Although the martial arts examination has been there since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there has been no movement intermittently, and in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, it has gradually formed the norm of the three-year examination, but there is still not much attention.

In contrast, the liberal arts exam is attracting worldwide attention, everyone wants to be able to take the literary champion, a talent can raise eyebrows in their hometown, many people are seventy or eighty, and they are still working tirelessly to rely on fame.

However, Wuju was once unpopular, even if it became the norm later, most of them were mixed with the children of the sect, and few scholars from the poor family were able to get ahead through martial arts.

In addition, the military generals did not pay much attention to the Ming Dynasty, and the people who held the bull's ears in the court were also cabinet ministers and assistants, factory guards were rampant, and eunuchs stole power, where is there still the status of military generals.

But now it's different, the emperor has made a big effort to prepare for the Japanese, and the martial arts examination has become a hot event.

This day is also an auspicious day of the zodiac, the great uncle of the Ministry of Rites personally presided over it, and Mo Hengluan, the governor of Nanzhili, and others were all present, and there was a ceremony to open the tribute courtyard of Weisu, announcing that the five-day Wuju Mansion test officially kicked off!

Because he participated in the martial arts performance of the King of Chu in Wuchang, and many places in the martial arts examination of Nanzhili referred to the content of the martial arts of the King of Chu, and Li Mi was one of the planners, this martial arts examination was relatively boring for Li Mi.

After returning from Wuchang, thanks to the war horse provided by Mo Hengluan, Li Mi also made up for the shortcomings of riding and shooting, and this exam was even more dull.

What made Li Mi feel laughing and crying was that he thought that the written test was the most difficult, after all, most martial artists had no culture, and strategy should be the most difficult subject.

Who knew that after the exam, the strategy turned out to be the easiest!

In Li Mi's understanding, the policy should be the same as the liberal arts examination, which is the most important part of testing the knowledge of students, and the candidates' own opinions and strategies on state and military affairs should be the most important part of testing their comprehensive quality.

However, when he got the test paper, Li Mi was dumbfounded, because the question turned out to be written silently and filled in the blanks, relying on the military books left by Qi Jiguang and the military books such as the General Scripture of Armaments!

This is also Li Mi's preconceived idea, too nervous, you must know that martial artists usually do not have a high level of education, it is good to be able to read and write, let them memorize these martial arts scriptures and military books, it is already torture enough, where can you write any strategy.

If there is such kung fu, who will take the martial arts test, it is better to take the test of a serious Wen Jinshi!

However, it was precisely after seeing this test paper that Li Mi was even more grateful to Zhao Guangling.

Because Li Mi didn't know this rule, but Zhao Guangling couldn't have known it, but even so, Zhao Guangling still accompanied Li Mi, constantly studying the art of war and martial arts day and night, and even wrote a lot of strategies, pointing out mountains and rivers with Li Mi, the geography of mountains and rivers everywhere, etc., and even found out the geography and other books in the library pavilion, and ate a thorough meal with Li Mi.

Although he won't get the exam, it is a huge wealth, and this is exactly what Li Mi is grateful to Zhao Guangling.

At this level of exam, Li Mi felt relaxed, not to mention Zhao Guangling, so there was not much to brilliant.

The martial arts exam is not like the king of Chu's martial arts, where confrontation competitions are set up, and everyone accepts the exam, and there is no fierce competition on the surface, so it is difficult to arouse interest.

If it is said that it is a little difficult, that is, the naval trial training held in Huang Tiandang, although I have seen it in the Chu Palace, Li Mi is still a little stretched in the end.

Five days passed like this, and there was not much to talk about, which made Li Mi a little disappointed.

After all, for this martial arts test, he has been preparing since years ago, and he has been planning for so long, but he didn't expect it to be such a result.

However, others are different, especially many innocent folk knights, who are even more excited, including Zhang Huangting!

Zhang Huangting came from the Zhang family in Hangzhou, which was a famous anti-Japanese family, but he was too close to the green forest grass to get the recruitment and co-optation of the imperial court.

Speaking of which, thanks to Li Mi taking the lead, otherwise Zhang Huangting would not have been qualified for the exam at all.

I have said many times earlier that Zhang Huangting is not good at saying that he is a man, nor is he a woman, his body structure is extremely special, he is a man, and he is not wrong to say that he is a woman, so it is a bit risky to participate in the martial arts exam.

However, for the sake of the family's interests, Zhang Huangting still let go of all his shyness and concerns, and he was still nervous after the exam, and he couldn't relieve it for three or two days.

As for Wang Hongzhi, Zhang Sunsheng and others, whether they helped Li Mi through the backdoor relationship will not be known until the public list.

The reason why Li Mi has the confidence to bet with Zhao Guangling is actually for this reason.

He couldn't pass the test for Zhao Guangling, but before he took the test, a large number of people had promised to help Li Mi seek a position as a martial artist.

After Li Mi entered the officialdom, he finally knew how difficult it was for a civil official like Wang Hongzhi to get involved in the martial arts examination.

However, Li Mi would not let him be so easy, so he took advantage of the events of the past few days to bring Wang Hongzhi and Zhang Sunsheng in.

Now they don't have any excuses, it just depends on how much help they can provide to Li Mi.

Compared with Zhang Huangting, Zhao Guangling should have been more relaxed, but after the exam, Li Mi went to visit Zhao Guangling, and this product was even more nervous than Zhang Huangting!

At this time, Li Mi finally knew that Zhao Guangling's exam carried not only the future of the Zhao family, but also other famous families!

