I was so hungry that day, the two of them were not polite, so they ate first.

After waiting until I was half-filled, I remembered that it was time to have some wine and celebrate today's debate.

A cup of belly for one person, slightly spicy, and then sweet.

Yang Congyi had to call it "good wine". Although this wine can not be compared with all kinds of liquor in later generations, it is also rare in the Song Dynasty, and it is not easy to drink, a pot of good wine like this should cost hundreds of yuan, and the price of a load of grain is placed there, where can it be cheaper to make wine.

Tang Xun is not good at drinking, and after drinking three cups, he resolutely refuses to drink, and his face is red and red after a while.

Yang Congyi can drink half a catty of liquor, this kind of bamboo leaf green degree is not high, a pot is less than half a catty, even if you drink it all, it is no big deal, but thinking that there will be a class tomorrow, I only drank half a pot.

When I came out after eating, it was already very dark, and it was late autumn in October, and a cold wind was blowing, and it was still a little cold.

Yang Congyi saw that Tang Xun began to sway when he walked, and knew that he should be drunk, and if he was not good at drinking, he would get drunk as soon as he touched it.

"Brother Tang, are you okay?" Although it is not far to go back, it will take two quarters of an hour, and if he is too drunk to walk, it will be troublesome to go back.

Tang Xun swayed and said as he walked: "It's okay, I'm not drunk." ”

Hearing this, Yang Congyi smiled bitterly, anyone who drinks and says that he is drunk must not be drunk, and if he says that he is not drunk, then he must be drunk, and he is not drunk.

He didn't say a word, grabbed Tang Xun's arm, held his shoulder and left. Don't care if Tang Xun says "no", don't listen to drunk words, otherwise they won't be able to go back for an hour.

Not long after walking, Yang Congyi felt that his hands were getting heavier and heavier, basically Tang Xun's legs were already weak, and he couldn't stand firm at all. At this point, there was no other way but to carry him back, just hoping not to vomit him.

Fortunately, it was dark, otherwise it would not be nice to walk on the street with people on your back.

When he returned to the Wuxue Zhai House, he put Tang Xun on the bed, and as soon as he took off his shoes, he covered him with a quilt, and when the lamp was lit, he was already asleep.

If you go out in the future, you can't drink with Tang Xun anymore, it's trouble to drink after drinking, Yang Congyi looked at him and thought to himself.

He called for cold water to wash up, it was still early, and it didn't arrive for a day, so he turned on the light and read a book for a while.

"Wei Xuanzi" this military book, he likes it very much, it is very useful to him at present, it can also be said to be useful for low, middle and high and generals, they can learn from it, and they can use it immediately, it is exactly what he needs, from low-level military attachés to middle-level military attachés, this book can give him great help, and other military books are not useful for martial arts students, and the west and east at the strategic level should be studied and considered by the emperor and the members of the court.

These days, he is very attentive to studying this art of war, and he is full of hope that he can succeed in his studies, and in the future, he will rely on this military book to climb to the position of commander. If you don't have a background, you have to work hard, study hard to learn knowledge, and you have to work hard to perform in the army. This is the revelation we have received from today's debate on Taixue.

Most of the students are children with a low background, the entrance examination is strict, and the usual management will not be relaxed, and there will rarely be a situation of empty student registration, after all, as long as the performance is good, promoted to the upper house, the examination is excellent, and the official is directly awarded, and the middle can directly participate in the palace examination, even the inferior can also be exempted from the state examination, and directly participate in the provincial examination, and the treatment is good. Once admitted, no one will give up easily, and if you work harder, you will have the opportunity to become an official.

Although martial arts is not as good as Taixue, but the basic system is not much different from Taixue, as long as the performance is good, the public and private examinations are excellent, two or three years can be directly awarded officials, this is also a good way to enter the office, that is, the road is a little narrow, the future is far less than too far from the great, so people with lofty ideals, can enter Taixue, can enter various private academies, will not think about entering martial arts, over time, martial arts will become a decoration, without good seedlings, naturally there can be no towering trees, out of the pillars of the material.

I kept reading until about the second watch, and I was a little tired, so Yang Congyi put down the military book and rested.

Before going to bed, I glanced at Tang Xun, and saw that the kid was sleeping quite peacefully, and he couldn't move.

Since the next day, I have resumed my normal study life, practicing martial arts for an hour or two in the morning, and waiting until dawn to see the handwriting on the book, I will put down my weapon and enter the martial arts hall to read.

Tang Xun didn't say a word about getting drunk that night, and of course Yang Congyi wouldn't mention it, after all, it was a very embarrassing thing.

The life of martial arts, day after day, except for classes, is to practice martial arts, dull, without any waves.

Ordinary days always pass quickly, and before you know it, it will be the cold winter wax moon.

A heavy snowfall, covered in snow.

On this day, he was in class by the fire in the stone room, and after talking about one of the questions in "Li Jing Asks Right", Huang Chen, a doctor of martial arts, asked the martial arts students to review and comprehend by themselves, and then memorize the content of today's study, while he himself picked up a book and read it next to him.

