Zu Ti said: "Dao Chief, to be honest, we don't want to send troops to Guanzhong all the time, but there is no such opportunity, this time is different, as long as you have the ability, anyone can go, the imperial court is the right move, we will sign up later." ”

"You two teenagers are promising, you will definitely win, no matter which one of you goes, it will be a blessing for the country and the refugees."

"The Taoist chief has praised it, the Taoist chief, the imperial court will definitely have heroes from all walks of life come to recruit if this happens, it doesn't matter if we can win or not, the key is that there are virtuous people who will enter the customs, this is important, we will sign up now, and then go to the East Palace to train the new army."

"The two are known as the Luoyang Shuangxia, they care about the country, I am very optimistic about you, if you need any help, please feel free to speak."

"Thank you Dao Chief, I didn't escort the grain and grass last time, if it wasn't for the four elders to help Zu Ti, I would definitely lose a big thing, this love Ancestor Ti remembered, if there is a request in the future, I will tell you, Dao Chief, we went."

"Okay, please."

When the two of them arrived at the recruitment office of the emperor's list, they saw a sign behind a table, with the word "recruitment" written on it, and the people who came to sign up were crowded with the scene.

As soon as the two of them entered the East Palace, the eunuch Xiao Chunzi was waiting at the palace gate, and when he saw the two of them, he said: "The two sect heads, the prince is discussing with Zhang Sikong, please follow our family to the study to meet." ”

After entering the study, the two of them worshiped the prince and saw Zhang Hua, and the prince said happily: "You two are here, great, I was looking for you." ”

Zu Ti said: "Now that the imperial court is recruiting, His Royal Highness can also sign up to compete." ”

Zhang Hua said disappointedly: "I recommended the prince in the court, but the queen was unwilling to let the prince go, so even if the prince signed up, no matter what the result was, the queen would not agree." ”

"I knew that the queen wouldn't dare, she was afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would have a prestige that would be bad for her!" Zu Ti said angrily.

"Your Highness, if you don't have the opportunity to go to Guanzhong, won't the elite teachers we have worked so hard to train be useless." Liu Kun said.

"That's why I asked Junko to bring you here."

"Your Highness means ......"

"The queen will never let me go to Guanzhong, so I pin all my hopes on you, and if any of you wins the competition, you can take these 3,000 people to Guanzhong."

"Your Highness, the two of us have already signed up, but the Great Jin is full of talents, and it may not be our victory."

"No, it must win! These 3,000 men and horses were trained by you, and you must take them with you! ”

"Your Highness, in fact, it really doesn't matter if we can win or not, the talents selected by the imperial court in this way must be expected by everyone, even if His Highness's three thousand warriors can keep up with him, it is a blessing." Zu Ti said.

"What Zu Ti said makes sense, but His Highness and I still hope that one of you wins." Zhang Hua said.

Zu Ti asked: "Master Zhang, you are the chief examiner, have the rules for the selection been decided?" ”

"The rules have been set, the first step is the martial arts competition, for the generals many times need to take the lead, so first to pass the martial arts, anyone as long as they sign up is eligible to go on stage, can win thirty people in a row is eligible to enter the next round of competition, the second step is to implement the knockout round among these people, until there are four people left, the third step is to eliminate two more out of the four, and the remaining two for the ultimate showdown." Zhang Hua said.

Liu Kun said excitedly: "It's really exciting, Master Zhang, what will the duel between these two people compare to in the end?" ”

"The duel between these two people will be more strict, divided into three rounds, not only to test martial arts, but also to fight soldiers, fighting formations, martial arts to win with kung fu, fighting soldiers is to see who has a more thorough understanding of the book of war, closer to actual combat, fighting formations is fighting formations, the two sides are free real soldiers to compete, to see whose formation is smart, that is to say, the duel between the two is absolutely not fancy, and the winner of three games and two wins is the final general candidate." Zhang Hua said.

"I'm eager to try it now, Lord Zhang, do you want to compete in a month." Zu Ti said excitedly.

"Yes, you guys just prepare actively, both of you participate, my greatest wish is for the two of you to have the ultimate showdown."

Zu Ti and Liu Kun both laughed, and the prince also laughed heartily.

