“Aye…”

Luo Shen called him in a trembling voice.

After a while, my father slowly turned his head, his eyes were covered with blood, his face was haggard and his expression was bleak.

It only took one night and looked much older.

"Aye—"

The God of Luo could no longer bear it and burst into tears.

She already knew her father's final decision.

...

Although the situation in Linyi in the southwest has stabilized, the pressure faced by the court has not been reduced at all.

According to the news from the spies from Jiangbei, Beixia is determined to invade the south this time, and there is a rumor that the army has a million people.

However, if the Dayu army is sufficient, it can only recruit 300,000 troops at most.

Three hundred thousand soldiers need three times the supply of millions of people.

The Minister of the Duzhi reported that the national treasury of Dayu is now only enough to support the north, and the court must end the rebellion as soon as possible to concentrate all its efforts to deal with this war related to the destiny of the country from the north.

...

"Ami, don't hate Aye. Aye doesn't want to save your brother. Aye has no choice. If Yu Zhang loses again and the civil strife is slow, once the Xia people are in a hurry, I, Dayu, will probably not be able to support it..."

Gao Qiao's voice was hoarse and tears were in his eyes. He explained to his daughter over and over again the decision he made.

"Aye!"

She doesn't hate Aye's ruthlessness.

She only regrets the insecurity of peace in the world, why wars always come one after another and there is no peace in the day.

Because of the war, the country was weak and the people were poor, and my father was exhausted and exhausted, and he was never happy all day long.

Because of the war, the dreams and ambitions of young gentry children like Adi who dreamed of making achievements.

It was also because of the war that she tasted the first time in her life that she was separated from her relatives.

She cried so hard that she could not bear herself, and finally she was exhausted and fell asleep in her father's arms. When she woke up the next day, she felt a headache and could not get up.

Luo Shen couldn't sleep all night and lay in bed for three days. Even Xiao Yongjia, who had not returned to the city for several years, rushed back after hearing the news and took care of her day and night.

Early in the morning of the fourth day, when she was drowsy, she was shocked by another message.

Brother Ah is rescued!

When he was about to fight, a low-level military officer in the army broke into the formation of Linchuan King alone, as if he had entered a no-man's land and saved her brother.

The name of that military officer is Li Mu.

"I said that today is the response, so I will use dogwood as the color. The two people who compete for the exam will start by answering the question together. Who can pass the three passes first and get dogwood as the son-in-law of my husband. The loser will also give gifts to Quehu Villa to express his feelings."

Gao Qi announced that it was finished and handed the roll of paper in his hand to Feng Wei.

The paper roll was sealed with oil wax.

With Gao Qiao's reputation, since he announced it in public, no one would suspect that he secretly leaked his questions in advance in order to choose his son-in-law.

The surroundings became silent, and countless pairs of eyes looked at the roll of paper in Feng Wei's hand together.

Feng Wei spread it carefully, browsed it once, and read it as the book on the paper.

Although there are only three questions today, there are four levels in total, two literature and two martial arts.

The four levels are as follows:

The first level is a text, which is a must-have test. The memory of the two people is tested. The location is at this observation deck. Here, Gao Qiao will present a thousand-character parallel verse, asking the two to recite it one by one. After remembering it, each of them will write it in a pen. Whoever finishes the silence at one time and checks it correctly can set out to the second level. If the middle is broken, or if the silence is wrong, you can read the original text again, but you have to start over. This level does not limit time, but you must pass this level to continue to go up and take the next test question.

The second level of martial arts is also a must-have test, and the bow technique is tested. Thirty meters away, a target is set, and a zhu coins are embedded in the bull's eye. Whoever can first nail the arrow into the hole in the middle of the zhu coins without hurting the money will be considered passing, and you can continue to the third level, which is the last level.

For fairness, the last level is to choose one of two. The literary test is to make clear accusations, and the martial test is to be Hushan. The two can choose one of them according to their strengths.

Whoever can successfully pass the three passes first and obtain the bunch of dogwood on the Fengting Pavilion on the mountain will be the winner today.

While Feng Wei was reading the question, a good person repeated the question and quickly passed it to the foot of the mountain.

In addition to the people who joined in the fun, the spectators at the foot of the mountain also had many children from inferior gentry, scholars from poor families, as well as military soldiers.

These people are just a little bit too close to each other, but today they are all gathered here, but the camps are clear.

On one side of the scholar and the poor family, there is no one in the middle of the Chu River and Han River.

Today coincides with the Double Ninth Festival. In addition to the senior officials in the court today, the scene also attracted many noble ladies who came to watch the battle. Among them, in addition to Princess Qinghe and Mrs. Lu, it is said that Princess Yu Lin also had the same.

The ladies' seats were naturally separated from the man. They chose another flat ground halfway up the mountain, and set up a curtain. People sat inside and covered them with various curtains. They could see inside, but they could not see inside clearly from outside. From a distance, they could only see shaking figures. But if the luck was good enough, when the mountain wind blew the curtain, they might still be able to peek inside.

The frivolous prodigal sons among these people were originally looking up at the direction where the ladies were. Suddenly, they heard these four questions, and the people stopped reading them, and each side started to clamor.

Most of the scholars were cheering, but the poor people shouted that their husbands were unfair to ask questions, and they obviously preferred Lu Jianzhi. They were noisy for a while.

This is the case at the foot of the mountain, and the same is true at the halfway mountain.

After reading the question, Feng Wei gave the question paper to Emperor Xingping as a testimony.

Lu Guang breathed a long sigh of relief, unable to help himself, his face slightly shining.

Xu Mi immediately stood up and smiled and said, "Depth of Field, Brother Yu is not a nitpicking. You have made such a question, but it is actually biased. The three questions are all not conducive to Mr. Lu! Mr. Lu is talented and wrote a fu at the age of seven, and everyone knows it. He is also good at shooting, and the second martial arts pass is also suitable for Mr. Lu. The last two choices are Qingbian and talk about Xuan, and he is also the director of Mr. Lu. If Li Mu also chose Xuanbian, no matter whether he knows or not, what is metaphysics? If he deliberately makes things difficult for his family, how can he win? If he re-elected Hushan and passed the pass in a difficult situation, Mr. Lu met a person who was willing to help him. Wouldn't he pass the pass smoothly and reach the top early? Again, it seems fair, but I don't believe you, but who can guarantee that Mr. Lu has never read the fu you showed before?"

"Unfair! Unfair!"

Xu Mi sneered and kept shaking his head.

Lu Guang's expression turned unhappy: "What do you mean? Did you question Brother Gao's secretly leaked the title and gave it to Cambodia? He took a step back and said that even though Cambodia once read the poems shown by Brother Gao, it was also attributed to his daily knowledge and knowledge. Since he studied the article, how could he get it? As for the so-called unfairness of the argument, it was even more ridiculous! If Li Mu was lucky enough to pass the first two passes and was defeated here, he could only blame himself for his lack of talent. What's more, did Brother Gao have another pass? He could play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses and compete with Cambodia!"

The two argued on the stage, and the officials and celebrities below also whispered and whispered.

Gao Qiao slowly stood up from the seat.

As he stood up, the surroundings became quiet again.
Chapter completed!
