Before Lao Li could finish his words, Zhao Chen already knew what he meant.
He waved his hand and interrupted: "Chang'an Military Academy recruits elite talents, these people will be the guards of all the towns and borders of our Tang Dynasty in the future."
"They will be the guardians of my Tang Dynasty's future."
"These people are better than those who are too little."
"I also admit that candidates who can persist in the mountains and forests for seven days have tenacity that ordinary people do not have."
"But military talents need not only tough character, but also a little talent."
Chang'an Military Academy was not intended to train ordinary generals.
Cultivating 300 people is already the limit.
How many people can truly become talented?
Old Li didn't know how to refute Zhao Chen for a moment.
He also understood that the senior generals of the Tang Dynasty should be upholding the attitude of not being insignificant than being insignificant.
But when he saw those candidates who had to hold on for seven days, he still couldn't bear it.
An emperor has sympathy in his heart, but it is difficult to make a judgment anymore.
"Old Li, the same thing, since you asked me to be the dean of Chang'an Military Academy, then you should sit quietly aside."
"Of course, if you think I did something wrong, you can ask Gao Ming..."
Old Li was retorted by Zhao Chen's words.
Although Old Li was very uncomfortable, he still said nothing.
He returned to Chang'an from outside the city overnight.
He also said that he would no longer care about the affairs of Chang'an Military Academy.
...
Li Zhi originally wanted to go back to Chang'an with the emperor.
Li Zhi's original idea was to follow the emperor back to Chang'an and then find a place to hide.
As long as he escapes the assessment two days later, he will not be able to enter Chang'an Military Academy.
In this way, you won’t have to follow Zhao Chen every day and be ravaged by him in the future.
But the emperor kicked him off the carriage.
When he returned to his residence, Li Zhi saw the young man who came out with him.
"By the way, I don't know your name yet!" Li Zhi asked the young man.
"Your Highness King Jin, Pei Xingjian in Xiahedong." The young man said to Li Zhi.
"Hedong Pei Family."
"Hedong Pei family is also a big family. Why are you so uneasy? You are here to participate in the assessment of Chang'an Military Academy?" Li Zhi was a little surprised.
Although the aristocratic family was expelled from Chang'an, their power was greatly weakened.
But in the territory of the aristocratic family, they are still very energetic.
For example, although the Pei family in Hedong is not as good as the previous five surnames and Qiwang, it is also a leader in Hedong.
There is no need for the descendants of the Pei family in Hedong to participate in the assessment of Chang'an Military Academy.
"After the teacher Su Dingfang, the teacher learned that Chang'an Military Academy was recruiting students, and he wrote down that he had to go to Chang'an Military Academy to study in any case." Pei Xingjian and Li Zhi explained.
"Anyway, you must enter Chang'an Military Academy?" Li Zhi looked at Pei Xingjian in confusion.
He didn't quite understand why there were people in this world who couldn't think about it.
He tried his best to get into Zhao Chen's hands.
After entering Chang'an Military Academy, wouldn't you stand in front of Zhao Chen and wait for the removal?
Li Zhi felt that Pei Xingjian must not know how hateful Zhao Chen was.
So he said, "Brother Pei, listen to me. Although Zhao Chen is my emperor brother, I tell you that he is a complete bastard."
"A year ago, my mother gave me to him for care."
"You know what happened. He not only forced me to carry water every day, but also asked me to chop firewood."
"I am the dignified King of Jin. I am not as good as a servant in his family."
"What's even more annoying is that he stole the girl I like."
When Li Zhi thought of Wu Zi, he was so angry that he was furious.
Until now, he felt that Wu Yu didn't like him, so it must be Zhao Chen's instigation.
Otherwise, with his Li Zhi's identity, status, and appearance, how could Wu Qi not like him?
Pei Xingjian felt that Li Zhi must have had some serious illness in his brain.
But Li Zhi obviously regarded himself as a friend, and he didn't have the nerve to talk about Li Zhi's problem.
He smiled and said, "The teacher's letter said that although His Highness, the King of Han, sometimes acted extremely, was in the righteousness."
"The Empress asked His Highness the King of Han to take care of you. His Highness the King of Han asked you to do things, but I also hope you can grow."
"In other words, if His Highness the King of Han doesn't care about you and let you do what you want, I'm afraid that the life of His Highness the King of Jin will be explained here for this assessment."
"As for the girl that His Highness the King of Han robbed the Prince of Jin likes, Pei didn't know about this, so he couldn't say anything."
"But there are no rumors about this outside world."
Pei Xingjian told the truth, but obviously Li Zhi couldn't listen to the truth.
Listening to his new friend also saying good things about Zhao Chen, he stood up and left angrily.
Pei Xingjian was speechless, but he didn't take this matter to heart.
Su Dingfang said in the letter that Zhao Chen is a genius that has never been seen in a thousand years. If Pei Xingjian could worship his disciple, his future prospects would be limitless.
Pei Xingjian already had a mentor and didn't want to come.
But Su Dingfang repeatedly ordered him in his heart not to miss this opportunity.
That's why Pei Xingjian came here.
The first assessment really allowed Pei Xingjian to see Zhao Chen's extraordinaryness.
With 300,000 people, 99% of the first round of assessment was directly eliminated.
It is absolutely difficult for young people under the age of 25 to persist in the mountains and forests for seven days.
But those who can persevere must have tenacity that ordinary people cannot bear.
If you become a member of Chang'an Military Academy in the future, you will definitely make progress more easily.
Pei Xingjian looked at the signboard of Chang'an Military Academy in front of him, and a hint of expectation rose in his heart at this moment.
...
Two days passed quickly.
In today's assessment, except for more than 700 candidates who participated in the assessment, only a few yamen runners and soldiers were responsible for maintaining order.
The onlookers had long dispersed.
The failed candidates also returned to their hometowns.
The emperor did not come here today, and I think he dared not participate in Zhao Chen's assessment again.
I was afraid that Zhao Chen would give him another fatal assessment.
It made him feel heartbroken.
The best way is to be purified if you don’t see it.
Li Zhi stood in the front row of the team, his small figure made him look a little funny.
There is a piece of rice paper and a brush in front of each candidate.
This is their assessment tool today.
"What are you going to be assessed?"
"I haven't studied, so I can't write."
"When I first signed up, wasn't it okay to have never studied?"
"If I were to write, wouldn't it be intentional to make things difficult for me?"
When a candidate saw the paper and pen in front of him, he couldn't help but feel thrilled.
I still feel that I am deliberately making things difficult for them.
Zhao Chen sat on the chair and looked at the seven hundred people in front of him.
What surprised him was that among the seven hundred people, there were actually several women mixed in.
During the previous seven-day assessment, a woman insisted on it.
"Li Ke, let them start." Zhao Chen just glanced at him and waved to Li Ke beside him.
"Yes, the emperor!" Li Ke nodded and took a step forward.
"The second round of assessment of Chang'an Military Academy."
"You all come from all over the Tang Dynasty. On the way, you must have crossed mountains and ridges, crossed rivers and bridges."
"This second round of assessment is to ask you to use paper and pen to draw the topographic map of your journey."
