Recently, many scholars and talents from Runzhou sent invitations, intending to invite Su Chen to the restaurant for a banquet, but he did not respond, and he did not go at all.

First, I was worried that it would be dangerous for me to go out, in case Ding's dog jumped off the wall in a hurry. The second is that he really doesn't want to talk about poetry and articles with those sour Confucian scholars and scholars, he doesn't know them at all, and he also has friendships, and he goes to socialize, he doesn't like it, and he feels that there is no need to accompany him.

As for the invitations sent by Qinglou, Su Chen also threw them into the paper basket, and he was not interested in it either, even Liu Huadan of Xiangyun Pavilion was his friend of the opposite sex, and he could come to meet him at any time, and he was no longer interested in the Qingqi people in other fireworks places.

Even if some scholars came to visit, he refused to meet on the grounds that he was studying hard behind closed doors and preparing for the autumn exam at home, claiming that if he passed the imperial examination this year, he would meet all the talented people again and drink and talk.

This determination and posture of paying attention to the imperial examination made many scholars awe-inspired, and it was not easy to pick up the courtesy. When the news spread, many Runzhou Confucians heard the words, and they also praised Su Gongzi's general knowledge, and attaching so much importance to the imperial examination is a manifestation of respecting teachers and respecting the Tao.

Su Chen has been at home for the past few days, but he is also comfortable, eating and drinking without worry, laundry, cooking, cleaning the yard and other rough work, everything is done by servants, he and Ling'er are relieved, and the practice is becoming more and more active.

Yang Ling'er's talent is better, Hu Zhongxian is more careful with her, almost teaching her everything, what boxing and footwork, light footwork, hidden weapon swordsmanship, etc., are both strict and carefully taught, it can be expected that Ling'er's martial arts will definitely speed up.

Su Chen devoted himself to practicing swords, for him, it was better to practice more than to practice, to practice the swordsmanship to a deep level, to reduce ten times with one force, and his combat effectiveness was more effective and practical than his practice of other martial arts.

When Peng Jingqing was bored in bed, Su Chen would enter the room and tell her a story.

"In the end, who did Zhang Wuji choose?"

Su Chen replied: "That county lord surnamed Zhao!" ”

Peng Jingqing thought for a moment and said: "Why, the four girls who like him at the same time, why does he like the barbaric Zhao County Lord, is it because of her noble status, or because ..... dare to love and hate?" Don't all men like gentle girls like Zhou Zhiruo? ”

Su Chen hesitated and said, "This is fate!" Although the girl was gentle and virtuous that week, her personality was flawed and she was not assertive enough, because of her teacher and her life, she hurt Zhang Gongzi several times. Many times, feelings are pure and flawless, and if they are stabbed with a knife a few times, they will have cracks, and it is difficult to pretend that nothing has happened. ”

But Miss Zhao is different, since she fell in love with Zhang Wuji, she has opposed his father and brother several times, and she doesn't care about the tasks assigned by the court, she dares to love and hate, and she can sacrifice everything for love, including her stabbing herself to protect Zhang Gongzi. For him, he fell into danger several times, and such a blazing love moved the indecisive Zhang Wuji, and their relationship was even more sparkling! ”

Peng Jingqing nodded slightly, looked into his eyes and said, "If you are Zhang Wuji, and there are four girls like Zhou Zhiruo, Zhao Min, Ah Li, and Xiao Zhao, who will you choose in the end?" Is it also Miss Zhao's kind? ”

Su Chen thought about it, when he first watched this movie, he was actually not satisfied with the ending, so he said disapprovingly: "Children make choices!" ”

"What do you mean?"

Su Chen smiled and said: "Adults, of course you are greedy, if you can stay by your side, the story may be more complete!" ”

Peng Jingqing reacted at this time, and the meaning of his words couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and he said angrily: "You still want all four of you to marry you!" ”

Su Chen smiled and said, "I'm not thinking about the happy ending of the story!" If you are Xiao Zhao, you are Ah Li, and you are Zhou Zhiruo, don't you want to have a chance? ”

Peng Jingqing was angry, but it was difficult to refute, if she was the Zhao girl, it would be fine, if it was the other three women, she would also feel pity and sympathy, so she couldn't say too much, too full, but the four girls were married to a man, she still couldn't accept it.

