The next day, as soon as the morning dawned, the Zhao family's dowry had already gone down to the Lan family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It was fast enough to see that they were ready.
This matter also spread in the capital, and the youngest daughter of the Lan family is also getting married!
But at the same time, there is another good thing going on!
"According to the Holy Command, today the frontier will return to the reserve army for the Imperial Forest Army examination, and those who pass can directly become the Imperial Forest Army..."
It's just that...
Although Xu Wei was kneeling on the ground at the moment to listen to the order, his face was blue and white, and the reserve army was conducting the examination of the Royal Forest Army? Passed directly to become the Imperial Guard? What's going on? How could it be so sudden?
Xu Wei was naturally not a fool, he had already guessed something after thinking about it, and when he turned his head to look at Lan Shan, who was also kneeling on the side, his face suddenly became even more ugly.
"Alright, I'm done, let's all get up!" The great eunuch said sharply.
"Yes!" Lan Xue and the three of them stood up, and saw the big eunuch walking up to Lan Xue's side, and said with a smile: "Commander Lan, the Holy Lord also asked the slave to tell you, this exam will be personally supervised by you, and the Holy Lord believes that you will definitely act impartially!" ā
"Yes, Weichen will act impartially and will not live up to the expectations of the saints!" After speaking, Lan Xue saluted again.
The big eunuch smiled and nodded, then glanced at Han Shengshu and Xu Wei, just nodded at Han Shengshu, didn't pay attention to Xu Wei at all, and turned around and left.
When they left, Xu Wei jumped out and shouted at Lan Xue: "Commander Lan, what's going on with this matter?" ā
Lan Xue didn't bother to pay attention to him, just said lightly, "What else can it be?" Didn't the Holy One say it all? You don't understand that the reserve army that has returned from the frontier should be asked to take the Imperial Forest Army exam? ā
Of course I understand! I mean, how could the Holy One be sudden..."
"Commander Xu! Who can guess the mind of the saint? Why did the Holy One suddenly do this, there is naturally a holy reason, what do you say to me? Can you talk to me again? Okay, don't talk to Commander Xu, I still have to go outside the city to lead those soldiers for the exam! With that, Lan Xue turned around and left.
Leaving Xu Wei standing there alone, his face was gloomy, gritting his teeth, but Han Shengshu also smiled and turned away, which is also a good thing for him to say, and he doesn't like this Xu Wei, seeing him like this, Han Shengshu is also very comfortable in his heart.
It's just that he also knows one thing in his heart, that is, Lan Xue must have found the saint, but he doesn't know, this makes him feel a little sad in his heart, it seems that Lan Xue is still sorry for himself after all...
Leaving the martial arts field, Lan Xue was really in a good mood, and went straight to the north gate.
Came to the outside of the city, appeared in the camp where the reserve army was, and before she could shout, she saw a figure running quickly towards this side, and she didn't have to guess to know that it was a stinky monkey.
"General!" Sure enough, the stinky monkey's voice sounded excitedly, and before the people arrived, the shouting had already woken up many old reserve soldiers who were still sleeping.
"You kid, what are you shouting, by the way, why don't I see anyone? When has this been? I won't still be sleeping! You can't be lazy here! ā
The stinky monkey smiled, and then said proudly: "General, what are you talking about!" What do we say, yours too! How can you be lazy? Our soldiers were all taken by the big man to the distant forest to train to climb trees and crawl, didn't I stay to guard my home! ā
"the fart! I think you kid is trying to be lazy! Lan Xue scolded with a smile.
"Don't dare! General, I don't dare! The stinky monkey hurriedly waved his hand.
Lan Xue smiled and said, "By the way, who else is here besides you?" ā
"In addition to me, there is also Sun Peng's kid."
"Okay, you go and call the big men back, I have something to tell you!"
"Something? Could it be..."
"Let's go!"
"Yes!" The stinky monkey roared excitedly, turned around and ran towards the forest in the distance, which was really not ordinarily fast.
Walking inside, I saw a lot of people poking their heads out of their tents to look at her, she nodded at them, but sighed secretly in her heart, these people may have had their own dreams and pursuits, maybe they also dreamed of becoming the Royal Forest Army, but now, time is the best grinding stone, polishing the edges and corners of these people little by little, so that now they are very satisfied with the status quo and no longer want to forge ahead.
"General!" was thinking about it, but Sun Peng had already appeared in front of her.
Looking at Sun Peng, Lan Xue couldn't help but be in a trance, is this still the stinky boy she met for the first time at that time? At that time, he was simply a sick man, but now that he looks at it, he is already a boy with a strong physique and a good spirit! It's exactly two people!
"How? What a change here! Lan Xue said with a smile.
Sun Peng scratched his head and said, "Yes! And that's thanks to you, General! If it weren't for you, I'd be finished! ā
"Miss your dad?" Lan Xue asked suddenly.
Sun Peng was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I don't want to." ā
"Tell the truth!"
"I... Thought! Sun Peng lowered his head and said softly.
Lan Xue nodded and said, "I'll let you all go home in a few days and see your father and mother." ā
"Really?" Sun Peng's eyes lit up.
"Of course, am I going to lie to you?" Lan Xue said with a smile.
"General Xie!" Sun Peng shouted excitedly.
The two chatted for a while, and soon they heard neat and loud footsteps in the distance, and then, with the flying dust, a team was running quickly towards this direction.
"General, you asked them to come back, is there something big to say!" Sun Peng also asked with some expectation.
Lan Xue nodded and said, "Let's go over!" Stand up, and I'll tell you. ā
"Yes!"
Soon, the big man and the thin monkey led the soldiers to stand neatly, waiting for Lan Xue to speak.
Lan Xue walked in front of the soldiers, swept her gaze over everyone, and then smiled faintly and said, "I came to you today, I really have a very important thing to tell you. ā
"General, isn't it about the Imperial Forest!" The thin monkey on the side couldn't help but shout.
Lan Xue glanced at him, then looked at everyone's expectant eyes, nodded with a smile, and said, "That's right, that's it!" ā
"I have explained this matter to the Holy One, and the Holy One has agreed that as long as you pass the Guards exam, you can become the Guards, but only if this exam is more difficult than the normal one, you... There is no faith! ā
"Yes!" All the soldiers, shouted in unison.
Lan Xue nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay!" Since you all have faith, what are you waiting for? Come with me! ā
"Yes!"
