Chapter 43: Three Rounds of Testing

Xie An glanced at the gift, ordered the servant to accept the gift, and the servants on both sides retreated after handing over the gifts.

Xie An smiled: "Nephew Zhang Xian is too polite!" If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. ”

Zhang Xuan nodded in greeting, introduced Wang Zhen standing in the hall to Xie An, and said: "This little brother's name is Wang Zhen, he is a young hero, and he was once fortunate to have a relationship with Xie Daoyun, the niece of the Lord Shizhong, and since then he has been in love and misses him day and night. Today, Zhang Xuan was entrusted by the little brother to come to the little brother to talk about the matchmaker, I wonder if the lord agrees to this family business? ”

Xie An stroked his beard and looked at Wang Qian, and said with a smile: "It's easy to say!" Say! ”

Xie An asked Wang Qian: "Wang Qian, where are you from?" Who else is in the family? ”

Wang Zhen bowed his head and saluted, and said: "Back to my lord's words, I am from Hua County, Jian'an County, my parents died early, and now I am alone. ”

Wang Zhen really has nothing, Xie An couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Then you can talk?" ”

Wang Zhen bowed his head again and saluted, and said, "My lord, I really don't know anything about Qing Talk. ”

Zhang Xuan felt that Wang Zhen had answered too sincerely, and he had been deducting Xie An's impression of him, so he helped: "Today is a troubled time, with continuous wars and thieves, so Wang Zhen abandoned literature and martial arts, one is to defend himself, and the other is to serve the country in the future." Lord Shizhong, don't look at Wang Zhen's young age, but his skills are very good! In addition, Wang Zhen's chess skills are amazing, and he has defeated national players! What Zhang Xuan said is all the truth, and there is no lie. ”

Xie An was secretly surprised, and suddenly became interested in Wang Qian, and said: "In other words, Wang Zhen is not only strong in martial arts, but also extraordinary in thinking about the layout?" ”

Zhang Xuan smiled: "Exactly! ”

Xie An then said to Wang Qian: "Wang Qian, since Zhang Xian's nephew has promoted you so much, how about I test you in three games?" If you can win two out of three games, I won't bother with my niece's marriage, and she will be in charge. As to whether she will choose you as her husband, I have no guarantees. Do you dare to take a gamble? ”

Wang Zhen hugged his fists and said: "Lord Hui, I am willing to gamble!" ”

Xie An said: "Okay! Without further ado, please come with me to the martial arts arena. ”

Everyone followed Xie An out of the hall.

Wang Zhen walked to the maid who was standing outside the hall, handed her a letter and a tael of silver, and whispered: "Trouble the girl to send this letter to Miss Xie Daoyun, there is a lot of work!" ”

Yahuan smiled: "Childe, please rest assured!" I'll definitely hand it over to Miss. ”

It turned out that this girl ring was Xie Daoyun's personal girl ring Xiao Ling. Xie Daoyun Bingxue is smart, she knows that Zhang Xuan is Zhang Tongyun's brother, and when she heard that Zhang Xuan came to visit today, she already knew that Wang Zhen was coming to propose marriage today, so she sent Xiaoling to pretend to be an ordinary maid to the side hall to inquire about the news. Xiao Ling returned to Xie Daoyun's boudoir and handed the letter to Xie Daoyun along with a tael of silver.

Xie Daoyun returned the silver to Xiao Ling, opened the letter, and there were three words inside: "I'm here!" Wang Zhen did what he said, Xie Daoyun smiled slightly, and his heart was sweeter than eating honey.

Xie Daoyun asked, "Xiao Ling, what's going on outside now?" ”

Xiao Ling said: "Miss, the master took them to the martial arts arena." The old man said that he would test Wang Gongzi for three games, and if Wang Gongzi could win two games from the three games, he would no longer ask about the marriage of the young lady, and the young lady would make her own decisions. ”

Xie Daoyun nodded and said, "Xiao Ling, you hurry up and inquire, and tell me the content and results of each exam." ”

Xiao Ling said: "Okay, Miss! ”

Xie An led everyone to the martial arts arena and ordered the servants to summon a military attache on duty in the palace. The military attache immediately arrived, and Xie An arranged for the military attache and Wang Zhen to take weapons and have a simulated battlefield battle, but they were not allowed to hurt their lives.

