Chapter 287: A Game Like Child's Play
"No, no, she is not a little girl, but Pang Tong, Pang Shiyuan and Pang Shanmin's nephews." Huang Chengyan shook his head and said with a smile.
"Oh? Shi Yuan and the others are here?" Zhuge Xuan heard Huang Chengyan talking about Pang Tong, and there was a hint of surprise on his face.
In his impression, Pang Tong was smart since he was a child, but he was also a little arrogant. This may be a common problem among wealthy families.
"Yes, this kid Shi Yuan, I heard that if there is any literary competition in Luoyang, it must be in Luoyang, so Pang Degong hopes that I will bring him to see it." Huang Chengyan said with a smile.
"That's okay, as the old saying goes, it's better to travel thousands of miles to read thousands of books. It's not bad to go out and see the world. I just hope that after this literary competition, Shi Yuan can get rid of his arrogant problem." Zhuge
Xuan nodded.
"It should be okay. By the way, where is the Crouching Dragon in your family?" Huang Chengyan looked behind Zhuge Xuan, but did not see the figure of the Crouching Dragon.
"Tell me, Kong Ming, he is already preparing to attend the opening ceremony."
"Oh, that's it. Then I wonder if I will meet Shi Yuan." Huang Chengyan smiled.
While Zhuge Xuan and Huang Chengyan were still talking here, at this time, a burst of shouting suddenly broke out from the crowd in front.
"Your Majesty, ten thousand years! Ten thousand years of the great Han!"
"Your Majesty will live for thousands of years, and the great Han will live for thousands of years!"
Hearing this shout, Zhuge Xuan and Huang Chengyan quickly turned their heads and looked towards the street.
At this time, Liu Xie, wearing the emperor's uniform and emperor's crown, stood on the carriage, waving to the crowds on both sides.
Looking at the cheering crowd, Liu Xie's face was also full of smiles. As for Liu Xie, he was not afraid that assassins would come to assassinate him at this time. He was not worried at all.
Didn't you see Ma Chao clearing the way in front? There were elite imperial guards on both sides. The great swordsman Wang Yue was also guarding him on the left and right. Besides, even without these arrangements, no one could do anything with Liu Xie's own martial arts.
Got him.
Liu Xie waved to the people all the way, and when he arrived at the school grounds, the people's shouts still didn't stop.
Liu Xie arranged his uniform under the stage, and then walked towards the high platform.
When he saw the two square formations standing neatly under the stage, he sincerely lamented that there are so many talented people in this era.
"Everyone, I am very relieved that you have come all the way. You also know what this competition means."
"I don't want to say more unnecessary words, because the officials who receive you have already told you these words many times. If I repeat them at this time, you will find me verbose." Liu
Xie said loudly.
The originally quiet crowd burst into laughter after hearing Liu Xie's words, and Liu Xie didn't care about it.
"I just want to say something today, I am here to watch you in this big competition! I am watching you throughout the whole process, so I hope you can have a wonderful performance!"
With that said, Liu Xie waved to Ji Huai.
After hearing Liu Xie's words, the scholars and knights participating in the competition didn't think there was anything wrong, but the officials were stunned.
Especially for Jia Xu, the ministers responsible for arranging the process were all dumbfounded.
I had never heard of the emperor staying to observe the ceremony before.
Don't think that the emperor staying to watch is no different from the emperor only attending the opening ceremony once.
Just put it this way, in terms of security, one is for a time period and the other is for a long period of time. Can the difficulty be the same?
However, Liu Xie is the kind of person who sticks to his word. Since the emperor has said he wants to stay in front of everyone, he can't object at this time.
Therefore, Jia Xu could only ask people to find Xu Huang and ask him to strengthen security matters.
Soon, Ji Huai brought a soft table and placed it behind Liu Xie. Liu Xie slowly sat down and then nodded to Ji Huai.
Ji Huai signaled, he took a step forward slowly, and then shouted loudly to the crowd participating in the competition: "According to His Majesty's decree, the first civil and military competition of the Han Dynasty has officially begun!"
Following Ji Huai's order, officials in charge of registration immediately came to let the participants in the martial arts competition appear.
The martial arts competition at the beginning was actually not that exciting. After all, there were too many people. Some of the individuals were evenly matched in terms of strength, while others had a huge gap.
For example, Liu Xie noticed that there was a man in the field who was holding two short axes and looked like a black coal ball. His opponent was a ranger holding a spear.
The man holding the hatchet knew from the beginning that his weapon was shorter than the opponent's and he had to close the distance between himself and the opponent. But the opponent's ranger with the gun was not stupid. How could he let the opponent
, easily close the distance with yourself?
Ever since, from the beginning, the competition was extremely fierce, and Liu Xie's blood was boiling when he saw it.
In addition to such fierce competitions, there are also those who pretend to be fake.
For example, Liu Xie also saw two knights wielding swords. The two men completely ignored the boos from the audience. They stood about one meter apart and hit each other with their swords.
He didn't even move a step. What kind of competition is this?
Liu Xie suddenly felt that if he held such a competition in the future, he must set a condition. He must reach the Kaiyang realm before he can register.
These two people are just here for fun.
The ordinary Ji Huai followed Liu Xie's gaze and also spotted the two people. He immediately understood that Liu Xie didn't seem to be busy with those two people, so he took the initiative to ask: "Your Majesty, please go and get those two people."
Can two people rush down?"
"No, let them be like this. I just want to see how the two of them end up."
"Also, please remember that after today's competition is over, you go tell Wen He. In future competitions, the strength of the participants must be evaluated. People like this who fish in troubled waters should not be let in again.
"
"Here." When Ji Huai heard Liu Xie's words, he immediately nodded and responded.
Afterwards, Ji Huai stood for a while and said no more.
The two people Liu Xie was paying attention to who were obviously fighting against counterfeiters, after standing there and competing with each other for a stick of incense, seemed to feel that it would be a bit embarrassing for them to continue fighting like this.
So the two of them abandoned the long swords in their hands at the same time, then used their bastard fists and shouted directly at each other's face.
When Liu Xie saw this scene, he directly covered his eyes with his hands. To be honest, he was already prepared that the first martial arts competition would be ugly, but he really didn't expect that it would turn out like this.
