Pixian

Chapter 40

Chu Hao was startled, he didn't expect Chu Yunfei to let him participate in the spring test of martial arts.

In the system of Yuntian Empire, each generation of emperors attaches great importance to imperial examinations.It has almost become a clear symbol that the Yuntian Empire is different from other countries.Also due to the importance attached by the emperor's upper echelons, the local government naturally attached great importance to the imperial examinations. Whether it was literary or martial arts examinations, they were extremely important in the entire empire.

Generally speaking, to be able to pass the imperial examination in the capital, one must improve level by level.For example, the township examination, the provincial examination, and finally the palace examination.Every civilian or bureaucratic descendant who wants to climb up must walk such a staircase.

Once it succeeds, it means that it has transformed from a human to a dragon, and you can be proud and proud of your ancestors.

Therefore, every year, countless people step on this difficult ladder, countless people fall down with bruises, get up and walk again, countless people climb to the top, and it is different from then on.

Of course, there is a lot of trickery in this, but they are only concentrated in the provincial and provincial examinations. No one dares to cheat for personal gain in the palace examination, after all, it is in front of the emperor.

In the empire, although the prince's title can be hereditary, as long as the prince in the Taiping era has no merit, once he dies, his son will no longer be under his shadow, and the hereditary title will automatically decline and become the county king.And if you go any further, you will be the Marquis, and you will not be able to enjoy any royal benefits.

It's just that it is recognized as belonging to the royal family in terms of blood, but it is actually a phoenix that has been plucked, not even a bird.

Therefore, if you want to survive safely, you must pass the imperial examination before, whether it is civil or martial arts, as long as you pass the top three, you can get a title in time.Theoretically speaking, the title means that you can get a piece of land. Although you still don't have the title of a king, it is enough to live a lifetime without worry.

Of course, the crown prince can enjoy a lot of convenience. Like Chu Hao, he doesn't need any provincial examinations at all. With the status of the prince's son, he can directly participate in the palace examination.

This is also the plan that Chu Yunfei had been planning for Chu Hao before, so he invited Mr. Wan Lu to be Chu Hao's teacher. He only hoped that after losing his martial arts, Chu Hao could study well, take part in essay exams, and be safe. future.

"Father wants me to be the champion of martial arts?" Chu Hao pondered for a moment, then understood Chu Yunfei's intentions, and said, "However, with my current cultivation level, I'm afraid I can't even pass the provincial exam. Going to the palace exam, too I lost my father's face."

In this world, Chu Hao's motto is to keep a low profile, keep a low profile.After all, there are too many unknown and powerful enemies, showing yourself before you are fledgling is no different from committing suicide.It should be the reason why this son's body is restricted in the future.And for something as 'showy' as going to the palace examination, he didn't even have time to hide, so how could he agree so easily.

"Cultivation doesn't represent everything." Chu Yunfei said lightly, "Elder Liu told me about your performance during this period of time. You have cultivated more madly and worked harder than before. It seems that after three years It is a good thing that frivolity suddenly wakes up and makes you calm and prudent." After a pause, he took another sip of tea and said, "But I am your royal father, your father, I know you have **, but there are some things, but there is no need to hide them from me."

These words made Chu Hao break out in a cold sweat. He inadvertently turned his head to look at Mr. Liu, who had only mottled night shadows outside the window. Old Liu saw it.

Immediately, the figure of Old Liu became more profound in Chu Hao's heart.He didn't even know what else this frail old man, who had been by his father's side all year round and seemed harmless to humans and animals, had seen.

Although Chu Hao's expression was well controlled, Chu Yunfei still saw it, smiled lightly, and said, "Don't worry, Wang Er, Mr. Liu just occasionally saw you practicing boxing, and that boxing technique is a bit strange. Meaning, that’s why I reported to me, and didn’t mean to monitor you.”

