A eunuch broke into the harem

On the martial arts arena, an army is practicing hard, with bright flags and fierce soldiers, it looks like a mighty army.

Li Xiaomin rode a tall horse and stood in the middle of the martial arts arena, seeing his subordinates so brave, he couldn't help but secretly admired and felt relieved.

This army is composed of strong and strong men he carefully selected from the Royal Forest Army. He named it the Suppressing Evil Army, and arranged a lot of training tasks for them, vowing to train them to become the most valiant army of the time. army.

Although he was not a soldier in his previous life, at least he has read many novels about going back to the past to build an army. He knows that in this era of cold weapons, the most important training method is to increase the physical strength of soldiers. Therefore, the soldiers under him have to carry heavy weights every day. Only after the animal has traveled dozens of miles is he allowed to come back to eat, otherwise he will be punished.

The soldiers suffered terribly from such cruel treatment.Fortunately, Li Xiaomin was willing to spend money, so he asked for a lot of military expenses from the Ministry of War, and spent a lot of time on food, so that the soldiers could eat meat every day, and even invited a few special chefs from the palace, so that the soldiers could also eat meat. Taste the delicious delicacies made by the royal dining room.

It is not easy for soldiers to be able to eat enough to eat every day. In an era when many people could not even have enough to eat.Moreover, Li Xiaomin has never been in arrears with the army's salary. Compared with other troops, he is already a rare benevolent officer.

Sometimes, Li Xiaomin personally led the team and ran for dozens of miles on the road.If it was in his previous life, he would definitely not be able to hold on, but now that he is practicing immortal martial arts hard, running for dozens of miles is simply child's play for him.All the soldiers saw that although the general was young, he ran fast. Li Xiaomin also showed some sword skills intentionally or unintentionally, defeating the warriors in the army. Therefore, all the soldiers respected him, and the training tasks he arranged were also accepted by him. Well executed.

After a period of time, the physical strength of the soldiers increased greatly, and they were raised as strong as cattle by the good food. They practiced martial arts every day. The sword and spear techniques they used were all figured out by Li Xiaomin and the two ghost generals. And strength, it is most suitable to be used on the battlefield.

In order not to show timidity on the battlefield, Li Xiaomin also made up a lot of military knowledge of this era. He also immersed himself in reading a few military books, and invited retired veterans on the battlefield to ask for advice humbly.In view of his modesty and eagerness to learn and the great gifts he gave, those old gentlemen who gave up their spare time were also willing to teach him everything they knew, one by one.As for what can't be taught, we can only wait for him to go to the battlefield to understand it by himself in the future.

Now, Li Xiaomin is standing on the field on horseback, looking at thousands of strong men, using uniform movements, roaring at the same time and slashing wildly with a knife, with a momentum like thunder, he can't help nodding secretly, looking forward to the day when he can lead them into battle to kill the enemy, Let the world know the bravery of our army.

There is a so-called "all wishes come true", and Li Xiaomin stepped on such shit luck today.While fantasizing, he saw a little Huangmen running into the martial arts arena panting, announcing him to go to the palace to meet Queen Zhou.According to the little eunuch, there were thieves and bandits making trouble, and Empress Zhou sent him to fight on purpose.

Li Xiaomin was pleasantly surprised, he threw a piece of silver ingot to the little eunuch, patted his horse and galloped into the martial field, and went straight to the palace.

On the Golden Luan Hall, civil and military officials stood solemnly holding wats.The magnificent Empress of Tang Dynasty sat upright behind the bead curtain, gently parted her vermilion lips, and asked softly: "My dear family, there are bandits in Yongzhou who have killed the prefect of Yongzhou and gathered a crowd to occupy Yongzhou City. How should the court respond? What are the wishes of the gentlemen?"

Hearing the sound, the mighty general Qin Yuan came out of the line, cupped his hands upwards and said, "I want to report to the empress, the old minister is willing to lead an army to go to the conquest, and I will definitely kill all the thieves and regain Yongzhou!"

There was a commotion among all the officials, looking at the old general with a white beard, they sighed that he was indeed a young swordsman, and at this age, he still had such great ambitions.

Empress Zhou shook her head and said: "The old general is loyal to the country, and the world knows it. It's just that the general is old after all, and the saddle horse is tired. I'm afraid it will be bad for his health. If you want to conquer, you have to choose another general."

As soon as Qin Yuan heard this, he was in trouble. Most of his capable nephews and nephews led the army outside to guard the border of Chen Bing to guard against the attacks of Northern Zhao and Chen Guo.In the current Jinling City, it is not easy to find a general who can fight.Thinking of this, he couldn't help lamenting the changes in the world. Back then, there were so many generals under his command, but now there are no one to use them. It's really a pity.

Zhou Tai, the prime minister of the left, came out holding his wat, cupped his hands upwards and said, "The old minister recommends one person, who will definitely wipe out the bandits in one fell swoop: Li Xiaomin, the real Lingxiu, leads the captain of Changshui, and his subordinates are brave and good at fighting. Jinling is famous. If you order him to lead the army, send troops Yongzhou, we will definitely defeat the bandits in one fell swoop, and restore our Tang Dynasty!"

