The pomp and circumstance of the first round of imperial examinations soon spread throughout the capital.

As a result, after seeing the grand scene of the previous exam, many people also became interested in the second one.

Not to mention that the next one is a martial arts, which will be asked by Ye Ruiqin. Compared with the essay written by Yang, the martial arts with various stunts have always attracted more attention.

And Yang Chun is also among the curious.

After a brief discussion with Tang Yunzhao, the two changed into simple clothes on the day of the martial arts and sneaked out of the palace to see what was going on.

Of course, I didn't forget to bring the baby girl Xiao Liuli.

On that day, there was a sea of people.

In a specific area, dozens of guards in gold armor stood majestically around the area. In the middle of the venue, several zhang high platform stands, the four corners are erected with bright red flags, and the strong word "Wu" is written on the flag with gold paint, which makes people look at it and feel awe.

On the side of the high platform, dozens of martial artists were dressed in strong suits, most of them with cold faces and calm breaths.

The stadium was tense and solemn, but the stadium was lively and boiling.

In the crowd, the people watched curiously and pointed at the same time.

"What's the matter, I've heard that there are hundreds of people coming to take the exam, why are there only dozens of people?" someone muttered.

"Stupid, naturally compete in groups, how can so many people gather at the same time. ”

The other chuckled.

At the back of the crowd, a woman in white was holding a little girl in her arms, looking forward curiously. I saw that the little girl in her arms looked very cute and jade, like ice carved jade, and the woman was also cloud-sideburned, her eyes were like paint, and her complexion was extremely beautiful, if she was in the crowd, she would definitely attract attention.

And beside her, there was also a slender man, also dressed in white, with a handsome and cold face, but at this time, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked a little warm, which was very different from his usual majesty.

Naturally, they are Yang Chun and Tang Yunzhao, who came here in casual clothes.

When Yang Chun heard what he said, he couldn't help but glance at him, lowered his head and concentrated on teasing the little glass in his arms. The two occupy a high position, and the view is very good, but they are not afraid of not seeing the competition on the stage.

"Mother, sugar... Sugar gourd. ”

Xiao Liuli blinked her big watery eyes, and suddenly fluttered in Yang Chun's arms.

"Sugar gourd?"

Yang Chun was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, presumably the little girl saw that there was a sugar gourd seller, and she began to be greedy at this time.

I looked around, but I didn't find a figure selling sugar.

She couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Mother, on the stage... Sugar, I want to eat it, I want to eat it. ”

Seeing that Yang Chun didn't seem to understand what it meant, Xiao Liuli fluttered a few more times in his arms, but his tender white little hand pointed to the top of the high platform.

Tang Yunzhao and Yang Chun's eyes were both attracted.

I saw that on the high platform, several people had been separated from the line, and they were about to compete, and they were preparing for pranayama at this time.

However, a bearded man in the corner, who seemed to be pranayama on the surface, behind his back, pretended to stretch his muscles and bones under the cover of the people around him, and quickly stuffed a pill into his mouth.

"This is...?" Yang Chun's face suddenly changed.

"This person wants to cheat. ”

Beside him, Tang Yunzhao's deep voice came. The soft color between his eyebrows has been retracted at this time, his thick eyebrows are frowned, his thin lips are slightly pursed, and his dark eyes reveal a trace of coldness and sorrow.

In the imperial examination of the current dynasty, there are still people who dare to cheat by means, which is undoubtedly not to take the laws of the Great Cloud Kingdom in their eyes and not to take the dignity of him as an emperor in their eyes.

Speaking of which, this person's movements are quite cautious, almost imperceptible. If it weren't for Xiao Liuli mistaking his medicine for sugar and making a fuss about eating it, the two might have neglected his small actions.

But now that it has been discovered, it is natural that we cannot sit idly by.

"Yerechin must be told about this. Yang Chun frowned and said, just about to move, but his hand was grabbed.

"No, he's already found out. Tang Yunzhao's eyes looked at Ye Ruiqin's expression on the stage sharply, and a cold smile bloomed on his lips.

I saw that Ye Ruiqin's eyes were staring at the bearded man in the audience, and his face was gloomy.

Sure enough, he noticed it.

Seeing that the competition is about to begin, several martial artists are ready to go. However, only a majestic cold drink sounded, and the bell-ringer's actions were forcibly restrained.

"Stop it!"

The sound is not loud, but it is extremely intimidating and loud.

There was silence all around.

The wind sounded, and a figure suddenly leaped onto the high platform, his robe flew up, and his expression was cold.

It was Yerechin.

"Your Excellency?" the bell-ringer was stunned by this time.

Ye Ruiqin ignored him, walked towards the martial artists with a gloomy face, and stopped in front of the beard.

"What did you just eat?"

He asked condescendingly.

The bearded man's face suddenly turned pale, and there was a look of fear in his eyes.

After a few moments, he stammered in response, "Tell your lordship... The villain didn't eat anything. ”

"No?" Ye Ruiqin laughed instead of being angry, "Do you want to let the official personally search you before you confess?"

The bearded man was suddenly frightened, and said incoherently: "Adult, the villain knows his mistake...... No, the villain doesn't. ”

However, under Ye Ruiqin's order, several guards had already stepped forward to hold him down, and after a search, they found a bottle of pill hidden in his clothes.

It has been identified by the physician that this drug has the effect of stimulating people's potential and making people excited.

This person is really cheating.

Ye Ruiqin acted resolutely, and abolished this person's qualification on the spot, and the beard was quickly escorted down.

After these twists and turns, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and their eyes looking at Ye Ruiqin couldn't help but be more awe-inspiring.

Now, even if some people have thought about making a bad idea, they don't dare to do it now.

After the farce, the competition took place as scheduled.

At the back of the crowd, Tang Yunzhao, who had everything in his eyes, bowed slightly.

Yang Chun noticed his movements and couldn't help but chuckle: "This Ye Ruiqin can be regarded as very competent. ”

The next second, she was suddenly stunned.

Under the high stage, Yang Chuan, who was supervising the game with Ye Ruiqin, was staring at them at this time.

I didn't expect Yang Chuan to be so sharp-eyed and actually found the two of them in the crowd.

However, it may also be because Yang Chun and the others are extremely outstanding, and they are quite conspicuous in the crowd.

Soon, a guard made his way through the crowd and respectfully approached the two of them, inviting them to go.

Yang Chun and Tang Yunzhao looked at each other and smiled helplessly, but the two did not refuse, and really followed the guards.

"I didn't expect Your Majesty, the queen mother came here, and the minister couldn't welcome her. ”

After arriving at the place, Yang Chuan gave a deep salute to the two of them, and the number of courtesies was not bad at all.

The two hurriedly asked him to get up.

The martial arts competition was fierce, and after a few hours, the results were finally out.

After Yang Chuan's report, a total of 400 people were screened in the second round of the competition.

Hearing this number, Yang Chun was not surprised. Four hundred, which was about the same as she expected.

"So, what's the third game?"

Curious, she asked, smiling.

Tang Yunzhao glanced at her and smiled meaningfully.

"The third one, it's up to you. ”
