Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 100
[Chapter 100 I can be a little]
The ring battle is over.
The eleventh person in Tianziyuan, the martial arts genius named Lin Xiu, brought everyone a wonderful competition.
All the students of the martial arts academy who watched the competition today have deeply engraved this wonderful scene in their hearts and will never forget it.
As expected, none of the geniuses in Tianziyuan are simple.
That man, they are willing to call him the fastest man in the martial arts academy.
Today, Lin Xiu taught all of them a lesson.
This one-on-eight competition made them realize something.
In the martial arts, nothing is indestructible, only speed can’t be broken.
A person who has just drawn in the qi will not have too strong true qi, but relying on the word “fast”, he swept the heroes, which is really thought-provoking.
When the other ten people from Tianziyuan came down from the ring, they were a little dejected. They were hit by Lin Xiu. They were obviously of the same age, but the gap between people was so big that it could not be made up.
This kind of speed and reaction, they can’t have it unless they are at the ground level.
Vice Dean Chen walked up to them, and seeing their looks, he comforted them and said, “Don’t be discouraged. His talent in fighting is indeed unmatched, but his true qi is far inferior to yours. With your current strength, it is difficult to meet him, but his true qi is too weak and cannot break your defense.”
After hearing what Vice Dean Chen said, several people immediately became excited.
Yes, warriors have their own strengths. Among them, some are good at footwork, some are good at weapons, some have extraordinary martial arts, and some have strong true qi. Although Lin Xiu’s strengths are long enough, his weaknesses are too short. What’s the use of having a fighting talent? If his true qi is too weak, it’s still useless…
It can be said that he has nothing except speed.
Vice Dean Chen saw their expressions and knew what they were thinking. He spoke again, “But don’t be happy too early. His teacher said that Lin Xiu’s talent for cultivation is also very high. If you don’t work hard, he will catch up with you sooner or later. At that time, you really can’t be his opponent in one move.”
Vice Dean Chen’s words made several people’s hearts lift again.
That person was really too fast. If his true qi caught up, they would have no advantage at all. For a moment, these geniuses felt a sense of urgency. As soon as they left the training ground, they took the initiative to find their own teachers to practice.
At this time, Emperor Xia and Concubine Shu and Concubine Gui also left the martial arts academy.
Emperor Xia had been silent since just now, and his face was not looking good.
When entering the harem, Concubine Shu asked, “Your Majesty, what are you thinking about? You don’t seem very happy…”
Emperor Xia let out a sigh and said, “The son of the Earl of Ping’an surprises me. I didn’t expect that he has average talent in supernatural arts, but such a high talent in martial arts. Chen Qing’s evaluation of him is not inferior to that of the genius of the Zhao family…”
Concubine Shu smiled and said, “Your Majesty should be happy that Great Xia has another martial arts genius. Why do you look unhappy instead?”
Emperor Xia shook his head and said, “If only things were that simple. The one from the Zhao family will surely have limitless achievements in the future. Although the one from the Lin family showed his talent a little late, he will surely grow up in time. By then, the two strong forces will join forces and it will be difficult to hinder them…”
He hopes that Lin Xiu will marry Zhao Lingjun, but he doesn’t want their family to have two super strong people in the future.
Concubine Shu blinked and asked, “Your Majesty, do you not want the Lin and Zhao families to fulfill their engagement?”
Emperor Xia breathed a sigh of relief and said, “It’s not that simple. Once the engagement between the Lin and Zhao families is cancelled, she will marry into another big family. And Lin Xiu, this boy, is so handsome and has such a high talent in martial arts. If there is no engagement, he will definitely be fought over by other families. Won’t there be two families that will become powerful in the future?”
After visiting the martial arts academy, Emperor Xia suddenly felt a headache.
If Lin Xiu marries Zhao Lingjun, a new family will surely rise in the future.
If Lin Xiu does not marry Zhao Lingjun, the two families will be even more powerful.
He was in a dilemma.
Although he was the emperor, he could not force the two geniuses to die alone.
He sighed lightly. This was not okay, and that was not okay. The job of the emperor was really not for a human being…
Zhao Lingjun was already the most famous genius on the continent. He could no longer force her to do anything. Even if he wanted her to marry into the royal family, he could only think about it.
As for Lin Xiu, he is still far from grown up. If he is recruited into the royal family, it would be a good solution.
At that time, the Zhao family will not only not hate him, but will be grateful.
And in the royal family, the only princess of the same age as Lin Xiu seems to be Minghe…
This thought flashed through his mind and was rejected by him.
Defei died early, and Minghe grew up alone in the harem. Her life experience was already very miserable. He didn’t want her to get involved in these struggles again.
