Chapter 137 Fighting
A silence.

After pondering for a moment, Emperor Yong nodded: "Okay."

Xie Yanzhou stepped onto the ring, quietly waiting for Li Mingji to come up.

"Li Langjun, please."

In the competition of hand-to-hand combat, the railing is used as the boundary, and the winner will be determined when the railing is encountered.This is the most traditional test method.

This is Xie Yanzhou's choice.

Li Mingji didn't say a word, he glanced at Xie Yanzhou indifferently, and walked onto the ring.

Behind him, a row of imperial guards looked at each other.

When Li Mingji first arrived at the Dianqian Division, they also underestimated this frail scholar who was thin and weak.

Later, they were all dumbfounded, no one dared to show even the slightest contempt for Li Mingji.

Now is the peaceful era, there are very few homicides. The usual job of these forbidden soldiers is to guard the capital and protect the safety of Emperor Yong. They have hardly seen blood.

But Li Mingji didn't seem like people who lived in this era. Taking human life was as simple as crushing an ant.

How could these two form a bridge?

Seeing the little princess in the stands, the guards suddenly understood something.

Shu Yao was very angry.

Xie Yanzhou was born into a family of military generals, he was taught by an expert since he was a child, and Li Mingji has only been in the front office for a long time, isn't this clearly bullying him?

Shu Yao did not forget that when Xie Yanzhou gave Li Mingji a slap on Ning'an Temple Mountain, his wounds were opened.

Seeing Li Mingji's calm demeanor, he didn't seem to have any intention of shrinking back, obviously he had a well-thought-out plan.

He can learn everything quickly and well, Shu Yao was a little relieved, and whispered a few words to Chunrui, if there is any problem in the ring, immediately separate the two and protect Li Mingji.

The corners of the guards' mouths twitched slightly when they received the order from the little princess.I'm afraid that in this world, only the little princess still feels that Master Li is weak and needs protection.

Is this Xi Shi in the eye of the beholder?
The people on the ring have already moved.

Xie Yanzhou took the lead in punching, and the moves hit the vitals directly, the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, fast and ruthless.Li Mingji retreated step by step, showing a defensive posture, and never took the initiative to attack.

He frowned slightly, a look of surprise crossed his eyes.

Such a reckless way of fighting carried the bloody aura brought out from the battlefield, unlike the style that a pampered noble like Xie Yanzhou can have.

After finishing a set of punches, Li Mingji didn't even hit the corner of Li Mingji's clothes, and a drop of sweat rolled down Xie Yanzhou's forehead.

It looked like Li Mingji was retreating under his attack, only Xie Yanzhou knew that Li Mingji was like an impenetrable wall, or a gust of erratic wind, very cunning.

On the contrary, he exerted too much force, and after only a few rounds, he felt powerless.

That time when he slapped Li Mingji, Li Mingji's face was pale, as if he had hurt him badly, that appearance was really an act, right?
Xie Yanzhou licked his lips, touched his upper and lower teeth, exerted some force, and threw out another punch.

He moved a little closer, lowered his voice and said, "Don't try to put on airs in front of Yaoyao... Li Mingji, I know what kind of person you are, and I will take off your skin sooner or later!"

In front of Emperor Yong, he called himself a "grassman", with the attitude of participating in the martial arts without distraction.However, when he arrived at Li Mingji's place, he resumed his self-proclaimed "priest son" and looked down at him.

It was he who took advantage of the chaos to snatch Yaoyao away, causing them to think that Yaoyao was dead.Unexpectedly, Yaoyao was just taken away by him and imprisoned for two full years.Seeing that the general situation was over, Li Mingji set fire to the mansion and died together with Yaoyao.

madman!

His words made Li Mingji's eyes twitch, and a deep meaning flashed across his eyes.Suddenly, he nimbly dodged Xie Yanzhou's attack and punched him in the eyes.

"Really. Please Xie Shizi keep your eyes open to see if you have this ability."

"what!"

The young man's voice was as warm as the wind, completely different from the strength of his attack.Xie Yanzhou suffered from pain, covered the injured area, and took a few steps back.But he didn't admit defeat, he quickly adjusted himself, fought with Li Mingji, and slapped Li Mingji in the face.

"Why does he keep hitting people in the face!"

Shu Yao frowned, and secretly scolded Xie Yanzhou for being a villain. In the past, the Xie family was the largest family, and the family style was good. I don't know how to teach such a son.

The fighting in the arena is coming to an end.

Li Mingji grabbed Xie Yanzhou's wrist, Xie Yanzhou clasped Li Mingji's shoulder, and the two hit the railing at the same time.

It's a tie.

"stop!"

As Emperor Yong finished speaking, Li Mingji let go of his hand, Xie Yanzhou glanced at him unwillingly, and slowly put his hand down.

Those eyes full of hostility locked tightly on Li Mingji.

Li Mingji put down his rolled up sleeves slowly and returned to his seat.

Although it was a draw, when the two stepped off the stage, one was calm and unhurried, with no wrinkles in his clothes, the other had black eyes, couldn't stand firmly, and his hairpin was messed up. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell who would win and who would lose.

The palace servants read tremblingly: "The next one..."

Shu Yao couldn't wait for a moment, and when Li Mingji walked out of the ring, she ran down with her skirt in her hand, stood on tiptoe and carefully examined his face, showing her preference to the fullest.

"Where did Xie Yanzhou hit you? Go to the Imperial Hospital with the princess."

"Your Majesty acted with discretion. This subordinate only suffered some minor injuries, so it's not a hindrance." Li Mingji smiled. "This subordinate still needs to apologize to His Majesty for hurting His Majesty."

Xie Yanzhou's eyelids were already swollen, and he couldn't open them. They were bruised and purple, and he looked very embarrassed.There are also many wounds on the body, which are hidden under the strong clothes, and the pain is unbearable.

He gave Li Mingji a cold look, and when his eyes fell on Shu Yao, he eased up a little, "... Princess."

Shu Yao snorted heavily, ignored Xie Yanzhou, continued to straighten Li Mingji's collar, and said pointingly, "You are not an examiner of martial arts, but you are just on duty here. From the princess' point of view, some people are just avenging private revenge." .”

This Xie Yanzhou is really strange.

Fortunately, Li Mingji has grown a lot. If it was more than half a year ago, wouldn't he have to go up and stand and let Xie Yanzhou beat him?
Emperor Yong on the stage seemed to be aware of it, glanced in the direction of Shu Yao and the others, and raised his eyebrows almost invisibly.

He didn't realize that Yaoyao had already favored Li Mingji to this extent?
Xie Yanzhou's eyes were a little more bitter, he didn't say a word, and silently watched Shu Yao pull Li Mingji away.

It was he who was sorry for her.

But there is still room for repentance for the mistakes he made, and he is willing to use the rest of his life to make up for Shu Yao.It is unforgivable crime for Li Mingji to capture her, imprison her, and even kill her!
He must let Shu Yao see Li Mingji's true face!

……

Three days later, the results of the palace examination were announced.

This palace examination is unprecedented. It not only confers officials to candidates, but also examines many civilian officials who did not participate in the imperial examination.So early in the morning, the Suzaku gate was full of people.

Accompanied by several officials and guards, they walked into the crowd and pasted the imperial list on the door.

No.1 palace test, Zhou Rong!
