiu Palace. However, the inner and outer courts are different. Eunuchs with high rankings are actually not as powerful as eunuchs who are favored by their masters. When the Crown Prince of Guangling was there, the East Palace had always been responsible for state affairs.
, so now the leader of the eunuchs is actually the group of regular servants in the East Palace.
But the eunuchs couldn't leave the palace easily, so the affairs in the West City were handled by the nephews of the same clan of the eunuchs. Therefore, the wolves were not one person, but a group. Although they were powerful, they were nouveau riche after all. They had no brains and were straightforward in doing things.
The techniques are rough, the reputation is bad, and the reputation of being a playboy mostly refers to them.
And now the alpha wolf in the pack is named Wang, but the really powerful one is not this king wolf, but his father.
This Wang family was originally a long-time general in the border town. Ten years ago, he relied on his military exploits to suppress the rebellion of the rebel king Li Xinglong and the remnants of the Black Lotus Sect. He was awarded twelve ranks and served as the governor of the nine towns. He was promoted rapidly along the way.
Upstart.
The head of the Wang family was also a sensible person. He knew that he had no foundation in the court, so who promoted him to the top? So he took the initiative to find a member of his family, a regular servant in the East Palace, and the Zhonglang General of the Zuosu Guards.
The king often served as his adoptive father.
That’s why the Wang family can now take charge of the military power of the country. Now they have become one of the ministers of Tuogu. They have been worshiped as Taiwei, and have been promoted to Zhuguo. Moreover, they have been promoted with serious military merit. Now they can even compete with Guo Taishi’s family in the army. Haha, in fact, they are all
This was the method used by Crown Prince Guangling to suppress the noble family of Hengxun.
So this King Wolf is the biological son of the current dynasty's Wang Taiwei, and the god-grandson of the Wang Changshi of the East Palace. He was raised in the border area, and he didn't have too many bad habits of a dandy. He has a solid fist and feet. He also likes to fly like an eagle and move around.
He often goes hunting in the countryside, but he doesn't rely on the power of his god-grandfather and biological father to run rampant in the city.
Compared with other wild wolves, Wang Lang is still able to listen to the truth, he doesn't kill too many people, and there is someone around him to help him make plans, and he is also very generous with his actions. The wolves in the West City can't beat him again and again.
He was also afraid of the current power of his family, so he led Wang Lang in the west of the city. When the Guangling Crown Prince was there, he fought against Guo Bao everywhere.
But there is another place in the southwest corner of Changsi City, where people live in straw sandals. It is a slum.
There shouldn't be such a place at the foot of the royal city, but the servants who serve it are too far away, and it is inconvenient for the masters to use it. So it has been left unattended. Millions of poor people gathered in that corner, so Southwest
The dozen or so squares there are a mixed bag of good and bad, and it is very chaotic. Even the government officials dare not come in and out at will. There are three religions and nine streams, evil sects and heretics, and they are very powerful. If used well, they can produce a surprising army.
Now Wang Lang is in charge of the low-level gang affairs in the slums in the southwest of the city. They are his confidants. His brother who is the boss is said to be his cousin-in-law of the Wang family. He is also from a clan in the mountains in the south. His surname is Lu.
He is a very scheming and resourceful strategist, and he can talk to all parties. He is very capable of doing things. No matter what he is told or entrusted, he can accomplish anything.
The people below call him Lu Jackal together with Wang Lang. He is really talented. He can help Wang Lang beat Guo Bao, and he can also fix the mess in the southwest and collect a lot of tax money.
, he is also very good at helping others, so he is highly appreciated by the eunuchs in the palace, and the pack of wolves also received a lot of advice from Lu Jackal, who respects him as a military advisor and has a greater reputation than that king wolf."
This, the Lu family from the mountains in the south? Are they related by marriage to the Wang family in Changsi City? Could this Lu Jackal be referring to Senior Brother Lu’s son!?
