Early Morning 45 of the Empire: Convergence

There was a long queue at the entrance of the Qixia School Palace, Lin Xu glanced at Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu did not speak, but nodded silently.

Lin Xu and the three of them also lined up with everyone according to the sequence, and now they have not officially entered the school palace, according to Lin Xu's reasoning, after everyone will enter, they should be waiting in the school palace.

These people in Confucianism attach the most importance to hospitality, and I heard Boss Li say that there is a hall in the school palace where all parents and accompanying people can wait and rest.

When the three of them arrived, they found that a long line had formed, which indicated that someone had rushed over in advance.

Lin Xu and the three were not the first to arrive, but they were not the last to arrive, when queuing, Lin Xu casually glanced behind and found that there were still carriages coming behind him, as well as many candidates who were getting off.

Suddenly there was a sound of horses running in everyone's ears, and several white horses appeared in everyone's eyes, and in the process of running, the horses trampled the ground and kicked up bursts of dust.

After a while, several handsome white horses with eight majestic faces came to the gate of the school palace, and a man wearing mink wool walked down from the carriage, with a few jade pendants on his body, and a confident smile on his face.

"That's the Cao family's carriage!"

Exclamations were heard in the long queue.

Another rhetorical question came from the crowd, "Is it the Cao family from Hengshan County?"

"Look at this person's dress, it's not them or who!"

Not far from Lin Xu's front, a person exclaimed.

The Cao family of Hengshan County, one of the richest families in the Qin State, the ancestors of the Cao family made a very far-reaching investment during the Warring States Period, which can be described as a big gamble, and invested their lives in the Qin State.

Even a fool can guess the status of the Cao family now.

After the unification of the Qin State, some private businesses were handed over to the Cao family, and since then the Cao family has become an official and businessman of the Qin State from an unknown family in the Six Kingdoms.

Money can make ghosts grind, and no one dares to underestimate the power of money.

Money can be channeled.

After the son of the Cao family came, he frowned slightly when he saw the long dragon-like line, but he didn't say anything, but lined up like ordinary people, just kept a distance from the people in front of him, and the people behind him kept a distance from the son of the Cao family.

The son of the Cao family didn't say a word from beginning to end, and closed his eyes after lining up.

Another sound came, and this time it was not the horses, but several giant bulls, which were covered in leather armor.

Every time the hoof hits the ground, the sound of stepping on the ground can make a loud noise.

Another voice came from the crowd, "This is a low-level demon beast, this is the vine armor giant bull of the Zhang family in Jibei County." ”

The Zhang family of Jibei County, one of the oldest families in the Qin State, the first generation of patriarchs was a strong man who followed the Grand Duke of Qin to establish the Qin State, and each generation had a big man who was an official in the court.

In the mainland, the most awe-inspiring thing is not the strong force, nor the monstrous power, but the history, these families have accompanied the growth of successive Qin monarchs and witnessed the big and small events of the Qin State.

No one can guarantee that those big people who participated in the great events of the Qin State in the past have died.

.........

"Oh my God, what the hell is going on this time, are we going to compete with these characters?"

"I'm afraid that's not all, I heard that there are descendants of the great general in front. ”

"Yes, I heard that the hussar general will also appear this time, I don't know if it is to cheer for the disciples in the family. ”

............

Xiao Wu's hands trembled slightly, and his face was a little unsightly.

All this was in Lin Xu's eyes, Lin Xu clapped his hand on Xiao Wu's shoulder, pinched it, and relaxed Xiao Wu's spirit: "Don't worry, it's okay! ”

"Okay, Mr. Lin. ”

Xiao Wu relaxed his spirit and said slowly, staring at the Qi Xia Xue Palace in front of him, blazing with energy.

The wait was not very long, and the dragon-like procession began to move, and it was obvious that someone had already entered the school palace in front.

At the same time, several young people dressed in white walked towards the team, and there was a person at every distance, their goal was clear, the person who maintained order in the school palace.

Xiao Wu looked at these young people in white with envy, and Lin Xu could probably guess who they were.

This should be the disciple of the previous Qixia School Palace, and now he plays the role of a volunteer at the beginning of the school year, maintaining order and helping to answer, which is the "senior sister" in the mouth of the junior.

In these people, Lin Xu felt a kind of look, it was the taste of youth!

Young and fearless!

"Ding!"

The sound of the bronze bell being struck from inside the school palace was the first call for the entrance examination of the school palace.

The crowd was quiet for a while, and hundreds of students who were close to the door rushed out under the command of the seniors, walked through the flat road under the main building of the Qixia School Palace, and walked towards the courtyard.

After entering, there is another scene, a cluster of pavilions and gardens are all in the shade of towering ancient trees, perhaps the rendering of sage poetry and books, and even the palace pavilion is also contaminated with the charm of quiet and elegant.

