The heroic posture of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince galloping on his horse made the officials watching the ceremony on the city tower irrepressibly boil, as if they saw the two emperors of the ancestors and the emperor galloping on the horses on the portrait.

The officer of the military department stepped forward and sang three times: "Hit the bull's eye!" ”

The cheers of the bullseye were even more intense, and even the emperor stood up, walked to the battlements, and looked at the school field under the city in disbelief. In the school field, the prince was leading his army towards the city and shouting long live, he knew that Rong He was good at riding and shooting, but he didn't know how good it was.

Duke Lu Guogong was almost in tears, and bowed to the ground: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, the prince is heroic and virtuous, and the great prosperity is expected!" ”

All the officials bowed down together, and the mountain shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live my emperor." ”

The crown prince performed well, and the emperor was naturally and honored, and the gloom in his heart was swept away, and he forced a smile and said with a strained face: "Let's be even." ”

The people got up and looked down on the city, for the shooting continued.

The most nervous is Shen Yu, he is not worried about Huai'an's riding skills, but about the moon horse that is not too emotionally unstable, but Huai'an's favorite thing is the moon, and he has to ride it every time he goes out.

Huai'an wore a moon-white trolling today, covered with placket armor, and wore a long-tasseled wine cup helmet on his head, riding on a white horse, like a flash of white light. After galloping a few steps, I saw him take off the reins with both hands, take out a feather arrow from the quiver, and shoot it without hesitation, followed by the second arrow, the third arrow, and the three arrows in a line at the bull's-eye.

"Beautiful!" Lu Guogong couldn't help but start to explain again.

The sound of drums sounded, and there were three more singing of the newspaper, and the officials of Honglu Temple raised a red flag, a white flag, and a green flag, representing an arrow hitting the bull's-eye, an arrow to the east, and an arrow to the west.

After the crowd cheered, there was a whisper: "Who is that?" Is it a general in the prince's personal guard? Too young, too. ”

The emperor's smile could hardly be hidden, and when he looked back and saw Shen Yuzheng looking at his nose and nose, and did not say anything to explain, he knew that he was low-key and did not want to be in the limelight.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Huai'an's □□'s mount suddenly lost control, and the owner on his back writhed excitedly.

The emperor frowned slightly, and was worried that the tall white horse was frightened, so he threw Huai'an off the horse. Who knew that it was actually kicking exaggeratedly to the regular drum beat, as if twisting the big Yangge, proudly holding the horse's head high, and swaggering all the way back to the military formation in the sound of cheers and praise.

The pro-soldiers under the city were all laughing, and the officials in the city couldn't help but laugh out loud: "This horse is really interesting." ”

The old man of Luguo was sharp-eyed, and immediately pointed out: "Shen Ge Lao, isn't this Linglang Shen Huai'an?" ”

Shen Yu smiled lightly and said nothing, as if he had long been accustomed to his conspicuous son.

Everyone sighed again, who doesn't know Shen Huai'an, Shen Ge's youngest son, Xie Xijiu's son-in-law, the prince's companion, the legendary father of sweet potatoes, the founder of Yingchun melon, and the old nemesis of Xiaoge...... It's just that I didn't expect that the Shen family's scholarly family and the cultivated son of the bow horse were so skilled.

"The afterlife is terrible, the afterlife is terrible!" Lu Guogong sighed.

Subsequently, the guards of the East Palace urged the horses out in turn, vigorous and heroic, and the cheers came one after another, sweeping away the embarrassing and gloomy atmosphere.

"You didn't mean to let me, did you?" Rong He asked.

Huai'an rolled his eyes: "Am I that kind of person?" ”

"It's really not ......" Rong He said: "Hey, don't dangle around, I'm dizzy." ”

"I don't even count if I say it!" Huai'an was carried by the moon, kicking back and forth, as if every cheer and praise belonged to it, Huai'an couldn't do anything about it, fortunately he was thick-skinned enough, otherwise he would have to die in front of everyone.

When the battle of the soldiers was over, the rumbling drums had stopped, and the ears suddenly became quiet, the people's minds would be unusually awake, so the emperor had not yet been carried away by the praise.

"When I think back to my ancestors, there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Beijing camp, and although they are not enough now, they can still get □□ million people. However, now, the soldiers of the Beijing camp are arrogant and lazy, the laws and regulations are difficult to implement, and the so-called Spring and Autumn Drill has existed in name only. ”

There was silence on the towers, and the officials bowed their heads to listen to the hadith.

"Our determination to prepare for military force and rectify the situation is seen by all. The Cabinet intends that from this year onwards, every year or in the winter of the year, a large parade will be held, and I will personally visit the school to read, and those who are skilled will be rewarded respectively, and those who are old and weak will be eliminated. The Emperor said.

