This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 374 Assassination
Lu Yuanzhi's eyes were somewhat deep as he looked at the crowd around him who were about to move.

Hai Wuyan followed him, under his protection, with a calm smile on his face.

Obviously, he was secretly relieved that he could get this Hui Yuan.

In fact, as Hai Wuyan, who has always had outstanding talents in Qinghe Academy, he has received a lot of praise since the day he entered Qinghe Academy.

Therefore, his goal has always been to score three goals in a row.

What is three yuan in a row?

Those who have the first armor in the rural examination are Jieyuan.

Those who can test the head armor are Huiyuan.

The person who takes the first armor test in the palace will be the number one scholar.

The meaning of winning three yuan in a row is these three yuan.

But when he was about to leave, Sun Shan, who was taking the provincial examination, knocked his pride to the bottom.

Even the long-standing adherence to Confucianism and Taoism has been somewhat shaken.

But, today.

But it was the day when he was clear and avenged.

Having won the Hui Yuan, he couldn't help but feel light and airy when he walked.

Those of the same age who wanted to come up to congratulate him all had a trace of hesitation on their faces when they saw him following Lu Yuanzhi, who was dressed in black brocade and white jade.

Obviously, Pei Yinlang's reputation in this capital is extremely intimidating.

Don't talk about these students who have just passed the national examination.

Even the dignitaries who were waiting to catch their son-in-law stopped and did not dare to step forward when they saw him following Lu Yuanzhi.

Hai Wuyan is happy to be quiet and at ease.

In his eyes, true victory can only be considered after achieving results in the palace examination a month later.

After that day, it would be a good thing to meet again in the same year in the street.

"You boy."

How could Lu Yuanzhi not understand Hai Wushuang's intention of following him? He smiled helplessly and did not intend to pay attention. He knew Erwa's temperament.

"Close the team!"

When he came to the pavilion and looked at the two teams of black brocade and white jade in front of him, Lu Yuanzhi looked solemnly and waved his hand.

After hearing his order, the two teams of black brocade and white jade, who were still a little loose, stood up straight in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, they stood in line.

Lu Yuanzhi said nothing, but just cast his eyes on Zhang Shenxing.

Zhang Shenxing stood up consciously when he saw Lu Yuanzhi's gaze. With his height of more than nine feet, he was full of intimidation and shouted loudly at the entire team. His voice wanted to cross the street and go into the distance:
"all!"

Everyone tidied up their clothes.

"Row!"

The next moment, everyone stepped out with their left foot in unison, looked seriously, and walked out of the street with their heads held high.

The extremely neat movements of this team of black brocade and white jade struck everyone's heart.

Not to mention going up to say hello to Hai Wuyan, he didn't even have the courage to look directly at the progress of the team.

When they came to the street corner, Lu Yuanzhi and Hai Wuyang looked at a sedan chair.

Behind the sedan, Liu Fengnian was putting on the wedding robe he had prepared for himself while asking his servants. His voice of disgust could still be vaguely heard:

"What? The Ministry of War? No, no, no, in the entire capital, who doesn't know that the Ministry of War is at the bottom of the five departments?"

"Li Bu? That's okay. The girl from the Li Bu official's family can be considered. I'll ask about that. If the dowry is large, the marriage can be completed today. That's it."

"..."

The corners of their mouths twitched at the same time, and they quickly turned their heads away.

Obviously, no one wants to know this idiot at this time.

……

After walking all the way to the Yamen, Lu Yuanzhi turned around, looked at Hai Wuyan behind him, and said with a smile on his face:
"Okay, let's go home. It's getting late. It's time to tell my uncle the good news and make him happy."

"Ah."

After Hai Wuyan nodded, he turned and left.

He didn't dare to stop for a moment.

In his mind, winning the Huiyuan is only the first step. Next, being able to shine in the palace examination is the key to his future efforts.

Therefore, I still couldn’t put down my studies. After returning home, I studied hard for another month.

……

Time passes slowly.

During this period, no one came to disturb Lu Yuanzhi. Since he reached the third level, his body has been undergoing miraculous changes every day.

The most obvious one was that he found that he didn't seem to need to eat anymore...

He doesn't even need to drink water. He just allows the breath in his body to circulate on its own every day, and he can go without eating or drinking for a long time.

After making this discovery, he became even more curious. What else is more magical about a third-grade warrior?
Then he discovered that he could avoid sleeping...

