"You know what a fart!" Zhu Huixun rolled his eyes and said, "How can these things be compared with those dishes? Those are medicinal foods. If the brothers hadn't entered the promotion competition today, Uncle Songhuang wanted to celebrate them , it’s not easy for us to have a meal!”
Zhu Zhanji curled his lips and stopped talking, he didn't care about such a little appetite.
"Hahaha, Uncle Songhuang, did you watch the competition with my nephew today?"
Another quarter of an hour later, Zhu Mengcan was the first to appear in Chuhua Hall, and he burst out laughing before entering.
It can be heard that this guy is quite excited today.
"You kid, don't you know how to keep a low profile?" Zhu Song looked at Zhu Mengcan who walked in, and scolded with a smile: "With your three-legged skill, you just bully ordinary people. If you meet any bright and powerful fighters, you His mother is also a food delivery product!"
Zhu Mengcan's triumphant expression suddenly collapsed, and he felt a little downcast.
"Brother Meng Can, I, I went to watch your martial arts competition today. Brother Meng Can, you are in the arena, um, very, very heroic!"
Maybe seeing Zhu Mengcan's depression, Zhu Biying took two steps forward and said shyly.
The generosity and straightforwardness of Zhu Biying's expression of emotion surprised the four brothers Zhu Youxuan and Zhu Youxi who had just entered the door.
"Oh, who is heroic?" Zhu Youxi, the fifth son of Zhou Palace, asked curiously.
Hearing this, Zhu Biying's pretty face blushed, and her head dropped to her chest in embarrassment.
"Uh...well, who hasn't arrived yet? I'm hungry..." Zhu Mengcan rubbed the back of his head, talking about him from left to right.
"Yo, Brother Xie, Meng Can, you two came early!"
At this time, Zhu Yuexiu brought the two brothers Zhu Xunxiu and the two brothers Zhu Guijuan from the Liao Palace.
"Brother Xie, we just arrived." Zhu Mengcan smiled and said, "By the way, Uncle Songhuang has been waiting for us for quite a long time."
"I've seen Uncle Pine!"
At this moment, a group of little guys remembered to salute Zhu Song.
"Okay, that boy Zhanqi feels cold, so he won't be coming today. Since you are all here, then take your seats!"
Zhu Song waved his hand and told the little ones to sit down.
Everyone sat down, and Zhu Song ordered his servants to bring up the prepared hot dishes one by one. After a maid filled the wine for everyone, he raised his glass and said:
"You guys performed very well today. I don't expect you to be in the top ten, but I want you to do your best. Come on, uncle respects you!"
Feeling flattered, a group of little guys hurriedly picked up their wine glasses and said in unison: "Uncle Xie Song!" (To be continued.)
Chapter 356
When Zhu Song was entertaining the little ones at the mansion, the imperial court arranged a post for the envoys of the Joseon Kingdom.
"General Han, the official has already handed over the letter of credence. The lord of Honglu Temple said that because His Majesty Ming Emperor is dealing with military affairs these days, His Majesty Ming Emperor may not be able to deal with the letter of credence in a few days. .”
At the back of the posthouse, under a small tree in a single courtyard, Li Zhenyu, a North Korean envoy with tight muscles and a tall man, reported to a lean man with a rather refined temperament.
"Oh, just hand it in. I've already waited for the first ten days of the month, do you still care about waiting a little longer?" The man looked about 40 years old, but he said that he was an old man, which sounded very weird.
"By the way, General Han, you have been staying in the small courtyard for the past few days, maybe you don't know?"
Li Zhenyu nodded, as if thinking of something, and said: "A few days ago, His Majesty the Ming Emperor issued a decree in the entire Ming Dynasty army to hold a military competition in the army. The first day of the tournament."
"The whole army contest?" General Han frowned slightly, and opened his eyes, which were deep, calm, and distant. "Why is there a whole army contest?"
"I don't know the specific officials, but today all the military guards in the Ming Dynasty have launched selections. Each military guard is based on prefectures and counties. After the top ten soldiers are selected by the military guards of each prefecture and county, they can come. Participate in the final contest of the guards in Nanjing City."
