Chapter 377: Majestic

Thinking of taking the reading test, Fang Jifan felt a little sad!

If I knew this, it would have been good to practice some bow horses at the beginning.

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao with anticipation and said, "That, I'...... Can I not go? My brain ......"

Zhu Houzhao seemed to see Fang Jifan's thoughts, his face was a little gloating, and he sneered: "Oh, you go and talk to your father by yourself." ”

Fang Jifan could only look at Zhu Houzhao with resentment!

Regarding this reading test, it is simply a tragedy in the world, and Fang Jifan knows this too well.

Because......... No one expected that Da Ming's armament had actually slackened to this point! Even before that, Emperor Hongzhi was full of self-confidence!

Of course...... Fang Jifan himself is also responsible, as a member of a group of scumbags, although he knows that the law does not blame the public, and the eldest brother does not laugh at the second brother, but if he has no ability, he has no ability.

This review test, this is Emperor Hongzhi has been premeditated for a long time, he has a good impression of the nobles and military attachés, most of the military attaches on duty in the palace, most of them look powerful, although they have experienced the haze of the battle of Tumubao, but after all, so many years have passed, think about it, these children are angry and strong, it will be impressive.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi sat in the warm pavilion, holding in his hand what was the performance of the commanders of the guards, which were touted that the current saint held a parade, which could allow the military attachés at the bottom to show their skills, so that the upper and lower people were deeply encouraged, and countless people were eager to try the clouds.

Emperor Hongzhi looked very happy, and he couldn't help but say to Xiao Jing on the side: "These days, the matter of being conscripted into North Korea has made me dizzy, and my heart is really not a taste." Look, I have a lot of brave people in the Ming Dynasty, they are the guarantee of my Ming Dynasty, this reading test, of great significance, I decided to watch the ceremony in person, the test will be carried out in the urn city, where the place is open, but also let the military and civilians, good to see. ”

Xiao Jing saw that His Majesty was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "What Your Majesty said is that the generals and colonels of the three armed forces all don't want to show their skills in front of Your Majesty. ”

Emperor Hongzhi nodded proudly.

This reading test has added an extraordinary layer of significance.

The most important of these is to deter the Quartet, so that the vassal states know that such a great rebellion as Li Long of the Korean State will not end well, and secondly, it is also the response of the scholars of the world to Li Long's verbal criticism and complaining about why the imperial court did not send troops as soon as possible.

Emperor Hongzhi put down the letter of the letter, and sighed for a long time: "Reading the test is not only better than Wen Tao, but also better than Wu Luo, riding and shooting is fundamental, but Wu Luo can not be relaxed, this scripture question, what should be good?" ”

Xiao Jing glanced at Emperor Hongzhi deeply: "Your Majesty, isn't the imperial court worried about the affairs of the Korean State right now?" ”

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and was noncommittal, and now he naturally couldn't leak the topic.

He stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said while walking: "The last time I went to the West Mountain, I thought in my heart, this great river and mountain, but it also needs to be guarded by a sword and axe, I want to make the whole world like the West Mountain, and naturally I also need strong soldiers and horses, so that no one dares to violate my Ming Dynasty." ”

"Spread the message to the British Gong Zhang Mao, and tell the Taimiao on my behalf."

Xiao Jing replied respectfully: "Yes." ”

…………

The British Gong Zhang Mao, once again representing the Son of Heaven, went to the Taimiao Temple to pay tribute.

As soon as the news came out, Man Jingshi knew that the examination was imminent.

By the ninth day of the first month of February, the weather was getting warmer, and this year's climate was slightly better than before, but the examination had quietly kicked off.

The first test in this game is mounted archery.

When it comes to riding and shooting, Zhang Mao is very excited!

Early in the morning, he dressed properly and tied his gold belt at the same time, as if to remind His Majesty that he had won the favor of Emperor Chenghua by riding and archery!

Zhang Mao entered the palace and saw Emperor Hongzhi, so he bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the auspicious time is coming." ”

Emperor Hongzhi was dressed in a crown robe, Xiao Jing tiptoed behind Emperor Hongzhi, holding Emperor Hongzhi's back, Emperor Hongzhi bowed his head and said: "Excuse me, warriors, are you ready?" ”

"Your Majesty, you're all ready!" Zhang Mao smiled and said: "The candidates, the uncles, and the military attachés of the Praetorian Guard, sharpen their swords, just waiting for Your Majesty to watch the ceremony, they are very excited to learn that Your Majesty is coming. ”

Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "Others say that I value literature and light martial arts, but I don't know that this civil and military affairs are treated equally, and today's viewing ceremony is to let the secretaries know that I am absolutely unbiased, by the way, Fang Jifan...... Went too, right? ”

"Go."

That being said, but when Zhang Mao thought of this kid, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh!

He was afraid that Fang Jifan would pretend to be sick, he was a new uncle, and His Majesty must have paid attention to him, so others could not go, but Fang Jifan, a stupid boy, had to go! After all, if you don't go, it's a matter of attitude, and if you go, you lose someone, it's just a matter of ability.

Therefore, early this morning, before entering the palace, he deliberately went to Fang's house first and took Fang Jifan to the camp.

