Su Mingzhe took Xiaoye's four daughters on a merchant ship and sailed upstream.
Because it was a southeasterly wind coming ashore, the river was rough.
The merchant ship set sail, its speed was no less than that of the fast horses on the embankment.
In just three days, the five people had arrived at the Liujing River from Suzhou.
When the merchant ship docked at the dock, it was getting late.
On the Liujing River, many painting boats have started operating.
Regardless of the cold night wind, the young ladies on the boat were all wearing silk skirts as thin as cicada wings. They stretched out their green fingers and waved to the passing boats, or smiled softly with their lips covered.
The beauty of the picture made Su Mingzhe very moved when he saw it.
At some point, Xiaoye came to Su Mingzhe and said with a hint of persuasion:
"Sir, would you like to stop one and go up and take a look?"
Because Xiaoye only had part of Ye Qingmei's memory, he could barely be considered a 'traveler'. Seeing such beautiful scenery, purely playful thoughts took over, and there were no 'dirty thoughts' in his mind.
"Forget it."
Su Mingzhe thought for a while and shook his head gently.
Seeing Xiaoye's puzzled look, he pointed to the river and asked with a smile:
"Do you know what the name of this river is?"
Xiaoye said depressedly: "I have never been to Kyoto, how do I know what this river is called?"
"Sir, I know the name of this river."
After hearing this, Xiaocao next to him quickly raised his hand and replied:
"Sister Xiaoye, this river is called the Liujing River. There is a poem that says: Ten miles of light smoke fills the sky with stars, and the boat is moored and the crystals are all over the sky. I have no sleep at night. Autumn, winter, and spring are not always here, but I am still a drunken stranger in my dreams."
"'Autumn, winter and spring are always there when I don't see them, but I am still a drunk stranger in my dreams.' This poem really fits the situation."
After Su Mingzhe heard this poem, he looked at the young ladies in cool clothes on the boat and couldn't help but nodded: It is true that spring is here all year round.
】
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have the idea of finding a painting boat and going on it for some fun.
but……
Su Mingzhe sighed softly and said helplessly:
"It's just the name 'Flowing Crystal River', which is a bit unseemly."
"Is the name inappropriate?"
The four maids all looked surprised.
Liujing River, what a nice name it is?
What's wrong with this?
Xiaoye is a science and engineering girl who doesn’t understand homophones.
Xiaojin and Xiaocao were both palace maids in the Northern Qi and Nanqing palaces respectively, so they didn't understand this knowledge even more.
Only Xiaoxue was the daughter of a prison officer. She had studied the Four Books and Five Classics since she was in elementary school, and later lived in the Jiaofang Division. Although she was unwilling to accept guests and was tortured to death, she did understand some things about men and women.
After thinking for a moment, Xiaoxue's cheeks turned red with embarrassment, she lowered her head and spat lightly:
"Sir, why are you so nasty?"
"What's wrong with me?"
Su Mingzhe shrugged innocently and defended:
"The name of this river is inherently ambiguous. How can you blame me for thinking wrongly?"
Xiaoye, Xiaojin and Xiaocao still don't understand what's wrong with the 'Liujing River'.
The three girls all pulled Xiaoxue and kept asking questions.
As a woman, Xiaoxue was not willing to explain the homophonic meaning of "liquid crystal river". She was anxious when asked, so she simply stamped her feet and went back to the cabin to rest.
This night was speechless.
On the next day, the merchant ship went through the formalities at Yousi Yamen.
Su Mingzhe and his four maids also went through the "entry formalities". They took out their own route guide and had it stamped by the Kyoto Yamen, and then they were able to enter the city.
It must be said that the degree of strict identity and household registration checks in ancient times far exceeded the imagination of later generations.
The five people entered the city gate and walked not far before they were blocked by a man wearing a bamboo hat and a black cloak.
"Ada?"
Xiaocao, who was walking in front, was the first to recognize this man. He was the temple envoy Ada sent by Su Mingzhe to Nanqing to 'collect rent'.
