When Sizhen was in the capital to Fulin Fuqin, Sun Yanling was forced to marry in the Tusi Office in Xincheng, Guangxi.

inexplicably provoked a life lawsuit in the capital, and was inexplicably exonerated and transferred back to Guangxi as a general, Sun Yanling is not depressed.

But what made him even more depressed was that the imperial court transferred him to Xincheng as the general of the Green Battalion, which was the territory of Mo Zong's edict Mo Da Tusi, that is, when the King of Dingnan was in the past, he was also polite to Mo Da Tusi.

On the surface, Tusi has been fully incorporated into the official system of the imperial court, and must pay taxes and obey the dispatch of the imperial court. In fact, the official system of the Tusi is "based on the amount of labor, the difference between the superior and the inferior", once appointed as the Tusi by the imperial court, it can be hereditary like a prince, passed down from generation to generation, the so-called appointment of the imperial court, is just a formality.

The Qing court implemented the system of joint governance of the land, the officials were appointed by the imperial court, and the local officials were hereditary and replaced, but the powers were not unified with each other. Sun Yanling, the general of the Green Battalion, entered Xincheng because the imperial court wanted to further strengthen its control over Tusi, reduce the power of Mo Tusi, and control its behavior.

Tusi as a local official, is the essence of the lord, set political, economic, military, judicial in one, is the supreme ruler of the local area, "the emperor of the soil", the governance of the territory of the political, economic, cultural and litigation, punishment, etc., under its rule of the native people enjoy the right to kill and take away, the military Tusi's territory implements the native soldier system, in the way of planting official fields and military service, the native people are organized into wolf soldiers, maintaining their rule and for the dynasty to recruit.

Today's Tusi Mo Zongzhao, is already the twelfth Tusi of the Mo family, because his eldest brother Zong Qi, the second brother Zong Chang was killed and did not attack the position of Tusi, it was his turn, although the position, he is only a county, but the eighteen forts of Xincheng 250 villages and towns, all under his control, in the imperial court to adopt the policy of "razing the raze" and "governing the barbarians with barbarians", Tusi is a wealthy family with local wealth, food, martial arts, and armed strength, Sun Yanling, the general of the green battalion, as a rogue official of the imperial court, wants to achieve results here, You must first pass the level of Moda Toast.

What's more, his task this time was to persuade Mo Da Tusi to let a proficient Hanmo Han man serve as a warden in Xincheng, be in charge of the documents, and entertain the official documents exchanged between the peak and the various proclamations issued by the local officials, as well as the Yin Guan's report on the documents, etc.; Then there are four to eight leaders in the government office, each leader is in charge of 20 soldiers, who are responsible for guarding the county office, escorting prisoners, going deep into the fort, conveying the instructions of the local officials, inspecting and supervising the fort and the lizheng to manage civil affairs, and completing various taxes and donations and other affairs arranged by the imperial court......

This is tantamount to changing the land and reducing the power of the Tusi, can Mo Zongshao agree?

Definitely not.

Then there is only a salute before the soldiers, and if you can't be convinced, you will see each other with fists.

However, Sun Yanling still planned to try to persuade Mo Da Tusi to agree, after all, it was a good thing to be able to spend less soldiers, for the imperial court, for the Dingfan, and for the people.

His breakthrough is Mo Tusi's youngest daughter - Mo Daxiu, a girl who fell in love with him at first sight because he was rescued from the tiger's mouth, and intended to use a competition to force him to marry him.

Mo Daxiu said that if Sun Yanling's archery could beat the people of their Tusi Mansion, she would not mention the marriage, help him introduce her father, and help him persuade his father to agree to the court's request.

If he loses, he obediently agrees to be the little son-in-law of Mo Da Tusi.

Mo Zongshao has refused and excused himself to see Sun Yanling sixteen times for various reasons, and he can't even see anyone, so what kind of persuasion can he talk about?

Therefore, this martial arts must be compared, and it must be compared if it is not compared.

The winter sun hangs in the tiled blue sky, and the brilliant light of gold fills the heavens and the earth.

The Dongyuan campus of the Tusi Office is surrounded by drums and shaking the sky.

Mo Daxiu rode a snow-white war horse and galloped on the school grounds, her silver mane flying in the wind.

Her fiery red brocade shirt reflected a dazzling and gorgeous halo in the sunlight, setting off her delicate and delicate beauty without fat powder, as crystal and tender as snow jade.

At that time, the applause from the audience shook the sky, and cheers and shouts came one after another.

Daxiu knew that these applause and cheers were not for herself, but for her opponent Sun Yanling.

Because she used the excuse that Sun Yanling was just a golden jade, she said that if Sun Yanling won the Mo family, she would not say a word to persuade Ah Bo (Zhuang language, the meaning of father, father) to agree to the request of the imperial court to set up a Han warden and the officers and soldiers of the Tusi Office to be directly appointed by the green battalion soldiers.

She said proudly: "The place is our Mo family, and the rules are set by you." ”

Sun Yanling smiled at the corner of his lips and announced the rules of the competition: "The competition is a group of two, each person has ten arrows, riding a horse to shoot, and the first to shoot ten bullseyes wins, and enters the next round of competition." ”

Daxiu originally just wanted to hide from the sidelines and watch the battle, but unfortunately her two brothers were really not angry, and they lost to Sun Yanling, a Han man, one after another.

As proud as she is, how can she swallow this idle breath? I have to compete with him.

