Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 251 Meng's Plan

Seeing his father with his back turned, Meng Lingxi became very uneasy.

But no matter how much you try to escape, you still have to face what you should face.

He summoned up his courage, walked up to the two of them, and fell to his knees with a "plop".

No matter how open-minded you are, tell yourself to work harder, and you must win Su Yizhao next time.

But the father and the great elder in front of him made his heart heavy.

"Xi'er, I'm sorry for Clan Cultivation, I lost this time." Meng Lingxi took a deep breath, his mind was blank at the moment.

Meng Shunlin stood up, supported Meng Lingxi's arm from the ground, and then said: "We already know about this. Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, and so is Wendou. It's just a one-off failure, which doesn't mean anything."

Meng Lingxi was surprised, he looked up to see his father's face.

I saw that my father, who used to be stern to me, now had a pleasant expression, with no displeasure or force on his face.

Meng Shunlin smiled and said, "Before I became a father, I told you that there are people beyond others, and now you have seen it, right? In the future, you must put away your arrogant temper and work harder to surpass him."

Only then did Meng Lingxi relax completely, but his eyes were full of determination, and his whole body was full of fighting spirit.

"Son will definitely work harder."

"Although it took a lot of effort to build this campaign, Su Yizhao took advantage of it. But you handled it well this time, and our Meng family didn't lose much face." Meng Shunlin continued to praise.

He was very pleased with his son's attitude in handling things this time.

Since years ago, Xi'er has been brought along in the clan's discussions.With broadened horizons, Xi'er can be alone.

Meng Lingxi's complexion changed, and the good literary competition was mixed with other purposes, which made him a little sad.

He admired Su Yizhao from the bottom of his heart, and he also sincerely admitted defeat.

It's just that he remembered the efforts and sustenance of his clansmen, so he swallowed the words again.

The Great Elder took a look at Meng Lingxi, and said, "You are tired today, so go back to your room and rest!"

Looking at the back of Meng Lingxi going away, the Great Elder sighed.

"Xi'er is actually pure and kind-hearted, and has the arrogance of a literati. I'm afraid I will suffer in the future. Judging from the news I just got, Su Yizhao is not a fuel-efficient lamp. This person has deep plans."

Meng Shunlin shook his head, "Teach me a lot during this period, and when I become an official, I won't be able to let him go. As for Su Yizhao, with him as a comparison, I believe Xi'er will grow up very quickly."

After Su Yizhao returned to the mansion, he focused his energy on studying again.

In this literary battle with Meng Lingxi, she realized her own shortcomings.

I have to say that Meng Lingxi's article is also very sophisticated.She had read the other party's policy and theory before, and she was very familiar with current affairs, and she had very unique insights.

Although they won't meet Tong Shengshi, they can't take it lightly.

Another day later, Su Yizhao was eating the morning food, but he heard Kikyo come in and report that the master let her go.

"Father is back?" Su Yizhao asked in surprise.

Su Wenqing and he went out to visit friends two days ago, saying that it was a long journey and it would take three or four days to return.

"I heard from Manager Zhou that I came back last night. When I came back, it was already the hour of the day."

Kikyo began to prepare Su Yizhao's big cloak, which was different from the at-home dress, and had to be changed into a thick jacket.

"Are you back so late?"

Su Yizhao was very strange. When he went out to visit friends, he just calculated the time and came back.There is nothing important, why are you still on your way at night?
After eating in a hurry, Su Yizhao changed into clothes and went to Su Wenqing's yard ahead.

Before he reached the small study, Su Yizhao heard coughing from inside.

She paused, and then said to Gu Yuan who was guarding the door: "Father is unwell?"

Gu Yuan nodded, "Master feels cold occasionally."

"Did you take the decoction? Have you seen a doctor?" Su Yizhao asked immediately.

Su Wenqing saw that her body was not strong, but she never felt unwell, unexpectedly she caught a cold?

"I've already taken the decoction, and I've seen the doctor. Wait a minute, master. The villain will go in and report to you." Gu Yuan entered the small study as he said.

Su Wenqing had already heard Su Yizhao's voice, and shouted out of the study: "Let him in!"

"Father!" Su Yizhao saluted as soon as he entered the study.

At the same time, the tip of her nose smelled a herbal smell.After sniffing it carefully, she felt a little surprised.

Why does it smell like panax notoginseng?Like the notoginseng powder of trauma medicine, only the trauma powder in the pharmacy will be mixed with this kind of notoginseng powder.

Su Yizhao knew so clearly because of rhubarb, because rhubarb often went out to hunt and sometimes got injured, so Su Yizhao bought two bottles for him.

There is also Shi Fang, who did not know where he got the boxing manual, he likes to practice boxing very much recently, and has also used this kind, and there is also an oral decoction for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.

These contain notoginseng.

Therefore, she is very familiar with this smell.

Glancing at Su Wenqing's face, Su Yizhao found that Su Wenqing's complexion was very pale, even his lips were bloodless, and his eyes were still tired.

"There are four more days until the end. In these few days, I will focus on my career. Wendou, it's better not to take part in the exam before the exam." Su Wenqing said bluntly.

Su Yizhao let go of the doubts in his heart for the time being, "Yes! The second uncle also said that it is not suitable to leave the house these few days."

There is no way, since Su Yizhao won this competition, the posts of this literary society have been floating to Su's residence like snowflakes.

But her exam is coming soon, so it is impossible to pay attention to it, and let Uncle Zhong deal with it.

Return some salutes to apologize, but also explain the reason.

"Well! My father already knows about the competition between you and Meng Lingxi. You narrowly beat him this time, but you may not be able to win next time. This son has participated in dozens of competitions, and he is very experienced."

Su Yizhao nodded when she heard the words, she could see it naturally.

"Your second uncle should have told you that if the Meng family wants to rise again, they must act in a high-profile manner. This time, it is to use our Su family as a stepping stone to make their Meng family famous." Su Wenqing continued.

"After all, we are a family from the capital, so they are not afraid of offending our Su family?"

Su Yizhao felt a little strange, the Su family was a family of officials after all, wouldn't the Meng family be afraid that their clansmen would become officials in the future and be tripped by the Su family?

It's a big deal for the family to lose face.

"Hmph! Naturally, their Meng family has climbed the high branch, and they don't pay attention to our Su family."

Su Wenqing snorted coldly, seeing Su Yizhao looking at him curiously, thinking that the old son was already 12 years old, so there was nothing to say.

"The divination technique inherited by the Meng family has made many people envious. Although the Meng family has kept a low profile these years, many officials have been involved with them in recent years."

Su Wenqing touched her knee with her hand under the desk, and frowned slightly.

"Since becoming an official, some people have pinned their future on these illusory things. In addition, the Meng clan is good at strategy, and many members of the clan have become official staff."