Very good, becoming more and more like a perfect... worker.

During the time when Pei Yinlang was working, he lived a very leisurely life.

The next biggest thing is nothing more than the imperial examination.

Time passed quickly, and the day of the imperial examination was getting closer.

During this time, the examination papers for the General Examination Huiyuan were naturally released.

Then, a poem began to spread in the streets and alleys throughout Beijing.

"Qinghai's long clouds and dark snowy mountains."

"The lonely city looks at Yumen Pass in the distance."

"The yellow sand wears golden armor in a hundred battles."

"I swear I won't return the monster until I break it!"

Among the Jiaofangsi, this poem has already been sung badly by the major courtesans.

It has even begun to spread slowly outside.

In less than three months, all literati in Dayong will surrender to this poem.

The name of the owner of this poem, Qinghe Academy Hai Wushuang, naturally spread along with this poem.

Hai Wuhuang became famous all of a sudden.

My uncle had been floating on his way to court for a month.

Even if someone asked him what day it was today, he would smile and ask:
"What? How do you know that Quanzi has won the Huiyuan? Haha, the song "Joining the Army" was written by Quanzi."

……

Those colleagues who did this all had objections to him. .

However, the uncle is still enjoying it and will not listen to other people's dissuasion. In short, he always says one thing to everyone:

"Joining the army? It's not bad. In a few years, Quanzi's poetry skills should be able to compete with me..."

This unashamed spirit is worthy of emulation and study by official officials.

……

Royal study room.

Emperor Jianhong sat on the main seat and looked slowly towards the door.

Apparently, he was waiting for someone to come in.

After a while, a figure, led by Xiao Huangmen, slowly walked towards the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Ling Yun has been brought here."

"Well, you go down."

Jianhong waved his hand lightly, and his eyes fell lightly on the man.

This man was dressed in black robes, his eyes flashed with green light, and his face was full of red light, but there was lingering confusion and confusion between his eyebrows.

It was Ling Yunhou who was in front of him. At this time, as soon as Ling Yunhou entered the imperial study room, he knelt down with a bang and said:

"I have seen your majesty. Your majesty has lived forever!"

When Jianhong heard these words that made his ears tingle, impatience flashed across his expression, his brows furrowed deeply, and his voice also had a touch of stiffness:
"Ling Yunhou, I and you were together for five days. More than a month has passed in a flash. Why is there still no movement in the realm of warriors?"

After hearing Jianhong's words, Ling Yunhou buried his head deeply on the ground and did not dare to raise it. His voice also carried the same doubts as Jianhong's, but his tone was trembling, fearful, and mixed with a hint of cowardice:
"Yes, it's been a month, why haven't I broken through to the third level yet..."

……

Hearing this, Jianhong's temples swelled up, and he suppressed his anger and said in a cold voice:
"I'm asking you this!"

"Your Majesty! I...I don't even know!"

At this time, Ling Yunhou raised his head, his face full of grievance:
"I followed the method recorded in ancient books and swallowed the heart of Tianwei completely into my belly, taking the risk of bursting my Dantian, but..."

Speaking of this, confusion flashed in his eyes:
"But there is no movement at all... After so many days, there is no other reaction except for a little more bloating in the abdomen..."

"How come there isn't??!"

Jianhong couldn't control his anger any longer. He made a "bang" sound that shook the table.

"When you got the Heart of the End of the World, you personally inspected it and there was no problem at all!!"

This vibration of the table made Ling Yunhou jump out of fright, and the head he had just raised immediately kowtowed again:
"Your Majesty... this... minister..."

Hemming and hawing, Ling Yunhou couldn't explain why.

He didn't even dare to doubt that the Tianwei Heart that Jianhong gave him was fake.

And he felt more aggrieved than anyone else.

After practicing all his life, he finally reached the fourth level and became a leader among the nobles. Just when he was about to honor his ancestors, he was pulled by Jianhong onto his pirate ship.

I thought I could use this opportunity to break through the third level and become the new God of War of Dayong that everyone respected.

As a result, despite taking poison and having his life controlled, he has not yet broken through to the third level.

Before eating Tianwei's Heart, he was at level four, and after eating Tianwei's Heart, he was still at level four. So didn't he eat in vain? ? ?
"What went wrong?"

Jianhong looked at Ling Yunhou's useless look, took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and looked at him and asked.

