It just rained and the air was fresh and cool.

Qi Jun moved a big table and placed it by the lake, putting a pot of warm water, hot tea and good wine on it, and arranged fresh fruit and snacks. The old and young people in the mansion sat together to watch Gu Ling and Situ Jing fight.

Just as he sat beside Su Liang, his eyes were bright, "Aunt, who will win?"

"You guess." Su Liang smiled.

Zhenger smiled and said, "Then I guess the beauty uncle will win!" He called Uncle Ning and uncle. Now Zhenger called Gu Ling the beauty uncle. He said that this would reflect the most obvious characteristics of his favorite uncle.

Qiu Cong refused to sit down and was busy greeting everyone, just like a competition he organized. He was not worried that Situ Jing would be beaten up, hoping that the more intense the beat, the better.

In short, Situ Jing and Gu Ling were both disciples of Qiu Cong.

Putting aside Nangong Lin, Situ Jing and Gu Ling's sword skills came from the same source. Qiu Cong had taught Gu Ling the most powerful trick, but had never taught Situ Jing yet.

This is a competition that everyone knows the result before it even started.

Situ Jing, the person involved, also knew about it. But he also wanted to fight this game, wanting to see how big the gap between him and Gu Ling was.

Although Qiu Cong is the successor of Luoying's sword technique, he does not have Luoying's sword.

Luo Ying Sword was originally wandered to the Peng family of Liang Kingdom, but later General Peng gave it to the Beijing Palace of Qian Kingdom at that time, and now it has been given to Su Liang by Xing Ji.

But Gu Ling did not use Luo Ying's sword, but took out a wooden sword. It was one of the wooden weapons he made when he was in Sujia Village.

Seeing this, Qiu Cong took Situ Jing's sword and borrowed his sword from Zheng'er to use it.

When he was in the capital, he was in the Su Mansion almost every day. Sometimes he lived here, and his toys were all here, including a wooden sword, which was also given by Gu Ling.

He agreed readily, but he didn't say he couldn't break it. If it was broken, he would ask for something new from the beauty uncle.

"Okay, let's start." Qiu Cong cleared his throat and looked at Gu Ling and Situ Jing and said. His eyes fell on the lake not far away, and added another sentence, "Whoever loses, jump into the lake!"

Situ Jing, who had just raised the wooden sword:...

Just as he cheered, "Okay, okay! Let's start!"

Lao Mu shouted, "Who lost and hung on the tree to beat him!"

Qiu Cong hummed softly, "Get out!" He could educate his grandson, and Lao Mu stood aside.

...

The competition was very exciting. Both of them used Luo Ying's sword technique. Gu Ling did not use his ultimate move, but he still suppressed Situ Jing.

"My disciple's swordsmanship really imitates you? It looks the same as your grandson's, but it's not the same." Lao Mu leaned over to Qiu Cong to analyze.

Qiu Cong narrowed his eyes and looked at it. When he taught Gu Ling the ultimate moves, he discovered that Gu Ling was a martial arts genius with excellent understanding and would not stick to the rules no matter what he learned.

Situ Jing used the most authentic Luoying sword technique. Every move and every move are very standard, and the speed and strength are not bad at all.

But Gu Ling himself made some seemingly subtle changes, making the speed faster and more powerful.

And when it comes to adapting to changes, Situ Jing and Gu Ling are really different.

Qiu Cong felt that the significance of this competition had reached. Winning and losing was not important. What was important was to let Situ Jing see the gap with Gu Ling and learn from Gu Ling. Jealousy is the most useless emotion, and emotional problems should be completely eliminated from today.

Gu Ling’s ability to have such an understanding is inseparable from his life mentality that is far beyond ordinary people. This is also Su Liang’s strength. Living with them, Qiu Cong saw the spirit of taking them seriously no matter what they do and doing the best.

It's just a competition now, and the only thing Situ Jing who is bound to lose is martial arts skills. Gu Ling is a versatile talent, and he is even less likely than other Situ Jing.

The rhythm is controlled by Gu Ling, from the beginning to the end.

When Situ Jing's wooden sword was broken into two pieces, the two retreated at the same time.

Zheng'er exclaimed, "My sword! That was given to me by Uncle Beauty!"

Gu Ling looked faint, "Let him compensate you."

He blinked his black eyes and nodded, "Then let Uncle Beibei compensate me!" In this way, when he asked for something from the beauty, he would have two new ones!

Situ Jing was a little frustrated. Although he knew he would lose before the fight. But at that time he thought Gu Ling would use his tricks to make him lose ugly.

The result was that Gu Ling had no secret tricks, and Situ Jing lost without any suspense.

Situ Jing knew best that Gu Ling's swordsmanship was also taught by Nangong Lin, just like his. The difference now is Gu Ling's own things.

Situ Jing leaned over and picked up half of the wooden sword on the ground, and then he saw clearly the exquisite patterns on it. When he looked at the patterns, he formed many "六" characters, which were carved by Gu Ling himself and gave to Zhenger.

"I lost." Situ Jing looked at Gu Ling and said these three words, convinced.

In fact, I have always known that there is a gap between him and Gu Ling, and today I just realize more clearly how ridiculous his jealousy was.

It has something to do with their mother being sisters, their Situ blood shed, their masters being Nangong Lin, and his liking to Su Liang... but it is not that important.