Waiting for Yang Congyi to finish memorizing the content of the study, he suddenly heard Huang Chen say: "The Seven Books of Martial Arts will be completed immediately, you need to study independently in the future, I will come five times a month to answer your questions, if there is anything you want to ask, while I am here every day, I can ask questions at any time." ”

What questions can you have, there are only three or five people who are still studying seriously, and only Yang Congyi is the only one who really wants to learn the art of war and practical application to obtain combat merits, and the others are just trying to mix up an official and a half-position, including Tang Xun, who has learned very well.

Therefore, no one questioned, Huang Chen was also very helpless, martial arts is just like this, and now it is already very good to have three or five people learning, what else can you ask for.

"Yang Congyi, you are the most diligent reader, you should have great ambitions, but if you want to achieve all the achievements, it is far from enough to only read the seven books of martial arts, and after you finish reading the martial arts classics, you should look at other books, the works of the sages and sages, you should have to dabble in them, after all, the Great Song Dynasty is ruled by literati, and you must expand your horizons, otherwise it will be difficult to make a difference." Huang Chen named Yang Congyi, he was very optimistic about this student who was a fast learner and worked hard, so as not to make the road narrow, so he reminded him, as for the others, it can be seen that they don't have much ambition, so they don't mention it.

Yang Congyi thanked him: "Thank you, sir, for your teachings, students should keep it in mind." ”

Huang Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Recently, there is a book circulating among the Tai students, I have never seen it before, I also borrowed it to read it, and found it very interesting, many of the accounts in it are practical for generals to lead the army to fight, you can also take a look." ”

Yang Congyi asked: "I don't know what Mr. said, what kind of book is it?" "Can the books that students read be related to war? He didn't quite believe it, few literati wanted to fight.

Huang Chen closed the book, faced Yang Congyi with the book cover, and replied: "Mengxi Pen Talk". This book is an essay written by Shen Kuo, a jinshi in the reign of Renzong, in his later years, which contains a large number of complex contents, describing many applicable techniques, which can be borrowed from marching and fighting, and can be used properly to win by surprise. ”

Yang Congyi was shocked, how could Taixue become popular with this kind of book, I remember that two months ago, they didn't even know about the needle plate, could it be that they were stimulated?

Then he replied, "Thank you, sir, I will definitely buy it when I have time and study it carefully." ”

"Alright, that's all for today's lesson. Class. After speaking, Huang Chen got up.

The martial arts students stood up and saluted and thanked, "Mr. Xie." ”

Huang Chen turned around and walked out of the stone room and left them.

"Brother Yang, haven't you read the "Dream Creek Writings" that Mr. Fang just said?" Tang Xun sat by the fire and did not get up.

Yang Congyi smiled: "I have read it before, but I have only seen it cursoly, and I know what it says, but I have to use the technology recorded in the book, I need to buy a book, and do it according to the description, such as the needle plate, I know what it does, but I can't remember the method, I can't do it." You still need to buy it to take a good look. ”

The other martial arts students went back as soon as they got out of class, there was a stove in their dormitory, go back to light a fire, and go to the bed, in this cold winter, I don't know how comfortable it is.

Tang Xun smiled and said: "Brother Yang, was it that in the last debate, you used this needle plate technique and watertight cabin method to stump them and make them lose face, so they came to this "Mengxi Pen Talk" to take a look?" ”

Yang Congyi said: "It's possible, the students have always been arrogant and arrogant, and their eyes are above the top, and they did suffer a loss last time they debated with us." I remember that one of them is called Shen Jin, who is the same as the author of this book, and lives not far away, so I guess he went back to find this book, after all, they don't understand the techniques I said, and they lose face, so they always want to see if I am making it up and deceiving them. ”

Tang Xun said: "Mr. has recommended this book, it seems that this book should not be bad, I want to find it." ”

Yang Congyi said: "This book is not bad, in my opinion, this book is a masterpiece, but it has nothing to do with the imperial examination, and no one pays attention to it." If you go out another day, buy me a copy too, and I'll study it well. ”

Tang Xun said: "You are the eldest daughter of Huanghua, you can't go out by yourself?" ”

Yang Congyi looked embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Brother Tang, you are raising the bar, you know me, I am too lazy to go out, anyway, you always have to go out, so take it by the way." ”

Tang Xun glanced at him and said, "Okay, then I'll help you again." ”

Yang Congyi cheekily thanked him, and then continued to read.

After a day off, Tang Xun finished practicing, went out early in the morning, and returned in the afternoon.

As soon as he came back, he complained to Yang Congyi: "It's a big Lin'an, and there is no copy of "Mengxi Writings" in the bookstore, not only that, but I haven't even heard of it. ”

Yang Congyi said: "That is if you didn't buy it?" ”

Tang Xun said angrily: "There are no bookstores, where can I buy them?" I don't know where they got them. ”

Yang Congyi thought for a while and said: "Brother Tang is fortunate, since Lin'an can't buy it, wait for the Spring Festival holiday, let's go to Zhenjiang Mansion to see, Shen Gong spent his later years in Zhenjiang, he is a scholar and first, and he is also a celebrity in the local area, I want to come to this book is also printed locally in Zhenjiang, and it has not been circulated." ”

Tang Xun thought about it, "Mengxi Writings" is just an essay, not a scientific research classic, of course, it will not be circulated around, so I can only wait for the holiday to go to Zhenjiang Mansion to have a look.
