As the chief examiner of Enke this time, Xiao Ming held the test paper and asked Yang Su to determine the ranking, which was actually Yang Su's selection of the top three.

In addition to the top three, the first-class jinshi are basically the same, either staying in the Beijing official, or delegating to the local area and becoming a county magistrate.

Yang Su casually flipped through a few test papers and said: "Every time the palace exam is hand-picked by me, it is really a little boring, this time Enkezhen decided to change the method and announce the audience of these ten people!" ”

Xiao Ming has never been able to grasp Yang Su's thoughts, let alone make smart guesses, Xiao Ming's smartest point is that he is not as smart as Wen Tiren, no matter what the emperor says, he never distinguishes it, he is willing to do it!

When the chamberlain came back, he brought the top ten tributes to the palace to meet him, and told Yang Su whether to announce their entry into the palace.

"Let's go out and go to the square!" Yang Su suddenly got up and took Wang Chengen out of the hall.

Xiao Ming hurriedly followed and followed Yang Su out of the hall.

Seeing that the emperor suddenly appeared, the ten tributes knelt in the square under the golden platform outside the hall and bowed to Yang Su.

"Let's get flat!" Yang Su stood on the golden platform and said to them: "The state affairs are difficult, and I have started martial arts since the fifth year of Chongzhen, intending to choose brave warriors to serve me. However, my Ming national policy is to govern the military with literature, and there are Sun Chengzong, Lu Xiangsheng, and Hong Chengchou in the front, which can be said to be a general. If it is undecided today, there are many events in Liaodong Dynasty, and it is the time to employ people.

As my Ming Gongsheng, you are an example for the world's scholars, how can you not worry about me! I want to add the book of soldiers and two horses from next year's township test, and the articles are doing very well, regardless of the equal, it is not fair for me to choose anyone, and the top three are better than taking them by you! ”

As soon as Yang Su's words came out, everyone present was shocked.

Can the top three still take themselves? Could it be that the emperor still wants to test them for military affairs now? This made several tribute students who were originally bottomless suddenly have an ambition in their hearts.

However, Xu Shilin, who was originally stable in the top prize, felt the overwhelming malice, and was angry in his heart, how could such a change occur when this matter came to an end.

"The fame is taken immediately, and someone will lead the horse to get the armor and the wooden weapon!" Yang Su shouted to the attendant next to him.

Get it now! Don't say it's the Gongsheng below, even Xiao Ming's face can't help but twitch. He really underestimated the emperor, with the emperor's temperament, how could he not make a little noise about such a big matter as the imperial examination, this is really insulting, and he actually wants to let the tributes fight in a competition to determine the ownership of the top three.

"As the so-called impermanence of soldiers and water is not normal, the rules of this competition are no rules, no matter what method you use, no matter what means you use, whoever wins in the end will be the champion, and so on, give you a stick of incense time, and then start the competition!" Yang Su squinted his eyes and said coldly.

As soon as Yang Su's voice fell, the ten tribute students present were not fools, and they instantly understood the meaning of Yang Su's words, and began to pull the relationship together.

"Dare to ask, where are you from, brother?" Yougongsheng began to listen to the accent pull relationship.

"Hey, it just so happens that I'm also from Tongcheng, let's go together, let's kill them first, and then we'll assign the rankings, and the meat will rot in the pot!"

also had a flexible brain looking at his short arms and short legs, and knew in his heart that it was absolutely hopeless to rely on himself, so he began to hug his thighs: "I see that Brother Tai is powerful and powerful, with a heroic temperament, not like a mortal, Brother Tai has not practiced martial arts?" ”

"Exactly, now that the state affairs are difficult, the eldest husband should carry a three-foot sword and make immortal achievements!"

"Brother Tai is really a god and a man, he is both civil and military, I see that Brother Tai has lofty ambitions, if Brother Tai intends to be the champion, I am willing to help!"

After a while, the ten tribute students present were divided into three groups of three people each, and only Xu Shilin was alone, standing in the middle of the field with a blank face.

As the so-called gun shoots the first bird, this famous Xu Shilin, who has even won two yuan, has always been arrogant, disdainful of being in the company of ordinary scholars, and befriending high-ranking officials and nobles.

Yang Su was not surprised at all when he saw this, but just nodded slightly to Wang Chengen.

Wang Chengen then said loudly: "Please choose your weapons and armor, and those who fall off their horses or are hit by the vital point will be judged to lose!" Although it is a wooden weapon, and you are wearing armor, but the sword and gun have no eyes, and you are not allowed to deliberately hit the eyes and other vital points, if the contestant shouts the word "admit defeat" in his mouth, he is not allowed to attack again, and the offender should be directly judged to admit defeat. ”

After everyone had chosen their weapons and put on their armor and mounted their horses with the help of the captain of the Jinyi Guard, Wang Chengen ordered: "Beat the drums, the competition begins!" ”

Xu Shilin can win two yuan in two, if it weren't for Yang Su, the emperor who has never played cards with common sense, he would not be able to win the grand slam and become a rare person in history who has won three yuan in a row. Naturally, I am not stupid, where I still don't understand my own situation.

He has endured hardships for more than 20 years, and it is not easy to get to this point, seeing that he is only close to the champion to touch, and how can he be willing to give up, hearing the sound of the drums, Wang Chengen ordered the competition to begin, and took the lead in riding a horse to the side of the school field, and shouted to everyone with a fist: "You are now divided into three groups, and naturally there will be a group to win the top three, so your biggest enemy is next to you, not in my Xu Shilin, if you shoot at me, you are taken by others, isn't it because of a small loss, this is not a wise man's doing, I only hope to get fourth, and now I drop my weapon to show my sincerity, and I hope you will think twice! ”

With that, Xu Shilin threw away the spear in his hand.

As soon as Xu Shilin's words came out, the three groups that were originally ready to kill Xu Shilin first for a while were not easy to start, and they left messages about the movements of the two groups around them, for fear that they would make a sneak attack.

The situation on the field became weird, but Xu Shilin, who was originally in a dead place, was sitting on the horse at this moment, looking at the opposite side with a touch of disdain in his eyes, without a spear, he still had a wooden sword at his waist.

"Humph! He's a bit clever! Yang Su stood with his hands in his hands, looked down at everyone, and snorted coldly.

Xiao Ming's heart trembled, he was originally very pleased with Xu Shilin's talent and filial piety, but at this moment, seeing that he was so eager and wise, he actually came up with such a method to break the game, and even looked down on him, Xiao Ming was the chief examiner of Enke this time, and Xu Shilin would be his protégé in the future, and he would naturally be Xiao Ming's party. Originally, Xiao Ming was ready to give Xu Shilin a heavy responsibility in his heart, but looking at the emperor's attitude, it seemed that something was not right.

Although he has not been with the emperor for a long time, he has never seen Yang Su behave like this towards people. Even for the previous Wu Zongda, Wen Zhenmeng and others, they have never behaved like this, the emperor as the son of heaven pays attention to prestige, and he has always been implicit but not revealed, and the two will be solved in an instant.

Xiao Ming's mind turned a thousand times, and he thought a lot for a while......
