Chapter 120: The Mathematics of the Six Arts of a Gentleman

Seeing this, Zhou Caichen trembled with anger, and raised his leg to kick Yi'an to the ground. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Fortunately, Su Shichou won the first place in the end, and I was not hindered by your stupid behavior! After I go back, I must punish you well! Now, quickly apologize to Su Shichou!" Zhou Caichen said in a fierce voice.

Na Yi'an hurriedly crawled to Su Yi and knelt down, crying with a handful of snot and tears.

"Su Shichou! The villain should die, the villain should die! The villain should not secretly stumble on you, all the mistakes are the villain's fault! Just because the villain's childhood sweetheart loves Su Shichou, he has written several letters for you, but he can't get a reply at all, and he almost wants to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river, the villain really can't stand it, so he makes such a stupid move on impulse! Su Shichou, you have a lot, forgive the villain!"

Looking at this howling appearance of Ngee An, several partners who knew the inside story watched coldly.

Su Yi shook her head even more: Apologize, apologize, what's the point of smearing him by the way?

It is true that he rarely replies to other people's letters because of his busy military industry, but he did not expect that this could also be used as a talking point by the Lord and the faction.

But if you are entangled in this matter, it will definitely become more and more black, endlessly, and grab more handles for Zhou Caichen and the main and faction behind him, Su Yi will naturally be able to distinguish the priority of the topic.

"This big brother is serious, I have already learned the second realm of archery anyway, and it is the same with or without arrows, so I didn't blame you from the beginning. Su Yi said with a smile on her face, "This gentleman's meeting, no matter who plays any tricks on me, it can only be in vain, so you don't need to blame yourself." ”

Su Yi deliberately bit the word "yin trick" very hard, and glanced at Zhou Caichen like a finger.

Some smart people immediately heard Su Yi's voice, and remembered the scene when Zhou Caichen was subservient and tried his best to invite Su Yi to participate in the competition, and faintly guessed the antagonistic relationship between the two.

When these people looked at Zhou Caichen, they all had leaden faces and cold expressions.

Pierced by many cold sights, Zhou Caichen's heart trembled, and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, but he still forced a smile.

"Su Shiqi really has a large number of adults, and he really deserves to be admired by the people! I will definitely teach this dog slave a good lesson, and I will definitely give him an apology afterwards! In addition, the unhappiness caused by this incident to all the guests is the crime of lax discipline, and I will apologize to everyone below!"

After all, Zhou Caichen was really solemn to everyone.

There were a few old men with bad tempers who flicked their sleeves and snorted heavily, and a small number of people also watched coldly.

And most young people have not seen through the market here, and they are all ignorant.

All in all, Zhou Caichen put on such a low-voiced posture on the surface, and everyone had no sufficient evidence, and Su Yi did not suffer actual losses, so he could only expose the matter.

Xin Lao immediately became a peacemaker and stood up to preside over the situation.

"Okay, okay, everyone has a harmonious gathering, happiness is the most important, there is no need to make a mistake for the little slave's mistakes; this time, thanks to Su Shicai, the catch is quite rich, enough for everyone to taste a sumptuous whole fish feast! ”

Only then did everyone feel a little deflated, and they turned around and walked back to the inn.

On the way, Duanmu Zhong spat on Zhou Caichen's back.

"I'm sorry, a good gentleman will have more Xiaoxiao like you, and you use such a trick to frame Su Shicai, you really defeated the gentlemen's Yaxing!"

"A good person is not right, but he should be a smelly shell!" Wu Xia also scolded.

Zhou Caichen didn't know if he heard the scolding of the two, but he clenched his fists slightly.

The entourage behind him looked embarrassed.

"Fortunately, Su Shiqiao has already learned the second realm of archery, otherwise he would really step on the trap set by Zhou Caichen. Gu Xinglong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't relax, there will be a game in the afternoon, Zhou Caichen may not be able to make any stumbling blocks. Jiang You.

The faces of the friends were grim.

Su Yi frowned slightly, and thought in her heart: "Mathematics competitions shouldn't need to use tools, and most of the people who participate in this kind of competition will be older people, Zhou Caichen should have some difficult problems that I can't answer at my age, but ......"

Su Yi smiled indifferently and returned to the house with everyone.

In the place of the river, Zhou Caichen looked at the slowly flowing river and let out a long breath.

No one in the entourage behind him dared to speak.

But Ding Ren didn't know Zhou Caichen's true identity, but he was open-mouthed.

"Gongzi Zhou, didn't you say before that you would definitely let Su Yi go abroad......

Zhou Caichen glared, and Ding Ren immediately swallowed back the next words, but he kept muttering in his heart.

"What, I swore before that I would definitely make Su Yi look foreign, and I also contributed money and efforts, so I almost didn't lose my face, it's not that I can't trap Su Yi's ......"

Zhou Caichen looked at the river, was silent for a long time, and only sneered after a long time.

