Chapter 512
Because this is the envoy of Liang State, the envoy of the superior State!
If they persist in this matter, they will definitely make King Jinling suffer a lot, and maybe they "bystanders" will also suffer...

It's fine now. The envoy from Liang State will not be held accountable and a catastrophe in the court will be avoided. It's great...

However, they selectively forgot why the Liang envoys did not pursue the case, and because of whose face they did not want to pursue it.

In any case, the matter was settled, and the scene soon became lively, as if the unpleasantness just now had never happened.

As time went on, more and more people arrived.

Big bosses such as King Zhongshan, Li Zhong, and Yang Tingyu also arrived one after another.

By the way, there is also the Minister of War, who arrived later than the big guys.

After he arrived, he was dissatisfied with all kinds of complaints, gossip, and a dark face. According to him, it seemed that this martial arts should not be held at all.

Martial arts exercises are redundant!

Waste of money!

The remarks of the Minister of War were quickly recognized by most of the military attachés and the King of Jinling.

The martial arts examination is designed to select generals in the army. If this kind of thing is to be held, it should be done by the Ministry of War.

However, this martial arts event was organized by the Divine Thunder Army. He did not get any benefits at all. The Minister of War was naturally dissatisfied.

Those military attaches who agreed were the victims of the martial arts policy, because if the martial arts continued to develop, it might hinder their family's hereditary path...

Although King Zhongshan, the head of the military attachés, strongly supported the military exercise and had solemnly shouted his words, the following generals were actually opposed to it in their hearts.

As for the King of Jinling, needless to say, he now hates Zhu Xiuyuan with all his heart. He hated Zhu Xiuyuan for being disrespectful and embarrassed in front of Princess Anle, so he also hated this martial arts...

If he could use this hatred to step on Zhu Xiuyuan, he would not hesitate at all.

Zhu Xiuyuan ignored these objections.

If their objection had been effective, the plan for this martial arts exercise would have been canceled a few months ago.

Soon, the time came to the beginning of the morning, which was around nine o'clock in the morning.

The first martial arts competition is the "preliminary test" and is about to begin.

The general audience seats were gradually filled with people, and more than [-] martial arts candidates were also ready.

Now just wait for Emperor Chen to arrive before we can officially start.

After waiting for a while, the sounds of "Your Majesty has arrived" and "The Imperial Concubine has arrived" spread throughout the audience.

Emperor Chen and Concubine You finally arrived.

So everyone present got up and walked to the entrance of the auditorium, waiting in line.

As envoys of the Liang Kingdom, Li Jiye and Li Qingnu were no exception, because the other party was Emperor Chen, who was the emperor of a country after all. As foreign envoys, they could not sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

Before Emperor Chen arrived, the Jinwu Guards who were guarding Emperor Chen arrived first.

The Jin Wu Guards, with golden helmets and golden armor, holding spears in their hands, majestic and murderous, rushed into the two sides of the audience seats in groups and put up tight protection.

More than a hundred Jinwu Guards also poured into the audience seats, guarding the exits of various important thoroughfares and providing absolute safety protection.

Soon, Emperor Chen and Concubine You appeared in the eyes of everyone.

I saw Emperor Chen, wearing the crown of "carrying the sun and moon on his shoulders and carrying the stars on his back", a crown with "rolling bead curtains" on his head, and a red horse with heavy soles under his feet...

He actually regarded this martial arts competition as a special ceremony, similar to offering sacrifices to heaven, and he was dressed very formally!
Chen Huang's face was rosy, with a faint smile on his lips, and he was full of energy, which was completely different from his usual look that was hollowed out by wine and sex.

Zhu Xiuyuan guessed that Huang Chen was wearing makeup.

Next to him, Concubine You was also dressed up. She was wearing a imperial concubine's court dress. She was radiant and radiant. Her appearance as a concubine was naturally stunning to the country.

When the ministers saw the ceremony, they shouted in worship, and from the ordinary audience seats in the distance opposite, there were also waves of shouts.

Therefore, the entire martial arts school is filled with the sound of worship, the sound is rolling, quite shocking, and there is a vague atmosphere of the flourishing empire.

"Ha ha……"

Emperor Chen laughed, his face filled with joy, causing the strings of "beads" on his crown to sway.

I believe no emperor would dislike this kind of formation and atmosphere.

Emperor Chen stopped laughing and walked slowly to the throne set up for him. He sat down with Concubine You. Then he waved his hand and said, "Pingshen."

All the ministers stood up straight, like sunflowers, all facing Chen Huang.

"Where is Zhu Aiqing?" Huang Chen's voice was very loud, and you could tell from the sound alone that he was in a very beautiful mood now.

"The minister is here!" Zhu Xiuyuan stepped forward and bowed his hands.

"How are the preparations for the military examination going? Is Liang Guo's envoy in place?"