Zhang Xuan hurriedly dissuaded: "Lord Shizhong, it is inevitable that there will be injuries when you use a knife or a gun. It's a happy event to propose, how wrong it is to see the blood, right? ”

Xie An asked the military attache and Wang Qian: "What do you two think?" ”

The military attache said: "Xia Guan is a martial artist, he only acts according to orders, where will there be opinions!" Besides, bloody battles on the battlefield are what I often do, so why be afraid? ”

Xie An smiled and said, "Okay! You can say that again! Wang, it's too late for you to regret it now. ”

Wang Zhen saluted and said: "My lord, since I have already agreed to accept the third round of the adult examination, I will definitely not back down halfway!" No matter how brave this general is, Wang Zhen is determined to fight him to the end. ”

Xie An said: "Okay, since both sides agree. So, pick your weapons! ”

The military attache ordered his subordinates to send a silver spear, and Wang Zhen took out the dagger at his waist.

The military attache said: "If you use a dagger, I won't be able to win." I'll have someone take you to the arsenal to pick up your weapons. ”

Wang Zhen hugged his fists and said: "The general has a good intention, Wang Zhen thanked him first!" It's just that I practice fist and foot kung fu, I don't know how to use weapons, and the dagger is lightweight, which doesn't affect the fist and foot movements, which is just right for me. On the contrary, the spear used by the general is naturally infinitely powerful and invincible in horse warfare, but it is still longer in foot combat after all, and it is not easy to use. Why don't you change the general to a weapon that is more suitable for foot combat! ”

The military attache had good intentions, but he didn't want to be cared for, his self-esteem was damaged, and he shouted: "I am as good as a dragon, am I still afraid that your little dagger will not be successful?" ”

After speaking, the military attache set up his posture and prepared to face the battle. Wang Zhen held a scabbard in his left hand and a dagger in his right hand.

Xie An looked at the two of them left and right, and ordered: "The competition begins!" ”

Xie An's voice fell, and the military attache immediately shook the body of the gun and stabbed it. Sure enough, the spear was like a dragon, and the speed was extremely fast, but it was a pity that it was two points slower than the sword speed of Qingxu.

Wang Zhen deeply realized the terrible opponent's quick moves in the contest with Qingxu, so he has been practicing his waist horse and footwork in the next game, and strives to make himself more flexible and changeable. His philosophy is that only by making yourself invincible can you find a way to defeat the enemy. This is also the reason why he insists on using the dagger as a weapon, flexibility is his advantage, retreat can dodge to protect himself, and advance can kill with one hit.

Wang Zhen dodged the spear stabbing sideways, and was about to fight back at close range, when the military attache turned around and swept the spear to Wang Zhi's ribs, the sweeping speed was extremely fast and powerful, and Wang Zhen had to avoid its edge first, stop getting close, and squatting down to avoid the sweep.

The military attache didn't say big things, and his marksmanship was really superb. When attacking, it is like a dragon going out to sea and a tiger descending from the mountain, which is fierce and abnormal; When defending, the silver spear danced vigorously and without leaking, as if adding a golden bell jar to himself.

Wang Zhen tried several times but couldn't find a chance to get close, so he changed his strategy and thought: Since he can't find an opportunity, let's create one.

After Wang Zhen dodged the tip of the spear, his figure immediately stopped. The military attache used his strength to move, and his physical consumption was more than ten times that of Wang Qian, and he knew that he couldn't last long, and when he saw Wang Zhen avoid his attack, he suddenly stopped, thinking it was an opportunity.

The military attache was eager to win, and wanted to win with one move, so he grabbed the tail of the gun with both hands and used all his strength to slash down, and the momentum of the next split was thunderous as if he wanted to split Wang Zhen in half.
