After all, the county seat cannot be compared with the urban area, and it is far from being compared with the provincial capital and the imperial capital.

As a small county town under the jurisdiction of the Central Plains Province, Longqi County has long been deserted on Chinese New Year's Eve, and those who go to work or do business have closed their doors and gathered at home to reunite with their relatives.

When Chen Lan drove Mu Qing into the streets of the county seat, he searched for a long time before finding a mid-range restaurant that was still open.

The two got out of the car and asked for a simple plain noodles, planning to fill their stomachs and continue to hurry, from the county seat to Huangliang Village, it will take almost an hour to travel, but this section of the road is quite rugged, coupled with heavy snow and water, the road will inevitably become more and more difficult to walk.

Fortunately, this time Liang Liang prepared a special model of military off-road vehicle for them, which is more than enough to deal with these bad road conditions.

The waiters at this mid-range restaurant have gone home from vacation to entertain the restaurateur's wife and a daughter who has just started college this year.

Because today is Chinese New Year's Eve, there are only a few scattered tables of guests in the huge restaurant, which seems quite deserted.

However, as soon as Chen Lan and Mu Qing had just eaten half of their somen noodles, they saw a team of policemen walking in menacingly, and the shopkeeper and his wife thought they were going to eat, so they hurriedly stepped forward to entertain them, but they were pushed out by several policemen and scolded: "It's none of your business, a few brothers will handle the case today!"

The owner and his wife are obviously a little flustered, what should they do if the case is handled in their own restaurant during the Chinese New Year?

At this time, a burly middle-aged policeman led by him swept his eyes and said loudly: "Who is that military vehicle outside?"

Chen Lan, who was sucking noodles, was stunned, got up and said, "Mine." ”

After a while, all the policemen looked at it, and then the middle-aged policeman coughed dryly, took out his ID and lit it up, and said, "Friend, now I suspect that you are hanging up fake military cards without permission, so come with us." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and several policemen rushed over like wolves and tigers, about to control Chen Lan.

"You dare!"

Mu Qing slapped the table, got up and glared at the middle-aged police officer angrily, and said, "Hang fake military badges privately? Are you sure that what you said is evidence? I now doubt that you are a group of fake police officers in uniform!"

She was really a little annoyed in her heart, she was just looking for a place to eat, but this kind of thing suddenly happened, this big New Year, who will be happy in her heart?

Mu Qing looks beautiful, she is not from a small county town at first glance, and her fluent imperial capital accent makes the middle-aged police officer stunned.

Immediately, the middle-aged policeman sneered: "Whether it's true or not, it's clear at a glance when I bring you into the bureau." This young lady, I advise you to go with us obediently, if you dare to resist, it will be tantamount to openly provoking the laws of the country, then don't blame the brothers for using force!"

Mu Qing took out his mobile phone, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, wait for me to make a call first!"

Syllable!

Before the phone call was made, he was snatched away by a policeman next to him, and said: "During the law enforcement period, you must not interfere with the order of handling the case! You can also call if you want, and when you go back to the bureau with us, ask us about the facts of your crime, and let you call as you please." ”

Mu Qing was so angry that her face turned pale, she didn't know what to do, she was from the imperial capital, she came to this remote small county town, and met a group of wolf-like policemen, how would she know what to do?

"Take them away!"

The middle-aged policeman smiled contemptuously at Mu Qing and gave an order.

The restaurant owner and his wife next to him had long been stunned, how could they have thought that this couple of men and women who were dining at home would commit a crime on Chinese New Year's Eve and hang fake military cards privately? What kind of big deal is this, and I have never seen these old fritters-like policemen so diligent.

It's Chinese New Year's Eve, isn't the police New Year's Eve?

With years of life experience, the restaurant owner and his wife can see at once that this young man and woman are probably being targeted by this group of police, perhaps offending someone who should not be offended.

For a moment, they looked at Chen Lan and the two of them with a hint of pity.

