Chapter 425: Heroes Come Out of Youth

In the emperor's words, the people below are always inevitably speculating. The ministers were more thoughtful, and they liked to turn around a thousand times in their hearts, so compared to the previous scene, the hall was much quieter all of a sudden.

The emperor had long been accustomed to this kind of atmosphere, and his face was always smiling, and he did not forget to encourage Wang Jing: "Today is just a competition, you just do your best, you don't need to care about winning or losing." Whether this game is won or lost, I have a lot of rewards! ”

As soon as these words came out, there was another uproar below. Wang Xian and Wang Dong glanced at each other, and their feelings were very complicated.

Wang Jing hugged his fist towards the emperor and replied loudly, "Yes, Your Majesty." There was a fighting spirit in his voice, not at all intimidated by the miraculous skill of the Mongol warriors.

Wang Jing reached out to the arrow basket to catch the arrow, but when he touched the arrow feather, his hand paused. He suddenly turned his head and grinned at Xuan Shao, who was standing on the sidelines watching the battle, and squeezed his eyes very comically.

Xuan Shao raised his eyebrows slightly, but saw Wang Jing grab three arrows from the arrow basket at once.

"Huh? He's going to shoot three arrows like the Mongols? One of the ministers exclaimed.

The rest of the crowd also whispered to each other, and the hall was once again lively.

"Lord Wang, your kid can actually use this kind of magic skill? This is really a hero! A Wenchen who was standing close to Wang Dong touched his beard and said.

Wang Dong's eyes were very complicated, but he said with a light smile: "Children are playing, practice to strengthen their bodies." ”

"......" is actually quite inflated.

The emperor who sat at the top was surprised, and the look of interest in his eyes was even worse.

Xuan Shao really thought about it. Shake your head and laugh.

Ignoring everyone's surprised or expectant eyes, Wang Jing's gaze only fixed on the target in front of him, as if all the sounds and sights of this world had left him, leaving him alone, the target, the bow and arrow already in his hand.

Finally, he took a deep breath and placed the arrow in his hand on the bowstring.

There was a burst of boos in the hall. and the sound of sighing and sighing. It turned out that although Wang Jing was holding three arrows in his hand, there was only one with the bowstring. Isn't that appetizing? You won't shoot three arrows at the same time, what kind of master posture are you pretending! The crowd felt that they had been fooled.

The emperor still smiled. Didn't say anything.

Wang Jing didn't take these to heart, he didn't hear them at all.

Lift your breath and loosen your fingers, and there is a "whoosh" sound. The arrow is off the string. It's just that after this arrow was shot, Wang Jing didn't stop moving, and everyone didn't see his next action clearly at all, but then they heard two more "whoosh-whoosh-" sounds, and the three arrows actually left the string one after another almost without time interval.

"Bang-bang-bang-" Three times sounded in succession, and the hall was silent in an instant, and even breathing could be heard.

The Emperor suddenly stood up, staring at the target in front of him, the light in his eyes flashing, and he shouted halfway: "Good! ”

As soon as the emperor said this, he said. It seems that a certain switch has been turned on all of a sudden, and the cheers in the hall are continuous, and the cheers are more like they can lift off the roof of the temple.

Wang Jing looked at the target in front of him, and then looked at his palm, the light in his eyes was as dazzling as the scorching sun. The ecstasy on his face was more evident than anyone else in the temple.

It worked!

Three arrows!

The Mongol warriors fired three arrows in unison, which required great effort. Wang Jing fired three arrows in a row, and the latter arrow followed closely the previous one. There were just three "pop-" sounds, and it was Wang Jing's first arrow that squeezed out the one in the nearest bull's-eye of the Mongolian warriors, and the next two hit the previous arrow he shot one after another, and the three arrows actually landed in one place.

This type of shooting. Compared with the three arrows of the Mongolian warriors, the dexterity and sensitivity of the archers are more tested, and it is clear who is better in archery.

Xuan Shao walked up to Wang Jing and patted him lightly on the shoulder. Wang Jing finally came back to his senses. He looked at Xuan Shao and said incoherently happily: "I...... I did it! The time I saw you do it and taught me some tricks, I've been practicing on my own, but today was the best I ever shot. ”

Xuan Shao looked at the arrow target, nodded and smiled: "You did a good job, you can practice for another two years and five beads in a row." ”

When Wang Jing heard this, the excitement in his eyes was even stronger.

