Liang Guo.

Gyeonggi Province.

The capital is Chang'an.

The news that Chen Guo is about to hold a martial arts competition in two months' time has reached Liang Guo's court.

After Emperor Liang learned the news, he summoned all the officials in the court overnight to discuss the matter.

Tai Chi Palace.

Liangyi Hall.

All the kings and ministers of the Liang Kingdom have arrived.

"Nan Chen has done something about martial arts. I just checked the notice carefully and found that there are a lot of merits in it. Therefore, I summoned all my beloved ministers to discuss whether Chen Guo's martial arts strategy is applicable to me. Liang Kingdom." Emperor Liang looked down at his highness and ministers and said loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jiye, the Qianwang of the Liang Kingdom, came out to report: "Father, my son and I have also carefully reviewed the military examination notices of the Chen Kingdom."

"Oh, the emperor also knows? Then you can tell me." Emperor Liang straightened his sitting posture.

"Father, I think that the various assessments in Chen's martial arts examination, such as the preliminary test, archery, martial arts, martial arts, literary test, etc., are very complete and very suitable for the situation of our Liang Kingdom. As for the rest, such as bonuses and compensation Travel expenses, etc., are dispensable to us in Liang."

"Through the selection of military examinations, many brave people among the people can be discovered. If all these people are used by our court, then the strength of the Liang Kingdom's military will be even higher!" Li Jiye handed over his hand and said.

Emperor Liang nodded slightly. In fact, what he was thinking coincided with what Li Jiye said.

Even a dim-witted master like Emperor Chen could see the beauty of martial arts, which could strengthen the imperial power! Which emperor would not be tempted?

The Emperor of Liang was far more shrewd than ordinary people, so how could he not see the beauty of martial arts?

Liang Guo is going to hold a martial arts competition!

After Emperor Liang read the notice about the martial arts competition, he secretly made up his mind!

"Father, this is not appropriate, this is absolutely inappropriate!" At this time, an objectionable voice suddenly sounded.

The civil and military officers of the Manchu Dynasty looked at the sound, but it turned out to be King Zhong. The King Zhong had already come out and stood side by side with King Qian Li Jiye.

"Oh, why does the emperor think it's inappropriate?" Emperor Liang asked calmly, looking at Prince Zhong.

King Zhong glanced at Li Jiye secretly, bowed his hands and said: "Father, let's not talk about it, this martial arts can discover talents among the people and use them for our court. For one thing, this martial arts is not suitable for implementation in our country of Liang. !”

"Father, our generals at all levels in the Liang Army have always inherited their father's legacy from their sons. This has been stable for hundreds of years."

"If this military exercise is implemented, the civilian talents selected by it will inevitably occupy the positions of generals in the army..."

"If the son of a general cannot inherit his father's legacy, there will be chaos! Father, please give me a lesson!" King Zhong looked excited.

"Your Majesty, please give me a clear warning!" Most of the civil and military officials in the court came out to second the proposal.

Because martial arts will harm their fundamental interests.

Emperor Liang looked calm and calm, as if he had expected such a scene.

He only looked at Li Jiye and asked: "My lord, what do you think?"

Li Jiye was even more calm and composed, as if he had been prepared for it.

He took a step forward and cupped his hands and said: "Father, and all ministers, when did our great Liang Kingdom become worse than Chen Kingdom?"

"What does His Highness King Qian mean by these words? Our great Liang Kingdom is dozens of times more powerful than Nanchen..."

"How can a weak Chen compare with my strong Liang!"

"We, the Liang State, stand proudly in the world. We resist the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the north, control the Western Regions in the west, frighten the Tibetan people in the south, and look down upon the Yan State, forcing Nan Chen to pay tribute every year... Our Liang State is the most powerful country in the world, how can we be compared to Nan Chen Difference!"

"What does His Majesty King Qian mean by these words?"

…

Li Jiye's words instantly ignited the civil and military affairs of the entire dynasty.

Li Jiye turned around slowly and looked down upon the ministers.

Although he was thin in stature, he was able to withstand all kinds of gazes from the civil and military officials of the dynasty.

You must know that in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty in the Liang Kingdom, military attaches were military attaches and civilian officials were also military attaches. If necessary, civilian officials could also go into battle to kill the enemy!

They are all a bunch of ruthless people!

In the entire Liangyi Palace, Li Jiye and Prince Na Zhong were probably the only ones who were a little more elegant.

He has the demeanor of a Confucian general.

The rest are a bunch of roughnecks.

"Okay, all the ministers keep saying that our country, Liang, is stronger than Nanchen."

"But as for the military examination, Nanchen has already vigorously promoted it. As far as I know, the generals at all levels in Nanchen's army also inherited their father's legacy!"

"But why can Nan Chen continue to promote martial arts without fear of chaos in the law of inheriting his father's legacy? And our country, Liang, is dozens of times more powerful than Chen, why do the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty change their minds when talking about martial arts?"

