Lin Pingzhi waved his hand and piled up a lot of miscellaneous gifts. Ye Wen was surprised. The young master of the Lin family continued: "These are gifts for Brother Ye and you, and there are also..." While speaking, he pointed outside. Ye Wen looked along his finger and found that there were still many servants and servants standing outside, carrying large boxes waiting outside.

And this attitude made many people see it and keep talking around.

"Oh, what's going on?"

"You don't know? The new top scholar lives here, and they are all here to recruit son-in-law!"

"Oh! That's it, no wonder I saw that the inn goes in and out today was not calm. It turned out that the first son-in-law lives here!" Then I looked at the crowd of people with big boxes and small boxes: "Which one is this?"

"Shu Lin's family!"

"Shangshu Lin? That's not..."

"Shh! Don't talk too much, just watch the fun!"

Lin Pingzhi smiled slightly: "These are all gifts for the top scholar Brother Xu. I hope Brother Ye will accept them on his behalf!"

Ye Wen also saw that the Lin family had invested enough money to recruit Xu Xian, the son-in-law. If they were afraid that it would be difficult to deal with it, they first tentatively said: "My junior brother is not able to do anything about it, and what Mr. Lin is doing is..." Then he pushed out the many gifts in front of him: "It is not easy to accept this gift, Mr. Lin still..."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Pingzhi interrupted: "These are just meeting gifts, and they have nothing to do with Brother Xu's affairs! Brother Ye, don't refuse!" Then he pushed the pile of things in front of him back to their original position: "As for Brother Xu's affairs, Brother Ye can just agree to help and talk. It doesn't matter whether he succeeds or not!"

When Ye Wen heard this, his eyes twitched and thought that the Lin family was indeed extraordinary. Cheng and Bucheng gave so many gifts, and this friendship was considered a matter of marriage. Even if Xu Xian refused to marry his woman, he would not have no love at all. And Xu Xian, the top scholar, could be closer to the Lin family in the future in the officialdom, which is also a kind of official investment.

While hesitating, Lin Pingzhi whispered again: "I know that my sister is quite famous in this capital, but my sister is also well-educated. Although she has a little bit of a temper, she is not unreasonable! The many reputations in this capital are so evil that everyone says because of rumors!"

"Do you like to use whips to slap people or have a bigger temper?" He murmured in his heart, but still didn't say anything. He just opened a small small box in front of him, and saw a pair of green gem pendant earrings appear in front of him.

As soon as Ye Wen opened the box, Ning Ruxue, who had not spoken, looked here and looked at her. She loved her very much at the sight, and couldn't help but look at her for a while. When Ye Wen saw it, he handed it to her: "If you like it, accept it!"

Then he turned to Lin Pingzhi and said, "I, Ye Wen, are not the ones who have received favors from others in vain. After saying that, he took out his long sword and pulled it out with a clang.

This long sword was originally a Shushan Sect-style weapon, not surprising. Lin Pingzhi was wondering why Ye Wen took out such a long sword, so he couldn't help but look at Brother Fang beside him.

Just as he was surprised and suspicious, Ye Wen stood upright in front of him, lifted his left hand and raised his index finger with his right hand. He used his qi to point his sword, and his purple sword energy appeared on his fingertips. With this hand, the big brother Fang on the opposite side changed his face, and at the same time, he became more and more impressed by the young Shushan leader.

The two of them sat opposite, unable to see what Ye Wen was doing, only hearing a sound of metal rubbing constantly, which was really not nice.

Fortunately, the sound disappeared after only a moment. Ye Wen handed the long sword to Lin Pingzhi: "This is a token. If you need any help, just take this sword to Shushan outside Shushan County, Pingzhou to find me!"

Lin Pingzhi took it and saw that the sword was originally bright and smooth, with the words Ye Wen of Shushan School written on the sword. The vigorous and powerful one is a good calligraphy. What's more, this word was written by Ye Wen with his fingers on the sword. He had heard of such magical skills before at most in the stories of storytellers, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.

