After joining the nobility, you will be promoted to an official position! The speed is extremely fast.

East Heart City! The head of finance and taxation glared at the officials who came to deliver the decree.

"What are you talking about? You said that I have made no achievements while in office, causing public resentment. You want to demote me? Ask me to do official evaluation? Why? I have not made any mistakes. What kind of decree is this?" Book stared.

"This is what the prince wants, and it's also for your own good. The prince's will is yours, and you can do it yourself! Also, a few days ago, the prince knighted you, and you didn't feel very comfortable with it. Really?" The official who came to deliver the order smiled and left.

"Hmph, no one can touch me without the permission of the city lord!" the finance and tax chief glared.

In another official office, an official in Tsing Yi widened his eyes and seemed a little excited.

"What did you say? I didn't hear clearly!" the Qingyi official said excitedly.

"Your Majesty's decree, you are diligent and caring for the people, and manage things clearly. After conferring a title on you, I have given you an additional official position, the Director of Finance and Taxation of East Heart City!" the official who delivered the order smiled.

"Added an official position? Chief of Finance and Taxation?" the Qingyi official said excitedly.

"Accept the order!"

"Oh, oh!" The Qingyi official reached out to grasp the will in a dream.

But at the moment when he grasped the will, he frowned and said: "Then, what about the original financial and tax chief, my boss?"

"The prince has other arrangements!" the messenger said with a smile.

In an instant, the Qingyi official guessed something, but even if he guessed something, he had a huge pie in front of him and he couldn't bear to throw it away.

boss? Offend your boss? How is it possible? We are all members of the Taiwei line!

No, fuck your boss, now, now I'm the boss.

Two voices echoed in my mind.

If you don't accept the order, will you give up your promotion? Not only did he give up his official position, but he also gave up his existing title. This will please the prince and offend the prince.

After receiving the order, he was promoted to a higher position to please the prince and offend the prince.

Isn't the purpose of currying favor with the lieutenant just to get promoted to a higher rank? Now that I have been promoted to a higher rank, why should I please the Taiwei? Fuck the lieutenant.

But, I am already a member of the Taiwei line. The prince lied to me on purpose. Even if I betray the Taiwei temporarily, the prince will not reuse me in the future.

No, the prince is fighting with the Taiwei now. If I surrender to the prince now, wouldn't it be a timely help? The prince will definitely reuse me.

The officials in Qingyi had a lot of thoughts, and while they were grasping the decree, they started to have a fierce ideological struggle.

The person who delivered the order smiled slightly, and left without disturbing the Qingyi officials.

Promotions and demotions were happening rapidly in all the major cities in the Eastern Fiefdom.

With Wang Xiong in charge of the general direction, his subordinates naturally sorted out the relationships between officials in each city very clearly.

A huge storm swept across the entire eastern fiefdom. Sweeping everyone in the Pang Taiwei faction.

Sow discord!

Everyone can see that this is Wang Xiong's attempt to sow discord, but you can't find the slightest flaw in this sowing discord, it's a conspiracy. I'll dig a hole and watch you jump. But one by one, they really jumped in.

East Heart City, Taiwei Mansion.

"Bang!"

After hearing reports from various places, Captain Pang smashed the coffee table to pieces with one palm.

"Let me tell you from the beginning, the comprehensive knighthood was a trap, a trap of Wang Xiong, just to increase the number of officials and to sow discord!" a staff member said in shock and anger.

"How is everything going now?" Taiwei Pang looked at the officials.

All the officials looked bitter: "The situation is not optimistic!"

"How to say?"

"Wang Xiong is provoking, we all see it, everyone can see it. Those in high positions will naturally not accept the order, but some of those who are still in low positions are jealous!" An official said with a bitter smile. .

"What's the jealousy? Can't he see it? Is he taking his boss's position? Can he sit still? Let his boss tell him, tell him!" Pang Taiwei said angrily.

"It's useless. He takes the position of his superior. It means that he has become a superior now, and his former superior has become a subordinate. He is not in the same department. How can I persuade him? Let a junior official persuade a senior official not to be in a bad position. , Want the senior official to return the black gauze hat to the junior official? At this time, his position has changed, and he can no longer listen to his boss's words!" The official said with a bitter smile.

"Don't they know that this is Wang Xiong's conspiracy?" Pang Taiwei said with an ugly face.

"I know, and they also know that Wang Xiong's actions are all upright. Who doesn't know it yet? But these petty officials don't care. Because Wang Xiong's will is valid in Da Qin. As long as they respect Wang Xiong's will, They have now received everything we can give them! Even more!" the official said bitterly.

