Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Chapter 286 Jiang Zhiqin wants to take the martial arts exam

Most ordinary people just treat it as a piece of news, because it has nothing to do with them. Everyone's thinking has been imprisoned. The military generals in the court are generally people with connections. With so many generals in the army, why bother to elect them among the people?

I'm afraid this is just another show competition.

Whoever gets this title of martial arts champion can become a general.

Whoever has the harder fist is the most powerful.

Seeing the last one, someone said, "The court wants to select talents for the military examination. It is not easy to become the top martial arts champion. One must cultivate both virtue and behavior. A person without talent and virtue cannot become the top martial arts champion."

Someone asked: "What is the boundary of virtue? What kind of people can apply for the exam?"

"Don't you have to take the exam on academics? You have to be good at martial arts and academics. Only people like that can take the exam, right?"

"If you have good knowledge, you can just take the imperial examination and become an official. Who would bother with that?"

"Who can explain the meaning of this government notice? Is it to recruit soldiers or generals? How many generals are they going to recruit?"

Jiang Zhiqin and Jiang Can also squeezed to the front. After reading the notice, Jiang Zhiqin was beaming with joy. He was over fifteen years old, and he had just turned fifteen. He wanted to sign up to take the martial arts examination.

I also heard people around me talking and struggling with the definition of the word "virtue".

He cleared his throat and imitated his father, saying in a serious tone, "A gentleman should set standards and discuss virtues. The "virtue" here refers to the good and bad of talents.

Mencius said: Zai Wo and Zigong are good at rhetoric; Ran Niu, Min Zi and Yan Yuan are good at talking about virtue. The "virtue" here refers to the good qualities of a gentleman.

However, the Book of Rites mentions that, “Thus, the ancient kings valued those with virtue, respected those with morality, and appointed those with ability. The “virtue” here refers to people with virtue…”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was even more confused, "It's the same as not saying anything."

Jiang Zhiqin said, "So don't even think about it. The requirements are too harsh and it's hard to pass. A martial arts champion must also be knowledgeable."

He thought that if fewer people signed up, there would be fewer competitors.

At this time, Lin Yu and Tan Wanqing were also squeezed in the crowd and heard Jiang Zhiqin talking in a profound and difficult to understand manner.

Tan Wanqing didn't go to school for many years, and at most she could recognize and write. If you asked her to do anything, she would rather practice martial arts and couldn't do anything that required her brain.

Lin Yu has been reading and writing since she was young. Although she is not a talented girl, she has been influenced by Jiang Fenghua and has some knowledge, so her business is so big.

Lin Yu knew Jiang Zhiqin's thoughts, so she exposed him and took the initiative to explain, "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense. The notice issued by the government is not that difficult or harsh. Those who want to apply for the exam should think clearly. If you don't have good character, you can't be the top martial arts champion even if you pass the exam. The court selects people with good character to be officials, which is also a responsible attitude towards us ordinary people.

Besides, as for how many people to recruit, there is no limit, the more the better, we are not evil people, anyone with ability can apply."

At this time, Guo Xiao popped up again, but he said to Lin Yu, "Miss Lin is right, so I want to take the exam for the top martial arts student."

Lin Yu saw him again and felt annoyed. "Just you."

"Didn't Miss Lin say it? It's enough to have good character. I think I have very good character." Guo Xiao held a fan in his hand and waved it gently.

Lin Yu said directly, "You are a dandy boy, have you considered your own worth? You are going to take the exam for the top martial arts champion, but I'm afraid you can't even pass the first level!"

"Miss Lin, please don't underestimate me. Although I didn't pass the exam to become the top scholar in literature, I am confident that I can become the top scholar in martial arts." Guo Xiao gestured and approached Lin Yu and said, "I have also been determined to serve the country since I was a child. My father said that he has found a position for me in the military camp. He believes that I will achieve something in the future."

Lin Yu just wanted to roll her eyes, but she felt that it would damage her image. She didn't want to waste another word with him and just turned around to leave.

Without his father, he is nothing.

Guo Xiao saw that she simply treated him as invisible, as if she didn't see him.

In the past, Lin Yu would look at him twice more, but now she doesn't even want to look at him twice more.

He ran to Lin Yu and asked, "If I pass the exam, what will Miss Lin say?"

Because there were too many people, Lin Yu couldn't run away, and Guo Xiao was shameless and pestered her, insisting that she give an answer.

The people around also started to make a noise, "This young man is so handsome and elegant, and this young lady is so beautiful and graceful. If the young man passes the exam, the girl will marry him!"

