"I'll talk about it when I learn it. ”

In the face of Mingzong's plea, Xiaohua could only reply like this.

After all, it is still a question whether his own master will agree.

Actually, Mingzong also said it casually.

He didn't want Xiaohua to take such a big risk.

Moreover, with Xiaohua's cultivation, even if he learns the Hidden Sword Slash, he will not be able to completely use the Hidden Sword Slash until the Realm Breaking Grandmaster can use the Hidden Sword Slash to perfection.

"By the way, there's something I want to tell you. ”

Mingzong put the half-solved Nine Links back on the table and said, "The first seven of the Heavenly Son Examination will come out in a few days, and at that time, I hope you will take these seven martial artists to Sutuo Mausoleum to watch the martial arts." ”

......

Since the 17,300 year of the origin calendar, after the establishment of the imperial examination by the Great Sui Dynasty, which unified Zhongzhou and Western Shu, the subsequent Zhongzhou Dynasty has always retained this system.

At the same time, the Tang Dynasty also added a martial arts test on the basis of the literary test.

This is the test of the Son of Heaven.

All in all, the Son of Heaven test does not select hundreds of jinshi like the literary test, but only takes the top seven.

And this rule was set by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who almost led the Yunwu army to Yinshan, the holy land of the Northern Barbarians.

Because when His Majesty Emperor Wu marched into the Northern Barbarians, he saw the wonder of the Seven Stars.

From this, he decided that it must be the seven Han courtiers who destroyed the Northern Barbarians in the end.

Naturally, the courtiers who can destroy the Northern Barbarians must be cultivators.

And the most stringent means for the Zhongzhou Dynasty to select cultivators for their own use was the Tianzi Test.

It can be said that no matter which Zhongzhou dynasty, the cultivators selected from the Son of Heaven test are the future mainstays of this dynasty.

The Dingbei Marquis, who is now in command of the Northern Military Government, is the third place in the former Son of Heaven Examination.

......

The Son of Heaven test is held every 20 years, and the conditions for participating in the test are Zhongzhou people, Ning Yuan Realm cultivation, male and female, and as for age, there is no limit.

Of course, before that, the embroidery guard will make the background checks of the candidates who participated in the examination clear.

Famous figures have appeared in previous Tianzi examinations.

But one of the most eye-catching tests in recent years was the one 40 years ago.

Because this time, the Wujin warriors selected by the Son of Heaven were later called the Seven Swords of Zhongzhou.

Among the seven sword cultivators, Yishan accounted for three, Xie Luo accounted for two, and the two who gave birth were disciples of other sects.

"Too much of the limelight. ”

After this Son of Heaven test, Yishan rarely sent people to participate in the Son of Heaven test.

Because Zhuo Aofeng thinks that the limelight is too much.

Of course, for the sake of Zhongzhou's stability, Yishan will still send disciples to serve in the army.

As for Xie Luo, because Taoism is supported by the Great Jin, Xie Luo still sent his disciples to participate in the Son of Heaven Test. However, according to reliable information, Xie Luo would not send elite disciples of the sect to participate in the test in the future.

After all, if all the talents are given to the imperial court, there will be no development for themselves.

You must know that Xie Luo is a big faction that has gone through several dynasties.

Of course, the old Yishan also spanned four dynasties in a row.

......

The rules for the first seven people to go to the Sutuo Mausoleum to watch the martial arts were set during the Taizong period.

Of course, this is something to look forward to.

Because the Sutuo Mausoleum is engraved with all the mystical skills created by Chen Xutuo, the first generation of Zhenguo Gong of the Great Jin Dynasty.

And because Chen Xutuo insisted that he was walking the martial arts path instead of the path of cultivation, therefore, the Son of Heaven tried the first seven Dao Sutuo Tombs to learn the mystical arts, which is also called Guanwu.

......

Sutuo Mausoleum is located in the northern city of Luojing, this place is not only protected by the formation, but also guarded by an army.

