On the thirty-second day of the month of death, the wind was five.

The imperial capital leads the border of Polongtaisha.

The imperial capital is very large, with an area of one hundred and twenty tsunaki (one piece of land in the vertical and horizontal areas, and the converted area is slightly less than forty-nine hectares), she does not belong to any Sakai, nor does she have any sakai encirclement, and the imperial capital collar is the imperial capital collar, which is beyond the existence of any Sakai.

The so-called imperial capital, the center is naturally the imperial capital, the imperial palace, the imperial city, various ministries, aristocratic residences and all the people and things needed to meet their daily life, food, sound, sex, dogs and horses, etc., are all here. Although the imperial capital is much larger than the national capitals of other countries, it only occupies less than one-fifth of the area of the imperial capital, and the rest belongs to the outer ring area that surrounds the imperial capital.

If someone looks from a high place, they will find that the outer ring area is a veritable name - with the imperial capital as the center, there are five ultra-wide concentric ring avenues from the inside to the outside, dividing this large area outside the imperial capital into five rings. The area between the first ring road and the first ring road is called the first ring road, the area between the second and third ring roads is called the second ring road, and so on; and each ring area is divided into four districts in the southeast, northwest and southeast according to the direction, so the entire outer ring area of the imperial capital is divided into a total of 20 ring areas in the southeast and northwest of the city.

Just like the royal capital of Loren Magaga, the residents are divided into four urban districts, this way of class division, in the imperial capital is naturally no exception, not to mention in the imperial capital, in these five rings, which ring lives and who people, it is also clear, except for the forbidden army and the lowliest serfs, people who live in the ring area need to wear badges that identify their residence in the ring area, and those who live and wander in the ring area without wearing badges will be immediately arrested and seized. Residents of the outer ring who enter the inner ring area without permission and stay for a long time may also be immediately arrested and detained.

There are mainly five types of people living in the outer ring area.

1. The nobles and their servants who are sealed here, these nobles are certainly not as powerful as those in the imperial capital, but they are already considered to be masters in the ring area, and the nobles themselves have the noble logo, and they no longer need to wear the badge of the ring area, but their entourage and servants want to. The aristocracy was eligible to live in the first and second ring areas, and they were also eligible to buy residences in other ring areas.

Second, the imperial capital guards, 100,000 troops were ordered by the emperor to defend the imperial capital, they were ordered to move, no need to wear the ring area badge, the guard garrison area was in the first, third, and fifth rings.

3. The officials and subordinates of the imperial capital, these people are not nobles, but the operation of the empire is inseparable from them, and their residences are from the first ring to the third ring, and they must also wear the badge of the ring area

Fourth, merchants, craftsmen, etc., the life of the aristocracy is inseparable from these people, so they have also obtained the qualification to live in the ring area, but no matter how rich they are, they can only live in the third ring road at most.

Fifth, serfs, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Bolontaisha, if the food is not impossible to rely on the national transportation alone, but the transportation cost is also too great, and the Bolongtaisha is located on the plateau, although the planting conditions are not as good as those main production plains, it is not bad, so the empire transferred a large number of serfs to cultivate the farmland around the imperial capital, and the place where these serfs live and work is within this five rings.

This is the regional distribution environment of Polontaisha, and although Ao Zhu tries to avoid getting involved in all kinds of troubles along the way, he has not forgotten to collect information and intelligence everywhere, and such open information is not a problem. And according to the memories of the general of the Levima regiment, the Shernashak family in the imperial capital should live in the second ring road.

Le Weima said that there are very few nobles who can be sealed in the imperial capital, and most of them are military nobles, that is, regimental generals, but before Le Weima was promoted to regimental general, his family was in the second ring road, not far from this Shernashak family, so he knew such a family. As for why the fiefdoms of the family holding military power such as the regimental generals are all in the imperial capital, there is no need to explain it.

The Shernashak family, who led the second ring in the imperial capital, was also from the Ministry of Military Affairs and had been in charge for many years, but he repeatedly missed the opportunity to ascend to the throne of the deputy secretary, that is, he was one step away from being named a nobleman. At that time, most of the insiders in the army felt that this life was estimated to be like this, but they did not expect that two years ago, the Ministry of Construction issued a big case, and the supervisor took down more than 30 officials in the ministry and implicated two deputy secretaries. Although the power of the Ministry of Construction in the empire is far inferior to that of the Ministry of Military Affairs, how many imperial officials have bothered to ask for a deputy secretary in their lifetime, even if it is a weak ministry, the deputy secretary is also a nobleman.

Le Weima doesn't know which path this is taking in the imperial court, which in itself is inconvenient to say, but it is certain that there must be a big man behind him, this kind of cross-departmental transfer and promotion, and it is also the most critical promotion of Fenggui, that is, those in the inner court and the pro-court, in order to have this hand, and it has to be supported by people, after all, this kind of promotion is completely abnormal, and it is rare to see it once in ten years.

What surprised Le Weima a little was that it is said that if there is such a powerful support behind anyone's family, even if he does not take the initiative to bully others on weekdays, he will at least be very tough. However, this Deputy Secretary of Sernashak is said to be very talkative, and he basically does not conflict with others in the ministry.

