Huifeng City is one of the 120 cities of Great Qin, with a total population of about 1.1 million people, which is relatively small among all the cities in Great Qin.

At this moment, in the City Lord's Mansion of Huifeng City, three men were gathering together.

"Qin Hao'er deceived people too much, and he dared to take back the power of the city lord at the risk of the world's disapproval, which is simply a big rebellion."

One of them, a middle-aged man who was obese and looked like a ball of meat, couldn't help but say angrily.

"Qin Hao'er's move has a way to die" Opposite the fat man, a man wearing battle armor and exuding a fierce aura on his body had a cold expression, "The power of the city lord was determined by the sect at the beginning of the founding of the Great Qin, but Qin Hao'er now wants to take it back, this is tantamount to provoking the sect, we should pay it immediately."

"I don't have to worry about this matter" On the main seat, the Lord of Huifeng City sat upright, "Qin Hao'er is now angry, as far as I know, there are no less than dozens of large and small families who have passed the news to the sect, just wait for the sect to withdraw their hands, and it will be easy to clean up Qin Hao."

The Returning Wind City Lord's voice was flat and said without the slightest fluctuation.

In his opinion, apart from other sects in the world, the Xuanling Sect is the most powerful existence, and no force can be an enemy of it.

If the sect wants you to perish, you must perish.

The City Lord of Huifeng said again, "What I have to do now is to guard this acre and three points of land, and don't let Qin Hao Xiao'er put his hand in."

"What the city lord said is very true," the fat man nodded in agreement, but his mouth was comforting, "But the city lord doesn't have to worry too much, now that Daqin seems to be vigorous under Qin Hao's rule, it is just an illusion, but in fact it is on the verge of ruin."

"Oh, what does the deputy city lord mean by that?"

The Returning Wind City Lord looked at the fat middle-aged man.

"Lord of the city, listen to my careful analysis for you" The fat middle-aged man smiled confidently, "Since history, Great Qin has been ruled by the family, and the power of the family is above all else, although the Qin family is a royal family, it is only a relatively powerful family in the family, although it has the name of the royal family, but it is not the reality of the royal family, which is also limited by the sect."

"However, the current generation of monarchs vainly wants to take back the power of the world for their own use, divide the power of the city, support the poor and scatter the cultivators, and even open schools in various places, which is a move to encroach on the fundamental interests of the family, and will definitely be opposed by the joint opposition of all the families."

"At that time, even if Qin Hao'er is ruthless, what if he is ruthless?" the fat middle-aged man sneered, "Not to mention that so many families are inextricably linked with the Xuanling Sect, if they are all offended, it is tantamount to being the enemy of the entire sect."

"Let's just say that Qin Hao's subordinates really have the strength to take over the one hundred and twenty cities of Great Qin?"

"As far as I know, in Yunjing City, most of the officials of the family have been killed by him, and even if there are still people in the Bai family, the Zhang family, and the Wen family who are still in the court, they have also been marginalized."

"In the entire Great Qin Dynasty, all those who are in high positions now are some people who have never heard of it, such as Zhang Juzheng, Fan Li, Zhang Sanfeng, Zhuge Zhengme, Su Qin, etc., these people have never appeared before, but now they suddenly appeared, and there must be a big problem in them."

"With Qin Hao's experience as a child for only sixteen years, does the City Lord think that he will have so many connections?

"According to the opinions of his subordinates, I am afraid that Qin Hao'er has already become a puppet and is controlled by others."

The fat middle-aged man said, his tone was very determined.

In fact, in today's Great Qin Kingdom, this is also the opinion of most people.

The strong in the Shenwu Continent are respected, and the status of the strong will always be higher than that of the weak, which is determined by absolute strength, even the king of a country is no exception.

"The country is the foundation of the sect, but now there are external forces that dare to take advantage of the danger of others, and they will inevitably be hit by the thunder of the sect."

"The monarch's will has arrived, and the city lord, deputy city lord, and commander of the Praetorian Guard will immediately resign from their official positions and be suspended for use."

At this moment, a high-pitched voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"What?

The three people in the hall were shocked when they heard this.

This palace is extremely well guarded, and all the guards are all loyal men under the command of the three people, and even the monarch cannot enter here silently.

The three of them looked at each other at each other, and they all saw a look of shock in each other's eyes.