Xuan Shao reminded in a low voice: "Go and see the driver." ”

Wang Jing thought that he was in the palace, nodded hurriedly, restrained his expression, handed the bowstring in his hand to the attendant on the side, and walked to the emperor to kneel down to resume his life.

The emperor laughed, Wang Jing gave him a big face today. A student born in a civil official family actually singled out the Mongolian warriors and won so beautifully.

"Good boy, the kung fu is really hard enough, no wonder Xuan Shao recommended you to come up. Have you ever read a book of war? ”

Wang Jing smiled out of his white teeth: "I've read some." "I thought about it and counted, "I have read Wu Zi, Liutao, Wei Yizi, Sima Fa, Taibai Yin Sutra, Hu Jin Sutra, Ji Xiao Xinshu, and the actual record of military training ......"

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then scolded with a smile: "Good boy, I don't know how to be modest." ”

Wang Jing was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and blushed and said: "Mr. said, when he was my age, he kept the scroll in his hand all day long, and now when he knows the destiny of heaven, the books he has read can't be put in both compartments, so he can only be laid under the bed." Students have only read these books, and they really shouldn't be taken out and said. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

There was a burst of laughter underground.

The emperor couldn't help laughing: "Who is your husband?" ”

An old scholar with a wrinkled face stood up with a bitter face, knelt down and responded: "Chen Hanlin Academy, Wu Qian." Minister...... Shame. ”

The old head of the Hanlin Academy burst into tears in his heart, and the old man was talking about a serious book! Serious book! It's not the art of war! What a stinky boy! When the old man said the title of the book, you fell asleep, and now you have to pull out the old man's bones for you! Criminals! Criminals!

The emperor didn't hear the voice of the old master's heart, and said with a smile: "The students you teach are good, and there are rewards!" ”

The old master was stunned for a moment, and kowtowed tremblingly to thank him.

The emperor said to Wang Jing again: "I see that you can be literate and martial. There is a style of Confucianism! After pondering for a while, he said: "In this way, I will make you the captain of Zhengliupin Chengxin, and go to the forward battalion tomorrow to serve as the forward school." ”

When Wang Jing heard this, he was stunned and speechless. Until Wang Xian on the side reminded softly: "Don't thank you yet!" ”

Wang Jing reacted, and his heart was full of excitement. Captain Chengxin...... Forward Battalion Forward ...... These are martial arts!

"Thank you for the emperor's grace!"

The ministers below are busy congratulating you and me word by word, congratulating the emperor on his good general and so on.

The Forward Battalion is one of the five battalions of the Praetorian Guard's pro-military battalion, the guard battalion, the forward battalion, the Shenji battalion and the Xiaocai battalion. But the Praetorian Guard has always been the elite of the imperial court, and not anyone who wants to enter can enter. Besides, the emperor's intention was to let Wang Jing go to the Praetorian Guard to experience and experience first, and then there would be other uses.

And for Wang Jing. As long as he is a martial artist, he is already very satisfied, and after taking this first step, he will earn back the honor in the future little by little. Most importantly. This martial position was sealed by the emperor himself, and he did not fall out with the Wang family because of this, so that his sister would not be sad. It couldn't have been better for him.

Wang Jing felt that he was smashed by a big pie falling from the sky, and he couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south. When I left the temple, I still had the feeling that I couldn't find where I was. It wasn't until Wang Xian patted him on the shoulder next to him that he reacted.

"Brother Jing, my uncle and grandfather are talking to you!" Wang Xian said helplessly.

Wang Jing touched his head embarrassedly: "Uncle grandfather, what did you just say?" I...... I'm just too ...... It was so unexpected that ......"

Wang Xian smiled and shook his head: "What's not just your accident? I was also taken aback, our Wang family has a history of hundreds of years. Where have there been military generals? It's just that the emperor's order cannot be violated, and since the emperor has served you with an official position, you can't be perfunctory. What you said in the temple just now is not bad. Whether it is for literature or martial arts, our Wang family is only loyal to the monarch and serves the country. As long as the family and country need it, the scholar can also go into battle to kill the enemy's horse leather shroud. I hope you will remember what you said today in the future. ”

Wang Jing was even more embarrassed, but this showed that the Wang family had acquiesced in him to be a military attachΓ©, so he was also happy in his heart.

Wang Dong on the side said loudly at this time: "When did you discuss it with Xuan Shao?" Why don't you discuss it with your elders? Let me and your uncle and grandfather not prepare at all. ”

When Wang Jing heard this, he chuckled in his heart, and cautiously glanced at his father with a plain face: "We." No, it wasn't discussed. In fact, he was very surprised when he was called in.

