When Ziqi heard that the will of the palace had arrived, he hurried to the front hall.

Zishou was waiting for the child, and when he saw him coming, he said happily: "Zizhi, my father has given my permission and ordered me to lead the army to the north!" ”

Ziqi was also eager to try, "Your Highness, since this is the case, you should prepare early and send troops as soon as possible!" ”

Zishou said: "There are only 8,000 adjustable soldiers in Gyeonggi, and I have asked Fei Lian to go to the outskirts of Beijing to recruit another 4,000 troops." For the post of Asian Guard, I have my own plans, preparing for the selection of martial arts competitions and selecting the best. I don't need any of the original Yawei, they are all noble children who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they are not easy to use. You are also prepared to prepare for the school competition in two days. ”

Zi Qi wanted to speak and stopped, and Zi was urged: "If you have something to say, what are you doing?" ”

Ziqi said bluntly: "Your Highness, I'm afraid that doing this will attract criticism from the government and the opposition!" ”

Zishou was stubborn and said, "Since I have the king's mandate, what do I do so much? Yawei can't take the lead, and soldiers can use their lives to serve death? How can you stick to small things when you become a big thing, it's decided, you can also go and prepare! ”

At this moment, Ziqi saw the domineering spirit of the king in Zishou. The king is the sky, the king's words are the will of heaven, a word is like the thunder shaking the mountains, the four seas are sacred and irreversible, this is the momentum that the king should have, what it should look like!

The child was relieved and responded happily.

In the eyes of Zi Shou, he read a trace of pleasure, which was a longing from the heart. The two of them knew each other and looked at each other and smiled.

The child came out of the antechamber and felt the need to prepare some utensils. But what made him feel a headache was this era, without pen, ink, paper, inkstone, even drawings could not be completed, science and technology are the primary productive forces, he couldn't help but think of this widely circulated famous saying in later generations.

He had an idea, but fortunately the Jungle King Saber in his arms was still there.

Ziqi went to the back dining room to find some wooden corrugated wood blocks and returned to the house, closed the doors and windows and closed the house, he eliminated left and right, and after half a day's effort, he made a flying claw out. He checked it carefully, and was satisfied with the size and details.

Carry the wooden piece in your arms, and you have to ask the merchant for help. After making up his mind, Ziqi jumped up from the ground and hurried to the front street.

Coming to the door of Shangrong Courtyard, Ziqi asked loudly to the courtyard, "Is Lord Shangrong here?" A visit to the sub-period! He shouted twice, and the courtyard was quiet. After waiting for a while, there was still no movement at all.

Ziqi was just about to turn around and go back, when the courtyard door opened, and an old servant stuck out his head, "Your Excellency stays, Miss please talk in the room!" ”

The old servant brought the child into the main hall and withdrew.

Shang Qingjun was kneeling down in the hall and busy, with a calculation chip and a tortoise shell in front of her, and she was holding an iron awl in her hand to carve on the tortoise shell. Seeing Zi Qi coming in, Shang Qingjun wanted to get up and salute. Ziqi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Sister Qingjun doesn't have to be polite, what are you busy with?" ”

Shang Qingjun sneered, "You have a pretty sweet mouth!" It's not for His Highness's Northern Expedition, my father asked me to help him calculate the money and food for the carriages, horses, and horses used! ”

Ziqi didn't feel a headache when he saw the pictograms engraved on the oracle bones, and suddenly had an idea, "I'll teach you a simple method." After speaking, he sat down next to Shang Qingjun, took the iron cone from her hand, and Qingjun turned sideways to the side.

In the sub-period, ten Arabic symbols from 0 to 9 were neatly engraved on the oracle bones, and the method of calculation was taught to Qingjun. Shang Qingjun was really smart, and he learned it in a moment. He happily said, "It's so much easier and more convenient!" "I'm smiling and blushing with excitement.

He suddenly looked at Ziqi with confused eyes and asked, "Why do you have so many strange things in your head!" Who taught you? ”

I thought to myself, I can't teach you geometric functions anymore.

Seeing her obsessive look, Ziqi smiled and said, "My master is a master in the world, don't tell others, my master is angry." ”

Shang Qingjun nodded with a serious expression, "Just say it, I will never tell others." ”

Ziqi stiffened his face, didn't let himself laugh, and said mysteriously: "Back then, I was hunting in Jingshan, and there were a lot of prey, and I wanted to share them with everyone, but I couldn't write or count." I was so anxious that I cried, crying so much that I was shocked by the grandfather of Jingshan Mountain God. ”

Shang Qingjun pursed his lips, "You liar!" ”

Ziqi continued to mess around, and said seriously: "What am I lying to you for? The mountain god grandfather saw that I was crying pitifully, so he asked me what I was for? I'll tell him the truth.

Grandpa Mountain God said, don't cry, I can't sleep from crying. Well, I'll teach you how to count, and you can't pass it on to anyone after you've learned it.

