Chapter 250: Autumn Examination Once Every Three Years
The sudden appearance of two hundred Xuanjia troops suddenly plunged the official road into deathly silence.
Xuanjia Army.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Xuanjia Army has only been responsible for the safety of Emperor Suwei.
The only time Li Jing went into battle was when he led an army to annihilate Tuyuhun.
The Xuanjia Army swept across Tuyuhun's army.
Once again, he showed his talent in front of the world.
Today, the Xuanjia Army actually appeared here.
He also said that he was following the orders of his lord!
Who else but the emperor could order them to come here.
And just to protect these civilians?
Cheng Chumo looked at the powerful Xuanjia Army cavalry and finally let out a breath of turbidity.
If the Xuanjia Army hadn't arrived in time, Cheng Chumo might have really died here.
"Luo Tong, surrender, you can't leave. No one can escape from being surrounded by the Xuanjia Army." Cheng Chumo said to Luo Tong.
Luo Tong looked at the heavily armored Xuanjia army in front of him, with a hint of fear in his eyes.
He is naturally not afraid of the Xuanjia Army when fighting alone.
But with so many Xuanjia troops surrounding him, there was no way he could survive.
"Cheng Chumo, I didn't expect that even the Xuanjia Army was sent out. The emperor really values you." Luo Tong clenched his spear and his eyes fell on Cheng Chumo.
He couldn't figure out why the emperor valued Cheng Chumo so much.
Even the Xuanjia Army was sent out?
"I don't have such a big reputation. Just look back. I will intercede with Zhao Chen and not hold you responsible." Cheng Chumo looked at Luo Tong and said in a deep voice.
Cheng Chumo was a little embarrassed at the moment.
The appearance of the Xuanjia Army immediately reminded him of Zhao Chen.
Except for Zhao Chen, no one cares about the life and death of these villagers.
But if you want to mobilize the Xuanjia Army, you must have the emperor's Xuanjia Silver Rabbit Talisman.
Is it possible that the emperor even gave this thing to Zhao Chen?
That's the prince
You don’t have this qualification, do you?
Cheng Chumo's heart was surging, but his face remained expressionless.
The Xuanjia Army soldiers were slowly moving forward and had already passed the villagers' position.
On both sides, Luo Tong and the dozens of people he brought over were all blocked in the middle.
There are cliffs on the left side of the official road and mountains on the right side.
It is simply a dead end with no escape.
"Master Luo Tong, what should we do now?" A masked man shouted with a trembling voice.
The rest of the people also looked frightened.
No one would have thought that the Xuanjia Army would appear here.
"As a killer, if you can't complete the task, you will only die. Do you still need me to teach you?" Luo Tong tightened the spear in his hand again and said coldly.
No one has the courage to charge against the Xuanjia Army, which is armed to the teeth.
The Xuanjia Army was getting closer and closer, and the flashing cold light sent shivers down everyone's spine.
"Strangle, charge!" the leading Xuanjia Army soldier shouted coldly.
The war horses neighed and the rumble of horse hooves rushed towards Luo Tong and others in front.
…
"Why has it been so long and no one has come back?"
"Then Luo Tong and Cheng Chumo are on good terms, so they won't be unable to do anything, right?"
The residence of the Boling Cui family in Chang'an City.
Cui Yan stayed up all night, waiting for the news from Luo Tong.
Along with him was Wang Yi, the head of the Wang family in Taiyuan.
As for the other two, they just left not long ago.
Cui Yan couldn't help but feel a little impatient at this moment. According to the estimation of the time, Luo Tong and the others should be back at this moment.
It's been a long time since this happened, so why is there no one there?
Thinking of Zhao Chen's performance outside Wangyou Bookstore today, Cui
Yan couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Why is Brother Cui so anxious today?"
"Luo Tong has the handle in our hands. Even if it's Cheng Chumo, he will do whatever it takes."
"As for Zhao Chen, is it possible that Brother Cui still thinks that he can know our plan in advance?"
"Besides, what if you know?"
"Li Ruoshuang has returned to the Duke of Wei, Qin Huaiyu has returned to the Duke of Yi, and Cheng Chumo alone, how can he be Luo Tong's opponent?"
"Even the troops in Chang'an City have not seen any movements."
"So, it's a foolproof plan this time."
"Brother Cui, please calm down, have a drink with me, and wait for the news." Wang Yi explained to Cui Yan with a smile.
Since they wanted to take over the folks in Wannian County, they have been fully prepared. .??.
Knowing that Cheng Chumo was sending people back, they immediately arranged for Luo Tong to intercept and kill him.
Moreover, they also sent people to monitor other people around Zhao Chen. Even the troops under Li Jing also had people to monitor them.
The reason is that no one can help Zhao Chen.
"There is another army in Chang'an City that we cannot monitor. Brother Wang, have you forgotten?" Cui Yan looked at Wang Yi and said slowly.
But after saying this, even Cui Yan himself shook his head.
What he was talking about was the Xuanjia Army in the hands of the emperor.
The actions of the Xuanjia Army are not something they can monitor.
That is the emperor's biggest trump card.
Because of this, they did not believe that the emperor would send the Xuanjia Army out.
"I guess I'm overly worried. Na Luo Tong's skills are just like his father's, but I didn't expect that he is also a lover. For the sake of the girl from the Li family in Zhao County, he would not even let his good brother go." Cui Yan laughed. He said, a hint of teasing flashed in his eyes.
"That girl from Zhaojun's Li family is suffering from a strange disease. I heard that she needs to use 'dragon' to cure her illness."
Only Brother Cui has this 'dragon bone', so how can Luo Tong not obey your orders? "Wang Yi said with a smile.
"The 'Dragon Bone' is an heirloom of my Boling Cui family. How can it be handed over to outsiders? Once Cheng Chumo is killed this time, Luo Tong will be useless."
"Whether it's Cheng Yaojin or Zhao Chen, they will never let him go. 'Dragon Bone'? He will never get it in his life." Cui Yan looked at the vast darkness ahead, with a hint of calmness at the corner of his mouth.
…
The next morning, as soon as Zhao Chen got up, he saw officials from the Ministry of Rites delivering official uniforms.
Today is the day of the autumn examination that occurs once every three years.
As the deputy examiner of the autumn examination, Zhao Chen must report to the Yamen.
And reporting also requires wearing official uniforms.
The deputy examiner is not an actual official, but his status is equivalent to that of a minister of various ministries.
The official uniform is also of the fourth grade.
Scarlet official uniform, paired with a silver fish bag.
Uncle Fu was very happy when he saw the official uniforms sent by the Ministry of Rites.
He put on official uniform for Zhao Chen and tidied it up several times, for fear of making any mistakes.
Finally, he looked at Zhao Chen with a look of relief and said, "Although my young master has never been to school, he can supervise the autumn examinations of students all over the world. It's really unbelievable."
"This must be the spirit of the young lady and uncle in heaven protecting the young master."
As he spoke, Fu Bo shed tears.
"Uncle Fu, why are you still crying?" Zhao Chen was a little at a loss when he saw Uncle Fu shed tears.
He quickly took out a clean handkerchief and handed it to Uncle Fu.
"I just remembered that I was unworthy of the young lady's instructions before she died, and failed to take good care of you, the young master. Fortunately, the young master has worked hard on his own to achieve such an achievement today."
"When I go underground in the future, I will be able to give an explanation when I see the young lady. The young lady will definitely be happy when she hears about the young master's achievements." Uncle Fu wiped away his tears and spoke slowly to Zhao Chen.