"He doesn't know that Wang Xiong is just using them. After dealing with us, will he kill the donkey?" Pang Taiwei said depressedly.

"I know, they want it, but it's also possible that Wang Xiong will kill the donkey without giving up. There are risks. But, following us to overthrow King Dongfang is also risky! Both of them have risks. They are short-sighted, anyway. There are risks, why not seize the immediate benefits first?" the official said bitterly.

"A rat's eyes are short-sighted, a rat's eyes are short-sighted!" Pang Taiwei said angrily.

"I heard that some of our people have secretly gone to Wang Xiong's people to surrender! They are starting to betray us!" the official said with an ugly expression.

"You're looking for death!" Taiwei Pang said with an ugly expression.

"Lieutenant, is there anyone behind Wang Xiong who is making suggestions? He's really awesome! This sowing dissension has made us a little confused!" the official said bitterly.

Taiwei Pang looked at the officials with a gloomy face and said: "A big mess? Humph, you are not that superficial, are you? The Human Emperor is going to take back the eastern fiefdom. This is the general trend. Then Wang Xiong is just proud for a while. What are you afraid of!" "

Everyone looked solemn and nodded.

"We are sworn to follow the Taiwei to the death, but other people, some of the officials below have been successfully instigated, and they have begun to contradict their superiors and compete for official positions!" an official said with a bitter smile.

"There must be an expert behind Wang Xiong. Without spending a single soldier, we have made our position in chaos. Lieutenant, it's too chaotic down there. It won't take a while to calm down!" A staff member said with a bitter smile.

"It's a little messy, but if you sort it out slowly, it can be calmed down!" Another staff member said solemnly.

Lieutenant Pang sat on the main seat, his face gloomy and sulky. The officials and staff around him were thinking of countermeasures.

"I understand, Wang Xiong is deliberately making me uncomfortable!" Pang Taiwei glared.

"oh?"

"Wang Xiong's first step is to be tax-free for a year to attack this official. I have listed a large number of money-spending projects for him, which can be regarded as a good deal. Wang Xiong's second step is to be promoted to a higher rank and to make us miserable. , Causing trouble for me?" Pang Taiwei said with a gloomy face.

"No, this time the chaos is really big!" A staff member said with an ugly expression.

"Hmph, I can't solve this mess in a short while, and I can't make it easy for him, Wang Xiong!" Pang Taiwei narrowed his eyes.

"Lieutenant, have you thought of a way to fight back?" All the officials looked happy.

"That's right, let the officials on my side get into trouble? Okay, then I'll make the officials on his side get into trouble too!" Pang Taiwei's eyes widened.

"Lieutenant, what should we do?" A group of officials immediately geared up and asked.

"You don't need to take action. The fish raised by Captain Pang can be released from the pond!" A trace of cruelty flashed across Captain Pang's face.

"Fish in the pond?" The officials looked puzzled.

But all the staff suddenly shrank their pupils: "Lieutenant, you mean, the bandits and bandits from all over the Eastern Fiefdom?"

---------------

Zhendong City, Dongfang Palace.

"My lord, you don't know, news came from several cities today that some officials from Taiwei Pang's faction are willing to surrender!" an official said excitedly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, we just issued a few decrees and deceived them into running around. We didn't spend a single soldier or a single penny. We just made them in chaos, let them have internal chaos, and let their People have come to seek refuge with us, hahaha!" Another official laughed.

Many officials started laughing.

Only Wang Xiong, who was sitting in the main seat, did not laugh.

Wang Xiong looked as usual, but the look in his eyes when he looked at the official just now was different. There was a flash of disgust in his eyes.

What does it mean not to spend a single soldier or a penny? Is the Dongfang King's decree just a fart

In Wang Xiong's heart, every government order and every will is more important than how much money he has. Didn’t you pay for yourself? I have given a lot, what I have given is the will, what I have given is the king's promise.

The king's promise is worth more than ten thousand gold!

In the eyes of these officials, is it just worthless

Most of these officials are descendants of the Wang family. Wang Xiong can't say anything now. Wang Xiong also knows that they are just too mediocre and are not deliberately belittling themselves.

Talents, I need truly outstanding talents. After his father died, all the truly good talents were gone, leaving some mediocre ones who were beaten to pieces by Captain Pang.

