The monarch waited outside for a while, a little worried about what happened to the little princess.
"Little Snow."
He called out.
The little princess stood on the windowsill and looked anxiously at Xiao Jiu holding the small bamboo tube: "I, I, I... I'm still stinking! Don't come in!"
The king sighed helplessly and continued to wait in the corridor.
After hesitating for a moment, he was still not at ease. He came to the door and said, "Don't fall in."
The little princess said: "I won't!"
She didn't really go to the toilet, how could she fall into the toilet
The monarch lingered outside for a while: "Aren't you coming out yet?"
"almost done!"
The monarch finally became impatient, always feeling that the little guy was weird inside.
"I'm in," said the king.
The king pushed open the door.
The little guy even locked the door!
There are ghosts, there must be ghosts!
"Zhang Dequan." The monarch called out in a deep voice.
Zhang Dequan understood, pulled the hairpin from his head, reached in three or two times, and pried off the latch.
He pushed open the door, and the monarch stepped in with a sullen face.
"I knew you were making a fool of yourself!"
The monarch looked at Xiaodouding who was lying on the window sill seriously. Xiaodouding was holding a big bird in both hands. Xu, because the monarch moved too much, her small body trembled.
When she turned around, she couldn't hide her guilty conscience of being caught.
After seeing that the big bird in her hand turned out to be an eagle, the monarch was in a bad mood!
"Come on!"
With his order, Zhang Dequan rushed in with the guards, and the guards rushed towards the eagle that attacked the little county master in three steps.
The little princess gave up in fright.
Xiao Jiu fluttered his wings and flew away.
The little princess pursed her lips and cried out loudly: "Wow - I managed to catch Xiao Jiu - you scared me away - I want Xiao Jiu - I want Xiao Jiu - "
She can still call out her name.
The monarch walked over and slid the little guy into his arms, looked up and down to make sure he was not injured, and then asked, "What is Xiao Jiu?"
"It's the bird just now, it's called Xiao Jiu."
"So you didn't come to pull the stinky, you just wanted to catch the birds?"
The head of the small county howled twice, bowed his head and pointed his fingers.
This look fell into the eyes of the king because he guessed right, the little guy is here to catch birds!
The monarch was so angry that he said, "That's an eagle, it will hurt people, aren't you afraid of being bitten by it?"
The little county master said in a low voice, "Xiao Jiu doesn't bite."
Look at this mouth, since I went to school, I can talk more and more every day.
"Whose bird?" asked the king.
The little county master shrunk his mouth and said, "It's empty. Uncle, why does he have a bird and I don't? I'm so sad."
You will be sad if you have birds, you are a little girl!
The king supports the forehead.
What is this all about
The monarch made the little girl confused, he took a deep breath, feeling that he was going to run wild at any time.
"Go back to the palace!"
If he doesn't go back to the palace, he's afraid he'll kick her ass!
The little princess lowered her head: "Oh."
The little princess was taken away by the monarch.
When she returned to the carriage, she suddenly said, "Uncle, I want to hide inside, you find me!"
Children really want to come out.
"No!" The king ruthlessly refused.
The little princess hugged the monarch's thigh, and her grandmother coquettishly said: "What do you want, what do you want, uncle is looking for Xiaoxue, look for it~ I beg~"
It's no use asking!
"I only have a few dozen strokes." The monarch gritted his teeth.
"Uncle is the best, Xiaoxue loves you!" The little princess sauntered onto the carriage, closed the curtain, and stuffed the small bamboo tubes in the book bag back into the hidden compartments one by one.
…
Kylin Hall.
Xiao Heng and Gu Jiao both went to the Zizhu Forest to chop bamboo, and when Xiao Jiu brought the bamboo tube over, there were only Shangguan Yan and Xiao Jingkong in the house.
When Shangguan Yan saw the bamboo tubes used by the emperor, he knew that they belonged to the monarch.
She couldn't move herself, so Xiao Jingkong went over to ask what was going on.
"It's the teacher's exam question." The little princess said, "Is the teacher there? Show it to the teacher, so my uncle can't find out."
Gu Jiao wasn't there, so I couldn't read it at the moment, but Xiao Qingkong couldn't bear the memory, so she quickly memorized the content of the exam questions.