"Marry him, marry him!"

Even Tan Wanqing felt embarrassed. Guo Xiao had been teasing Lin Yu a lot these days and came to her every day to propose to her. Today, he happened again in such a scene.

This hit the mark of Guo Xiao's heart, and he smiled coquettishly and lasciviously, "That's exactly what I want. I want to marry Miss Lin Yu in a formal ceremony."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu swung his fist and punched Guo Xiao on the nose, causing blood to flow from his nose. He was in so much pain that he couldn't even cry out and fell to the ground.

In an instant, everyone around fell silent. They just thought that the girl was beautiful, but her fist was too hard, so they all shut up.

Who dares to mess with a girl like this?

Guo Xiao was still lying on the ground laughing until Lin Yu and Tan Wanqing left. He covered his nose and said loudly, "I, Guo Xiao, swear that I will never marry anyone other than Miss Lin Yu in this life."

People around him said, "This young master is crazy, really crazy, stop the nosebleed first!"

Jiang Zhiqin and Jiang Can came out again and stomped on Guo Xiao fiercely a few times. "You toad want to eat the swan. I'll stomp you to death."

Guo Xiao was kicked hard several times, and his servant hurriedly asked, "Sir, how are you?"

"Help me up quickly, whoever stepped on me just now, chase him and beat him up."

The servant also knew Jiang Zhiqin, "It's the Fourth Young Master Jiang." The last time the young master harassed Miss Lin, he was beaten up by Jiang Zhiqin.

The servant also complained: Ever since their young master fell in love with Miss Lin Yu, he no longer drinks wine or hangs out outside. He feels pretty good even though he is beaten every day.

Is the young master really sick?

Here, Jiang Zhiqin chased after Lin Yu, "Sister Lin Yu, why are you here too?"

Lin Yu said, "The prince is the chief examiner for this recruitment exam. This notice should have been issued by the prince. If you want to take the exam for the top martial arts candidate, just ask your sister to help you through the back door."

"Sister Lin Yu, you underestimate me. With my ability, do I still need to use a backdoor? I want to be referenced based on my ability."

Lin Yu attacked Jiang Zhiqin directly, but unexpectedly Jiang Zhiqin was not weak either and avoided her attack in just a few moves.

Jiang Zhiqin smiled and said, "See, you can't hit me!"

Lin Yu winked at Tan Wanqing, and the two of them attacked him together. Jiang Zhiqin was like a loach, his hands and feet moved faster, and they couldn't catch him at all.

"The fourth young master of the Jiang family has grown up!" Lin Yu teased.

"I'm fifteen now, haven't I grown up?" Jiang Zhiqin said cheerfully, "How is the boxing I just learned? Am I qualified to take the martial arts examination?"

"Do you really want to participate?" Lin Yu asked him, "This is no joke. The prince is holding a martial arts exam to recruit talents for his own use! You little brat want to be a general?"

Jiang Zhiqin smiled and said, "Sister Lin Yu, do you think I can do it?"

Tan Wanqing said, "Cover your face first, I think it's okay."

Lin Yu smiled and said, "If Fourth Young Master Jiang stands in front of the enemy army and lets them see your stunning beauty, they will retreat without a fight. That is indeed possible."

Jiang Zhiqin was unhappy, and his face immediately fell, "I really want to apply for the martial arts examination."

After saying that, he turned around and left. Why did everyone treat him like a child? His eldest brother, his second sister, his third sister, his parents, and none of them cared about him.

In an instant, Lin Yu and Tan Wanqing stopped smiling and asked, "Are you angry?"

"You made me angry." Tan Wanqing directly blamed him, "You laughed the loudest and were the most proud."

"Did you go easy on him just now?" Tan Guanqing said.

Lin Yu nodded, "A little bit, but he is indeed quite agile."

"Our fourth young master wants to sign up for the martial arts examination. We need to tell the Crown Princess about this!"

"Let's just observe first." They didn't know that Jiang Zhiqin, who was usually careless, was serious this time.

Instantly, Lin Yu had an idea in his mind, "Didn't the notice say that only men were recruited, not women?"

Tan Wanqing shook his head, "I haven't seen it, and it seems there is no limit."

"Let's apply for the exam too. Since she entered the palace, we seem to be from two different worlds. If we apply for the exam, won't we be closer to her?"

Tan Wanqing's Jishantang was also going well, so she was also bored recently. She nodded and said, "Let's give it a try!"

The two of them did what they said and went to find Jiang Zhiqin again, and then took Jiang Zhiqin directly to Jishan Hall for training.
