The sun is bright and the autumn wind is high, it is the time for men to study;

In a single courtyard in the Wensi Hall, Shen Wenqiu and Gongsun Ming sat at the stone table, and Gongsun Ming muttered to himself: "The mountain is not high, if there is an immortal, it is famous, and if the water is not deep, if there is a dragon, it will be spiritual." Immortals, dragons..."

He looked up and saw that Shen Wenqiu, who was holding a pen, had written these two sentences at this time, and he used hieroglyphs to express the "immortal" and "dragon" vividly;

Shen Wenqiu thought for a while and said: "Brother Gongsun, whether there are unpredictable, immortal immortals and dragons calling the wind and rain in this world, I can only say that I don't know, because I haven't seen it; ”

Gongsun Ming said modestly: "I would like to hear about it." ”

Shen Wenqiu asked: "I don't know if Brother Gongsun can produce the sentence 'Si is a burrow, but I am Dexin'." ”

Gongsun Ming explained: "Although the house is simple, as long as the character is noble, I don't care so much about the quality of the house. ”

Shen Wenqiu smiled and said, "Don't you think that Mr. Liu Mengde's words contain this great wisdom? ”

Gongsun Ming disagreed with Shen Wenqiu's statement, expressed his opinion, and said: "Wenqiu, I think a good man is ambitious, passionate and hot, standing between heaven and earth. If you are born in a troubled world, you must carry a three-foot long sword to protect your family and defend the country and level the chaos in the world, and your will will be unstoppable. If you are born in a peaceful and prosperous world, hide your sword in the soldier's mound, and advise the people not to be afraid of death and life, but to be worthy of your heart. ”

Shen Wenqiu solemnly bowed to Gongsun Ming, and said: "Brother Gongsun, good ambition, Wenqiu is ashamed of himself, standing in heaven and earth, getting the creation of the heavens, the grace of the earth, but he has no great ambitions, he is not happy for the people in the world, nor is he filial piety for his parents, and he is ashamed; ”

Perhaps he was infected by Gongsun Ming's ambition, and Shen Wenqiu, who had no ambitions, said a bunch of ambitions;

Gongsun Ming patted Shen Wenqiu's shoulder excitedly, and said, "When the time comes, you and my brother will join forces to assist the king, and for the people, it will be a good story for Guan Bao's friends." ”

Gongsun Ming had a light in his eyes when he said this, and he seemed to have seen the prosperous scene of joining forces with Shen Wenqiu to assist the political state.

The eldest princess's mansion, "Princess, it has been ascertained that the young man who beat the young master is called Shen Wenqiu, and he is a candidate who came to Kyoto from Nanshan Mansion to take the exam, and that Gongsun Ming is also a candidate who entered Kyoto to take the exam, from Nanli Mansion, and he did not beat the young master." The middle-aged man in armor truthfully presented himself to the eldest princess, who pondered for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, the examiner for this year's invigilator is Liu Shilang from the Ministry of Officials, right?"

The man didn't reply, because he didn't know either, it was not easy to interject, he was just the shadow of the eldest princess, and he was only responsible for doing things for the eldest princess, not for conspiracy.

The eldest princess instructed: "You go to Liu Shilang, remind him, take more care of this Shen Wenqiu, find a group of people to teach the two of them a lesson, don't lose the face of our Su family, let them know that the face of this Su family is not something that a cat or a dog can beat." ”

Su Qingshu went home to raise for a few days, and the bruises on his face disappeared; after the scar was good, he forgot the pain, and went to the street again, but this time he also learned a little smarter, and brought a few more family members; asked casually: "Have you found out?"

The subordinate named Chuan'er had long wanted to avenge the slap, and he was very attentive, "Young master, I have inquired clearly, and those two boys live in the Wensi Guild Hall." ”

When Su Qingshu heard this, he kicked him in the ass fiercely and scolded, "You fuck, can we enter the Wensi Guild Hall?"

Chuan'er hurriedly explained with a smile: "Young master, I have found out, they went out this morning and went to Wenwan Street to join in the fun, and we may be able to meet again in the past." ”

Su Qingshu said with a bright smile on his face: "Chuan'er, this thing is good, I will reward you well when I go back." ”

"Princess, the young master has already brought someone there, do we still want to interfere?" On the way back from Liu Shilang, the middle-aged man met Su Qingshu with a group of people with sticks, and he didn't go up to greet him, so he came back to report the situation to the princess.

The eldest princess didn't expect that she would send someone to follow her for a few days, ready to find a secret place and teach them a lesson.

After all, these two people have a reputation and are registered in the Wensi Guild Hall, if they kill the two of them, the people of Kyoto will suspect their Su family's façade for the first time, and it will stink the reputation of the Su family. So you can't kill, at most you can only teach a lesson.

The eldest princess knew that her son would only make a small fuss and would not take their lives, so she said: "Forget it, he has already scared the snake like this, call all your people back! “

Gambling stones are unique products of the Southern Ming Kingdom, and I don't know how these stones are formed, but most of these stones can unlock some strange things, some are priceless, some are worthless, so gambling stones are generally the best choice for those who want to get rich overnight, but ordinary people can't afford to play gambling stones. Getting rich overnight is just thinking about it.