"Owner."
Ah Da ignored Xiaocao's greeting and came directly to Su Mingzhe, stood still and bowed:
"Your residence in Kyoto City has been arranged."
"Lead the way."
Su Mingzhe is a man who saves trouble and never looks for trouble.
Ah Da, Ah Er, and Ah San were all in Kyoto City. If Su Mingzhe needed anything, he would send a message in advance so that they could get it done as early as possible.
Not long after, a few people came to a high-gate courtyard. A stone tablet was erected at the door, with the words "Su Zhai" written on it.
On the plaque at the door, there are three big characters written "Three Provinces Residence".
Three Provincial Residences are three words written by Su Mingzhe in the bedroom of the museum.
I didn’t expect that Ada would use it here.
Several people came to the door. Ah Er and Ah San received the message and opened the door to greet them.
Su Mingzhe asked Xiaoye, the 'housekeeper', to take over the command of Ah Da, Ah Er and Ah San and arrange their residences. After taking a casual look around, he went out again and went to the City Guards Yamen to complete the martial arts registration procedures. went.
There are three requirements for obtaining a martial arts examination entry certificate:
First, under the age of twenty-five.
Second, martial arts cultivation must be above level five.
Third, there are letters of recommendation written by local wealthy families.
Su Mingzhe naturally meets all three conditions.
When registering information earlier, everything was fine.
Although when Su Mingzhe said that his martial arts cultivation level was at the ninth level, the other party was a little surprised, but he still registered seriously.
According to the rules, martial arts cultivation of seventh-grade and below are tested by several deputy commanders of the city guard who have eighth-grade martial arts cultivation.
As for the martial arts cultivation of the eighth and ninth grades, they need to be tested by Ye Wan, the commander of the city guard.
Ye Wan, the eldest son of Ye Zhong, the commander of the city's army, and the great nephew of the four great masters Ye Liuyun, has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Under the age of thirty, he has the strength of the ninth level. He is known as the most promising person in Nanqing to break through to the level of the great master. One of the ninth-level masters.
Su Mingzhe was standing in the martial arts training ground, waiting for Ye Wan to come and test his martial arts skills, when a young lady in red robe jumped out of the hall:
"Boy, considering how young you are, you are bragging. How can you possibly have the strength to reach the ninth level?"
Su Mingzhe was stunned for a moment and recognized this girl. She was Ye Ling'er, the best friend of the heroine Lin Wan'er in the TV series "Celebrating More Than Years". He couldn't help but smile softly and said:
"Girl, won't you know if I am at the ninth level when Commander Ye comes to test it?"
"Bah, I think you're just here to gain fame!"
Although Ye Linger is a girl, she is reckless.
The martial arts competition is approaching recently, and many candidates who have come to register for the competition, in order to expand their reputation, have reported their martial arts level high when registering, so as to get a chance to fight against the commander of the city guard.
Because the martial arts exams are to gather talents for the country, even though Ye Wan has a bad temper, he cannot harm these exams.
After a few days, when Ye Wan returned home, he often complained to his family that he, the commander of the city guard, was almost becoming a 'score scorer'.
Like Ye Wan, Ye Ling'er was also a martial arts fanatic. As soon as he heard his brother's complaints, he immediately became interested and wanted to test the strength of Juzi in his brother's place.
As soon as Ye Ling'er arrived today, she heard Su Mingzhe declare that he was at the ninth level of martial arts cultivation, and she naturally became interested.
He saw her fly up with a palm and slam it towards Su Mingzhe's face.
"Is this Liuyun Sanshou?"
Su Mingzhe saw that the palm wind had arrived before the person arrived, and he couldn't help but nodded.
This Liuyun Sanshou is somewhat similar to the Piping Wind Palm. They are both top-grade real skills that release true energy, are both strong and soft, and combine hardness and softness.
It's a pity that Ye Ling'er's strength is mediocre, barely at the sixth or seventh level. The wind from her palm couldn't even lift the corners of Su Mingzhe's clothes.
