Chapter 48: Shangguan Xueer Love at First Sight

The invigilator held a big loudspeaker in his hand, stood in front of the stage and loudly announced the discipline and rules of the examination room:

The first is the archery competition. If you hit one arrow, you will get ten points. If you hit three arrows, you will get thirty points.

Second, in horse racing, the top twenty results are accumulated and the first place gets twenty points, the second place gets nineteen points, and the twentieth place gets one point.

Third, for martial arts competitions, you are not allowed to bring your own swords, guns, swords, halberds, etc., and they will be confiscated. Each person will be given a wooden stick with a brush tied to it, and the person wearing dark clothes will be dipped in white paint, and vice versa.

Fourth, combine the three results and take the top ten

Although there were hundreds of prospective grooms who took the exam, it took less than half a day to complete the inspection. The young eunuch was just ahead of Sun Shan. He got ninth place. It was not because of his poor archery skills, nor because he was not good at running fast, but because he was not good at martial arts.

I have unspeakable difficulties and dare not show my face too much

Then, the ten grooms-to-be went to the big cafeteria for a free lunch. The food was four dishes and one soup. The staple food was steamed buns, flower rolls and rice. The condition was that they were not allowed to drink alcohol. Being drunk was afraid of causing trouble, so as not to affect the afternoon game. The four dishes were a bowl of stuffed skin.

, a plate of braised pork, a pot of radish vermicelli and mushrooms, and a plate of hand-picked mutton soup. There are several kinds, you can choose whatever you want.

The little eunuch Tumen munched and ate huge chunks of food. He actually ate all his portion and left a little behind, so he drank two more bowls of soup. A well-known eunuch in charge of the palace had managed to survive until now.

It looked like God had played another joke on him. However, he had been working too hard these past few days. He couldn't catch up on any meal. He was really starving. He was a eunuch in the palace and the prince's life was fatal.

The palace became a beggar and beat the dog, then walked away while beating it.

Not to mention that the little eunuch is not good at eating, let’s go back and take a look at Shuanglong Dazhai. Shuanglong Village is said to be named after the Double Dragon Stone. It is strange that the stone does not come from the mountains and rivers. Almost all the livestock here are slaughtered every year.

If you want to get a stone, the stone from the cow is called bezoar, the stone from the horse's belly is called mabao, and the stone from the donkey is also called donkey treasure? What's even stranger is that when the stones of all animals are taken out from their stomachs, they have

With the pattern of two dragons, Shuanglong Stone became famous far and wide, and the town was renamed Shuanglong Town.

There is a mountain above Shuanglong Town called Monster Mountain. There is a depression in the middle of the mountain. It is in an excellent position and the ground is wide. It is said that the Han Dynasty general Huo Qubing stationed troops here when he conquered the Xiongnu in the west. When the army returned in triumph, General Huo was worried

The Xiongnu soldiers came again to harass, leaving 500 troops stationed outside to monitor the Xiongnu's movements. Inside, they could protect the safety of the residents in this area, and if necessary, they could rush to the court for help in time. As time went by, the Xiongnu turned from the west to the north.

In the vast desert, this battleground for military strategists has become a stagnant pool. Due to the changeable climate in Shuanglong Town, it is not suitable for the growth of crops. The main source of livelihood for the locals is gold panning in the river, mining in the mountains, and hunting in the forest. Huo Qubing left behind

The army has long been changed beyond recognition. It was digested on the spot. The army was converted into civilians. They spoke the local language and wore local clothes. The only thing that remained was the surname.

Many years ago, when Xue Dingshan of the Tang Dynasty was marching to the west, he followed the ancient road and came to this place. He also saw that the mountains here are dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack. Before leaving, he also appointed an official...

To put it briefly, the person who is in charge of Shuanglong Mountain is not called the mayor, but the village leader. He is a Han named Shangguan Bao. He does not receive salary from the court, nor does he ask for money or food from the state government department, and he regularly asks the state government for money and food.

The condition for the government departments to hand over certain taxes is that the state government does not care about their daily affairs or their personnel and dismissal, and everything is decided independently by them.

Shangguan Bao is entrenched in the small town. Yelang is arrogant and lives in a corner, living like a local emperor. Everything is going well for the old village leader. There is only one thing that is unsatisfactory, that is, none of his wives are living up to expectations and none of them has given birth to a child for him.

With a baby with a baby and a uniform dress and hairpin, what is wrong with his family? He often laments to himself and complains about the world as he sees himself getting older day by day. Even if his wives are reborn, it will no longer help.

, Shangguan Bao immediately made a decision and decided to work hard on his daughter, that is, to rob the groom! The groom who robbed him had agreed in advance that if he gave birth to a son named Shangguan, and if he gave birth to a daughter, he would take the father's surname. Then he would choose a capable son-in-law and give up the title.

If you give it to him, can your son-in-law take away the country? In the end, it is not his Shangguan family’s world!

The so-called robbing is not really robbing. The main thing is to choose. After you have chosen, you can robbing the eldest daughter. The second daughter has already snatched a desirable husband. The third daughter has just grown up and it is time for "robbing". Youdao is an outsider.

The monk likes to recite sutras, so he published the information early, and nearby states and counties have already notified him. As long as he has good martial arts, decent personality, and whether he is educated or not, there is no need to worry about his family background.

Just when he was fully prepared in all aspects and was about to start the election, his superior's office sent an official document stating that there was a fugitive imperial prisoner. He was a eunuch, good at martial arts, and had neat facial features. His name was Pan You'an. As the name suggests, there was indeed Pan An.

Mao Yunyun (see image for details) If the criminal breaks into his territory and he is asked to help capture him, the reward will be a three-year tax exemption

The old Shangguan didn't care much about money, so it was hard to tell whether he would come or not. While he was hesitating, soldiers suddenly came to report that a young man riding a white horse went up the mountain and entered the village. He looked exactly like the man on the official document handed over by the superior...



Shangguan Bao couldn't make up his mind for a moment, whether to take action immediately or wait until the matter of choosing a son-in-law was completed before taking action. At this moment, his third daughter Shangguan Xueer hurried over and fell into his arms as soon as he entered the door, hugging his neck.

,explain:

"Dad, I think tomorrow's meeting will be forgotten! When my daughter first entered the village, she saw a young man riding a white horse. Didn't you see that man? He was majestic and handsome. He must have come to participate in a martial arts competition to recruit a bride. My daughter saw it at a glance.

If this young man is hit, dad just wants to recruit him, so what else are you doing to show off?"

"Is this the person you are talking about?" Shangguan Bao asked someone to take out the image sent by the superior.

"That's right. Daddy has such a good eye. Have you also noticed that this young man has drawn all his images?" Shangguan Xueer said cheerfully.

"No, no, no!" Shangguan Bao shook his head like a salesman.

"Why?"

"He's a eunuch!"
