Chapter 7 The riding and shooting assessment is very lively
After Yuchi Baolin completed the first part of the riding and shooting assessment, he temporarily left the venue to rest. The first part of the assessment and the second part of the assessment were divided into two times. After all, it is still a bit difficult for these children to continue riding and shooting for two sticks of incense. But this way
It also just lengthens the entire assessment time and allows the audience to watch more exciting riding and shooting assessments.
On the high platform, Yu Chigong's face lost the previous pride, because his son's performance in the second half of the first part, that is, the moving target horseback shooting a hundred paces away, was very average.
Li Zhiyun comforted him: "At Paulin's age, it is not easy for her to have such riding and shooting skills. Don't blame her too harshly."
"Yes, I understand." Yuchi said respectfully. That's what he said, but he still made up his mind to continue training Yuchi Baolin. He knew that Yuchi Baolin was not good at studying, and in order to stand out in the future, he must practice martial arts well.
Judging from Yuchi Baolin's performance, she has actually surpassed most children of the same age, but Yuchi Gong is still not satisfied. He used medicinal food to beat Yuchi Baolin's bones when he was still young. He is not very satisfied with today's performance.
.
After Yuchi Baolin, Du Gou came on stage.
"Hey, Mr. Du's boy." Xue Shou said teasingly.
Du Ruhui sighed helplessly, "I'm afraid Gou'er won't be able to ride and shoot."
"So unsure?" Qin Qiong frowned and said, "Du Dalang was very serious when he was learning riding and shooting from me at school."
Du Ruhui smiled bitterly, "It's fate."
He knows his own family affairs, and how much Du Gou's martial arts is. Others don't know, and he, as a father, doesn't know it either. Saying that he is ordinary is just a good-natured consolation.
Li Zhiyun looked at Du Gou who looked slightly thin in the cold wind, and then looked at his ill-fitting armor and stomach, and immediately said to Du Ruhui in dissatisfaction: "Keming, although your family has no martial arts heirs, you can't be so indifferent to riding and shooting. Please note
, Strengthening one’s body is the way to establish one’s body
Originally, without a strong body, how can it support the hardships of physical labor? You have also come out of the battlefield, and you should know how important it is to have a healthy body. Du Gou is talented. If you push him a little in the future, he will be your Du family
A leader is a person who is the lintel of a family."
"Yes, I will take your Majesty's lesson to heart." Du Ruhui sighed: "I don't know the principles of martial arts to strengthen my body. I am just a child who is naturally unwilling to practice martial arts. I don't know how to persuade him, so I can only let it go."
"Haha, Prime Minister Du, who has always been decisive, is like this." Xue Shou couldn't help but tease.
"I'm afraid if someone doesn't protect his son, Prime Minister Du won't dare to provoke him." Cheng Yaojin took it with a smirk on his face and continued to tease him.
Du Ruhui's face turned red and he snorted angrily, not bothering to refute them. He knew that once he opened his mouth, the other party would definitely continue to mock him.
Ignoring them is the right thing to do.
"It is said that Prime Minister Du did not dare to discipline Du Gou in martial arts because he was afraid of Mrs. Du. This is because he deeply loves Mrs. Du, which is really admirable." Yuchi Gong said in an upright manner.
Du Ruhui: "..."
Yuchi Jingde, I remember you, just wait for me!
"Hahahahaha!" Jun Chen burst out laughing.
Only Fang Xuanling did not laugh, because if he smiled, he would definitely be ridiculed by those harmful friends, and he must not laugh.
"Kukukuku..." He really couldn't hold it in. He had received professional training and couldn't hold it in.
Du Ruhui glanced at him sideways and cursed in his heart, "You are so ridiculous, you are not like me."
Everyone among the monarchs and ministers present knew that Fang and Du were notoriously afraid of others.
Laughter broke out on the high platform, which made Du Gou, who was already anxious in the audience, even more frightened. He thought that His Majesty and others were mocking him.
Snap!
When the longbow fell to the ground, he didn't dare to dismount and pick it up, but a soldier picked it up for him and handed it to him.
As the officer lit a stick of incense, the examiner shouted, "Start!"
