The next day, Tang Feng came to the teaching army field and said to Roufu Diji and others: "Everyone, today is a mock exam. Although it is not a formal exam, everyone needs to take it seriously. The content of the exam is to start from the teaching army field and go to the army. Run east for fifteen miles and you will see a tent. The officer in the tent will give you a piece of paper with your ranking on it. After you get it, return immediately and hand the note to me. It will be considered as completing the task. In Those who complete the task within half an hour (approximately equivalent to an hour) will be deemed to have passed the exam. Now start the timing." After receiving the order, everyone got on their horses and left the teaching field.
Cai Tiao (the fifth son of Cai Jing and the husband of Maode Emperor Zhao Fujin) wanted to get the top spot in the exam, so he whipped up his horse and moved forward quickly.
However, his riding skills were not good and he fell off the horse. The horse continued to run forward. He had to get up and chase after him. It took a lot of effort to get on the horse again. When he returned to the teaching field At that time, the incense used for timing had been burned out, and three people failed. Tang Feng announced: "Those who passed the mock exam can rest in the afternoon, and those who failed will continue training in the afternoon. Tomorrow, we will start training based on the problems exposed in the mock exam." Five days of targeted training, followed by a formal exam. I hope everyone will strengthen their practice according to their own conditions, successfully pass the exam and leave Beijing." In the evening of that day, Cai Tiao and other three people who failed the exam were allowed to rest and returned home. On the way, Cai Tiao said to the servant: "Today is a fake exam. It's okay if I fail. What if Tang Feng still doesn't let me pass the real exam and can't leave the capital with him?" The servant said: "Prince-in-law, Don't worry, with your status, Tang Feng will not let you stay. If it doesn't work, go to His Majesty. As long as His Majesty speaks, you can leave the capital with him." Returning to the Prince Consort's Mansion, Cai Tiao said to Zhao Fujin : "Princess, I have been training for a whole day today and I am exhausted!" Zhao Fujin was very confused (she was pregnant at the time and did not participate in the training) and asked: "Twenty Sisters and others have a rest this afternoon, why do you continue to train?" Cai Answer: "Don't mention it. I wanted to win the jackpot in today's mock exam, but I fell off my horse and didn't complete the task on time, so I can't rest this afternoon." Zhao Fujin said: "You are impetuous and competitive. You are eager to win, and you have to win the first prize. In the end, you will lose everything. During the formal exam, you must be down-to-earth, make no mistakes, and strive for us to go together." Cai Tiao said: "This matter is easy to handle, you just need to go Just go to the emperor brother and ask him to send a handwriting to Tang Feng." Zhao Fujin was very unhappy: "Don't think of evil ways. As a relative of the emperor, you have to set an example for others." Cai Tiao saw that Zhao Fujin was angry and immediately Said: "The princess is right, I will definitely complete the task through my own efforts." If you want to know what happened next, let's look at the breakdown next time.