They can see this, Chen Lan can naturally see it, the reason why he was silent just now is that he has been thinking, who is behind this, this is Longqi County, today is still Chinese New Year's Eve, which bastard hates himself so much, he has to come to trouble himself today?

Seeing that a group of policemen were surrounding him, they were about to control himself and Mu Qing indiscriminately, and Chen Lan couldn't help but feel a trace of anger in his heart.

He is indeed very introverted and wooden, and he really never likes to cause any trouble, but it doesn't mean that he has no anger.

The clay man still has three points of earthiness, not to mention him Chen Lan?

The current situation has indeed reached the point where it is unbearable.

Chen Lan raised his hand to protect Mu Qing behind him, and when he raised his head again, there was no longer any temperature in his eyes.

The police are for the people, but when these people bend the law for personal gain and are used as gunmen by others, they are no longer a qualified policeman.

"Everyone, for the New Year, I think it's better to forget about this matter. ”

At this moment, a man at a table next to him got up and walked over, wearing a trench coat, looking suave, and holding a mobile phone in his hand.

"Friend, we are on a mission, you better stay aside, if we disrupt our operation, even you will be in the game!"

The middle-aged policeman scolded.

The man in the windbreaker smiled, handed over the phone in his hand, and said, "Your name is Zhao Dabao, I was only transferred to the deputy director of the Longqi County Police Department last year, and this call is for you." ”

The middle-aged policeman was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took the phone and put it in his ear, "Hey, hello." ”

"I am Chen Zhong, ...... of the Political and Legal Committee"

When he heard this opening remark, Zhao Dabao's head buzzed, and he knew that he was in trouble.

And when he heard that the secretary of the political and legal committee, who was kind and polite to him in the past, scolded himself in his mobile phone like a killed father and mother at this moment, Zhao Dabao broke out in a cold sweat.

In this winter, Director Zhao Dabao felt like he was roasted on the fire, and the whole person was dumbfounded.

Which of the policemen next to him was not an old fritter, and they could see at a glance that the situation was wrong, so they all temporarily stopped their movements and looked at each other.

"Okay, okay, Secretary Chen, don't worry, I, Zhao Dabao, swear to the Imperial Charter and promise to complete the tasks handed over by the organization!"

Zhao Dabao wiped the cold sweat and hung up the phone, and then carefully returned the phone to the man in the windbreaker, and said flatteringly: "That...... I'm sorry, it's me Zhao Dabao who has no eyes and has neglected you, I'm here to ...... you"

The man in the trench coat took the phone and waved his hand: "Don't talk so much nonsense, I don't bother to bother with you for the New Year, let's go." ”

"Okay, don't worry, we'll leave immediately. ”

Zhao Dabao hurriedly said, he had a majestic national face, but at this moment, he looked like he was bowing his head and flattering, and it was really difficult for him.

The policemen next to him were already stunned, Zhao Dabao is also a powerful figure in Longqi County, with a deep background, and even many big people in the county don't let go of it, but at this time, after answering a phone call, he has become like this, is this still the majestic Director Zhao Dabao Zhao in the past?

"What are you still doing, let's go!"

Zhao Dabao scolded, and was about to leave with a group of policemen.

"Wait. ”

However, at this time, Chen Lan didn't agree, frowned, and said, "You're not here to check the military card?

"Yes, aren't you going to arrest us back in the bureau?

Mu Qing was also quite annoyed in her heart, and said coldly.

"This ......"

Zhao Dabao was suddenly embarrassed, and looked at the man in the windbreaker.

"Let them go, I see that they are also commanded, and they don't understand what all this is all about. ”

The man in the trench coat said patiently, and when facing Chen Lan and Mu Qing, his expression was much more sincere and sincere.