It was the 3,000 Zhengyu army that had been waiting for the south in the past.

At the same time, the Zhenguo Mansion and the Imperial Court also sent a strong man to guard the Sutuo Tomb.

It can be said that the importance of Sutuo Tomb to the Zhongzhou Dynasty is no less than that of those big factions in Zhongzhou.

......

"The prince of the town, the prince of the country, the prince of the country, the south waits. Mingzong looked at the three paintings on the west wall of the Qinzheng Hall and said, "It's a pity that I don't have such a capable person in my hands. ”

Xiaohua, who was born in the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty, naturally knows the story of these three legendary figures, and it can be said that without these three people, His Majesty Taizong would never be able to sit on the throne.

It's just that with the passage of time, only the Zhenguo Mansion is left in the current Great Jin Dynasty, and as for the Protector of the Kingdom, the two nobles of Zhengnanhou have dissipated.

Of course, this dissipation is not the incompetence of the descendants, but the fact that they sacrificed everything for the sake of the Great Jin.

"Uncle, why didn't His Majesty Taizong make Nanhou a duke back then. Xiaohua asked.

She had been puzzled about this question for a long time, but she never had a chance to ask.

Of course, with the achievements left by Zheng Nanhou in the history books, he can definitely be crowned. Not to mention that the other party is also a minister of martyrdom who His Majesty Taizong raised troops in Weihe.

"There is something that I have never told you, so let me tell you today. ”

Mingzong rarely told people about the past.

Of course, those concubines in the harem never asked about this.

Because the past events in the emperor's mouth are most likely political affairs.

The consequences are not allowed to interfere in politics.

This is the iron rule of all Zhongzhou dynasties.

You must know that the former Tang Dynasty was almost subverted by the queen mother.

"Uncle, please. ”

Xiaohua was very happy when she saw that Mingzong was going to talk about the past.

Mingzong walked towards the west wall of the Qinzheng Palace.

Originally, the west wall of this Qinzheng Hall was called the Guozuo Wall, and there were many portraits of heroes hanging on it, but before Taizong died, all the portraits on this wall were moved to Lingyan Pavilion, and then, His Majesty Taizong hung the portraits of Zhenguo Gong, Huguo Gong, and Zhengnan Hou. Moreover, His Majesty Taizong also left a will, and future generations of kings are not allowed to touch the three paintings, otherwise there will be no place to bury them.

Taizong left such a will, which shows the importance of the three people of Zhenguogong, Huguogong, and Zhengnanhou in his heart.

"Don't you think this portrait of Zheng Nanhou is a bit delicate?"

Mingzong pointed to the portrait of Zheng Nanhou.

These three portraits were all painted by Wu Daozi, a painter in the Taizong period, and the pen power is extremely thick, so even if nearly a thousand years have passed, these portraits have not changed.

"Qingxiu?" Xiaohua had seen these paintings before, but she didn't look at them carefully, so she listened to what her uncle said, so she looked at them with her heart.

Sure enough, the face of Zheng Nanhou, who was riding a white horse in the portrait, was very delicate.

Moreover, there seems to be some tenderness in the eyes of the other party.

"When Wu Daozi painted this painting, Zheng Nanhou had been dead for many years, so this portrait was painted by Wu Daozi according to the description of His Majesty Taizong. His Majesty Mingzong said: "Moreover, after the portrait came out, Taizong was very satisfied and said that it was very similar. ”

Xiaohua suddenly realized: "I understand, it is said that when Zhengnanhou leads his troops to fight, he likes to wear a bronze ghost mask, which must be because he is too handsome, and he is worried that he will not be able to deter the enemy, so he covers his face with a mask." ”

"Actually, he looks like a female general from a distance. ”

Xiaohua said.

But there have always been few female generals in the battle array.

After all, the army is full of male sergeants, and it is inconvenient for female generals to lead soldiers.

"Actually, it's not like a woman, but she's a woman. ”

Mingzong said suddenly.
