When I met his gaze, I even breathed tightly, remembering that I had just looked at Qing Han, I couldn't help but turn white, and hurriedly lowered my head.

Shui Xiu, who was standing next to me, saw that my face was ugly, and said softly, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" ”

"No, it's fine."

I turned my eyes a little flustered, Lian Changqing felt something, turned his head to look at me who was a little at a loss, and then looked at the other end, didn't say anything, just ordered Shui Xiu to take care of me more. At this time, the convoy was ready, and the emperor and queen got into the car, and after Concubine Li and Concubine Yun got into the car, I got into the carriage behind with Shui Xiu and Guan'er.

The holy car was not fast, and after half an hour, he arrived at Yaowu Tower.

Just got off the carriage, I saw that this place has already been crowded, this is the emperor's biggest trip after the last Taimiao sacrifice, the Praetorian Guard sent a large number of people and horses to guard, three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, the protection of this place is like an iron bucket, I stood on the side of the carriage, looked at those guards, and sighed softly.

Shui Xiu took my hand and said softly, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" ”

I was not even in the mood to speak, I only shook my head slightly, and when I turned around, I saw that the carriage on the other side had also stopped, and the familiar figure had opened the curtain and jumped down, although he was wearing a wide-sleeved robe, his skills were still very agile, and his clothes flew like a crane.

I just glanced at him and looked away again.

After the ministers and the people knelt down, Pei Yuanhao walked into the front gate with the queen, Concubine Li, and Concubine Yun. Yaowu Building is said to be a building, but it is actually a very large school field, but there is a three-story tower in front of the school field, which is more than several zhang high, very majestic and solemn.

On the other two sides of the martial arts field, there was also the Viewing Pavilion, and someone had already prepared the stove and other things in advance, Pei Yuanhao walked up slowly, and sat in the center with Chang Qing, while Nangong Lizhu and Ye Yunshuang sat at the nearest place to them.

Because today is the emperor personally to supervise the martial arts test, all the candidates walked to the martial arts field to bow to the emperor, I was standing behind Chang Qing, helping her hold a stove, as soon as I raised my eyes, I saw a familiar tall and burly figure on the martial arts field, handsome and distinct eyebrows, revealing a bit of sharpness, and some stubble on the chin, making his whole person look more and more rough.

It's him?!

I was shocked for a moment, but fortunately the people around me didn't pay attention, and all of them were engrossed in looking at the martial arts field below.

There were a total of 48 people who took the exam this time, and there were three rounds of competition.

In the first round, the competition was to divide 48 people into groups of two for a total of 24 groups, and the winning 24 people could enter the next round of the competition.

At the beginning of the first round, the martial arts field suddenly became jubilant, my eyes have been chasing the familiar figure, although I don't understand martial arts, but I can also see that he has neat fists and feet, and after a few moves, he will divide the victory and defeat, and the other two young men who look a little rich and noble, are the first to win the first round.

The victor will be able to leave the battle circle and stand aside to rest. There were already people around them watching them and talking.

As soon as the drum sounded, Chang Qing's whole person was silent, and all her body and mind were put into the bottom, I looked at her clean side face, under the long eyelashes, the originally calm and waveless eyes kept flickering, and several times, I seemed to see tears.

At this time, Pei Yuanhao stretched out his hand and gently covered her slender and cold hand, Chang Qing was slightly shocked and turned his head to look at him.

"The Emperor's ......"

"Queen, don't think about a lot of things."

“…… Be. The concubine knows. ”

She lowered her head slightly, Pei Yuanhao didn't say anything, just patted the back of her hand, those eyes were a little sharp, looking at the figures below who had already won, when he saw that somewhat familiar figure, he seemed to be thoughtful.

After a while, he turned his head slightly, and the squire of the military department who was standing behind him immediately stepped forward: "Your Majesty." ”

Pei Yuanhao raised his hand and pointed down: "That one, who is it?" ”

I stood next to him and followed his finger and pointed at the man.

The squire of the military department glanced down, bowed down and said, "If you go back to the emperor, that person's name is Sun Jingfei." ”

"Sun Jingfei? Can someone sponsor you? ”

"Nope. This person was originally a member of the fourth team of the Praetorian Guard, and he specially resigned for this martial arts test. ”

"Oh?"

Pei Yuanhao raised his eyebrows, looking at Sun Jingfei's eyes, which became more and more profound.

The squire of the military department looked at him, he didn't know what the emperor was thinking, his face revealed some apprehension, Chang Qing also heard it, turned his head and said softly: "Your Majesty, is there anything wrong?" ”

Pei Yuanhao glanced at her and said with a faint smile: "It's nothing." ”

That being said, his eyes were not like that at all, and even Chang Qing, I noticed that the expression she looked at that person was a little different from usual, as if the emperor and queen had found some memories of the past in this person.

After a while, the first competition is over, and when the candidates take a break, the next round of the competition will be held.