Shen Yu said: "The minister obeys the order." ”

The emperor bowed his head and said: "The military attache is lazy to this point, I am very worried, today I will compare the results, tomorrow I will report to me, lazy and unbearable, I will severely punish, or punish the demotion or dethrone the elimination, the military department and the five military governors will draw up a list of articles." ”

Lu Guo is fair: "The ministers obey the order." ”

As for the prince's personal guards who performed very well this time, they were mainly rewarded with silver, although the court was eager to employ people, but the emperor still had a little selfishness, and wanted to suppress these young people and leave them for the prince to promote in the future.

"Zhou Yue, after being promoted, the military capital governor's mansion is the left governor, and the prince is the prince."

"Shen Huai'an......" The emperor's voice trembled slightly, as if he was trying his best to hold back a smile. Because the boy in white under the city had already turned over from his horse, jumping around with his hands in his hands, like a monkey in a hurry to relieve himself.

Everyone in the city secretly regretted why there was a monkey's soul under such a handsome skin, but this guy has already made a marriage, and there is no need for everyone here to be entangled.

I only heard the emperor say again: "Shooting is the six arts, but now people are dedicated to studying the eight shares, abandoning martial arts, although Shen Jiansheng is weak in scholarly literature, brave and strategic, skilled in bow and horse, he is really a model for all beings, and he is given a plaque of 'both civil and military', and he is given to wear a loyal and quiet crown uniform, and he is the same as the six products." ”

Deng Shi attracted an envious inhalation, most of the children of these families seem to be well-behaved and knowledgeable, but in fact they are waiting for the grace of their parents and ancestors, Shen Huai'an looks stubborn, he is still in school at a young age, and he has been given a plaque by the emperor himself.

If Huai'an hears this, he will definitely scoff at it, what is so strange about the plaque, he has more than a dozen pieces, all of which are written by the emperor's imperial pen, and they are hung in his major stores.

Zhongjing crown clothes are still a little interesting, that is the official Yanju clothes, given by the emperor, encouraging hundreds of officials to think about loyalty, home banquets and out to participate in the banquet can be worn, dad has, the eldest brother went to Quanzhou before taking office, he also gave a body, and now he also has it.

The wind was howling outside, Huai'an was shivering with cold at the moment, and when he returned to the camp, his coat was actually gone, and several pro-sergeants rummaged up and down, found a seat of felt to wrap him, and went to look for hot water.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the dynasty gave preferential treatment to scholars, and whose civil officials had to make a big effort in the ice and snow!

Emperor Xuan Prince went to the city to reply, and Rong He said, "Why don't you wear my clothes first?" ”

"I'm not willing to die if you don't pit me, are you?!" Huai'an kicked into the air, immediately retracting that leg into the felt, and said as he shivered, "Don't forget what we discussed. ”

Rong He reassured him, turned around and left the tent and climbed the tower.

As soon as the prince left, Shen Yu ordered the chief to send a thick velope into the camp tent.

Huai'an didn't know if it was because of the cold or because he was moved, so he swooped and said, "Brother is the worst thing, I have to kiss my father!" ”

The emperor's complexion was much better at this time, but he was still a little worried, and he was not as happy as Rong He imagined.

Rong He stepped forward to salute: "The son knocks to see his father." ”

The emperor waved his hand to make him flat: "Prince, have these pro-soldiers of yours only started training in the past two months?" ”

Rong He said: "Back to my father, no, most of them are security guards of the academy, and they have been trained by the two veteran officers who retired from the Shenji Battalion. ”

Security guard? Everyone looked at each other, what did that mean?

"To keep the party safe," Rong He said, "let them protect the safety of the academy." ”

Crowd: Doesn't sound particularly advanced.

"College Security...... There is such a skill. Chen Liang sighed.

The emperor nodded and said, "In any case, your performance today is really good, and you have made great contributions, anyway, what reward do you want?" ”

Rong He didn't think about it, and knelt on the ground: "Back to my father, don't reward my sons, my sons ask to set up a 'Jingshi Wubei School' in the northern suburbs, and hope that my father will approve it." ”

"Martial Arts Academy?"

Not only was the emperor surprised, but the ministers also began to talk to each other - I had never seen a school that taught scriptures and historical articles, but I had never heard of a martial arts school.