"Fortunately, I kept my hand in everything and never pushed myself to a dead end. In the next math competition, you are optimistic, as long as Su Yi falls into the water, he will definitely die! And this math competition has no place for him to be opportunistic...... Su Yi, today, see how I can erase your name from the Bingfeng Continent!"

The attendants whispered applause.

"Hehe, it's finally time to get serious, Su Yi, my brother-in-law's heartless revenge, I want you to repay it with your life!" Ding Ren secretly clenched his fists.

In the distance, the middle-aged man with the moon scar looked at Su Yi's departing back, nodded slightly, and a ray of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

"My lord, I have heard all kinds of rumors about Su Shichou before, and I still doubt in my heart whether it is a bit exaggerated; One of the remaining attendants said.

"Well, I finally understand why the Lady of the House admires this son so much. ”

After the middle-aged Moon Scar finished speaking, a smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and he turned around and walked towards the inn, as if nothing happened.

The retinue behind him immediately followed.

The whole fish banquet at noon can be described as the most exquisite banquet Su Yi has ever seen in her life.

In the inn, more than 50 guys transferred from the county showed their strengths, and thousands of fresh fish were cooked into various famous dishes in the south of the Yangtze River, and they were served to the wine table one after another.

Colourful dishes are a feast for the eyes, the hall is filled with fresh aromas, guests are appetizing, and everyone is feasting and talking.

During the banquet, what everyone talked about the most was Su Yi's amazing performance in the archery competition.

When talking about the vision of the second realm of archery, several people were even so excited that they danced, saying that Su Yi was able to learn the second realm of archery at a young age, which was simply a symbol of a miracle.

A few people at the adjacent table also let go of their scruples and talked freely with Su Yi, and the many archery experiences they said made Su Yi very useful.

At this point, a few tables of people started talking about last night's race war.

"You don't know, I was at the feet of the giant of Su Mitian, and when his punch hit the totem on the other side, it almost blinded me. ”

"You're so unlucky, so close, you definitely didn't notice the scene of Su Mitian holding a three-thousand-zhang dragon pattern pen and writing between heaven and earth, it's spectacular!"

"Yes, that song "Dragon City Flying General", but it directly summoned the phantom of the Great Wall, destroyed all the water villages on the north bank, and promoted the sage Li Guang to Yuanrong, which can be described as magical. ”

"I heard that the Confucian general Jiang Ruzi also appraised this poem as a 'divine product,' and I very much agree with it in my heart! The spirit of this poem may only be compared with Tao Yuanming's 'Drinking,' Cao Cao's 'Watching the Sea,' and Sima Xiangru's 'Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix.' Someone clapped his hands and praised.

"Well, when I went out in the morning, I heard children in the streets and alleys chanting: Qin Shi Mingyue Han Shi Guan...... It can be seen that the influence of this "Dragon City Flying General" is extensive. ”

"That's natural, my family's ethnology in Wu County has to list Su Shichou's poem as a must-read poem. ”

"Haha, the literary style and artistic conception of this poem naturally need not be said, it will be sung through the ages, but the barbarians who don't know the Chinese characters will have any expressions when they think of this poem?"

"I'm afraid I'll chew through the gum blood!"

Everyone burst into laughter, and their hearts were racing with joy.

"In any case, it is a great thing for us that all the water villages in Jiangbei have collapsed and the barbarian Great Khan has been crushed as a result; Su Shitiao, who was able to write "Dragon City Flying General", is undoubtedly a great hero of the human race! Isn't it just to kill more barbarians and serve the country by learning archery? ”

Gentlemen said yes one after another.

"You are also a big hero in my heart and Sister Su's hearts!" Liu Xinzhao whispered.

The corners of Su Yi's mouth twitched and she didn't say anything.

At one o'clock, as soon as the whole fish feast ended, everyone went to the river embankment again to gather.

The bows and arrows of the archery competition were stacked on one side of the platform, and in the afternoon there was a math competition.

The mathematics of the six arts of a gentleman is also a skill that every gentleman needs to learn.

Mathematics was first applied to commerce and trade, and then to a wide range of military applications, a qualified general must know how to count money, food, consumption, but also know how to count troops, count days, calculate distance...... It can be said that arithmetic is one of the first talents that a general needs to have, if he doesn't even know arithmetic, how to govern the army and lead the army?

Spectators stayed on the embankment, while contestants went to the platform to assemble.

Because archery requires arm strength and is physically demanding, math is easier to learn and master, so there are almost twice as many participants in math competitions as in archery competitions.

Su Yi took a cursory look and saw that there were no less than 100 people on the platform, most of them were older people, and there were even a few old people who were over half a hundred years old.

There was no need to look closely, Su Yi immediately understood: these old men must be the biggest competitors in this math competition!

In addition to Su Yi, who was the youngest, there were very few young people in the audience, and Jiang You and Wu Xia were also among them.

Jiang You, the head of the county examination last year, was proficient in mathematics, and served as the secretary of the Privy Council as a martial artist, in charge of the finances of the Privy Council, while Wu Xia was a businessman and was proficient in mathematics. (To be continued.) )
