It's not scary to travel through a book, you can change your fate as a cannon fodder by yoursel

Given Lu Yaowen's cautiousness, he would naturally not agree to anything with someone he was not familiar with. He had never met that Lord Chang, and he only knew that he was also recruiting people for a certain Lord, and he would not easily let anyone know about the person behind him.

Seeing Lu Yaowen like this, Weng Xiaoxiao kept silent and just listened quietly.

After talking for a while, the man surnamed Wen saw that no one responded and walked away unhappily.

Lu Yaowen continued to chat with his friends about their articles.

The manor was far from the city, so the students would not be allowed to go back hungry. There was a banquet at noon, which was elegantly held outdoors, but it was too cold this season, so it was held in the banquet hall.

Each person has a small table, with four dishes and a soup, which is very exquisite.

Weng Xiaoxiao was a non-staff member and sat at the same table with Lu Yaowen. As soon as she sat down, she noticed Lin Changqing, who was sitting right next to Master Lin.

As the host, Mr. Lin said a few high-sounding polite words, and toasted another round of wine, and the banquet officially began.

A literary gathering is a must for a banquet. After three rounds of drinking, they started playing the flying flower game, using the word "plum" as the first character.

As the opening speaker, Young Master Lin chanted loudly, "The plum is three points less white than the snow, but the snow is one point less fragrant than the plum."

"Brother, every word you say is like a plum, it's wonderful!" Lin Changqing flattered him in a servile manner.

Lin Changchun smiled and said, "Stop talking and pick up the conversation."

"This is not a problem for me. Listen carefully, everyone. Plum blossoms without snow are not lively. Snow without plum blossoms is vulgar."

Lin Changchun nodded. This playful brother had passed the test. It would have been embarrassing if he hadn't come up.

As a literati, he has a lot of ideas in his mind, so it is no problem for him to recite a few lines of poetry.

When it was Lu Yaowen's turn, he also casually wrote, "A few plum blossoms in the corner, blooming alone in the cold."

Weng Xiaoxiao automatically shrank back, thinking that it would be better for her not to participate, but someone wouldn't let her.

Someone nearby said, "Since you're here, why don't you participate? Little brother, it's your turn. Everyone present will take part."

Since that was said, Weng Xiaoxiao couldn't refuse, and Lu Yaowen couldn't stop him. He was about to say something for him, but he saw Weng Xiaoxiao just lowered her head and thought for a while, then she spoke, "The bamboo shadows and the poems are thin, and the plum blossoms are fragrant in dreams."

Not only did he say it, he said it quite well.

"Great! Look at me. I went to Xizhou to recall the plum blossoms and sent them to Jiangbei."

After three rounds, many people had been punished, but Weng Xiaoxiao answered them all, which really surprised Lu Yaowen.

"Weng Xiao, you are really strange. Have you ever been to school? If not, you wouldn't be able to recite so many poems. If you said you have been to school, how come you can't write? You can't even recognize the Thousand Character Classic."

Weng Xiaoxiao hadn't figured out how to cover up this loophole. No one would believe her if she said she guessed it.

"I... sir, how can I explain this? I have read a lot of books, but it is also true that I don't recognize many words." It's so hard to explain clearly.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking casually." Everyone had their own difficulties, and Lu Yaowen had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.

Weng Xiaoxiao quickly smiled and poured wine for Mr. Lu. This gentleman is really nice, very considerate and thoughtful.

After a few rounds, the flying flower order stopped and everyone started to move freely. Those who knew each other gathered together to continue talking about poetry and drinking. Lu Yaowen's friends no longer regarded Weng Xiaoxiao as a nobody or a follower. But Weng Xiaoxiao only listened and didn't interrupt. She just wanted to get familiar with ancient literati and didn't want to be famous.

However, after listening for a while, I got a little bored. She really is not cut out for academic study.

......

When Lin Changqing came to invite Weng Xiaoxiao, Weng Xiaoxiao did not hesitate at all, just said a word to Lu Yaowen and came out. It was only because of the fight at that time that Lin Changqing was still loyal.

"How was it? Didn't you suffer a big loss then?"

"Haha, I suffered a little loss. Those two guys are ruthless."

"Not only are your hands ruthless, your mouth is also vicious. Do you have a grudge against each other?"

"It's not called hatred, it's just that we don't like each other. When we meet, we say a few words to each other, and when we get angry, we fight."

"You're talking about your sister. This guy is not a good person. There's no point in fighting with him."

Lin Changqing was stunned. This boy was quite sharp. "That's right. I won't play with them. Don't mind what they say. I don't have that intention. Even if I go to drink wine, I won't touch the head of the girl. Anyone can do it, but I don't need it."

Is this considered a clean person among the playboys? Just because he let her run away first, he is not a bad person.

"Let me make it clear first. There's no problem with us being friends. I won't go drinking with you, especially with prostitutes. If you treat me as a friend, I will naturally treat you as a brother, not a drinking buddy who takes advantage of you or acts as your henchman."

Lin Changqing smiled. He lacked such real friends. It could be said that the friends he had played with since childhood were all bad friends, and none of them was ambitious.

"That's right. I don't lack people like that around me, and I don't want them either. You're still young, so you can drink again in two years. But if you don't drink, it's a lot less fun. What can we do? Riding horses, playing polo, we have to wait until spring, it's too cold now."

Horse riding, polo...

"Then can you teach me? I want to learn." Weng Xiaoxiao looked pleading.

"Sure, my skills are great."

This person must have a lot of friends. Thinking of this, Weng Xiaoxiao tried to ask, "Mr. Lin, I want to learn Qinggong. Do you have any connections? Just tell me where to find disciples, and I can do it myself."

Are you bored? Do you know how hard it is to learn Kung Fu?

"You are already this old, and you still want to learn Kung Fu? Other people have learned it since childhood. The children of my uncle's family basically start doing horse stance as soon as they can walk. My cousin was invincible in the capital when he was your age."

"Is your uncle a military commander? I can't possibly be that close to him. I just want to learn some martial arts skills. If I can't beat him, I can always run away, right?"

Lin Changqing looked Weng Xiaoxiao up and down and gave her a thumbs up. "I said you were interesting. You are really knowledgeable. Why didn't I think of that? If you can't beat them, use Qinggong to escape. You are talented! If learning Qinggong is not too hard, I would also like to learn it."

He counted the names of the people he knew on his fingers, "My cousin is no good. That beast would torture me to death. He is studying in the Imperial College and has no time."

Could it be that the military commander of the Imperial College will become a great general in the future?

It was not convenient for Weng Xiaoxiao to ask more questions now. There must be more than one child of military generals studying in the Imperial College.

"My cousin can do it. Although she is a martial arts fanatic, she has a good temper and is patient."

Weng Xiaoxiao curled her lips, "Mr. Lin, is it convenient for the young lady to teach us?" He just said that Lin Changqing was reliable, and now he wants to ask his cousin to teach him kung fu? His cousin must also be a lady from a wealthy family.

Lin Changqing waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about that. The key is whether we can endure this hardship."

"I'm sure I can do it, for your life! But if you don't learn, it will be difficult for a boy like me to get close to other girls."

"Haha, you are afraid too? Don't worry, this little sister has been very cute recently. If she knew that it was you who wanted to learn, she would definitely accept you as her disciple."

There's already a fangirl now? Weng Xiaoxiao was very surprised.