Situ Jing now feels that the biggest reason for his jealousy towards Gu Ling is that he regards Gu Ling as an imaginary enemy, because he needs such a person to exist and a goal, otherwise he will not know how to face the reality of life...

All along, everyone thought that Situ Jing liked Su Liang, and he wanted to get Su Liang. The former is true, but the latter is not.

In fact, in Situ Jing's heart, Su Liang and Lin Feng's status are similar, both of them are the warmth and light that appeared in his dark life, and are the people he yearns for.

Rather than saying that Situ Jing wants to get Su Liang, it is better to say that he wants to become like Su Liang, free and easy, and have a strong heart.

In other words, Situ Jing was indeed trapped in love in the first twenty years of his life. After meeting Su Liang, the feelings that troubled him included the feelings with Su Liang, but only a small part of them.

After letting go of his "jealousy" towards Gu Ling, Situ Jing also admitted that Gu Ling and Su Liang were the perfect couple made in heaven.

"Jing'er, I'm willing to accept the loss and jump down!" Qiu Cong pointed at Hu and said to Situ Jing. His purpose was not to make Situ Jing look ugly, but just to let him integrate into this family and relax.

He was just running over and grabbed Situ Jing to the lake, "Uncle Beibei and I jump together, I want to go down and swim! Let's catch fish together!"

Situ Jing felt that he wanted to comfort him, but was moved in fear that he would be too shameless.

Situ Jing walked into the water with his master on his back. Nangong Qian stood on the shore and asked, "Is the water cold?"

"It's not cold!" Zhenger replied happily.

Qiu Cong found the handheld fishing net made by Gu Ling and threw it to Situ Jing.

Finally, they actually caught a fat fish, and said to Situ Jing, "The fried fish made by Uncle Beauty is the most delicious in the world!"

Situ Jing shook his head, "I can't eat it."

Zhenger whispered, "When it's done, I'll hide a piece for Uncle Beibei to eat."

Situ Jing smiled, "Okay."

...

Su Liang has been unable to eat fish recently, so he was asking Gu Ling to make fried fish pieces, and Gu Ling made a large plate.

"Can I take it with Mr. Qiu and Mr. Mu to eat?" Zheng'er asked.

Gu Ling nodded and ran away with the plate.

Another person from Liangguo Inn asked Situ Jing when he would go back. He asked Qi Jun to tell the person that he would go back.

Situ Jing didn't leave, just waiting to eat the fried fish that he said he wanted to secretly share.

Just now, Qiu Cong and Lao Mu were following behind him.

The two elders were one big and one small, and the four of them quickly ate all the fried fish made by Gu Ling.

Lao Mu felt that it was not enough, "My disciple's cooking skills are getting better and better, but there are too few."

Qiu Cong said to Situ Jing, "If you have time, you will learn to cook, otherwise you will not be able to marry a wife. Don't worry about the boy from the Lin family, he likes a girl named Yuan."

Situ Jing:...When will marry a wife have something to do with whether you can cook? But Gu Ling's cooking skills are really unspeakable.

As for Lin Jun and Yuan Ying, Situ Jing only found out today. He also knew that Yuan Ying's grandmother, Mrs. Yue, originally wanted to marry her granddaughter into the Yue Palace. However, Yuan Ying betrayed Mrs. Yue and Situ Xie, otherwise Xing Ji would have died.

...

It was not until the evening that Situ Jing finally returned to Liangguo Inn. The clothes he wore were borrowed from Qi Jun because his clothes were wet.

When he entered the lobby of the inn, he saw the two coffins placed. Situ Jing called someone and asked him to arrange a mourning hall here.

Situ Jing rushed over after hearing the news, "The Second Prince, Yao'er is about to get married from the inn. If a mourning hall is set up here, I'm afraid Emperor Qian will find it unlucky." He suppressed his anger and used Duanmu Chen to stop Situ Jing.

Situ Jing did not get angry like in the morning. He was silent for a moment when he heard this, nodded and said, "That's right. Then I'll find another place to place the body of my adoptive parents."

Situ Jing was surprised. He didn't expect Situ Jing to be so easy to talk to suddenly, but it would be better if he could get away with Chen's father and mother's coffin.

Situ Jing asked Situ Jing what was wrong with being asked to go to the Su Mansion today.

Situ Jing only said that his grandfather asked him to go over and have a meal.

Regarding the return to Qianguo, Situ Jing agreed to Gu Ling and kept silent for the time being because he wanted to send Chen's father and mother's coffin back to Xuanbei City for burial. After arriving in Xuanbei City, he would give Situ Jing and Liangguo a "surprise".

After all, it will be the day when Situ Yao enters the palace soon. If Situ Jing suddenly turns against him at this time, some things will be difficult to continue.

This is also what Duanmuchen means.

Situ Jing said he wanted to find another place, but he moved his adoptive parents' coffin out of the inn hall and placed it in an empty yard, which was still in the inn.

Situ Jing asked Situ Jing if he had hope to win over his grandfather Qiu Cong back to Liangguo together.

Situ Jing said yes, he would have more contact with Qiu Cong and Nangong Qian next, and try to persuade them before leaving.

Situ Jing was a little relieved and felt that he and Situ Yao had been worried about it before. It seemed that after Situ Jing contacted the Su Mansion, his relationship with Su Liang and Gu Ling was even worse.

...

Next, Situ Jing would go to Su Mansion every day, and usually leave after lunch in Su Mansion.
