The son-in-law is a thief

Chapter 103

Zeng Shi cut off the sea route, and there were not many guests who came to the banquet. The total number of people did not exceed 30, and most of them were foreigners. Seven out of ten people were missing after this round of literary examination , leaving only nine sons, or even eight sons and one princess.

Before the guests came to Wu'an Port, the Ministry of Rituals had already revealed that there would be a literary test competition today, and only roughly reminded that there would be a martial arts test. No one knew exactly how the martial arts test would be.All eyes turned to Huang Yuan, waiting for him to make an arrangement for everyone.

Huang Yuan looked at the princes and grandsons who were facing each other with expressions of expectation or apprehension, but no one noticed that beads of sweat dripped from the face of this Huang Dashangshu, he called his servant to help him. He served a cup of herbal tea, and drank it all at once, but the tea still did not calm his inner tension.

"Zhimiao, what's the situation with this horse?" Huang Yuan asked Sun Zhimiao who was in charge of the stable.

Sun Zhimiao, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, is also Huang Yuan's confidant, but this time he has no way to turn to Huang Yuan.

Sun Zhimiao replied cautiously: "I don't even know, this horse can't stand up after eating the food, and I don't know who drugged it."

"Is that how you guard the stables?!" Huang Yuan yelled in a low voice: "Young servant, you don't even look down on horses, how can you become a pillar of the Great Zhou?!"

"I know I'm wrong!" Sun Zhimiao hurriedly explained: "Habayashi guards are arranged in front of and behind the stable, and the horse food is placed alone behind the stable. At least three people watched at the same time, and no one came during the period. Pass."

"Then what do you mean?" Huang Yuan questioned: "I transported the horse fodder from the palace, do you mean to blame the old man for not being optimistic about the horse fodder?"

"I don't dare to be an official." Sun Zhimiao said, according to the current situation, the problem should be caused by horse feed, but Sun Zhimiao can only take the responsibility on himself, and he said: "This is a dereliction of duty by an official! "

"Master Huang, what are you doing? The guests are still waiting for you to arrange?"

Qin Li'an, who was sitting on the side, spoke, he naturally knew that Huang Yuan had nothing to do now, and now that horse warfare was impossible, everything could be changed to land warfare as he wished.

Huang Yuan knew that Qin Li'an was eyeing him, so naturally he couldn't waste time, and if he wanted to be held accountable, he would have to wait until Zhaoyang had chosen his husband today, so Huang Yuan saluted Qin Wuyong, turned around and said to the guests: "All guests He is an elegant person, and the poems he wrote are all good sentences, I have written the documents in the book, and it will also be available for future generations to appreciate."

After flattering, Huang Yuan said again: "Since you have finished expressing your inner feelings and sights to the bright moon, please move forward and sit down. Next, Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess will speak freely with you."

As soon as Huang Yuan finished speaking, another servant came in from both sides, they were holding seats, boards, tables and other things, that is to say, in a short while, more than [-] seats had been arranged in front of Qin Wuyong, front and back of the seats There are three rows in total, and the servants came to the guests again. They introduced the guests into the seats one by one, and the seats changed drastically. Guests who were not valued like Gu Ruyang and Li Chang were arranged in the first place. In the first row, apart from these two, Li Tuo, Dong Sulang, Li Sui, and several talented writers also sat in the first row. In fact, the visitors already knew in their hearts that those who sat in the first row were those who had passed the Wen test, and those who came after were those who were eliminated, but all the visitors were guests, and there was no reason to drive them away.

Qin Wuyong looked at the talented people and nodded frequently, and finally he also turned his attention to Huang Yuan. He had already confessed to Huang Yuan before that swords have no eyes. We can't let them raise their knives at each other, so let Huang Yuan arrange a play, we must give these talents a chance to perform, but whether they use each other's means in the performance is not something he can control .

Being looked at by Qin Wuyong, Huang Yuan was also a little embarrassed. If he acted according to his role, it should be that the spies of Qi State came to commit the crime, kidnapping the maiko of Da Zhou, and followed Habayashi Wei to release the horses in the stable , talents from all over the world gallop to chase the soldiers, and then behind a small hill in Wu'an Port, the talents will fight with the pursuers, and finally see who can save the maiko unscathed, the above is the Ming fight If it is a secret fight, then Li Tuo should be on the horse at this time, using his advantage in horse fighting to knock the others off the horse, or cut off their sharp blades, and finally save the maiko. Huang Yuan knew that this was not only what he wanted , In fact, it was also what Qin Wuyong thought.But now there is a problem with the horse, which means that when the scene comes out, the people who were galloping away will become galloping away.

Huang Yuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and nod to Qin Wuyong, indicating that he had received the order, and then quietly gestured to his confidant.

Follow those two groups of people to move separately, one wave is the servants who serve the guests, they pour water and wine for their respective waiters, the other wave starts to 'hijack' the maiko, and finally only waits for Huang Yuan to clap their hands. The performance can be officially started.

Seeing that everyone in the first row was also suspiciously waiting for their second trial, Huang Yuan looked at the confidant who had been placed there. The confidant had already finished preparations and was about to give Huang Yuan a confirmation. At that moment, Zhaoyang stood up from the table.