Speaking of this, Li Zhenyu paused: "After the last ten generals are determined by each army guard, there will be another competition among the army guards until the last ten generals are selected. It is said that the last ten Famous generals will be bestowed with official ranks and titles by His Majesty the Ming Emperor, as well as a large amount of property, maids and domestic slaves."
"Oh, that's it, it sounds quite interesting!" Hearing Li Zhenyu's explanation, General Han's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he seemed to understand why Emperor Ming did this.
"General Han, there will be two promotion matches tomorrow, do you want to go and have a look?" Li Zhenyu asked.
"Tomorrow?" General Han suddenly chuckled, "Then go and see!"
……
Finally, after three days of the promotion competition, all the military guards of Ying Tianfu selected the top ten generals.
Of the thirteen little fellows who participated in this grand contest, only Zhu Youxuan, Zhu Mengcan, Zhu Yuexiu, and Zhu Guiqi, who had always been mediocre and unobtrusive, were left.
Among them, Zhu Mengcan was the most brilliant, he hardly encountered any obstacles, and won every contest with ease.
"Everyone, this martial arts competition between the military guards of Yingtianfu is officially over. Each guard has ten masters who have passed the promotion competition. I believe that in the next battle for the top ten of each guard to advance, I will be the top ten masters of each guard in Yingtianfu. It can also show its strength and even win the final top ten generals."
Zhu Song was dressed in soft armor, holding an iron loudspeaker in his hand, his voice was full of pride.
"My lord is right, how can our Yingtian Mansion be worse than other prefectures?"
"Where are we? At the feet of the emperor, the soldiers are naturally the most elite!"
"Look, they will definitely be able to beat the soldiers and generals of the other government troops to the ground, and take the position of the last general!"
As soon as Zhu Song's provocative words hit the ground, the people and soldiers who were watching below all yelled loudly.
Who doesn't want the people in their hometown to have honor? Even if the last ten soldiers of each guard are not from Yingtianfu, at least they represent Yingtianfu, and the people of Yingtianfu have glory in their faces, don't they?
"Everyone, please be quiet!" Zhu Song looked at the noisy crowd, and said, "This time, there are 160 candidates who have passed the pre-selection for this Yingtianfu army competition. Starting tomorrow, you and I will rest for ten days, and wait for the others to pass the prefectural screening. After the guards of the various armies arrive at Nanjing City, the final selection of the guards will be held. During this period, the masters of the guards who have passed the pre-selection will live in the barracks arranged by the Lord Long Live for you .”
When talking about this, Zhu Song said with a smile to the guards of each army standing on the ring; "During this period, you must not leave privately, and you must not fight privately. Otherwise, this king will disqualify you from the competition. And it will also order the Ministry of War to demote the officials to a lower level, and pay half a year for the pawns!"
Hiss, that's too ruthless!
Zhu Song's two rules are set to death, once someone really breaks the rules, it will definitely be Tai Sui's head, just wait for bad luck.
"Okay, you all come with me!" No matter what the people present thought, they didn't have a copper coin relationship with Zhu Song. He only needed to complete the tasks assigned by Zhu Di.
soon.
The army guards, Jinwuwei, Jinyiwei and other soldiers who won the last ten positions followed Zhu Song closely and headed towards Nanjing City.
Zhu Mengcan, Zhu Youxi and other four little fellows did not dare to neglect, and walked towards the city closely behind Zhu Song.
But after entering the city, the faces of Zhu Youxuan and others became more and more strange, because they walked this road once or twice, and it was clearly the Jinyiwei barracks they had trained for nearly three months.
"Brother Youxi, isn't it going to the 'Beast Camp'?" Zhu Youxi was placed in the vanguard of the government army, Zhu Mengcan deliberately fell behind a few steps, and leaned closer to Zhu Youxi and said.
As for the "beast camp" that Zhu Mengcan said, it was actually the small military camp they used for training before. This is what the little guys call the small military camp.
Because in the eyes of the little guys, this small military camp is simply a place to train wild animals. This is the place where they have suffered the most since they were young. They don't want to come back here in their entire lives.
"It should be... right." Zhu Youxuan's face was a little pale, "Uncle Songhuang doesn't want to torment us in the future, does he?"
