Beauty and the Bodyguard

   Chapter 9363

  "This is not the main courtyard of the Wang family, but a separate courtyard dedicated to guards. Brother Lin, you can understand it as the concierge of the Wang family."

  Tao Baibai leaned over to explain to Lin Yi in a low voice.

  I don’t know if it’s because of bad luck or luck. Because the position was relatively close just now, although this guy didn't participate in the group fight, he was also driven in.

  Wait until everyone entered the courtyard, the door slowly closed.

  A group of Great Perfection guards scattered away, and they actually threw Lin Yi's people on the spot, just let go.

  Everyone could not help but look at each other.

The reason why they are willing to cooperate in this way is actually because they expected that smoking men would not really do anything to them. After all, no matter how arrogant the Wang family is, they would not dare to set up private punishment halls. That is to fight the city lord’s mansion. s face.

   In the final analysis, it is the city lord’s mansion that really stands at the top of the Jianghai Pyramid, not a certain family or a certain clan.

   But even if you are more determined in your heart, everyone is still a bit at a loss when you come in and are so ignored.

Especially with such a fierce **** like Lin Yi, everyone is even more trembling, for fear that this guy will suddenly go crazy. After all, it was clear that he has already aroused his fierceness just now. If the members of the Wang family deliberately ignore it, they will all. It is not impossible to be abolished.

The lessons learned from Xiao Bawang and the bald man are right in front of them.

  Lin Yi didn't bother to take care of them, and walked to a secluded corner of the yard, and sat down in time.

Tao Baibai did what he learned, and sat with him. With his strength and family background, he was destined to not get along with the other group of people. Even if he leaned forward, he would only be boring. It would be better to accompany Lin Yi. Chat.

  Lin Yi was so happy. Although Tao Baibai said that his level is limited and his insights on many things may not be so profound, he wins because he is a local snake and has some understanding of all aspects of the river.

  And these common sense things are exactly what Lin Yi needs most right now, and maybe he will use it some time later.

   "The King of Nanjiang?"

Hearing the question that Lin Yi seemed to raise casually, Tao Baibai was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The four kings have a high status in Jianghai, and they are only under the city lord’s mansion in name. They are in charge of Jianghai Quartet and have great discretion. In many things, even the City Lord’s Mansion can only open one eye and close one eye."

  Lin Yi asked thoughtfully: "Then, literally, the four kings of Jianghai should be the subordinate institutions of the City Lord's Mansion?"

   "It can be regarded as, but not quite."

  Tao Baibai explained: “In nominal terms, the four kings of Jianghai are indeed subordinate institutions of the city lord’s mansion, and the candidates are personally appointed by the city lord himself, but in fact, the existence of the four kings is actually a compromise between the city lord’s mansion and the local forces."

   "Compromise?"

"Yes, the City Lord's Mansion exchanges the selection of the four great kings in exchange for the full support of the Jianghai local forces for the City Lord's Mansion. Otherwise, only relying on the City Lord's Mansion itself, many government decrees cannot be implemented at all. ."

Speaking of this, Tao Baibai suddenly lowered his voice: "I have heard a rumor that the current city lord has always wanted to abolish the four kings of the river and sea and return all power to the city lord’s mansion, but he was strongly counterattacked by the local forces. After a stalemate, it was finally gone."

  Lin Yi slightly narrowed his eyes. This is valuable news, but its authenticity needs to be verified.

   "According to you, the four kings and Jianghai's local forces are completely monolithic?"

  Lin Yi continued to ask with great interest.

Tao Baibai shook his head: "That's not necessarily true. The Four Kings are indeed representatives of the Jianghai local forces. They must act in line with the local forces on many major events, but you must know, Brother Lin, the Jianghai local forces themselves. It's not a monolithic one, the internal factions are extremely complicated."

  "In addition to being able to reluctantly hold a group when facing a huge external threat like the City Lord’s Mansion, internal fighting is the main theme at other times. It is a real life-and-death struggle. It is common for human brains to play dogs."

   "Then what is the situation of King Nanjiang, Brother Tao, please tell me?"

   Lin Yi asked.

  Before the tigers, You Ci'er said that they would deal with each other, but it is still unknown what they can deal with. Lin Yi must plan ahead for the rainy day.

  Even if he doesn't provoke others, Nanjiang King is likely to stare at him, taking this opportunity to find out the details of the other party, there is nothing wrong.

   "Brother Lin, you seem to care about King Nanjiang? Do you have a holiday with him?"

  Tao Baibai couldn't help but warn with some doubts.

  Lin Yi replied casually: "I can't say that it's the festival, but I came across his hand to collect protection fees, so I was more impressed."

"It turns out that, among the four kings of Jianghai, King Nanjiang is indeed the one with the worst reputation. Indulging his subordinates to collect protection fees everywhere has become his label. It has caused public resentment, from the city lord’s mansion to the local forces of various parties. This is a deep pain and sickness, but it is a pity that the King of Nanjiang has always been his own way, and has not changed after repeated teachings."

  Tao Baibai also hated this when he talked about it.

In other words, as long as you live in Jianghainan District, if there is no big family backing behind it, almost everyone will not be able to escape the fate of being charged for protection. To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a tax unique to the southern district, and most people simply avoid it. Avoidable.

   Lin Yi frowned: "Then no one can cure him?"

  Use your toes to think and know that such a person sitting in the position of Nanjiang King will inevitably have huge damage to the reputation of the City Lord’s Mansion or the local forces. It is reasonable and must be replaced.

   "Hey, although this king of Nanjiang is acting assholes, he is not a real stupid person, on the contrary, he is a very good researcher. He has offended a large number of people and attracted a large number of people. The network behind him is intricate and deep-rooted."

Tao Bai said with a sigh: "The voice of King Nanjiang has never stopped over the years. I heard people say that the City Lord’s Mansion had almost reached an agreement with the local forces and decided to dismiss King Nanjiang. The news that the current city lord wanted to abolish the four kings suddenly broke out when he was kicking his feet. At that time, he almost broke with the local forces, and then it was gone."

  After hearing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

  From this point of view, the King of Nanjiang is by no means easy to follow, on the contrary, he is a tricky figure with hands and eyes open to the sky.

  The foundation is not stable when I first arrived, and I really have to be forced to confront such a character. I am afraid that the prospects are really unpredictable.
