According to the available information held by Zhao Gao, just one Western Federation Principality encompasses several star fields, covering a population of more than 100 billion, and it is impossible not to have its own armed forces in places other than the "Land of the Gods". And the outward expansion of the principality cannot only rely on the various spaces under the "Land of the Gods" to expand outward, and in order not to be controlled by others, it is almost inevitable to infiltrate in all aspects.

The absorption of elite explorers in different planes of space is a countermeasure against this infiltration, and it is also a balance of forces on all sides with the tacit consent of the underlying scale. Objectively speaking, the struggle for power and resources is a common law of any kind of society, and this will not change even if the world under the underlying rules has been greatly developed.

It is no wonder that the explorers who went on missions with Zhao Gao always had some people who were very familiar with history but had no ability to understand and deal with it at all. The source of their knowledge should be a certain course in the principality, and compared to the explorers who were originally born here, they are inherently weaker in understanding.

In terms of numbers, the principality is close to the water, and there will be a lot more people participating in the plot each time. And the space will take the route of elite soldiers - explorers like Zhao Gao who have been selected by the space, each of them is carefully selected, basically with their own talents, and their potential is endless.

This is another layer of background that is not very hidden, and in just a few words, Zhao Gao guessed the general situation.

"Don't you care about these people?" Mai Linglong saw that Xiao Lie had no intention of treating these people at all, and asked a little surprised.

"The master of my family is His Highness the Controller, and these people are just a team of vassals." Xiao Lie followed suit, respectfully answering Mai Linglong's questions, while quietly guiding the way.

This easily explains his detached position in the team in the first place. In terms of strength, he may not be able to be in the upper reaches among those senior servants just now, but everyone is waiting for his attitude. It is clear that he is the spokesperson for the team of controllers who are sent to this team of officers.

No wonder he was so dismissive of these people lying down.

Just like the old guy's team, now in addition to the core three-person group, the old eight easily used the distribution of benefits to establish a peripheral group among the vassal explorers. The peripheral regiment is based on the three historical cities, and each of them forms another layer of peripheral regiments. It was with this method that Lao Ba easily grasped thousands of explorers relatively firmly in his hands.

Although the process and method are bound to be different, in terms of results, the use of vassal explorers by this controller should be no different from Lao Ba.

Between the twists and turns, Xiao Lie took Zhao Gao and Mai Linglong along the official road in Chang'an City, and all the explorers and plot characters encountered along the way avoided them, showing the absolute control of the controller over this generation.

Before arriving at a magnificent mansion, Xiao Lie silently retreated, changed into a man in a green shirt, gently opened the small door on one side, and led Zhao Gao and the others in.

The level under the control of the controller, obviously, at the level of a small column, is not qualified to enter the relatively core area, and there is naturally a core team of the controller to arrange here.

"This should be Gongsun Hong's mansion." Zhao Gao took two steps slightly, and had already given the result of his judgment. He doesn't have a detailed grasp of the information of Chang'an City, but he still knows something about such an important place, which is easy to explain the attitude of those plot characters just now.

Gongsun Hong, that was the prime minister under the command of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at this time, who was responsible for handling the daily court affairs!

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the power of the prime minister was very great, and before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he was basically equivalent to the actual vice-monarch: not only did he hold the appointment and promotion of hundreds of officials, but also supervision and punishment were all matters within the scope of his duties, and as for the emperor's edict, it basically needed to be approved by the prime minister before it could be implemented.

More importantly, the Prime Minister's Office is responsible for the formulation and operation of all basic national policies, and all the performances need to be approved by the Prime Minister before they can be played, which essentially forms a pattern of checking and balancing the monarchy with the power of the prime minister.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty certainly would not be willing to be subject to such restrictions. Therefore, by the time Gongsun Hong took office, the power of the prime minister had been greatly compressed, and the close servants of the Son of Heaven and the secretaries of various ministries gradually divided part of the prime minister's power, and even the middle and high-level officials were no longer directly controlled by the prime minister, and there was a partial surveillance of the prime minister.

But even so, the prime minister is still the chief of a hundred officials, and his power is impressive.

At this time, the controller was able to establish the base camp in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and his ability and status were obviously higher than those who controlled the blood river of Zhijingo.

The man in the green shirt led Zhao Gao and the others to the door of the inner courtyard, but they couldn't go in, and waited patiently after ringing the copper bell. It's just that this time it is no longer the explorer, but the two plot characters, although the rank is just a white name, but they calmly introduced Zhao Gao and Mai Linglong into the ear room of the side courtyard.

"Two distinguished guests, Lord Changshi still has government affairs, please stay for a while." The two little servants served tea, then bowed and stood aside.

Zhao Gao and Mai Linglong immediately glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.

Prime Minister Changshi has a rank of more than a thousand stones, and he already belongs to the senior officials of the central government of the Han Dynasty. More importantly, this official position is equivalent to the secretary general of the prime minister, and he has a large number of documents to and fro, and he is the existence of many high-ranking bureaucrats. The fact that the master has been able to go so far is already worthy of his name of control.

"Knowing our general information is probably easy for people in this position." Mai Linglong smiled bitterly, she still underestimated the heroes of the world. How could a character who could gain a firm foothold in the core cities of the Han Empire and have a place in it be easy?

"Then we should be treated at a higher level, right?" Zhao Gao was not surprised by this. At their level, many conspiracies are no longer comparable to the upright conspiracy. Others will not be stupid, and they will honestly let themselves act arbitrarily.

If there is no accident, the content of Dongfang Shuo's performance has been recited to the Prime Minister's Mansion as it is. This kind of major event at the national level, even the emperor can't decide in a word, Dongfang Shuo left a copy for the prime minister in advance, which is a sign of respect, but also a relatively clear show of his attitude.

He decided to no longer regard himself as a courtier, but to go to the temple and discuss politics with these people.

It's just that in this way, the purpose of Zhao Gao and Mai Linglong entering Dongfang Shuo's mansion just now is obvious.

"Wait patiently, it's not us who are really sad." Zhao Gao paused, since the matter was already like this, he blew the tea soup in the tea bowl with peace of mind, and his expression became indifferent.

This is someone else's territory, even if something happens, it is someone else who has to worry about weighing. In the case of not figuring out Zhao Gao's real hole cards, no matter how determined the posture of the controller is holding the wisdom bead, it can't hide the faint moves that may occur under the change of situation.

In order to minimize the possibility of mistakes, neither Zhao Gao nor the controller will make a move easily.

In other words, as soon as you make a move, it will be nirvana!
