"Everyone goes back to their carriages, and the next thing is to be announced by the examiner", all the scholars stood on the side of the car with apprehension, and as Shaoyuan read out the results, many people actually knew in their hearts, and they also knew whether they were eliminated or not. The original team of more than 40 people suddenly decreased by as many as 13 people. And with the announcement of the rankings, a person who was not originally on the odds list came out, that is, Ou Hao, who was discussed by Gao Zheng and them before. Much higher than the scores of others, the archers presented the arrow target, Shao Yuan took a closer look, and it was actually all the targets, and the arrows were not missing. can achieve this kind of record, in his cognition, he should also have the kind of archery skills that are highly favored.

Shao Yuan looked at Gao Pet quietly, Gao Pet shook his head gently, indicating that nothing was found, Shao Yuan nodded, "Next, the next level of the competition will be selected according to the results, and then there is the chief examiner of the fourth level of the riding test, Gao Sima!"

Gao Zheng bowed his hand, Shao Yuan bowed to Gao Zheng, and then returned to the position, only to see Gao Zheng slowly walk to their stage, "There are forty good horses here, with different temperaments, those with high grades can choose their favorite horses first, once selected, they can not be changed, you have half an hour to get acquainted with you and prepare to be with your comrades." You choose the horse first, and then tell you that it is the exam."

Only then did everyone suddenly realize that the role of the original ranking was to choose horses, and the two levels were connected, which turned out to be so, but in this way, it was actually blatant favoritism. Will the ministers have no opinion? The answer is no, and no one feels the slightest bit wrong at the moment, as if they are waiting for Gao Zheng to complete this big hole.

Shaoyuan leaned over to Gao Pet and asked, "Ah Pet, Uncle Shi has figured out how to solve the exam?"

Gao Chong shrugged helplessly, "Don't worry, Shaoyuan, my father must have thought about this matter, I think this is the first, don't take it, the gun will shoot the first bird."

Shaoyuan's painting style changed: "Do you think it is possible for someone to do it?"

"It's hard to say, it's a good opportunity, the goal is big, and it's concentrated, and there is the applause of the audience, it's not difficult to do anything," Gao Pet analyzed, "If you don't shoot at the level, then the ride will be their last chance."

"Can we sneak out and watch?" asked Shaoyuan

"Shaoyuan, this is the chief examiner, if you go out like this, it will be a big crime of bullying the king, sit down obediently, but you, who do you think has a higher chance?" Gao Zhong pointed to the group of people below.

"I'll take a look, look at it now, that broken little prince has a very high chance, that is, Liu Yuyi has a high chance, and his civil and military background is good, although he is not as strong as the children of the martial arts, but the cultural accomplishment of the Chinese original scholars is only high, not low, it seems that this time I took the recommendation crookedly" Shaoyuan said with satisfaction with this 'protégé'.

"Now it seems that there is indeed an opportunity, and he is low-key, quiet, and has no complex background strength" Gao Chong also nodded, "It's a pity that there is another top three"

"Ning Caichen?" Shao Yuan asked rhetorically, "I'll see, eh, that kid is eliminated?"

"Well, it's Shaoyuan's shooting pass that was brushed down, he is a person in the rivers and lakes, how can he compare to this group of people who are exposed to party disputes, and it is only a matter of time before he loses" Gao Zhong saw it very thoroughly.

"That top three list, it's the words of the heart, have you found anything, pet?" Shaoyuan also nodded, the list that caused a small storm, no matter what, you have to find out the people behind the scenes.

"When the matter here is over, go back to the person behind the scenes" Gao Chong shook his head helplessly, "It's also a lot of courage to borrow our hands to kill people"

The process of selecting horses is very smooth, all the horses are not as different as Gao Zheng said, each one is very docile, but everyone is not happy, because before knowing the rules of the race, the luck psychology should not be there.

Gao Zheng looked at the horses that everyone had already selected, and revealed an old scheming answer: "This level is very simple, that is, ride a horse around the route of the suitable chariot for three laps, the rules of promotion and elimination are not simply ranking, you not only have to compare with others, but also with yourself." You just need to run the same place as you did in the last round, or be higher than the last time. For example, if Chen Gongzi was ranked 20th in the last round, this time, he will advance to the next round as long as he runs to the top 20 or the top 20."

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar, especially the martial arts sons who were ranked very high in the last round, this is a big bad thing, all the martial arts sons are also frowning, most of them are running before fifteen, but this time it is riding, although it still has its own advantages over the literati, but if it is combined with the previous part, everything has changed.

The ministers also nodded, Gao Zheng's rule can be said to be the most fair, or it is already a bit preferential to the literati, because it is entirely possible for the literati to obtain a good ranking relatively easily by choosing a good horse.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, "Not a drop of water leaks, this competition is a bit interesting, senior brother." ”

At this moment, the focus of the audience is on Ou Hao, the person who was almost praised to the altar in the last round, and in the face of Gao Zheng's rules in this round, he has become the person who is most likely to be eliminated. Originally, he was still smiling a little and chose a good horse, but at this moment he was also looking at Gao Zheng resentfully.

"Then Ou Hao's eyes are so strange, why is this happening?" Shao Yuan noticed that look, obviously unfriendly.

"That person's name is Ou Hao, the same year as my second brother, but unfortunately, it was their Ou family who fought foreigners in the north back then, and it was their family that lost, and our Gao family came back from the Eastern Front to turn the tide. The few troops in northern Xinjiang that are not related to the Gao family army are their Ou family, but now the second brother has taken over their defense area, so what will be the fate of the Ou family next, in fact, it is likely to depend on this competition, it seems that their luck is not good" Gao Zhong smiled helplessly.

"Do you have any objections?" Gao Zheng asked loudly, "If there is no objection, please each of you get on your horse, when the gong is remembered, it is the beginning of the order, all sons, please get on the horse!"

Suddenly, a voice came in, and at first glance, it was Ou Hao, "Dare to ask Lord Sima, can you carry a wooden weapon?"

Gao Zheng frowned and shook his head, "No! The two horses are galloping, the danger is abnormal, this is not a life-and-death battle, why do you need weapons?"

Ou Hao's brows trembled and he retreated, but he clenched the reins of his horse and seemed to be ready for something.
