The emperor's family raised me in poverty? But I have an innate ability.

Chapter 12: One Day of Reading
"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving."

As soon as the sky was getting light, Su Changqing walked out of the room and headed towards the foot of the green hills.

He finished reading the several books that Teacher Ru gave him yesterday. Although there were not many books, he benefited a lot from them.

The more he knew, the greater his desire for knowledge became, and he gradually came to like the feeling of continuous improvement.

With full motivation, Su Changqing walked briskly out of the village.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, Changqing, go study."

Halfway through the journey, Su Wenlin from next door greeted with a pale face.

"Huh? What happened to Uncle Wenlin? Why is he coughing so badly?"

Su Changqing paused and asked with concern.

Qingshan Village is not big and the relationship between neighbors is very good. Seeing that Uncle Wenlin, who used to be strong, did not look well, he felt a little worried.

"Hey, it's okay. I caught a cold yesterday. I'll be fine in a few days."

Su Wenlin waved his hand and smiled nonchalantly, "Hurry up and go to school. Studying is important. Don't waste time."

"Uncle Wenlin, remember to get more rest. I'm leaving first."

Hearing that it was just a simple cold, Su Changqing breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and greeted him before continuing to walk forward.

But what surprised him was that many people he met along the way in the village were coughing to some extent.

"It's cold in late autumn, so I need to ask my parents to pay more attention."

Su Changqing walked away thinking, "I wonder if Mr. Ru has a recipe for making medicinal stones?"

It didn't take long before the library came into view.

"Master Ru."

Su Changqing shouted and pushed the door open.

Li Qingchen in the study was holding the Wendi Notes given by Su Nan, reading it intently.

He didn't look at Su Changqing, but pointed to the bookshelf full of books in the library and said:

"You should spend the rest of your time reading."

"Of all the things in the world, studying is the simplest and also the most difficult. If you want to achieve something in Confucianism, you must have a vast amount of knowledge as a foundation."

“When you see more and understand more, you will naturally understand the principles and truths of the world.”

"If you don't understand anything, you can always ask me. Remember not to read too much or too fast. You have to truly understand the principles behind a book before you can say you have finished it."

Su Changqing turned around and looked at the bookshelf full of books, and nodded with full motivation.

"I understand, Master. I will read every book carefully."

After saying that, Su Changqing picked up a book at random, found a seat and started reading.

Just like yesterday, he flipped through the book very quickly.

Although he could only read ten lines at a glance, his amazing comprehension enabled him to instantly understand the meaning and truth of every sentence recorded in the book.

Time passed quickly, and the sunlight coming through the window gradually turned golden.

"There is no end to learning. Emperor Wen's attainments in Confucianism and Taoism are truly admirable."

Li Qingchen put away Emperor Wen's essay and stretched lazily.

But when he saw Su Changqing standing beside him, he couldn't help but be stunned.

At this time, the number of books piled up around Su Changqing had reached a terrifying hundreds.

"Did you finish reading all this in one day?" Li Qingchen's eyelids twitched.

These books are not ordinary books circulated on the mainland, but Confucian and Taoist collections in the Holy Academy.

Although it does not involve spiritual practice, the knowledge contained therein is enormous.

Even if the great scholars from the Holy Academy came, they would only read one or two books a day. But Su Changqing read over a hundred books a day?

"Chang Qing."

Li Qingchen couldn't help but speak, interrupting Su Changqing who was reading.

Su Changqing looked up at Li Qingchen blankly.

"This..." This glance made Li Qingchen stand up suddenly, his eyes filled with horror.

At this time, Su Changqing's eyes had a few bloodshot streaks. Although he looked a little tired, his eyes were unusually bright, as if he could see through people's hearts.

In just one day, Su Changqing's temperament had changed significantly.

Not only does he not look like a country bumpkin at all, but he looks very similar to Li Qingchen, like a scholar.

more important!

Li Qingchen's eyes seemed to see through the center of Su Changqing's chest, where there was a very tiny but very pure wisp of gas.

Righteous and upright!

"If you have poetry and books in your belly, you will be elegant. If you read a lot every day, you will feel noble. This is..."

Li Qingchen felt a huge wave of shock in his heart.

It is not surprising that Su Changqing is a student of high moral character at his age. There are many such people in the Holy Academy.

But Su Changqing has only been studying for a few days?
He had never read a book before he was eighteen, but now, in just one day, he could read a book full of righteousness!
"The reincarnation of Emperor Wen?"

Li Qingchen remained silent. He had met many gifted people, but none of them could be compared with Su Changqing.

Su Changqing's understanding was beyond his comprehension.

"No wonder the Su family tried so hard to suppress it."

"If this kind of talent and understanding is not suppressed, I'm afraid it will reach the peak in a very short time."

"By then, if he doesn't have a character that matches his strength, he will probably be ruined."

Li Qingchen took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and then secretly flicked two fingers to extinguish the noble spirit in Su Changqing's chest.

It is not the time for Su Changqing to practice at this time, and Su Nan's plan is to do so in two years.

Furthermore, Su Changqing was not short of this bit of noble spirit. He had already accumulated considerable skills in the sculpture of Emperor Wen.

As long as Su Changqing goes to the Holy Academy, he will inherit it instantly.

Now, we cannot let these trivial matters interrupt Su Changqing’s study plans.

"Ah, is it already 5 p.m.?"

Su Changqing, who had been too absorbed in reading, came to his senses and apologized hastily.

"I'm sorry, teacher. I was so absorbed in my reading that I forgot the time."

Li Qingchen waved his hand, "Studying hard is a good thing, but you also need to combine work with rest."

"You have read well today, but don't slack off. Your foundation is too poor. You need to finish reading these basic books as soon as possible."

When Li Qingchen said these words, he didn't dare to look into Su Changqing's eyes, for fear that he would not be able to continue.

When Su Changqing heard this, he said with a face full of self-blame:
"I am just too stupid. Don't worry, teacher. I will definitely finish reading these books tomorrow!"

Li Qingchen's mouth twitched slightly, and he waved his hand, "Go, come back tomorrow."

He needs to take it easy.

"Yes"

Su Changqing bowed his head and was about to leave, but then he remembered Uncle Wenlin and others he met this morning.

After hesitating for a while, he looked at Li Qingchen and asked:

"Master Ru, do you have a book that can refine medicinal stones?"

"Many people in the village have caught a cold these days. I want to try to learn how to make some cold-dispelling medicine for the villagers."

Li Qingchen was stunned after hearing this. He pointed in the direction of Qingshan Village and said uncertainly:

"The villagers you are talking about are from Qingshan Village?"

"They caught a cold?"

Li Qingchen even thought he had heard it wrong.

The people in Qingshan Village are all very powerful in cultivation, some are at the great king level or at the saint level.

These people actually caught a cold?