Xiao Jingkong is a strict child. He not only wrote down each note one by one, but also asked Yu He to ask for six bamboo tubes to put the note in, so he restored the details.
- The difference is that the monarch's bamboo tube is the smallest one, and what Yu He finds for him is the largest one.
So, when Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng came back after cutting the bamboo, they saw six extra large bamboo tubes on the table.
Well, that's an exaggeration.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Heng asked.
"Xiaoxue said it was Jiaojiao's exam question." Xiaojingkong patted her little chest, "I've memorized it, I wrote these!"
The two exchanged glances, exam questions? Is it what they think
The two took the exam questions to the next door.
Xiao Heng closed the door and sat down at the table with Gu Jiao.
"Six bamboo tubes, six promotions... Open it." He looked at the bamboo tubes on the table and said.
"En." Gu Jiao picked up a bamboo tube, poured out the note inside, and read, "Enter the Songshan Mountains, raid the enemy camp near Biyuequan, seize the secret letter, and send the secret letter to the first beacon fire. battalion, hand it over to the left lieutenant of the battalion garrison."
"It sounds like your final selection mission this time." Xiao Heng paused, "But why are there six bamboo tubes?"
Gu Jiao opened the second bamboo tube, "You are the Turks' meticulous work. This is the real secret letter of the Turkic army. Quickly bring the only secret letter to the first beacon camp, and hand it over to the right lieutenant general of the rebel army in this camp."
"What do you mean?" Gu Jiao asked.
Xiao Heng said: "The secret letter found during the raid on the enemy camp was a fake one. If he hadn't read this bamboo tube, probably no one would have known that he had taken away a fake secret letter. In that case, even if he reached the end, the mission also failed."
Gu Jiao frowned: "What a thief. In this way, the task of escorting the real secret letter is more advantageous. You don't have to fight the enemy, and you don't have to worry about the fake secret letter."
Xiao Heng always felt that things were not so simple: "Look at the third one first."
Gu Jiao opened the third bamboo tube, and the situation changed unexpectedly this time: "Entering the Songshan Mountains, raiding the enemy camp near Huangshupo, snatching their secret letter, sending the secret letter to the second beacon camp, and handing it over by hand. Guard the left lieutenant at the base camp."
Gu Jiao immediately opened the fourth one.
"You are the Turks' meticulous work. This is the real secret letter of the Turkic army. Quickly bring the only secret letter to the second beacon camp, and hand it over to the right lieutenant of the rebel army in this camp."
"Well, is this a different location and NPC to dungeon?"
"What?" Xiao Heng didn't understand the last two words.
Gu Jiao explained: "It's just that the location and characters are different. The form of the mission is the same as the first group. One goes to the enemy camp to grab fakes, and the other escorts the real one."
"Look at the last two as well." Xiao Heng said, he probably changed the soup instead of the medicine.
Sure enough, the destination of the remaining two was the Third Beacon Camp, and the raid location was Zicaotan in the Songshan Mountains.
Gu Jiao made a summary: "This competition is divided into three groups, and each group has one cavalry and one detailed work, but how do we divide the winners and losers? For example, me, Gu Changqing, Han Wuye, we All three have been selected for the detailed work, and all of them have safely delivered the secret letter to their respective rebels, so who of us is the promotion?"
Xiao Heng shook his head thoughtfully: "It is impossible to complete the task at the same time, only to fail at the same time."
Gu Jiao was slightly startled: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Heng opened the note: "Look at the meticulous words again... 'Quickly bring the only secret letter', this sole is the key point of the whole mission. You clearly have three meticulous works, why do you say the only letter?"
Gu Jiao thought for a while: "Because the destination is different? For example, this secret letter is the only one going to the first beacon camp."
"Then there's no need to emphasize the uniqueness." Xiao Heng boldly analyzed, "I think this uniqueness refers to destroying the secret letter of the other two meticulous works, and turning my secret letter into the only secret letter."
He said, and opened another note belonging to the cavalry, "And the cavalry's mission has the word "they", since the secret letter in the enemy camp is fake, then they should refer to the three meticulous works. "
Gu Jiao understood when he said this: "So, the cavalry's task is to grab three secret letters, and the detailed task is to destroy the secret letters in the hands of others. In this way, there must be a fierce battle between the six."
