Ballad of Tianmen

The North Campus of Xuancheng Academy was originally a place for students to practice martial arts.There is a wooden platform there, which is usually used for fighting.In this academy, there is an unwritten rule that every new day and the fifteenth day, there will be a competition among the students who are proficient in martial arts to test their monthly learning results, and some outstanding ones will be directly awarded official positions .

Princess Xuancheng will go to this competition in person. Although it is rumored that Her Majesty Xuancheng only loves confidante, but she is the jewel of emerald green feathers, Yaobi Luoyi, elegant and graceful, and is also admired by many scholars. People can't get it, but they can also see it.If he is favored by His Royal Highness Xuancheng, it is okay to die at this time.Of course, as the so-called rivals in love meet each other, they are very discerning. There are also people who attack and hurt people on the ring, until a life lawsuit is brought about. Sword, the tip of the sword is stained with white powder, whoever hits the opponent's chest first wins.

"Unintentionally, come with me, I'll take you somewhere." Early in the morning, Feng Jing came and knocked on the door, and it was rare for her to smell of alcohol today.

On the school grounds, the students were all dressed in red outfits, and the white spots on the chest were more obvious.They lined up neatly under the ring.On both sides of the arena, there are places where the master and some nobles sit.Feng Jing is one of the students, but her status is very special, she actually sits under Master Canglan and does not keep company with the students.

"Today is a routine competition. After listening to the sound of three drums, you will be on the stage by name. However, before that, there is one more thing to announce. This time is different from usual. Six winners will be selected and directly entered the Eastern Army. The Western Army is serving as the school lieutenant." Cang Lan's voice rang out over the school grounds, carrying inner strength, and it was transmitted to the ears of all the scholars present.

The soldiers and horses of the capital of the Chu army were divided into four armies in the southeast, northwest, and guarded the capital.The Southern Army is under the command of Wei Wei, while the Northern Army is under the name of Zhi Jinwu. Both armies are served by children of innocent backgrounds and abide by military discipline.The Eastern Army and Western Army, which are composed of criminals or refugees, have a much weaker sense of existence than these two soldiers.The Eastern Army and the Southern Army were both soldiers guarding the palace gate, while the Western Army and the Northern Army were both soldiers guarding the Pucheng Gate.Wei Wei and Zhi Jinwu are Li Hao's cronies. This is what Chu Feihuan is most worried about. In order to keep Pucheng and the palace safe, she must take some measures.

Chu Feihuan's move also followed Yin Wuwu's opinion, and started with the Eastern and Western armies that had always been lazy and uncontrolled.The lieutenant of the middle base is in charge of the inside and outside of the base gate; the lieutenant of the cavalry is in charge of the knights; the lieutenant of the infantry is in charge of the Yuanmen garrison in Yiyangyuan, the southwest suburb of Pucheng; the lieutenant of the Yueqi is in charge of the Yueqi; ; Huben Xiaowei is in charge of a light car.

"Some things to say first. Once you take the post of captain, you will train with the soldiers in the army. You will wear three layers of armor, body armor, thigh armor, and greaves every day. You will wear a heavy helmet and use a twelve-stone crossbow. Fifty arrows, He Ge, a sword, food for three days, and a load-bearing run, from dawn to noon, running a hundred miles. This is much more difficult than the training in the academy. Think about it carefully, everyone. If you spend the whole day in the academy, you should join our Chu army and become a hero of the generation." As soon as these words came out, there were voices of discussion among the students, and there were actually some people who withdrew from the queue.Chu Feihuan glanced at them calmly, but said nothing.

"Schools from rich families like this come to the academy to fool around. It's really troublesome for them to join the army." Feng Jing whispered into Yin Wuxin's ear.

When a master uses a sword, even though the flowers are on the branches, he can still see his strength.Some people are purely flamboyant, and some people can put on a good appearance. There are only a few people worth seeing, but it is enough to select six people.After all, they are not those swordsmen in the Jianghu.Yin Wuyi curled his lips and retracted his eyes, feeling a little bored.In September, when the wind blows, it is already a little cool, and the sky is extremely clear, without a single cloud in the distance, and occasionally a flock of birds fly by, adding a few traces.His eyes rolled around, and finally fell on Chu Feihuan's face.

