In the tall ring, two men are competing fiercely. Both men were in their early twenties, dressed in the same clothes, and fought with their opponents empty-handed.

The four sides of the ring were crowded with people, and two groups of people stood on either side of the ring, staring at the ring, and every time the people on their side hit the opposite person with their fists, they would let out the loudest cheers.

Yun stood on the side of the ring, smiling at the two people who were competing on the stage, and from time to time he said a few words to the guards. At this time, seeing one of them knocking down the other person cleanly, he turned his head sideways and smiled with Song Qingshu: "Song Qing, how does this person's martial arts compare to yours?" I see that you have the level of bringing down Li Bo and the others back then. ”

"The students of the martial arts hall are the most outstanding people among the Ming soldiers, even if the martial arts are not bad, how can they be compared to them?" Song Qingshu said 'humbly'.

"Haha, you still think that your martial arts are above them!" Yun smiled: "But also, you are a lay disciple of the Wudang Sect, and in addition to reciting Taoist classics on weekdays, you practice martial arts, of course, you are stronger than them." Not to mention you, it's Zhang Wuji, although he is still young, his body bones have not fully grown, and he is much stronger than the students here in terms of martial arts. ”

"If my martial arts can't match them, how can I be a guard by Your Majesty's side!" Zhang Wuji agreed modestly.

Everyone laughed a few words, the competitions in each ring have all ended, and after Yu Zhouwen finished counting, he came over and reported to Yun Xuan: "Your Majesty, the martial arts competition between the second-year students who are about to graduate and the advanced class students have all been compared, and the results of this course have come out." ”

"The last course to be examined in the classroom has also been completed yesterday, and the results of the gentlemen's overnight correction of the test papers have also been corrected. With the summary of the results of the martial arts competition that ended today, the total score has also been counted, please read it. ”

"Oh." Yun took the transcript from his hand and looked at it, seeing that the ink on it had not yet dried, he smiled: "Don't be in such a hurry, just send it to me tomorrow." ”

"The ministers are just a little counted, and it is not troublesome, of course, they must be presented to Your Majesty now." Yu Zhouwen replied with a smile.

Yun casually flipped through a few times, and learned about the top ten students with him, then stuffed the report book back into Yu Zhouwen's hand, and asked: "I don't look at the back much, you can tell me, in addition to these people, which one has some ability." ”

"Your Majesty, the forty-third ranked in this exam is named Qin Shuang, although the ranking is not very high, but he studies very seriously on weekdays, and he is also smart, and he thinks he is a talent." Yu Zhouwen replied.

Yun asked a few more words, and learned that Qin Shuang was from Yiwu, his eyes narrowed, but he didn't say anything.

As he spoke, the students who had just finished the martial arts test had already put on their clothes again and discussed the test results with their classmates. Some of the results of each course have been announced, and everyone who has not announced it can guess that it is not far from ten.

A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes said to another man who looked more gentle: "Qin Shuang, how did you do in the exam this time?" Can it be in the top 30? ”

"I don't think so." Qin Shuang said: "I didn't succeed in the command class, and I only got eighty-six points, even if our class won the first place in this martial arts class, I can't memorize it, I estimate that it is about fifty." ”

"Fifty is not bad, I am about one hundred and fifty this time." The thick-eyed man who asked just now said.

"Han Cheng, your father is a commander, as long as he can graduate from here, he will be able to smoothly become the official position of the hereditary commander after he goes back, and what is the lower ranking." The other laughed.

"That's not what I said. If you are at the bottom of the rankings, you can only go home and wait for the hereditary. I want to stay in the capital as an official, even if I give the hereditary position in the family to the second brother. It's not that you have to be promoted to a big official, but I just think what's the point of being a commander in my hometown all the time? ”

"My family is from Changsha County, Huguang, Changsha County is also the capital of Changsha Prefecture, I have also been to Wuchang, I don't think it is much stronger than Changsha, I think the cities in the world are the same."

"But after coming to the capital in the past two years, I realized that there are still such prosperous places in the world, and there is such prosperity! I'm not afraid of your jokes, when I first came, I went to the bazaar, went to the tile shop, and I couldn't recognize what many things were, and I didn't dare to ask for fear of people's jokes, or Li Jing, who was born in Jingwei, took me to shop to know what those things were. The food and clothing in the capital are far better than Changsha, I have never heard of many food before, and I have been used to it in the past two years, so I can't stand it when I go back to Changsha to live the original life. Han Cheng said.

"But if you can't stay in the capital, what will you do?" Qin Shuang asked.

He actually has the same feelings as Han Cheng, but although he is greedy for the prosperity of the capital, he misses his family more and is willing to go back. What's more, he is only from a hundred households, and he doesn't have much money on hand, unlike Han Cheng, who has a lot of money in his hand and goes out to enjoy every holiday, so he doesn't fall deeply.

"This, hey, what's the way, I can only go back honestly." If he can't stay in the capital as an official, his family will not be able to enjoy anything without his money, and he may even become a beggar.

He was sighing, when suddenly Zheng Xuan came over and called the squad leaders of each squad over and ordered a few words, and the squad leaders of their squad came over and shouted loudly: "Get up!" Get up! Hurry up to the big classroom! Fast! ”

"What's going on?" Han Cheng asked as he stood up.

"The emperor wants to give a lecture!"

Soon, the lecture hall with a capacity of three hundred and twenty people was full of people, and all three hundred people were sitting inside, waiting for Yun to speak.

Yun spoke to Yu Zhouwen as he walked towards the lecture hall. He walked into the classroom and swept around, only to see 300 people in the room sitting on chairs with their chests upright, 600 eyes staring straight ahead, but they couldn't even hear the cough, and suddenly secretly praised in their hearts.

He walked to the podium and coughed lightly, and Zheng Xuan, who was following him, immediately shouted, "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

Hearing only a loud sound, three hundred people stood up at the same time, bowed to Yun and said, "The minister has seen Your Majesty, long live long live long live!" ”

"Flat." Yun said. The guards next to him immediately shouted out his words.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The three hundred students shouted in unison, and then sat down again.

Yun coughed again and began to speak.
