In the end, Wang Teng was forced to hand over the part he had swallowed in the last three years, which was enough for 150 million amethyst coins, and even so, it only made up less than 30%.

Ling Feng carefully checked, there were 1,200 state cities under the rule of the main city of Wuwei, and most of them were Shangzhou and Zhongzhou. Each state city is larger than the Song State and other principalities, and more prosperous, the average annual tax is 500,000 amethyst coins, the total annual tax is about 600 million amethyst coins, deducting the central and local financial expenditures handed over to the Haoyang Imperial Dynasty, the annual balance of the main city is about 150 million, which deducts the upper and lower points, he can embezzle 50 million amethyst coins every year.

If it is the kind of marquis of the West Wind Marquis, the territory has been given to him, and it is perennial. In general, the position of the lord of the main city is once every ten years. Wang Teng has been in office for eight years, and the amount of embezzled money is more than 400 million, except for this 150 million, the rest has long been used up by Wang Teng's cultivation, and it is impossible to hand it over easily.

Ling Feng did not continue to be embarrassed, and the handover of officials, as long as the books were passable, was basically not too difficult. Otherwise, it's really annoying, and it's also troublesome. The most important thing is that he has not officially taken office, and if something happens, it will be troublesome, so it is better to hand over the post first, and there will be means to deal with this person in the future.

After Wang Teng's handover, he hurriedly returned to Xiliang Wangcheng to report on his work. Of course, he would not forget Ling Feng's humiliation of him, and once he had the opportunity, he would definitely do something to Ling Feng.

Due to its huge territory, the Haoyang Imperial Dynasty was divided into seven administrative units: county, county, state, province, government (royal city), imperial city, and imperial capital. The county order is seven products, the county guards five products, the state thorn history is from the third and fourth products, and a section is the second product. After Ling Feng handed over, he officially obtained the position of the city lord, and at the same time he was a chief, the envoy of the second grade, and controlled the military and political power of a place.

However, most of the officials in Wuwei City are Wang Teng's cronies who have been promoted, or people from local wealthy families, although he has now taken office, he has no henchmen, and the decree is not passable, not to mention that the decree reaches the state capital, even if it is in the main city, the officials at all levels must be yang and yin. Therefore, if he wants to be in power, he must find a way to win over and promote a wave of his own people.

But at this time, the position is already full, how to install his own people, how to promote? Although the Jiedu envoy has the military and political power, it is not possible to do anything wrong, and there are also secret agents of the imperial court to supervise. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate, investigate favoritism, and corruption.

Immediately, he summoned Concubine You and Haruko, and said, "You immediately take people to investigate the commanders of the five battalions, and be sure to find evidence of their corruption and favoritism!"

There are a total of 100,000 soldiers in Wuwei City, all of whom are above the level of the early stage of Wuzong, divided into five battalions of soldiers and horses, including front, rear, left, right, and middle army, with 20,000 people in each battalion. The other four battalions were responsible for patrolling the four gates of the main city in turn, and the commanders above were all commanders. Although this military camp is nominally under his direct control, the original commander is Wang Teng's confidant, and it is inevitable that he will not listen to him easily. Therefore, he had to check! And the reason why he checked the commander of the five battalions first was because he had the military power in hand, and it was more convenient to start with it.

Concubine You smiled: "Your Excellency, rest assured, I promise to complete the task!"

Immediately, he summoned Chu Lingyue again and said, "You take a team of dragon guards to the Moon God Palace to meet Yan Bingyun and Mingyu, explain the reason, and say that the wedding will be postponed for a month." Also, don't forget to bring another generous gift to come back and reimburse you!"

At this time, half a year has passed, Mingyu has already left the customs, and it is time to get married. Originally, his plan was to prepare for the wedding when he came back, but Dean Hong gave him a surprise, so he could only deal with the affairs in the main city of Wuwei first, and then go to get married, and one month was already the shortest time.

When Chu Lingyue heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Guarantee to complete the task!"

She thought in her heart, how to get some benefits, she is now in the Great Sage realm, and every step of improvement requires a lot of resources.