Ao Zongheng hopes that when he comes to the door, this Deputy Secretary of Shernashak can also speak so well.

But first he had to find a way to get into Polontaisha.

There are no outer walls, and there are only ring roads between them, not even symbolic walls and passes.

Polontaisha does not have an outer wall, and there is only one reason - it is not needed.

This place is located in the central hinterland of the empire, hundreds of miles away from the border in any direction, no foreign enemy can pose a threat, and around Polontaisha, there are 100,000 forbidden army guards, even if there are people in the outer ring area who plot rebellion, they can only be quickly stepped on to powder, this is such a situation, what is the purpose of building the outer city wall?

But that doesn't mean it's a free place to come and go.

As mentioned earlier, walking in the outer ring area, except for serfs, forbidden soldiers and nobles, must wear badges. Serfs could only operate outside the Fifth Ring Road, and it was difficult for them to pretend to be nobles or soldiers—neither of whom would travel alone. If you report the identity of the legal management department, it is no problem to be admitted to the city, but it is estimated that when you are in the royal capital of Loren Magaga, you will be targeted by the legal management department and the intelligence agency here, which is a situation that arrogant and arrogant will never want to see.

After thinking about it, it's best to explore at night, at least get a ring badge first.

In the third of the water, there is snow.

At this time, the imperial capital has already had the first snow of the year, but tonight's snow is quite heavy, and the blood that has only begun to fall in the fifth wind has already dyed the entire imperial capital white. Some of the streets were covered with snow that had not even reached the soles of the feet.

Walking on such a snowy street is extremely laborious, whether it is a trench or a person, so it is difficult to see even a person on the street. Of course, this is of course a good thing for the light skill master who can tread the snow without a trace, and the fewer people there are, the more convenient it is to perform light power. As for arrogance, he didn't step on the snow without a trace, and flew directly over the snow with a gas carrier.

From the second ring of the fifth ring road, if you walk in a straight line, there is a distance of about fourteen or five rings, since arriving in the world of Ploz, Ao Zongheng has never tried to travel such a long way in one breath, if someone pushes the window this night, and happens to see the arrogance passing through the sky, maybe they will think that this is a stranger, trying to infiltrate the imperial capital to lead the victim-don't be strange, in the minds of most ordinary people, the alien will not be too friendly to humans, and the aliens come to the human world, either to kill or eat people.

"It's bad weather, I can't go out tonight, let's sleep. ”

Hirajiki muttered in a low voice, turned around and closed the window, ready to go to bed.

For the wealthy, only the days of eating, drinking and sleeping are not called life, especially after dinner, which should be the best time for pleasure and relaxation. And Ping Jimu, of course, is a rich man.

As a new green-collar mage last year, he came to the imperial capital from the south in order to get a good work contract, and the nobles of the imperial capital did not disappoint him - food and accommodation are all-inclusive, a salary of 6,000 polin silver a year, plus a year-end special bonus of 1,000 to 1,500 polin silver, plus a set of single-family two-story house in the West Second Ring Road, this contract is generous, not to mention the new green-collar mage, that is, the senior green-collar mage, if it is not in the imperial capital, there is absolutely no such market.

His current identity is the spell consultant of a powerful family in the imperial capital, and most of the spell consultants in the imperial capital nobles are idle positions, because there is no public security at all in the imperial capital, and there is no shortage of people to consult if there are spell difficulties, but as a nobleman in the imperial capital, in addition to interests and face, even if they don't need it, everyone is still vying to ask the mage to be a magic consultant for their own family. Despite this, the supply of mages in the imperial capital is still in short supply.

Why? Obviously there are still mages in Sakai, but they don't want to come to the imperial capital to make money?

The reason is very simple, the magic advisor in the imperial capital hurts his self-esteem.

It's not that the master's family doesn't give face, but there are too many powerful mages here, and it's okay to stay in the outer ring area at ordinary times, the closer you get to the inner ring, and even enter the imperial capital, in front of the high-level mages of the legal management department and the eunuch, these so-called magic consultants are all wild people, and their mana cultivation is even more useless, so why should they give you face and respect you?

Therefore, those mages who have strong self-esteem and have pursuits for themselves do not like to come to the imperial capital as spell consultants for nobles, and many people who come here also have the same idea - to leave after earning two years of money, and go elsewhere to be a mage master who is respected by everyone.

Ping Jimu doesn't have this idea for the time being, he has only been in the imperial capital for a short time, and he hasn't been seen much by high-level mages. I guess it's okay to accept it, because since he was a child, he felt that money was much more important than dignity and morality.

Ping Jimu loves to make money, and he loves to spend money even more, anyway, the owner doesn't care about his nightlife at all, as long as he needs to support the scene, he can afford this salary. Although the house belonged to him, he rarely slept here, and the tavern and brothel were the places where he spent the night.

If it weren't for today's heavy snowfall, tonight would not be an exception.

If it weren't for today's heavy snowfall, he would definitely not have seen Arrogant.