Lin Pingzhi has been receiving various teachings since he was a child. When he saw this sword, he knew what this thing meant. Especially when he saw his elder brother Fang's expression, he knew that such masters were definitely not something that any cabbage on the roadside could meet.

Originally, he only thought that Ye Wen had good skills. Although he should be a good player in the world, it was not too exaggerated. Now he realized that Ye Wen was a great master in the world. It would be better to know such a master in the world. He gave so many gifts.

After handing the scabbard result from Huayi, sheathed the long sword to Brother Fang, whom she trusted the most, Lin Pingzhi said: "Brother Ye is so polite!"

Ye Wen didn't say anything, just took a sip of tea!

He was indeed polite, otherwise he would have received a lot of things for nothing but not helping others with things. After all, he had no idea about the eldest lady of the Lin family who had never met before, so he naturally could not help with the matchmaking.

Then several people chatted for a while, and Lin Pingzhi suddenly said, "I don't know if your sect can still recruit disciples?"

Ye Wen was stunned. When he saw Lin Pingzhi's excited look, he immediately understood that this was Mr. Lin's mind that he had the desire to learn martial arts. However, as the Minister of the Shangshu, could this person suffer the hardship of learning martial arts?

He observed here and heard Lin Pingzhi say, "I have learned a few years of hard work with my elder brother. Although it is just a few simple moves, I think it is a bit basic, so it shouldn't be too bad!"

Although he said this, his expression showed a little bit of confidence. He knew his family's affairs. Since childhood, he mainly studied various strategies and poetry. Sometimes he had to learn from his father how to be a human being and how to get along with others. Although he was not old and was less than twenty years old this year, he learned a lot and was quite experienced.

However, the consequence of studying so hard is that his body is poor. In addition, his children, at his age, there are basically a few girls who are warming their quilts every day and going out to spend time and spend time. This body is not much better. Moreover, there is not much leisure time, and there is very little time to practice martial arts. If his father didn't think that proper exercise can ensure health, he wouldn't even have this amount of time to practice martial arts.

Ye Wen glanced at it, raised his right hand and made a gesture to take his pulse. Lin Pingzhi was very enlightened and knew that it was someone who wanted to check his roots and bones, so he immediately handed over his wrist.

After only a while of account, Ye Wen frowned: "Your body is so bad..."

Lin Pingzhi didn't expect that his foundation would be seen by someone, and said embarrassedly: "I also ate some supplements on weekdays, but the effect is limited!"

Ye Wen said: "Why don't eat too much hard-to-replenishing things? Eating too much will make it worse!" Then he asked: "What skills have you practiced on weekdays?"

Lin Pingyi replied that most of them were simple swordsmanship and fists, and they had practiced the skills of qi cultivation, but it was still difficult to get started.

Ye Wen thought for a while, finally held Lin Pingzhi's wrist, crossed a stream of true qi, and whispered: "Remember the route of true qi moving in the body!"

Lin Pingzhi was just stunned and immediately realized that this was a great blessing. He didn't dare to speak out, but just quietly felt the hot silk thread spinning in his body for a few turns, and even Ye Wen didn't know when he would loose his hands.

When he came back to his senses and was about to thank Ye Wen, he saw Ye Wen: "You and I have a chance to meet each other. Today, I will help you cross this threshold. As long as you follow this route in the future, you will not become a martial arts master, but you will still have no problem in prolonging your life and being healthy."

The route of his qi management just now was just some basic breathing techniques, which were similar to basic internal skills. In fact, it was modified by the breathing techniques he had practiced at the beginning. Because he had been practicing Taoist internal skills for a long time, he made this attempt after he had a certain understanding of internal qi health, and had long made up his mind to use this set of health breathing skills as a gift for favors.

This skill is average in practicing qi, but it adheres to the consistent characteristics of Taoist practices and has good effects on health preservation and self-regulation. If ordinary people persist and practice diligently, they can still walk vigorously until they are in their seventies or eighties, and can also develop a pretty good internal strength.

