Reggie's favorite candidate is Simon Manjiao, but in the face of these underworld-like gang organizations, Reggie must be on guard. After the meeting, he asked Dolanol to protect Manjiao secretly.
However, what was never expected was that the person who harmed Manjiao was not another competitor, but her biological father, which put Dolanor in a bit of a dilemma.
"Sir, I have seen many bastard fathers, but this is the first time I have seen such a bastard like him."
Reggie smiled bitterly and said, "That's because you haven't met Natalie's father."
Doranor said: "No matter what, this is their family matter. We should not interfere. Interfering in other people's family affairs will only bring us endless trouble."
"I am a person who is not afraid of trouble!" Reggie said, "It is best to make her and her father fall out, and it is best to make her no longer represent the power of any family, so that she can become a qualified city lord.
"
Doranor rescued Manjiao from the cell, and when he arrived at the examination room, the examination had already begun.
It is about the family's reputation. The other three candidates are all wearing gorgeous clothes. Among them, Kitano Jing's clothes are the most eye-catching. He is wearing a set of cloud cotton robes. The gorgeous embroidery work even exceeds the tribute given to the Golden Eagle.
In the past, if he dared to wear this robe, he would be hanged on the city gate by the Golden Eagle. Looking at his luxurious clothes, even Reggie had the urge to beat him up.
In comparison, Manjiao's clothes were too shabby. Not to mention gorgeous, they were not even neat. There were straws from the cell hanging on her skirt, which made Reggie feel sad when he saw it.
She felt embarrassed.
But Manjiao couldn't care about this. She had already wasted a lot of time. She couldn't wait to rush to the table and opened the test paper. When she saw the test questions, Manjiao smiled.
If the test was about poetry, poetry, or official articles, Manjiao would be pressed to the ground and rubbed a hundred times by Dongfang Cai and Nangong Xuan.
But Reggie took the exam on Suixue Law, which was the only thing Manjiao was good at. She didn't know many words and couldn't even recognize the girl's name.
But she could memorize Suixue's laws by heart because she had seen others being beaten and she knew the consequences of violating Suixue's laws.
Dongfang Cai and Nangong Xuan also guessed the content of the test questions. Unfortunately, the Suixue Law has been refined many times and turned into a complete code. It would take at least five days to read through it. They crammed all night, and finally
I only memorized a little bit of it. There were ten questions in the test paper. Nangong Xuan had the urge to hand in the paper after answering three questions. Dongfang started to make up nonsense after answering two questions.
Seeing that Manjiao had been answering fluently, they could already predict the results of the exam. Nangong Xuan winked at the servant, who quietly left the mansion and ran to the Ximen family's house.
Don't say anything shameless to politicians. This is their nature. As long as they can achieve their goals, they don't care about any means.
Ximen Wu rushed to the city lord's mansion as quickly as possible. In order to show a fair and impartial attitude, Reggie allowed everyone to observe the exam. Unexpectedly, the angry Ximen Wu roared directly in the examination room.
"Shameless little maid, what are you doing in there? Why don't you come down and die!"
Manjiao looked at her father in horror, and Ximen Wu shouted: "Get out of here quickly. If you dare to say another word, I will skin you immediately!"
Before Manjiao could speak, Reggie walked out from behind the screen, walked up to Ximen Wu and said, "Who are you and why are you making such a noise here?"
"Sir, my lord, I am the father of this wretched maid, and I am here to take this wretched maid back." The moment he saw Reggie, Ximen Wu almost collapsed to the ground. No one told him that the lord was here.
"I don't know who you are referring to by the mean servant, but publicly insulting others has violated Suixue's law."
"I, I didn't insult others, that, that's my daughter," Ximen Wu glared at Manjiao, "Why don't you come with me!"
Reggie frowned and said, "You are yelling again. Is this considered a provocation to me?"
"I, I, absolutely do not have the courage, sir. I just want to take away my disobedient daughter."
"I just want you to learn to be quiet, because the examination room needs to be quiet, but you just can't be quiet," Reggie turned to Bachelo and said, "What kind of punishment should you receive for repeatedly rushing against the lord?"
Batchelor said: "According to the Camel Island Chapter of Suixue's law, if you repeatedly collide with the lord, you will be punished with a rod for thirty years."
The Chapter of Camel Island is Batchelor's supplement to the Suixue Law combined with the customs and habits of the Dongsang people. This must be recognized by Batchelor's wisdom. From conviction, sentence to punishment, every detail is filled with Dongsheng.
Characteristics unique to the San people.
For example, beating him with a board on the spot is a popular punishment method among Dongsang people. Reggie shouted: "Drag him out and beat him!" In full view of everyone, he hit the lord. This crime did not require trial. Two law enforcers dragged Ximen Wu away.
Go outside the door, flip it to the ground, and start fighting.
As soon as the board fell down, Ximen Wu cried out for his father and mother in pain. Reggie immediately ordered him to be punished even more severely if he dared to make any noise. Ximen Wu bit his belt with his mouth and did not dare to cry out again.
After the exam, the furious Ximen Wu waited at the door for Manjiao to come out. From morning to dusk, he finally saw a figure. Unfortunately, it was not Manjiao, but Dongfang Cai.
"My nephew, where did my shameless maid go? What happened today was the fault of that maid alone. I hope your Majesty will not blame her."
Dongfangcai shook his head and said: "Sir Ximen Manjiao is now the city lord of Tuodao City. If you offend the city lord, you will be punished twenty times. I am afraid that Uncle Shi is not strong enough, so he must be more cautious in his words and deeds."
"She, she, she really became the city lord?" Ximen Wu's expression was very complicated, and the anger on his face gradually dissipated. After holding it in for a long time, he actually laughed out loud: "This is a blessing that my tribe has cultivated in some life!
Go clean the house quickly and welcome my son Manjiao home!"
Dongfang Cai whispered: "Uncle Shi can't be impatient, I'm afraid the city lord still has some grudges against you."
"It doesn't matter. After all, I am her father. I will wait here until she calms down and then I can apologize to her."
…
The Dongsang people are very stubborn, but they are more adaptable than others. Bachelo cannot understand the temperament of the Dongsang people, but he does not know that Reggie knows this very well.
Reggie handed over Tuodao City to Bachelot and Manjiao. In addition, he appointed Dongfangcai as an auxiliary officer, and also selected a group of officials from three other families. This kind of pure aristocracy was not Reggie's
Wanted, but for now, this is the best choice Reggie can make for Tuodao City.
Yang Qiu led his tribe to leave Tuodao City and resisted the mud demon outside the city with the Hell Wizard. Before leaving, he handed a batch of ancient books to Lei Ji. These ancient books contained the history of the Dongsang people.
It can also be regarded as Yang Qiu's reward for not killing Lei Ji.
Reji stayed in Tuodao City for three days. During the day, he learned about the customs and customs of Tuodao City. At night, he studied the ancient books left by Yang Qiu. The obscure ancient texts gave Reji a headache. Sometimes he had to read a few lines of words and Bache.
Luo argued all night long. Originally, he wanted to stay in Tuodao City for a while, but a messenger sent news about the Bayers.
Prime Minister Romell of the Bayer Kingdom came to Broken Snow City. He brought the delivery documents and prepared to cede Golden Light City to Reggie.
