The First Tyrant of Daxia

Suddenly, the entire Shifang martial arts arena came to a standstill.

Look over there with a swish look!

Thousands of common people were watching the fun, along with a group of officials and a group of young men taking part in the martial arts examination.

The faces of the officials headed by the Minister of War, Zhao Heng, suddenly changed!

More than 30 people kneeling in the distance, this is like filing a complaint to the emperor! As long as it involves the military examination, everyone in the Ministry of War is involved.

Zhao Heng immediately gave a look to the officers and soldiers in the distance.

The latter understood what he meant and immediately instructed a group of officers and soldiers to block the view. He then began to push the thirty or so people in a rather rough manner, with threatening words and expressions.

"Your Majesty, stop looking. The auspicious time has arrived. You can announce the start of the martial arts examination."

"Those people just now were all weak in their own abilities and had obvious shortcomings. After being eliminated, they were unwilling to accept the result and came to cause trouble." Zhao Heng explained with a smile.

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap was heard.

Qin Yun mercilessly slapped the distinguished Minister of War in public, leaving him dizzy.

"You bastard, you dare to play tricks under my nose?"

"Tell your people to get out of my way, or I'll hang you on the spot, you bastard!"

Qin Yun was like an angry lion, his hair standing on end and he roared continuously.

Because he saw that more than 30 young men who came to file a complaint were pushed and shoved by officers and soldiers, and some even had their heads broken by sticks.

Seeing such a thing, he couldn't help but get angry. If it was like this when he was here, what about when he was not around?

In this way, how can I promote the talents I want?

This was the first time Zhao Heng saw Qin Yun get so angry that his legs went limp. He said in horror, "Yes, yes, yes... Your Majesty."

He immediately ran out of the martial arts arena, tumbling and crawling, and dispersed the officers and soldiers who were maintaining order.

There were more than 30 young men, dressed in rags, some with disfigured faces, but their eyes were still clear and tough. They were not afraid of power and only wanted fairness!

Qin Yun appreciated this very much!

Even if these thirty-something people are not outstanding, he will still use them!

Qin Yun walked over on foot in front of hundreds of civil and military officials and many common people.

Dressed in a dragon robe, no one dared to look him in the face wherever he went.

"I am right here."

"If you, more than thirty people, have suffered any injustice or injustice, you can tell me!" He went straight to the point and was very straightforward.

More than thirty people looked stern. They were country folk, and when they really came into close contact with the emperor, they were naturally too nervous to speak.

Seeing that they were silent, Qin Yun frowned and said, "Wasn't the noise quite loud just now? Why are you so weak now? Are you lying?!"

"No!"

A sturdy young man suddenly shouted loudly from behind.

He gritted his teeth, mustered his courage, and knelt down in front of Qin Yun: "Your Majesty, we, the common people, dare not lie!"

"We were originally going to participate in this martial arts exam, and we met all the requirements, but the number of places was limited, and the various states screened us out."

"If it was a normal elimination, I would be convinced, but I found that many of those waiting for the competition in the Shifang martial arts arena are sons of rich families and powerful people. They can't even lift a sword. How can they compete for the title of martial arts champion?"

The young man pointed to the center of the field, raised his voice, and looked directly at Qin Yun with his resolute eyes: "In fact, I have heard that the children of the rich and powerful can spend money to buy a place, but the children of poor families may not be able to get it even if they spend money!"

"They also said that after taking the martial arts exam, those with slightly better scores can get a job as an official!"

The more he spoke, the paler the faces of many officials in the field became.

Qin Yun's face became darker!

His words failed to make his point clear, so he repeated it again and again, emphasizing that the military examination is open to everyone, regardless of whether they are powerful or poor.

But there are still people who pretend to obey but actually disobey!

Does this mean that you feel like you can do whatever you want just because you haven't killed anyone for a month?

"Your Majesty, please be fair. Since you are holding a military examination, you should accept all capable people. We are all common people from the same hometown who want to serve our country but have no way to do so. This military examination may be our only chance in life!"

"Your Majesty, please give me a fair chance!"

"We will repay Your Majesty with our blood and loyalty!"

The sturdy young man's words were deafening and filled my blood with passion.

Qin Yun first glanced coldly at the officials around him. Many of them avoided his gaze and lowered their heads.

Zhao Heng had a look of agony on his face. The various prefectures were not under his jurisdiction, and he was known for favoritism and abuse of power. How could he know everything? He was even slapped in the face. It was so damn unfair.

"Raise your head." Qin Yun said gently.

The sturdy young man raised his head, with strong features, about twenty-five years old. Although he looked ordinary, he exuded determination and unyielding youthful passion.

"What's your name?" Qin Yun asked again.

"Your Majesty, I am Yan Zhong!"

"Great!" Qin Yun shouted, "What a great Yan Zhong! What a great name!"

"I like you very much. You and your fellow countrymen do not need to participate in the military examination. You can report directly to Xuanwu Gate. I will make use of you!"

More than thirty people were delighted, they went from hell to heaven!

Suddenly, Yan Zhong gritted his teeth, bowed his head and saluted, saying: "Your Majesty, I want to be the top martial arts champion and a general. Can you let me participate in this martial arts examination?"

The words fell.

The Shifang martial arts arena erupted in laughter, and some officials also looked at him with contempt.

"A lousy rice planter actually wants to be a general. What a pipe dream. Don't you have any shame!"

"I don't think this kid can even read a single word. How can he, as a general, understand military books?"

"I don't want to associate with anyone who is just trying to attract attention!"

"You stinky thing, get away from me, or I'll hit you and smash your jaw with one punch!"

"..."

Listening to the discussions and laughter of the people around and the children of the powerful and wealthy.

A trace of sadness flashed across the eyes of Yan Zhong and more than 30 young country men. It would be a lie to say that they did not feel inferior, and it would also be a lie to say that they were not angry, but they did not dare to show it.

Qin Yun had been observing Yan Zhong. After a brief moment of embarrassment, his eyes regained their firmness.

Those who have thunder in their hearts but a calm face can be worshipped as generals!

This person can be reused.

"Okay, I promise you that you will be allowed to participate in the martial arts examination!" Qin Yun said with his hands behind his back.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yan Zhong's tense body relaxed and he kowtowed heavily, expressing his extreme gratitude.

Qin Yun looked at the people serving as officials outside the martial arts arena and shouted, "I am here. Is there anyone who failed the exam but wants to participate in the martial arts exam?"

Outside the martial arts arena, there was a crowd of people, some eager to try.

Not long after, a strong man took the lead and walked into the martial arts arena: "Your Majesty, I am Kou Tianxiong, a commoner. After being eliminated, I still want to participate and serve the court!"

"Very good, I agree!"

Immediately afterwards, nearly two hundred unsuccessful men came forward, wanting to take this opportunity to take part in the martial arts examination and compete for those few chances.

What’s hateful is that these two hundred people are all from poor families and are dressed in rags.

Qin Yun kept this matter and the quota buying and selling in mind, and after the martial arts examination was over, he would settle the accounts one by one!

A short half-incense stick of time.

He calmed down the incident of kneeling down to file a complaint to the emperor, thus avoiding bad influence, and with his broad mind, he established a good image in front of these children from poor families!

Qin Yun returned to the high platform of the martial arts arena and watched the competition from the best position!

His dragon robe billowed, he looked down and shouted, "I declare the martial arts examination to begin!"
