Chapter 34 The two disciples are mighty, and the hundred officials are shaken
With the order of Emperor Hongzhi, the review officially began.
The two teams of soldiers and horses entered in an orderly manner from both sides of the school field like a military exercise, and they dismounted with knives, showing the military strength of the Ming Dynasty in a mighty but silent manner.
These soldiers and horses are the elite of the Ming Dynasty, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, even if they are compared to the Tatar army, they are not far behind, and they belong to the military department.
Then, it's time for the main event.
Xiangcheng Bo Li Yan pulled out his long knife, his eyes looked in all directions like electricity, and when he saw Zhang Hao and others, especially Zhao Xiu, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but his demeanor did not move at all, and he shouted: "Read!" ”
The voice is strong and powerful, and it is Xiangcheng Bo who was born in the military, which makes people cheer up when they hear it.
The children of Wuxun who participated in the review did not dare to slack off, and they lined up to drill.
At the time of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the proofreading was very solemn, and no etiquette could be exceeded.
In addition to arrays, there are also mounted archery, fighting, autumn hunting, and so on......
But by now, the latter has basically become a non-existent entity, and all of them have been replaced by some things from Wenchen, and only the array remains.
As a result, the civil and military officials saw that the martial arts disciples who were being reviewed stood together one after another, holding long knives and forming a phalanx.
As for the gestures they showed......
It's a bit unsatisfactory.
Improper posture, different steps, and different expressions.
After all, they are all prominent teenagers, who are delicate and expensive on weekdays, who would have nothing to do to suffer this kind of hardship.
Emperor Hongzhi sat in the highest position, overlooking the Wuxun disciples below, although he was silent on the surface, he sighed in his heart.
Although thirteen years have passed since the succession to the throne, the conscientious work of the state, often reducing taxes, and actively allocating funds for disaster relief, can be more than enough, and the progress is insufficient.
And since the change of Tumubao, the martial artists of the entire Ming Dynasty have suffered a huge blow mentally, and even these children are uneven, how can he not worry?
Thinking of this, Emperor Hongzhi was quite interested in the idea of rejuvenating Yan Shan, thinking about whether to cancel the school review in the future, after all, the people and money were lost, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that he still couldn't move.
Ancestral rituals can be changed, but they must not be abolished.
The hundred officials didn't know what Emperor Hongzhi thought, and according to the rules, they complimented one after another.
First, four cabinet ministers spoke.
Xu Pu, the first assistant of the cabinet, was quite old, so he only praised him: "Thanks to Your Majesty's grace, the Ming Dynasty opened the country with martial arts, and there is such a heroic and martial arts, which has the potential of Zhongxing." ”
Liu Jian also praised: "Governing the country with literature, and securing the world with martial arts, after all the princes and nobles of the country, they are really extraordinary." ”
Xie Qian and Ma Dongyang also praised and stroked their palms.
The martial artists knew their own family affairs, and they were not so thick-skinned, but they just bowed their hands to Emperor Hongzhi, claiming that the emperor's grace was mighty.
Emperor Hongzhi reluctantly smiled: "But it is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty." ”
Then, he stopped talking, but sighed faintly, which made the hundred officials instantly understand the king's intentions and shut up one after another.
The review continues.
Emperor Hongzhi stared at the Wuxun children in the array, looking forward to picking out some good seedlings from them, which could be of great use in the future.
The number of people participating in the review is not large, only a few hundred, and it is not difficult to read them one by one.
But as Emperor Hongzhi's gaze swept over everyone, his heart sank little by little, and he was disappointed to find that he didn't see anyone who could make people's eyes shine.
Could it be that my Ming talent is withering, and no one cares?
Emperor Hongji doubted that life was born.
But at this moment, several people in front of the right side of the formation attracted his attention.
There was a disciple dressed in chain mail, wearing a red lacquered Yongzi helmet, holding a long knife, his back was straight, full of momentum, and he was not very angry.
He is none other than Xu Pengju, the son of Wei Guogong.