Then, Ling Feng sent Jiang Yuelong and Qianqi to lead the shadow guard to investigate many officials of the Political Envoy Department and the Punishment and Prosecution Department. The administrative unit at the provincial level, the Jiedu envoy is the highest commander, but there are three divisions below the command of the envoy, the political envoy, and the criminal prosecution department, which manage the military, politics, and criminal prison powers respectively. Therefore, he checked their details in advance, which ones are available, those that can be co-opted, those that must be eradicated, and those that can be kept temporarily, and those that must be removed.

......

Three days later, the Chinese military camp.

In the camp, a middle-aged man in golden armor was drinking and having fun with two graceful women dressed in white tulle, holding one in one hand, so unhappy.

Suddenly, a young soldier in armor hurriedly came in, clasped his fists and said, "Lord Commander, Jiedu will summon your lordship!"

Jin Jia's middle-aged face showed hesitation, and said coldly, "Don't you see that I'm drinking?" When you go to reply, you will say that General Ben is sick in bed and can't go to see him. If anyone dares to trespass into the barracks, there will be no mercy!"

However, the young soldier did not reply.

The middle-aged man in Jin Jia was immediately furious, and said, "Dog minion, did you hear General Ben's order? Believe it or not, General Ben beheaded your dog!"

At this time, a spatial fluctuation flashed, and Ling Feng's figure suddenly appeared at the door of the camp tent, and said coldly: "Commander Lu, this official did hear it, you drank and took prostitutes in the military camp, violated military law, and deceived the superiors and bullied your subordinates, what kind of crime do you say you should be!"

Jin Jia's middle-aged name is Lu Dai, and he is also the commander of the Chinese military camp, although he has not met Ling Feng, the envoy of the festival, but he has seen his portrait, plus a cyan official uniform and official hat, he immediately recognized it, so a cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

Fortunately, he was also a character who had experienced strong winds and waves, and immediately knelt down and said: "The lowly duty is the envoy of the festival, and the lowly duty is a ghost for a while, and I ask the lord to forgive the sin!"

Ling Feng said coldly: "If you want to beg for mercy now, it's too late, let's go to the prison of the Criminal Department to beg for mercy!"

Seeing this, Lu Dai stood up abruptly and said coldly: "You trespass into the barracks, and you are also violating military law, and if you really make trouble at the top, don't think about it! Besides, this is just your false accusation, who can testify? Just by the words of the pawn next to you, the above will not believe you!"

At this time, another middle-aged general in golden armor appeared at the door of the camp tent and said coldly: "The last general can testify!"

Lu Dai's face suddenly changed drastically, and his expression was gloomy: "Deng Jiufeng, this commander treats you well, you are actually ungrateful!"

Deng Jiufeng said coldly: "Even if you eat empty salaries, you actually deduct the military salaries of the brothers, which is simply inferior to livestock! At that time, it was still Wang Teng's dog official who was in charge, and the brothers dared not speak out! At this time, Lord Ling is willing to make the decision for us, and we have already handed over 1510 of the evidence of your crime, so you don't want to deny it!"

Seeing this, Lu Dai suddenly drew his knife and slashed at Deng Jiufeng, as long as Deng Jiufeng, the deputy commander, died, he still had the final say in the military camp.

However, at this moment, Ling Feng was as fast as lightning, and a finger was pointed at his body, instantly sealing his Martial Venerable Peak cultivation level in an instant.

Immediately, Deng Jiufeng kicked him away and ordered the soldiers to take him into custody.

Subsequently, Ling Feng ordered Deng Jiufeng to temporarily act as the commander of the Central Military Battalion, and then led people to the other four battalions. Although the commanders of the other four battalions were not as arrogant as Lu Dai, drinking and detaining prostitutes in the barracks, he had already found out in the past three days, and they all had empty salaries, and the number was full of thirty percent. With such a serious crime, how could he be spared, all of them were taken down by Ling Feng, and he temporarily took charge of the army as the deputy commander.