The emperor turned around and asked Shen Yu and Chen Liang, "Is there a precedent for this martial arts academy?" ”

Shen Yu said: "The previous dynasty first set up 'martial arts' to teach the art of war, strategy and martial arts, but for various reasons, it only ran for a few months and was hastily abolished. ”

The emperor bowed his head and asked Rong He again: "Has the prince understood it in advance?" ”

Rong He said: "Erchen has checked the "Huidian" and has some understanding. But the martial arts academy that Erchen said is different from the martial arts of the past. In the autumn of last year, Erchen was ordered to inspect the three major battalions, and as soon as he entered the Shenji Battalion, he could feel that the order was like a mountain, the military discipline was strict, and General Zhou's training method could really make thousands of troops and horses make one eye, one ear, and one heart, which Erchen had never seen in any military book. ”

The Emperor laughed to himself in his heart, as if you had read many books. However, in front of all the ministers, he still had to nod his head carefully to maintain the image of His Royal Highness the Prince.

Rong He said: "What makes Erchen even more amazed is that there is a primary school in the battalion, and every day after dinner, all the officers have to study in the academy, and then convey what they have learned to the junior soldiers, so that they can train the iron-like magic battalion." Rong He said: "Erchen hopes to establish a martial arts academy, referring to the curriculum of the Shenji Battalion, ordering the generals who were degraded during the Great Parade to enroll in the school and retake, and only when they meet the graduation standards can they be demoted and renewed, and the Jinshi in the martial arts will also be enrolled in the martial arts for one year, and the official position will be awarded one year later in combination with the graduation results." ”

The emperor's expression became more and more serious, and the civil and military officials also changed from indifference to solemnity.

"Lu Guogong." The emperor said, "What do you think of the prince's proposal?" ”

After the military parade, Duke Lu Guogong began to slip again: "The minister thinks that the prince's request is very important, and it is appropriate to order Jiuqing and Kedao to gather in the imperial court." ”

A ball was kicked back to the Emperor.

The emperor has long been accustomed to it, and he said without being angry: "After the prince goes back, he will prepare a letter and submit it to the cabinet, and let Zhou Yue write a copy of his own military training method, which will be discussed by the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and then decided by the court of each ministry." ”

"Obey."

Gonggong Chen stretched his voice and shouted: "The emperor drove back to the palace——"

The royal chariot carried the father and son and slowly left along the royal road.

Chapter 193

Rong He spent three all-nighters sorting out the rules for holding the "Martial Arts Academy" and handed them over to the emperor. About seven or eight days later, Zhou Yue's "Jingwei Soldier Selection and Training Strategy" was also sent to the emperor's desk, with more than 100,000 words.

The emperor was greatly shocked and said to Chen Gong: "Together with the prince's article Chen, it will be handed over to the Ministry of War for discussion." ”

Qianqing Palace, the East Warm Pavilion burned the earth dragon, warm as spring.

The emperor reclined on the couch, looking through a stack of articles in his hand, one by one, word by word, and had never taken the recitals so seriously. After reading one stack, he took out another stack from the couch table.

At this time, it was close to the end of the year, and Guozijian was on school leave.

Huai'an and Rong He waited on the side, making eye contact frequently, and then simply whispered to each other.

"Good manner, what is Your Majesty doing reading our article?"

"I've got nothing to do, and I'll make a judgment or two."

"What we write is also worth appreciating?"

"Don't be presumptuous. He has been watching it for so long, which shows that there is still something remarkable. ”

Huai'an shook his head helplessly—ordinary and confident.

The emperor raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them, looking at their doggy demeanor, and recalled that when they were in the Qi Palace, the two of them frequently caused trouble, which caused him and his masters a headache. Before you know it, everyone has lowered their expectations of these two problem children.

As the crown prince grew up, he didn't dare to hope that he could become a hard-working master of Zhongxing, and only begged him not to be a dim and confused king. As for Shen Huai'an...... Don't pry the prince as a weasel, thank goodness.

This time is different from the past, a big reading made him look at the two teenagers with admiration, coupled with the proposal of the "Martial Arts Academy", he suddenly felt that his previous views were biased, these are clearly two materials that can be made.

It is a good thing to be proficient in riding and shooting, but you should also pay attention to your studies, and you can't lose a big one because of a small one.

When the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, he will face the entire civil official group, and the emperor has no real talent in his belly, and it is very easy to be played by the top people selected by these imperial examination systems, and he has already experienced it.

Not to mention Huai'an, today's official body only relies on his father's shadow and special purpose, which are the most unvaluable in the officialdom, and even despised.

He read more than a dozen articles in one go, and in the end, he had to accept a reality - it was really unsatisfactory.

The emperor poked a sip of tea, rested his eyes, and then said with a straight face: "From today on, in addition to reading the palace newspaper and various government chapters, the prince will also have to put more effort into the history of the scriptures. I will re-appoint a lecturer to give you a lecture on the Four Books and the Tongjian every day, and you will not be absent from the sutra feast three times a month. ”

Rong He's mouth opened wide in astonishment, what a disaster from the sky!

Huai'an looked at him gloatingly, exaggeratedly learning his expression just now: Don't be presumptuous~
