Chapter 98 Wu Wu Second

The dragon flag is flying in front of Tai Chi Hall. From the dragon throne in Song Ji, you can see Chengtian Gate, Zhuque Gate, and Zhuque Street, which runs across Chang'an and to the end of the sky.

Around Baiyu Square, the core of the top floor of Dayue is almost all gathered here, sitting upright, silently waiting for a small competition that seems not very important but is related to the majesty of the two countries.

Eunuch Jia, the general manager of the Daweng, served as the emcee of this competition because of his position and status in the martial arts world. At this time, wearing a big red robe and holding a whisk in his hand, he walked down the imperial road and came to the center of the square in front of the hall:

"The envoy of Qi State came to Chang'an to meet the emperor. The two countries lived safely together and had been in contact with each other. My Dayue was still martial, and strange people appeared in the mountains and fields. The emperor intended to set up ten martial masters to inspire the martial artists to reshape their martial virtues. The day before yesterday, the envoy of Qi wanted to make friends with martial arts and have worked hard with me. The emperor agreed and set up a martial arts beside the Taiji Hall today. I hope that the men of both countries would express their feelings without any grudges..."

The so-called "committing friends through martial arts" is just a scene. Dayue of the Northern Qi Dynasty is still a truce rather than a truce. This arena is a competition between the two countries, and it is like holding a sports meeting at home, saying that it is "friendship first and competition second". In fact, they are all fighting for life.

Eunuch Jia's voice was very loud, but it was extremely loud. Thousands of people came into the square to hear clearly, all of whom were eagerly looking forward to it. The envoys of the Northern Qi Dynasty stood up and bowed to the emperor in front of the hall to thank him.

After Eunuch Jia finished speaking, he waved his whisk and the Imperial Guard moved all the weapons that could be found in the world to the surroundings:

"The rules of warriors are standing and the other lying down.

As the saying goes, "Swords have no eyes." Those who are on the stage are conceited by their own life and death, but only those who have martial virtues are warriors. They must also gain the chance of losing and win.

Everyone, let’s start!”

clang--

The half-man-high gong sounded, and a little noise appeared in front of the Tai Chi Hall, all of which looked at the team of envoys of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Song Ji held the teacup with one hand, his expression was plain and he couldn't tell the thoughts.

Zhang Xiang, Liu Yunlin and others pressed their swords to protect the surroundings, looking up at the sea of ​​clouds in the sky from time to time, as if they were worried that it would rain disturb the emperor's interest.

The empress dowager behind the pearl curtain was obviously interested because she was doing nothing on weekdays and sat upright and waited without turning her eyes.

Xu Buling looked at the Queen Mother and had no interest in the scene below.

Stepping on—

After the gong sounded, a figure appeared first in the square, which was thousands of steps long and wide.

Zuo Yezi walked forward with a long sword, and looked at thousands of gazes as if he had not seen them. He walked straight past dozens of lamp posts standing on the square, and came to the center of the entire imperial city. He raised his hand and bowed to the gilded soft couch above the imperial road:

"Foreign minister Zuo Yezi, see Emperor Dayue."

"No gift."

Song Ji raised his dragon's sleeves and supported him, following the process, looking at the young hero sitting all over the place:

"Zuo Yezi is a personal disciple of the Qi State Master. He thinks he has a good career, but is anyone willing to face the challenge?"

On the side of the square, under the eaves where young people gather, many Chang'an leaders looked at each other for a few times, and wanted to send someone to try the depth first.

Zuo Yezi didn't mean to wait quietly, so he bowed to Emperor Dayue again and said aloud:

"The foreign minister Zuo Yezi came to ask for advice today as a warrior. His Majesty the Emperor agreed to respond to the rules of the warrior. However, the warriors should have a good start. There are so many pillars of the Dayue Kingdom present, if they only watch a few juniors fight, they would not have any interest."

As soon as this statement was spoken, it attracted everyone's attention.

Song Ji held the teacup, his expression as lukewarm as ever:

"What kind of lottery do you want?"

Zuo Yezi held the three-foot green breeze and looked at the whole field:

"I heard that His Majesty the Emperor wants to set up the ten martial masters. If the foreign ministers win the title in front of the Taiji Palace today, can the emperor give the golden plaque of 'the world' to the foreign ministers in advance?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was filled with an uproar.

Zhang Xiang pressed Yan Lingdao and frowned, and said coldly: "This guy was so angry. He thought he was just going to have a Wu Kui position, but he never wanted to be the 'No. 1 in the world'. The frog in the well did not know that the sky was high and the earth was thick!"

Zhang Tingbao was also a little annoyed: "It's just a competition among peers. Even if I really win, I can't be the best in the world. How can I say "give it in advance"? If my Dayue's golden plaque is in Northern Qi, wouldn't it be a joke for the people in the world to death..."

There are constant noise and sarcasm.