Chu Hao smiled embarrassedly on the surface, and nodded, but he was more determined in his heart to make the magic weapon of Sumi mustard seed as soon as possible.

"Let's talk about martial arts again." Chu Yunfei didn't know what Chu Hao was thinking, so he said, "The martial arts palace test is not just a test of martial arts like the provincial test. The first is physical strength, the second is strategy, and the third is courage , the fourth is riding skills, the fifth is bow drawing, the sixth is eloquence, and the last is martial arts."

Chu Hao's head grew dizzy when he heard it. There are seven martial arts alone, which is really abnormal.Fortunately, this son has been naughty for the past three years. If he is really good at studying and gets into some essay exams by himself, it will not be a toss to death.

"Wang'er is born with great strength, so you don't have to worry about your physical strength. As for the other items, my father has already made arrangements in Duorui City. After the lantern festival is over, my father will arrange for you to go there."

Seeing that Chu Yunfei had already made up his mind, Chu Hao seemed to have no room to refute.Thinking that after the Lantern Festival in the capital, he might have a complete quarrel with that pair of dogs and men, thinking of protecting himself, he said: "I will listen to my father's arrangement."

"Very good." Chu Yunfei nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "Wang Er will read the art of war when he has time, and the matter of martial arts is finalized like this."

Chu Hao naturally had no choice but to respond.Chu Yunfei talked with Chu Hao for a while, and felt that it was getting late, so he said, "Your Majesty, rest, Father still has some official documents to deal with."

Seeing Chu Yun fly up, Chu Hao opened his mouth, "Father..."

"kindness?"

Chu Hao hesitated for a while, and then forced himself to suppress the question that was about to come out of his mouth, and lowered his head, "Father, don't be too tired, and pay attention to rest."

"Wang'er knows how to care about his father, very good." Chu Yunfei laughed loudly, then patted Chu Hao on the shoulder, paused, and said, "If you need anything, you can find Mr. Liu. "After saying this, before Chu Hao recalled the deep meaning of this sentence, he and Liu Lao left Lingyue Garden.

Looking at the backs of Chu Yunfei and Liu Lao, Chu Hao couldn't calm down for a long time.

After standing there for an unknown how long, Chu Hao calmed down and looked up at the night sky. The stars were shining brightly, but it was a rare night scene.It's just that there are too many stars, and the distance is too far... and Chu Yunfei's conversation made Chu Hao speed up his cultivation process.One month later, he had to face that mysterious and huge force, and he had to leave Beijing again, so the time was even tighter.

After resting, Chu Hao found Mr. Liu the next day, and took 1000 taels in the hand of this wrinkled old man who couldn't see the depth. Chu Hao hurried back to the yard and asked Xiaosi to find the materials. It took two days In that time, I refined Tiger Tendon Pills and Solid Pills.

With the first experience, the success rate of making solid pills and tiger tendon pills has become much higher this time, among which ten solid pills and four tiger tendon pills were refined.Look at the two small bottles in your hand.Chu Hao sighed, nearly 1000 taels of materials were gone, it was a waste of money.

Fortunately, the materials for the second- and third-grade pills that Chen Honghong gave him were not difficult to find, otherwise, it would be difficult to make two second-grade pills with 1000 taels, including the orthodox failure rate, let alone Such a bumper harvest.

After refining the two kinds of pills, Chu Hao was not in a hurry to start taking them now. The effect of the tiger tendon pills he had taken before had not been fully digested, so he still had to take it easy.

Coming out of the utility room, Chu Hao had eaten breakfast, and by the way, he asked the servants to find out that Tao Ranju's actions were really fast. The news of the auction of the flying sword spread throughout the entire capital in just two days.

While secretly praising Tao Ranju's efficiency and strength, Chu Hao laughed, and suddenly, he patted his head, finally remembering what he had missed.After tidying up again, he quickly called Xiaosi over and walked out of the mansion.

The place he went to was the well-known General Sun's Mansion in the capital.