But soon, he thought of another thing and wondered, “From what I know about this kid, he usually acts cautiously. Why is he so arrogant today? This is unlike him…”
Zhu Jin, who had been silent, said, “Your Majesty, I think so too. Lin Xiu is usually very cunning, but he is a little too abnormal today. Is he doing it on purpose for Your Majesty to see?”
Emperor Xia asked curiously, “Why did he do this?”
Zhu Jin said, “According to the investigation of the Secret Investigation Department, Lin Xiu, the son of the Earl of Ping’an, practices hard, has a kind nature, and has many advantages, but he has one biggest disadvantage.”
Emperor Xia asked, “What disadvantage?”
Zhu Jin said, “He is very lustful.”
As soon as he finished speaking, two eyes fell on him.
One was Emperor Xia, and the other was King Qin.
Emperor Xia glanced at him and asked, “As a man, is lust a shortcoming?”
Zhu Jin seemed to realize something and slapped himself lightly on the face and said quickly, “No, no, no, I was wrong. I was talking about characteristics. Characteristics, Lin Xiu’s characteristic is lust. The Secret Investigation Department investigated him and found that he always went to a theater and got close to an actor in the theater. He often stayed in the actor’s room for an hour. In addition, he often went to the Imperial Hospital to find a female doctor. Not only that, the daughter of Duke Xue’s mansion also often appeared beside Lin Xiu. A secret detective saw that the two had been in Kissing on the street…”
Emperor Xia pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up, and asked, “What do you mean…”
Zhu Jin said, “He deliberately exposed his talent. Who is the genius of the Zhao family? If he marries the one from the Zhao family, he will probably have to break off relations with the other women. He is so lustful, how could he tolerate such a thing happening? Therefore, he doesn’t want to marry Zhao Lingjun at all. This person is smart and clever. He must know that Your Majesty will not allow two powerful people with unlimited future to get married. He did this today just to let Your Majesty issue an order to cancel the engagement between the Lin and Zhao families…”
Li Baizhang glanced at Zhu Jin and said nothing.
Emperor Xia looked at Li Baizhang and asked, “Zhang’er, you and Lin Xiu are close friends. Does he think so?”
Li Baizhang didn’t want to betray Lin Xiu, but he couldn’t lie in front of his father. He nodded helplessly and said, “Yes, he didn’t want to marry the one from the Zhao family from the beginning.”
Concubine Shu looked at her son and saw more in his eyes. A look of pity appeared on her face.
She looked at Emperor Xia and said, “Since your majesty doesn’t want the Lin and Zhao families to marry, and the child doesn’t like this marriage, why not issue an order to cancel the engagement.”
Emperor Xia smiled and said, “No, if that’s the case, I will not only not cancel the marriage, but when the Zhao family’s genius returns to Beijing, I will personally grant them marriage, and all the expenses of their wedding will be undertaken by the court…”
He knew very well that the Zhao family’s genius must be dissatisfied with this kind of marriage.
Otherwise, she would not have been practicing outside all these years and would not even go home.
If Lin Xiu also rejected this marriage, then this marriage contract would be even more necessary to fulfill.
Appearance is close but the heart is far away, sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams – in this world, I’m afraid no one knows better than him what kind of feeling this is. What
‘s more, compared with other wealthy families, the Lin and Zhao families can be said to have no foundation. Even if there are two strong people in the family, it is better than them each joining a real wealthy family.
No matter what the reason is, fulfilling this marriage contract as soon as possible is the best choice at the moment.
At this time, the imperial concubine, who had not spoken, waved her sleeves and said lightly, “I’m tired, I’m going back to the palace first!”
After that, she strode away with her pet in her arms.
Concubine Shu looked into Emperor Xia’s eyes, sighed softly, and said nothing more.
But after returning to the palace, she looked at her son beside her and said softly, “It’s not easy to live in the palace. You’ve suffered a lot.”
Li Baizhang smiled and said, “Don’t worry, mother. I’m fine.”
Then he changed the subject and said, “Lin Xiu is a very secretive guy. I’ve taken martial arts classes with him for several months, but I didn’t know he had such a good talent for martial arts…”
Shufei just smiled and said, “Knowing too many secrets is not always a good thing. Everyone has some secrets that they don’t want others to know. Even if they are your best friends or closest lovers, don’t try to pry into them. Lin Xiu is a very good kid and a friend worth making close friends with.”
