Chapter 285: Lorida's Reversal
It is said that from ancient times to the present, when facing subordinates, as long as a leader can be unreasonable, and without exception, he is unreasonable.
Take the current Zhao Ji as an example, the leader loves to play, and if you shout to play with you, you must play, and you can't play well! But when the leader is playing, he suddenly remembers that he is down to business, and when he asks you, you have to reply that the leader has done a good job, and if you don't do it well, you will be punished!
Isn't that unreasonable?
Sun Fu was held accountable by Zhao Ji, feeling both aggrieved and frightened, and when he didn't know how to explain, he heard Tong Guan say: "Your Majesty is angry, the old slave doesn't know whether to say it or not." ”
Zhao Ji sneered: "I was about to ask you, you are a privy envoy, the capital is weaker than the border pass, you are also responsible for this matter, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to talk about it first." ”
Tong Guanxin said that I had expected you to find trouble with me a long time ago, and sure enough, I expected it, but he said: "The old slave thinks that it is too early to comment on the level of the border passes in the capital at this moment. ”
Zhao Ji said: "Where is it early? I remember clearly here, there are more than ten lifters at the border pass of the capital, and the best lifter in the capital is not as good as the worst lifter at the border pass, the gap is so big, is it not enough to make a conclusion?"
Tong Guan said: "Your Majesty said very much, but I dare to ask Your Majesty if you remember that the top people in the appropriate weightlifting are all the people in the capital." ”
Tong Guan is right, only Wu Song is not a lifter in the capital who is outstanding in the weightlifting exam just now, and the others start from the first place Bai Sheng, and go through Wei Xianda, Feng Nandu, Murong Qian, Zhanrenlong, Yi Xiao, Zhanfu, Zhanshou, Luo Lida, Shui Ningzhu, etc., all from the capital.
Among them, Murong Qian, who took the second place in a tie, and Dugu Hong, who had already left, both participated in the martial arts with the quota of Tianbo Yang Mansion, so Murong Qian can also be regarded as a son of the capital.
And even if Murong Qian and Wu Song are excluded, the remaining top dozen or so are all from the three major boxing gyms in the capital!
"Even so, so what? Weightlifting is not horseback archery!" Zhao Ji couldn't understand Tong Guan's meaning for a while.
Tong Guan said with a smile: "The old slave thinks that this way of learning martial arts is like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and it pays attention to an eclectic and similar approach. Just as Your Majesty, you are good at calligraphy, so painting is also the best in the world, how can these weightlifting winners be so poor in riding and archery?"
Tong Guan lost no time in making an accurate sycophant, and Zhao Ji was very useful.
To this day, Zhao Ji, who has created a thin gold body, is the second in the world in terms of conceited calligraphy, and no living calligrapher can enter his eyes except Cai Jing;
As for painting, he is even more conceited to be the first in the world, and even Zhang Zeduan, who painted the masterpiece "Qingming Riverside Picture", is just an art student he has instructed two sentences at the moment!
If you have to compare Zhang Zeduan and Zhao Ji, then the former is at most an intern in an art school, while the latter is the world's top painter, and there must be no one.
Tong Guan used Zhao Ji's calligraphy and painting as a metaphor for the connection between different types of martial arts, which just scratched the emperor's itch, and vividly explained his overall judgment of the candidates' results at this moment.
It was Cai Jingjing who nodded again and again, and praised: "Tong Shumi is really a good metaphor, I admire it so much!"
Cai Jing's words are also meaningful, and others don't know whether he is admiring Tong Guan's metaphorical technique or admiring Tong Guan's sycophant.
Zhao Ji was beaten by this beat, and naturally looked happy, and said: "In this way, we still need to wait for the follow-up results before we can evaluate it?"
Tong Guan said: "It's not the old slave's unpredictable prophet, the old slave predicts that the capital will definitely surpass the border pass, and Uncle Wei will definitely have a good performance, Your Majesty only needs to read it to know who is high and who is low." ”
Tong Guan's original intention in saying this sentence was to explain his previous assertion, but it was more intended to pave the way for Wei Xianda to finally win the first place in riding and archery. lest anyone suspect that Wei Xianda is cheating at that time.
As soon as these words came out, it was equivalent to an authoritative person designating the dark horse player in the competition, and the civil and military officials immediately became in a commotion, and they all thought: "In this way, isn't Uncle Wei Guo expected to win the martial champion? No, you have to buy a lottery ticket!"
Wang Mu's lottery ticket sales throughout Wuju, and he also has his sales outlets under the three stands.
In the past, when I was in a weightlifting competition, because no one knew the strength of the lifter, there were mostly wait-and-see people and few buyers.
Now as soon as Tong Guan, an authoritative person, spoke, these people immediately found the direction of investment, and they bet on buying Wei Xianda's second first subject, and some people directly bought Wei Xianda's top high school list, and some bought the trio of guessing champions, lists, and tanhua.
The news of the North Stand quickly spread to the east and west stands, and basically the people in the three stands were buying Wei Xianda to ride and shoot first.
Only Zhao Fujin and Master Li refused to go with the flow, they still wanted to buy Bai Sheng No. 1, but they couldn't borrow money anymore.
When they ran to the stands before, the emperor's anger was in everyone's eyes, who would dare to support them to go against Zhao Ji?
After asking a few people in a row, they answered that they had no money, and they understood.
But Concubine Wei Xian still had to fall into the well, and said in a strange way: "The money of the official family is not blown by the wind, and it is not the first to buy Bai Sheng?
As soon as Concubine Wei Xian's words fell, she heard a burst of exclamations erupting from the West Stand, I don't know what happened, Tong Guan hurriedly sent someone to ask, but the answer was that Di Lie took out another thousand taels of gold and bought Bai Shengyi.
At this time, Tong Guan was also confused, and thought: I said that Wei Xianda can produce good results, it is arranged, how sure can you Di Lie dare to bet on Bai Sheng's first?
Originally, Tong Guan wanted to unilaterally and secretly help Bai Sheng, so that Bai Sheng could win the second place, and finally asked the emperor if he would let Bai Sheng take this martial champion, but now he heard that Di Lie invested in Bai Sheng so much, but he didn't want to do it.
If Bai Sheng's results are not much different from Wei Xianda's, doesn't that prove that Di Lie's vision is higher than his Tong Guan?
Let's take a look at the situation first, and it's not too late to make a decision when Bai Sheng is riding a horse and stretching his bow. He was confident that with his vision, he could tell at a glance whether the level of riding and archery was high or low.
While the people on the stage analyzed and discussed buying lottery tickets, the exams in the audience did not pause for a moment, but were always going on.
As Tong Guan expected, with the development of the exam, the results of the capital Juzi gradually caught up.
The first to shoot a good result was the Fulu Suxi four masters of the Nanxia Boxing Gym, although the results of these four people could not be said to overwhelm all the previous test-takers, but they were already on par with the top few in the border pass.
And when the three masters of Wansheng Boxing Gym will participate in the test, the situation has been reversed!
What no one expected was that the two female generals, Lorida and Shui Ningzhu, had a unique talent in riding and archery, and even compared Feng Nandu's results.
Of course, they were all ten arrows, but they were also ten arrows, and each of their arrows was shot near the center of the lantern, especially Lorida, whose seventh arrow actually broke the wick, but it failed to shoot Qi Gen, so the candle was not fired.
Even so, they have already swept the top two of the current rankings, and none of the previous goalscorers have been able to match.
