At the end of the fourth lunar month, Zhao Wenjian stepped off the train.

Is this Tongzhou?

Zhao Wenjian looked at the train station in this big city with some excitement, he stepped down from the high platform, walked towards the exit with regular steps.

The people around were all well dressed, and some of the soldiers were dressed and looked very spirited, and there was not a single ugly one, which was obviously the kind that had been screened.

Zhao Wenjian, who was born in a meritorious aristocratic family, understands very well, sometimes appearance is really important, and ugly people have to avoid the officials.

Not only that, but it's the same when you are an official, officialdom pays attention to etiquette, first of all, this appearance is part of etiquette.

One of the requirements for being an official is appearance, which is a basic thing, and it is not discrimination.

Just like the Knight of Hell, when something is something that has become a lot of well-known things, then it can't be said to be discrimination, even if others talk about it in front of you, it's a joke, can you be angry.

Being an official needs to look at the appearance of this, which is a literal rule.

The imperial court believes that officials are the face of the imperial court and represent the prestige of the imperial court, so the requirements for the physical appearance of officials are relatively strict, whether they are college students or official students in schools.

Wang Lanling can see beautiful women casually in school, and that is also the result of screening, and ugly women are even more unlikely to be officials.

For example, the guards at railway stations and military locations are selected for the kind of soldiers who are capable and good-looking.

Not only do officials need looks, but also soldiers, who have crooked mouths and squinted eyes and noses all their lives, are cannon fodder soldiers, and have no opportunity to travel and stand guard as a driver.

This era is cruel, and being ugly is wrong.

"Wang! Barking! Woohoo! A dog barking came from twenty meters away, and I saw a Tongzhou dog leashed on a pillar barking wildly, struggling to break free from the chain and bite over.

The barking of dogs attracted the attention of many people, as well as the attention of nearby guards.

"Take out your ID card and road guide!!"

Zhao Wenjian didn't take a few steps before he was stopped, and a middle-aged soldier with a Chinese face looked at Zhao Wenjian and asked him to show his certificate.

Zhao Wenjian's appearance is actually okay, and being interrogated is not a matter of appearance.

"Good!" Zhao Wenjian didn't realize his problem, and quickly took out his road guide and ID card from his pocket and handed them over politely.

After the guard officer saw that it was someone from Yunzhou, and that the place he was going to visit relatives at the management school, he returned the certificate.

"The exit is on the left, go forward for two hundred meters, pass an underground hall from the stairs on the left, and ask someone after you go out to find the carriage to the official school."

Zhao Wenjian put away the road guide and ID card, and said happily: "Okay, thank you!" ”

After leaving the train station according to the instructions of the guard, Zhao Wenjian looked at the magnificent buildings around him with admiration.

The underground hall is very big, and there are still many passages that I don't know where to turn around, but fortunately, Zhao Wenjian still followed the main road and walked to the outside.

The refreshing spring breeze is coming, and Zhao Wenjian is surrounded by many people who have just gotten off the train.

"Take out your ID card and road guide!!"

Another patrolling soldier spotted Zhao Wenjian.

Zhao Wenjian quickly handed over the things again, and at the same time looked at the people around him curiously.

The people around him didn't pay attention to what was going on here, and they all hurried past them.

The soldier checked that there was no problem, so he let Zhao Wenjian leave, and by the way, he also told him how to go to the car booth and wait for the car.

The kiosk is a carport with two rows of seats and stalls selling pancakes, oil tea, and tea newspapers.

Zhao Wenjian saw many young people waiting for the bus, and after seeing a woman walking past him, he quickly said, "Hello this young lady, may I ask ......?"

The woman stopped and said directly: "After the car arrives, you can get in the car and pay, if you eat, you can go east, there is a restaurant there, if you come to Tongzhou for the first time, it is recommended to try it, I still have something to do." ”

Soon the woman left, leaving behind Zhao Wenjian, who was caught off guard.

Zhao Wenjian walked to the booth and stood for a while, then looked around.

