Queen's scheming

Chapter 368 Martial Examination Result
Lord Zhen Guo hopes to expose the hidden guards under Li Tianyou through this martial arts, and Li Tianyou hopes to balance the situation through this martial arts, so that both his dark guards and Ri Tian will fall into the light, and the martial arts will have nothing to do with it. The stumbling block was unexpectedly smooth, but in just five days, the winner was decided.

The martial arts competition is divided into two competitions, one is a pure martial arts competition, Xingmai is the first, the candidate Zhou Heng recommended by Zhen Guogong is the second, Ri Tian is the third, and Xingmai's younger brother Xingde was injured by Zhou Heng Originally, Xingmai still wanted to restrain himself, and let it go when he got second, but Zhou Heng injured Xingde, which made Xingmai hate Zhou Heng, and he didn't want to let him, so he finally won the first place.

The second round was the formation of troops, Xingmai and Xingde tried their best, but they still didn't break into the top ten. Xingmai thought that it would be no problem for him to be the first in martial arts and get an official position, so he decided He didn't pay too much attention to the competition of formation and deployment. When the results came out, Xingmai felt that he was in a worrying situation, because Ritian unexpectedly won the No.1 in formation and deployment for the first time, and Zhengzhouli, which was recommended by Yang Guogong, came in second. , and Li Tianyou's dark guard Jia Zhaoming was the third.

The moment he got the news, Xingmai was dripping with sweat, and Ritian became the only one who ranked in the top three in both martial arts and formation in the two competitions. He was stationed in Yueliang, almost a certainty.

If Ritian went to Yueliang, then they...Xingmai hastily sent someone to send the news back to Jiangnan, not sure if they could catch up, and also didn't know if Ritian did it on purpose, so they always looked at Ritian with After a few inquiries, Ri Tian pretended not to know, and happily prepared to go to Qiankun Palace with the other five people to receive the reward the next day.

Xingmai has a lot of worries, worried that the master will punish him.Little did he know that Duke Zhen had already set his sights on him.Zhen Guogong thought early in the morning that most of the hidden guards were not good at war, if it is considered martial arts, they must be superior to everyone, and when Xing Mai and Zhou Heng fought, they used the dark guard's ultimate move at an emergency, Zhen Guogong decided that Xing Mai would He is the best of Li Tianyou's dark guards, so he is all about getting rid of Xingmai.

Li Tianyou had thought of this early in the morning, so in the pure martial arts competition, his hidden guard only occupied the sixth or seventh place, which did not arouse the suspicion of everyone at all. On the side of the art of war, he only sent Jia Zhaoming, which was even more inconspicuous.

On the second day, everyone went to the Qiankun Palace to accept the rewards and thank them.

Li Tianyou gave the corresponding gold and silver according to everyone's ranking, and then mentioned the matter of guarding Yueliang. Ritian was the No.1 in the two competitions, so he naturally bore the brunt.

"Ritian, you are very talented, and your martial arts and military skills are excellent. I wonder if you are willing to go to Yueliang to garrison? I can make an exception and make you a loyal Marquis, and enjoy the honor of a Marquis!" Li Tianyou smiled calmly, as if he was just waiting Nodding every day, this matter can be settled.

Xingmai only felt that his head was as big as a bucket, and he was afraid that Ritian would agree to this, and he was also afraid that if Ritian would not agree, the emperor would not let it go lightly, but within half a cup of tea, Xingmai's head was sweating like beads.

Ri Tian pondered for a while, as if he didn't expect this matter to fall on his head, he chuckled like a big boy and said: "If you go back to the emperor, it is really for the honor of the old father at home to enter the palace. It is really unfilial to stay in Yueliang and leave my father alone in Dali. If the emperor allows it, it is better to wait for me to write a letter to my father in Jiangnan. If my father thinks it is feasible, I will definitely agree. Please forgive my filial piety! "

Xingmai was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Ritian would say such a thing at a critical moment, the master showed kindness to Ritian, but in their hearts they all felt that the master didn't really believe in the young master, otherwise they would They would not let them report the young master's whereabouts to Jiangnan every three days, but now Ritian would actually risk angering the emperor and propose to discuss with the master...

Li Tianyou was in a bit of a dilemma, no matter how respectful and virtuous he was as a corporal, these people did not dare to be big, they had been in the top position for a long time, so naturally there was a kind of majesty, Xingmai even felt that Li Tianyou was very similar to the late emperor, but it was a pity...they only can do this...

Sure enough, Li Tianyou's expression was a little unhappy, and when he said it, he was no longer so gentle, he just said lightly: "If you refuse to go every day, then I'm afraid I will send two or three people to Yueliang, that's all. I won’t ask any questions today, everyone is concerned by family members, you go back to the mansion to discuss and discuss, if you are willing to go to Yueliang to garrison, I will naturally not treat you badly.”

Seeing this, Xiao Anzi took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, the empress has prepared screens for the top three in the martial arts competition. Do you think it's okay for the champions to choose first?"

Li Tianyou naturally went down the slope, and he had already made a conclusion in his heart about who would go to Yueliang, but it was just to give everyone an appearance. Seeing that everyone had already understood what he meant, he naturally put it aside.

