Peerless Pirates

Chapter 404 Jinshi Examination

People say that it takes ten lies to make a lie (read the full text of The Story of Demons and Gods). Song Zheng finally understood the meaning of this sentence. However, he really did not have the courage to tell Ming'er about Princess Xixia.

After Ming'er left, Song Zheng called Erhei and told him softly to find Xu Mingxuan tomorrow, find a way to pick up Li Yuanzhen from Fengzhuyuan, and find another place to hide. Although Xu Mingxuan had an average status in the Xu family, he still wanted to hide himself.

There should still be a way. Of course, Li Yuanzhen has become a friend in Song Zheng's mouth. Erhei handles things safely and leaves it to him, so he can rest assured.

Early the next morning, Song Zheng went to Jiangning Wuyuan. Today was the last day for Wu Jinshi, and Song Zheng did not dare to delay.

Xin Yu, Yang Dong, Zu Jie and others were naturally very happy to see Song Zheng. Lu Hong's injuries were almost completely healed and he was bouncing around. He first asked about the situation of Song Zheng's contest with Han Kui.

"This Han Kui is not simple, he has a unique boxing technique." Song Zheng sighed, "Even if I take action, although I have the upper hand, I can't defeat him during the tea time." Then, Song Zheng briefly explained the situation of the contest with Han Kui.

Once again, the outcome was changed to a tie. Everyone had seen Song Zheng's terrifying skills, and now that Song Zheng couldn't win in a short time, they naturally had a higher opinion of Han Kui.

Song Zheng asked about Xin Qiji's teachings to them. They were just some questions that had been asked in the Wujinshi examination in previous years and how to deal with them. Song Zheng had been exposed to these things when he was in the Licheng military camp, and he was not too relaxed.

In the heart.

After chatting for a while, a hundred martial arts students who entered the final stage gathered in a large courtyard on the west side of the martial arts academy. The courtyard covered an area of ​​more than three acres, and a plaque hung at the door saying "Wugong Yuan"

Three red letters. Hundreds of armed guards had already surrounded the courtyard, with one post every three steps and one sentry every five steps (read the full text of Pian Qingli Renxing).

None of the martial artists dared to joke. After entering the courtyard, they stood in a square formation of ten people. Han Kui, Dong Mingyan and Mu Boyue didn't say much. They just nodded slightly towards Song Zheng, with some kindness in their eyes.

On the north side of the courtyard, there is a house, which is six or seven feet taller than an ordinary house. To be precise, this is a main hall, with a mansion in front. On both sides of the hall door, there are eight pillars with chi patterns on them. The hall

Above the door, there are three big characters "Wu Yuan Hall". At this time, the door of the hall is closed tightly, and a huge copper lock is hung on it.

There were many martial arts examinations, but only a few were taking the martial arts examination for the second or third time and were no strangers to this place. Most people came here for the first time, and they all curiously looked at the layout.

On the west side of the yard is a wing room with the door open, and several tables can be vaguely seen inside. On the south side of the yard, there is a shed against the wall, which contains a row of weapon racks, as well as stone locks, bows and arrows, targets and other items.

While the martial arts officials were secretly sizing up the situation, the general who had been hosting the martial arts competition came to the crowd and coughed lightly. The martial arts officials hurriedly accommodated Shu Li.

"Today is the last test. Your Majesty attaches great importance to it and personally selected five generals of the armed guards to serve as examiners. I hope you will accept the instructor's instructions carefully. You must respect and do not make any noise. When there is an examiner competing with you, you must use your best ability.

, If you really are no match, you can make it clear."

Then, General Pi talked about some simple rules and methods of participating in the inspection.

Just as General Pi finished speaking, a sergeant ran over from outside, stood two feet away from General Pi, and knelt on one knee. "Inform the general, the prince will come in person to participate in the first batch of assessments. The commander ordered that all the military officers be prepared to welcome him."

Prepare!"

Pang Hui was coming, which surprised everyone, and General Pi was also shocked. In previous years, Pang Hui would only appear in the last competition to compete for the martial arts champion order, but now he came early, which was beyond everyone's expectations. General Pi hurriedly took over.

Order and start teaching the etiquette of welcoming everyone.

Pang Hui held many official positions, including Taiwei, Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial City, Governor of Tokyo Pass, etc., and his title was King Zheng. Later, the word "Wude" was added to the title, and he became King Zheng of Wude (Wude Zheng).

Tai Chi master city

(Read the full text). This is also the only prince in Da Qi who has a title in front of him. Because of Pang Hui's high position, officials at all levels refer to him by the word "Prince" and never address the title in front of him.

The royal family of Daqi is not prosperous, and there are two princes, two brothers of Taizong, King Lu and King Dian, both of whom are in their dying years. Therefore, the word prince generally only refers to Pang Hui. Therefore, it is called "Pang Hui".

The word "side by side king" is not an exaggeration. This title is only found in Peking Opera, and it is very suitable for Pang Hui.

The number of kings in Da Qi is limited to one generation. Below the prince, there are the princes, county princes and county princes. They are all brothers and descendants of Taizu or the descendants of the two princes above. As for Pang Zhen and Pang Xun, they are just Taizu.

Strictly speaking, the people of the same clan back then were not considered a royal family. Otherwise, they would not have been reduced to Duan Ren.

