More and more people gathered outside the general's mansion, and the noise of cars and horses, and whispers gathered together, making this autumn morning particularly lively. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

These people looked at the tightly closed vermilion gate, and looked at the majestic-looking guards on both sides of the Shuai's mansion, but no one dared to step on the white marble steps in front of the door.

At this time, the two heavy vermilion gates suddenly opened, and the large shadow wall carved with colorful auspicious clouds in the general's mansion suddenly appeared in front of him, and a wooden plaque was hung on the shadow wall, which was written by His Majesty the Emperor when Yao Caiwei was born, in order to show the importance of the Tang Dynasty to people with strong cultivation talents.

All the voices died down at this moment, and everyone's eyes looked inside.

I didn't see the tall and mighty hussar general going out to greet the guests, and only an old-fashioned servant stood at the head of the door.

The first person to rush in was suddenly turned into a clay sculpture, and the smug expression on his face was immediately replaced by surprise.

The door opened.

"General, is this agreeing to everyone coming to the door to ask for marriage?"

"Go in now, the general won't find an excuse to slaughter himself in the future, right?"

"This is the princess's will, and General Yao will not dare to disobey it if he wants to. As for whether to wear small shoes, that is a matter of the future, and besides, Yao Changqi has always been above board, and he can't do anything in secret. ”

Fang Cai's pride has turned into surprise, then from surprise to doubt, and then from doubt to current hesitation.

At this moment, the wind is blowing clearly, and the surroundings are silent, but no one dares to fight for this first place.

The first to enter will also be the first to be rejected, and no one wants to be the first.

Although I know that there is not much hope, but no one can die of this heart, I want to try, even if I can see Miss Yao's demeanor, it is not in vain.

At least in the future conversations, such a strong stroke can be added: I once went to the General's Mansion to ask for relatives, and it was Miss Yao who personally received me.

Everyone knows that the general married his wife, Princess Chengping, and is the sister-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor today, which is a relative of the emperor. This kind of family affair is originally high, and everyone present has some self-knowledge.

Now they are hesitant to continue their courtship.

To ask or not to ask, that's really the question.

And for Yao Changqi, it is also a question whether to agree or not to agree.

Two middle-aged people dressed in fancy clothes threw hands to each other in the crowd, and the shorter one said, "Yo, Captain Lu, you also come to ask for a kiss?"

Mrs. Lu glanced at the other party and said, "Isn't this Sima Zhao?

Zhao Sima laughed and arched his hand again: "Then Captain Lu, please first!"

Lu Duwei smiled and said, "It's better for you to invite first!"

Someone on the side suddenly sneered: "The General's Mansion is asking for relatives, and there are still people who are humble to each other, which is really gentlemanly." ”

The two looked at each other, and the crowd on both sides still gave way to a passage, and one person came in a charity.

He was in his thirties, his expression was cold and arrogant, and he was followed by eight guards who crossed the sword, all of whom were strong and good men.

"See King Ning's Chitose!"

Everyone bowed together.

King Ning was slightly fat, looking white and clean, and when he saw the suitors rubbing shoulders one after another, he laughed, and slowly stepped on the stone steps in front of the general's door, facing everyone.

Seeing this situation, the guards of the General's Mansion ran back to report the current affairs.

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone was saluting King Ning, Yao Changqi hurriedly came after receiving the news, and after a brief greeting, King Ning suddenly had a solemn face and saluted to the north again and again.

His Majesty the Emperor learned that this matter had brought great trouble to the general, so he specially invited the sharpshooter general Tian Qianfeng to lay down the "Nine Songs and Secrets", and those who could break through the pass were allowed to come to the door to ask for relatives, of course, the final choice was still on the general and the princess. ”

Before the words fell, there was a commotion.

King Ning is the eldest brother of the current crown prince, and his words are naturally very weighty, not to mention that he is on the orders of the emperor.

"Nine Songs through the Dark" is a kind of magic skill to test the archery, is a military first-class martial arts realm master in the high altitude to lay a phantom, relying on the vitality of heaven and earth, the phantom hides a copper coin, requiring the archer to stand on the ground and shoot the money hole, and the copper coin does not fall.

It's easy to say, but it's hard.

The air is full of vitality, and the vitality of the arrow cluster will fall when it encounters the master of the first-grade martial arts realm, and only by recognizing the emptiness of the vitality and skillfully avoiding the strong vitality can it be possible to shoot the copper coin.

Of course, even to be able to see copper coins, it requires a good archery.

Looking from the ground, a copper coin in the air has nine phantoms, and a closer look becomes eighteen copper coins, when you lead the bow to aim, the tension of the bowstring causes a slight fluctuation of vitality, and what appears in front of you at this time may be ninety-nine eighty-one copper coins.

Even some lowly test subjects mistakenly believe that there are no copper coins everywhere in heaven and earth, and the so-called "indiscriminate flowers are already charming eyes".