In fact, Jianhong's heart ached.

He originally wanted to keep the medicine used to control people in his hands. Before he died, he would give the medicine to his old minister who had left him alone, so that the new emperor could use his hands and feet.

The results of it……

But I gave it to this guy one step ahead! He even gave away Tianwei's heart.

The results of it?
Everything was lost.

Nothing was caught.

"My lord, I really don't know."

Ling Yunhou was almost dying of grievance at this time. He raised his head and said with a mournful face:

"For this breakthrough, I was already prepared to die. Who would have thought that nothing happened in the end? I was wronged!"

Seeing his extremely cowardly appearance, Jianhong took a deep breath. If he had a knife in his hand now, he might just go up and stab this guy to death.

"What if you can't break through? Do you want me to wait for you until the end of the world?!"

Jianhong's voice was extremely cold.

After hearing this, Ling Yunhou also knew that he had to make something real at this time, otherwise His Majesty's trust in him would soon be gone.

He gritted his teeth and said, his expression turning sinister:

"Your Majesty, although I cannot break through to the third level for the time being, isn't our purpose to fight against Ji Xuan's traitorous traitor?"

Jianhong didn't say anything, he just looked at him gloomily.

Seeing that His Majesty did not deny him, Ling Yunhou became more courageous. He knelt down at Jianhong's feet and spoke in a very low voice:

"I can't do it openly, but I am willing to be His Majesty's secret knife."

When Jianhong heard this, his eyes suddenly flickered, and he also lowered his voice:

"You mean..."

"Ji Xuanchen can't move, but can't he move his right and left arms?" Ling Yunhou's voice turned sinister. He looked around, then lowered his head and said:

"I am a fourth-grade servant, and my old servant is also a fourth-grade servant. If Your Majesty can lend me two more fourth-grade warriors, I don't believe that I can't break Ji Xuan's arm. By then, Xiao Lu Yuanzhi will be surrounded and killed by us that night. There is no way to escape death!”

At this point, his face had completely darkened, and his eyes were flashing with hatred.

Hear this.

Jianhong's eyes also flickered.

After a long time, he suddenly raised his head, turned around slowly, and looked at Ling Yunhou who was kneeling on the ground:
"Get up."

Hearing this voice, Ling Yunhou felt slightly relieved. He knew that his words were useful.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

With that said, he slowly and respectfully stood up and came to Jianhong's side, like an obedient dog.

Jianhong’s voice remains the same:

"Have you ever heard of the names of the two men under the mighty marquis' tent, Ju Lei and Ju Qing?"

Hearing Jianhong's words, Ling Yunhou's eyes burst into astonishing light, and he nodded hurriedly:

"I've heard it! That's enough!!"

"Well, plan it carefully and do it secretly."

"Yes!"

…………

The second day of the fourth lunar month.

There were many students standing in front of the palace, and everyone looked at the vast Jinluan Hall in front of them with admiration.

Hai Wuyan was also standing in the crowd with an expressionless face.

At this time, exactly one month has passed since the original release date.

Next comes the final exam that many students dream of.

Also called the imperial examination.

The emperor would personally set the questions, and then the examiners ordered by the emperor would mark them, and then pass them to the emperor, who would personally score them and then make a ranking.

The one who gets the first place will be the top scholar in a subject!
The two words "Number One Scholar" are the honor that all students dream of.

And the people standing here are all outstanding people from all over the world in this era.

Everyone has full confidence in themselves.

Including the old man with white hair and beard.

After a while, an official slowly walked out of the hall, looked at these students, and said expressionlessly:

"Enter the temple and meet the Holy Spirit!"

……

Lu Yuanzhi did not go to the Yamen today.

Just because he takes a rest today.

After getting up, I went to Xuanwu Street to buy some things that women liked, and then bought some delicious gadgets and put them in the scripture space.

When he was thinking about when and what day to send it to Princess Changle, his eyes slowly focused.

Then an innocent smile appeared on his face.

Apparently, he sensed a hint of ill-intention in the air aimed at him.

one two three four?

Four fourth-grade? ?
In his perception, there seemed to be four fourth-grade warriors around him who were silently sizing him up.

Lu Yuanzhi did not hesitate. After he pretended to pay the money to the merchant, he slowly walked into a dark alley.

After arriving at the alley, Lu Yuanzhi looked around, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.

Well, this is indeed a good place to play.
