My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 1097

[Chapter 1065 You are useful]

Next, Jing Zhe and Pei Yunxi spent another two sweet days in the carriage, talking and laughing, and their relationship took another step forward.

Originally they thought they would be able to reach Jiangling in five days, but Jing Zhe and Pei Yunxi were as inseparable as newlyweds. They spent an extra day on the road and arrived outside Jiangling in the early morning of the seventh day.

At this time, March has already entered. Whether it is Jingzhou or Ruzhou and other northern cities, although there are already signs of spring, the air is still cold. But when we reach the border of Jiangling, we can clearly feel that there is a feeling of hot flashes in the air. .

The city wall of Jiangling is different from the tall city walls in the north. The city wall here is not too high, but the construction is particularly exquisite. There are plaques hanging on the attic of each city wall with poems engraved on them. However, because the distance is too far, the handwriting is too small. The reason is not clear.

There is a Jiangling plaque hanging above the main city wall. The word “Jiangling” is written in a grand and majestic way. It is comparable to the various new era fonts written by Jing Zhehui. It can be seen that the skill of the person who writes has already reached the pinnacle. the point.

Before entering the city gate, a literary and artistic wind hit us.

Jiangling has been prosperous since ancient times, and literati have emerged in large numbers. This is why Emperor An wanted Jing Zhe to come to Jiangling as his first stop. Because there are too many literati, the folk customs here are more open. It is more difficult to open a newspaper branch here, but Jing Zhe Not afraid, he likes to do challenging work best.

The people entering and exiting the city gate were wearing much thinner clothes than they were. The breath of spring hit their faces. Jing Zhe jumped out of the carriage first, smiled and extended his hand to Pei Yunxi: “Fourth sister, come down!”

Pei Yunxi stuck her head out to take a look. He glanced at Jiangling City Wall and rolled his eyes, a little complicated: “We’re here so soon?”

There was a lot of reluctance in his words.

Seeing no one around, Jing Zhe quietly leaned forward and said with a smile: “Fourth sister, don’t worry, you and the third sister are the only ones in the city anyway, and the third sister is not a clingy person, I believe we have plenty of time to be alone together.” , Hehe, by then, the fourth sister’s menstrual period will also be gone…”

At this point, Jing Zhe smiled evilly, and Pei Yunxi blushed and rolled her eyes at him, refusing to get out of the car, but lowered the curtain and got back into the car. inside.

Sitting alone in the car, Pei Yunxi said to herself: “Do you think the third sister is the only one in Jiangling? Then you will know whether you have time to accompany me, otherwise, I will be in a hurry to come out of Kunlun County with you alone? Because when you come to Jiangling, you will be very busy…”

After finishing speaking, Pei Yunxi held her chin in a daze again: Should I tell him?

…

Driving the carriage into Jiangling City, Jing Zhe truly felt the prosperity of Jiangling.

The Yunling River passes through the city, with sparkling waves on the river and cruise ships passing by. There are many pedestrians on the bank of the Yunling River, vendors along the street are constantly hawking, and the teahouses and restaurants on the street are doing a booming business.

The teahouses and restaurants close to the river are like food stalls at night in later generations. There are tables and chairs beside the guardrail of the river. People sitting there drinking and tasting tea look at the cruise ships on the river and the women singing and dancing on the cruise ships. , the water sleeves are fluttering, the dance is graceful, the silk and bamboo are pleasing to the ear, and it has a unique mood.

Most of those drinking tea and drinking tea looked to be in their forties or fifties, and they looked like they were also scholars, just middle-aged scholars. They listened to the sound of silk and bamboo and shook their heads and muttered something. He looked knowledgeable, and it seemed that what he had heard before was true. Anyone picked from Jiangling City could read a few lines of poetry.

The only strange thing is that apart from these middle-aged people, there are not many young scholars on the street.

“Fourth sister, come and take a look!”

Jing Zhe shouted excitedly into the car like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

Pei Yunxi then walked out of the car.

If the season in Kunlun County is the beginning of the new year, then Jiangling is full of spring. There are pink willows and green trees everywhere. Coupled with the sound of the piano and the harp on the boat, it is really pleasant.

Seeing that Pei Yunxi was also intoxicated by the scenery in front of him, Jing Zhe said with sincerity: “When I was in Jingzhou before, I heard that any scholar with some talent must come to Jiangling, because if you find anyone in Jiangling, Maybe they are all talented people.”

Pei Yunxi nodded and said: “Jiangling is located in the south of the Yangtze River, built on the edge of the Yangtze River. It has spring-like weather all year round, and the land is fertile. The people have enough food and clothing and don’t have to worry about their livelihood. This naturally provides them with education and literacy. Given the conditions, it is understandable that there are many scholars in Jiangling – but in my opinion, it is of no use.”

This is not because Pei Yunxi looks down on scholars, but because people who practice martial arts are not too interested in poetry.

After hearing this, Jing Zhe laughed and said, “Fourth sister, what you said is just a stick to knock over a boatload of people! Your brother and I are also a scholar!”

“You are useful.”

Pei Yunxi thought for a while and said seriously.

“Hehe.”

After hearing this, Jing Zhe didn’t know what he thought of, and smiled slyly: “The fourth sister has the vision, of course I will be useful!”

Pei Yunxi rolled her eyes at him, curled her lips and said: “It works when you don’t make me angry, but when you do It’s no use when I’m angry.”

Looking at Pei Yunxi’s cute look with her lips pouted, Jing Zhe couldn’t help but reached out and pinched her face. Rarely, Pei Yunxi didn’t hide, she didn’t even think about hiding. , maybe in her heart, she has already determined that Jing Zhe is her man, even her… has already eaten it, what else is there to do with this kind of pinching of the face?

The two of them walked forward and talked, when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them.

“Give way, give way!”

“Oh, don’t crowd, let’s go together!”

“Why are you so anxious? Mr. Feng and Miss Lin must not have arrived at this time!”

“It’s just because they haven’t arrived yet, That’s why you’re so anxious! If Mr. Feng and Miss Lin arrive first, can you still get a place?”

“Brother, you’re right. Run quickly!

“

Jing Zhe turned around and saw a group of young people wearing long robes and looking bookish running from behind. He quickly pulled Pei Yunxi back to avoid being touched by these scholars, thinking just now, Jiang Ling Why haven’t I seen any young scholars in the city? It turns out they are all here!

At the same time, I was curious, what are these scholars doing?

“Brother, please…”

“Don’t stop me!”

“Sir, I…”

“Get out of the way!”

“…”

He didn’t even stop a few people. He looked at them in a hurry and didn’t know where to go. Jing Zhe became even more curious about the urgency of the activity.

Pei Yunxi, on the other hand, folded his hands on his chest, listening to the few words of these people’s conversations, and looking at the place where they disappeared, thoughtfully.