"Master Huang." Zhaoyang said with a smile on his face while walking towards Huang Yuan.

"His Royal Highness." Huang Yuan bowed to Zhao Yang, but did not have time to clap his hands.

"What are your orders?" Huang Yuan asked, he knew that Zhaoyang was smart, but he didn't know what happened so suddenly.

Zhaoyang did not answer directly, but instead walked to an open place beside the banquet, Zhaoyang looked at the moon like a hook in the sky, smiled and said to everyone: "Zhaoyang knows that today's guests are here for only one purpose."

Zhaoyang didn't say it clearly, but this purpose is known to the world.

"But Zhaoyang wants to find the person who will grow old with him, besides outstanding literary talent, he also needs..."

Before everyone heard Zhaoyang's last words, they heard the sound of horseshoes behind them, Huang Yuan was even more surprised, there should be no good horses here, suddenly a handsome horse rushed out of a tree behind the table, and immediately A masked man in black was sitting, and he had rushed towards Zhaoyang at an extremely fast speed.

Normally, Yu Linwei would have already rushed out of the escort, but today was different, Huang Yuan had already greeted him, and all the changes at this moment were his arrangements, so under the watchful eyes of everyone, the man on the horse took Zhaoyang away.

At this time, not only Huang Yuan was startled, but even Qin Wuyong was also shocked, thinking that it was a kidnapping dancer, how could it become a kidnapping princess again.

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, even Qin Li'an secretly felt that Huang Yuan's tricks this time, even though those horses were injured by Chu Han, they managed to think of using Zhaoyang as a hostage to test everyone, it is worthy of the court. Veteran.

It wasn't just the royal family and courtiers who were surprised, the guests also didn't expect Zhaoyang to go to battle in person, and they panicked all at once. If you do what you want, everything will fall into place, you understand.

Since he acted according to his own will, Gu Ruyang took his own knife from Zeng Shi's hand without saying a word, and ran towards the galloping horse. Seeing that Gu Ruyang had moved, the others followed closely behind. This is destined to be a battle of physical strength.

Qin Wuyong looked blankly at what happened before him, and finally set his sights on Huang Yuan.

"This is the martial arts test you arranged?"

-----

Since Gu Ruyang took the lead, he is still at the forefront for the time being, and many people behind him have been unable to bear it anymore and left the center of the venue. Two or three people have really fought. Naturally, Gu Ruyang can't control so much, if According to her intention, she would save Zhaoyang first, and she would not care what the others did.

After running for a while, there were only four or five people left behind Zhaoyang. Naturally, the four running ahead were Gu Ruyang, Li Tuo, Dong Sulang and Li Sui, and Li Chang reluctantly followed.These five people are also chasing after each other, I am afraid that everyone is trying to wait until Zhaoyang's horse stops before fighting, because everyone knows in their hearts from the beginning to the end that it doesn't matter who is kidnapped, the important thing is to stand in the end the one.

But the horse didn't intend to stop, he ran towards the beach vigorously, but the crowd didn't intend to stop, so the horse continued to accelerate, and the people chased after him closely, and finally the horse carrying Zhaoyang He jumped into the sea.

I saw the horse soaring into the air, Zhaoyang was thrown into the sea by the man in black, and the man in black stabbed him at the other end, Gu Ruyang could not care less about chasing people, and headed in the direction of Zhaoyang He also plunged into the water, leaving the four people on the shore looking at each other in dismay. It is estimated that no one thought that this play was so realistic that Zhaoyang really went into the sea.

Li Tuo frowned, and he had no intention of fighting with others. Zhaoyang entered the sea and his life was unknown, so he also plunged into the sea. Dong Sulang and Li Sui followed closely, leaving only Li Chang standing on the shore watching Man no longer moves forward.

Gu Ruyang knew very well that Zhaoyang was not watery, so after the two met, they rescued Zhaoyang twice in the sea. This time Zhaoyang took the initiative to go into the sea, which can be described as extremely daring!Fortunately, Gu Ruyang's water quality is extraordinary, she estimated the height and direction of Zhaoyang's fall, and roughly inferred the position and depth of Zhaoyang's fall into the sea, so she swam fiercely in that direction.

Although Li Tuo followed behind, he suffered a great loss in his armor today. He wanted to save Zhaoyang first, but he kept sinking, and now he has no time to care about others. Li Tuo just hurriedly took off in the water Clothes, let’s look at Dongsulang. Although this warrior grew up by the sea, he is the best in martial arts but not the best in water. He was beaten back and forth by the waves. This water quality can only guarantee that he will not drown. It's better, he is still swimming in the direction of Zhaoyang, and he can't push out Zhaoyang's position like Gu Ruyang.

Gu Ruyang swam towards her destination. It was night, and the sea was extremely dark. Fortunately, her guess was correct, and she caught Zhaoyang in the waves. There is also a small gourd in his arms, which seems to have been taken from his horse when he jumped into the sea.

"Ruyang, I knew that as long as it was in the sea, you would definitely win without any effort."
