On the third day of March, early in the morning.

"Husband, it's time to get up!"

Lu Yiming pulled the person who gently pushed him into his arms, closed his eyes tenderly for a moment, and then slowly got up.

There is a cutie who moves faster than him, and has already started to help him put on his coat before his own clothes are neatly dressed.

Lu Yiming tidied up the front of his chest for him. Even though spring had begun, the temperature was still low. He had just come out of the warm blanket, and it was easy to catch cold with disheveled clothes.

"Fu Lang can take another sleep when he comes back today, and I won't be back until sunset."

The martial arts examination is divided into two exams, the inner field and the outer field. The location of the outer field is arranged in the military field in the suburbs, and the inner field is in the commander's mansion in the city. Nine.

Pei Xing nodded obediently. Non-examiners are not allowed to stay outside the military field, and he can't go even if he wants to.

"Didn't my husband bring the food for lunch?" Seeing that Lu Yiming didn't bring the food he secretly prepared yesterday, he was a little puzzled.

"Thank you little star. I didn't inform you in advance. In order to ensure the fairness of the exam, the lunch at noon was prepared by the Ministry of War."

But he didn't waste it, he took it as breakfast and finished it with Pei Xing bit by bit.

Different from civil examinations, you don’t need to bring many things for military examinations. They are all ready-made in the military field. What you bring with you is nothing more than some protective gear for the joints of the body. In short, it is easy to go into battle.

"Let's send it here. If Little Xingxing feels bored at home, just talk to Xiao Miao."

The two parted at the gate of the city. Lu Yiming and Feng Tingji left together. There was a distance when they walked out of the gate.

Lu Yiming waved to him, signaling him to go back quickly.

Seeing this scene, Feng Tingji whistled: "Brother Lu is so lucky."

Lu Yiming turned around, glanced at him, and was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled and said, "Of course, but Brother Feng, who is not married, may not be able to enjoy this happiness."

Feng Tingji shivered as the cold wind blew past. He vaguely heard a "croak" coming from the wind, and he didn't know if it was an illusion.

When they arrived, there was already a long queue outside the military field, three small temporary tents, and three checkpoints.

Every candidate who enters needs to check their floating ticket and clothing, whether they are carrying illegal equipment.

"This place looks much more masculine than the place where the civil and imperial examinations took place, but it's not like that place, which exudes mildew and damp cold all the year round."

Lu Yiming recalled the scene when he was in the college entrance examination. He sat bent on the chair, and he couldn't even stretch his hands and feet in that square inch. He nodded with deep understanding.

"Take people down and deal with them by military law."

A rough voice sounded from the tent in front of Lu Yiming. A bearded man was dragged out by the soldiers, shouting: "My lord...you really don't know that this is against the rules!"

Alcohol is like a modern stimulant, and it is not allowed to carry and drink it before the martial arts exam. When the examinee passed in front of him, he could even clearly smell the strong smell of alcohol emanating from the opponent's mouth.

This decree was notified in advance by the local entry officer before applying for the martial arts exam. How could anyone not know about it?

It's just a fluke mentality.

"Next person."

Lu Yiming raised his feet and entered the tent. There were only two soldiers inside. One asked him to stand in the prescribed position, and the other took his floating ticket to check his identity and recorded something.

"Take off all the clothes on your body, and check the protective gear."

Lu Yiming did as he said, and when he was studying in the north, he met many times in the bathhouse with sincerity, so his face was naturally thicker. Except in front of Xiao Xingxing, it didn't matter to everyone else, they were all men, and he wouldn't lose a piece of flesh at a glance.

What's more, this is a must-check content of martial arts.

The soldier checked his clothes and protective gear carefully, and when he turned over the wristband, he leaned in to identify it. After confirming the number and words on it, he gave him a surprised look.

The other party's expression was a bit complicated, but he didn't say anything, but his tone was no longer as cold as before, and he patted him on the shoulder with a trace of familiarity: "Brother is optimistic about you."

Lu Yiming knew the cause and effect without thinking too much. This set of protective gear was given by Mr. Ying. Although it won't help much during the competition, it can save some unnecessary troubles.

The teacher has a heart.

Today's first morning test is horse archery, that is, riding archery, and the afternoon test is infantry.

Martial Arts is not much different from what he imagined, except that the weather is a little unsatisfactory, the sky is gray, and the air is lingering with fog, which has little effect on horse archery, but for farther-distance infantry archery, the line of sight is more difficult. Micro is somewhat hindered.

"This weather is against the candidates in Jiangzhou Prefecture."

"That's right, there are not many talents in Jiangzhou Prefecture this year, and this time it is even less up to the standard."

"It's all because of the weather, I was able to pass the passing line..."

Lu Yiming and Feng Tingji couldn't help sighing when they heard Wu Sheng who was not far away complaining about the weather: "People say that everything is ready and only the east wind is needed. This is probably the cold north wind."

"If the weather is bad, will the standard drop?" Lu Yiming didn't know much about it for the first time participating in martial arts.

Tian Aiwu on the side rushed to answer: "Where will it surrender? If Wu Sheng can't handle this accident well, how can we talk about leading the army to fight."

Although Tian Aiwu is usually irritable, but this time no one refuted it. Like today's sudden situation, it often happens on the border, and the northern examination room often encounters even harsher wind and sand. The weather in Jiangzhou Prefecture is already considered good. .

However, because of this, in the provincial examination held in the capital, the weather was changeable, and many martial arts students in the south were not used to it, so naturally they could not achieve better results.

The order of the examination was ranked according to age from oldest to youngest. The five of them were divided into different groups. The Tian Brothers were earlier, Lu Yiming and Li Yuanzhen were evenly matched, and Feng Tingji was the latest.