Chen Lan and Mu Qing glanced at each other and said, "It's okay to let them go, I want to know who is behind this." ”

The man in the trench coat smiled heartily and said, "I'll explain to you later." ”

Seeing that things were already like this, Chen Lan also extinguished his thoughts of making trouble with the group of policemen, and nodded: "Thank you very much." ”

Seeing this scene, Zhao Dabao still didn't understand that the identities of this pair of men and women were not as simple as he imagined?

As soon as he thought that he had almost caught two big masters just now, his scalp was full of hair, how dare he linger any longer, and escape with the group of policemen.

When he walked out of the door of the restaurant and looked at the dusty and muddy military vehicle, Zhao Dabao's heart was quite complicated, and he couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Fuck, this big New Year's Day almost made Lao Tzu finish!"

"Zhao Ju, that person ...... just now"

A policeman couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't!"

Zhao Dabao frowned and scolded, then said, "These people are not simple, they are immortals fighting, we mortals can't afford to mix, hurry up and go home for the New Year with peace of mind, if there are any twists and turns in this matter, the ones who carry the black pot are also us errands, alas." ”

He sighed, shook his head, got into the police car, and hurried away with a group of subordinates.

......

"Hello, I'm Wu Chuanliu, a staff member of the Imperial Capital Executive Yuan. ”

In the restaurant, the man in the trench coat took the initiative to smile and speak.

Chen Lan shook hands with the other party and said, "You should already know who we are, so let's make a long story short, what happened just now." ”

Wu Chuanliu said with a smile: "It's just a small misunderstanding, I heard that on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Young Master Zhao Zhicheng accidentally suffered a little injury. ”

"Oh, I see. ”

Chen Lan heard the song and knew the meaning of elegance, and immediately understood that the main messenger behind the scenes of Zhao Dabao and his party was actually the Zhao family!

Mu Qing obviously understood this, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said angrily: "Why are they doing this, it's obvious that it's Liang Liang who beats people, and it's not us!"

Wu Chuanliu smiled, but did not explain.

Chen Lan shrugged his shoulders and said: "It's very simple, their Zhao family doesn't dare to offend Liang Liang, they can only be angry with you and me, but I didn't expect that they would choose to make trouble in Longqi County, or Chinese New Year's Eve the night...... It seems that their Zhao family doesn't plan to let me have a good year. ”

Wu Chuanliu was stunned, and was about to say something, but saw that Chen Lan had already pulled Mu Qing out of the restaurant and drove away.

Wu Chuanliu shook his head and returned to his seat.

On the other side of the table, there was an old man sitting, peeling a salted egg, his movements were unhurried, and he looked very leisurely.

"Old Lin, I seem to have said the wrong thing just now. ”

Wu Chuanliu pondered for a long time before he said in a low voice, "This seems to be provoking the relationship between the Zhao family and the curtain family, if the old people in their respective families know about it, I am afraid that there will be a lot of incidents." ”

The old man known as Lin Lao ate an egg, and then said slowly: "What do you care about, Liang Liang has lent the military vehicle to this pair of young people, and this is enough." ”

Wu Chuanliu thought about it and couldn't help admiring: "I still have to give you advice, otherwise I really wouldn't have thought of this layer." ”

Indeed, in the contradiction that just occurred, those policemen used a "fake military plate" excuse, and at other times, this is really nothing, but it can't be done at this time, this is Liang Liang's exclusive car, and the star medal on the military vehicle is in the military department, the Ministry of National Defense, and the Imperial Garrison Administration have A-level files, how can it be fake?

In this case, whether it is the Zhao family or the shogunate family who come to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, they can all be pushed to this military card, and as for the last one to bear the black pot, it must be the unlucky people in police uniforms just now.

Thinking of this, Wu Chuanliu also let go of his mind.

Lin Lao didn't know what he remembered, and sighed: "Xiao Wu, eat more, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner tonight." ”

Wu Chuanliu was stunned and nodded.

If Chen Lan knew that the reason why Wu Chuanliu came forward to help them resolve the conflict just now was just because he recognized Liang Liang's military vehicle, not because he and Mu Qing's face was on his face, he didn't know how he would feel.