It was passed on to Lin Pingzhi today. The Shushan Sect has also been considered a good relationship with the Lin family. However, the marriage seemed to have been ignored intentionally or unintentionally by both parties.

Lin Pingzhi is not an inconspicuous person. He only looks at people's behavior and understands that it is basically impossible to recruit Xu Xian into the Lin family as a son-in-law today, but getting these things is not a waste of time.

I have deepened my friendship with Ye Wen. I won’t talk about whether it will be troublesome in the future, but one more friend can at least go multiple ways, right?

More importantly, if you can make a connection with the Shushan Sect, the Lin family can also invite the Shushan Sect to send a few outstanding disciples to ensure their own safety in the future. This is better than anything else.

"Actually what I care about the most is the Qi training method that Brother Ye taught me. This hot thread is spinning around in my body, which is really interesting and tight!"

The guard Fang was also admired when he heard this. He could allow a ray of true energy to continue to dissipate after entering the human body and keep running. He was indeed the kind of master who needed him to look up to him.

"Young Master has such an opportunity and needs to practice hard in the future!"

Lin Pingzhi smiled and said, "That's natural!" He still remembered that before leaving, Ye Wen secretly told him in his ear: "The true qi I send into your body will dissipate on its own in seven days. If you practice hard these few days, you can practice a true qi of your own, then it's okay if my true qi dissipates. If you don't practice, then it will be much more difficult for you to practice the true qi by yourself after the true qi is dissipated! My help today is at most to make you feel comfortable!"

"I won't talk about it anymore. If you have to practice this health preservation technique well, it will be of great benefit to your sexual intercourse!"

Just this sentence strengthened the determination of the Lin family’s young master to practice this skill hard, and said intimately: “We must try the majesty that will never fall that night!”

He didn't know that he had just left, and the young master of the Baili family also ran over to pay homage to Ye Wen.

"Young Master Baili is also a matchmaker for his sisters?" Ye Wen didn't have much impression of this Youth Master Baili. He didn't talk much when he was chatting. He didn't want to come here to visit him today.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Ye Wen knew that he had guessed wrong: "I came to visit Brother Ye today!" Baili Ming saw Ye Wen with a strange look and explained: "Maybe Brother Ye is strange, why did he come to visit Brother Ye specifically? In fact, my Baili family is a military family and has some ancestral skills at home, so he is closer to people in the martial arts world, so he came to visit!"

"oh……"

Only then did Ye Wen realize that Baili Ming's father was a commander in the Imperial Guard, and he was also very powerful and responsible for the defense of the capital. Baili Ming also had a free position in the Imperial Guard, and he might get a real position in a few years.

Baili Ming ran over and did not obey any orders from his family. He simply came to get close to Ye Wen. After chatting for a while, Baili Ming said goodbye and left.

Just saying that, Ye Wen felt it was not that simple. Baili Ming would come to get close to the head of a country sect? To put it bluntly, he just wanted to win over himself by relying on friendship.

Not to mention that my junior brother is the new top scorer, he is also incredible. If the Baili family can win over it, it will be equivalent to indirectly winning over Xu Xian. At the same time, it has also established a relationship with the Shushan Sect. If he can ask a few outstanding disciples from the Shushan Sect to enrich his team, it will be a great benefit.

"No of these officials' children is a fool!"

After seeing Bai Liming away and seeing that many gifts were piled in his room, Ye Wen secretly wondered if he should leave the capital as soon as possible? If this continues, he himself is not much better than Xu Xian. He has become a rare giant panda and is really not very good.

Just as he was muttering, Xu Xian walked in with a tired face. When he saw Ye Wen's posture in the room, he also laughed: "Senior brother is too busy today, right?"

Ye Wen had already expected Xu Xian's gloating and replied indifferently: "It's still the bestowal of the junior brother!" After that, he said: "Didn't you just want to fool around?"

"I'm fooling me! But I didn't fool it..." When Xu Xian said this, he was also depressed. He didn't expect that this palace examination would be so watery, and he could even pass the top scorer if he answered casually.

When Ye Wen heard Xu Xian say this, he could only sigh, and then stopped obsessing with the topic, just asked: "When are you going to leave the capital?"