"Go out and see"

The three of them got up and walked towards the door with solemn expressions.

The door of the hall opened, and an extremely rich bloody aura entered the mouths and noses of the three of them, making their faces even more solemn and ugly.

"The person who delivered the decree was killed directly," the cold man said in a cold voice, his eyes flashing with a thick killing intent.

"Where are the Returning Wind City Lord, the Returning Wind Deputy City Lord, and the Commander of the Returning Wind City Guard?"

Outside the hall, a military general with a hideous scar on his face held a roll of golden cloth, looked at the three of them with an indifferent expression and said.

"Blood Knife Wei Xingji, the eighteenth on the Daqin Most Wanted List, a strong man in the late congenital stage"

Looking at the general, the three of them all shrank their pupils.

This person is very familiar to them, he is a wanted criminal on the wanted list of the Qin State, ranking eighteenth on the wanted list, and his strength has reached the realm of the late congenital stage.

Don't look at the innate seems to have flooded in Yunjing City, there are many of them in any family, but it is Yunjing City, the capital of the Qin State, and it has gathered almost the essence of the Qin State above the eighth layer.

In fact, in the Qin State, the total number of all the innate powerhouses was only about two thousand.

Among them, the family accounts for nearly one-third of the number, and the remaining two-thirds are from the Han family, most of them are loose cultivators, and a small number are sectarian outcasts. 、

And in the entire Great Qin Kingdom, there are also a number of strong people in the late innate stage.

"I really didn't expect that you also responded to the recruitment order and became the lackey of the monarch"

The face of the Returning Wind City Lord was extremely ugly.

Many families will recruit a group of such thugs, but they are just cooperating with each other, but they didn't expect that Wei Xingji would really be willing to join the court and be a lackey of the monarch.

"What will happen to you, you don't have to worry about it, you just need to accept His Majesty's will"

Wei Xingji handed the holy decree in his hand to the Lord of Huifeng City, and said in a cold voice.

"What if this city lord doesn't accept this order?" a fierce light flashed in the eyes of the city lord of Huifeng.

"The king has decreed that whoever disobeys the decree shall be killed without forgiveness, and his family shall have his property confiscated, and men under the age of sixteen shall be enslaved, and those over the age of sixteen shall be assigned to the frontier. Women over the age of eight were sold into the official kilns as prostitutes, and those under the age of eight were sold into slavery in the major families".

"Do you still want to resist the decree?"

Wei Xingji sneered and looked at the Huifeng City Lord, a flash of happiness flashed in his eyes.

These children of the family have no one in their eyes all day long, and they never treat them as human beings, they will be framed if they want to be framed, they will be chased and killed if they want to be hunted down, and they will be issued when they want to issue a wanted warrant.

Now that he has been recruited into the military and become a fourth-rank general, he never thought that in less than ten days, it seems that his relationship with those families has been reversed.

And as Wei Xingji's words fell, behind him, a group of about three hundred, blood-stained soldiers with blood-stained armor held spears in their hands, and looked at the three of them with cold eyes, like hunters looking at their prey.

"Naturally, we will not disobey the will of the king"

The three of them looked at each other, and finally the Returning Wind City Lord made a decision.

"Okay, then let's take the order"

Wei Xingji bowed slightly, and then said, "In addition, Your Majesty has an order, all the city guards in the city need to be transferred, and the security of Huifeng City will be temporarily taken care of by these three hundred brothers behind me, and this general is also temporarily in charge of the county Wei."

"Transferred out of the city guards?"

"Windward City is garrisoned by these three hundred soldiers?"

"This is to cut off the hope of my family's last counterattack."

The three of them understood in their hearts, but they didn't dare to have any objections, so they had to nod their heads and accept it.

"In that case, you can resign from your position, go home to recuperate, and wait for the king's summons."

Putting the holy decree into the hands of the Lord of Huifeng City, Wei Xingji waved his hand to let him leave, and then walked straight into the hall and sat down on the throne unceremoniously.

"Damn bastards"

Looking at the position of the magpie's nest occupied by the dove, the faces of the three of them became more and more ugly.

......

At the same time, in the major cities of the Qin State, similar scenes occurred.

A congenital powerhouse who came in response to the recruitment order was entrusted with important tasks, as few as three or five hundred, and most of them carried the soldiers to the city lord's mansion to deliver the will of the king.