Xiao Heng sighed: "Three to rob, three to destroy, what's more than a fierce battle? It's a deadly battle."
Gu Jiao thought of a possibility, frowned, and asked, "What if everything fails? For example, the secret letter is completely destroyed."
Xiao Heng looked solemn: "Then the winner... is the monarch!"
The monarch never thought of letting anyone win.
He first borrowed the power of the top ten aristocratic families to get everyone to agree to the proposal to select the commander of the Black Wind Knights, and then used the selection rules to eliminate all the cavalry. In this way, he can say with a high-sounding voice—it’s not that I don’t give you a chance, it’s that You don't have the ability to do this yourself, so I can only take back the black wind rider for the time being.
Gu Jiao said, "Just like he took back the military power of the Mu family."
King Dayan's mind is really deeper than the sea.
Xiao Heng stared and said, "This time is not only a struggle with the noble family, but also a struggle with King Dayan. Fortunately, we know the exam questions and have a great advantage."
Gu Jiao said sternly, "I won't let him get his wish."
She won't let the family get their wish, she must take back the Xuanyuan family's Black Wind Knight!
…
The three-day period came as promised.
The six Gu Jiao went to the Han family's cavalry battalion early in the morning to gather.
It was Wang Xu who came from the Duwei Mansion.
No one in the Wang family was promoted this time, Wang Xu put his hope on Mu Qingchen, but when he saw Gu Jiao, he suddenly felt that it would be good if Gu Jiao was promoted.
The two did not communicate at all, and they did not know each other when they saw it.
After the group assembled, they headed to the entrance of the Songshan Mountains in a mighty manner.
The Secretary of the Ministry of War announced the rules of this round of assessment, which is roughly to learn martial arts until the point is reached, and not to hurt life, etc. Those who violate the rules will have their selection results cancelled and sentenced according to law.
Then began to enter the small bamboo houses one by one to draw lots.
On the surface, the number plate is drawn, but it is actually the task of this selection.
Inside the small bamboo house sat Wang Xu and Honglu Siqing. It was a relatively closed space. Except for the cavalry and the two examiners, no one knew the task on the note.
Gu Jiao was the last to enter the small bamboo hut. After she came out, the Minister of War sounded the gong.
The five of them rode their horses into the mountains, and soon they separated.
Only Gu Jiao was leisurely, not like a horse, but like a donkey, and the examiners were anxious for her.
You should go!
Do you miss us or what
Gu Jiao couldn't bear them.
After Gu Jiao waited for the others to go far enough, she quickly followed in the direction where Gu Changqing left.
Gu Changqing had been waiting halfway.
Seeing her coming, he rode his horse over and said, "They're all gone, it's safe here."
"What did you get?" Gu Jiao asked.
Gu Changqing handed her his note.
Gu Jiao took a closer look, sighed, and said, "You have drawn the cavalry of the No. 1 Beacon Fire Camp, I am a meticulous work of the No. 1 Beacon Fire Camp!"
Gu Changqing smiled slightly: "We are a battalion, that's great."
He and his sister are related.
Gu Jiao: Uh, as long as you are happy.
Gu Changqing didn't care that he was a cavalry soldier and his sister was a meticulous craftsman. Anyway, he could turn against the tide at any time for her sister's sake.
Gu Changqing said in a good mood: "I saw that everyone went in different directions, so I guessed that everyone's destination might be different, but I didn't guess that even their identities were different."
Gu Jiao told Gu Changqing the analysis of the six bamboo tubes.
Gu Changqing woke up like a dream: "I thought I would get the secret letter if I went to raid the enemy camp."
Gu Jiao waved her hand: "It's a fake secret letter, it's useless to get it, the real secret letter is in the hands of the three of us. They are still in the dark, let's rob them!"
Gu Changqing gave her sister a doting glance: "Okay."
Gu Jiao asked, "Where did the four of them go?"
Gu Changqing said: "Daoist Qingfeng and Mu Qingchen went to the due east, Han Wuye and Jun Xiuhan went to the southeast, who should we go after first?"
