Chapter 41 The assessment begins
If Fang Yue can pass the exam for Wu Xiucai this time, then it is reasonable for Zhang Boyang to match him with Zhang Shu.
But at this moment, he has not participated in the assessment.
Moreover, he has only been practicing martial arts for a year, and his progress in cultivation is pretty good.
As for his strength that surpasses the same level of martial artists, he has not revealed it again. Even Fang Hu only knows that his strength is very strong, surpassing the ordinary martial artists who have passed the Mopi Pass.
But Fang Hu does not know how strong it is.
The tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.
Fang Yue only needs to show a little bit of his strength. If he shows too much extraordinaryness, it may not be a good thing for him.
Weak foundation can be easily strangled.
A dead genius is not a genius.
After all, he is deeply baptized by online articles. Not to mention learning the Ten-mile Slope Sword God, but he still understands the principle of properly hiding his strength and keeping his trump card.
However, Zhang Boyang certainly does not know these things.
Therefore, Zhang Boyang took the initiative to match him with Zhang Shu, and he really thinks highly of him.
However, although Zhang Shu looks good, her temper is really bad, and she is not a good match.
For a moment, Fang Yue could only praise Zhang Shu against his will, and pondered how to refuse in his heart.
After all, if there is no solid reason, it will hurt the harmony if he refuses rashly.
"Yue'er, this is not difficult. You can get engaged to Shu'er first, and then officially get married after your elder brother gets married."
At this time, Zhang Boyang had finished the tea in the cup in his hand. Seeing Fang Yue hesitant, he thought Fang Yue did not want to get married before his elder brother, so he comforted him.
As for whether Fang Yue disagreed with this marriage, it was not in his consideration.
In today's world, the marriage of children is the parents' order and the matchmaker's words.
In fact, he could discuss it with Fang Hu and then tell Fang Yue.
And he was sure that he could get Fang Hu to agree, and even Fang Yue's parents to agree to this marriage.
After all, with his family background, Fang Yue would have an advantage in marrying with Fang Yue.
"Dad, what did you say? I don't want to marry him!"
However, just when Zhang Boyang thought that the matter was settled, Zhang Shu's angry voice rang out.
Then, he saw Zhang Shu, wearing a light-colored Luo skirt, running in from outside angrily.
She was going to the city to attend a poetry meeting today. Just as she was about to leave, she learned that her father was going to marry her to Fang Yue.
Fang Yue was the same as Fang Ergou, and even Fang Hu was similar to those country folk and poor relatives in her eyes.
Especially during the time she lived in Daliushu Village, she had more prejudices against country people.
How could she, Zhang Shu, marry such a country bumpkin!
"Shu'er! Shut up! Apologize to your junior brother!" Zhang Boyang originally felt that the matter was settled, but he didn't expect Zhang Shu to be so ignorant of the seriousness of the matter.
"Humph, I won't apologize to such a country bumpkin! If you want to marry, go ahead, I won't!" Zhang Shu snorted and choked.
If Zhang Shu had just kept quiet, he could still find excuses to get away with it, and the matter would not be unmanageable.
But now, Zhang Shu has become even more aggressive, and this marriage is definitely off.
With a grudge in his heart, even if they are forced to get together, there will be chaos in the future.
Seeing his daughter so willful and willful, Zhang Boyang was furious.
"Pa!"
He slapped her hard.
The next moment,
The solid table was immediately broken apart.
"You want to hit me for an outsider?" Zhang Shu looked shocked, as if she didn't expect Zhang Boyang to do this.
But soon, after reacting, she ran out crying.
After this incident, Fang Yue naturally couldn't stay any longer.
He immediately said goodbye to Zhang Boyang and left.
Of course, the marriage that was originally hard to refuse could not be continued.
~~~~~~
The next few days.
Every morning, Fang Yue would go out to find a secluded place to practice standing meditation, and then walk around Xiahe County.
Time passed in a peaceful life.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the Wu Xiucai examination.
Fang Yue woke up early in the morning of this day.
It was still dark outside the window, and the sun had not risen yet.
It was already late autumn, and the moment before dawn was the coldest time of the day.
The young warriors in the inn who were preparing to participate in the Wu Xiucai had already packed up, and soon twos and threes of young warriors took their things out and headed for the parade ground of the county government.
Some people were full of confidence, while others just wanted to gain some experience.
Some people were mixed with joy and sorrow, and hesitated.
It was a flying insect that flew into the fire, or a nirvana that changed their destiny!
At the moment of Chenshi.
In the first year of Wuding in the Wei Dynasty, the first Wu Xiucai examination in Xiahe County finally arrived.
Unlike the civil examination, the martial examination only needed to check the identity, hometown and age of the participants to prevent substitution.
There are not many other ways to prevent cheating. The military imperial examination tests hard skills. If you don't have enough strength, you can't cheat.
The county government training ground, on the high platform in the center.
Liu Zheng, the chief officer of Xiahe County, wearing a dark green official uniform with a rhinoceros embroidered on his chest, sat in the center of the high platform.
On both sides of him, according to the size of the official position, the senior officials of Xiahe County sat respectively. But it is obvious that the closer to Liu Zheng, the more military officers there are.
The few civil officials were all on the edge of the seats, and seemed insignificant.
Although it was the first time to hold the Wu Xiucai examination, and the maximum age of the participants was limited to no more than 25 years old.
However, there were nearly 200 martial artists who met the requirements and came to participate in the examination.
However, compared with the scale of 600 to 700, or even 1000 to 2000, it was still far behind.
This is the poor civil service and rich martial arts. Even if there is talent, as long as it is not the top talent, it is difficult to provide for the needs of practice.
Therefore, in fact, most of the hundreds of candidates who came to participate in the Wu Xiucai examination were born into large landowners.
Only the rich can fully support a martial artist.
As for the rest, the poor martial artists who are similar to Fang Yue are less than two hands.
Obviously, it is so rare and difficult to support a martial artist.
~~~~~~
Not long after, after verifying the identity of the candidates.
The gongs and drums sounded nine times in a row, and the Wu Xiucai examination officially began.
Fang Yue ranked No. 98, relatively in the middle, and it would take some time for him to take the test.
Because it was the first time to hold the Wu Xiucai examination, the basic examination items were reduced from the Wu Juren examination subjects.
They were strength and confrontation.
The strength test was to see if the conditions were met, and the confrontation test was to determine the ranking.
"With a ratio of less than seven to one, it felt like the competition was not that fierce."
Fang Yue was familiar with the rules of the competition, and after seeing the number of participants today, he felt more confident.
