Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 167
[Chapter 167 Who is not a powerful person?]
Early in the morning, in the harem.
The prince went to Yongning Palace to pay his respects to the queen with two dark circles under his eyes.
He did not sleep all night yesterday.
He was angry.
The last time the East Palace was robbed, his savings of many years were stolen by the damn thieves. His mother gave him another 10,000 taels of silver. In order to recover a little loss, he invested all of it in this batch of magic powder.
As a result, this batch of magic powder was also stolen yesterday.
He lost another 10,000 taels.
The prince of the Great Xia Dynasty was actually penniless. Who would believe it if he told others, but it was the fact.
He wanted to cut the thief into pieces, but he didn’t even know who the thief was. He even found nothing when investigating the traitor in the East Palace. Now everyone looked like a traitor to him.
On the way to Yongning Palace, the prince saw Lin Xiu again, which made his already anxious heart even more anxious.
Lin Xiu greeted the prince from a distance and said, “Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn’t look well. You are the crown prince of a country, so you must take care of yourself!”
The prince forced a smile on his face, and left in a hurry without even saying a word.
Lin Xiu walked slowly towards Changchun Palace with a smile on her face.
A moment later, the imperial concubine stood by the garden pruning branches, and her eyes occasionally looked at Lin Xiu who was playing with the pet. For some reason, the little guy liked Lin Xiu the most besides being close to her.
One person and one beast, they were having a lot of fun playing there.
The little guy flew around Lin Xiu, and called him “meow meow meow” from time to time.
Lin Xiu also responded with “meow meow meow”.
To outsiders, it seemed that Lin Xiu was playing with the pet, but in fact they were communicating.
The little guy was surprised and said, “Oh, you can speak our language. Are you really not one of our tribe?”
Lin Xiu asked, “Are there any tigers in your tribe that can turn into humans?”
It suddenly said, “No…”
After a moment, the little guy lay in Lin Xiu’s arms and said, “I miss my father and mother so much.”
Lin Xiu looked down at it and asked, “Do you remember where your home is?”
The imperial concubine had wanted to let the little guy go, but this is the capital. Even if it was released, it would be caught by others. It would only be safe if it stayed with her.
The little guy said, “It’s in a very big forest…”
Lin Xiu sighed. It should be impossible to expect it to tell the specific location. In the future, he will pay attention to where there is news of strange beasts like it. Sending it home is also the imperial concubine’s wish.
When leaving Changchun Palace, the imperial concubine handed Lin Xiu a sign and said, “Give this sign to Caiyi. Take her with you when you enter the palace next time.”
The imperial concubine and Caiyi are really as close as sisters now.
Every time she left the palace, no matter where she went, she would always bring Caiyi with her. She also gave Caiyi a lot of her old jewelry and clothes. It must be said that Caiyi’s ability and personality made her popular with both men and women.
If it weren’t for Lin Xiu’s foresight to ask the dog emperor for two secret agents to protect her, she would probably be entangled by countless bees and butterflies.
Lihua Garden, in Caiyi’s room.
Caiyi’s slender legs were tightly together, her arms were crossed, and she had nowhere to put them. She looked at Lin Xiu with a red face and asked, “Isn’t it too strange to wear like this?” What
she wore today was not a common dress.
Compared with the clothes she usually wore, this dress had no sleeves and was very close-fitting. After putting it on, her chest was raised high, her waist was tightened, and the side hems were split on both sides. When she walked, her smooth calves would be exposed. Overall, the curves of a woman’s figure were exposed. If it weren’t for Lin Xiu, she would never wear it like this in front of outsiders.
This cheongsam with a white background and blue flowers was worn on Caiyi, and Lin Xiu couldn’t bear to look away.
This is the kind of dress that is suitable for Caiyi. The graceful and elegant demeanor of a Jiangnan woman immediately emanates from her inside out.
Lin Xiu held her hand, let her sit on his lap, and said, “There is nothing strange about this dress. This dress is very suitable for you. I like it very much.”
Caiyi blushed and said, “If you like it, I will wear it for you often.”
Although this dress is a bit embarrassing to wear, it is nothing if you wear it for someone you like.
Caiyi’s beautiful voice, when she talks about love, will make people feel soft to the bone. In addition, most of the Yuanjing that Lin Xiu got from the prince was used to improve her cultivation, and she spent tens of thousands of taels of silver. Now she has broken through the lower realm of the Xuan level, and her voice is even more seductive. The
sound art will only have a qualitative change after awakening four times. At that time, she can draw strength from the sounds of the outside world like Lin Xiu, and the speed of cultivation will be faster than now. After
a long time, Lin Xiu left Lihua Garden.
Caiyi in cheongsam was so charming that he could hardly control himself. At first, he sat on the chair, but later, he sat on the bed, and then he lay on the bed…
Caiyi was different from Qin Wan. Qin Wan said that she would let him do whatever he wanted, but it was all a trick.
But Caiyi, she was really ready to give him everything, and he could do whatever he wanted to Caiyi.
