The road to progress cannot be blocked, the society cannot be rigid, merit will be rewarded, and mistakes will be punished. Only in this way can we show our due vitality.
Perhaps before that, Wang Pu felt inferior to his status of defeat and surrender, but after really understanding the social structure of the Han Dynasty, he will find that when efforts can bring benefits, what about inferiority should be put aside first, and the focus is to establish more credit in exchange for higher status and benefits.
Of course, Wang Pu found that the three people in front were a little out of place at first sight.
Huan Wen, Yuan Qiao and Wang Tan are out of tune, which is a distinction between temperament and clothing.
There are no real aristocrats in the Han Dynasty. Aristocratic temperament needs to be cultivated from childhood. Every move has its flavor, which can not be achieved by deliberate imitation.
Huan Wen, Yuan Qiao and Wang Tan all came from very good backgrounds, especially in the Eastern Jin Dynasty under the rule of the nine grade Zhongzheng system. They have been rich in clothes and food since childhood. The necessary cultivation and culture will certainly be trained, and a noble demeanor will be formed.
The costumes of the Eastern Jin Dynasty tend to be gorgeous. Some are fit, but clothes with a lot of cloth will tend to be gorgeous in color, and some patterns and edges will also appear complex. If you don't pay attention to some, it's obviously a set of gorgeous clothes, but it will be loose. It's normal to expose your chest and belly. It's just that you think it's very free and easy. People will be crazy and show the so-called demeanor of Wei and Jin Dynasties.
Two of the three people Wang Pu saw were Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao, and the other was Wang Tanzhi who showed his chest and jumped off.
The style of clothing in the Han Dynasty is the same as that in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. After all, it is the Miao people of the same civilization. The difference between the two sides is that the Han Dynasty has improved the style of strong Han clothes, and there are clothes used on several occasions, such as wearing orthodox Han clothes on formal occasions and warrior clothes in the Sui and Tang Dynasties on combat occasions. Usually it depends on how individuals like to wear them.
In terms of color, the clothes of the Han Dynasty tend to be solemn (dull). Take the battle clothes as an example. The soldiers' War clothes are fixed in red and black or gray. Some officers above the Marquis are in black or red Samurai clothes. The style of armor is not so complicated because it is the system.
Folk? The folk costumes in the Han Dynasty are almost the same as those in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but it is difficult to see too bright colors.
I don't know who has such a saying. It can see the character of a nation from its love for color. What likes colorful is preferred, and what color is monotonous will appear rigid.
In other words, can a nation's character really be defined by its preference for color? Isn't it human nature to like variety?
When Wang Pu passed Huanwen, his eyes did not hide. His face was behind his visor, but his eyes were always on the three.
To tell you the truth, the Jin people in the central plains are not good at the sense of the Jin people in the south of the Yangtze River. One Jin people in the central plains are all aristocratic families that resent the south of the Yangtze River.
That's because those door lords and aristocratic families abandoned the Jin people in the Central Plains and left them to the Hu people. Only then can they have the next tragic fate.
Huan Wen could feel the exploration in Wang Pu's sight for the first time, with an almost subconscious rejection or disgust in his curiosity?
"What are you looking at?" Wang Tan is young. He not only has a jumping personality, but also can do whatever he wants.
Without a word like "look at you", Wang Pu glanced at Wang Tanzhi and led the team without stopping.
Yuan Qiao looked at Wang Pu's back and said, "not very good!"
Wang Tanzhi didn't understand. He looked angrily at Wang Pu's back: "how can a humble person be like this."
Huan Wen was silent and thought more than the young Wang Tanzhi.
Wang Pu heard what Wang Tan said behind him. He didn't turn his head. If it was just a subconscious rejection before, he now hates Huanwen three people.
A similar phenomenon has not never happened. Most people in the Han Army have obviously excluded the children of aristocratic families south of the Yangtze River, and Huan Wen has long understood why. It was a state of almost no solution. Who let the Jin people in the Central Plains really be abandoned?
Next, the three continued to wander around the city, but Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao were not as excited as before, but Wang Tanzhi seemed very excited.
"They are all well-trained soldiers!" Wang Tanzhi pointed to some soldiers summarized in the auxiliary class: "they are not worse than some of our soldiers (Jin Army). They are only auxiliary soldiers in the Han Dynasty?"
"The Han army was not short of weapons." Huan Wen told the truth: "it was just a battle, with the loss of more than 10000 weapons and more than 100000 arrows."
"I'm not talking about weapons, it's their quality." Wang Tanzhi raised his hand and made a posture of stacking tendon flesh: "each one looks very strong. The most rare thing is that he has high obedience."