Li Baizhang smiled and said, “I know…”
…
In the martial arts academy, Lin Xiu and Xue Ning’er walked out side by side. Xue Ning’er turned around to look at him from time to time and said, “Lin Xiu, you are really amazing. I also have to practice hard, otherwise I will be left further behind by you…”
Lin Xiu smiled and said, “You should practice hard…”
Lin Xiu was almost certain that Xue Ning’er’s talent for practice would not be too bad, because the talent for special arts was hereditary.
Simply put, the talent of the ancestors will affect the descendants. If someone in the ancestors had awakened the ability of the supernatural power, the probability of the descendants awakening the ability will be greater. If the ancestors have strong supernatural talents, the descendants are also likely to have supernatural geniuses.
Of course, this kind of inheritance is not continuous. Sometimes it will skip generations, and sometimes it will skip several generations.
The reason why those big families that have lasted for hundreds of years can be so glorious for so long is because the descendants of the family are strong. It can be said that most of the powerful people in Daxia, even if they are now declining, must have had glorious ancestors.
The Lin family is of course no exception. Some families are already on the verge of decline, and suddenly one or two descendants with strong supernatural talents appear, and they will rise again, such as the Zhao family.
There are also some families that have not had geniuses for many years, and even the incense will be cut off, and naturally there is no hope of making a comeback.
For the whole society, this is actually not fair.
The reason why the powerful are powerful is because of the family talent. Their ancestors are strong, and their descendants are also likely to give birth to geniuses, and the family can continue from generation to generation.
The reason why commoners are commoners is because their ancestors did not have special skills, or their special skills were not very talented. The possibility of the younger generation giving birth to a genius in special skills is also very small. Occasionally, they will appear, but their talents will be buried due to the lack of famous teachers.
Lin Xiu just sighed about this. He now urgently wants to know what Emperor Xia thinks after watching the battle just now.
When he and Xue Ning’er left the palace, he happened to meet Li Baizhang, who looked at Lin Xiu with a very regretful look.
Lin Xiu had a bad premonition in his heart and asked, “Why are you looking at me like this?”
Li Baizhang said, “You think very well. You want to show your martial arts talent in front of your father, so that your father will be afraid and cancel your engagement with the Zhao family…”
Xue Ning’er’s beautiful eyes widened. The friend next to Lin Xiu turned out to be a prince!
But she soon put this matter behind her and showed surprise.
Lin Xiu wants to cancel her engagement with the Zhao family?
Is this true!
Doesn’t it mean that she still has a chance?
Lin Xiu asked tentatively, “So, Your Majesty, are you going to cancel our engagement?”
Li Baizhang shook his head and said, “Your thoughts have been seen through. Father said that when Miss Zhao comes back, you will be granted marriage, and all wedding expenses will be borne by the court.”
All his efforts went down the drain, and Lin Xiu felt his head buzzing. He looked at Li Baizhang and asked, “Did you betray me?”
Li Baizhang shook his head and said, “It was Zhu Jin. You underestimated the Secret Investigation Department. Zhu Jin guessed your thoughts and told the father. The father was very happy and thought it would be best for you to marry Miss Zhao…” Lin Xiu
wanted to kill someone.
Kill the old eunuch who talked too much.
Some people were sad, and some were happy.
Lin Xiu was very sad, but Xue Ning’er was very happy. She looked at Lin Xiu with a smile and said, “So you don’t like Zhao Lingjun…”
Lin Xiu glanced at her and said unhappily, “Then you have no chance. Didn’t you see what his majesty said? I have to marry her even if I don’t want to, and no one can change that…”
Xue Ning’er said indifferently, “It’s too pitiful to marry someone you don’t like. Why don’t you marry me? I can be your mistress…”
The Xue family’s only precious daughter was to be someone’s concubine. Even if Zhao Lingjun was willing, the Xue family would not be willing. Lin Xiu rolled her eyes at her and said, “Give up this idea. Will your family let you be someone’s concubine?”
Xue Ning’er thought about it and it seemed that they really wouldn’t. Even if the prince wanted to marry her, he had to be the principal wife.
She frowned and thought for a while, then her beautiful eyebrows relaxed and she said, “Then I won’t get married. As long as Zhao Lingjun is not at home, I will secretly look for you, or you can buy a house outside to support me. If you have no money, I can buy it…”
Lin Xiu was already annoyed enough, and Xue Ning’er was still making trouble for her. He didn’t plan to send her home. He almost forgot that when the imperial concubine left just now, she gave him a look, and he still had to go to Changchun Palace.
When passing by the central palace, a figure came from the front.
Zhu Jin took the initiative to greet Lin Xiu and said, “Mr. Lin, are you going to see the imperial concubine?”
“Bah!”
Lin Xiu glared at him and spat on the ground.
This chapter has 4,000 words, and there is still one chapter to go, which will be later…