All the officials were a little surprised when they heard this.Although Li Xiaomin is a very noble family, he is only a young man after all, and he has nothing to show for it except knowing the magic of immortality.Zhou Tai insisted on recommending him to lead the army, what is the meaning of this?

Some people with flexible minds were already guessing whether Queen Zhou was cultivating cronies in order to seize military power.And Zhou Tai is the head of all the officials, and there are many disciples under his subordinates in the court. Naturally, he is the only one who follows the lead, and they all come out to recommend Li Xiaomin. He claims to see his subordinates running around the city every day. He is brave and brave, and his reputation has been spread all over the world. He really is a young hero.If he leads the army to go out, he will surely return in a short time.

Qian Song, the prime minister on the right, went out to play and said, "I want to report to the queen, how can that little man be a eunuch, how can he command an army? Besides, he has no experience in commanding an army. If he is ordered to go out, I'm afraid that the army will not accept it. Please ask the queen Mingcha!"

Zhou Tai said stunned: "Then according to the right minister's opinion, what should we do?"

Qian Song smiled and said: "I would like to recommend one person: Qian Wulin, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, is skilled in bowing horses and has unbelievable courage. If he is ordered to go out to fight, he will definitely wipe out the bandits in one fell swoop and live up to the emperor's holy hope."

Zhou Tai shook his head and said: "Your Prime Minister's words are wrong! General Qian is indeed excellent in martial arts, but he is reckless and he has never been in battle. Mao Ran let him lead the army, I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous."

Qian Song sneered and said, "Qian Wulin has never fought before, so could it be that the little eunuch has practiced battle formation for a long time? He is just a lowly slave, if he is allowed to lead the army, I am afraid that people in the world will laugh at me as having no one in Tang Dynasty!" "

Li Xiaomin had already arrived at the gate of the main hall at this time, using his extraordinary hearing, he pricked up his ears to eavesdrop on the movement inside, when Qian Song said that, he couldn't help being furious, thinking: "What an old man, dare to say that I am a lowly slave , like your grandson, is not a good thing!"

As Zhou Tai and Qian Song were the two chancellors on the left and right, a dispute arose, many of their disciples were officials in the court, and they all stood up and tried their best to support their benefactor, and they started to argue with each other.All of a sudden, there were many arguments in the court hall, and the noise gradually became louder.

Only the faction of military generals headed by Qin Yuan, standing in the middle of the two, was very embarrassed, and only sighed that there were no generals in the court who could fight, and they could not be compared with the candidates proposed by the second prime minister, so they could only watch this situation helplessly. The chance to show his face in the war is lost to people from other forces.

Li Xiaomin heard it clearly outside the hall, and wondered in his heart: "Zhou Tai and I have no relatives, why are you helping me like this? Although he is my grandfather-in-law, he himself doesn't know the close friendship between me and his granddaughter... Well, I I see, Empress Zhou instructed her old father to do this. No wonder she often called me to ask questions these days, and rewarded me with some delicious snacks, praising me for being honest and willing to work. It turned out that she wanted to win me over! The military power in my hands, or the fairy art? It seems that they really don't know anyone who knows the fairy art. Without the backing of the mages of the Guishan School, even people in high positions will be a little worried. !"

　Knowing his own value, Li Xiaomin felt relieved and thought to himself: "Since I am so important, then if I directly say that I want to marry her daughter, she shouldn't sternly refuse, right?"

While thinking about it, he suddenly heard the voice of the eunuch standing in the hall to stop the commotion of the officials, Queen Zhou said in a clear voice: "Since the two can't be resolved, why don't you declare Li Xiaomin and Qian Wulin to go to the hall and take a look in the hall, both of you how about?"

The two prime ministers can do whatever they want, and they both nodded in agreement.

A eunuch walked out of the palace gate and shouted loudly: "The queen has orders, Xuan Li Xiaomin and Qian Wulin go to the palace!"

Li Xiaomin has been guarding the entrance of the hall, and when he heard the sound, he stepped in, walked through the passage between the officials, and walked to the jade steps, turned over and bowed down, silently chanting: "My lord mother-in-law, your daughter serves me so comfortably It's only right to bow to you. I haven't seen her for so many days now, and I really miss her. When, should I let Li Bai come back from the Soviet Union to comfort Princess Zhenping?"

He was thinking wildly, but he heard the beautiful woman behind the bead curtain on the jade throne ask with a smile: "Li Xiaomin, I ordered you to lead the evil army, how are you doing?"

Li Xiaomin kowtowed at the bottom of the jade steps and said, "I want to tell you, my majesty, I have received the grace of God, and I always think of serving you every day. Now I lead the soldiers every day, practice them strictly, and let them look up at the sky every day to worship, and miss the love between your majesty and your majesty in my heart." Hude, I will be loyal to the imperial court in this life, and I will go through fire and water, and I will never hesitate!"

Empress Zhou smiled slightly, and said softly: "Yongzhou bandits are making trouble, Prime Minister Zhou recommends you to go to suppress the bandits, would you like to go?"