Wow!
Fifty paces away, the moving target of infantry began to run randomly.
Du Gou gritted his teeth and said, "Drive!"
The horse started to run, and he straightened his back and drew his bow.
Off the field.
Cheng Chumo frowned and said, "What is he doing? His posture is completely wrong. Does he want to be thrown out by the war horse?"
When riding and shooting on horseback, the body must lean forward slightly and assume a posture of leaning on the horse's back, but it cannot completely lie on the horse's back, but rather seems to be lying on the horse's back. This is the best posture to maintain balance on the horse.
A knight with excellent riding skills, after using his legs to clamp the horse's belly, can even use the power of the calf pillar to "stand" on the horse's back, perfectly coordinate with the horse, and control the horse as he pleases.
Li Yixie also said strangely: "It shouldn't be. Du Gou knows the standard posture of riding and shooting. What happened to him today?"
"Maybe he's nervous." Fang Yizhi said. As a good friend, he knew that Du Gou was not good at riding and shooting, in fact, he was still very weak.
In a scene like today, with His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty sitting on the high platform, and Du Gou's father Du Xiangguo, it is inevitable that you will be nervous.
"This is not good." Su Qingjie said.
Sure enough, Du Gou's first arrow missed directly, and was weak and unable to even go beyond fifty steps.
"Didn't you eat?" Cheng Yaojin said strangely.
Du Ruhui's anger +1.
I can't bear it, I don't have the same experience as this kind of fool.
"Maybe it just won't work." Yuchi Gong made a last-ditch attack.
Du Ruhui's anger +2.
No matter how much I tolerate it, I am still a fool.
Li Junxian said: "I think it's better to forget it. Look at that kid, he's not sure."
I can't bear it...I can't bear it!
Du Ruhui said in a deep voice: "The riding and shooting test is determined by His Majesty. Even if he doesn't get a single point, he must still finish the test."
"Well, Keming said it well." Li Zhiyun glanced at the guys eating melons and said to Du Ruhui: "It's not scary if you can't do well in riding and shooting. What's scary is that you don't even have the confidence to persevere."
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
"Your Majesty said so."
The emperor had spoken, and others naturally did not dare to continue mocking Du Ruhui, an honest man, but the snickers still made Du Ruhui sit on pins and needles.
These old guys are almost all retiring now. They are all the heroes of His Majesty's confidants. Naturally, there is nothing to compare them with. Let's compare them to my son. It's like playing with toys, you always have to have fun, right?
Du Gou's cavalry shooting was really bad. After a stick of incense, only a handful of targets were hit, and he ended up in disgrace.
The next one is Li Yixie. He is a distinguished member of the martial arts family. He is naturally good at riding and shooting, and his results are pretty good.
Followed by Fang Yizhi.
Originally, everyone was ready to ridicule Fang Xuanling, but Fang Yizhi's performance was remarkable. Although he was not as good as Captain Chi Baolin and others, his results were still impressive.
"Fang Xuanling, is this your son?" Cheng Yaojin asked in disbelief.
"What do you mean?" Fang Xuanling has a black line on his head. If he is not my son, he could be your son.
How to speak!
"Don't get me wrong, I just think that your son is completely different from you. He is very powerful." Cheng Yaojin said.
Even Du Ruhui was also surprised by Fang Yizhi's performance. He said to himself, "Fang Xuanling, you are actually hiding something, right?"
Li Zhiyun was also a little surprised. He only knew that Fang Yiai, the second eldest son of Fang Xuanling's family, was a guy with a genetic mutation. He didn't expect Fang Yizhi to be the same. But after thinking about it, he understood, because Fang Xuanling's own strength was there.
It is more or less hereditary.
Other candidates followed shortly after, and the best performer was Qin Qiong's son Qin Huaiyu. In the first part of the assessment, whether it was the fifty-step archery target or the one-hundred-step archery target, the number of hits visible to the naked eye was the highest.
Then, it was the turn of Mayi King Li Chengjing to take the exam.
Everyone fell silent instantly. Many people were looking forward to the performance of the eldest son of the emperor. Even Li Zhiyun, the father, also became nervous.
