Chapter 250 Gentleman Sword

After a snowstorm, the clear sea returned to calm.

On the blue sea, a few seagulls flew by, making crisp calls.

The surviving merchant ship followed the official ship, and after about 20 days of recovery, a lot of psychological shadows have disappeared. At this time, some people walked out of the cabin, facing the morning sea breeze, and feeling the rare comfortable weather.

Although this is comfortable, it is only relatively speaking. In winter, even the gentle wind brings chills.

Watching a few businessmen pass by him, coughing continuously, it made Shao Sisen's throat itch, and he tried hard to suppress his disgust and quicken his pace.

Many people who were rescued in the sea snake incident were assigned to the official ship. Shao Sisen took the opportunity to change the ship, in order to avoid Su Ziji, so as not to look up and down every day, and feel embarrassed.

But after changing boats, it was discovered that some of the people on the same boat were rescued from the sea. Although the accompanying military doctor boiled the medicine and distributed it to everyone, they were still injured after being soaked in the sea for so long in winter. Feeling frightened, thinking about nothing, how could it be so easy?

For more than ten days, nearly twenty days, as soon as Shao Sisen arrived on the boat, he could always hear suppressed coughing, so he couldn't stay on the boat where he lived, and always used excuses to find Su Ziji, so as to stay away from this group of sick people.

I don't know if it's because the imperial envoy is biased, and there are also people on the ship, but the people on the Suzi ship are all recovering well, and feel depressed every time they go there.

It was the same today, Shao Sisen hurriedly ate breakfast and arrived at the deck of Su Ziji's ship.

In the distance was the surging ocean. On the deck, two young men who had changed their clothes were holding swords.

There are tables and chairs on the side of the deck, tea and snacks are placed, and there is a table with pens, ink, paper and inkstones and some manuscripts.

A few soldiers were fine, leaning not far away, talking, laughing, and pointing, obviously very interested in the fight between the two.

The upper hand in the arena was Qin Mao, who was more than half healed from his injuries. He was dressed in gray bunt, and the long sword in his hand was unremarkable, but when he made moves, he could make the long sword exude a sharp sword intent.

The black-clothed boy who reluctantly fought against him was none other than Su Ziji.

If Shao Sisen hadn't known Su Ziji, he wouldn't have believed that this sassy young man was actually the No. [-] imperial scholar in literary talent.

"Brother Su Xian, I accept it." At this moment, the two in the field clearly decided the winner.

Qin Mao directly made a killing move, the tip of the sword touched Su Ziji's chest, and Su Ziji's sword was also pointed at Qin Mao, but it was not the point.

Qin Mao then put away his sword, and because he was in a good mood, he even held a sword flower, and said to Su Ziji with a smile: "Brother Su Xian, you don't have to be discouraged, your sword skills are already very good, but this is what scholars use after all. Weapons and tricks are not the killing techniques of real battlefield fighting."

The second half of the sentence that I didn't say is that you are not wronged if you lose to me.

"[Ziqing Free Fu] Level 6 (35/6000)"

Su Ziji smiled, Qin Mao's martial arts are not bad, but compared with the others, they are still a lot worse, but he is a scholar, and if he wants to turn his swordsmanship and martial arts from dark to bright, there must be a process and source. The sword manual is a prop to cover up, and now it is the practice of fighting with Qin Mao.

And the Junzi Sword is indeed not a killing technique.

Just as he was about to speak, someone interrupted first: "Brother Su Xian is a student of the imperial court, and he will also take the imperial examination route in the future, so there is no need to go to the battle in person."

These words made the two people in the field do not know how to answer the conversation.

The scene suddenly turned cold.

As soon as Shao Sisen said this, he found that the atmosphere had cooled down, and he was also a little annoyed.

On the [-]th day on the boat, even though Shao Sisen changed boats, he had to come here often, the benefits were not reaped, and his life was more uncomfortable than Su Ziji.

On the other hand, Su Ziji's relationship with Qin Mao quickly warmed up, and as time went by, Qin Mao still only treated him with superficial courtesy, but actually turned a blind eye to him.

This is nothing at all, but thinking about it, the two imperial envoys, and even the soldiers on board, treat Su Ziji differently, which makes it a bit uncomfortable.

The same Taixue was introduced to the Ministry of War, and there were two different treatments, so it was hard for Shao Sisen not to feel a little emotional.

But it was the same thing to think about it, but it felt a bit wrong to say it. Shao Sisen was annoyed, so he wanted to make up for the blurted words.

As a result, at this time, the imperial envoy boat came close to this boat, and a soldier jumped over and said to Su Ziji, "Young Master Su, Master Shangshu wants to see you."

Seeing Shao Sisen again, he said: "It turns out that Mr. Shao is also here, so there is no need to go on a trip. Master Shangshu also mentioned you, so please go there together."

"Please allow me to change my clothes later." Su Ziji's clothes were already soaked in sweat because of fighting Qin Mao. Neither his clothes nor his appearance at this time were suitable for meeting the imperial envoy.

The soldier nodded and smiled: "Young master, go quickly, the younger one will just wait here."

They are very familiar at first glance.

Su Ziji turned around and entered the cabin.

On the other hand, Shao Sisen, since he had just changed his clothes and was on Su Ziji's boat, he didn't go back and forth. He was a little awkward standing still while waiting, and he walked to the table with the pen, ink, paper and inkstone unknowingly.

The table was full of manuscripts, and I took one and read it. After reading only two lines, I was attracted.

"Although the content is superficial, the words are solid. They are the main points and experience of the examination for talents. Looking at the handwriting, could it be written by Su Ziji?"

This content is written in a simple and capable manner, and it is not an exaggeration to say that every word is pearls.

Putting down this one, Shao Sisen picked up a few more and looked at it. It turned out that it was related to Juren's test points and experience, and it was also concise and incisive.

"This is a rare experience!"

Although Shao Sisen had never taken the Juren examination, he was a student in the upper house, and he already had an equivalent literary talent and knowledge, so he could directly participate in the examination.

There was more than one Jinshi in the family, how could Shao Sisen fail to see how practical and ingenious this summary of experience was?
Even if the talent is mediocre, as long as you work hard enough, don't slack off, and learn from this experience, no one dares to say that you will be a scholar.

"Could it be that Su Ziji wrote this for his descendants?" Shao Sisen put down the manuscript and didn't continue to read it. Since this thing is too precious, even he himself has a lot of benefits, and he feels suddenly enlightened. If he continues to read, there is always a feeling of The feeling of taking advantage, and because of this, the mood is quite complicated.

This kind of experience has always been summed up, after being awarded a Jinshi and becoming an official, I only do it when I have nothing to do. Su Ziji is only very old, and he is not yet 17 years old!
Such a person actually started to worry about future generations?

When Su Ziji changed into a cotton robe and came out, Shao Sisen asked him face to face: "Brother Su Xian, I have just read these, and I think every word is really ingenious. Could it be that you have already started to make plans for your children and grandchildren?"

"There are reasons for this, but not all of them." Su Ziji smiled: "Some of my former friends still need to take the examination of scholar, and some need to prepare for the examination of juren. Some content is written for these friends. .”
