Chapter 59: The first round of riding and shooting live targets

"So Nangong Feng is not only a person in His Majesty's lineage, but also a representative figure of the world's scholars, and today's Academy of Literature is almost the leader in the entire Taixue, so behind Nangong Feng, there is also the support of Taihuasi."

Wang Shiya seemed to know the details of martial arts very well, and when she talked eloquently, Lin Ling, who listened directly, was secretly speechless.

However, although Wang Shiya deliberately skipped Wang Xuanling and Wang Yan, this does not mean that Lin Ling has doubts in her heart, and if Lin Ling wants to take the military journey in the future, it will inevitably be necessary to know yourself and your opponent.

Thinking of this, Lin Ling pondered for a moment and then asked tentatively, "That... What about General Wang and the Grand Governor? ”

Looking at Lin Ling's curiosity, Wang Shiya knew that it was impossible to fool him, so she saw him sigh lightly and said, "Alas, my brother is not qualified to be the judge this time. ”

"It's just that His Majesty transferred all the elites of the Northwest Army to Kyoto, and the Northwest Defense Line was once full of loopholes because of the loneliness of the major generals, and in every helplessness, my brother had to intercede with King Xin'an."

"With the help of throwing himself directly to His Majesty, instead of going through the procedures of the Ministry of War, because there was King Xin'an and his father behind him, His Majesty revoked the title of the sixth judge and replaced it with a brother."

"Although my brother is the governor of the northwest, he is still young and cannot convince the public, if it is not for the general of Zhennan and his father who are classmates and friends among the other four, I am afraid that it is just a twist and turn of Ning Min, and if my brother wants to become this adjudicator, he will have to have some more twists and turns."

After listening to Wang Shiya's exclamation, Lin Ling was unexpectedly silent, but what Lin Ling was thinking about was indeed different from Wang Shiya, Wang Shiya was worried about her brother's future, but Lin Ling was thinking about another possibility.

"Shiya, the person who was dismissed by His Majesty, but the minions of the East Palace?"

Suddenly hearing Lin Ling ask, Wang Shiya was stunned for a moment, and then said with some shock: "How did Lin Lang know?" The slave didn't say much! ”

Hearing Wang Shiya's confirmation, Lin Ling immediately replied with a sneer: "Hmph... Sure enough, everyone in the world knows that Naqi Anhou is a rat, originally he was only a protΓ©gΓ© of the fourth prince, but it can be seen that after the fourth prince was left out in the cold, he turned around and threw himself under the fifth prince. ”

"Then the second prince was suddenly made the crown prince by His Majesty, and this person shamelessly turned to the crown prince Lin Huang on the day of his serious illness, such a capricious person should be ashamed of the world!"

"And only when His Majesty dismisses the generals of the East Palace, will our Marquis of Qi Anhou wag his tail so much and beg to curry favor with the prince, and then unceremoniously participate in the Grand Governor."

Lin Ling's analysis, Wang Shiya, who listened to it at the time, was like an initiation, she was still worried about whether her brother's career would be affected, but at this moment, it seems that there is no danger.

However, Wang Shiya was happy, but Caihe on the side was slightly moved, although Lin Ling noticed it, but because she didn't know what she was worried about, she didn't ask much, she just thought that Caihe was frightened by her bold words.

Although the Great New Dynasty has clear regulations that it is not forbidden to speak and think among scholars, people are always selfish, if this word is heard by the wall and reaches Ning Min's ears, then for Lin Ling, it is definitely a fatal crisis.

"That's it, don't think about it, the martial arts are about to begin."

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Shiya's words fell, I only heard a loud voice on Jinmingtai shouting, only to see dozens of soldiers wearing armor appear, one carrying a wooden target, and quickly ran towards the side of Jinmingtai closest to the pond.

Speaking of which, I have to talk about this Jin Ming Terrace, as the name suggests, Jin Ming Terrace is a platform supported on the pond water, usually when there is no martial arts, this platform is mostly used for Emperor Qingli to review the dragon warriors familiar with the battle array.

And this Jinmingtai covers a very huge area, although it is a rectangular field, there are five hundred meters away horizontally, and there is a wide area of one or two hundred meters longitudinally, although it is short, and this is also the reason why Wuju chose Jinmingchi as the venue.

"That's... Qingyang target? ”

Because the distance is a little far, and the design of the target pile is very small, it is no wonder that Lin Ling squinted his eyes and saw so vaguely.

"What Childe said is true, this is the Qingyang pot cover target that is known for its small size, it seems that this first game, the competition should be riding and shooting."

Listening to Caihe's explanation, Lin Ling nodded in agreement, but for Lin Ling, who struggled to ride a horse, this riding shot was nothing to look at.

However, when Lin Ling turned his head to look at Wang Shiya, he unexpectedly found that Wang Shiya looked at Jin Mingtai downstairs, and she was obsessed and yearning.

In fact, it is not uncommon for women to practice martial arts, because there will be women's armies in all dynasties, if it is not for this, just because Wang Shiya's Suzaku Camp is full of women, it will be pointed at the backbone of the world.

However, after thinking about the fight scene between Wang Shiya and the princess yesterday, Lin Ling was immediately relieved, obviously Wang Shiya, who was a military general, was attracted by the mounted archery project prepared by the audience.

Seeing this, Lin Lingqing coughed twice, ready to draw Wang Shiya's attention: "Ahem... Shiya, can you tell me about the rules of riding and archery? ”

In fact, Lin Ling said this, half of his mind wanted to follow Wang Shiya, since Wang Shiya was interested in riding and shooting, then he couldn't be too indifferent to this, otherwise when Wang Shiya found out, she would definitely be sad in her heart.

"Sure enough, Lin Lang is also a person who likes to ride and shoot."

Suddenly hearing Lin Ling say this, Wang Shiya looked back at Lin Ling with an excited face, as if she was waiting for Lin Ling to say this.

Before Lin Ling could say anything more, he only heard Wang Shiya say with relief: "Lin Lang, looking at the eighteen Qingyang grass targets, it indicates that only eighteen people participated in this martial arts, oh my God, I can't believe that only eighteen people were selected for this year's martial arts." ”

Seeing that Wang Shiya was so excited, Lin Ling followed the words and said: "Eighteen people... Isn't that a wonderful martial arts exact? ”

Shiya: "It's not just wonderful, this year, because my brother's Northwest Army is open to martial artists, in addition to the children of these gate lords in Gyeonggi, such as martial artists from other desolate places, they are simply going to fight for their heads!" ”

Seeing Wang Shiya's excited appearance, Lin Ling scratched her head helplessly, showing that even he didn't expect that when facing the things she liked, Wang Shiya would also show such a little woman's side.

However, Lin Ling was not satisfied with Wang Shiya's reply, because the focus of the question he just asked was the rules, but Wang Shiya was only excited, and obviously did not listen to this words.

Caihe, who was on the side, looked at Lin Ling frowning slightly, and immediately guessed what Lin Ling was thinking, but he only groaned slightly, organized his language and said: "Childe, the so-called riding and archery is that you must ride the matching war horse in the army, and under the running of the horse, the one who hits the bull's-eye with the arrow wins." ”

"However, the horses matched in the army are all crossbow horses, although they are docile, but they have no saddles, and their speed of movement is limited, although they are not fast or slow, but if the rider is not good at riding, it is easy to be dismounted by the horse when the bow is drawn."

After listening to Caihe's explanation, Lin Ling nodded lightly, but he still had some doubts in his heart, so he asked directly at Caihe: "It stands to reason that if the martial arts are arranged like this every year, then isn't this rule of the imperial court useless?" ”