The reason why he hadn’t taken the final step was that he was still waiting for a chance to give her a name. Lin Xiu planned to talk to Zhao Lingjun about this matter the next time they met.
After leaving Lihua Pavilion, Lin Xiu was about to go to the martial arts academy when he suddenly saw a group of people gathered on the street. Among the crowd was a figure that he was very familiar with.
The streets of the royal capital.
An old man was lying on the ground with blood all over his head. Beside him, two bamboo baskets of apples were scattered all over the ground, some of which had been trampled. A nobleman was full of anger and cursed: “Old thing, you don’t have eyes when you walk!”
He was about to kick the old man a few more times, but was stopped by someone. Liu Qingfeng said with a gloomy face: “Zhang Huai, you bumped into this old man first, and beat him in the street. If you don’t stop, don’t blame me for being rude!”
The nobleman looked at Liu Qingfeng, and after a moment of stunned, a half-smile appeared on his face, and he said: “It turned out to be you, the guy abandoned by his fiancee. What, do you want to hit me?”
He took the initiative to walk a few steps closer to Liu Qingfeng, stretched his head over, and said: “Come on, hit here, if I hide, I won’t be named Zhang.”
Liu Qingfeng’s forehead was bulging with blue veins, his fists were clenched, and finally slowly loosened.
He couldn’t do anything to this person.
The other party was a powerful person. If a commoner did something to a powerful person, the crime would be aggravated and he would be punished severely.
Although he was the head of the Qingli Division, he was only an eighth-rank official. The consequence of taking action against this person was to lose his official position. He was not greedy for power, but once he became a commoner, he would be even more powerless to resist Zhang Huai’s revenge.
Zhang Huai had already retaliated against him once. That time, his life turned from light to darkness, and his mother fell ill and could not withstand his second revenge.
Zhang Huai looked at Liu Qingfeng, who was standing there without any movement, and sneered: “You are a coward. No wonder even your fiancée ran away with me. But I didn’t want her a long time ago. If you don’t mind, you can still marry her back…”
Liu Qingfeng’s breathing was heavy, and his eyes were full of bloodshot, but he still stood there, motionless.
Zhang Huai didn’t even look at him, raised his foot and kicked the old man again, saying coldly: “Old man, watch your step next time…”
His kick did not hit the old man, because someone’s foot was faster.
Zhang Huai flew into the air, flew a foot away, and fell heavily to the ground.
Another young man walked out from behind him, looked at him coldly, and said, “How dare you commit violence in the street and insult the officials of the Qingli Division under the feet of the emperor? Do you really think that there is no one in my Qingli Division?”
The son of the powerful was too arrogant. Not only did he beat the old man in the street, he even ignored the officials of the Qingli Division. The onlookers dared not speak out, and they were pleased to see this man kicked away.
Some people hiding behind couldn’t help but cheer.
“Good fight!”
“What’s the point of bullying an old man?”
“People like this deserve to be beaten!”
…
“Lord Lin!” Liu Qingfeng was delighted when he saw Lin Xiu, but then his face suddenly changed and he said, “Lord Lin, he is the son of a rich and powerful family, you can’t touch him!”
“Son of a rich and powerful family?” Lin Xiu glanced at the nobleman who was curled up on the ground and wailing not far away, and said lightly, “Who isn’t?”
At this time, the four followers following Zhang Huai reacted. Two of them hurriedly went to support Zhang Huai, and the other two blocked Lin Xiu one after the other. The man in front was furious and said, “How dare you, who are you to beat up the son of the first-class Anhua Earl!” Lin
Xiu looked at the man coldly, and said with a full of dandy atmosphere, “How dare you, who are you? My father is the first-class Ping’an Earl, how dare you talk to this young master like this!”
The two were stunned when they heard this, and they really didn’t dare to speak.
Ping’an Earl was a rich and powerful person of the same level as their master. When the two young masters had a conflict, how dare they, as servants, intervene?
Lin Xiu found that he liked the feeling of being a dandy more and more.
A dandy could beat someone up in the street just because someone looked at him a little too much. When he went to the government office, it was the person who was punished.
A dandy could also force others to lend money, and then take the opportunity to win it back. When they couldn’t pay it back, he would force them to use their sister and daughter to pay off the debt.
After the dandy committed a crime, he only needed to say “My father is the Earl of Ping’an” and the other party would not dare to act rashly.
He finally experienced the happiness of the dandies.
However, the onlookers obviously didn’t think so.
They gathered around Lin Xiu and talked about it.
“This kick is so satisfying!”
“This young man is so handsome and upright!”
“Isn’t the son of the Earl of Ping’an the husband of the Zhao family’s Tianjiao?”
“That’s him. A few days ago, I saw Miss Zhao walking around with him arm in arm. They are really a perfect match!”
“He is worthy of being Miss Zhao’s husband…”
…
Lin Xiu was depressed. He did good things, but it was Zhao Lingjun who was praised. When will people start calling Zhao Lingjun Lin Xiu’s wife?
