Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 18 Intertwined Roots
In addition to Tianji Sect and Cang Sheng Mountain, Wanyuan Sect and Ming Ye Pavilion, which are established in martial arts, belong to the martial arts world.

Although they are both forces created by force, they are different.

Wanyuan Sect is known as a well-known and upright sect, and its mission is to punish evil, promote good and support justice, so it has greater reputation and power.

Ming Ye Pavilion is more spontaneous and does things based on preference. All the killers in the pavilion are highly skilled in martial arts. As long as Ming Ye Pavilion takes over the task, they never fail. The master of the pavilion is also honored as Hades.

Although the two forces dislike each other and occasionally have minor frictions, they have never had any major conflicts.

If people in the world have a respectful impression of Wanyuan Sect, they are more afraid of Mingye Pavilion.

The next step is to rely on abundant funds to become famous in the world. The Xue family, the largest salt merchant, and the largest grain store are all together.

The Xue family is the richest man and an imperial merchant in Tianchu. The taxes they pay to Tianchu every year account for more than half of all taxes. More than [-]% of the money in Tianchu's treasury is earned by the Xue family, so although the Xue family is a businessman , the imperial court gave him an official title from a first-class official to a serious imperial merchant. Although he had no real power, most of the people he interacted with were high-ranking officials and dignitaries, which could be described as an honor.

The Qi family is the largest grain store. Although it is not as good as the Xue family, it is still the pillar industry of Tianchu, and it often interacts with dignitaries.

The Xue and Qi families were extremely wealthy. Although they had no power, their money opened the way. There were many people working for them in the court and in the arena, so they were considered a very powerful force.

Looking at the court, the largest number of military personnel are undoubtedly the Gu family, the Han family, and the Yue family.

The Gu family army is under the command of Lin Jinyan's grandfather Gu Hongzhang. The Gu family has served as generals in the army for generations and guards the northern border of Tianchu.There are more than [-] Gu family troops, and they are the most elite army in Tianchu. His Majesty Gu Hongzhang has personally granted the title of General of Dingbei University and ranks among the three nobles.

The head of the Han family, General Han Yaohui of Zhenxi, is the uncle of the third prince Chu Chengye. He has 20 troops under his command to guard the western border of Tianchu.

The head of the Yue family, Pingnan General Yue Jianlin, has 15 troops under his command to guard the southern border of Tianchu.

Then there are the garrisons from various places to protect the safety of the country. The most is the capital city of Tai'an, with [-] city guards and [-] imperial guards in the palace.

A hundred miles east of Tai'an City, near the royal hunting ground, there are still [-] Ding'an troops stationed. The Ding'an army, city guard army and imperial guards are directly under the jurisdiction of the royal family. In addition to the fixed commander, the princes take turns to supervise the change of defense.

Lin Jinyan frowned and thought: In her previous life, she was an example of a noble girl from a noble family, and she studied music, chess, calligraphy, and painting as a female red housekeeper.We only know the general situation about these forces that everyone knows, but we don't know the details. These forces are so intertwined that any careless contact will arouse people's suspicion.Where should I start?

While I was deep in thought, a head appeared outside the window:
"Yan'er, why are you so dazed?"

Lin Jinyan suddenly came back to her senses and saw Lin Jin'an with her hair tied in two buns, her hair falling on her shoulders, holding the window frame with both hands and looking at her with a puzzled expression.

Lin Jinyan smiled when she looked at such a young and cute brother, and remembered all the things in her past life, and couldn't help but blush.

Seeing this scene, Lin Jinan looked panicked: "Are you going to laugh or cry? You don't dare to cry anymore. Last time you cried so much that you had a high fever for two days. Did my brother scare you?"

Lin Jinyan sniffed, suppressed her emotions, stood up and said with a smile:
"I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you. Why didn't you call me when you came into the yard? I didn't even know you were here."

Lin Jinan: "How long has it been? I came to see you yesterday, but you didn't answer me when I came in and called several times."

Lin Jinyan smiled and asked Lin Jinan to come into the house, and went to greet him at the door.