I asked him, is it okay for his parents? He said his parents couldn't either. I asked my brother again, is it okay? He said that his brother couldn't do it, and I finally asked, is that okay with my wife? Grandpa Mountain God thought about it and said that only his wife can! ”

Shang Qingjun took a sip, "You are talking nonsense!" ”

The child period has regained the feeling of playing tricks on girls when he was in college, and he is very proud and happy!

Shang Qingjun waited for a glance at him, "I won't pay attention to you in the future!" After speaking, he turned his body, took the oracle bone and pondered carefully, ignoring the child period.

Ziqi couldn't stand this the most, and said: "You're so stingy, you can't even say a joke." Otherwise, I'll teach you another mountain god grandmother to teach me how to write, which is much more convenient than your tortoiseshell carving. What do you think? ”

Shang Qingjun knew that he was talking nonsense, but he couldn't resist the temptation of novelties, so he had to say, "Then you tell me about it!" ”

Ziqi scratched his head and was a little embarrassed, "It's too late now, when you come back from the expedition, I will teach you how to make bamboo brushes, and you will be happy." ”

Shang Qingjun thought that Ziqi was playing tricks on her again, and this time he was really angry.

The two were talking, and Shang Rong returned. When I entered the door, I saw the sub-period hurriedly greeted, "When is the sub-period coming?" What are you talking about? ”

Shang Qingjun said angrily: "Father, the son is bullying me!" ”

Ziqi was startled and hurriedly got up to salute. I shouted in my heart: "Grandma, it's good for you to make it clear, it's not fun to let you misunderstand." ”

Shang Rong didn't take it to heart at all, and said with a smile: "Don't be polite, you came to me for something?" ”

Ziqi hurriedly took out the wooden piece from his bosom and handed it to Shang Rong and said, "My lord, this is a small thing I do, and I am tired of instructing the workshop to build thirty handfuls for me according to this look." ”

"What is this? What is it used for? Shang Rong asked as he flipped through the wooden pieces in his hand.

Seeing Shang Rong sitting down, Ziqi leaned over and said, "This is called flying claws, and it can be used to climb cliffs, cliffs, wooden villages, and glaciers!" Saying that, Shang Qingjun was also full of interest, staring at the dark eyes and listening attentively.

Shang Rong looked puzzled, "This thing has never been seen before, where did you learn it?" ”

The child was just about to blurt out, "Grandma Mountain God taught." He hurriedly changed his words and said, "We hunt in the Orion Mountains, and we make it in the shape of our hands for ease of movement. ”

Shang Qingjun pursed his mouth, "Father, he's lying again!" ”

Ziqi ignored her, and suddenly said to Shang Rong seriously: "My lord, this matter is related to the survival of the military aircraft, and please keep it secret!" ”

Shang Rong stood up and said, "Don't worry, I'll arrange it!" ”

Seeing Shang Rong leave in a hurry, Ziqi suddenly touched his nose and said to himself: "Oh my God, there are more cultural relics in the future!" ”

"What are you talking about?" Shang Qingjun asked puzzled.

Ziqi smiled disguisedly, "I didn't say anything, I want to say, Miss Qingjun, I'm leaving!" ”

Shang Qingjun twisted his body and ignored him.

Ziqi said cheekily: "Am I really leaving?" ”

Seeing that Shang Qingjun hadn't spoken yet, he had no choice but to leave stupidly. Shang Qingjun turned around and just wanted to stop him, but closed his mouth again. whispered in his mouth: "Flim Tongue has a treacherous face, I hate it to death!" ”

After speaking, he held the tortoiseshell and was distracted.

Two days later, Zishou personally went to the school to preside over the competition and select officers for the Northern Expedition.

The school field was surrounded by the common people of Chaoge, not only men flocked to it, but even women came a lot, and the style of merchants worshipping martial arts can be seen. As soon as Ziqi and Evil came into the school with Hebu, they heard someone shouting.

Ziqi looked back and saw that it was Fei Xian and Nu Jiang, two girls. When the two of them saw that they were looking back, they laughed happily. Yin Shang Dynasty, more than 600 years before and after. There are no cumbersome religious constraints on women, and if they are not slaves, marriage is also very autonomous, and it is much more relaxed and free than later generations. So girls live very freely and happily!

Walking to the front of the Guanwu platform, Ziqi unexpectedly found that Shang Qingjun was also here, accompanied by the old servant standing on the right side of the stage. Ziqi smiled at him, and Shang Qingjun deliberately twisted his head to the side.

Yihu came down from the stage and said to them with a smile: "Your Highness, please two of you on the stage to watch the martial arts!" ”

Ziqi and Evil Lai followed him to the viewing platform, Zishou was wearing a cyan cloak, sitting in the center with a heroic posture, and Fei Lian stood with his hands hanging down at his side. Seeing that the child period and evil came up, he smiled at them.

Zishou called them to his side and announced the start of the contest.

There were hundreds of applicants, one is because the merchants worship martial arts, and the army at that time had no regular army except for the garrison expeditionary force, all of which were wartime for the army and peacetime for the people, similar to the militia in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation; Second, because the conditions for the children were relaxed, not only the children of nobles and commoners could participate, but even slaves could also compete.

Nearly half of the applicants were slaves.

