The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 256: : Civil and military advance

On the ninth day of February, it is the big day for Gongyuan to open the light, accept mining, travel, open the market, and accept wealth. It also coincides with the Christmas of the sixth ancestor of Buddhism, Master Huineng. Master Huineng once said: When is the time to be self-made Fa, sticking to one's own heart, you can see all the changes and get what you want in your heart, which also means that the imperial examination officials will achieve their wishes and be on the imperial list.

Xiao Rui served as the martial arts examination **** supervisor, unable to participate in the excitement and tension of the liberal arts examination, he was going to the military school.

The chief examiner of the military imperial examination was Qiu Zhigang, the military servant. When Xiao Rui arrived, this person personally greeted him and explained the whole process of the military imperial examination to Xiao Rui.

There are three consecutive tests with the liberal arts test, each of which is different in three days. The martial arts test is divided into two internal and external tests. The outfield test is conducted first. According to the previous process, the three-day field test ends. The fourth day of the test is the martial arts test. It's over. Then there is scoring, and candidates can wait for the list to be released.

When Xiao Rui came to the school grounds, the military officials were verifying their body and let the candidates enter the school grounds in an orderly manner. At this time, the school grounds have been divided into multiple areas according to the test content.

Qiu Zhigang accompanied Xiao Rui to introduce him the content of the Wu imperial examination.

The first exam in the outfield is the "bow horse", that is, riding and shooting. As the name suggests, horse-riding archery and in-situ archery, one of three arrows is a pass, all of them are "good", and those who fail one item are not allowed to take the next test.

The second exam, called "Technical Courage", is actually a strength test.

The first item of the skill test is to draw a hard bow. You can try three times, subject to the full bow on the top of your head. Bows are divided into four grades, with three-stone strong bows and above being "number one", three-stone bows as "number one", two-stone bows as "number two", and one-stone bows as "number three".

The second item of the technical bravery test is to lift a large stone, which is also divided into four levels, with more than 300 jin as the "number one", 300 jin as the "number one", two hundred and fifty jin as the "number two", and two hundred jin as the "number one". "No. 3" requires the dashi to be lifted between the chest and abdomen, and then the left and right sides of the bottom of the dashi are exposed once, which is called "presentation", and one completed is qualified.

The third item of the skill and bravery test is the dance sword, which is divided into four levels, 120 kg or more is "out of the number", 120 kg is the "number one", 100 kg is the "number two", and 80 kg is the "number three". Candidates must first lift the knife from the left and right sides over the top of the head, and then perform the dance knives on the front and back chests. One completion is considered qualified.

In the technical bravery test, two items of "No. 2" or above are considered qualified and can participate in the "infield" exam, and those with three items of "No. 1" or above are considered "good".

In the outfield test, the two "good" scores are called "double good". In the next infield, the answer is not too excessive, and they can basically be on the list.

The in-field exam is a literary exam, and the content of the exam is divided into silent answers and policy arguments. The silent answer is to fill in the blanks in silent writing. It is not difficult to extract famous sentences from the seven books of Wujing, so that you can write some famous sentences in silent test. The policy theory is the basic topic describing a policy theory, which is basically the battle between the two armies, how to arrange troops, and what strategies can be used to defeat the enemy.

After Xiao Rui got acquainted with the content of the entire military imperial examination, she was bored and simply sat on the stage and chatted with Qiu Zhigang.

As soon as the auspicious day arrives, the military imperial examination officially begins.

Each area has special examiners, deputy examiners, and supervisors. It is difficult to cheat in the field exams. If you can't shoot, you can't shoot. If you can't draw the bow, you can't draw the bow. The officials in charge of recording the results dare not mess around. Record grades.

Xiao Rui and Qiu Shigang chatted for a while, and they became more and more boring. This person is the confidant of Huo Xingye, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and Huo Xingye is the uncle of the fourth prince Xiao Feng. He naturally supports Xiao Feng, so Xiao Rui will not try to win him over. .

With nothing to do, Xiao Rui wandered around to see the performance of the candidates.

Xiao Rui came to the area where he was riding and shooting, and saw each of the candidates getting on their horses and running, shooting bows and arrows in one go, with the look of a cavalry. Came to the area where the strong bow is pulled again. Some candidates are eight feet tall and can easily pull the two-stone strong bow. At this level, they are all elite shooters in the military. In the area of ​​dancing knives, the knives were shining brightly, and a hundred catties of big knives were smashed.

Most of the people who came to participate in the martial arts examination were wealthy children with wealthy and unwillingness to study. They were unable to enter the official career, and there were no prominent high-ranking officials in the family. They like to use swords and guns to participate in the martial arts examination. Although the promotion of the generals of the Great Xia State depends on military merit, the military imperial examination is a springboard after all. After entering the guards, the treatment is much better than the recruited soldiers. After all, they have fame, so they are promoted faster than ordinary soldiers.

Moreover, Xiao Rui could also see that those who were able to participate in the military imperial examination were recommended by the local government or even the state. Naturally, they were not fools, and they were all masters in the military.

Therefore, for these candidates, although the outfield test is difficult, it is not the most difficult. It is estimated that the infield written test is the most difficult. They can dance knives and guns, and may not be familiar with the art of war and military classics.

This reminded Xiao Rui of Su Qi'er, who had amazing martial arts, but he couldn't even write his name. How could such a person be on the list?

