Chapter Sixty-Six: Broadcasting Gymnastics in the Imperial Examination
"It smells so good? Ning Yun, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Li Lin became more and more strange when he heard Ning Yun's words. After looking at Ning Yun's current appearance, he knew that there was no chance.
"But I made a mistake. You really don't know how to say anything."
"..."
Ning Yun still had his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking, but the tip of his nose would always move slightly.
"Someone, take him to Doctor Seven."
Li Lin knew that his toast had no effect, and he could only drink wine as a fine.
The two men came up and tied up Ning Yun before retreating.
Li Lin sat on a chair and drank tea, thinking deeply.
"Ning Cheng, what is the current combat strength of the Northern Army?"
Ning Cheng had been sitting there listening to the conversation between the two. When he was asked, he quickly replied.
"Your Majesty, the Northern Army is now quite powerful. Ning Sui cannot compare with the elites at the founding of the country, but it is not far behind."
"Really? In my impression, my Daxia's combat power is very average..."
"Your impression is not completely wrong. At least except for the Northern Army, the combat effectiveness of the other three armies is indeed low, and the same goes for the Beijing Army. But since Ning Guogong settled in, the training of the Northern Army has been greatly strengthened, so now the Northern Army has
We have an army that has been practicing all year round, and we are just short of a chance to prove ourselves."
"Ning Guogong..."
Li Lin was indeed a little depressed at this time. Ning Guogong had been in battle for a long time, and his scheming was beyond his comparison.
"Your Majesty, the interrogation results of those who sent scouts to the Northern Army have come out."
"Come in and talk."
After the guards came in, they saluted Li Lin.
"Your Majesty, the Seven Doctors have all asked about it. They only said that they reported to Ning Guogong normally and did not explain anything else. This is the record of this inquiry. Please take a look at it, Your Majesty."
Li Chen took the thing handed over by his personal guard, looked at it twice, then threw it to Ning Cheng, and made sure he took a look at it too.
Ning Cheng read it carefully and then replied sheepishly.
"Your Majesty, I don't see any problem, why don't we try the order in which they send the letters, roughly in a row?"
"Um……"
Li Lin felt a little tired, raised his head sharply, stared at the beams above, and responded casually.
Then he took out the seven pieces of information that he had not taken out just now and put them on the table together.
"Now, that's all. I was afraid that Ning Yun would see something and cause some changes."
Li Lin explained casually.
Ning Yun didn't have any reaction after hearing this. He first said that he was a surrendered general. Even if he didn't show it now, it would be right. Let alone just in front of Ning Yun.
Then he got it right word by word.
After a while of burning the incense, Ning Cheng was still full of doubts and kept turning the pieces of things in his hands back and forth.
Li Lin even squinted for a while.
"Ha...General Ning, stop digging. Nothing will be found. Now we just wait for the results of Ning Yun's interrogation."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and did some stretching exercises. After he felt more comfortable, he continued.
"General Ning, get up and follow my lead."
Ning Cheng was puzzled, but stood up anyway.
Li Lin saw that he was wearing armor, so he stepped forward and dragged him up.
"Come on, come on, take it off, take it off, how can you move with such a heavy thing on?"
Ning Cheng was startled by Li Lin's move and quickly said whether he should take it seriously or not.
Li Lin didn't insist. There were too many places to solve in this armor, and he might not be able to find them all.
Ning Cheng took off his armor and stood side by side with Li Lin at Li Lin's signal, and stepped back slightly to show respect.
Later, under the leadership of Li Lin, the two started "Time is Calling".
Li Lin moved and introduced.
"This is gymnastics, just think of it as physical training. It's about strengthening your body, and it's not that hard. You jump every day to strengthen your body... and keep fit." He said and pulled his neck hard.
"Your Majesty, I think this is just a warm-up..." Ning Cheng, as a battlefield general, does this casually.
"Hey, of course you don't feel anything anymore, but those civil servants in the capital who sit at their desks all day long must not be in good shape like you. This is just for them!"
"I see. If you are such a person, then this is just right."
"Hey, I'm honored. I plan to teach this to scholars all over the world. It can be included as one of the items in the imperial examination in the future, hahahaha."
Ning Cheng thought it was a bit funny when he thought about the scene of hundreds of scholars doing gymnastics during the imperial examination.
After all, Li Lin didn't like power. Naturally, the regent couldn't stand up when he was on guard. Of course, this was also related to the fact that he was a time traveler and didn't have such a strong concept of distinction between noble and humble.
But at this time, he and Ning Cheng were chatting happily.
"Your Majesty, the results of Ning Yun's interrogation are out."
The two stopped. Li Lin picked up the kettle and took two sips. Then he handed the kettle to Ning Cheng and motioned for him to take a sip too.
"come in!"
The guard opened the door and came in, saluting Li Lin.
"Your Majesty, Ning Yun didn't find anything. Doctor Seven said that he had used all the methods but he still didn't say anything."
Li Lin was not surprised. In fact, when the seven generals did not get any useful information, he had already made mental preparations, so he fell asleep and jumped at the same time.
"but……"
"But what?" Li Lin asked in surprise.
Just kidding, when you know you will definitely fail the exam, but your score says you scored 60 points, aren't you excited?
If you're not excited, you're the kind of person who always complains about your high scores and says I'm gone, bah, you don't deserve to be friends with me, Li.
"But the seventh doctor said that he discovered something else. This Ning Yun is sick and will die soon..."
"?" Li Lin and Ning Cheng both had black question mark faces, as if they didn't understand what the guards were saying.
"Ning Yun? You're going to die soon?" Li Lin asked, while Ning Cheng was also staring at the guard.
"I don't dare to talk nonsense. That's what the seventh doctor said. He also said that this is a very rare disease."
"What disease exactly?"
"Uh... that's so strange. General... I didn't remember it. It seems to be related to Linzhi State."
Facing Li Lin's inquiry, the guard scratched his head in embarrassment.
"What's the use of you? Get out."
Li Lin sent the person away angrily.
Ning Cheng fell into deep thought, and then he seemed to remember something and said to Li Lin.
"Your Majesty, the general just remembered something, which may be related to this secret message."
Because Li Lin had just experienced a process of disappointment, hope, and disappointment again, he didn't take Ning Cheng's words seriously this time and agreed casually.
"explain."
"Your Majesty, how much do you know about Linzhi Country?"
