Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 515 The world inside is so wonderful
Xia Lin had seen a post on the Internet a long time ago, asking whether Du Yuesheng dared to challenge Zhang Zuolin in Shanghai.

At that time, he was just watching the quarrels in the comment section for fun, and now he is experiencing the same thing, but he is not Du Yuesheng's character.

As the commander-in-chief of 70,000-strong Po Lu troops in Jiangnan Road, 100,000 new Po Lu troops and 400,000-strong Green Forest troops, his weight in the current environment is not less than that of the King of Northeast, and may even be stronger.

The only difference is that Lao Guo has not left yet, and at most he is called the Young Marshal.

Then let's compare these people in the martial arts world with him. Xia Lin has a bodyguard named Luo Shixin. Luo Shixin is currently the General of Ningyuan, a military official of the fifth rank.

Luo Shixin had an adjutant under him, whose name was Jia Degui. He was a seventh-rank lieutenant of Zhiguo. Under Jia Degui was a young messenger general named Cao Meng, who was an eighth-rank lieutenant of Xuanjie.

Under this deputy captain Xuanjie, there was a captain of the ninth rank, named Dong De.

The son of Dong De had a conflict with a local gang in a tavern in Lin'an City a few days ago and had his arm broken. Then Dong De took more than 200 people to smash the tavern, car dealership, and sedan chair dealership owned by that gang, and also detained the gang's leader. In the end, the matter was finally settled only after the gang leader of Lin'an came forward in person and gave generous gifts.

And this Dong De didn't even have the chance to meet Xia Lin. The only two times he saw Xia Lin was when he was standing at the back of the new army's training ground to maintain law and order and saw him from afar.

Yes, that's right. Xia Lin has no rank, and is even a commoner. But if the head of the family here today chooses not to meet Xia Lin after seeing his name card, then even if Xia Lin respects his wishes and doesn't care, his place will definitely be locked with a big iron chain tonight and a fire will be set on fire that can't be put out no matter how hard you try, and anyone who is able to climb over the wall and escape will have at least thirty holes of unknown origin on their body.

The wound might be like the flying feather arrow of the Jinwu Guard, or like the falling feather arrow of the Qianniu Guard, or even like the broken golden arrow of the Jiumen City Defense.

But without evidence, it can only be attributed to an accident.

Sure enough, not long after Xia Lin's business card was handed over, footsteps were heard in the room, and then several women rushed down barefoot.

The woman in the lead was a little older, looking about 26 or 27 years old. She saluted Xia Lin breathlessly and said, "I apologize for not coming to meet you in person."

Xia Lin just glanced at her, then walked into the house with his hands behind his back. There were quite a few people passing by him, but all of them were trembling with fear, and even dared not look Xia Lin in the eye.

"My lord, please come this way."

Leading Xia Lin to the second floor, he opened the door and was greeted by a faint fragrance. The room was exceptionally clean, and the floor was covered with an expensive Persian carpet. Xia Lin paused and asked, "Should I take off my shoes?"

"Your Excellency, please ignore it..."

Although the woman said so, Xia Lin still took off his shoes and walked in. He didn't say anything polite and sat directly on the main seat. The two Living Yama Kings were not even qualified to go upstairs.

"I wonder what orders Master Xia has for you today? Master should have given me a heads-up in advance so that I can be prepared."

The woman knelt beside Xia Lin and poured tea and water for him. Xia Lin was indeed thirsty at the moment, so he took a sip of the tea, then looked around the room with interest.

This place looked very luxuriously decorated, and must have cost a lot of money. Feminine elements filled every corner, making one know at a glance that this was a woman's room.

"Are you the head of this Xiujin Building?"

"Sir... it's not the Embroidered Gold Tower, it's the Gold Powder Tower."

"Sorry, I got stupid playing games."

woman:"???"

"No matter what building it is, I heard that you specialize in the bounty business?"

"Yes, my lord."

The woman did not dare to hide it, and nodded quickly and said, "We usually make a living by helping the court catch some pirates and bandits."

After listening to this, Xia Lin looked the woman up and down. To be honest, this woman was really pretty, and she even had a bit of the temperament of a young prince's carefully selected royal family. After all, if she was not carefully selected by the royal family, it was really hard to imagine that such a beauty would be lost among the common people.

But this was not the time for Xia Lin to admire beautiful women. He raised his chin and asked, "What's your name?"

"My Lord, my surname is Sheng and my name is Haitang."