It may be because of the problem of geographical division. People in the Central Plains, Beidi, Guanzhong and other regions are generally taller. On the contrary, the average height in the south of the Yangtze River is really slightly shorter, and the more southwest it is, the shorter it is.
In fact, the average height of Chinese and Miao people has not been poor, and there were not so many regional differences. For example, during the Warring States period, the average height was more than 1.7 meters in the Central Plains, Guanzhong and south of the Yangtze River. There can be a large number of people about 1.9 meters in any place.
With the passage of time, only hundreds of years have passed, the number of people over two meters tall in the Central Plains has decreased rapidly, and the average height has also decreased from one meter eight to one meter seven.
We should deeply know that, not counting the policies attached to corvee, the conscription in the Han Dynasty can not join the standing army if the height is less than 1.8 meters. In particular, the height of the northern army is required to reach 1.9 meters, even the southern army is required to be 1.75 meters.
Before always say what husband, how many feet man, talk about is height. One foot in the Han Dynasty is two meters four, and seven feet is one meter six eight. With so many measured words and men grouped together, it can be seen that tall was a common phenomenon at that time.
"It's tall and majestic." Yuan Qiao nodded, but said again, "but people with short stature are not uncommon."
"The Han Army has incorporated Hu people." Huan Wen knew more. He said, "as far as I know, of the nearly 50000 soldiers, the number of hu'ers should be 7000?"
"Those are cavalry." Wang Tanzhi didn't care about anything and said, "in the final analysis, we are really not so good at riding and fighting."
After a burst of gossip, the three returned to their own residence, but found that someone had been waiting.
"I've seen three." LV Shaoyang saluted first, then said in a solemn voice: "you have an order to order Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao to see Cai Changshi."
There are a lot of long histories in the Han Dynasty, which is the sequelae of the civil service system that has not been really established, but there is only one long history surnamed CAI.
"You must be Wang Tanzhi?" LV Shaoyang stopped talking to Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao. Looking up and down at the untidy Wang Tan, he said, "your position has come down. It's time to see captain Li to get the seal ribbon."
"Captain Li?" Wang Tan's mystery asked, "which is it?"
LV Shaoyang said briefly, "Li Kuang, Li Xiaowei."
On the other side, Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao looked at each other for a few seconds, but neither of them spoke, making the atmosphere more dull.
"Yuanzi." Finally, Yuan Qiao took the lead in breaking the silence: "I'm afraid it's not easy to gain a firm foothold in the Han army."
"Yes." Huan Wen said dully, "you may appreciate us, but... There are too many people who reject us."
There is no doubt that Liu Yan appreciates Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao. He has never concealed his appreciation for them. But many times being appreciated is only the first step. Appreciation from rulers is both opportunity and pressure, especially on the premise that most people reject it.
When they came to Cai you's office, they waited for communication before entering.
"Sit down first." Cai you didn't put on any face. He smiled at them and turned his attention to the papers on the table again. He didn't know what to write with a brush. He waited a little while before saying, "you two should have been familiar first. But..."
Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao looked at each other without leaving a trace. They both looked forward to it. They are not afraid of having a task, but they are afraid of doing nothing after they come. You can't fit in until you have something to do. It's bad to be left alone.
"But now the situation does not allow." Cai you stopped writing and asked the assistant officials next to him to send the papers to the right place. When he looked at Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao, he smiled: "our army won the war in Xuzhou and brought back a large number of people..." introduced what should be introduced, and finally said: "so, are you willing to bear it?"
It's not an order, it's asking whether they are willing to take office. It's not a good phenomenon for Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao, which means they have not been accepted into the system.
"Since Wen is willing to work for you, why ask?" Huan Wen's face was serious: "just give orders."
Yuan Qiao also showed a corresponding attitude.
"That would be great." Cai you was still smiling, but his tone was solemn. People also stood up: "Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao obey orders!"
Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao immediately posed to salute.
"Your order!" Cai you took out the necessary order: "Yuan Qiao assisted Huanwen in handling the resettlement.", Then he handed out the order, and then relaxed his tone: "the papers you need will be sent later, and the corresponding staff will be configured."
After talking about what to talk about, Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao saw that people sent letters to Cai you all the time. They should have talked more to enhance their feelings, but they also knew that they should choose another time.
"We're in big trouble." Yuan Qiao looked bitter: "where is it so easy to split the clan?"
"No!" Huan Wen said firmly, "this is a good opportunity."
No one is easy to do. If it is done, it is to show ability. Huan Wen knows too well what capable people can't do, so he will appear valuable. And he desperately needs to show his value and do a great job, so that he can have a place under Liu Yan's command. It is an important position, not dispensable!