This year's supervisor is also the governor, and the main examiner is the governor, but they do not participate in the direct assessment of the outfield and infield examinations. Simply put, the purpose of setting up is to maintain the order of the examination room and supervise the examiners, not to invigilate the military students.

"Soldiers rely on the cultivation of the emperor's morality, the nourishment of the people, and the stability of the country... Serving the country loyally and dying is what a man does." [Note 1]

Listening to the governor's impassioned declaration on the high platform, Lu Yiming couldn't help but think of the mobilization speech of the grade director at the [-]-day swearing-in meeting. Sure enough, no matter where it is, the brainwashing of the leaders is indispensable.

Mr. Ying, who sat on top of him and paid close attention to Lu Yiming from time to time, narrowed his eyes, and paused for a moment when he knocked on the armrest.

This kid is brave enough to desert on such an important occasion!

After the governor's speech, the martial arts examination officially began.

As Tian Aiwen said, the standard of horse archery has not been lowered. Arrow targets are placed 35 steps apart on the side of the horse archery path. Wu Sheng shoots nine arrows three times with his horse, and the one who hits three arrows is qualified. [Note 2]

This time, about 70 people from Jiangzhou prefecture applied for the martial arts exam, and [-] people were admitted to participate in the provincial exam.

Converted into data, the success rate of Wuju candidates is about 14.00%. Apart from external factors such as family background, the proportion of Wuju people is indeed higher.

Feng Tingji elbowed Lu Yiming's arm, pointed at the person who was a No. [-] student just now and said, "If the weather is normal, this person will probably be able to shoot one or two more arrows. What do you think? Are you confident?"

Martial arts students can watch the content of the exam from the sidelines, but they are far away and can only see the results, but cannot hear the voices of the examiners.

This weather has little impact on Lu Yiming, he said calmly: "It's not a big problem."

"Hey——" A martial artist who had been with Fatty Song passed by them just in time to hear this, and said with a sneer, "Big talk."

Feng Tingji has long been unhappy with this group of officials and students. Although this person is indeed capable, this contemptuous attitude is really annoying: "If you have the ability, try it."

"Do you dare to bet, who will win more?"

This person ignored Feng Tingji, but turned to Lu Yiming who was on the side. In recent days, Fatty Song didn't know why he was going crazy. He suddenly quit their xenophobic team and looked at Lu Yiming intentionally or unintentionally. He felt uncomfortable. This person treats Fatty Song What have you done?

Lu Yiming also looked confused, why suddenly someone came to challenge him, the blame came from the sky.

However, it suits him.

Lu Yiming glanced at the opponent's number plate, he was in the same group as him.

Coincidentally, just as he felt no pressure, someone came to relieve him. Why didn't he slap the face he came up to: "What's the bet?"

That person didn't expect Lu Yiming to be so forthright, he didn't push back like a girl, and at the same time, he was more vigilant in his heart: "Then how about betting 500 taels?"

This person was purely watching Lu Yiming's jokes. If they gambled on the qualifications of the exam, both of them would face punishment from the Ministry of Military Affairs, but if they gambled money, it doesn't matter, as long as you can afford to gamble.

Isn't the person in front of him just a poor martial arts student, where there is so much money, the money for his studies at home is estimated to be scraped together, it depends on how he will pay it back when the time comes.

Thinking of this person no longer being arrogant and acting like a cow or a horse for him, he felt happy.

"Brother Lu, why do you have to fight against this kind of person?"

Feng Tingji didn't care about the 500 taels of silver. Lu Yiming's bottle of wine was so expensive, so naturally he wouldn't be short of money, but this man is also the son of a third-rank Chengshouwei, so it's not easy to offend him at this time.

Lu Yiming was not afraid, and even felt that 500 taels was not enough: "Okay, is it just a horse test?"

As soon as the man listened to the music, he didn't expect this man to be so ignorant, he said playfully: "If you want to be better than others, you can."

As evidenced by the governor and the governor who came over suddenly, the two even signed a document and competed for three days, each with 500 taels.

"Why are the two adults here?"

What this man muttered was heard by Ying Li, and he smiled kindly: "It's not that I'm getting old, I like to see the vitality of young people, the more lucky ones are, the more exciting it will be."

The martial arts examinations presided over by the Ministry of War are not as formal and rigid as the civil ones. Ying Li looked at Lu Yiming with a relaxed face, and made his own bet: "Hey, is there no opening? I'll take a gamble too."

It's normal to bet that this happens from time to time in the military field. At this moment, some soldiers with exquisite thoughts rolled their eyes, implying that the brothers who were present would go up.

There are no scruples about this, the governor doesn't mind, they are naturally... very happy!

Waiting for the casino... Oh, no, the racecourse is bustling, and the captain of the city guard has just received a report from his subordinates, saying that his son spent 500 taels in a bet on martial arts, and the governor and the governor-general also went down to the casino. After making a bet, he was so excited that he almost smashed his beloved teacup.

This rebel!spendthrift!

The son doesn't know, as the father, he still doesn't know why this young man named "Lu Yiming" made Song Qing's grandson quiet down?

If it weren't for this person's real ability, would that old fox Yingli be accepted as a closed disciple without anyone noticing?

The reason for the low-key behavior before is that this martial arts examination is a blockbuster.

It turned out to be a good thing, my son, who was incompetent, wanted to hit the muzzle of the gun and be that stepping stone!

The author has something to say: Note 1 "Soldiers... Calm" quotes Gui Youguang's comment on Guo Ziyi.

Note 2 The content of Mashe is quoted from Zhihu.

Mr. Ying: This brain supplement, you are so amazing, I didn't even know I was so far-sighted!