"Sheng Haitang, what a nice name."

After Xia Lin finished speaking, he suddenly felt that this name was familiar. He tilted his head to look at Sheng Haitang for a few times, then suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you know Shuixian?"

Sheng Haitang lowered her eyes: "I don't recognize him."

"Chuntao?"

"I don't recognize it."

"Qiu He?"

"I don't recognize it."

When Xia Lin said this, he suddenly took out a white jade token from his waist and said, "Do you recognize it?"

When Haitang saw the token, she was stunned at first, then she instantly adjusted her posture and knelt down with her butt raised high and her forehead pressed to the ground.

"Your subordinate Sheng Haitang, kowtows to Si Hou."

Xia Lin laughed when he heard this: "Get up, get up."

"Thank you, Si Hou."

After Haitang stood up, she stood beside Xia Lin with her head down. Xia Lin asked her to sit down: "If I say it's a complete coincidence, do you believe it?"

"I believe it. I believe everything Lord Sihou said."

"Do you know Narcissus?"

"Yes, Narcissus is my younger sister, four years younger than me. I haven't seen her for many years and I don't know where she is."

"Where's Chuntao?"

"Yes, but Chuntao doesn't train with my subordinates. She is more proficient in serving and caring for others."

"Qiu He?"

"I have only met Qiu He a few times. She entered the sect as a maid, so I am not familiar with her."

Damn it... Xia Lin cursed inwardly, because that old bastard Tian En left in such a hurry. He said that how could the emperor's family not have an underground network similar to that of aristocratic families, which forced him to build it himself. Now it seems that Tian En not only has it under his command, but it has probably already infiltrated every aspect of the entire Wei Dynasty.

Anyway, Xia Lin remembered that the old fellow Tian En seemed to be a top-notch master of the Imperial Palace. He forgot who mentioned this to him when chatting with him before. It was said that Tian En had been extremely powerful and brave since he was a child. Although he was a eunuch, ordinary people could not get close to him.

The ordinary characters here include Lao Guo and Li Jing when they were young.

It was estimated that Tian En did not expect that Emperor Hong Bao would leave so quickly at that time. He just handed the token to Xia Lin, but forgot to explain the hidden clues.

Sheng Haitang, isn't this a coincidence...

But it's no wonder, as they say there's no coincidence in a book, isn't Xia Lin in a book right now? It's just that this plot is something he didn't write out, it's hidden in the background of his worldview.

Abrupt but reasonable.

"Why didn't Narcissus mention that she had a sister like you?"

"When we were adopted, Narcissus was only two years old, and I never got along with her after that. The previous Si Hou once said that once you enter this door, you will cut off the worldly fireworks."

Xia Lin touched his chin and nodded: "It makes sense, this is what a spy should do. Then I have another question. I know why the Procuratorate calls me Si Hou, but why do you also call me Si Hou?"

Hearing this question, Haitang raised her head and stared at Xia Lin carefully, as if to verify whether this person was the real Xia Lin. After confirming, she lowered her head again: "There is one bright and two dark in the court, and the Inspection Department is the bright one. The other two dark ones are the Great Sima Ming and the Junior Sima Ming. The Sima Ming is in charge of the Inspection Department, and he is the Sima Ming of the Inspection Department, and this token is the order of the Great Sima Ming. Then, as the junior envoy of the Great Sima Ming, I naturally need to call you Sima Ming."

"Oh... old fellow Tian En." Xia Lin muttered, "Why did he tell me this? I thought there was only one Investigation Department..."

At this point, Haitang couldn't help laughing, but she quickly put away her smile, lowered her head and sat next to Xia Lin, not daring to say another word.

"What about Shao Siming?"

"I don't know." Haitang replied in a low voice: "The two Sima have their own duties and never work together. The Grand Sima is responsible for the interior, and the Junior Sima is responsible for the exterior. The Grand Sima is responsible for the rebellious ministers, the chaotic government, the chaotic people, and the people who disrupt the law in Wei. At the same time, he also has to defend against the enemy's spies and lobbyists."

"Oh, Shao Siming is responsible for external affairs, collecting and analyzing foreign intelligence, right? Is he also responsible for coordinating with the Honglu Temple to formulate diplomatic strategies, spy on enemy movements, and plan secret operations abroad?"

Xia Lin's words made Haitang's eyes light up: "Master Xia is really amazing."

