Please ask me to be the emperor

However, things are unpredictable, but I never thought that in this martial arts competition, only Wang Laipin and Xu Yanqi could wield a sword weighing more than 100 kilograms. Just because of fraud, Xu Yanqi failed to pass the exam, and for a while the public was furious and the uproar was aroused.

When Chongzhen heard about this, he was furious and put the examiners, supervisors, censors, and others in prison. He also dismissed 22 officials from the Ministry of War, and appointed Hanlin Ministers Fang Fengnian, Ni Yuanlu, and others to preside over the re-examination. It was pity that Chen Changzhen was out of anger. Although he could wield a sword weighing more than 100 kilograms, not only did he not have the chance to run again, but he ended up in a lawsuit and was wanted by the government.

What made him even more aggrieved was that Emperor Chongzhen took the opportunity to hold the martial arts examination and selected the top, second and third overall candidates according to the examples given in the text. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen drove to the Jinluan Hall, and hundreds of officials gathered to listen to the officials of Honglu Temple singing the names of Wu Zhuangyuan and Wu Jinshi. On the third day of the Golden Palace's announcement, a special banquet of grace and honor was given.

At that time, Wang Laipin was hand-picked by the emperor to be the first martial arts champion in the first class, given a sword, and was given the second-rank rank of deputy general military officer of Shandong. He was also allowed to return to his hometown in fine clothes and be praised in the streets for three days. This was an honor that no number one civil or military scholar had ever received since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

The more others gain, the more he feels he has lost. Chen Changzhen lamented: "Feng Tang Yi Lao, Li Guang is difficult to seal; Changzhen was innocent and met a corrupt official, but he was lucky enough to meet a wise king!" Zhang Shun knew what he meant when he heard it, This is a polite refusal.

At this time, Taoist Master Ma and other left-behind personnel had also entered the city, and they were also having a banquet. After hearing this, he laughed and said, "Brother Chen, this is wrong!"

"When a Ming ruler is in power, he will defend his bandits from outside and care for his people from within. From now on, the east of Jin and Liao dynasties will be raging, and hungry people and bandits will appear in the northwest. How can we call him Ming? When he is in power, natural disasters will continue, and man-made disasters will help them. The people will not be able to live, and they will overturn the ancient Jie and Zhou. Others are nothing more than this."

"Today, my lord, I have accepted the destiny of heaven. He was born with the appearance of an emperor, walked with the virtue of conquering water, listened to the words of prophecies, and went up to answer the purple star. In fact, he was the man of destiny and the founder of the country. .”

After hearing this, Chen Changzhen glanced sideways at Taoist Ma, thinking: Are you trying to trick me? Whose protagonist has so many "destinies"? Even if you are editing, you have to make it more realistic, right? What's more, you are just a group of thieves, why should you call yourself Chengtian and obey your orders?

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Chen Jindou quickly told him several prophecies to prove that Zhang Shun was the destined emperor; Zhao Yutou told him about the five virtues that had always been said to avoid the Yellow River flood; although Chen Weizhi was somewhat reluctant, He also reluctantly told him about the Ziwei celestial phenomena and the emperor's spirit, and explained to him the principle of Zhang Shun responding to the will of heaven and the people's will.

The "four blows of destiny" joined forces for the first time, and they only deceived Chen Changzhen into confusion and doubt. For a while, he didn't know which one was true and which one was false. He couldn't help but feel shaken in his heart, thinking: Now I am also a litigious person. I have no way out in this life. It's a pity that I have good martial arts. If this person really has destiny, he should be like Uncle Liu Huang, with stars in the sky coming down to earth to help him. Let me give him a try. If Uncle Liu Huang is in front of him, but I act like Guan Gong, isn't it better than being a martial arts champion?

Chen Changzhen had made up his mind and said with the help of wine: "I already know your Majesty's thoughts. If you want to recruit me, you only need to convince me orally. If you can do this, I will be able to conquer the wind and fire. I’ll sell my life to you, so what can I do?”

