Under Xia Yusi's strong urging, Cheng Qi had to revise some of the chapters that had been completed: let Xiao Linzi suddenly use his mind and body, and lay a trap to seriously injure Saibei Mingmu Gaofeng.

"Why don't you kill him?" Xia Yusi read the revised manuscript and still had a lot of grievances.

"Because in the back, he will be dismantled in eight pieces in the back. Wouldn't it be boring to die in one go. Cheng Qi cautiously explained.

Xia Yusi blinked, and her long eyelashes seemed to tempt the sin; "But, have you read "Han Feizi"?"

"I've only seen a little bit of it, and I remember a few of the fables."

"In Western Xia there was a philosopher surnamed Ma, who was known as Han Feizi of the Pashtun ethnic group. He once worked as a tutor for a nobleman in the Xia Kingdom, and wrote a well-known book called "On the Emperor", in which he had an uncomfortable point of view: grace should be like a trickle of water, and revenge should be like a thunderbolt without mercy. ”

Xia Yusi looked at his cousin: "You are a novel here, and you are free to write whatever you want." But you still have to keep this sentence of Ma Fuzi in mind in the future, after all, whether it is officialdom or business, there is always not so much warmth. ”

Cheng Qi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know why his sister suddenly sighed so much: "I will ...... in the future You may not be an official. ”

"The family won't let you not be an official." Xia Yusi said with certainty: "The family background is there, and my two younger brothers are not successful." If you don't become an official, the sky will fall. ”

"Not really." Cheng Qi was very suspicious: "I just like to write some novels that are not in the stream, and I don't want to be an official or do this." If Abba and Auntie want me to be an official, why do you allow me to waste my energy on this matter? ”。

"Because the article is so famous." Xia Yusi said: "Fame, fame, fame and fortune, fame is before profit." You have a reputation for your articles and are easily remembered in officialdom. Whether it is a promotion or promotion, it is always easy for a person with a reputation to stand out. ”

After a pause, Xia Yusi said again: "In a few days, my father may take you to meet some friends in Wucheng County - don't be childish, learn like an adult." ”

Cheng Qi nodded, and before he could be moved, Xia Yusi said again: "However, your update can't be left behind, 10,000 words a day, I'm just staring at it here." ”

The next time Huang Yang came to visit, in addition to bringing the first pen - although it was not much, Cheng Qi still solemnly found a wooden box and put it up as a souvenir - and also brought some letters from readers.

Most of the readers of "Qiantang Wenhai" are teachers in various middle schools, as well as all kinds of literati in Hangzhou, although this kind of people have a common problem, that is, they despise mundane things, but they also have to praise "Smiling Proud Jianghu", thinking that this popular novel is very different from the common swordsman, strange and chaotic swords, and chivalrous novels with the theme of color hunting. One of the readers named "Jianghu Happy Life" also specially compared "Smiling Proud Jianghu" with popular martial arts novels in other newspapers with a large circulation in Hangzhou, thinking that although "Smiling Proud Jianghu" comes from a little-known newcomer author, it has opened up a new world of popular chivalrous novels, breaking through the previous or based on public case novels, or inseparable from the shackles of gods and monsters, it is a new novel that completely talks about people's hearts and human nature, and believes that this "Smiling Proud Jianghu" writes martial arts with swords and swords and no flesh and blood. There is a child's tenderness but not strong affection, completely jumping out of the previous chivalrous novels "reckless, murderous, robbing treasures, plundering women, and occupying mountains as kings" routine, although some words are immature, but only in terms of the above points, it already has the style of the great master of the founding sect. And, in the end, this reader, who did not hesitate to praise him, also compared the revenge road of Lin Ping's family in "Smiling Proud Jianghu" with the famous Western Xia playwright Sospia's top ten classical tragedies "Zhao's Orphan", Cheng Qi really blushed, and even wondered if this Jianghu happy student was the pen name of any friend.

"This Jianghu happy life is a well-known article critic, known as a book that has read more than one million, which book in the Chongwen Museum in Dahang City he has not read, after his comments on the article, either famous, or worthless. Judging by his evaluation of you, man, you are just around the corner. ”

Cheng Qi suppressed the joy in his heart: "I don't know who this senior is, it would be great if I could meet him." ”

"You're thinking too much about it. It has been three or four years since Jianghu Kuaisheng's predecessors debuted, but he usually only communicates with everyone with pen and ink, and no one knows what his identity is. It's just that judging from his full reading experience and writing style, he should be a cannibal who is not confused in his old age - perhaps with a decent professional identity, and reading newspaper reviews is just an amateur hobby. ”

The two friends were talking, and the manuscript madman Xia Yusi came over again: "Brother, Xiaoyang." Let's eat some fruit - now Ah Qi can be regarded as in the limelight, and Xiaoyang has also helped a lot. ”

Huang Yang thanked the beautiful big sister: "It's still Ah Qi's own writing is good, and the story he writes is fascinating - I don't know if everyone will see that Lin Pingzhi is not the protagonist later, I don't know how many people will be stunned." ”

"What? Kobayashi is not the protagonist? Xia Yusi was stunned. Suddenly, the willow eyebrows rose upside down again: "What's going on!" Explain it to me! ”

As she spoke, she grabbed Cheng Qi, who was about to escape, with a fierce momentum: "Don't run, what happened to my Xiaolinzi?!" ”

Cheng Qi struggled to escape from his cousin's life and death, and it took a lot of words to explain to her that the first person to appear may not be the protagonist, and it may just be a passerby.

"Hmph, it's actually that flamboyant Linghu boy, I don't like him at all." Xia Yu said stupidly: "There is no family ruined and people are killed, and the blood feud can also be the protagonist?" ”

Cheng Qi could only smile bitterly at his cousin's strange view of literature, but fortunately, Xia Yusi didn't come back completely to urge the draft: "Your brother-in-law came back today, and we will go to my house for dinner together in the evening." ”

Cheng Qi blinked; "Isn't this your home?"

"Stupid, I'm talking about my husband's family." Xia Yusi gave him a burst of chestnut: "Remember to help me persuade him, don't do the business of licking blood on the knife, and do something down-to-earth." ”

Cheng Qi touched his forehead: "This...... I said it didn't work. ”

Xia Yusi is also a dead horse as a live horse doctor: "It's always useful to talk more, everyone says, maybe you can change your mind." ”

Cheng Qi looked at his cousin and there seemed to be something wrong with his eyes - there was no usual banter, and he couldn't even see the radiance when urging the change, and it was as dim as ashes. I thought to myself, this may be the embodiment of real concern. After all, since they got married, they have been getting together less and leaving more, and now it is easy to get ahead, but they are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and it is sad for everyone to change.

"Then I...... Just give it a try. Cheng Qi didn't dare to make any package tickets: "My brother-in-law has ambitions all over the world, I am a small person with little knowledge, if he doesn't listen to me, I can't be the master." ”

"Persuade him, and perhaps he will be able to change his mind." Xia Yusi looked away, as if he secretly snorted: "If your mother is free at night, come along." ”

Cheng Qi should get off this errand, and after gossiping with Huang Yang again, he rushed back to the study to complete today's quota. In the evening, I went to Xia Yusi's husband's house with Zhu Rui.
