Chapter One Hundred and Nine: Prelude to Martial Arts

In other words, what Zhao Guanjia said is right, martial arts have been held since the Wu Zetian period, and there are also in the Song Dynasty, and even Wang Yan, one of the eighteen kings of Jianyan, was born as a martial artist. However, if you look at the Song Dynasty's emphasis on literature and light on martial arts, the gold content of martial arts scholars can be imagined.

However, everything is developing and changing, and Jing Kang shamefully made the scholars who were intoxicated by the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty understand the importance of force. When the ruler blindly despises the martial arts, and even the soldiers almost have to be exiled with tattoos, of course, the martial arts are not taken seriously, but this Jianyan Tianzi is either soaked in the military camp all day long, or he takes the lead in the battle. The social status of soldiers and even martial arts students has increased rapidly in the past ten years.

Anyway, Hu Yin was already dissatisfied with the style of many veterans of the Imperial Left Army to the extreme, and urgently needed them to study, and even replaced them with Wang Shixiong and Yueyun-style young professional soldiers on a large scale.

Coincidentally, in all areas where there is a large-scale garrison, the chief officers have this demand, and they have written to express their support for Wu Jinshi, and even Li Gang, who drank tea all day long and waited for the envoys of Western Liao, couldn't help but write a song to express his views on Wu Jinshi, Zhao Jiu quickly wrote Mizha again to Wu Ju Quduan and Li Yanxian, everything else is easy to say, don't let Li Xianggong interfere in the military, any of his documents on military movements are regarded as chaos.

However, the coexistence of civil and military affairs in the imperial examination is already a certainty, after the chaos, Yanjing City, which has been built for three years, ushered in a population migration climax for the first time, and all the inns are eager to be full, and there is an endless stream of students and martial arts students who come to Tokyo to take the exam.

This reflects the rationality of urban planning in urban defense planning, and many small farmhouse courtyards are not far from Yanjing Taixue and Wuxue, and the fang market is staggered. This time, many families packed up the empty wings and rented them to the students who came to the exam, and there were also oranges from rich and noble families, and directly hired cooks, short-term maids and helpers, which was very lively for a while, and the prices soared, which was more obvious than when Zhao Guan's family arrived to promote the growth of Yanjing's economy.

It is inevitable that the students who come to the exam get together, whether it is from Yanjing or Tokyo, to talk about current affairs and state affairs. As for the martial arts students, the focus of their mouths will always be Yue Xiaohou, who has made meritorious contributions this time.

The young man who is not satisfied with the weak crown, from the envoy team, is like no one in other countries, leading more than 1,000 people and almost destroying a country, this is a legend in the history books, and now it really happened in this dynasty, so that these young and strong, who are determined to serve the country in the army, how can they not be distracted?

After the Zhao official family heard about it, in line with the principle that a son-in-law should serve his father-in-law, he brought Yue Yun from Dengzhou to preside over the martial arts primary election.

In view of the actual situation of the Jianyan Dynasty, this time not only the students of the two martial arts are allowed to participate in the dance music, but also some low-level officers who operate can also participate as long as there is a first-level guarantee of the commander, and the number of admissions is much higher than that of the liberal arts jinshi.

As a result, Han Shizhong began to curse people in the left army of the imperial camp again, without him, the number of these people who participated in the martial arts was less than one-third of the former army. What made King Han Qin even more depressed was that his precious eldest son, who was over forty years old, only liked to read books and didn't like to practice martial arts, so he really let him beat him with a stick, and he was reluctant to face the risk of fighting with his wife again.

And the second son is only five years old, when will he be able to watch him come to Xuanwumen to be a martial champion.

In desperation, he had no choice but to stretch out his claws to Wang Shixiong and said: "You kid, you lost to Yue Yun back then, but this step fell, now look at how much it has fallen?" If you can't grasp such a good opportunity this time, don't go out and say that you brought it out. ”

That's right, 28-year-old Wang Shixiong also signed up for this martial arts examination, although it is said that with his military merits and combat effectiveness, he can be promoted normally.