Emperor Hongzhi still remembers that last year today, this kid was still quite perverse, and even made a move with someone during the school review, but he didn't expect to worship Mr. Du Shen as a teacher, but he changed completely.
It's not a loss to Du Shen, the disciples all have such a set!
What a talent!
Emperor Hongzhi smiled, stroked his palms and praised: "This son can be of great use!" ”
Zhu Houzhao clenched his fists excitedly, and shouted wildly in his heart, this is my third senior brother!
Offstage!
When Wei Guogong Xu Gongfu heard this, he was shocked, and he couldn't help muttering to himself, don't you know what kind of character this little son is?
It's just a powerless scourge, and the person in this audience is really his own son?
Even if he worships under Mr. Du Shen, it seems that he is a scholar, how can he teach such a big change?
He was surprised, but he didn't know that Xu Pengju was under Du Shenmen, in addition to learning some basic knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry, he didn't take "physical education classes" on weekdays, and he worked hard and tiredly, no matter how weak he was, he had to become a macho man!
Xu Gongfu thought so, but he didn't forget to respond to Emperor Hongzhi, he said humbly: "Thanks to Your Majesty's love, my rebellious son is still stubborn, and he still needs to polish a lot." ”
Although the words were modest, anyone could see the pride on his face.
The officials also said hello, and even the four cabinet ministers praised them a lot.
Xu Gongfu hugged his fists one by one, his heart blossomed, but he said: "False praise and false praise, my old Xu family's species has been like this since ancient times, Pengju's ability is really nothing, don't praise it too much." ”
If it weren't for the fact that he laughed while talking and his beard trembled with excitement, the officials would really believe it.
And the Wuxun nobles were puzzled, everyone is an old acquaintance, who doesn't know what kind of son you are of Wei Guogong?
But today's gesture is really shocking, and I guess whether Xu Gongfu, an old thing, secretly gave his son special training.
The rank of martial arts is superior, and the children naturally have a comparison.
At this time, I don't know who suddenly shouted.
"Look, there's another young talent."
Everyone looked sideways.
Emperor Hongzhi looked over even more.
After seeing the change in the array, Xu Pengju retreated, and Zhao Xiu, the son of Xin Chengbo, took his place.
Unlike Xu Pengju, Zhao Xiu has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and although his figure does not appear strong, if he talks about combat effectiveness, he is no worse than a man in his prime.
Therefore, since he stood up, his eyes were blazing, and he walked with a dragon and tiger step, which was quite heroic, and the martial arts disciples in the front row of the array looked even more dim.
The so-called flowers also need to be lined with green leaves.
Today's Zhao Xiu is the flower, and the others can only be green leaves.
Emperor Hongzhi was even more satisfied, and tapped his palm in approval.
"Good! is a good Zhao Xiuyuan, a good teacher Du Shen. ”
He still remembered that it was this kid who beat the son of Xiangcheng Bo Li Yan last year, which was also a scourge like a demon king in the world, and he didn't expect that now he has become such a young talent, all of which are good taught by Du Shen!
The four cabinet ministers nodded secretly, and this son can be so admired by His Majesty, and it is limitless in the future.
The officials did not dare to slack off, and they all congratulated Zhao Jin.
"Congratulations, Uncle Xincheng has a son like this, what more can you ask for!"
"It's all taught by Mr. Du Shen!"
Zhao Jin smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking light-hearted, but he was secretly refreshed in his heart, in the past, his son was praised so much, it would be good not to curse and scold, it seems that it is a wise move to send it to Mr. Du Shen's door.
It's Du Shen again!
The hearts of the civil and military officials shook wildly, it was not the first time they heard Du Shen's name, the earlier plan against the Tatars was offered by this person, just now His Majesty mentioned the name of this person again, and Xin Chengbo pointed out his son to worship under his door, this person has such a great talent?
They looked at Duke Xu of Wei again, and asked tentatively, "Duke Xu?" Could it be that Linglang also ......"
Xu Gongfu stroked his beard and said proudly: "Yes, Mr. Du Shen is a good teacher for me!" ”
