Since Xiao Quzhi visited Chang'an West City for the first time, the news about him in Chang'an has not stopped.

First of all, the Hu merchant general of Xishi won a great victory in the Anxi army, and he was about to bring countless captured gold, silver and jewelry to Beijing to offer victory, and the news that the Anxi army would expand the army by 20,000 spread to everyone. Everyone hadn't digested this exciting news yet, and then there was news that Hou Xiao of Shouchang County, the righteous brother of Gao Kaifu, who had made great contributions in the battle in the river, was assassinated on the street when he fell ill.

After being calm for less than half a month, there was even more exciting news, Wang Zhun, the son of the imperial historian Jing Zhao Yin Wang Jie, bullied Princess Yongmu and happened to be seen by Hou Xiao Quzhi of Shouchang County, and then Wang Zhun was beaten into a pig's head by Xiao Quai, and was forced to kneel on the street of Pingkangfang for two hours.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately spread to every corner of Chang'an City within a day. Wang Ji is not only the nominal parent official of everyone in Chang'an, but also holds 20 important envoys, managing the work and life of all Chang'an people, food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating, drinking, and Lazar. Wang Zhun also became a hegemon in Chang'an with the help of Wang Jie's power, and no one dared to provoke him.

But Wang Zhun, a tyrant in Chang'an, was severely taught a lesson by the newcomer Hou Xiao of Shouchang County, and the people who saw it said that his face was so swollen that he couldn't see it. He also knelt on his knees on the bluestone floor for two hours, and it is said that he can no longer walk.

Just when most people were worried about Xiao Qu's illness, sure enough, the next day came the news that Xiao Qu's illness had been removed from the post of General Jin Wuwei and confined to the mansion of Qinrenfang.

Naturally, most people will not know the real inside story of Xiao Quai's neglect, they only know that Xiao Qubing beat Wang Zhun, and then ordered the emperor to be grounded when he removed his military post.

At this moment, most of them thought that Xiao Quai's illness was over, and what he relied on before was nothing more than the emperor's favor, and now His Majesty was obviously favoring Wang Jie's side. Although Xiao Quai's actions gave 80% of the people in Chang'an City a sigh of relief, and made countless people shout a lot of joy in their hearts, most of these people are now waiting for Xiao Quai's illness to be completely destroyed by Wang Ji and Li Linfu.

But there are still a few people who are optimistic about Xiao Quai, such as some Hu merchants in the Western Regions, and the Persians in the Persian Temple in Liquanfang. Through these days, they inquired about Hu Shang who came from the Western Regions, and learned what Xiao Qu was doing in the river, and in their hearts, they thought that he was the messenger of the gods, Suo Shiyang of Zoroastrianism, how could such an identity be defeated by Wang Ji and Li Linfu, two mortals.

Then they waited with anticrative expectation to see what countermeasures Xiao Quzhi had to deal with this unfavorable situation, thinking that the unfavorable situation in the river was reversed by him, one person broke through the tens of thousands of food army arrays, and one arrow shot down Mulu Jiancheng, Wang Ji and Li Linfu wanted to deal with him, didn't they look for death.

This expectation turned into disappointment less than two days later.

That Xiao Quai's illness was really honestly closed in the house of Qinrenfang, not only did he not have any countermeasures, but he was bullied by his opponent to the doorstep.

On the first day of his grounding, his opponent Wang Ji may not know the emperor's true intentions, or he may think that Xiao Qu's illness should have any countermeasures, such as asking someone to ask for Sister Guifei. But Xiao Qu did nothing, and only took him to teach more than 100 rangers to practice in the house.

So the people on Wang Jie's side began to inch in, and in the afternoon of the next day, hundreds of domestic slaves and gangsters and more than 200 servants and martial marquis were mobilized to surround Xiao Zhai. But whoever went out sent people to follow, and on the way to find trouble, and if they wanted to buy something, the gang immediately surrounded them to find trouble or threaten. This group of people, as the head snake of Chang'an, the bully plus the acquiescence of the government (Wuhou) behind them, who dared to sell things to them, but all the people who went out to buy in Xiao Zhai all afternoon returned empty-handed.