Li Xiaomin hurriedly kowtowed and said: "I have little talent and little learning, and I have never fought in battle. Thanks to Zhou Xiangye's recommendation, I will definitely devote myself to my death and die. I will not wipe out all the thieves and bandits, and I vow not to return to the court!"

Empress Zhou nodded with a smile, and was about to speak, when she heard footsteps outside the door. A burly man, wearing heavy armor, walked into the hall with heavy steps.

When he came to Li Xiaomin's side, the strong man turned over and kowtowed, humming and buzzing: "The last general Qian Wulin, kowtow to the empress!"

Empress Zhou repeated what she said earlier, and asked: "If you are sent to lead the army, do you have the confidence to wipe out the bandits?"

Qian Wulin was originally the nephew of Qian's family, Qian Song and Li Xiong worked hard to seize such an important official position as the commander of the Yulin Army and appointed him to hold it. Kowtowing and kowtowing: "Empress, don't worry, the last general will live up to the holy hope, cut off the heads of all the thieves, and bring them back to the emperor!"

Empress Zhou frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "This matter must be discussed in the long term. You should get up and talk first."

Li Xiaomin stood up and boldly peeked at the slim woman behind the curtain, but he could only see the seductive aura of the queen's sexy body covered by the dress, and couldn't see the rest clearly, so he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

Turning his head to look at Qian Wulin's iron tower-like body, his eyes full of hostility, Li Xiaomin smiled slightly, bowed upwards and said: "Mother, the villain is willing to compete with General Qian to decide whether to win or lose. If the villain loses, he voluntarily bows his head and admits defeat. The villain has no face to accept the important task, I would like to let it go to General Qian, I wish him an early return with victories."

Qian Wulin was stunned, he didn't expect that this thin little eunuch dared to challenge him, and he couldn't help but play in his arms.Although the victory is not martial arts, he also replied loudly: "Queen, the final general is willing to compete with this little eunuch to determine the outcome. Whoever wins will be sent to the south!"

The officials of Qian Song's faction were overjoyed when they heard the sound. They knew that Qian Wulin was brave and capable of defeating thousands of troops. In terms of size alone, it was enough to crush this overconfident little eunuch to death. , This is a good recipe for choosing a handsome man.

Qin Yuan's generals were also very interested.Seeing that the little eunuch was so courageous and dared to challenge the burly commander of the Imperial Forest Army, he couldn't help but get excited, and fanned the flames from the sidelines, just wanting to watch a good show of winning the commander by martial arts.

On Zhou Tai's side, they all kept silent.Zhou Tai twirled his white beard with his hands, looked at Li Xiaomin intently, thinking in his heart, since he is willing to say that, there must be a chance of winning.Moreover, he is possessed of celestial arts, so it is unknown if he will win with a strange skill at that time, so he nodded in agreement and said: "It is possible to win the master in a martial arts contest. Please make an order from the empress to move the martial arts arena so that the two generals will compete on the spot. To set the standard."

Empress Zhou nodded in agreement and said, "That's fine. Let's go to the martial arts arena!"

Hundreds of civil and military officials, guards and soldiers, escorted the phoenix chariot, and came to the side of the martial arts arena in a mighty manner.Someone has led the horse, presented the bow and arrow, and let the two generals compete in archery.

Qian Wulin is skilled in archery and horse, so he wouldn't be afraid to compete with an eunuch, but he is contemptuous in his heart, and his reputation will be weakened by comparing arrows with a eunuch!

He flew on the horse, galloped the horse, held the carved bow like a full moon, but saw the sharp arrow piercing through the air, flashing a cold light in the air, and falling far towards the target in the center of the martial arts arena.

This arrow hit the red heart.The drummer next to the target beat the big drum fiercely, and a soldier shouted loudly: "General Qian's arrow hits the red heart!"

Qian Wulin was full of energy, patting horses back and forth by the side of the martial arts arena, with all the arrows in his hand, one arrow hit the red heart, ten arrows in a row, none of them missed, and lined up in the center of the ten targets arranged in the middle of the martial arts arena. One line, it looks truly amazing.

On the sidelines of the martial arts arena, there was thunderous cheers.The officers and soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army who followed Qian Wulin applauded loudly, and the officials of Qian Song's line also burst into laughter. They raised their eyes to look at Li Xiaomin, just wanting to see what kind of earth-shattering ability this little eunuch has, that he can shoot better than Qian Wulin.

At this time, Li Xiaomin had no confidence at all.These days, he only cares about practicing martial arts and immortal skills, or else he is practicing immortal power on Qin Yuan, Concubine Chen, Concubine Xiao Shu and several princesses and maids. He has never practiced archery.But with so many people watching, even though he was suffering from stage fright, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and pat the horse out. He took out an arrow from the quiver, put it on the bow and drew it full, looked at the target from a distance, and shot it out. .

As soon as the arrow was shot, Li Xiaomin immediately knew something was wrong.This arrow, however, shot a little high.If calculated according to common sense, I am afraid that most of them will miss the target.