Of course, there is only one copper coin, true and false, fake and true.

This has also stumped non-math students in the previous Tai Academy examinations, and if they can break the "Nine Songs", as far as the subject of archery is concerned, it will definitely be listed at the top of the Qingyun list.

In the Tang Dynasty, most of the strong people who could lay down the "Nine Songs and Secrets" were sharpshooters in the army.

Tian Qianfeng is Yao Changqi's subordinate, who terrified the enemy army with his magical archery skills, and this time he was ordered by the queen, so he naturally did not dare to be careless. After greeting King Ning and his former superiors, with a wave of his hand, the qi of his whole body spread, and a copper coin in his hand shot out, high into the clouds, condensed, and fixed in the air.

Not to mention ordinary archers, even cultivators, if you want to shoot a copper coin, it is not an easy task.

This was originally an archery subject in the big competition, but it is also unique to be used here.

When many people see this scene, they will undoubtedly think of the allusion of Gaozu's "bird screen to recruit relatives".

Her father Dou Yi did not want her to marry a layman, so he painted two peacocks on the screen, and let the suitors send two arrows, and both arrows hit the peacock's eyes to be considered successful. Gao Zu happened to be proficient in archery, and both arrows were shot in the eyes of peacocks, and finally married Queen Dou.

This fine tradition of marrying relatives with archery is the first of the Li dynasty, and His Majesty the Emperor has enough reasons to vigorously promote it.

The noise did not stop, because it was so unexpected that no one could have expected it.

What they could expect was that all the sons and brothers who came to ask for marriage this time would be eliminated nine times out of ten, and if they didn't get it right, the entire army would be wiped out.

As a divine arrow general, although under his own position, Yao Changqi also respects Tian Qianfeng. Not only because the other party has repeatedly performed miraculous feats in countless wars, but also because Tian Qianfeng is upright and open-minded.

Yao Changqi took his arm very affectionately, and then walked to the steps with King Ning, ordered the servants to bring the benches and square tables, looked at the bright copper coins in the sky, and looked up at the tea.

At this moment, the general was very relaxed. Because he knew the difficulty of "Nine Songs", this may be His Majesty's compensation for the trouble caused by the princess's occasional words.

The princess may have remorse, but as the most authoritative holy princess of the dynasty, she can't admit that she did wrong, but she doesn't want her ministers to be embarrassed, so please ask His Majesty the Emperor to think of such a compromise method.

"Nine Songs and Quiet" will eliminate all the young children present today.

No one can shoot a copper coin, unless they are both proficient in archery and at the same time a highly skilled practitioner.

However, no matter how talented and powerful the young men in front of them are, none of them have such amazing archery skills.

The guards who followed King Ning took out the bows and arrows that had been prepared long ago, longbows, hard bows, and even the standard bows and arrows in the army. This is also due to the fact that each person has different habits, and they are free to choose the bow and arrow that they think is suitable.

However, after waiting for a long time, no one dared to try.

The sun began to move westward, and although it was early autumn, the heat continued unabated, and several servants brought out a large umbrella and propped it up the stone steps, and immediately cast a shadow to block out the sun.

King Ning was a little anxious, looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "It's not that you are allowed to go to the battlefield at this moment, is there no one who dares to take a bow and arrow?"

Tian Qianfeng smiled, and an endless stream of vitality emanated from his body, staring into the sky, holding up the copper coin high above.

Many people don't even see copper coins, only glittering gold dots in the sky.

Others have begun to sweat profusely.

Finally, a young man could not hold his breath, rolled up his sleeves, ran to the guard, chose a bow and arrow, and then took aim.

"Well done!" King Ning said as he looked at the young man.

The boy looked at it for a long time, and his arm began to tremble slightly, obviously not seeing where the real target was.

Yao Chang looked at him and sighed softly. The general didn't sigh because he couldn't get started, he actually sighed because he couldn't meet a good general.

At that moment, the arrow in the young man's hand shot out.

The arrow castrated quickly, and it seemed that it was about to approach the copper coin, but because the direction was too off, it ran into the vitality caused by Tian Qianfeng, and immediately bounced off and fell to the ground.

"What a pity!"

People were nervous to look at the feather arrows, and at this time, many people were relieved to see that they had missed the target.

It's just that the word "pity" still comes out of their mouths.

Everything was difficult at the beginning, and then a few people returned in vain.

All the people who went up to try to break the "Nine Curves and Darkness" all agreed that the arrows they sent out were only a little bit worse, but in Tian Qianfeng's eyes, they were too bad.

King Ning whispered in Yao Changqi's ear: "Your Majesty's method is indeed stumped on these teenagers. ”

Just when people's eyes were on the copper coins, Zhuo Zangfeng took advantage of the moment when the guards in front of the General's Mansion were slightly derelict in their duties, and followed an old man who often transported firewood to the mansion and walked in with a swagger.