In this way, among the three, Li Mi is the most relaxed, after passing the martial arts exam, Zhao Guangling and Zhang Huangting just forced a smile, where can they relax, Li Mi asked them out to play and had no thoughts.

In this period, Ai Ai Ai lasted for three days, and finally came to the day of the list, which was not yet dawn, and a cannon rang out in the direction of the Gongyuan, and the street suddenly became lively.

The front of the Gongyuan was already crowded with waiting martial artists, stretched their necks, and waited for the list, but Li Mi and the others simply didn't even go to the Gongyuan to see the list, and the three of them shrank at home and waited.

There were faint cheers on the street, and there were many people who finished reading the list and left alone lonely, some of the disciples of the generals were not discouraged when they fell off the list, they didn't take it seriously at all, and went to the tavern with friends who knew each other to have a relaxing pastime, and some of the disciples did not take the exam to heart.

The reason why they participated in martial arts was just to connect with their feelings and make friends, and after the exam, they went to have fun together, but as for whether they could be on the list, they didn't care too much.

The three of Li Mi participated in the martial arts examination, and the people in the Liwen Institute also knew about it, not only that, but also the people in the Governor's Yamen and the Governor's Mansion.

However, they didn't have much hope for the three of them.

Although Zhao Guangling was born in a famous family and has a noble status, he is not a general, their family has never touched the military for three hundred years, although he has a good family education since he was a child, but he is not an insider, where does he have any confidence in the exam?

As for Zhang Huangting, he looks like a girl, although he also has real kung fu, but he can walk the rivers and lakes, but he doesn't have that kind of bearing.

Besides, the Zhang family in Hangzhou was originally a wild road, and it was not uncommon for the imperial court to accept them, so it was really strange that such a bandit came to participate in the martial arts, and it was really strange that he could be admitted!

As for Li Mi, he has a hand in solving cases, and he is also comfortable in dealing with various situations, and he carries a Qi family knife all day long, which is enough to bluff people, but he is busy with various official affairs all day long, and he needs to handle trivial things in the yamen.

The number of references in the entire Nanzhili is about thousands, and it is only full in five days, and it is barely enough to take the exam, and ninety-one people are selected from it, which is the same as the liberal arts exam, and the head is Xie Yuan.

After the list was released, the team beat gongs and drums and walked on the streets, and went to the place where the martial artists settled to report the good news, and the whole Gusu City became lively again.

This is another grand carnival after the manifestation of the real dragon, although it has nothing to do with itself, but the people of Gusu have carried forward the tradition of watching the excitement as always, and the whole city is in an uproar.

The good news is all assigned to the tribute court by the yamen at all levels for dispatch, and unlike the maintenance examination, the good news is a fat difference, and those who are promoted must be rewarded.

The gongs and drums were beating outside, and it was so lively that it was not good, and the servants of the yamen of the Liwen Institute were also dispatched to help, and the entire yamen of the Liwen Institute was deserted.

Zhao Guangling and Zhang Huangting were both nervous, and they didn't dare to look at the list, and their hearts were tugging.

What's ridiculous is that Zhao Guangling was like a dragon before the exam, and he was like a dog after the exam, which made Li Mi mock all day long, but he didn't dare to contradict a word.

Not to mention Zhang Huangting, Zhang Jian spent a lot of effort, got rid of Li Mi, and went through a lot of relationships before he successfully applied for the exam.

Although Li Mi and Zhao Guangling practiced Wenshu, and Zhang Huangting was also accompanying him, he had no confidence in his heart, and now he was even more up.

The three of them stared at each other, and they wanted to stand up as soon as there was any movement outside, but the team that reported the good news only passed by every time and did not come in.

According to the rules, the good news is also carried out in turn from high to low, and it is almost evening, and there is no good news team coming in, and the three of them will inevitably be disappointed.

This first name is not expected, and the general lifting identity has not been able to be examined, which is not normal!

Although Li Mi has been the most calm in the past two days, after all, he is more open, and the martial arts people are just gold-plated to him, but now he can't help it first!

Because Wang Hongzhi and those old guys swore that they would go through the back door for him, but they didn't get lifted, so they have to ask for an explanation!

These two old men have received a lot of benefits from Li Mi, and Li Mi doesn't expect them to return anything, but they haven't been able to fulfill what they promised, which is too much!

Just as Li Mi was about to go out to ask for an explanation, he happened to meet the team that came to report the good news!

The three of them were also surprised, but when they stepped forward, they saw that it was the official of the Liwen Institute, and they couldn't wait to beat these people on the spot.

Just as he was about to do it, those officials smiled and came to beg for rewards, and they really came to report the good news!

However, I heard that they were going back to the yamen and came by the way to report the good news, and the ranking can be imagined.

When asked like this, Zhang Huangting actually took the exam eighty-nine, which is average, and he is the third from the bottom, Li Mi got ninety, not bad, the second from the bottom, as for Zhao Guangling, he doesn't follow it, he is the first from the bottom!

Although he was admitted, but this result was also dumbfounded, Li Mi didn't care, he didn't want to come out, he could mix the identity of a martial artist, and he also won Zhao Guangling, but he had to be happy.

As for Zhang Huangting, the head of the family was originally to mix up a serious reputation and wash the whole family, but now Zhang Huangting is the third from the bottom, but in the end, he should be happy!

Moreover, Li Mi and Zhao Guangling practiced together, and they snubbed Zhang Huangting many times, he just studied silently on the sidelines, but now his grades are better than the two of them, and his teeth should be laughed off.

The blackest face among the three is naturally Zhao Guangling!

What the hell is the penultimate one, you Zhao Dagongzi is a man who has to work hard for the re-emergence of the wealthy clan in Jiangdong!