When she returned home in the evening, Yunru was very happy when she heard that they were going to participate in the competition: "Two big brothers, you can finally go into battle to kill the enemy, great, your ambitions will be realized soon!" ”

"It's not time to be happy, we don't know." Zu Ti said.

Yunru asked: "Brother Zu, Brother Liu, Yunru has a request, I don't know if you will agree?" ”

"What request?" Zu Ti Dao.

"This time, no matter which of you can worship as a general, after going to Guanzhong to quell the rebellious army, can you ask the imperial court to lead troops directly to our Loulan, except for the demon concubine and the national teacher?" Yun Ru asked earnestly.

Zu Li looked at Liu Kun, Liu Kun nodded, Zu Qi said: "Yunru, Liu Kun and I swear here, no matter which of us can lead troops into Guanzhong, we will definitely lead troops to Loulan with you after the chaos is quelled, we will do what we say and never break our promise." ”

"Big brother...... You guys...... You're such good people......" Yunru said and cried.

"Yunru don't cry, we don't care if we cry again......"

Yunru stopped crying and laughed, happily busy, serving food to the two.

While eating, Zu Ti said: "Liu Kun, we have to compete in martial arts at the beginning, and then we have to compete in the final duel, although we have learned martial arts from the master, but we have not yet reached the best realm, if we can't pass the martial arts, we will not be sure of winning." ”

"Big brother, from tomorrow onwards, we will get up early to practice, which can be regarded as sharpening our guns.

"Yes, that's all there is to it now."

"Hmm."

Yunru gave a thumbs up to the two.

A rooster crow pierced the sky, and then the nearby chickens also crowed, and Zu Ti woke up and kicked Liu Kun with his feet: "Liu Kun, let's get up quickly, the chickens are all crowing, hurry up and ......!" ”

Liu Kun opened his eyes and got up excitedly: "Big brother, why is it so late, the chickens are all ......?"

But Liu Kun looked out the window and smiled: "Big brother, it's only midnight when you look at the sky, why is this rooster calling so early today, it's unlucky to ......"

Zu Ti said while getting dressed: "What is auspicious and unlucky, you are also so superstitious, if you want me to say that this is not unlucky at all, but God wants to urge us to practice, no matter what time it is, the rooster is about to get up, what did we say last night, Liu Kun, hurry up, let's go practice swords." ”

Liu Kun muttered reluctantly, while getting up at the urging of Zu Ti, the two of them came to the courtyard with their swords, and sure enough, it was still starry, it was really the middle of the night.

The two of them come and go, practicing swords in full swing, they don't know, there is a person on their roof watching them, they don't know, the so-called rooster crow, but people learn it, and then drive other roosters, in order to let them get up early to practice, this person is Jin Ziyan, she knew about the recruitment of talents in the imperial court, so she wanted to use this method to urge them to practice, seeing them get up, she smiled and nodded and disappeared into the night.

When it was dawn, Yunru saw this scene from the window and smiled with relief.

She stared at Zu Li's agile figure, fell into deep thought, and had a lot of things to say to him in her heart, how much she hoped that Zu Ti could get rid of the national teacher for him, and then become Loulan's concubine, although she had such a dream many times, and she also woke up with a smile in the dream, but this was so unattainable, she knew that there was a sweetheart in Zu Ti's heart, that is, Jin Ziyan, seeing that they talked and laughed every time they met, Yunru felt that it was simply delusional to be with Zu Ti, and she sighed heavily.

Yun Ru thought very right, Zu Ti really only had Jin Ziyan in his heart, since the moment he rescued her, Zu Ti deeply felt that she was the person she was looking for in this life, her own only, her own, every time she saw Jin Ziyan, his heart would beat hard, although Jin Ziyan couldn't see him blushing, but she could also clearly feel his heartbeat, the two had already belonged to each other, just that thin layer of window paper, a casual confession could gently pierce this delicate relationship, for these, Jin Muchen had long been aware, In his heart, she should have married Jin Zhanhong, and then passed the mantle to Jin Zhanhong, but now it seems that Jin Zhanhong has gone farther and farther away from Dilongmen.

In Guiyitang's Huida Qianzhuang, Liu Yao was laughing proudly: "Hahahaha, I finally waited for the opportunity, our great cause of the Huns will be completed early, Liu Yin, immediately fly the pigeon to pass the book to Liu Cong in Guanzhong, let him rush back to Luoyang!"