Xu Xian thought for a while: "At least, we have to wait until the emperor rewards us with new Jinshi, and then go to the department to report to us!"

"Oh! What department do you think you will join?" Ye Wen remembered that most of the new Jinshi were admitted to the Hanlin Academy, and he didn't know if the imperial court had such a department.

Xu Xian said: "The third-class Jinshi usually enters the Hanlin Academy. It is a free position and there is no good fortune. It is not accurate when it can be released! The second-class Jinshi may not be certain. Some people enter the Hanlin Academy and some people study in the six departments."

"Where is the first prize?" Yijia is the top scorer, the second prize, and the three. Judging from Xu Xian's meaning, he will be admitted to a real power department for further study at the most. In that case, it will be difficult to resign!

"It must be included in the Six Divisions! As for where you will go, it depends on how the emperor decides!" Xu Xian also realized this problem and immediately came to Ye Wen and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, are there still green fruits left?"

"Do you want to...?"

Xu Xian raised his finger: "If necessary, you have to do so! But now you have to leave the capital and return to Shushan first!"

After chatting for a while, I found that it was not too late. After looking at the messy room, Ye Wen knew that he couldn't eat it in the room: "Go to the lobby to have a bite! I'm just being watched, but I don't look at me anyway!"

A group of people came to the lobby. It was the meal time and there were still many people. He and his group finally got two tables and ordered good dishes. I don’t know how many people came up to get close to Xu Xian. Many people seemed to have been waiting there for a long time, hoping that the top scholar would appear.

Some of these people came up to talk about something to see, some people came from recommendations, such as being an official for Xu Xian. Some even more amazing ones were that a girl actually ran to Xu Xian, knelt down and cried and shouted to be a concubine for him, which made Xu Xian extremely angry.

This meal was so lively, and Ye Wen regarded it as watching the show.

And because everyone around him looked at them, he didn't notice at first that two women in the distant corner were talking about the group of people while making food.

"male……"

The man opposite glared.

"Miss...that's the new top scorer, Seo Hyun!"

The woman who looked quite good and attracted a lot of attention but didn't think there was anything wrong with it said, "I... I'm going to see it, do you still use it?"

The woman wore a skirt made of silk, and her unfair temperament was undoubtedly revealed. Sitting in such a corner was really eye-catching. If Xu Xian hadn't had the halo of the top scholar, most of the people in the lobby were looking at this person.

"Miss, emperor... The eldest young master means betrothing the lady to that Mr. Xu! Look at Mr. Xu, who is handsome and talented, he is reluctant to be worthy of you!"

The woman raised her eyes slightly, glanced at Xu Xian, and then said proudly: "What's the good thing about a man who looks like a woman?" After saying that, Xu Xian coughed twice and said: "Is he still a man so sick and weak? Why not as pleasant as the one next to him?" As she said that, she pointed to one of the Shushan Sect's people: "You can walk freely with such a big weapon, so you can be considered a man."

The maid next to him said again: "Miss, that's the top scholar. It is said that she is extraordinary in literature. There was almost no dispute during the palace examination. All the ministers all recommended him as the top scholar! Isn't this talent exactly what the lady said at the beginning?"

The woman snorted: "Miss's requirement is to be extraordinary in literature, knowledgeable and well-educated, outstanding in appearance, and upright in shape. It is best to know some martial arts. This is a lady who is both civil and military, and is barely matched with me!"

The maid stuck out her tongue after hearing this: "If you want to meet the lady's requirements, then the man will probably become an old man!" Because this person's requirements are numerous and high, how can an ordinary man in his twenties do so much?

I didn't expect that when this person heard this, he just glanced at him contemptuously: "That's because he is not good enough, how can he match me with me?" Then he said: "I traveled quietly today, just to see what the top scholar is... Humph, but that's it!"

The maid looked at the three table guards surrounding him, and then looked at the many guards sitting outside on the street, and she was sweating in a cold sweat: "Miss, are you still low-key?"
Chapter completed!