Except for Xingmai who was thinking about things, Zhou Heng, who was recommended by Duke Zhen, and Zheng Zhouli, who was recommended by Duke Yang, could all see it clearly. When the emperor mentioned the empress, his expression immediately improved... It seems that they can go for a while Walk the way of the queen...

Li Tianyou waved his hand, and a group of palace people moved up the screens of the harem. All kinds of screens, kang screens, enclosure screens, and hanging screens were scattered all over Qiankun Palace. Xiao Anzi and Tang Zihan took Watching together with a few people, Tang Zihan surrounded Ritian and commented on the embroidery together with him, until he stopped in front of a small and delicate screen, and Ritian stopped. It was a picture of a snow scene. , and a little inappropriate, because in the distant view of that picture, there is a red pavilion, and there is a shadowy figure in the pavilion. If you don’t look carefully, you won’t notice it. You just think it’s a picture of a snow scene.

Tang Zihan laughed at himself, it was nothing wrong with him, he was already 30 years old, but he actually did something like a teenage boy, did he want to prove something, or did he want to deceive himself?
Tang Zihan shook his head, and said in a low voice: "Princess Yuexuan heard about the martial arts, and also wants to contribute to the country." Tang Zihan didn't explain clearly, in fact, he went to Princess Yuexuan with the cheek I begged, and said it in a high-sounding way, just to deceive An Qingyao's embroidery, he just wanted to see if the man in front of him was as indifferent as An Qingyao's affection for him.

Ritian was full of mixed feelings, and the bottom of his heart that he refused to touch for a long time suddenly became soft and sour, and he was about to shed tears. Ritian raised his head, suppressed the water in his eyes, and said with a smile: "I don't know if I can choose this screen back. Will there be any obstacles from the princess?"

Tang Zihan was taken aback. If Ritian revealed his identity, Princess Yuexuan would happily send over the screen, but Ritian said so...

Tang Zihan didn't expect that Ritian would still refuse to reveal his identity at this time, so he couldn't help saying in a low voice: "It's not easy for Princess Yuexuan to be alone in the palace. If I know that my screen has been chosen by Master Ritian, I'm afraid I will be very happy." .”

Ritian naturally understood Tang Zihan's meaning, but still opened his mouth and said: "Ritian is the one who licks blood on the tip of the knife, this life does not belong to me, and there is an old father who needs to support him, if Princess Yuexuan thinks his The screen was chosen by someone to guard Yueliang, but in the end Ritian didn't get the job, the princess would be disappointed, if so, it would be better to have no expectations!"

Tang Zihan was silent for a moment, saying that his life might be involved, and now it is in danger, if An Qingyao and Shen Qingyi don't want to worry about her, it's better to let them think that he is dead...

If it is said that Tang Zihan used to have some intention of competing with Ritian, but now he only has admiration. As a modern person, he asked himself that he could not reach the level of Ritian, so it is no wonder that An Qingyao would do it for him. After so many years of hard work, An Qingyao didn't see the wrong person. Tang Zihan thought, he might fall into it again. Can he look at An Qingyao and Ritian? Lovers can't get married. It's really amazing Really, the emperor has a queen, Ritian has An Qingyao, and he is the only one who is alone. It seems that there is something, it is better to be a pioneer by himself, anyway, no one cares about his life or death!

Everyone picked the screen they liked, Ritian took An Qingyao's snow scene picture, Xingmai chose the profound desert Guyanzhi, Zhou Heng naturally chose Tang Aoxue's Hanmei Aoxue, Zheng Zhouli chose Mrs. Jinghui's landscape painting, and Jia Zhaoming, under the hint of Xiao Anzi, chose Shen Qingyi's screen with poems and books on the difficult road to Shu.

When the news reached the harem, everyone was overjoyed, because the candidate to guard Yueliang had not yet been decided, and Ritian seemed to be the most likely person to go, but Ritian told the emperor that he would discuss with his old father. It is filial piety, the emperor will not force it, and the concubines in the harem found out that Princess Yuexuan was actually involved in this matter. There were inevitably some complaints in the words, the imperial concubine Duanjing is the most fair, anyway, her screen was not selected, Said calmly, since Princess Linglong can stand for the election, Princess Yuexuan can naturally too, as long as the lottery is changed.

When this word reached the Magnificent Pavilion, Linglong was a little overjoyed, and was immediately discouraged. This meant that even if Xingmai of her screen was chosen to guard Yueliang, Li Tianyou would not come to her Magnificent Pavilion.Originally, Linglong thought that if Ritian refused to go, she would choose at least one person in martial arts and military art, and Xingmai, who is the number one in martial arts, would be the No. 1 choice, but now... even Xingmai was selected , and nothing happened to her!

An Qingyao felt a little strange on the other side. She thought her screen was too plain and no one would choose it, but she was forced by Tang Zihan to accept the scene, but now she actually Being selected by the popular candidates, An Qingyao was a little unhappy. She liked the screen very much. It was embroidered with the scene of her meeting Li Muhao in the snow...

　Everyone knows who Ri Tian is, have you guessed it before?