In the second round, weapons were tested.

While the test takers went down to rest, someone had already carried up several wooden frames, on which all kinds of weapons were prepared, and in the cold wind, it became more and more cold and terrifying.

Chang Qing seemed to feel the chill, reached out to hold the stove, but found that there was no temperature, she frowned slightly, I saw this scene, hurriedly took the stove and opened it, only to find that the incense inside had burned out.

She was about to turn around and call them to detain them, but when she saw these little girls looking down, I couldn't bear to disturb them, so I whispered: "Niangniang, please wait, the next official will go and help Niangniang get it." ”

She smiled helplessly, as if she was angry that I spoiled these children too much, so she could only let me go.

I held the stove, carefully retreated from the crowd, and then went down to the viewing pavilion and walked out of the gate, as soon as I got out of the gate, someone from the Praetorian Guard immediately came up and saluted me: "Lord Yue, what are your orders?" ”

They looked, and fell tight.

I smiled bitterly in my heart, didn't say anything, just nodded, went to the carriage and took a pack of incense tablets and threw some into the stove, cleaned up a little, and went back to Yaowu Building.

As soon as I walked into the door, I looked up and saw a familiar figure walking towards me.

Liu Qinghan!

As soon as I saw him, my heart jumped suddenly, and I couldn't help but clench the incense burner in my hand, but I saw that he looked abnormal, and kept looking around, as if he was looking for something, and I was about to come over, I only felt that my chest immediately continued to beat and the heart contracted fiercely, I don't know whether it was nervous or excited, as if it was about to jump out of my chest.

But immediately, Pei Yuanhao's vicious voice echoed in my mind-

"If you dare to do anything wrong with him, I will chop him up!"

And before leaving the palace, I didn't even make contact with him, just looked at each other and smiled, Pei Yuanhao looked at us with a look in his eyes, as if he wanted to choke my throat.

Although I know that Pei Yuanhao admires him a lot, and even now he relies on him a lot, I know better that if the emperor really wants to kill him, he will definitely not show any mercy to his subordinates. I have already tasted Pei Yuanhao's methods, and I am afraid, I don't care anymore, I just don't want him to too-

As soon as I thought of this, I subconsciously flashed to the side of the path.

He was looking around, but he didn't notice me, so he hurried to the other end.

I stood in the corner, watching his figure disappear, still holding the stove tightly in my hand, but suddenly realized that the stove was not very warm.

No matter how warm things are, they can't withstand the chill in my heart.

I was silent for a while, and then I sighed a little dejectedly, and was about to turn around and leave, when I heard the sound of a deep conversation between two people at the other end of the canvas tent propped up behind me.

"Hey, are you ready?"

"It's all set."

"This time, the emperor and the queen are here, but don't show your feet."

"Don't worry."

As soon as I heard this, my heart chuckled, except for the observation pavilion in front of the martial arts field, all the test takers used canvas to prop up tents and temporarily set up these sheds for change of clothes and rest; The rest of the test takers is at that end, and this side is where the people of the military department prepare and rest.

When they say these things, is it -- could it be that there will be something wrong with the martial arts examination room?

Thinking like this, my heart jumped suddenly, tried my best to suppress my trembling, walked over cautiously, tried not to touch those canvas tents, held my breath and listened carefully, and heard the two people whisper again: "Among us, only the one surnamed Sun is good at using guns, and when he comes on the field later, he will definitely pick a gun to fight." ”

"Hehe, but he didn't expect that we were already on that gun—"

"Shhhh

"Got it."

"This time, the nephew sponsored by Lord Shen is determined to win Wu Zhuangyuan, and we can't let this guy come out halfway and mess up our plans. Otherwise, as soon as Lord Shen starts a fire, he can't eat and walk around. ”

……

Lord Shen, it's Shen Gong Gong again!

I frowned, it seems that they suffered a loss in the scientific examination of the Gongyuan Academy two days ago, Shen Gongyi is not giving up, he also knows that Pei Yuanhao's martial arts test this time is for the commander of the Praetorian Guard to select talents, so he will be determined to win, and he actually let people make such a trick behind his back! It sounds like those people should have done something on the spear that Sun Jingfei was using!

It's too bad, not to mention that if they win, Pei Yuanhao's move will be empty, and the sword in the examination room has no eyes, what if Sun Jingfei is injured?

No, they must not be allowed to succeed!

Thinking like this, I didn't go back to the observation tower, and hurriedly walked to the other end, but there were many canvas sheds here, and there were many people around, so I finally squeezed over, and I heard a rapid drum beat in the martial arts field, and a voice said loudly: "The first scene, Sun Jingfei vs. Han Yue!" ”

Oh no, he's going to play!

I couldn't care about anything at this time, so I hurriedly rushed to the side of the road leading to the martial arts field, and opened the tent: "Brother Sun! ”