In fact, from the perspective of the Great Xia State, the military imperial examination was very important, but unfortunately it was mocked by the proud liberal arts examination as a foil. The significance of the military imperial examination is to select potential officers for the country, because you must have a culture and military to become a Wujinshi, and basic officers and middle-level officers are the backbone of the army. Such people are one of the powerful factors of an army.

If a country wants to be strong, it doesn't work to emphasize culture and military or military and military. The simultaneous development of civil and military is the right way. Emperor Xia deeply understands this. Therefore, the treatment of soldiers and soldiers has been improved year after year, but the intensity is not enough. But your Majesty still has trouble. Now the civil service group has already boycotted it. If you further strengthen the treatment of army building, the five-army capital will be killed by the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household will directly restrain you, and you will not be able to laugh at all.

Xiao Rui shook his head and put his inner thoughts behind him. As he continued to observe, in addition to the candidates with good martial arts, there were some existences that surprised Xiao Rui.

One of them was small and thin. He could barely pass the test by riding and shooting, but in the face of the test of skill and bravery, he couldn't pull a crossbow, and he could barely lift the boulder and couldn't use the big sword.

Looking at his height of 1.5 meters, he is a short man, and he is also very thin. Which state capital of this kid can be recommended to take the imperial examination?

Look at the others. They are all short seven feet tall. They are all brawny men. After all, Wu Keju is better than physical fitness. It is a miracle for him to participate in the imperial exam with such a small body.

Not surprisingly, he was eliminated and was unable to take the written test.

Xiao Rui got interested and asked Yuan Fang to call him.

Hearing that His Royal Highness King Xian personally summoned him, he hurried over and clasped his fists respectfully: "Caomin Lu Xian, pay respect to His Royal Highness King Xian!"

Xiao Rui asked, "Where are you from?"

Lu Xian respectfully said: "A person from Changshan Mansion in Lower Jizhou."

"How many warriors in Jizhou!" Xiao Rui looked surprised and couldn't help asking: "You went to the capital to participate in the martial arts examination without any hesitation, and just failed the list?"

Lu Xian looked ashamed, and said: "Let your Highness read the joke. The villain is deeply ashamed, ashamed of his hometown elders, and ashamed of the recommendation of the prefect."

Xiao Rui saw that he was not shocked by honor or disgrace, and he was not shy about facing himself, and his eyes were extremely energetic. This is definitely not the grace that the weak should have, so he asked: "You can come to participate in the martial arts examination, you must be outstanding. , Can you show me one or two?"

"The honour of the villain is just here..." Lu Xian looked around.

Xiao Rui said: "You will wait outside the school first, are you willing?"

Lu Xian excitedly said, "This is the honor of the villain!"

Xiao Rui nodded and continued to take Li Yuanfang around, and at the same time asked Li Yuanfang, "What do you think of this person? Is there any martial arts?"

Li Yuanfang is a top five master with extremely high level. When Xiao Rui asked Lu Xian, he watched him carefully, and said: "His Royal Highness should have found a piece of gold! Although this person is thin and lacks strength, he cannot pull a strong bow. You can't be a broadsword, you can't be a killer general, but who stipulates that a thin person must be a weak person? I think he walks very lightly, and light work is inevitable, and it is above me."

Xiao Rui let out a soft cry, and his eyes lit up: "Qinggong is higher than you? So this king has found a treasure?"

"Let your Highness laugh, just talk about light work, I can barely be regarded as a first-class, a real first-class master, it is easy to explore the palace at night." Li Yuanfang said: "The commander of the palace Yan Qing and deputy commander Mu Chen are extremely good at them. Qinggong, they are all first-class masters. Otherwise, they can't keep the masters who sneak into the palace."

Xiao Rui nodded, becoming more interested, hoping that the boring imperial examination would end as soon as possible.

At the end of the application period, the test on the first day came to an end and will continue tomorrow.

Xiao Rui only heard the chief examiner Qiu Zhigang and set off for the palace.

Jia Xu and Guo Jia stared at the situation of the literary meeting and came back at this time. According to them, Xiao Jing strictly played his role as an **** against Zhou Mingfa, the right servant, and stared closely at the exit inspection when he entered the Gongyuan. Anyone who dares to entrain cheat sheet ~www.wuxiahere.com~ intends to cheat and is directly disqualified and fame.

Many candidates who were lucky enough to do this, were dragged out by the Forbidden Army after they were discovered.

"This is the day for the three subjects of the test, and the Tribute Institute's body search is only the first level. Even if it is strict, only a part of the cheating candidates can be found. Other cheating candidates have various methods. How can they be found?" Xiao Rui Smiled.

Jia Xu nodded and said, "It's hard for these candidates. In order to cheat, they have tried every means and have been endless. It is a pity that this time it is impossible to escape the involvement of the fraud case, and the basket will be wiped out."

"No hurry! When the fraud case is revealed after the list is released, he will hand this butcher knife to Xiao Jing at that time. He will not be stingy with brandishing a knife." Xiao Rui smiled and said, "This time, in order to settle this fraud case, We concealed the test booklet and did not disclose it until five days ago to prevent the information from leaking out. Now, even if Zhou Mingfa hears the wind, there is nothing to do."

Guo Jia also smiled and said: "The source of the fraud case was revealed from Zhou Mingfa's son Zhou Xingchen, and even Xiao Yiheng will not be able to recover."

The three of you say something to me, Zhou Mingfa's crime is nailed down, and there will be no chance to get rid of the crime!