The competition is divided into two groups: mounted archery and gladiatorial fighting. If the rake shot cannot be distinguished, the two sides will pull out the arrows and shoot at each other, and the arrows in the body will be negative. As for gladiatorial battles, the competition is much simpler, and the winner is rarely distinguished. Riding archery and gladiatorial fighting can be shortlisted if you win three games in a row, and nine wins in a row is the best result, and there is no point in competing.

There were more than a dozen people on the gladiatorial side, but none of them won more than three games in a row. Although Zishou loved gladiatorial fighting, he also lost interest all of a sudden, and turned his head to the side of the cavalry.

The first to go down was Hebu, and the first four opponents were all beaten by him in the rake. Zishou said to Ziqi with a smile: "This kid's riding and archery skills are good!" "The child period is also happy for Hebu.

The opponents in the fifth and sixth games were very strong, and He Bu was able to win in the confrontation. He Bu won eight games in a row, and one more game was a complete victory, and Ziqi and Evil came to sweat for him. At the critical moment, a man named Jiao Mustache came up.

This man is a burly man, with a calm demeanor and a dull face, and he is a moody fellow. The two of them were nine arrows and nine bullseyes in the rake shooting, and the two of them got on the horse and shot at each other, and as soon as they moved the hand, they fell behind. The rubber mantle shot accurately and ruthlessly, if the arrow was not pulled out, He Bu would have lost his life. Even so, he was also shot very badly. In the end, Jiao was hit by two arrows, and He Bu was shot with more than 20 arrows.

He Bu arched his hand to the rubber mustache and left the scene dejectedly, and the tears of the woman Jiang were about to fall outside the field.

Jiao Fei's face was blank, and he also arched his hand to He Bu.

Next, Jiao Fei broke through all the way, winning 27 games in a row. The people who participated outside the arena scolded endlessly, and Ziqi frowned slightly, and the glue was too much. Nine wins in a row is already the best result, and if you continue to win in a row, you will obviously deprive everyone of the opportunity.

Zi Ji weighed it in his heart, even if Li Jiao is here, he may have a chance to win, but it is difficult to say that he is the best of the best, this Jiao Jiao's riding and archery kung fu is really powerful.

Zishou was originally a person who loved talents, and he was overjoyed to see that Jiao Ji had won 27 games in a row. Xiang left and right asked, "What is the origin of this person?" ”

Fei Lian leaned over and said, "His Royal Highness the eldest prince, Wei Ziqi's henchman, is called Jiao Qi!" Zishou nodded, "Sure enough, it's a talent!" ”

Wu Hai actually played on the gladiatorial side, and won two games in a row. Zishou frowned, and said in disgust: "Go and beat him down!" Evil came to answer and was just about to play, but the quilt was stopped, "Let the child period pass first!" ”

The child understands that this is a deliberate partiality on the part of the child.

The child period deliberately sells off, and does not take the wooden ladder. With his feet on the table, his body rose leisurely, twisted his waist in the air, did a beautiful somersault, and stood firmly in front of Wu Hai. Where have I ever seen such a skill on the field, Zishou and Fei Lian were both stunned. The surrounding people applauded thunderously, Fei Xian jumped to his feet with joy, and the woman applauded vigorously. Even Shang Qingjun, who has a very restrained personality, slapped his palms twice.

Wu Hai was also very stunned when he saw the beautiful debut of the child. But gritted his teeth, and while he was not ready, he rubbed his body and pounced. Ziqi smiled slightly, took half a step back with his left foot, turned his body halfway, and turned backwards to let Wu Hai pounce. His right hand grabbed his right wrist, took advantage of the momentum and twisted it hard, and the toe of his right foot hooked Wu Hai's ankle, Wu Hai's body rolled over in the air for a week, fell heavily to the ground and couldn't get up again, and was KO in less than a round.

There was thunderous applause on the field, and Wu Hai hated it so much that he got up and walked away. He won eight more games in a row on the court, making up nine games. Every game was won cleanly, and Ziqi smiled slightly and turned back to the stage.

The surrounding people applauded continuously, praising his character, which was much inferior in comparison.

Playing in the sub-period, evil comes to the end, he has infinite strength, and he doesn't need any skills and moves, as long as the opponent is close, he will be caught directly and thrown out of the field, causing the audience to laugh for a while. After winning nine games, he also learned the appearance of the sub-period, and took the initiative to leave the competition field and return to the stage, and people also praised the evil approach.

Zishou said to Fei Lian with great interest: "Let him be a tiger Benduya."

After the end of the competition, it was already sunset, and Zishou appointed Zi Qi on the spot as Xiao Cavalry Duya (commander of the horse army brigade), Jiao Wei as Duo Shot Duya (commander of the infantry bow brigade), Evil Lai as Hu Ben Duya (chief officer of the Changge Brigade), He Bu as Duo Bai Shot (officer of the infantry bow battalion of 1,000 people), and the other selected people also received positions.

Because of the suppression of the rubber mustache, he won 27 games in a row, and only two people were selected to participate in the riding and archery competition, and the loser was behind the back, and the eighteenth generation of the rubber beard ancestors were scolded thousands of times.
