It's strange to get used to ten people in a tent. Most of the candidates are tall and rough. The snoring this night can probably be compared with that of a symphony orchestra. Qin Xuan sleeps relatively lightly. It is estimated that this night is really difficult, but again There is nothing you can do, everyone is like this, you can only follow the crowd, and you can't be special. The army is all about teamwork. If you are special, you will be isolated.
It is very common in the army to live in groups. During the war, it was impossible for every officer to have a separate tent. Only those at the general level could have one. Generally, low-level officers ate and lived with the soldiers. This time the assessment was conducted outside the city, Yuanyuan and the others probably didn't know either. Candidates are not allowed to go home during the exam, and there is no preparation, otherwise they would have to bring a travel tent with them.
Although I don't lack anything in the space, I can't take it out in front of everyone. Otherwise, I will be treated as a monster by these people. The food in this military camp is probably not much better, and I will live like an ascetic for a few days. , I didn¡¯t see Yuanyuan and the others coming to watch the assessment today, otherwise they could have been asked to go home and prepare some things.
"Brother, I'm here to see you"
"Zhang Chen, why are you here? You don't have to go to school today?" Qin Xuan asked in surprise.
"I have to go. This is not the lunch break. I came here specifically to take a look. Many of my classmates are here. I heard that you made a big splash today. I missed the show. I just rushed here to watch your exam. "
"What are you doing here in such a short time? You are not going to school in the afternoon?" Qin Xuan asked.
"We have all asked for leave. The scholars have finished their scientific examinations, but the Imperial College is still in a mess. These two days have been basically self-study. It doesn't matter whether we go to school or not," Zhang Chen said with a smile.
"Well, you're here just in time. Let me introduce you. This is Brother Zhai Zhengu, a friend I met today. Later you go back and tell your sisters-in-law that the candidates cannot go home and live in the imperial city Zuowu. I have room and board in Wei¡¯s barracks, and asked them to prepare and bring me a wash and a change of clothes. Otherwise, after taking the exam in a few days, the clothes on my body will probably be rotten,¡± Qin Xuan said with a smile.
"Hello, brother Zhengu. My surname is Zhang, and my last name is Chen. Did you take the exam? How are your results?" Zhang Chen asked with a smile.
"Haha Brother Zhengu is the first person to pass the level shooting test in this year's martial arts examination, and his results are also the best so far," Qin Xuan said with a thumbs up.
"Really? That little brother is disrespectful. Big brother, go back and inform the sisters-in-law, so I don't have to run away. Look who is in the three cars over there? Not only the sisters-in-law are here, but also the little darlings, Ziyao I'm watching archery with them over there," Zhang Chen said with a smile.
Sure enough, I saw three cars parked in the distance in the north. Because more and more people were watching, there were no good seats nearby. People were next to each other. Only the examiner's side in the north did not have too many idle people. , the family members of some officials, watching here, it is probably the beauty Guo who came forward to allow them to park there.
As a princess and the daughter of General Guo, she still has a certain reputation in the army. She still has a little face. They didn't get out of the car to watch. Besides, they all had children with them, so it was not convenient for them to get out of the car. She just opened the car curtains and watched from a distance. When she saw Qin Xuan waving to them, Beauty Guo picked up Xiao Jiajing's hand and shook it to say hello.
"Brother Jingyuan, is your wife here? She's here to cheer you on. It's too far over there. Ask them to come over here and watch. There are still stools to sit on," Zhai Tanzhuan said.
It stands to reason that this kind of occasion is not suitable for women's families, but on the examiner's side, there are many officials and family members watching. The Tang Dynasty was more open than other dynasties in this regard. It is normal for women to show up. As for the sport of polo, Chang'an City has a dedicated women's polo team, which often competes with men, and the same is true for Cuju.
When Qin Xuan arrived at the carriage, she saw that only Miss Guo and Sister Yan were in the car, while in the other two cars were Yu The real princess and the flying princess Li Mei, Ziyao are talking to them.
"I said why don't you go there? It turns out there are two big figures here. Why didn't aunt go to the tower to watch and came here quietly? If the Holy Lord knew about it, he would be angry." Qin Xuan reached out and took over his son and daughter, smiling. Then he said to Princess Yuzhen.
"Haha I'm not free on the tower. I can't see as clearly as here. I heard that you are in the limelight today. Do you have any hope of getting the top prize in martial arts?" Princess Yuzhen said with a smile.
"Jingyuan this this is the eldest princess I am polite to the lower official Zhai Tan."
Qin Xuan turned around and saw that Zhai Tanzhuan had come with him. He might not be familiar with Li Mei, the flying princess, but he knew the famous eldest princess. When Qin Xuan shouted??You have to pass the test. By the way, Sister Yan, all candidates taking part in this martial arts examination are not allowed to go home. One of you will go back later and help me prepare a change of clothes, a tent, a sleeping bag, and toiletries for the past few days. Bring them over. We will be staying in the military camp in the imperial city tonight, and the food in the military camp is probably not that good. It would be best if we can make some delicious food and send it over when we have time." Qin Xuan changed the topic and said with a smile.
"Hehe you can just eat in the military camp. You should suffer and exercise. Otherwise, when you go to the border in the future, the conditions may be even worse. Now it's time to exercise in advance," Miss Guo said with a smile.