But everything has to be said about the official emphasis on seeking truth from facts, Wang Shixiong said with a wry smile. "King Qin's love, I don't know how the kid is, but how many people take the Jinshi exam this time, this horse archery is naturally not afraid, but when it comes to military strategy, I may not be able to compare with everyone."

Although Han Shizhong has been reading for a few years, his essence has not changed, and he said disdainfully while holding the jade belt, "Lao Tzu didn't know ten big characters back then, so he didn't cut the Xixia horse with a knife and captured Fang La, a thief, in Jiangnan." It's a pity that it was wasted by the Naxin family...... Forget it, what are you going to do with this? Alas, the exam is to test some strategies for governing the army and the country, or you don't call it a jinshi, then don't you also know how to read? Wait for feelings, you kid is going for the champion, right? "Otherwise, what do you say has won everyone.

Han Shizhong, who was on the back of the tiger, immediately slapped Wang Shixiong, who was also lacking in the waist of the tiger and bear, on the shoulder, and said approvingly: "Okay, good, a man must have this ambition, and the country will definitely use soldiers in the future." If you are my pioneer general, you will indeed have a more prominent reputation. ”

To tell the truth, Yue Yun's success certainly has his talent and extraordinary ability, but if he wasn't Yue Fei's biological son and the concubine of the Zhao official family, he wouldn't have been able to win such a big strategic advantage.

Wang Shixiong's wife is not a princess, and he himself is not Han Shizhong's own son or godson.

But there is nothing to say about this, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, so a student who does not want to get a perfect score is naturally not a good student.

By the time the fire flowed in July, the autumn wind rose again, and the leaves on the land of Hebei were yellow, the first phase of the construction of the Tianjin seaport was finally completed, and the silt dredging of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal also achieved the expected effect - at least it could ensure the grain transportation route to Yanjing.

The Zhao official family officially issued an order to merge Wuqing and the surrounding three counties into Tianjin Prefecture, Yue Tuo deservedly became the first governor of Tianjin, Li Bao's retired commander Cui Bangbi was the overall leader, and Shi Quan, who was born in the Jiangnan Pavilion, also became a maritime record - more importantly, Zhao Guan's family was a talker, and his daughter and son-in-law's family were pardoned and returned to their hometown, but the next generation can no longer be officials. Xue Qiang is very grateful for this, and he can't wait to mold a golden body for his father-in-law and the official family.

"Heaven Descends"

He presided over the first voyage since the opening of the port - of course, because of the monsoon, this voyage was also experimental.

However, for Yue Fan, the completion of this down-to-earth investment promotion and construction work finally allowed him to get rid of the label of Yue Fei's younger brother, and he no longer needed to bear huge psychological pressure.

But the joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same, and at the same moment, the psychological pressure of others is a little greater. The daimyo Zhizhou Lu Wei had just beaten his nephew, and before he could relieve his anger, he said, "Shaft, do you know that you are wrong?" ”

"You knows wrong, I shouldn't anger my uncle." Lu You, who had a blue nose and swollen eyes, replied very correctly, although he was kneeling at the moment.

"What do you say about the imperial examination?" Lu Wei became angry when he saw this kid's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance.

"Lu You has already thought about it, I am going to take the martial arts examination. If my uncle is still angry, he can beat me again. ”

Lu Wei simply felt that he couldn't communicate with this nephew, who had been known as a prodigy since he was a child. Tell me, it's a peaceful era now, what are you doing to be a warrior? Is it bad to study hard and be an official? What's more, you're also a piece of material!

Isn't it just that your marriage has had some twists and turns, and your sister-in-law offended the parents of your little fiancée Tang Wan, and the two families divorced?

How old are you, a good man is ambitious in all directions, and when he becomes famous in the future, why worry about not having a good wife? For this reason, you have to change your mind!

"From today onwards, you are not allowed to leave the mansion for a single step, I can't control you, so I will write to your father and ask him to reason with you." This is Lu Mi's last stubbornness.

But Lu Wei soon found that he was doing it to himself, why should I learn fencing from you? This baby actually took advantage of people's unpreparedness in the middle of the night and ran away.

The second is to ask for tips and monthly passes.
