Jia Huan finally figured out that there was no good person in the entire Zongzheng Temple, starting from Prince Zhongshun, the minister of Zongzheng, down to the guards and examiners.
Let's just say that this officer Wang is clearly a colleague of Youniao, and he is obviously talking to Youniao now.
In fact, he lied to Youniao from the beginning, and then stole his own lines, exaggerating to the maximum extent, and even threatening Youniao's family.
You have to live your whole life without doing any good deeds, commit evil every day, work your butt off to death, and never even take a day off to rest. Only by accumulating evil all your life can you acquire such a comrade.
But Youniao was frightened to the point of peeing. He came over on his knees, slapped himself wildly, and begged for mercy. Jia Huan reluctantly forgave him.
Next comes the assessment phase.
Jia Huan is going to take the horse archery test first.
Youniao bowed his head and introduced: "Third Master, ride your horse sideways from here, and then aim at the target in front. You only need to hit seven out of ten arrows to be excellent!"
"Five arrows is a draw, five arrows or less is a bad shot. Even if Third Master doesn't perform well, it doesn't matter. At least a draw is indispensable."
Youniao has decided to open the door for this third master.
It won't work if you don't open it. The key point is that bitch Ma Hu, who actually gave the third master a bad start at the first level. He still didn't know that Wang Chaiyou had lied to him.
At most, the third master will be given an average, and the remaining one must be an excellent one.
As a result, after another explanation, Jia Huan ignored him and directly rode towards the target.
Youniao quickly shouted: "Third Master, we have crossed the line!"
Jia Huan couldn't help but exclaimed: "My mother, she's not even close to the target. She's so far away. How can she hit the target?"
For a moment, Youniao felt that what Jia Sanye said made sense.
Not long after, Jia Huan rode his horse to the target. He was only two steps away from the target, and the horse's head almost touched the target.
Jia Huan couldn't help but ask: "Bring me a bow and arrows? How can I shoot without a bow and arrows?"
Youniao quickly bowed his head and handed over the bow and arrow.
Fortunately, the Jia family is a family of martial arts, and archery is one of the six arts of a gentleman. Although Jia Huan cannot be said to be good at archery, he can at least be considered good at it.
In the book Red Mansions, in the Grand View Garden, little Jialan can shoot deer with a bow and arrow. Therefore, Jia Huan can be considered to be able to use a bow and arrow.
If not, I'm afraid the examiner will have to come to teach on-site again.
Jia Huan took aim with his bow and arrow for a long time, then shot the arrow with a whoosh. This arrow hit the target circle.
In the middle of the target, a circle is drawn with a red line. As long as you can shoot within the circle, you will be considered to have hit the target.
Jia Huan was two steps away, and the arrow almost missed the circle.
Next, Jia Huan swished, arrowing from the left to the right, and the arrow never left the target.
Whoosh!
Another arrow. Although this arrow also hit the bullseye, the force and angle were not controlled well.
The arrow was teetering on the target and might fall at any time.
Seeing this, Jia Huan couldn't help but yelled: "My mother, are you a dead person? Are you blind? The arrow is about to fall, can't you see it? Don't you know how to insert it?"
"Alas! Alas!"
Youniao was so scolded that his head was wet with blood. He bowed his head and ran over to help insert the arrow, and then stepped aside.
Only then did he realize, belatedly, that something seemed wrong.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
After shooting the last two arrows, all ten arrows hit. Jia Huan clapped his hands, expressing satisfaction with his archery skills.
Next, Jia Huan sat on the horse, looked down at Youniao and shouted: "What are you doing standing there? What are you thinking about? Why don't you record it quickly?"
"Alas! Alas!"
Youniao quickly wrote down the record of ten out of ten in Jia Huan's horse archery test.
Jia Huan couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. As long as the results were recorded, they were not allowed to be altered. He passed the horse arrow assessment perfectly.
Next, Jia Huan clapped his hands and said, "Oh, I just shot ten arrows. I'm tired, I'm tired! I don't think I need to shoot the step arrows anymore. You can just record the results."
Hearing this, Youniao immediately lowered his head and asked, "Third Master, how about recording nine out of ten or seven out of eight out of ten?"
"Actually, as long as seven arrows hit the target, it will be regarded as an excellent one, and it will not affect the overall score. If Sanye's horse and foot shots are perfect, it would be a bit too ostentatious, wouldn't it?"
And the birds are really scared!
It would be fine if this third master was really a magic archer, but the problem is that he is not.
Once his reputation as a perfect archer spreads, the secret may leak one day, and he may be in trouble.
And the next moment he heard Jia Huan sneer: "My mother, how many times did your brain have to be kicked back and forth by a donkey before you can say such a mindless thing?"
"Third Master, I hit 10 out of 10 arrows on horseback, but when I shoot on foot, I hit 78 out of 10 arrows? Why don't you tell others clearly that these results are fake? Do you have any brains?"
Youniao couldn't hold his head up after being scolded, but he still felt that the third master's scolding seemed reasonable.
Next, Youniao hurriedly wrote a score record of ten out of ten in Jia Huan's step shooting event.
After the exam is completed, there are still several procedures to go through before Jia Huan can complete the knighthood ceremony.
But the most important thing is the test. After the test is passed, other procedures are not important.
After passing the exam, Jia Huan mounted his horse and left Zongzheng Temple leisurely.
As soon as he returned to the gate of Rongguo Mansion, he was called over by Jia Mu.
As soon as Jia Mu saw Jia Huan, she couldn't wait to ask Jia Huan, "Brother Huan, how did you do in the exam? Did you pass it?"
Jia Huan smiled slightly and said: "Lao Ancestor was thinking about it, but fortunately he lived up to his fate and got three excellent grades."
After hearing this result, Jia Mu breathed a sigh of relief. She quickly said: "Brother Huan is indeed worthy of winning the top prize. He is really different."
"First of all, those unsatisfactory losers have lost so much face to my Jia family. It's really thanks to Brother Huan that they can be captured as soon as they show up."
"If it weren't for Brother Huan, my Jia family would have been completely disgraced by them."
As soon as Jia Mu finished speaking, people in the room suddenly began to flatter her.
For a time, the room was filled with a happy atmosphere.
After returning from Jia Mu's place, Aunt Zhao, Lin Daiyu and Tanchun were all waiting for his return in Tingfengxuan.
Seeing Jia Huan walk in, Aunt Zhao couldn't wait to ask: "Huan'er, how did you do in the exam? Did you pass it?"
Jia Huan smiled and said: "Mom, are you still worried about my child going to take the exam? Of course he passed, with three excellent grades."
Aunt Zhao said happily: "Huan'er, so Ningguo Mansion will be yours from now on? Will the Ningguo Mansion's huge family property also become yours?"
Hearing what Aunt Zhao said so straightforwardly, Jia Huan didn't feel dissatisfied.
If she didn't say that, she wouldn't be Aunt Zhao.
Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "Mom, I will inherit the Ningguo Mansion. But the family business of the Ningguo Mansion is not just mine, but the entire Ningguo Mansion."
"By the way, mother, after a few days, after cleaning up, you can follow me to live in Ningguo Mansion."