After all, after the death of her father's wife, she had only one concubine, and she has not been straightened so far. Peng's father's infatuation and infatuation have established a good image of a man for Peng Jingqing since he was a child, so he was a little subconsciously rejected by Su Chen's acceptance of four women, but he was worried that he would be eliminated, so he was a little embarrassed.

Su Chen hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Okay, don't mention this matter, I'll tell you a new story, that is, the martial arts legend of the hero Guo Jing, the great man of chivalry, for the country and the people." ”

Peng Jingqing's attention was diverted, and he didn't sulk anymore, but became curious and listened carefully.

Su Chen started with the beginning of the Condor shooting, the background of the Song Dynasty in it, the virtual Jin Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty was divided into the Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty, similar to the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, it was also the northern royal family perished, was invaded by foreign tribes, and was forced to cross the Yangtze River to the south, and established the southern regime, which survived.

As a result, Guo Jing, the hero of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, appeared.

This story is very long, and it can never be finished in a day or two, so Su Chen will tell her every night for half an hour.

Sometimes, Bai Susu came to visit her, and would sit on the edge of the bed and listen to Su Chen's story.

………

The moonlight is hazy, and the stars are inlaid in the night, looming.

Su Chen stood in the courtyard, still insisting on practicing the knife, covered in sweat, with special breathing, knife holding posture, chopping strength, etc., it is a little difficult to control, especially after the chopping to two hundred and sixty and seventy knives, the remaining twenty or thirty knives, the arm is numb.

"Click!"

Another knife was slashed, and the firewood was split in half in response, and the blade did not cut on the wooden pier below, but at a distance of three or four centimeters, so that it could be sent and received freely.

Bai Susu walked out of the Qinqing room, stood under the eaves of the courtyard, and looked at Su Chen, who was constantly practicing his swordsmanship under the moonlight, sweating profusely, but his body was like a mountain, unwavering, he was gritting his teeth and persevering, and he did not relax.

For some reason, Bai Susu suddenly felt that Su Chen's whole person had more masculinity than a few days ago.

He used to have fair skin and a handsome appearance, although he was attractive, but he was too bookish and angry, and he did not have the physique and temperament of a man.

However, now that Su Chen was wearing a vest and shoulders, exposing his arms and a lot of chest skin, and there were a lot of sweat stains, Bai Susu saw it on the side, and suddenly felt a strong masculine breath rushing over.

"Weirdos!" Bai Susu sighed secretly, she couldn't understand why a talented person like Su Chen liked to practice martial arts so much, and it seemed that he didn't work so hard to read books and prepare for exams.

Finally, after Su Chen finished slashing three hundred knives, he put down his weapon, and his arms were moving, soothing and relaxing.

Bai Susu stepped forward and asked, "Brother Chen, don't you have to review those imperial examination scrolls and Confucian classics?" ”

Su Chen shook his head and said, "No, let it be fate!" ”

Su Chen really couldn't start, if the question was an ancient text subject he had memorized, he would be able to answer with a high score; If it is an unfamiliar topic, then it is difficult for him to read these ancient books and articles in just three months, such as the anthology of Wei and Jin dynasties, the prose of the Tang Dynasty, etc., let alone understand it thoroughly.

Bai Susu didn't know these reasons, and thought that Su Chen was deliberately modest.

The two chatted for a while, and Bai Susu suddenly asked with a smile: "Qinqing, it doesn't seem to be the same as before, have you noticed?" ”

Su Chen was surprised: "It's different? What's the difference? ”

Bai Susu glanced at him, and then said: "She has become much gentler, and she often laughs there alone." ”

After Su Chen heard this, he also felt that this was indeed not like the previous Qinqing, and muttered, "It won't be...... Hurt your brain, right? Not at all! ”

Bai Susu shook her head and smiled: "Of course not, she seems to be ...... Forget it, maybe I'm too sensitive. ”

She didn't say it directly, there are some things, it's better not to talk about them in the open, Bai Susu can already see that her boudoir close friend Qin Jing also seems to like Su Chen, and Su Chen has also been moved by Qin Qin's sacrifice to save him these days, although they have not broken the relationship with each other, but Su Chen and Qin Jing obviously get along differently than before.

There are few quarrels when they meet every day, and they talk to each other more docilely.

Bai Susu sighed lightly, said goodbye, and turned around to go back to Baifu, that figure, in the moonlight, looked a little lonely and lonely.
