Chapter 199: On the Phantom Army (1st Update)

After Mo Jin was secretly arranged, Yuan Xi's eyes gathered on the Juxian Pavilion again, tomorrow is the time for the assessment, in order not to have an accident, Yuan Xi called Lu Yu, the county of Jixian County, over.

"Tomorrow may be very lively, the people may be curious, if someone sneaks in, if they are caught, they don't have to deal with it strictly, a little punishment is enough, it is a great joy, don't make people panic," Yuan Xi reminded.

"Don't worry, Master Hou, Yu has already instructed the guards and soldiers," Lu Yu replied.

"That's good" Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Being a county prince, do you feel wronged?"

"No, Yu knows that this is Lord Hou's fancy to me" Lu Yu hurriedly shook his head and said, how can Jixian County be compared with other places, it must be someone that Yuan Xi absolutely believes in.

"Haha, you can think like this, I am very relieved, you have a calm personality, fair, and atmospheric, the only thing you lack is a little experience, you have to use more snacks, especially the school area, Xi has a plan in his heart, but there is no such condition yet, when the time is ripe, you will be in charge, independent of the Secret Pavilion, the Government Affairs Hall, and the Military Division, you have to be mentally prepared" Yuan Xi was a little more serious.

"Hou Ye Xie values it, Yu will definitely live up to expectations" A trace of excitement flashed on Lu Yu's face, controlling one alone is really what he is pursuing.

"Okay," Yuan Xi smiled and nodded.

On the second day, the sky is beautiful, the warmth is high, the assessment of the Juxian Pavilion officially began, the people of Jixian County have gone to the Juxian Pavilion, a sea of people, soldiers and yamen firmly guarded around, with a huge gong after the four rows of Shiwen martial arts personnel, orderly came to the square of Juxian Guan, one by one, head high, looking at the majesty above, the magnificent three halls, the eyes flashed a touch of excitement.

Among them, the scholars stand in the most central position, with a proud look on their faces, the scholars do not sit with the people, for the poor students, they have a natural pride in their hearts, even if they are smarter and more capable, it is the same, they participate in the assessment, but it is a face project, in fact, the family has long been in contact with the Thorn History Mansion, although it is somewhat unfair, but the scholar clan is indeed the foundation of Yuan Xi's current stable cause, although Yuan Xi cherishes the poor students, but also must distinguish the severity.

Xu Shu, who was standing in the row of students from the poor family, glanced at the scholar clan next to him, and did not look at the other students with a trace of hostility, but nodded appreciatively, more than fifty percent of the wealth of the world is in the hands of the scholar clan, without their support, it is difficult for any prince to succeed.

After waiting for a while, Liu Fang, the Gong of the Government Affairs Hall, led a group of people to a flat ground on the front steps, looked at the more than ninety reference personnel in front of him, as well as the people watching nearby, and said in a solemn voice: "Juxian Hall is the manifestation of Hou Ye's love for talent, you must not live up to this piece of benevolence, this assessment is absolutely fair, just, and the scholars are not additional, although your status is noble, but the arrangements of the Hou Ye must also be implemented, if there are scholars who are not subject to management, the Hou Ye is qualified, capable, and prestigious, Erase your status as a nobleman and reduce you to a commoner"

The more than a dozen men of the scholar clan who came to participate suddenly shrank their pupils, but their faces were not dissatisfied, only a little more cautious, if it was other princes, they might still be disdainful, but who is Yuan Xi, after the fourth and third dukes, the head of the Shi clan in the world, the son of the general Yuan Shao, his dignity is only under the Son of Heaven, far from being comparable to them.

"The results of this competition, in addition to the scholars, the top three of the other reference results will be directly transmitted to the counties of Youzhou, but everyone remember, if someone cheats and impersonates, once it is found, it will be severely punished."

"No!"

"Okay, now start to enter the palace, the scholars first, and then the three categories of civil and military craftsmen will enter the hall separately," Liu Fang announced loudly.

The people of the Central Scholar Clan immediately stepped towards the Wen Palace, and then the others followed closely.

"Shiyuan" Gan Ning shook his fist heavily and proudly walked towards the martial palace.

Xu Shu smiled, slowly stepped on the steps, and walked towards the top with a calm face, when he entered the Wen Palace, he saw two middle-aged men in official uniforms, standing on a high platform, although the momentum was different, but they all carried the majesty of holding authority.

"Meet the military advisor, don't drive" The scholar clan hurriedly shouted, and the other students from the cold sect were shocked, these two were the highest level of civil and military affairs in Youzhou, and hurriedly followed Shi Li.

Li Ru smiled gently, "No need to be polite, everyone take a seat, the assessment will start soon"

"No!"

Everyone began to look for their seats, of course the scholars were in the first row, Er Xu Shu found his seat in the center of the second row, and after seeing him sit down, Han Yan and Li Ru's eyes flashed, looking at each other's temperament and appearance, and nodded with satisfaction.

"The assessment time is a stick of incense, the exam questions have been placed on it, everyone is ready, you can start" Han Yan waved his hand lightly, and a soldier brought an incense burner.

Xu Shu slowly opened the bamboo slip in front of him, and only three words appeared on it.

"On the Ghost Army"

The topic seems to be very simple, but in fact, it contains infinite, which contains the current affairs, the political situation, and the understanding of all aspects of the army.

Xu Shu's gaze also condensed for a moment, but soon a sky-high arrogance emanated from his body, and he slowly picked up the pen next to him.

After Li Ru looked at it, his eyebrows raised, a trace of expectation flashed in his eyes, and after stretching out his hand slightly, he and Han Yan began to walk slowly among the scholars who were assessed, Li Ru gradually came to Xu Shu's side, and looked up curiously.

"Collect Wuhuan, seek the north, Junyao service, balance the calculation, and push the army"

The fifteen-character outline was imprinted into Li Ru's eyes, so that a trace of surprise flashed on his face, and his steps were a little immobile, Xu Shu seemed to have completely sunk into it at this time, and did not notice Li Ru beside him, when the long half-pillar incense passed, Xu Shu's whole person relaxed, a trace of satisfaction flashed on his face, and he gently put down the pen in his hand.

Li Ru, who had read it all, clenched his fists slightly, tried his best to suppress the excitement and appreciation on his face, and said very gently: "Have you finished writing?" ”

Xu Shu was startled, looked at Li Ru who came to the back, and hurriedly stood up and hugged his fists and said, "It's already written."

Li Ru personally put away Xu Shu's exam paper tightly, and said softly: "Since this is the case, go to the inner hall to rest and wait for the results."

"No!" Xu Shu gave a salute, and under the leadership of a soldier, he walked out calmly, and at this time, several scholars also finished writing.

Han Yan walked slowly to Li Ru's side and said in a low voice, "How is it?"

Li Ru quietly pulled Han Yan aside, and said very seriously: "Xu Shu, the world's most amazing talent, Liang wants to go to meet Hou Ye immediately and hand over this exam paper."

Han Yan was shocked, but he still nodded hurriedly, "I'll leave it to Yan here."