Although these people were mediocre, some of them were loyal after all, and Wang Xiong did not blame them. However, as he gained more and more power, some of them were no longer qualified for the positions he had given them.

"Your Majesty, what should we do with the officials who have come to seek refuge?" Wang Tiance asked.

"Since you have come to seek refuge, keep it well. It is better to provide help in times of need than to add icing on the cake. Keep it!" Wang Xiong said solemnly.

"Yes!" the officials responded.

In one sentence, Wang Xiong determined the nature of those officials who had surrendered. Accept them! The more people are accepted, the greater the blow will be to Taiwei Pang, and the more chaos will be caused to Taiwei Pang.

"Since I agree to their surrender, I will ask the people below to fully cooperate with them and cooperate with them in their fight for office. I will make sure that Taiwei Pang can no longer be distracted and do bad things!" Wang Tiance said with a smile.

Wang Xiong nodded.

Wang Zhongquan shook his head: "I'm afraid, it's too late!"

"Oh?" Everyone looked at Wang Zhongquan.

"Prince Qi, news just came that Captain Pang withdrew his troops from all directions to suppress the mountain bandits!" Wang Zhong said with a wry smile on his face.

"Bandits?" Everyone raised their eyebrows.

"Yes, there are nine large-scale bandits in the Eastern Fiefdom. They were all encircled and suppressed by Taiwei Pang in the past. Unfortunately, they have never been able to wipe them out. As soon as the bandits come out, they burn, kill and loot. Every time Taiwei Pang sends troops, he can Kill some mountain bandits. To protect the safety of one side, the troops controlled by Captain Pang are specially designed to deal with mountain bandits, and they have also won the gratitude of the people in the cities everywhere!" Wang Zhongquan explained.

"The Nine-Road Mountain Bandit Army has been encircling and suppressing all the bandit troops for four years?" Wang Xiong's face darkened.

"Yes, the bandit king is extremely rampant. Once he enters the forest, he disappears without a trace. Only the bandit-suppressing troops under the command of Captain Pang can find his position. Now that the bandit-suppressing troops have withdrawn, the bandits are threatening to spread cholera in all directions. Well, let’s not talk about suppressing bandits, it’s hard to find them, and as for the location of the Nine Route Bandits, it’s probably impossible for Taiwei Pang to tell us!” Wang Zhongquan said with a bitter smile.

"Humph, nine bandits? These are the nine groups of fish raised by Captain Pang. When you need to use them, fish out a few and show them to the people to show how wise Captain Pang is. Knowing that these fish are there Oh, but he didn't catch them all, he is trying to make the bandits proud!" Wang Xiong's eyes widened.

"The old slave thinks so too, and even speculates that the leader of this group of bandits is related to Taiwei Pang. He is one of Taiwei Pang's people, deliberately pretending to be a bandit!" Wang Zhongquan said with a bitter smile.

"Oh?" Wang Xiong narrowed his eyes.

"This group of bandits used to be insignificant, but after the death of the old prince, they became stronger and stronger. Every time Taiwei Pang suppressed the bandits, the bandit leader escaped? And this time, as soon as Taiwei Pang's bandit suppression troops withdrew, The Nine Bandits have begun to cause trouble in major cities!" Wang Zhongquan said in a deep voice.

"Having trouble in the city will, on the one hand, divert everyone's attention from the fighting between officials to the bandits, and reduce the pressure of civil strife on Taiwei Pang's faction. On the other hand, it will cause chaos for us, making the people feel that we are incompetent and that Taiwei Pang is capable." Help them?" Wang Tiance said with an ugly expression.

Wang Xiong tapped the armrest of the dragon chair with his fingers, and the officials around him started talking.

After discussing for a while, they looked at Wang Xiong together.

"Lieutenant Pang thinks that I have caused trouble for him? Is he going to cause trouble for me too? Okay, okay, okay, well done!" Wang Xiong narrowed his eyes.

"What?" the officials asked in confusion.

"Now that I'm here, I will inform the people of the four cities that I want to suppress the bandits! Jiulu mountain bandit army? I won't leave any one behind, I will kill them all! I see Taiwei Pang, there are How many fish can be released, hum!" Wang Xiong's eyes turned cold.

"Kill all the bandits? But, they fled into the forest, some...!" Wang Tiance said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter. In the mountains and forests, how can bandits be familiar with wolves? It's time for Yi Yan to train his troops. The Tianlang camp will be responsible for suppressing bandits! I will make a fish feast! A feast for the world!" Wang Xiong's eyes widened. .