But it's right to think about it, in the entire empire, there are only a handful of people who can know Chen Lan's identity.

......

Longqi County Guest House.

Zhao Zhicheng was well-dressed as usual, but the injuries on his face were not yet healed, and he looked a little bruised, which ruined his handsome face.

At this moment, he looked surprised: "You say, it was the secretary of the political and legal committee of this small county town who stopped this matter?"

A middle-aged man in a suit next to him said: "That's right, I called to ask before, and Chen Zhong, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, received a call from Wu Chuanliu, secretary of the Standing Council of the Imperial Executive Yuan." ”

Chairman of the Standing Council of the Imperial Executive Yuan!

This title is terrifying, he is definitely one of the most powerful giants in the empire, and as his secretary, Wu Chuanliu's identity is not simple.

At this moment, Zhao Zhicheng couldn't help frowning: "Did Mu Qing call through the relationship of the curtain family and invite Wu Chuanliu to come forward?"

That's what matters.

The middle-aged man in the suit hesitated for a moment, but still said: "It doesn't seem to be, I heard that Wu Chuanliu is in Longqi County now." ”

Zhao Zhicheng's pupils shrank suddenly: "What is he doing here?

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhicheng asked, "Do you know why he came?"

The middle-aged man in the suit shook his head, and he also doubted in his heart, before he came to Longqi County, he didn't know this place at all.

The reason why he came here was completely because Zhao Zhicheng was anxious to take revenge on the young man named Chen Lan, and he could only follow him.

In other words, this time he and Zhao Zhicheng came to Longqi County to teach Chen Lan a lesson, but they didn't expect that characters like Wu Chuanliu would actually come to this small county, why is this?

Knock knock, there was a knock on the door, and not long after that, a sturdy man in black walked in, and said: "Son, they have left the county seat, and the destination seems to be Huangliang Village, I inquired, that Chen Lan's hometown is in Huangliang Village." ”

Zhao Zhicheng frowned, thought about it, and said a little irritably: "I wonder, why did Qingqing fall in love with this non-reusable nerd, and follow him to this kind of shabby place for the New Year, it's just ...... It's unbelievable!"

"Childe, what are we going to do next?"

The middle-aged man in a suit asked.

"Don't worry about that Wu Chuanliu for a while, let's go to Huangliang Village with us, I want to see how dilapidated Chen Lan's hometown is, seize an opportunity to have a good exchange with his family. ”

Zhao Zhicheng gritted his teeth and said.

"Childe, do you want to use some ruthless means?"

The middle-aged man in a suit asked.

"No, I just communicated with Chen Lan's parents, as long as they let their son leave Mu Qing obediently, my goal will be achieved. ”

Zhao Zhicheng waved his hand.

"But...... What if they don't?"

The middle-aged man in a suit asked.

"No promise?"

Zhao Zhicheng sneered and laughed, "Throw money, these hillbillies have never seen anything in the world, and what I like most is money, I don't believe that you can't stun them with money!"

There was a thick disdain in his voice.

At that moment, Zhao Zhicheng no longer hesitated, left the guest house with the middle-aged man in the suit and the sturdy man, and took a Land Cruiser off-road and rushed towards Huangliang Village.

......

At the same time, another hotel in Longqi County.

Mu Tianyuan and his wife packed their luggage, walked out of the hotel, got into a black business car, and drove in the same direction.

"I hope that the situation in that kid's family doesn't disappoint me. ”

Lying on the seat, Mu Tianyuan rubbed his temples a little tiredly, it was the first time he had traveled all the way on Chinese New Year's Eve, coming to such a poor country, the hard work along the way was not to mention for the time being, the key was that the mood has been quite heavy.

On the one hand, he was worried about his daughter's unladylikeness, and on the other hand, because of Zhao Zhicheng's beating, the Zhao family has been putting pressure on him these days, making him anxious and making him tired.