But Su Qingshu went to Wenwan Street, he had long forgotten his purpose, and gambled on stones in the gambling stone shop, and his mother thought he wanted to avenge himself?

Su Qingshu's mood is not very good, he has already lost more than a thousand taels, and he has not caught anything, but he is unwilling, he always wants to catch some back, just when he touched a big stone, suddenly, an abrupt voice remembered, "Don't look at it, Master Su, there is nothing on that stone?" Hearing this familiar voice, Su Qingshu's anger came up, surrounded Shen Wenqiu and the three of them, and scolded angrily: " What the hell are you, Shen Wenqiu, Lao Tzu is looking for you everywhere, and you sent it to the door yourself, just when Lao Tzu is full of anger, and he hasn't sprinkled it yet?"

Su Qingshu bowed his head to the servant next to him and shouted, "Call me?"

Shen Wenqiu waved his hand and said, "Eh, Young Master Su shouldn't be so angry! Didn't he just let you kneel on the ground and kowtow a few times?"

Hearing this, Su Qingshu became even more angry, and scolded those subordinates with wooden sticks: "What the hell are you stunned about?

When everyone heard that their young master was angry, they rushed forward desperately, and when the stick was about to hit Shen Wenqiu, Shen Wenqiu shouted: "I can help you win back the thousand taels." ”

When Su Qingshu heard this, he immediately shouted: "Stop" is so dangerous, just one inch away, this stick is next to Shen Wen's thalamus. Fu Bo and Gongsun Ming's hearts were both raised to their throats, and this "stop" made their hearts return from their throats and eyes to their stomachs, this scene was really thrilling!

Su Qingshu asked, "Can you really help me win back a thousand taels?"

Shen Wenqiu said unhurriedly: "I can not only help Su Shao win back the thousand taels, but also give you a big gift." ”

Su Qingshu didn't care about any big gifts? The 1,000 taels he cared about were his pocket money for half a year.

"But I have two conditions. I don't know if Su Shao can agree?" Shen Wenqiu said his purpose; although Su Qingshu was a little sneering, he was not a fool, and asked cautiously, "You can talk about it first?"

Shen Wenqiu didn't expect that this gentleman still had a bit of a brain, and he thought he would nod directly?

Shen Wenqiu said confidently: "First, I will help Su Shao win back the thousand taels, and our last incident will be written off, as if it never happened, how about it?"

Su Qingshu thought about this transaction and didn't lose money, so he asked, "What about the second one?"

Shen Wenqiu said: "This first Su Shao has agreed, and it doesn't matter if you agree to this second request?"

"I gave Su Shao a second gift, just to make friends with Su Shao, I don't mean anything else. After saying that, regardless of whether Su Qingshu agreed or not, he went into the gambling stone shop and picked up the stone, this is not something that Shen Wenqiu should consider, such a cost-effective deal, Su Qingshu can't not do it, unless he is a fool.

Shen Wenqiu is not very good at gambling stones, just read a few idle books, he carefully observed the stones, and excluded the stones without textures, and everyone looked at him carefully and thought that he was an expert, and gradually gathered around to see the excitement.

However, Shen Wenqiu's pick is an hour, and those who are impatient have long since left.

At this hour, Shen Wenqiu also picked five stones, not big or small.

made everyone wonder if he was playing tricks.

The five stones picked by Shen Wenqiu are neither big nor small, one is twenty taels, and the total cost is one hundred taels;

I don't know what Shen Wenqiu thinks, and said: "Everyone, I've seen the excitement, I don't participate in it, I'm too sorry for wasting my time here, why don't we open a gambling market and participate?"

Shen Wenqiu's operation made Su Qingshu confused, whether this was to help him win back a thousand taels or play himself! But Shen Wenqiu's next sentence could directly make him vomit blood, "Everyone, let's open a game, Young Master Su will be the dealer for you, guess that the odds of five stones have something is one to ten, four to eight, three to one to six, and the rest are one to four;

Before he finished speaking, Su Qingshu stepped forward to cover Shen Wenqiu's mouth, and scolded in a low voice: "What the hell are you, do you want Lao Tzu to go bankrupt?" Everyone saw this action, and felt that Young Master Su had no heart for this young man at all, and the person who was still wavering in his heart just now also decided to buy the odds of one to four, of course he couldn't miss this cheap pick-up, so he urged: "Young Master Su, can't you open the market yet?"

Su Qingshu just wanted to shout, but Shen Wenqiu, who broke away from his hand, said in a low voice: "If you want to get back the thousand taels, just listen to me." ”

Shen Wenqiu said again: "If you say it and splash out the water, Young Master Su will definitely be the banker for everyone, otherwise where will the Su family's face go?"

When Su Qingshu heard this, his face was even uglier than that of his dead mother, and he shouted impatiently: "Open, open..."

When everyone saw Su Qingshu's face, they were more inclined to the odds of one to four.

Shen Wenqiu thanked Su Qingshu from the bottom of his heart!

Although I am not very sure that all the stones will be of value, but when I open something, I still have a little confidence in three or four stones;

But after Su Qingshu's trouble, everyone would not believe that he could open something and choose to bet with odds of one to four, it seems that even if he can't open anything valuable this time, Su Qingshu will make money.