"If this is the case, I would like to ask all the ministers, is Liang Guo worse than Nan Chen? Do we have no courage?"

Li Jiye spoke slowly, and although his tone was soft, his words were like steel, making all the ministers lower their heads.

"this……"

Ministers, you looked at me and I looked at you, but for a moment I couldn't find any words to refute.

yes!

Chen Guo dared to carry out the military strategy and was not afraid of chaos in the army. But Liang Guo boasts that it is dozens of times stronger, so why are you afraid of this?

Although this is a bit sophistical, the civil and military officials of the Liang Kingdom were all a group of arrogant people, so they just fell into this trap.

"But... sons have inherited their father's legacy and have been in the military for hundreds of years..." someone said.

"Continue?" Li Jiye laughed dumbly, "If I, Emperor Gaozu, had not taken the world from the hands of the previous dynasty, the previous dynasty would still be continuing!"

After Li Jiye finished speaking, he paid homage to Emperor Liang: "Father, there are regulations in Nanchen's martial arts examinations. Current generals and their heirs are not allowed to participate. They are only selected from among the people."

"If our country, Liang, wants to implement martial arts, we can abolish this article and allow officials and their heirs to participate. At that time, everyone will be ranked according to their abilities, and those who are capable will be promoted and those who are mediocre will be demoted. In this way, our Liang will be stronger The army of the country!"

Li Jiye said slowly.

"Well, the emperor's suggestion is very good!" Emperor Liang clapped his hands and laughed, "As far as I know, some children of generals do not want to join the army and inherit their father's legacy."

"There are also generals whose heirs have little talent but occupy high positions... If the emperor's improved martial arts selection is adopted, all the above problems can be solved in one fell swoop. This is a good strategy for running the army! What do you think, dear ministers?" Emperor Liang Scanning the officials.

"this……"

The ministers looked at each other and exchanged glances.

"Old minister seconded the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

…

In an instant, all civil and military officials in the court seconded the proposal.

Looking at it now, if generals at all levels in the army are selected through military examinations, it is just one more process than before.

It can also solve the problem of "the mediocre occupying high positions". This alone can make most people excited.

At that time, in the martial arts assessment, everyone will rely on their abilities, and no one can blame anyone...

In this way, a kind of "healthy competition" will be formed in the military.

This will increase the overall combat effectiveness of the Liang Army!

There were many people with lofty ideals in the court of Liang State. After careful analysis, they all believed that this was indeed a good strategy for running the army!

Therefore, all the ministers seconded the proposal and agreed to implement martial arts in Liang State.

When King Zhong who raised objections saw this, he also changed his mind and seconded the proposal.

However, his face as he bowed down was already so gloomy that it could make water flow.

Liang Guo also wanted to hold martial arts examinations, so the matter was settled.

Next, there is the question of how to hold martial arts exercises.

Li Jiye came out to pay his respects and said: "Nan Chen will hold a martial arts competition in two months. I would like to go and observe it in person. Please give me your permission."

"Okay, then I will prepare a letter of credence and send it to Emperor Chen to facilitate this matter!" Emperor Liang nodded.

"My dear father, I thank you!"

…

King Qian Li Jiye retired from court and returned home. As soon as he sat down in the hall, his servants came to report that Princess Anle had arrived.

"Brother Imperial, Brother Imperial..."

As soon as the servant finished speaking, Princess Anle Li Qingnu rushed in.

"Imperial sister? Why are you...why are you so panicked? You are the princess of a country, how can you be so reckless?" Li Jiye said seriously.

"Qing Nu pays homage to the Imperial Brother!" Li Qing Nu hurriedly saluted, then grabbed Li Jiye's hand and said, "Qing Nu just heard that the Imperial Brother is going to Chen State in two months... Qing Nu is also going, Brother Emperor, can you bring your slave with you? Brother Emperor..."

"Let go, you are such an old man, you can get married, why are you still so playful..."

"No, if the emperor doesn't agree, Qingnu won't let go. Brother Huang, Qingnu has long wanted to go to Nanchen to watch the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival..."

"Come on, come on, come on, I just agree... Let others look at you like this, let's see who dares to want you in the future..." A smile finally appeared on Li Jiye's face.

Li Qingnu was overjoyed when he saw that the emperor finally agreed. He immediately returned to his elegant and dignified appearance and said, "Thank you, brother!"

Then he added playfully: "If Qingnu doesn't do this, the emperor will definitely not agree!"

"So, do you still blame me?" Li Jiye said with a smile.

"How dare you blame the emperor... Oh, emperor, please take your leave. I have to go back to prepare for the trip to the Kingdom of Chen..."

After speaking, Li Qingnu held up her skirt and trotted out.

"Walk slowly and pay attention to your manners! Don't disgrace my royal family!"