"Don't worry, Liang Liang has lent the military vehicle to the young man, it should be fine. ”

Liu Lingzhi said softly on the side.

"Alas, it's not that I hate the poor and love the rich, but the situation of the young man and our daughter is completely different, you say that people living in two worlds, how can they be combined? After getting married, their outlook on consumption, outlook on life, and their views on their future careers will inevitably be contradictory, that is the biggest misfortune in marriage, I don't want Qingqing to regret it when the time comes. ”

Mu Tianyuan sighed, his daughter is his father's heart, he naturally cherishes it in every way, and it is impossible for him to let his daughter go freely in terms of choosing a mate.

"Thinking about what to do so much, when I go to Nahuangliang Village today and take a look at the situation in the young man's home, there will naturally be a result. ”

Liu Lingzhi seemed to be speaking lightly, but in fact, he was quite worried in his heart.

"That's all there is to it. ”

Mu Tianyuan said softly with some weakness.

The car had already left the county seat and was driving along a muddy country road, bumpy along the way, with no visible light outside the window.

This made Mu Tianyuan's heart worse and worse, this is Chinese New Year's Eve, the family should have reunited and happy for the New Year, who would have thought that because of a willful decision of his daughter, he and his wife were so tired that they couldn't survive for years, and they had to suffer all the way on the muddy road in this poor country.

......

It was not only the Mu Tianyuan couple who suffered from the turbulence, not only Zhao Zhicheng's son, but also another group.

This group of people set off very early, and the speed was also very fast, and they even rushed ahead of Chen Lan and Mu Qing, who had set off earlier.

This group of people took a total of nine cars, all black off-road vehicles, if Liang Liang saw these off-road vehicles, he would definitely recognize them at a glance, these cars are even higher than her one in terms of performance, let alone spending money to buy them, even she is difficult to get one.

Wu Chuanliu and Lin Lao sat in the same car.

"Old Lin, which big man are we going to visit this time?"

Wu Chuanliu asked a question that had been holding back in his heart, they had gone all the way, originally thought that it would be a famous place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and who had thought about it...... But it was actually a remote and poor village, coupled with Lin Lao's solemn appearance along the way, which made him more and more curious.

"When you get there, you will understand, remember, you can only watch, don't speak. ”

Lin Lao admonished.

Wu Chuanliu nodded, he was naturally not stupid to have today's status, the more Lin Lao was like this, the more he realized that the significance of this placement was unusual.

That's right, who has ever seen a group of big people in the empire who are at the pinnacle of power in the New Year go out collectively and unanimously come to visit one place?

Just thinking about the taste is terrifying.

Suddenly, Wu Chuanliu seemed to remember something, and immediately shook his head again.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Lao asked.

"It's nothing, but I suddenly remembered that the object Mu Qing was looking for seemed to have grown up in Huangliang Village. ”

Lin Lao was stunned: "What a coincidence." ”

Wu Chuanliu smiled: "It's indeed a coincidence. He didn't see it this time, there was a touch of contemplation in the depths of Lin Lao's old eyes.

......

Chinese New Year's Eve, thousands of lights, firecrackers, for ordinary people, this is the most celebrated and anticipated day of the year.

For Chen Lan, Mu Qing, Zhao Zhicheng, Mu Tianyuan and his wife, and Lin Lao and his party, they all looked a little embarrassed.

There was no way, because of the heavy snow, the road to Huangliang Village seemed too bumpy and muddy.

Zhao Zhicheng's son was already so angry that he cursed and cursed, which roughly means that he will never set foot in this ghost place again in his life......

――

PS: Speaking of the extras, the last article about Chen Lan is missing, and it will be shelved for a period of time after writing, and the goldfish's energy needs to be fully invested in the new book, because the new book will be opened next week, and the goldfish is very nervous and under great pressure.

If I have the opportunity in the future, I will inevitably write "Wu Xuezen", because he is the most difficult to write, and he is also my favorite character, so I can't bear to write in a hurry.
