Zongwu: I became Xuzhu
Chapter 99
The martial arts competition held by Zhu Ming basically came to an end.
The sixteen finalists finally came to the palace on this day. In addition to Xu Zhu and Li Xunhuan who came through the back door, there were two sons of meritorious families.
There were a total of twenty people.
When Xu Zhu came to the palace, he was naturally familiar with the way. On the high platform, the old emperor sat in the main seat, and on both sides of the main seat were Jiang Yuyan and Lin Xianer. This kind of thing should have been done by the queen or the imperial concubine, after all, it was a formal occasion.
But these two women were the best in the harem, so they didn't care about these.
Behind them stood Cao Zhengchun and Liu Xi, and as for Yu Huatian from the inner palace factory, he went to work in other places.
But they didn't fall behind in the work of recruiting talents.
Under the high platform, the two emperors, Yun Wang and Zhu Wushi, were on both sides. The only pity was that Guo Bujing from the Six Gates didn't come, otherwise it would be lively.
Although Xu Zhu was a contestant, he was also a third-rank immortal seeker. Although he had no real power, the old emperor trusted him very much during this period of time and arranged a seat for him. He could eat when the contest was over.
As for Li Xunhuan, he was not treated so well.
Fang Jun looked at Prince Yun and felt a little sorry that Jiang Nanyue did not come. Otherwise, he really wanted to see Jiang Nanyue's expression when her identity was revealed.
However, the old emperor did not like that his sister-in-law was a singing girl. It was normal that she was not there for all the activities, but this woman escaped.
Prince Yun looked at Xu Zhu looking at him and thought that Xu Zhu was giving him a secret signal. He also smiled and nodded. Xu Zhu had eliminated a lot of people for him in the past few days. These people were either dead or injured. It was the time of spring breeze.
The only pity was that Xu Zhu and Li Xunhuan could not meet today. They would meet the day after tomorrow.
So let Li Xunhuan live two more days. Waiting for Li Xunhuan to die, the whole Ming Dynasty will be more respectful of the Yunwang Mansion. Those who obey me will prosper and those who disobey me will perish.
Thinking of this, the Yunwang smiled even more proudly.
Seeing the Yunwang and Xu Zhu flirting with each other, Zhu Wushi on the side was naturally very unhappy. In fact, it was not only him who was unhappy, but Liu Xi and Cao Zhengchun were also unwilling.
During this period, the whole capital knew that Xu Zhu had surrendered to the Yunwang, just because of the distant cousin of the Yunwang Consort.
Although a lot of intelligence showed that this Jiang Mingyue was the Yunwang Consort Jiang Nanyue. I was very angry about the Yunwang's behavior of selling his wife. But there was nothing I could do.
A hero is hard to resist the beauty. This Xu Zhu is really a romantic ruffian.
"Royal brother, everyone is here. Can we start the competition?" At this time, the Yunwang took the lead and said proudly.
"Okay, let's start." The old emperor said at this moment. He had no interest in the competition. He had grown up so fast during this period that he looked ten years younger. He was very energetic when ploughing the fields at night.
His two beauties were also radiant. He thought it was his own achievement, but it was all Xu Zhu's.
"The first group, Wei Zhongxian vs. Taishan Shi Chong."
As the announcement was made, Liu Xi behind the emperor flashed a hint of pride. Wei Zhongxian was a eunuch.
After winning the first prize in the competition, the three factories offered him olive branches. But the young eunuch did not agree easily.
Instead, he waited for the price. In the end, he won four games in a row. When he was on the list of sixteen people, Liu Xi still used a position of a hundred households to recruit Wei Zhongxian.
This made Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian hate him. After all, there are only a few talents that can be recruited in the annual competition, not to mention those who are eunuchs.
As a human being, people always sympathize with each other, especially after checking Wei Zhongxian's background, which is very clean. I wish I could investigate everything he does every day before entering the palace.
How can such a person not be worth fighting for? If he is cultivated in the future, he will be the most capable deputy.
Liu Xi felt that being recruited by their West Factory this time was a hint and favor from God to him, allowing him to annex the other two factories and sit on the seat of the master of the palace.
At this moment, as the announcement ended, Wei Zhongxian and the disciples of the Taishan School had already started fighting.
Wei Zhongxian used the boxing that the eunuchs of the palace had always used, while the disciples of the Taishan School used their own martial arts.
In fact, it was necessary for Wei Zhongxian to win, because the Taishan School owed Xu Zhu a favor in Wan'an Temple before.
This time, the people of the Taishan School naturally agreed. But Xu Zhu still gave compensation.
So this fight became a play, but the play was meant to be realistic, and in the end Wei Zhongxian also won a tragic victory.
After all, acting should be realistic, and you can't learn from those young handsome guys on Blue Star.
Besides, if it's not realistic, how can Liu Xi trust it.
With Wei Zhongxian's tragic victory, Liu Xi was both happy andWorry, I am happy that I won, but I am worried that Wei Zhongxian was injured, and it will be difficult to advance to the next round.
But fortunately, he didn't die. He won, although it was a miserable victory, but it was still within the controllable range.
After the first round, the second round was Xu Zhu's.
The opponent arranged here was also specially arranged by Yunwang, so that he could use the name of the competition to eliminate dissidents for him.
Xu Zhu, well, only used three moves. He killed the man directly.
"Sorry, Your Majesty, I didn't stop." Xu Zhu turned his head and looked at Fang Jun innocently.
"Hey, contestant Xu Zhu is joking. This competition is originally a sword without eyes. This person's skills are not as good as others, and he has signed a life and death agreement." Prince Yun jumped out at this time.
"Royal brother, let's continue the next competition." Prince Yun finished excusing Xu Zhu, and then continued.
The old emperor now feels very good about Xu Zhu, mainly because Xu Zhu made him return to his youth.
A martial artist of medium or small size is nothing to him.
"King Yun is right. This martial arts competition is a battle of swords and swords. Give this man a proper burial and give his family some gold and silver." said the emperor.
Hearing the emperor say this, King Yun's eyes lit up. Then, killing Li Xunhuan later would be normal.
After all, the king's words are golden.
"Yes, I will send someone to do it later." King Yun bowed his hands.
"Your Majesty, this Immortal Seeker is so brave. Why don't you reward him a little? After all, he is your loyal minister." At this time, Lin Xian'er said delicately.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuyan looked at this slutty fox with displeasure. She should have said this herself. After all, she had to love her own master.
But no one knew the relationship between her and her master at the moment. In order not to expose her identity, she had to do this.
"Yes, if you can win this time, I will make you the Imperial Master of the Ming Dynasty." The emperor said at this time. He had wanted to give this position to Xu Zhu for a long time.
It was just that he was previously opposed by the court. Now it is basically a matter of going with the flow. It can also please the beauty, so why not do it.
Of course, the main reason is that Xu Zhu is really useful, especially the so-called longevity technique, which makes his body at least five years younger.