Soon he walked up to a young man who was reading a newspaper and said, "Hello brother. ”

The young man looked at Zhao Wenjian, and after taking a look, he put away the newspaper and said, "Hello, where are you going?" It's the first time I've come to Tongzhou. ”

Zhao Wenjian felt very puzzled, Wang Lanling's letter did not say that there were so many inspections here, just to remind him to dress better.

After all, it's going out, of course Zhao Wenjian will dress better, do you need to be reminded?

"Why do you think I'm coming to Tongzhou for the first time? My accent is the same as yours, and it's all serious Mandarin. ”

Zhao Wenjian felt very confused and puzzled.

The young man smiled, glanced up and down at Zhao Wenjian's sportswear and big leather shoes, as well as the crocodile leather belt around his waist, and said helplessly: "You said yes, that's it." ”

Zhao Wenjian felt humiliated and felt that the people around him were discriminating against him.

What went wrong? Am I not dressed well enough?

When he got into the car, the driver looked at Zhao Wenjian with suspicious eyes.

"Bring your ID card and road guide, I'll take a look."

Zhao Wenjian silently took out the certificate, and sat quietly after getting into the car.

The carriage turned around at several stops, during which Zhao Wenjian was interrogated to the point of being autistic, and no one else checked, so he was checked.

After getting off the bus at the gate of the school, Zhao Wenjian took the initiative to take the certificate and said to the person standing guard at the door: "This is my proof, my brother-in-law is studying here, and I came to him for something." ”

The person standing guard glanced at Zhao Wenjian and said directly: "I don't care about this, go over there to find someone in uniform." ”

Zhao Wenjian breathed a sigh of relief, took the initiative to confess and passively accepted the inspection, the feeling was different, and the other party didn't look at his own path.

Soon Zhao Wenjian found the beautiful girls in uniform, who were wearing white military uniforms with their names written on them.

Male students are responsible for some of the school's dealings with the government, including with the rest of the state, while women are responsible for trivial matters, including foreign affairs such as visiting relatives.

Wang Lanling is still very well-known in this school, and after the receptionist saw the contact person on the pass and Zhao Wenjian's ID card of Yunshui County, he quickly sent someone to call Wang Lanling.

"Brother, you're here, and that's what the letter says about these two days."

Wang Lanling came to the door and greeted Zhao Wenjian after seeing him.

After Zhao Wenjian saw Wang Lanling, he said with emotion: "Everyone in the family is good, but I am worried about you, and I am relieved to see that you are much fatter than before, but my complexion is a little bad, and I don't have to study too hard." ”

Wang Lanling was a little embarrassed, he had been playing too much recently, but now he has begun to restrain himself.

It's still physically unstable, and it's time to relax when the internal strength and body are about the same.

The great relaxation after the great precept is inherently prone to problems.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a while ago, and it's been much better these days."

Wang Lanling casually ended the topic and continued: "Let's go in and talk." ”

Zhao Wenjian nodded, "Okay." ”

Wang Lanling made a registration with the beautiful sister involved in the outside world, because there is no need to stay overnight, just sign a little.

Zhao Wenjian and Wang Lanling entered the steam car together, and after getting into the car, they said, "You still have this car in your school!" There are also in Yunshui County, and I thought there would be more advanced cars here! ”

Wang Lanling smiled and said: "This is my car, the car that others gave me some time ago originally had watches and clothes, but I didn't go out, so I basically didn't use it." ”

Zhao Wenjian said curiously: "Who sent it?" So generous! ”

Wang Lanling explained a little, and didn't say anything about himself and Jiang Zhenhai, but just said a little about some powerful people who wooed him and sent these.

Soon, Wang Lanling transferred to the affairs of Heishui County, wanting to know some things about Heishui County and Yunshui County from Zhao Wenjian.

Zhao Wenjian quickly said: "I have something to tell you, although there is a new county guard in the county, Jiang Xinzhi's granddaughter is still in Yunshui County, and she is married to Tong Yuming, and her fief is going to Heishui County, I estimate that this is what Tong Yuming meant." ”

Wang Lanling didn't know about this, and was suddenly shocked at this time.