Seeing that Sun Yanling's carriage had already shot the third arrow, Daxiu, who still hadn't fired a single arrow, was not in a hurry, but just waved the horsewhip, and the war horse galloped towards the arrow target.

This competition is all about speed and arm strength. As a woman, how can her arm strength be comparable to that of a strong and brave man? Daxiu secretly congratulated herself on her foresight and asked Ah Po for this magical horse.

Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the arrow target, Daxiu was completely sure in her heart, and she saw that Sun Yanling had already drawn her bow and was about to shoot the sixth arrow.

She quickly pulled out three arrows from the quiver, bent her bow and set up the arrows, looked at the three arrow targets with her eyes like torches, and shouted: "Medium!" The three arrows came out of the string like meteors, and Sun Yanling's arrows hit the bull's-eye at the same time.

Everyone's eyes were originally focused on Sun Yanling, and they didn't look at how Daxiu suddenly hit three arrow targets in such a short period of time.

Everyone couldn't help but stop dying, their eyes focused on Daxiu alone, and the field instantly became quiet and abnormal, even Sun Yanling couldn't help but put down the bow and crossbow in his hand to look at her.

I saw that Daxiu pulled out three more arrows, aimed at the target, and shouted: "Medium! ”

The three arrows were like three bolts of lightning that cut through the air and hit the bull's-eye.

Daxiu rode his horse towards the last four targets.

Sun Yanling woke up at this time, and hurriedly raised his whip to chase after him, it seemed that he was in a hurry, and he was even busy pulling his bow and sending arrows.

Daxiu galloped as she raised her bow and fired three arrows.

Sun Yanling immediately fired two arrows in a row, but he still lagged behind.

Everyone in the audience held their breath, not daring to blink and staring at the two people on the field.

The air in the entire school yard froze in an instant like a gel.

The last one!

Daxiu's eyes were like sharp swords staring at the arrow target, and she pulled out her bow and shot the last arrow: "Medium!" ”

The arrow flew impartially into the middle of the target.

At this time, someone in the audience suddenly shouted: "Good archery!" Good archery! Immediately after that, applause suddenly rang out all around, and it carried through the entire school field.

Daxiu grabbed the reins, turned her head and glanced proudly at Sun Yanling, ran back to the tent with her whip raised, and jumped off the horse.

She walked into the handsome tent heroically, and smiled brightly at Mo Zongzhao Tusi who was sitting on the handsome chair: "Ah Bo, this competition is won by my daughter, you can help me achieve my wish in this family matter." ”

Unexpectedly, Mo Zongzhao's eyes were gloomy, and he whispered to her with a solemn face: "Nonsense!" I'll clean you up later! ”

He glanced at his daughter coldly, turned his head sideways and said sharply to the guards beside him: "Send her back to the house!" ”

However, his glaring made Daxiu very unconvinced.

"Why, you said that if your daughter wins this marriage, you will make the decision for me, don't you even believe Ah Bo's words?" Daxiu stomped her feet.

"You won? Take a good look at those targets. ”

When the guards brought up the target, Daxiu was dumbfounded.

The last arrow, Sun Yanling's arrow, was actually shot in the heart of her arrow.

What precision and arm strength that must be!

Looking at Sun Yanling's peach blossom eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Daxiu suddenly blushed.

As soon as she turned around, she ran out of the tent and rode home on a snowflake horse.

Mo Tusi Office was built in the Ming Dynasty Wanli ten years (1582), by the eighth Xincheng Tusi Mo Zhenwei to complete the main building of the Office, after the experience of Ren Tusi successively expanded the ancillary building, not only has a strong Zhuang characteristics, but also the scale is large, the style is elegant.

The Tusi Yamen is mainly composed of the main buildings such as the Tusi Yamen, the Mo's Ancestral Hall, the Tusi Residence, the Dafudi, the Three Realms Temple, etc., covering an area of nearly 600 acres, the houses alone cover an area of 60 acres, the eaves in the mansion are curled, the size of the palace is scattered, the scale is grand, the momentum is magnificent, although the momentum of the Motu Si Office of the Imperial Palace is not as good, but it is also a rich and peaceful prosperous and gorgeous atmosphere.

As soon as Daxiu returned home, she hurried to the back garden, where she lived.

She recalled Ah Bo Shicai's cold eyes, and couldn't help shuddering, thinking that she was blaming her for being smug, and rushed out rashly to compete with Sun Yanling, but if she hadn't sneaked in and didn't hold back for a while, how could she know that her brothers didn't intend to release water to Sun Yanling?

His archery skills are so good!

However, Ah Po's glare was enough to make her tremble. Daxiu began to think about it, and she found a problem for Ah Po, but she didn't know how to end it! For today's plan, we can only overcome rigidity with softness.

There is also Sun Yanling, a handsome man, she is not willing to let go of her hand like this.

Daxiu returned to the Yulin Pavilion, and as soon as she stepped into the main hall, she shouted, "Xiaocao, change my clothes for me." ”

Immediately, Xiaocao came out of the warm pavilion with a timid face, walked to her side with her head slightly bowed, and didn't dare not say a word.

"What's wrong?" A hint of suspicion flashed in Daxiu's eyes.

"The eldest lady is back." Xiaocao secretly glanced at the East Warm Pavilion and whispered.

Daxiu was shocked, this is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight! Why did you just bump into this juncture, and my sister came back? How to deal with this?

She bit her lip and thought for a moment, and said, "No matter how much, change your clothes first!" He turned around and walked into the Xinuan Pavilion.

Xiaocao hurriedly summoned a few people to follow her into the Xinuan Pavilion.
