"I really don't know, I still have to ask for advice," Wu Xiao said

"She is the sister of the current saint, Mrs. An Guo," Yu Jintang said

"It's her, I just think that this Qixia Society is not simple in all aspects, but I didn't expect it to be so big," Wu Xiao said

"What is this, this lady is not the only interesting thing to do? There are many rumors in the market, do you want me to tell you a few things" Ziyan said with a smile

"Don't interrupt" Zhu Zhesi stopped the purple smoke

"Ziyan is right, this lady's influence on the current saint should not be underestimated, the saint can successfully ascend the throne, I heard that she played a vital role, and the saint is also kind to her" Yu Jintang also smiled

"Yesterday I learned that three of you are already on the inspection list, but this is also a mixed bag," Yu Jintang continued

Several people were silent when they heard him say this, and Wu Xiao asked, "What is the inspection list?"

"Mrs. Anguo's establishment of the Qixia Society is actually to select and attract talents for his forces, and other societies are almost the same purpose, and the inspection list is actually the object of her inspection, which may be of some help to Dabi" Shen Ming said

Wu Xiao nodded, indicating that he understood. Several people didn't ask which three people it was, but in fact, they all knew it in their hearts, some words were inevitably embarrassing, just don't say it, a few people ate and drank until late at night, obviously Wu Xiao had been recognized by them, and several people were willing to accept him to join their circle

A few people said goodbye outside Mingyue Xuan, and Ziyan came out to see each other, and their reluctance to Zhu Zhesi was overflowing, and they were teased by Shen Ming

"Thank you Brother Xi for your help, help me recommend an errand, it's really a charcoal in the snow," Zhao Yi and the others said to Wu Xiao after the three left

"Brother Zhao is so polite to see the outside, you and I are familiar at first sight, this is just a gesture, there is no need to worry" Wu Xiao said

"Okay, Zhao remembered it in his heart, so you're welcome" Zhao Yi also took it away, and after speaking, he went to take care of himself.

After a period of time, Wu Xiao concentrated on preparing for the big competition at home, and Hongyu was still surprised when this little guy changed sex, and he was willing to work hard at home, so he specially made a lot of delicious food for Wu Xiao to treat.

Qixia Club opened two more clubs, Wu Xiao also went, and became more familiar with several other people, communicating with each other, but Dabi was approaching, and everyone went there temporarily, and they didn't have time to come out to eat and drink.

Wu Sheng came once, the last action of the Salt Gang played a role, recently all the forces have been divided a lot, and the government has also loosened a little, and the hall masters of each branch hall sighed why didn't the hall master of the Dragon and Tiger Hall come earlier, Wu Xiao politely sent him away.

But I don't want to be five days before the big competition, someone came to Shoushan Hall and sent an invitation, the name is the Spring Appreciation Meeting, but the address is the Champion General's Mansion, Wu Xiao roughly guessed who sent this invitation, it seems that it is necessary to go.

Early the next morning, Wu Xiao rode to the Champion General's Mansion, which was built on a wide street in Dongcheng, with wealthy mansions on both sides of the street.

From time to time, there were official sedan chairs coming and going, and Wu Xiao had to dismount and walk. From a distance, I saw that many people dismounted and got off the sedan chair in front of the General's Mansion, and there were several guards standing in front of the door, reviewing the pick-up.

Wu Xiao bolted the horse to the far wall for parking the horse, but stepped forward to cast the invitation, which guard chief checked it, looked at Wu Xiao twice, and let him in.

It's just that when a four-lift sedan chair stopped, the chief of the guard immediately stepped forward to greet the adult and the adult, and Wu Xiao didn't care, and walked straight in.

The general's mansion is very large, there is a special person to guide the way along the way, Wu Xiaocai successfully came to a courtyard in the mansion, the courtyard is full of osmanthus trees, at this time the flowers are blooming, and the courtyard is full of cinnamon fragrance.

There are a lot of desks in the courtyard, at this time there are already many people sitting in the courtyard drinking tea and chatting, Wu Xiao looked at it, there are many tributes to the same world as him, the difference is that most of them are accompanied by elders, looking at the demeanor of these elders, most of them are also officials in the court, or powerful people on one side.

It is really rare for a single young man like him to come in by himself, Wu Xiaozheng didn't know where to sit down, but he saw someone beckoning to him under a laurel tree in the distance, but it was Yu Jintang.

Wu Xiao hurriedly walked over, Yu Jintang got up to greet him, and pulled him to his table and sat down, there was still a middle-aged man sitting in front of the table who was closing his eyes and recuperating. Yu Jintang said to the man: "Uncle, this is the friend of Qixia's classmate Ximing that I mentioned to you."

The man opened his eyes and looked at Wu Xiao, then nodded to Wu Xiao, Wu Xiao hurriedly bowed and said, "Meet you, student Xiwu"

"Since you are friends in the hall, let's sit together, and you young people can also talk to each other."

Wu Xiao said yes, and sat down next to Yu Jintang, "Can anyone else come?" Wu Xiao asked Yu Jintang

"This is not clear, I don't know if Brother Zhao has received an invitation, Samming and Zhu Zhesi should not come" Yu Jintang said, from his tone, it seemed that he had already known about today's meeting

The two of them told each other some recent situations, and suddenly heard a loud voice: "The old man is late, forgive me", I saw that the old general in the Qixia Courtyard came in from the courtyard gate one day, followed by two generals who were fully armored.