"Your Majesty, the preparations for the military examination have been completed. We just need to wait for your majesty to give your permission and the military examination can begin immediately! The noble envoy of Liang Guo has arrived. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"Okay!" Chen Huang suddenly remembered something again, but he was not in a hurry to announce the start of the martial arts competition. Instead, he asked: "I wish you Aiqing, I have understood the regulations of the martial arts competition. But this is the beginning. 'Preliminary test', I still don't quite understand, how does Zhu Aiqing prepare for the first test to select suitable candidates from more than [-] martial arts candidates?" As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present stared at Zhu Xiuyuan.

Especially Li Jiye, he asked about it on the way here, but Zhu Xiuyuan kept it secret for the time being and didn't tell him.

Now that Emperor Chen asked, Zhu Xiuyuan would definitely answer, so Li Jiye pricked up his ears.

"Your Majesty, the first martial arts test is actually very simple, that is...running!" Zhu Xiuyuan said loudly.

but--

As soon as Zhu Xiuyuan's clear voice fell, the entire audience, with so many people, fell silent. You could hear a needle drop. Everyone stared at Zhu Xiuyuan with different expressions.

Run?

Is it that simple?
This is a martial arts exercise, isn't it a very impressive exercise, but the first test event is actually... running!
Everyone subconsciously believes that running is a very simple thing. Even a lady who has never left the house can still run if necessary, let alone the candidates who come to participate in the martial arts examination.

These are all young and strong men who dare to participate in martial arts exercises. Don’t they know how to run?
This was not only the thought in the minds of the ministers, but also in the hearts of Emperor Chen and Li Jiye.

It’s child’s play to use running to decide the places for the preliminary examination!

The faint smile on the corner of Chen Huang's mouth suddenly solidified, like a sculpture.Concubine You, who was sitting next to him, was quick-thinking and immediately noticed the change in Chen Huang's expression.

Concubine You couldn't help but worry secretly, and quickly thought of ways...

"Hahaha!"

Suddenly, a person jumped out to break the silence, and everyone looked, but it turned out to be the Minister of the Ministry of War.

He laughed three times and stood out from the crowd, looking very proud.

He glanced at Zhu Xiuyuan with disdain, bowed his hands to Emperor Chen and said, "Your Majesty, Uncle Jiang Cheng's martial arts performance is determined by running, which is too childish! Who can't run? This is a well-known fact..."

The words of the Minister of War immediately "ignited" countless people who opposed the military exercise.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court has spent countless hours and invested heavily in preparing for the martial arts exams. However, the method used by Jiang Chengbo to decide the places for the preliminary exams is too childish, like a game for a three-year-old child. From this, it can be seen that all these martial arts exams are for three-year-olds. It’s for kids!”

Huang Song, the Minister of Rites, also jumped out.

He is Zhu Xiuyuan's old rival. Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, he wants to oppose Zhu Xiuyuan anyway.

Huang Song would not miss this opportunity to add insult to injury.

Seeing the two ministers coming out to speak, the military attachés couldn't help it. In fact, they were among the people who were most opposed to the military exercise.

Because military exercises are not very friendly to hereditary military generals like them.

Although the martial arts method is only performed in the Divine Thunder Army, who can predict what will happen in the future?What if Chen Huang decides to extend it to all armies across the country?It is also very possible.

"Father, my son thinks..."

However, just when the military attachés were about to jump out, the King of Jinling stepped out first.

The King of Jinling also hated Zhu Xiuyuan and this bullshit martial arts. If he could step on him in this matter, the King of Jinling would not look back.

"I believe that what the two ministers said is very reasonable! This kind of martial arts is nothing more than child's play. It only wastes people and money. It should be stopped immediately and Uncle Jiang Cheng should be punished for his crime of harming the country!"

King Jinling looked excited and grinned with joy.

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

As soon as the King of Jinling finished speaking, a large group of civil and military officials jumped out, all seconding the proposal with great momentum.

When these people met Zhu Xiuyuan in private, they turned around and walked away without even daring to meet and say hello.

But in this court, as long as there is a big shot taking the lead, they will attack in groups without hesitation.

Anyway, the law doesn’t punish the public, so it’s okay to let them do whatever they want.

When the King of Jinling saw so many people coming out to support him, he felt a sense of "one call and a hundred responses". He suddenly felt elated, his heart was filled with beauty, and the corner of his mouth grinned even wider, almost reaching the base of his ears.

However, the King of Jinling, who was extremely happy, suddenly caught a glimpse of Li Zhong, one of the big bosses at that time, who was also his grandfather, standing there without moving.

He neither supports them nor comes out to second his opinions...

King Jinling was stunned and felt dissatisfied. He was Li Zhong's grandson, but Li Zhong didn't come out to support him!
But then, King Jinling discovered that not only Li Zhong had not moved, but other big bosses, such as King Zhongshan, Yang Tingyu, King Jiangdu, King Poyang, King Zhenze, etc., had not moved either.

As for Zhu Xiuyuan, when King Jinling came to think of it, he should be trembling with fear.

But he just stood there, calm and composed, unfazed by favors and humiliations, with a normal look on his face!
It seems that they jumped out with excitement and momentum, but in the eyes of others, they are just a bunch of clowns.

This discovery took away most of the joy in King Jinling's heart.

If the big guys in the DPRK don't move, what kind of situation can they achieve with just these little minions?