The vermilion gate is open, the corridor is tortuous, and the school palace building is the center, forming a huge building complex that is scattered and complements each other.

The candidates and their entourage were taken to a lawn, this lawn is huge, when Lin Xu and Xiao Wu walked in, they found that it was already full of people, and there were seats placed around it, Lin Xu and the three of them also sat in a corner arranged by a senior, the position was not bad, and they could see the position of the podium not far away.

When the candidates were seated, the audience was silent, quietly waiting for some characters.

Oh, the two just now, the boy surnamed Cao and the man surnamed Zhang, had already sat in the front row, Lin Xu looked around and saw the two of them.

In this empire where force prevailed, the aristocracy still had some privileges, and it was impossible for everyone to be equal, and the same was true for Confucianism.

After Lin Xu looked at it, he stopped looking at it, and there were some things that he couldn't say clearly.

A middle-aged man in black heavy armor walked to the back of the podium and quickly sat down, but after he sat down, the candidates in the audience were in a mess, and under the persuasion of the students of the school palace, the noise slowly stopped, but there were still a few voices below.

"Hussar General!"

"I didn't expect the hussar general to come back from the south. ”

"It seems that the fighting in the south has stopped, and the Huns in the south will have to cease for a while. ”

"I don't think so, these wolf cubs can only remember if they hurt them hard!"

............

The Huns, a nomadic people in the south of the empire, believed in immortality, worshiped the god Kunlun, and since they did not establish their own city-state, they divided their own sphere of power along with the grazing of cattle and sheep.

When the Seven Kingdoms were not unified, they often harassed the six eastern countries with arson, and some Huns often came to the hinterland of the mainland to practice the exercises.

The martial arts of the Huns are different from the cultivation methods of the original Seven Kingdoms, and the cultivation of the Huns is often based on the blood of the priests, and every time the Huns enter the Seven Kingdoms to cultivate, there must be a river of blood.

Therefore, the Huns' exercises are also regarded as magic exercises.

Decades ago, the high-level leaders of the Seven Kingdoms made a rare unanimous decision that as long as the Huns infiltrated the mainland to practice magic skills, the Seven Kingdoms would be strangled together.

This did discourage some low-level Huns from retreating, but when Qin was at war with the Six Eastern Kingdoms, some Hun monks took advantage of the fact that the Seven Kingdoms had no time to look eastward and set off massacres in some border areas, slaughtering some unarmed ordinary people.

After the unification of Qin, His Majesty the Emperor was furious, and despite the just-concluded War of the Seven Kingdoms, he fought several unprecedented battles with the Huns in the south, and the early stage of the war was very difficult.

But when the military headquarters was completely free, the army swarmed into the south, and after the end of the Seven Kingdoms War, it was the largest national war.

As expected, the Huns who fought were unable to form an army.

But the nomadic nature of the Huns made it impossible for them to build their own cities.

After many years of secretly recovering, licking his wounds privately, and waiting for the right time to bite the empire fiercely, the emperor ordered to build border defenses at all costs and establish elite troops in the south to resist the attack of the Huns.

"Is the war raging in the South?"

Lin Xu asked in a puzzled voice to the shopkeeper, he also saw the records of the southern Huns when he rejected the northern city, but it was many years ago, and Lin Xu had always been ignorant of the current battle between Qin and Huns.

"I don't know how to describe it, the imperial army always follows the emperor's gaze, His Majesty's gaze goes, the imperial army is invincible, no one is the opponent of the Great Qin army, but these Huns are too easy to resurge. ”

The shopkeeper's low voice, as an old man in Xianyang, still knows a lot about some situations.

"Oh!"

Lin Xu nodded understandingly, isn't this the same nature as chronic rhinitis?

Another person walked up to the stage, under his thin body, dressed in meticulous floral clothes, and his waist was naturally slightly bent.

The fingers overlapping in front of him were holding a slight orchid finger, and looking at the movements, Lin Xu could also guess who this was.

This man knew that his identity could not sit in a conspicuous place, so he found a remote place to sit on the lecture table.

After a while, an old man walked over, looking at the brown robe, bright eyes, a few long beards under the corners of his mouth, and looking extraordinarily energetic, the old man must have been a beautiful man when he was young.

As soon as he came to the stage, the hussar general and the big man from the palace also stood up and saluted.

The old man did not salute, but nodded with a smile and came to the center of the field: "Welcome all candidates and parents to take out of their busy schedules to Qixia School Palace."

I am the presiding officer today, I used to preside over some small things in the court, and now after I retire, I am responsible for the trivial affairs of the Qixia School Palace, and some people in the court call me Qi Lao, you can also call me so. ”

Lin Xu said to the shopkeeper: "Sure enough, the knowledgeable and respected old man is called Qi Lao, and the incapable one is called Lao Qi, isn't it, Lao He." ”
