Martial arts test site.

The martial arts test once every three years is a grand event of the entire dynasty, and the whole capital is lively because of this grand event, and the people are wandering around the streets out of curiosity.

The gongs and drums sounded, and with the order of the chief examiner, the candidates separated in pairs according to the instructions and stood opposite each other.

The martial arts test is divided into two parts: theory and actual combat, and those who can now compete in the ring are those who are theoretically qualified.

Since the succession to the throne, the saint has made changes to the martial arts test, adding the theoretical test, although the candidate is not required to be proficient in the "Art of War", but he can read the Ding, he wants a useful talent who can determine the country and the martial arts, not only a person who is full of etiquette and morality, has developed limbs and is simple-minded.

Nan'an is such a person.

The first round of the competition is a simple and direct knockout round, regardless of origin, regardless of background, draw lots to select the object of the competition, the losing side directly loses the qualification to continue the game, the winner will get an official and a half position in this martial arts test, and the last ten people who win are called the first class.

Every candidate knows what the first round of the competition means, standing in front of the opponent, wanting to win, without concealment, this is the result that the saint wants to see.

Nan'an's opponent was obviously also a Lian Jiazi, and as the gong sounded again, the sharp moves attacked Nan'an.

In one move and one move, Nan An responded calmly, obviously not having much of a win in the moves, but just when everyone thought he would be hit, he skillfully avoided it.

Yes, Nan'an is hiding his strength, and it is not appropriate to use all his strength now, just a competition.

When the opponent was still secretly happy to find Nan'an's loophole, he was defeated by his counterattack.

The time of a stick of incense is almost over, if the two sides are still in the ring, it will be added for half an hour, Nan'an saw that the time was almost up, and deliberately bought a loophole, so that the other party could find out, while the other party was not paying attention, the palm of his hand gathered qi, and he slapped the person out of the ring with one palm.

What kind of elegance is it?

Dressed in a navy blue brocade robe, the hem of the clothes was gently blown in the wind, the waist was evenly colored, the jade belt with orchid patterns, and the inky blue silk could not cover his cold fragrance.

The voices of the people present clapped and applauded, as if they had nothing to do with him, and said nonchalantly: "I have conceded" and stepped off the stage.

In the subsequent competition, Nan'an still won just right, just right to let everyone know that he is not simple, but he can't get a glimpse of his true strength.

Among the ten first-class people, Nan'an's name is the most memorable, just like his people, putting them in the pile is the most eye-catching existence.

In the final competition, the saint and the important ministers of the court were present to witness the birth of the champion of martial arts.

Ten people try to compete with each other, pass the plum blossom pile, go up to the stilted high-rise building to win the Oiran winner.

It is not only more important to outwit than force, but also to test the candidate's on-the-spot adaptability.

Nan'an used seventy percent of its strength.

If Mu Yunge was present, he would definitely be shocked, because Nan'an's moves and styles were too similar to Lin Xuanqing, but unfortunately there was no one present who was as familiar with Lin Xuanqing as she was, except for the saint.

The fierce competition saw everyone in the audience applaud again and again, only to see Nan'an fly and sweep his legs to trip the three people who were still standing, paced over the plum blossom stake, and took off the Oiran with a few feet.

"Okay, well, Nan'an is the champion of martial arts, he deserves it, he deserves it."

The saint did not hesitate to praise Nan'an, which made the magnates present look at him a few times higher, and secretly thought about wishful thinking in their hearts.

"The Holy One has praised it." In the face of the praise of the saint, Nan'an accepted it without humility or arrogance, and there were no superfluous words.

"The men present are all the pillars of my dynasty, I am happy, tonight there is a banquet in Shoukang Palace, you must be there to celebrate."

The voice of the eunuch was transmitted, so that everyone inside and outside the hall clearly knew the next person to enter the palace.

Nan'an arrived not early or late, and as soon as he sat down, someone said: "Nan'an, this time the saint must be rewarded, this glass of wine, I respect you." ”

"Your Excellency is polite, Nan'an is just lucky, I will salute you with tea instead of wine."

A hint of embarrassment flashed across the man's face, and he immediately laughed twice to hide it.

"The Holy Lord, the Queen Mother has arrived."

As soon as the word was heard, everyone stood up and bowed their heads, "Welcome to the Holy Lord and the Queen Mother." ”

The saint and the queen walked up to the main seat together, and when they sat down, the saint stretched out his hand to help the queen.

The people below saw this in their eyes, and one of the female dependents whispered to the woman next to her: "The saint treats the queen mother so well, and it is enviable." ”

"I have heard that the Holy Queen and her wife are deeply affectionate, and it seems to be true."

“……”

In the whispers below, the Holy Lord waved his hand and said unhappily: "Listen to the reward." ”

Xiao Zhuozi received the order, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: Give Nan'an the title of champion of martial arts, the post of squire of the military department, a mansion, three hundred taels of gold, two hundred taels of silver, and fifty horses of brocade ......"

The Holy Decree rewarded the winners of the martial arts test one by one, but why didn't they expect that Nan'an was given the position of a squire in the Ministry of War, which was second only to the position of the secretary of the Ministry of War, and some people were just like this in the officialdom all their lives.

Everyone looked at Nan'an's expressions and changed again.

Li Xiang was the first to hold a wine glass and congratulate Nan'an: "Nan Daren, the future life is terrifying, I respect you for this glass of wine, and we will be officials together in the future, but we need a lot of help." ”

Li Xiang's goodwill could not be more obvious, but Nanan also refused.

"Li Xiang, I won't drink the wine, please bear with me in the future."

The cold appearance turned people away, and Li Xiang was unhappy and not good at attacking in front of the saint.

Then several officials openly and secretly made overt and secret gestures to Nan'an, and he pretended not to see it, drinking the tea in front of him, and taking the banquet set up for him as a joke.

After being deflated, several officials began to sneer at Nan'an.

"What kind of character do you really think you are?" King Yong'an intended to draw Nan'an into his camp, and he didn't say much this time, but now he is a little disdainful.

I've seen Qinggao and arrogant, but I've never seen someone like Nan'an.

Obviously, the toast does not eat and eats the penalty wine.

"King Yong'an, this is a bad statement, but I feel that Nan'an's move is really a wise move, not catering to everyone, and now I haven't touched the situation of all parties in the Qing Dynasty, and I don't stand in line at will, I want to come to this person to know what he wants in his heart. And we found his weakness, good to make use of, such a talent, rare, I secretly observed this person for a long time, he has a lot of hills in his chest, I admire it very much. ”

Zheng Feng also whispered to King Yong'an, his eyes full of admiration.

King Yong'an played with the wine glass in his hand, "So, very good." ”

The Holy Lord watched them secretly compete with each other, and from time to time asked them to raise their glasses together, and a banquet ended in the undercurrent.