Everyone got up to greet each other, the old general frequently clasped his fists on both sides to confess, and when he approached Wu Xiao's table, he smiled and nodded to Wu Xiao, and Wu Xiao hurriedly bowed in return.

The old general walked quickly to the main seat, he paused for a while and said: "The elders sitting here today are all pillars of the court, a party member, and the students are also the choice of this year, the star of tomorrow, the old man has just convened this spring appreciation meeting, I want you to take a look, I can still see the laurel tree in this courtyard."

Everyone echoed and praised, and the old general was modest.

"It just so happens that Mrs. Anguo also has this elegance, I want to appreciate the demeanor of this year's students, and Mrs. Anguo will be rewarded later."

Everyone is grateful for their gratitude, but they all understand in their hearts that this is the main topic.

"Today, all the students are gathered together, you might as well ask all the students to show what they have learned, regardless of style, write a beautiful article, and I will wait for a few elders to judge for the time being," the old general said with a smile, and others would not have any objections.

In the courtyard for a while, the pen and ink moved, the students either wrote poems, or fell into the endow, and the elders were noisy, touting each other, so they made acquaintances, chatted and drank.

An hour later, the students have turned in, after several elders collegiately, the election of three shows and one leader, the second son of Hebei Daotai "Gui Yuanfu" won the championship, the three shows are, Hexi Jiedu envoy Yu Cheng's son Yu Jintang, Zhengzhou Futai's son He Tian, Lingnan Weaving's son Yin Fei.

At this point, Wu Xiao had to sigh that Yu Jintang's family was strong, which was not comparable to ordinary students. Immediately congratulated him, Yu Jintang was modest, patted Wu Xiao's shoulder and said, "Don't make fun of me, you and I both know what's going on"

"Please sit still, Mrs. Anguo will summon you in a while" The old general paused for a while and continued: "You all know that the empire has been in turmoil in recent years, and the court has struggled to deal with it, so we are ashamed that we can't share the emperor's worries."

As soon as these words came out, many officials immediately knelt on the ground to the north, denouncing themselves for not being able to solve problems for the country and share worries for the emperor.

After a long time, everyone calmed down and got up one after another, and the dizzy ones were also pinched by their children and grandchildren and woke up.

"As far as I know, there are also those who have both civil and military skills among this year's students, and they are old and want to test the martial arts of the students here," the old general looked around in the courtyard after speaking.

"As the saying goes, there is no first, there is no second, the students here today do not have to be modest, those with martial arts skills can compete, but only compared to fists and feet, not than blades."

Many people in the audience breathed a sigh of relief and applauded. It was just the old general's next words, but it made everyone stunned

"The reward for this contest is the matching knife used by Mrs. Anguo's deceased husband," the old general said slowly.

The old guys present are all considering, the knife is small, the personnel is big, could it be that there is any meaning other than words?

Yu Jintang's uncle slowly turned his head to his nephew and said, "You are going to play later."

"But, uncle, entering the hall is only a shallow effort, how can you fight" Yu Jintang said urgently

"It's not important to fight, it's important to play, you have to learn better," said his uncle, looking at him

"What about this little brother Xi," the uncle asked as he looked at Wu Xiao

"Uncle Lao's fee, I'll take a look at it first," Wu Xiao said respectfully

At this time, many elders have expressed their desire to let their descendants play.

"Okay, let's make a ring system, and the last person standing is the first" The old general stood up and waved his hand, and the drum sounded next to him, which gave some courage to the students.

Everyone pulled out the tables and chairs, vacating the open space in the middle, and the two young generals were the judges, and the Spring Appreciation Ceremony was officially changed to the Spring Appreciation Martial Arts Meeting.

At the beginning, there were some beginner people on the field, and even some of them were scattered, and the two generals still had to pull people apart, and slowly there were some people with real martial arts on the field, and after playing for an hour, they became more and more exciting, as the old general said, there are not a few outstanding martial arts among the students.

At this time, the uncle made a look, Yu Jintang had to fight, his opponent was a burly young man, the two opened the fight, which young man has lost several people in a row, Yu Jintang is not weak, the two have fought more than 20 rounds without winning or losing, the two separated for a stalemate, Yu Jintang suddenly punched in the chest, which person also saw the opportunity quickly, the left foot quickly turned around the left foot, the elbow drilled into Yu Jintang's upper road, and hit Yu Jintang's head firmly.

Yu Jintang was dizzy for a while, and fell to the ground on the spot, but fortunately, he stood up slowly, and his uncle raised his hand to the two generals, and one of them immediately said: "The son of General Fengzhou Zhongwu wins"

Wu Xiao hurriedly went to help Yu Jintang come back and sit down, "How about it not getting in the way," uncle asked

"It's okay, it's okay to get dizzy, it's not in the way" Yu Jintang shook his head and said

At this time, there was a cold young man on the field, this person was extraordinary, and he knocked down the kid from Fengzhou with an unexpected three punches and two kicks. Then a few more young people came on the field, but all of them were in vain, and the ring was nearing its end.

"Are there any more students on the field?" the young general had already called out a second time.

When Wu Xiao looked up, he saw that the old general was watching him from the main seat, he immediately stopped hesitating, stood up and said, "Jiangnan Ximing asks for advice"