She looked at the audience seriously, and the subtle expression on her face showed her attitude.When her long and narrow eyebrows were lifted up, she showed a bit of heroic spirit. Her thin lips were always slightly pursed, and it was rare to see her sincere smile, let alone the appearance of laughing heartily.In an environment full of power and calculations, it is always tiring to be forced to make layers of camouflage.This person is very different from before, but why is he not?After waking up from her long thoughts, she met Chu Feihuan's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"The fight between these students is naturally not as good as mine." She murmured silently, but Yin Wuyi understood her meaning all of a sudden, her face was slightly red, her eyebrows and eyes were full of anger, and she stared at it very quickly. Looking back, my heartbeat was stronger than before.

If the competition ended like this, it would be a complete thing to choose six people from among them, but something happened unexpectedly.A strand of hair was picked up by the strong wind, carrying a murderous aura towards his face. Chu Feihuan sat there with a leisurely smile, and sat still without moving.Another burst of energy came rushing forward, and the stone that was exposed by someone turned around and hit the flagpole next to the drum, and it only snapped and broke.

The people on the stage were stunned for a moment, not knowing what happened.Yin Wuxin put her hands into her sleeves, her face remained unchanged, while Chu Feihuan gave her a meaningful look.

"His Royal Highness Xuancheng is very bold, and the other girl is really handsome." With a hearty smile, a man in black landed on the ring and kicked each other. Was kicked down.The man was dressed in commoner clothes, with an epee behind his back. His long black hair was not crowned, but was draped messily behind his head, with only a belt tied between his foreheads.His skin was dark, as if he had been exposed to the wind and the sun, with stubble on his lips, and a word tattooed on his left cheek.A person who has been subjected to facial tattooing is a criminal at first sight.He cupped his hands in Yin Wuxin's direction, turned around again, and made a bow to Chu Feihuan.

"Your Excellency—" Chu Feihuan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Assassin too." The man replied with a smile, "Your Highness, do you remember that the sneak attack you encountered on the street that day was him."

"Oh?" Chu Feihuan was slightly interested in his words, "Do you think you can escape by assassinating Bengong here today?"

"No, no, no." This man's body was full of ruffianism, and it seemed a bit weird when these polite words came out of his mouth.Spit at himself, he spread his hands, and said, "I heard that this Xuancheng Academy accepts talented people from all over the world. Because I failed to complete the task of assassinating His Highness, my father is so poor that he has no money to buy wine. This academy should support me, right?"

"A talented person? Do you think you are?" Chu Feihuan asked meaningfully.

"At least he's more capable than the ones below. With my master's talent, it's more than enough to be a general." The man grinned, looking very confident.

"Hehe. You were once a prisoner and received punishment."

"Why, look down on me?" The man was a little displeased, raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly, and said impatiently, "Shouldn't those corrupt officials and tyrants be killed when they colluded together? Let me tell you, I am proud of the tattoos on my face." Yes, you high-ranking people know what a fart. Be clear, should I accept it or not? If not, I can only go back to my earlier activities."

"Who asked you to assassinate me?" Chu Feihuan asked after a moment of silence.

"Sorry, but the employer's information cannot be disclosed." The man spread his hands helplessly.

"it is good."

"What do you mean, what do you want? Be clear, I don't want to go around with you guys."

"Why do you talk like that? You are so bold!" Before Chu Feihuan could speak, someone from the whispering voice came out. Seeing that it was the student who was kicked down by the man, he was still very unconvinced when he thought about it. With a local expression on his face, he jumped onto the stage and said, "I'm not convinced. I was unprepared just now. Let's have a fair competition." The man didn't speak, but looked him up and down once, and then acted Looking at his face, he picked his nostrils with his hands.

"You—" the student trembled with anger, and rushed forward with his sword in hand.

The result of this competition is of course without any suspense.

"What's your name?" Chu Feihuan asked after reading it.

"If you don't want to change your name, if you don't want to change your surname, thank you Tianqing!"