So awesome is Gou Ba... Aren't these FBL and CLA? But now it's all old dog Tian En's fault. He didn't give him the list, so he has to start his intelligence system from scratch.

As for why Haitang was in the capital, but Narcissus said that she had disappeared for many years, Xia Lin could actually understand this.

Jinling City, the capital! One of the largest and most prosperous cities in the world, with a population of over a million, which is not much different from the size of the real Chang'an City in history. Even when Xia Lin came here, the population of Chang'an District in Xianchang was more than 1.6 million, which is not much different from the current Jinling City.

With such a population size, it would be difficult to meet your white moonlight again if you didn't take the initiative to look for him/her and just let chance take its course, even if both of you stayed here forever.

"I've heard of your name a long time ago, but I didn't expect to meet you under such circumstances." Xia Lin propped up his chin and looked at Haitang: "I heard that your swordsmanship is the best in the world, right?"

"Don't dare to take it seriously."

Xia Lin waved his hand: "Practice with me."

"This……"

"It's okay." Xia Lin stood up: "Don't let go."

After only two rounds, Xia Lin was pinned to the bed by Haitang, who was unarmed. She originally wanted to throw Xia Lin directly to the ground, but she didn't dare to do it. If she was hurt by this precious Si Hou, she really couldn't afford the loss of her life.

"Very good." Xia Lin pushed Haitang away, held his waist and cried out in pain: "Ouch..."

"Si Hou, are you okay..." Haitang hurriedly went over to support him.

"It's okay, I deserve it." Xia Lin held his waist and limped out: "This place is unlucky for me, come with me."

I have to say, Haitang is really amazing. No wonder the Living King of Hell recommended her first. This woman's skills are absolutely top-notch. She may still be far from the golden legendary cards like Luo Shixin, Qin Qiong, and Cheng Yaojin, but looking around, there are probably not many people in the world who can beat her.

Xia Lin could barely put up a fight in his peak condition, but now he has been wasting so many years and he really can't win.

When he was supported by Haitang and walked down the stairs, the living devil couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw his posture, and then kept giving Xia Lin a thumbs up.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious. Lord Xia is worthy of being Lord Xia. It only took him a short time to deal with the strongest female demon in the underground world of Jinling City.

Back pain is nothing. If you tell others about this, it will be a medal of manliness.

You have to know that the Jinfenlou opened by this she-devil is a brothel. She meets so many men every day, including high-ranking officials and brave warriors, but I have never heard of her letting anyone succeed.

As expected of Master Xia... Awesome, awesome. I admire you so much!
A carriage was called in front, and Xia Lin got on the carriage directly in front of the Jinfenlou gate. Haitang sat next to him, and the two of them went all the way to Xia Lin's villa.

On the road, Haitang always seemed very shy. She never dared to talk to Xia Lin directly and always maintained a question-and-answer mode.

"By the way, Haitang. Since you are the Great God of Destiny, have you ever heard of the most popular courtesan at the moment, the one named Hongxiu?"

"Liang Hongxiu."

"Yes." Xia Lin nodded: "She seems to be from the Dugu family in the north, right?"

"The details are still unknown. Right now, the Great Sima is in chaos. There is a lack of a leader to take the lead. Everyone is lying low, waiting to be called. Naturally, intelligence is not flowing."

"Yes." Xia Lin nodded. "After you come with me to the villa, we will discuss how to reawaken the Great and Young Siming. Then I will have a brand new yamen here, and you will all be incorporated into the new yamen. I need a yamen that is independent of the three provinces, six ministries, nine temples, five prisons, twelve guards, four prefectures and one government."

"I will follow Si Hou's orders."

The carriage clattered to the villa, and Xia Lin and Haitang walked in. This place was not only secluded but also sparsely populated. There were spies everywhere, and even a fly that wanted to fly in could be identified as male or female. It could be said that this place was the safest place in the entire Jinling City.

"I still have many questions to ask you, but they are not important now. You can definitely write, right? Write me a plan for awakening the Great Simian, as well as how much money and how many people are needed to recruit the Great Simian, etc." Xia Lin threw the white jade sign in front of her: "You will be given seven days."

"Thank you Si Hou for your appreciation. Haitang will start now."

"Oh, right." Xia Lin suddenly looked up and asked, "Do you have any files or records for handling cases? If so, bring some to me. I want to see what procedures you usually follow when carrying out your duties."

"I will ask someone to bring the letter here. Please wait for a moment."
