The generals around also laughed.
"Then Marquis Zhongwu is..."
Yang Ji followed their words and continued.
"Hahaha, Marquis Zhongwu is a title given by the imperial court. He just doesn't want to mention his name. So you people in Langya County don't know it either. This is to avoid nepotism in the army. Haha, Marquis Wu does this.
There is more than just Marquis Zhongwu."
The examiner with the rank of general smiled.
Yang Ji was secretly surprised. This general seemed to know a lot of inside information. At least, he was relatively close to the circle of Marquis Zhongwu.
Thinking that the examiners of the martial arts examination were always appointed from the Imperial Capital, Yang Ji had already vaguely understood something. However, it really surprised him that Marquis Zhongwu came from Langya County.
"If Marquis Zhongwu came from Langya County, it's impossible that people in Langya County wouldn't know about it. That can only mean that Marquis Zhongwu is definitely not a descendant of any aristocratic, wealthy, or noble family. Moreover, it is very likely that he has a very special background.
Too far, too far to the point where he was born in a barren mountain and is unknown."
"Going a step further, this Marquis Zhongwu may be a late bloomer. When he won the imperial examination, he was not very outstanding."
Yang Ji thought to himself, thoughtfully.
If you really have talent, most of it will be highlighted at that time. As the saying goes, the sharpness will appear in the bag. However, there are many examples of late bloomers.
For example, Yang Ji himself is the best example! (To be continued.)