That's not all, in the evening, the house slave bullies on Wang Jie's side even made a move. A housekeeper named Du Fu and Du Zimei in Xiao's house went out to do some errands, and brought ten rangers as bodyguards, but they were still beaten by this group of house slave bullies with an excuse. Although the thirty house slave bullies who provoked trouble were defeated and driven away in the end, the ten rangers were also injured, and even the scribe Du Fu was punched and kicked in the melee.

Then Xiao Quai's side actually endured it like this, and even those Hu merchants and Persians in the Western Regions who were optimistic about Xiao Quai's illness suddenly understood that Xiao Quai's illness was indeed impossible.

"I saw him so flamboyant and crazy before, he was not afraid of Wang Ji and Li Linfu at all, and I thought he had something to rely on and a back hand, but I didn't expect that in the end, he was still overwhelmed by Wang Ji and Li Linfu. Many people in the entire Chang'an City secretly sighed, and they all thought this hatefully!

"Brother Xiao Dao, I'm not a troublemaker, I don't know what kind of temper you have? I wouldn't be able to bear it! In the hall of Xiao's house, Linghu Liuyun couldn't help but complain while watching Xiao go sick and help Du Fu and ten rangers rub medicine: "You see that this is all bullying to the doorstep, today they dare to hurt people, and tomorrow they dare to kill people!" ”

Xiao Quzhi was also annoyed, he didn't expect Wang Ji to come and send so many minions to block the door. It's like a swarm of flies, you can't kill people but you can disgust them to death, and there's really no good way to get them yourself. Xiao Quzhi thought to himself, should you lure a few people in and make an example? But when I think about it, it's not very useful, and when the time comes, this group of people will hide in the shadows and attack the people in their own family, which will be even worse, and they still have to kill Wang Jie.

"Don't go out for the time being if everyone is okay these days, let them be proud for a few days, and the emperor will have to recruit me to Huaqing Palace in less than four days." Xiao Quzhi thought for a while and asked, "Who knows their details about this group of house slave bullies?" ”

A ranger with a slight injury to his arm said, "Most of them are Xing Wei's people? ”

Xiao Qu was interested and asked, "How much do you know about Xing Wei?" ”

The ranger is a native of Chang'an, he nodded and said: "I know a lot, he was originally a broken household in Chang'an County, and when he was more than ten years old, he was a little minion in Chang'an Nancheng who specialized in collecting protection fees for scattered prostitutes. ”

Another ranger continued: "Later, in addition to collecting protection fees for scattered prostitutes, he mainly made his fortune by running a carriage and horse shop and controlling the southern city of Chang'an, and established a gang called the Axe Gang. Relying on making friends, he threw money everywhere and mixed in black and white, and slowly eliminated and annexed other underground forces in Nancheng, becoming a tyrant in Nancheng. ”

Because the imperial city and the palace city and the east and west cities are in the north city, most of the rich and powerful people in Chang'an live in the north city, and the people living in the south are generally ordinary people, so in Chang'an it is also called the poor in the south and the rich in the north. That Xing Wei started from Nancheng and started from the smallest minion at the bottom, and has been the boss of the underground forces in Chang'an City, which can be regarded as a legend. Speaking of him, these rangers are like a few treasures.

Another ranger introduced: "But at this time, he only dared to stay in Nancheng, collect protection fees, control the business of goods transportation and carriage and horse dealers in Nancheng, and also open some green buildings and casinos." But his power in Beicheng has not been able to penetrate until he got acquainted with Wang Jie's younger brother Wang Weld, and since then he has soared into the sky. The two played together every day, colluding with each other, Wang Weld used his power to do some illegal things, and he used the power of Wang Weld and his brother Wang Jie to expand the power of the Axe Gang to the entire Chang'an City. At present, there are almost more than sixty percent of the carriages and horses in Chang'an, and more than seventy percent of the pickers who transport things in the east and west cities such as Pingkangfang. Half of the casinos and forty percent of the cockfighting houses are also controlled by Xing Wei. Eighty percent of the people who came to surround us this time were his men. ”

Xiao Qu was sick and happy, listening to them introduce this Xing Wei is almost the emperor of the underground forces in Chang'an, he is more bullish than the three tycoons of the old Shanghai Tang, but he is a ruthless character, no wonder in the previous time and space, he dared to rebel.
