The Prodigal Son of the Empire

Soon a group of soldiers poured out from the city and surrounded them all, their sharp blades pointing straight at...

[Author's digression]: The third update!

Chapter 541 Let me take over!

"Especially the Wu family is quite excessive!"

Xu Sheng's expression was very angry.

Wang Kang knew that the Wu family was also a military marquis's family, probably equal in status to the Fang family.

The head of the family, Wu Yong, was entrusted with the title of waiting for the arrow, and he had great power.

Wang Kang asked: "How did the Wu family go too far?"

Xu Sheng explained: "The Wu family has a lot of people in Feng'an City, and the money is solicited, and it is very restrained when it comes to various key departments."

"Then who is the Wu family here now, and what is their job?"

"It's Wu Hai."

Xu Sheng said in a deep voice: "It's the third son of Xingjianhou, who serves as the deputy city lord!"

"Vice City Lord?"

Wang Kang immediately understood that Fang Yin, Hou Yunyun had told him before he came that the Wu family had always dominated Feng'an City, and they wanted to win the position of city lord.

But if he stepped in and let his daughter be the city lord, this might become an eyesore to the Wu family. They were afraid of being targeted, so they went to him.

From this point of view, Feng'an City has really become a place of controversy among noble children, and another him has come.

The main positions in the city are all held by the children of the nobles.

Hearing what Xu Sheng said, Wang Kang understood that the military expenses of Feng'an City's defenders should be withheld by the deputy city lord.

Fighting wars is fighting for money, maintaining the consumption of the army, how can we do without money, but now it is contained, and it is under such a tense situation.

It's too much to be unrestrained!

Wang Kang's heart also became cold.

We talked all the way, and arrived at the barracks not long after.

Two military camps were set up outside Feng'an City, which were guarded on both wings.

This big camp is just to the west of Feng'an City, and its main defense is the Yue Kingdom.

Under Xu Sheng's leadership, Wang Kang Shunli's JRU barracks, the other hidden guards were outside, only Zhou Qing and Dagger followed him in.

After entering the barracks, one could feel a quiet atmosphere, and all the soldiers they saw were white cloths wrapped around their arms.

The whole army paid homage, which shows the high prestige of Deng Zhong.

Wang Kang followed behind Xu Sheng and looked at the soldiers in the barracks. They were all vigorous and capable people, full of awe-inspiring spirit.

Heroic spirit, are good soldiers!

Wang Kang nodded secretly. This kind of mature pawn is of course quite good, but it is also difficult to tame such a pawn.

When he took office suddenly, the first difficulty was how to get the whole army to obey.

When all the soldiers saw him, they didn't react at all. The old general Deng Zhong had just passed away, and there were many people who came to worship him, so he should be regarded as one of them.

And Xu Sheng didn't know if it was intentional, and specially introduced him...

The mourning hall is set up in a large tent, surrounded by heavily guarded soldiers.

"Xu Sheng? Are you working at the city gate today? What are you doing here?"

Before arriving at the mourning hall, a man dressed as a general stopped him.

"I'm bringing the new city guard to pay respects!"

The man was puzzled, "The new city guard?"

Xu Sheng introduced to Wang Kang: "This is the general of a hundred men, Wu Ming."

"This is the new city guard of our Feng'an City."

Xu Sheng motioned to Wang Kang.

At this time, Wu Ming, the general of the hundred people, also reacted, and said in surprise: "Xu Sheng, are you joking?"

Could this young man who looked like a rich young man be the new city guard?

Seeing this man's strange face, Zhou Qing took the document from his arms and showed it to him.

Really, it turned out to be true?

Wu Ming was startled immediately, and soon figured it out, this is another nobleman's son.

What is Dangfengan City?

As the war is approaching, the imperial court first sent a female city lord and then a weak crown city guard.

And the deputy city guard from the Wu family before?

Thinking of this, Wu Ming's heart was even colder, his attitude was much worse than Xu Sheng's, he didn't say a word of respect, just signaled to go in.

"Wu Ming,"

Xu Sheng signaled that he was the city guard appointed by the imperial court anyway, at least he had to get over it in face...

Wu Ming snorted coldly, but ignored it at all.

Wang Kang didn't care, and said lightly, "Go in."

After entering the inside, Xu Sheng said again: "Well, Lord City Guard, there are many generals in the mourning hall, look..."

When Wang Kang arrived, he paid homage to Deng Zhong first, and talked with him on the way. Some of the questions he asked him made him feel that he was not too unreliable. This was a kind reminder from him.

Wang Kang also understood what he meant. It was obvious that he came here suddenly, and at his own age, others would think that he was not capable of serving as the city guard!

It's just that if you come here from aristocratic background, you might meet someone with a worse attitude than Wu Ming.

"Don't tell me who I am first,"

Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "After I worship, there will definitely be a formal meeting, let's talk about it then, this is the mourning hall, try not to cause any trouble."