Therefore, facing Ye Ling'er's palm, Su Mingzhe didn't even think about avoiding it. He just smiled slightly and said:
"Little girl, let Commander Ye come out for a moment."
Ye Ling'er didn't expect that the palm she used to expend 50% of her true energy would be completely ignored. She immediately became angry and stepped forward, changing her palms and continuing to attack.
This time, Ye Ling'er no longer used the 'Liuyun Sanshou' that she had just learned, but instead used the 'Coffin Coffin Palm' that she had already mastered.
Compared with the Liuyun Sanshou, which is both hard and soft, the Coffin Palm is strong and dangerous when opened and closed.
With Ye Ling'er's current strength, a palm strike could create a few cracks in a three-inch-thick stone tablet.
Now, Ye Ling'er launched a powerful attack, and almost instantly, her palm slapped Su Mingzhe on the chest:
"Look at the palm!"
"Show mercy!"
A military general in his thirties walked out of the hall. Seeing Ye Ling'er's palm hit Su Mingzhe's chest, he looked frightened and screamed quickly.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"
Su Mingzhe laughed at the general, but he still had no defense at all against Ye Ling'er's palm.
And Ye Ling'er also found that the coffin-cracking palm she struck with all her strength was as if it was hitting cotton, it was soft and there was no sense of force anywhere.
At this time, Ye Linger also realized that there was a huge gap between herself and Su Mingzhe.
However, she wanted to retreat at this time, but it was already too late.
A suction force appeared out of thin air on Su Mingzhe's chest, attracting Ye Ling'er's little hand, making her attempt to pull back her palm become a delusion.
Fortunately, this suction is only temporary.
Ye Ling'er panicked for a moment, then pulled her palm back with another violent tug.
"Thank you, Brother Su, for your noble hand!"
Ye Wan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his little sister was okay.
If my little sister is injured here, I will feel guilty, and my mother-in-law will definitely nag her endlessly.
"It doesn't matter, if you can't even control your true energy freely, you can't be called the ninth grade."
When Su Mingzhe saw the rightful owner appearing, he cupped his hands and said with a smile:
"Commander Ye, please enlighten me!"
"Brother Su, please!"
Ye Wan saw that Su Mingzhe was so straightforward and neat. He was also a martial arts fanatic. He was delighted to see Su Mingzhe, so he immediately took action and slapped Su Mingzhe head-on.
"What a Liuyun Sanshou!"
Su Mingzhe couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Ye Wan's move.
Unexpectedly, this guy Ye Wan is still a bit petty.
Just now, Ye Ling'er used Liuyun Sanshou, but she didn't even dodge.
Maybe it made this guy Ye Wan angry.
Now Ye Wan's move was exactly the same as Ye Ling'er's move. He was obviously standing up for Ye Ling'er and fighting for his own martial arts Liuyun Sanshou.
Su Mingzhe originally thought that if he continued not to evade, Ye Wan would be angry to death.
However, thinking that I was new here, if I didn't want to get into trouble, it was best to keep a low profile.
With his mind made up, Su Mingzhe waited for the palm wind to come to him, then he gently turned his palms and directly used the move "Dou Zhuan Xing Shi Shi" to return the Liuyun Sanshou hit by Ye Wan.
"What kind of martial arts is this?"
Ye Wan was also startled by the palm wind that Su Mingzhe returned and quickly stopped the attack.
He had also heard from his uncle before that there was a martial arts truth of "four taels can move a thousand catties" and "strengthen with strength".
However, this kind of martial arts truth was just something he could hear, and he had never seen it before.
Today, Su Mingzhe showed off his skills and made Ye Wan stare straight at him.
Su Mingzhe also saw the glint in Ye Wan's eyes, but he just smiled lightly:
"My kung fu is just a little trick to leverage my strength, not worth mentioning."
Ye Wan, like Ye Ling'er, is both a martial arts fanatic. When he saw novel martial arts, he immediately became fascinated:
"Since Brother Su refuses to talk, let's compete again!"
