If Qi Shence was the kind of person who would destroy his manners in a fit of anger, then he wouldn't be able to enjoy such a high reputation in Shangyin Academy. The descendants of the Qi family were generals in West Chu, charging into enemy lines without fear of death. As civil officials, they were able to do as they pleased, and in the blink of an eye, they had become good-natured gentlemen. This was probably the secret of how the Qi family was able to prosper in West Chu. Qi Shence's face was like jade, and there was a long sword hanging at his waist. It was normal for scholars to carry swords in the academy. There were even some comical students who carried large axes even though they clearly didn't have the strength to truss up a chicken. Shangyin Academy had always been lax about this. As long as they didn't use weapons to hurt people, they wouldn't stop them even if they carried all kinds of weapons in one go. But generally speaking, Jixia scholars still carried swords. Qi Shence watched as the man slowly walked over. Along the way, the goat-horned girl held a grudge and kept throwing snowballs at him. This guy wasn't angry at all, and allowed the snowballs to shatter on his body. As he approached the pavilion, he reached out his hand to pat the snow off his body, shook his head, and scraped his boots against the edge of the steps, as if he was afraid that people wouldn't know that he was an ignorant and incompetent scoundrel. The goat-horned girl was still nagging. The snow outside the pavilion was getting thicker, and she used all her strength to roll out a large snowball that she could hold with both hands. She wanted to give this detestable scoundrel a fatal blow, but because she ran too fast, the snowball was too heavy, and the steps were slippery. She staggered and was about to fall on the steps. The white-haired young man, whose back was facing the girl, nimbly stretched out his leg and tiptoed on her forehead, stopping her from falling forward. The little girl felt embarrassed in front of her playmate, so she grabbed this guy's leg and bit down hard. He jumped and turned around, bent down, and twisted her ear. The two of them were in a deadlock, competing in endurance. The two of them were using their eyes to bargain whether he should let go first or she should let go first. After all, the goat-horned girl was a little girl who couldn't bear pain. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she surrendered first. However, she was still pinched by this scoundrel who was only old but not virtuous. The little girl was heartbroken. She cried as if her innocence had been sullied by a flower thief. The naturally charming woman in fox fur put down the white cat and stood up to hug her, and only then did she feel a little better.
Qi Shence sighed in his heart. It was too ridiculous that he was jealous of this country bumpkin. However, he was still a little angry at this person's rude words. Qi Shence to ask calmly, "What a real man's words?"
Unexpectedly, that bastard opened his mouth with a smile and hurled insults at him. "I can beat up five hundred elegant gentlemen like you with one hand. Don't you think I'm a man? "
Although the goat-horned lass in Yu Youwei's arms treated this guy as her greatest enemy today, she didn't have a good impression of Qi Shence who looked like a dog. Shuangshuang was the father and mother of Sir Ji Shang, so she often criticized him in private. She couldn't stand him blindly worshipping the ancients and pretending to be noble and virtuous. Under this influence, the little girl thought of Qi Shence as a sissy. When she heard that the stranger made Qi Shence suffer, she immediately laughed out loud and secretly gave him a thumbs up. It went without saying that they were enemies, but if you really dared to teach this Qi guy a lesson, this heroine would definitely clap her hands and cheer for you.
Qi Shence smiled freely. "When an ordinary man gets angry, it'll only cause blood to splatter on the spot. This kind of quick revenge is of no help to the affairs of the country or the world."
That person still used the vulgar words of a scoundrel. "We're the only two men in the pavilion. This old man can break your three legs with one slap. How can you talk about strategizing thousands of li away?"
The goat-horned lass looked up and asked softly, "Big Sister Yu, I've heard of a three-legged toad. How come there's a three-legged man?"
Yu Youwei rubbed her little head and shook her head without saying anything.
Qi Shence's finger secretly stroked the hilt of his sword. He smiled warmly and said, "This young master can really beat five hundred Qi Shence with one hand?"
That person's expression turned serious. He asked in a low voice, "You're Qi Shence?"
Qi Shence, who didn't look at Yu Youwei, smirked. He finally showed the innate arrogance of a prince of a wealthy clan. In front of outsiders, he had to maintain the demeanor of a gentleman taught by a saint. In front of this idiot, he might continue to provoke him if he only showed respect and humility. Qi Shence had always been good at finding the right remedy for a problem. He knew that this kind of half-baked scion with shaky foundations would be arrogant just because they had a little money and power. They only knew how to bully the weak and fear the strong. They wouldn't remember if they didn't suffer the pain. Qi Shence was able to be like a fish in water in Shangyin Academy and become friends with many Ji Shang teachers despite the difference in age. Other than his own talent and knowledge, the Qi Family was still thriving even after the collapse of West Chu. The foundation of aristocratic clans was that they wouldn't fall in the face of the wind. Regardless of the rise and fall of the dynasty, they would still do their own research. The emperors and kings would still have to treat the wise with respect. Most of the top ten wealthy clans of the Spring and Autumn Period had withered because they were too tall and attracted too much wind. Xu Xiao, that crippled butcher, was too ruthless. The Qi Family, which was just a step or two away from becoming a top wealthy clan, had a much more unique advantage. They couldn't become a bird out of the forest, but they also wouldn't be ignored by the new dynasty. Qi Shence knew his own limitations. You can ignore me and say that I'm pretentious because I'm jealous, but you can't ignore the Qi Family behind me.
He didn't expect that the guy would immediately break his facade as soon as he spoke seriously. "You're called Qi Shence? This is the first time I've heard of you. The name is pretty good, but you're not. "
The goat-horned girl originally thought that it was another person who wanted to curry favor with the rich and powerful. She was very disappointed, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but hold her stomach and laugh. She wanted to see the world in chaos. Her petite body rolled around happily in Yu Youwei's arms.