Song Ji also raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously thinking that the young man below was too angry. He originally meant to give him the "Tenth No. 1 in the World" and "No. 1 in the World" even if he decided to do so, no one would convince him.

The queen mother turned her head and whispered, "No, this kid is even more crazy than you. There are many strange people in the world. From ancient times to the present, all those who dare to be called the "No. 1 in the world" are all famous people who have been famous all over the world since childhood. I have never heard of his name..."

Xu Buling shook his head and chuckled, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and finally looked at Zuo Yezi.

The difference between self-pride and self-confidence is a world of difference. Those who dare to say this in front of the Tai Chi Hall will at least be brave enough.

Among all the officials, the censor Qi Xinghan was the most furious. When he stood up, he sarcastically said:

"The juniors' exchanges are like children's play in the eyes of the elders. Even if the emperor is willing to give a golden plaque, you, a child with yellow mouth, have not yet won't be as proud as the elders, how dare you take over the 'the best in the world' in front of the elders? Could it be that your husband from Qi State is not humble and knows his own sense of his elders and his superiority?"

Usually, everyone regards Qi Xinghan as a stinky stone in the pit, but this kind of occasion of external criticism is used as the backbone. At this time, they nodded to express their agreement with this sentence.

Zuo Yezi raised his hand, his eyes slightly awkward:

"Old and young, my husband can teach you naturally, but 'there is no second in martial arts'!

I am a first-class foreign minister at Zuo Yezi, and I am only twenty years old. If I can stand in front of Emperor Dayue today, I think the result will not change in ten years. What's wrong with taking over the golden plaque of "The No. 1 in the World" in advance?

If you are not convinced, you can come and take it away. Why use your lip service to judge the level of the situation?"

Qi Xinghan was speechless immediately.

This is the core of the dispute between civil and military affairs. When scholars meet soldiers, they can’t explain clearly. The warrior only recognizes the one standing. If they are beaten down in front of the emperor by a yellow-haired child, so Da Yue is indeed the first. As for the elder brother Jia who is robbed back, Da Yue can’t afford to lose this person.

The Grand Marshal Liu Pingyang was originally a warrior. At this time, he was obviously annoyed by this young boy. He slapped the table and said angrily:

"The emperor appointed Dayue Ten Martial Masters. You are a foreign envoy from Northern Qi. How can you ask me Dayue's number one in the world? You should ask the monarch of Qi."

These words were a bit unreasonable, and even Song Ji frowned.

Sure enough, Zuo Yezi immediately curled the corner of his mouth when he heard this, spread his hands to look at the civil and military officials:

"The world is in the world, under the sky.

His Majesty Emperor Dayue is the ten martial masters in the world. Why can’t I, Zuo Yezi, take it?

Could it be that in the eyes of all the generals and ministers, Emperor Dayue’s vision is only within nine 280 states, and the territory outside, such as the Lingnan Road that has not yet been recovered, is not considered the world? My monarch of Qi has judged the heroes of the world, but he has never missed one of Dayue’s talents!"

"you--"

Liu Pingyang was furious immediately, his face turned pale, but he couldn't say another word. He was jealous and cheered to make matters more than the emperor's vision. The Taiwei, who commanded the soldiers of Dayue, was really too petty just now.

The opponent caught him and his feet were exaggerated. The square was silent. Qi Xinghan almost fainted by his teammate.

The Empress Dowager was also full of anger, but she had no choice but to look at Song Ji in a blink of an eye to see how she was right.

Song Ji was free and easy and clapped his hands: "I just don't know how good my skills are. If you can stand to the end today, I will give you a golden plaque of 'Qingkui'. As for 'The No. 1 in the world', I will have the ability to come and get it by myself in ten years."

The meaning of "Qingkui" is simple and clear, which means that the leader among young people is different from Shiwukui, and his reputation is also good, so it can be said that the handling is very clever.

However, the leader of the younger generation of Dayue is in Northern Qi, which is also not very nice.

The young people such as Situ Huyu, Tang Jiuer, Zhang Tingbao, etc. who were preparing to play today were all restless. They dared not accept the golden plaque of Shi Wukui, but this "Qingkui" can be fought for. Wu Wu is the second, all of who is about the same age. It is hard to say who wins and who loses when they fight.

In the center of Tai Chi Square, Zuo Yezi still spoke arrogantly. After hearing Song Ji's words, he raised his hand and said:

"Thank you for your gift, ten years later, foreign ministers will definitely come to the appointment to take away the 'No. 1 in the world' golden plaque."

"snort--"

This statement annoyed the civil and military officials of the court who were watching. Liu Pingyang had just lost an adult, and was furious and slapped the table:

"Changrun, go up."

Liu Changrun, who was sitting behind, was dissatisfied with the arrogant attitude of the Northern Qi foreign envoys. Without any hesitation, he stood up and walked down the steps of the side hall, took a big gun from the weapon stand, and went directly to Zuo Yezi...