Wang Dong glanced at Wang Jing and did not speak. Wang Xian said with a smile: "How can you say that Brother Jing'er is also for my dynasty and earns face for the family today, why do you have to scare the child with a straight face?" I think it was because Xuan Shao was not used to the arrogance of the Mongolian envoys, so he wanted to rub their prestige, and thought of using the students of the Wenchen family to deal with their so-called warriors. How many children are there in the Wenchen family? Xuan Shao naturally thought of Brother Jing'er's brother-in-law. ”

When Wang Jing heard this, he nodded busily, looked at Wang Dong and said, "Yes, father, that's it!" He was still a little afraid of Wang Dong's father.

Wang Dong didn't say anything more, and Wang Jing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

******

After the banquet, it was nearly three watches, and the lights were still on in the study of the emperor's imperial garden.

"What do you think of Uenqi?" The emperor sat in his wide five-screen chair with a carved dragon red sandalwood chair, drinking tea while asking Xuan Shao, who was standing aside.

Xuan Shao raised his head when he heard this, and his good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly: "The emperor wants to use him?" ”

The Emperor stood up and took two steps back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back: "Isn't it logical for me to want to use him?" For selfishness, he is my nephew. Yu Gong, although Mongolia was temporarily defeated this time, but this clan has always been extremely thick-skinned, turning their faces like turning a book, how can I believe that they begged to surrender this time, and after turning back and fattening the soldiers and horses with the silver I gave, will they point the finger at me? You have done an excellent job in southern Xinjiang. Now that the new saint of southern Xinjiang is close to our dynasty, the remnants of those sins who fled have no longer become a big climate. The army you have placed in Southern Xinjiang can help the leaders of Southern Xinjiang deal with the remnants and maintain local order. Since your return, there has been no large-scale chaos in southern Xinjiang. ”

"Your Majesty, do you want to use the same means to deal with southern Xinjiang to deal with Mongolia?" Xuan Shao groaned.

The emperor smiled: "I really want to divide the Mongol forces into two according to the gourd painting scoop, and watch them fight among themselves. So they still have the strength to covet my country and rob my people? Now the Mongolian prince is very popular with the Mongolian king, and there is a group of people around him, and his wings are full. After the death of the Mongolian king, if there is no accident, it should be this eldest prince who will get the throne of Mongolia. My nephew, has not been taken seriously for many years, and it is normal for me, an uncle, to help him. It's just that I learned a lesson from my ancestors, and I was afraid of raising wolves, so I was worried that I wouldn't notice it for a while, and I raised a white-eyed wolf! ”

Xuan Shao thought for a while and replied: "This method is not impossible, Wu Enqi will stay in Beijing for a while." During this time, the ministers will send people to keep a good watch on him. ”

The Emperor nodded with satisfaction: "That's what I mean. When necessary, you give it a try. If it is available, it can be used, and it should also help stabilize it. ”

Royal family affection has never been unconditional. If the emperor wants to help the second prince Wu Enqi, he also puts the interests of the country first and then talks about other things.

"By the way, your brother-in-law, are you sure you want him to go to the martial arts?" The emperor smiled at Xuan Shao, "As soon as that kid's arrow shot, I knew that it was you who taught it." It's just that the Wang family has produced civil servants since ancient times, and it will be much smoother to go to the civil office. With his status, even if the imperial examination is unfavorable in the future, it is logical to get a civil official position. ”

Xuan Shao smiled: "Speaking of which, I really haven't taught him much." Arrows, he only watched me shoot twice and learned on his own, he is a gift, I think it would be better if the court could have one more brave general than one more civil official who did nothing. ”

The emperor was surprised: "Do you have such a talent?" That's a real talent. ”

Xuan Shao said: "Whether it is a talent or a mediocre talent, the emperor has a keen eye, and he will naturally find out for himself in the future." Therefore, whether to take a civilian job or a military position, he must also rely on his own ability. ”

The Emperor laughed when he heard this.

"That sounds fair!"

******

After the feast again, Wu Enqi went out of the palace to the residence arranged for him outside the palace by the imperial court. It's just that when he stepped out of the main hall, he was stopped by the chamberlain.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince, our Queen Mother is invited."

Wu Enqi stopped, his face was full of surprise, and then nodded with a smile: "It's time to go to see the Queen Mother, father-in-law, please lead the way." ”

The entourage behind him wanted to follow, but was stopped by several other internal supervisors: "The harem is heavy, and you can't enter without a summons." ”