What he is most afraid of is this kind of thing, Heishui County is his territory, and Wang Lanling is not afraid of fighting with the rest of the officials, what he is most afraid of is the Jiang family who clearly wants to get benefits!

There is no reason between the Jiang family and the Jiang family, even if it is useless to sue the emperor.

"The county lord...... It should be an unimportant granddaughter, right? Wang Lanling didn't know how many granddaughters Jiang Xinzhi had, let alone the other party's genealogy.

Zhao Wenjian nodded, "Those who are close to each other have gone to Longzhou to enjoy their blessings, and those who stay are some people who are not very valued, Tong Yuming hooked up with her after she was stayed, I am afraid that I will take revenge on you." ”

Wang Lanling felt that his head was big, this kind of thing was completely incomprehensible, that person named Tong Yuming, where did he offend him? Why do you do such things that harm others and yourself?

Is the woman of the Jiang family so good?

There is no solution at all, even if he asks the rest of the Jiang family for help, it is just to drive away the wild dogs and attract jackals, Wang Lanling does not want others to know this place in Heishui County.

Once the Jiang family's eyes were attracted to this emerging city, then Wang Lanling was like wearing shackles, and all kinds of plans could not be carried out.

O grandson!

Wang Lanling was very angry and worried.

The officials fought with the Jiang family, asking for trouble, and they were not happy to find themselves.

Until he entered the clubhouse, Wang Lanling couldn't think of a way to solve this problem, so he couldn't figure it out, why did the person named Tong Yuming deal with him?

If you don't understand, you don't want to, Wang Lanling first entertained Zhao Wenjian to drink and eat, and understood some problems in detail.

Eleven of the twelve women in the clubhouse were of different races.

Zhao Wenjian felt very uncomfortable, especially the black race of Elena, which seemed to him to be like a mountain ghost.

When it was almost time to eat and drink, Zhao Wenjian said: "You have been studying for a long time, you should also relax and relax, I heard my mother say, there are many women of different races here in you, and my father and mother also told me when I came over, let me talk to you, it is better to find some good girls." ”

In the eyes of the Zhao family, Wang Lanling has been mixed with these women of different races all day long, and the reputation will be very bad.

Others use this as a talking point to laugh about, and when the time comes, Wang Lanling's reputation will be lowered and dismissed as a joke.

For a promising official, reputation is sometimes a very, very valuable asset, and it is extremely difficult to wash it after it has been stained.

Wang Lanling explained: "I know this, these are all things that I do alone when I am at home, and when I go out to a dance party or other things, I will find some official ladies from Tongzhou to go with me." ”

This is indeed the case, to participate in balls and dinners, or other activities, Wang Lanling always goes with an official lady he knows.

Although Xiao Ai is smart, she doesn't have enough knowledge, and it is easy to expose problems when she participates in some dance parties and high-level social things, and her identity is easy to be discussed.

Zhao Wenjian nodded, "Then I'll be relieved." ”

Wang Lanling asked some more things and learned some views and opinions with Zhao Wenjian.

After handing over 30,000 yuan to Zhao Wenjian, Wang Lanling said: "You are good in Yunzhou, but you are incompatible with the Tongzhou people outside here, and it is easy to be censored. ”

Zhao Wenjian only realized the problem at this time, but he was still very puzzled, "My clothes are not cheap, I am from Tongzhou when I wear a windbreaker?" ”

Wang Lanling smiled, "You'll know on the way." ”

Zhao Wenjian didn't want to take Wang Lanling's clothes, and said, "I'll just buy one myself." ”

Wang Lanling stood up and said with a smile: "You're welcome, I also received a lot of clothes and leather shoes from your husband and wife, what's wrong with giving you a few clothes?" You can also wash your hair, and you have to spray some oil on your hair, and I also have men's perfume here. ”

Zhao Wenjian also remembered that he and his wife did give Wang Lanling a lot of things, and they didn't understand the preferences of Tongzhou people, so he accepted Wang Lanling's kindness.

After dressing up a little, Zhao Wenjian left the official school with food, money and letters.

On the way, he was not interrogated, and even the Tongzhou dog ignored him.