It's just that Zhang Mao didn't tell His Majesty that Fang Jifan was taken away, and it wasn't until now that Zhang Mao found out that Fang Jifan, this kid, has grown up, and he is no longer the stinky boy who doesn't want Bilian.

At this time, he said again: "Fang Jifan heard that His Majesty was watching the ceremony, and he was overjoyed, he said that although he was not good at riding and shooting, His Majesty went to read it in person, he was fierce and energetic, and his spirit was ......."

Emperor Hongzhi was about to frown, because in his understanding, this Fang Jifan was going to find a reason to be lazy, but he never thought that this guy was actually quite sensible.

It's really more and more stable!

Emperor Hongzhi sighed in his heart, so he said, "Let's drive." ”

Today's Fang Jifan is dressed in a military uniform, he is tall and thin, but he also looks heroic!

But on the contrary, he is a showman, he and many noble sons and daughters, I don't know each other, only some sad-faced military attachés of the Tuntian Qianhu Institute and Zhang Xin, standing together one by one!

Growing vegetables and fruits and fiddling with flowers and plants every day, how can they have the heart to practice arching horses?

Seeing Fang Qianhu coming, everyone stared at each other, looking very embarrassed, as if a group of top students met in physical education class.

"I've seen a thousand households."

Fang Jifan put his hands behind his back and looked at them with a smile: "Are you ready?" ”

After so many years, I still can't change the mentality of pretending to be forced.

Zhang Xin and the others admired Fang Jifan very much, the last time they saw Fang Qianhu riding a horse, the horse was also very strong, jumping up and down, Fang Jifan was screaming on the horse, and he almost fell off the horse several times, but even so, Fang Qianhu was still so calm and calm, so calm and calm, worthy of Fang Qianhu.

"Ready...... The preparation is fine. Zhang Xin and the others looked ashamed, and their faces were a little red.

Fang Jifan encouraged them: "Don't be arrogant or impatient, don't lose the face of the thousand households in Tuntian, riding and shooting is not a difficult thing, it is nothing more than riding a horse and shooting arrows, well, just master the skills, don't be afraid." ”

"Yes."

On the tower of the urn city, Emperor Hongzhi has arrived, and all the officials have gathered around him, and they all came to pay their respects!

Emperor Hongzhi smiled, looked from afar, and saw that there were many low-level officials, as well as the envoys in Beijing were on the city wall in the distance, and specially invited some village elders to come to watch the ceremony, Emperor Hongzhi was very satisfied: "Mingjin, let's start." ”

Not to mention the Praetorian Guard Camp, the supplies of the imperial court are sufficient, and they are all burly, and the sons and daughters of the nobles are all military generals, and Lao Tzu is a hero.

Even Jingying is the elite of the Ming Dynasty.

So, under the order of Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the military department, gongs began to sound on the city tower, and drums began to sound on the city wall.

Under the earth-shattering drums, the gates leading to the city were wide open, and countless military uniforms, energetic noble sons and military attachés lined up, slowly beating their horses forward.

From afar, it is very majestic.

Xie Qian stood beside Emperor Hongzhi and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this mighty army is also. ”

Emperor Hongji smiled and nodded.

Zhu Houzhao on the side looked from afar, but he saw a hint of clues, and his lips couldn't help but hook up a sneer, and said in a somewhat contemptuous tone: "Flower shelf." ”

Zhu Houzhao originally came with expectations, but when he saw that the officials who came out of the city gate were all wearing chain mail and a bronze and iron fan yang hat on their heads, they were indeed majestic, but they were suddenly disappointed.

This voice happened to be heard by Emperor Hongzhi!

So Emperor Hongzhi glared at Zhu Houzhao and reprimanded: "You are the crown prince, how can you humiliate the soldiers like this?" ”

Zhu Houzhao seemed to want to argue a few words: "Erchen ......"

"It's getting worse and worse." Emperor Hongzhi said: "The prince must love the people like a son, and he must also love the soldiers like a son, so harsh, who wants to serve you?" ”

"What do you mean...... Ah, Fang Jifan is here. Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, and he looked down a little towards the city.

Fang Jifan beat the horse and mixed it in the crowd, urging the horse, moving slowly, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart!

It turned out to be like a tour bus like a walk around, so dangerous, he deliberately lowered the speed of the horse, fell behind Zhang Xin and others, with a bronze Fan Yang hat on his head, a goose feather on his head, a royal arrow obliquely inserted in his waist, a quiver behind him, a finch painting horn bow hung on his waist, all the way to the bell and a hammer, simply revealed the majesty of the eighteenth generation of ancestors.

On the side, there was a fat military attache panting on his horse, as if he was about to suffocate, and shouted: "Go slower, go slower, eh......"

"Hey, I said I was going to shoot an arrow, I shot an arrow."

There was a commotion in the back, and the majestic guys began to feel uncomfortable, and many of them had miserable faces.

"Is it a foot bow or a mounted archery?" The fat man's forehead was covered with sweat, and he asked in a low voice.

Someone is tall and can see far away: "The horses are all ridden, of course they are riding and shooting, where can it be a foot bow?" When it was over, I was scared, and as soon as the horse ran fast, my heart panicked. ”

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid...... Steady! Someone whispered, "Let's slow down and go back to the end." ”

When they turned back, they saw that the most majestic fellow, who had slipped through the smoke, had already pulled his horse to the back of the line.