"Oh? I wonder how I can convince you?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but said with great joy when he saw that he was relieved.

"It's so simple. I am a martial artist. I only know how to dance with spears and sticks, and I am good at all eighteen martial arts. It was just because I had a bad temper last year that I lost my hope of taking the martial arts examination. Otherwise, Wang Laipin may not be able to come out on top."

"I have three abilities that are most outstanding. One is my superb riding skills and my superb spear skills. I can gallop on a horse and pick up copper coins with my spear without falling to the ground. The second is my superb archery skills. I can shoot nine out of nine times at once, and the phoenix seizes the nest. The third is my strength. The infinite, hundred-jin sword spins around like flying, and no one can stop it. If anyone can beat me in one of these three, I will willingly accept you as the master."

"Okay, a gentleman's word?"

"It's hard to chase a horse!" Both parties clapped their hands and vowed.

"I will give another hundred taels of silver as a bet and give it to the winner." Zhang Shun added some luck to himself, but he was determined to make a good friend of Chen Changzhi. If he loses, he can still form a good relationship.

The two parties have decided on a plan. After eating and drinking, they will go to the school to compete in arts. Taoist Master Ma secretly pulled Zhang Shun and said: "These three are not capable of being defeated by a fierce general. Who can defeat them?"

"I have my own opinion, please wait and see." Zhang Shun said confidently, "Three hundred brothers, in the first game of this game, I am going to trouble your sister. Please go and invite her."

"Ah?" Zhang Sanbai's Taoist Zhang Shun asked himself or Wukong to compete in the third event. How did it end up involving his sister?

It turns out that in this era, women's status was lower, and it was inconvenient for men to expose their breasts and behave indecently after drinking some wine. Women were not allowed to participate in banquets most of the time, so Ma Yingniang did not come.

"My sister is very good at riding. With a little practice, there should be no problem with the first item." Zhang Shun explained.

"But she is a woman and has never practiced martial arts. Can she do it?"

"Why not? In ancient times there was Hua Mulan, and now there is Qin Liangyu. They are both heroes among women, so why not be inferior to men?"

"Okay, if we lose, I hope my lord won't blame me." The two parties agreed, and Zhang Sanbai went to invite Ma Yingniang.

A moment after arriving at the school grounds, Ma Yingniang came over with her black horse, and Zhang gave the order to start.

Chen Changzheng was proud of his martial arts skills and did not ask who his opponent was. He mounted his own horse, picked up the two-foot long spear borrowed from Zhang Shun, and asked someone to put copper coins on it.

Zhang Shun personally took a piece of Chongzhen Tongbao and placed it flat on the head of the spear. So, Chen Changzheng nodded in greeting, and when Zhang Shun retreated, he pinched the horse's belly, causing the horse to pace forward.

There are four types of horse steps, from slow to fast: canter, trot, canter, and canter. Chen Changzhen did this one after another until the horse started galloping. After a while, he slowly lowered his speed, running fast, jogging, fast walking, and slow walking in order, until he stopped in front of Zhang Shun.

Zhang Shunzhi looked at the tip of the gun and saw that the copper coin was still on the tip of the gun. So, Zhang took the copper coin and raised it above his head. Everyone was amazed and worshiped: "Brother Changzhi, you are so good at martial arts! You are indeed a hero."

So Zhang Shun asked Ma Yingniang if he could do it. Ma Yingniang looked at him shyly, lowered her head and said like a mosquito: "There is nothing extraordinary about this man's riding skills, only the way he holds a gun is really good. I don't have the strength." He is old and doesn't know much about martial arts, so he can't do it so perfectly. However, there is a clever way to find a nine-foot spear. If the barrel of the spear is hard, I can win."

When Zhang Shun heard this, he knew there was a way.

Thank you all for your strong support, and the author expresses his heartfelt gratitude!