He became a guard. From Taizong's branch, only the current emperor Mingzong Pang Ying was passed down. Even Pang Hui had no son. Speaking of which, the bloodline of the Daqi Dynasty was quite dangerous. If something happened to Pang Ying, it would be

The roots are broken. The Great Qi Dynasty will either fall into pieces or choose someone from the side lineage to be the emperor.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Pang Hui himself does not have a yellow robe. With Pang Hui in charge of the military, it is not particularly difficult to launch a coup. However, Pang Hui has no son, so he cannot take advantage of his distant relatives.

Pang is a descendant.

It is precisely because of this dangerous situation that Huang Yuandu also wanted to ask for some military power while taking charge of the government. The establishment of the Duwei Army was based on this situation.

Song Zheng thought about these situations and couldn't help but lament the difficulty of revenge.

As soon as Chen Shi arrived, the sound of neat footsteps came from outside the courtyard. Immediately afterwards, a group of strong sergeants in iron armor appeared in front of the servants. Among the sergeants was a tall horse, more than eight feet long and six feet high.

The whole body is brownish-red, except for the four hooves as big as bowls, which are white in color. At first glance, it looks like an unusual and famous horse.

Immediately, a man sat upright, with a thin face, high cheekbones, and a somewhat pale complexion. However, his sharp eyes were piercing, as if they could penetrate people's hearts. He was wearing bright silver armor, and his red cloak was flying in the wind, making him

The whole person looks more and more extraordinary (read the full text of Da Modu).

It’s Pang Hui!

Behind him was an old man with white eyebrows, a round face, thin lips, and a kind air that seemed to have a hint of sinisterness. With this appearance, Song Zheng could guess that he was Qiu Shen, the Minister of War.

After Qiu Shen, there were Lan Shiguang, the commander of the city guard, Jiang Weiji, the commander of the left army, He Kuan, the military supervisor, and others, all lined up. However, Dong Lancheng, the right minister of the Ministry of War, did not appear in the queue. I think it was because Dong Mingyan participated in the final round.

Avoid taboos due to martial arts competition.

"See you, Your Majesty!" Under the leadership of General Pi, all the warriors knelt down on one knee and cupped their hands.

"stand up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone moved in unison, with great momentum.

Pang Hui nodded. An armored sergeant immediately lowered his head and knelt under the horse and started to stir up the horse. Another sergeant stepped forward and helped Pang Hui off the horse. Lan Shiguang and others also dismounted one after another.

Pang Huilong walked like a tiger, stood forward and stood at the front of the martial arts team. A pair of sharp eyes glanced around, and the martial arts he saw lowered their eyelids. Song Zheng held his chest and head high, still maintaining the original movements. Neither

He looked at Pang Hui and did not nod. This was not because he wanted to show off, but because he did not have this habit.

Seeing Song Zheng in the queue, Pang Hui narrowed his eyes and jumped slightly, then glanced at him as if nothing had happened.

"Yes, there are some good materials for this martial arts competition." Pang Hui smiled, which was very different from the feminine look when Song Zheng first met him.

Pang Hui's voice was soft and friendly, "You guys accept the inspection well, I'm waiting to see you compete for the No. 1 Military Order!"

The last sentence ignited the fighting spirit of everyone in the martial arts competition, and everyone became excited. Taking fifty people out of one hundred people seems to be a high ratio, but these one hundred people also started as martial arts students and walked step by step to where they are today.

No one is willing to give up and everyone is fully prepared (excellent).

"I won't talk nonsense anymore, gentlemen, show your skills!" Pang Hui raised his voice a little, then turned and walked towards the big house on the south side. Lan Shiguang and others followed closely behind.

Yes, there are five generals wearing gold-threaded gray armor, who are today's inspecting generals. One of them, Song Zheng, knows him, and he is Feng Zhanbao, the general who once presided over the competition at the C-shaped training ground.

Since the last level does not involve competing with each other, the order of the martial arts examinations has already been arranged and distributed to the leading generals of each martial arts competition. From this, Song Zheng already knew his order, and it was right.

Ranked third.

Pi will take out the list from his arms and read the names on it aloud. The first twenty will stay and wait for the morning inspection, while the rest of the martial arts will disperse. Twenty will be inspected every morning, twenty will be inspected in the afternoon, and one hundred will be inspected in the morning.

The famous martial arts examination lasted for two and a half days.

Among the Shandong Road Martial Arts Examinations, only Song Zheng and Song Tianyou participated in the morning inspection. Song Tianyou ranked 19th. This Martial Arts Examiner with the same surname as Song Zheng is also famous. Song Tianyou is from Qizhou, Shandong

He is twenty-six or seven years old, has a white face, broad ears, and a slender figure. Every move he makes is very upright, and he looks like a general.

Another acquaintance is Tian Jinchang, ranked second. After being easily defeated by Song Zheng with his bare hands, Tian Jinchang realized the gap between himself. There are people outside the world, and there is a world outside the world. Tian Jinchang's original pride immediately restrained.

For three days, Tian Jinchang devoted himself to re-reading military books and constantly discussing with Gu Zhengjie. Gu Zhengjie's father was a famous general, and he passed on some battle experience to Gu Zhengjie. Gu Zhengjie did not hide his secrets and told Tian Jinchang these things carefully.

Since the armored troops were standing around the team, no one dared to say anything. When Yang Dong, Lu Hong and others left, they all sent encouragement to Song Zheng with their eyes.

In the blink of an eye, only Song Zheng and twenty other people were left in the courtyard, which immediately seemed much emptyer.

"Zhu Yishan from Gyeonggi Road is entering, and Xue Shengyong from Henan Road is ready. The rest of the people will wait and go to the west side room to rest." Following General Bi's order, a young man with thin eyebrows stood up, raised his hand to General Pi, and entered the hall.
