Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 186
[Chapter 186 Wedding Night]
Manipulating metal is the most basic ability of the Gold Art.
This kind of control is more handy than telekinesis or controlling objects.
When two armies are fighting, if there is a high-level Gold Art user, then cold weapons will not be able to play any role. Therefore, the wars between countries in the past were almost all pure wars of art.
In addition, this ability can also make the body metallized and have extremely strong defense. The ability of the golden body can only harden the body, which is an incomplete version of the Gold Art.
While holding this meteorite iron gun, Lin Xiu also felt that there was a strange power flowing into his body from the gun body, gradually transforming into pure Yuanli.
He quickly cut off the connection between his body and the gun body.
In this way, although the Yuanli can increase, the gun will also be useless.
This ability is cultivated by relying on metal. The best place to cultivate is in a vein with rich reserves. It is a very luxurious and wasteful behavior to cultivate at the cost of damaging weapons.
The abilities of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth are very common. There are many people with the ability of gold in various countries, and there is a great demand for mineral deposits.
Therefore, since ancient times, the disputes among the continental countries over territory have never stopped.
More vast territories mean more abundant resources. In addition to their own territories, countries are also working hard to expand overseas. In ancient times, there have been constant frictions and disputes. It was not until the past hundred years that a consensus was reached on a peaceful ceasefire, shelving disputes, and jointly developing and utilizing them.
This ability can currently provide Lin Xiu with a limited speed of cultivation. He must find a suitable place to quickly improve his cultivation. In any country, the mineral veins are owned by the state, and in unowned areas, the mineral deposits belong to the five dynasties. No one can use the mineral veins for cultivation privately.
This is not a problem for Lin Xiu. He can escape underground and use the mineral veins deep underground that others have not discovered. Anyway, no one can use those resources except him.
After quietly obtaining the ability of the female classmate, Lin Xiu returned to the Abnormal Arts Academy and pretended to accidentally bump into a few people while walking. When he came into physical contact with those people, the power in his body never reacted again.
It seems that his guess was correct. Flying and telekinesis, golden body and golden abnormal arts are of the same category. He
can continue to obtain other abilities after he breaks through.
However, with the additional two unexpected abilities, his cultivation speed has increased slightly.
Lin Xiu put aside the matter of cultivation for the time being. The dog emperor kept his word, and the imperial edict arrived soon. All the etiquette procedures were also undertaken by the Ministry of Rites.
This was a precedent that had never happened before.
As a result, Ning’er was jealous.
Lin Xiu promised her that when he married her in the future, he would also have such a pomp and circumstance to coax her.
Lin Xiu was confident about this.
The dog emperor must have a time to ask him for help.
When the competition among all the countries came, Lin Xiu would make this request to him again, and exchange the top ten of the Tianjiao list for an imperial edict, and see if he would change or not. If he didn’t change, he would withdraw from the competition. Anyway, there would be another chance in three years.
Ministry of Rites.
Lin Xiu and the doctor of the Ministry of Rites were already very familiar with each other. Regarding the procedures and etiquette of the ceremony, the two still had to make a final discussion.
The doctor of the Ministry of Rites said: “Lord Lin, there are rules for taking concubines. The sedan chair of the concubine cannot enter through the main gate, and the wedding dress cannot be worn in red, but can only be pink. When worshiping in the hall, you cannot worship the heaven and
earth parents…” Lin Xiu waved his hand and said: “Don’t tell me about the rules. The sedan chair must enter through the main gate, and the wedding dress must also be worn in red. The heaven and earth parents must be worshipped. Just do what I say.”
The doctor of the Ministry of Rites had long experienced Lin Xiu’s stubbornness, and could only let him do what he wanted.
In fact, the reason why the rules of taking concubines are so complicated is to establish the status of wives and concubines. If the etiquette of taking concubines is the same as that of the wife, how can the wife suppress the concubine in the future?
But this problem does not exist in the Lin Mansion at all.
Who has the ability to suppress Zhao Lingjun?
His actions can only show his love and pity for his concubine.
However, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites still couldn’t figure it out.
Someone actually married Zhao Lingjun and still wanted to take a concubine. He was really greedy…
…
On this day, the East City of the royal capital was particularly lively.
The emperor’s marriage was occasionally seen, but it was the first time that people heard that the emperor had to grant a marriage to take a concubine. Especially the newlyweds at the wedding were the hotly discussed figures in the royal capital in recent days. This wedding has become a hot topic among the people before it even started.
In the wine shop and teahouse, someone said indignantly: “How can this kid have such a good life? With a wife like Miss Zhao, he can even take a concubine. How many good things did he do in his previous life?”
Someone said: “He has done a lot of good things in this life. As a son of a powerful noble, in order to help the people, he did not hesitate to offend the top powerful nobles. When the Wuji Kingdom came to provoke, didn’t he also turn the tide and defeat the opponent, saving the face of my Daxia…”
The man sighed and said, “I feel sorry for Miss Zhao. If I could marry Miss Zhao, I would promise not to look at another woman in this life. Why doesn’t he know how to cherish her…”
If someone else took a concubine, people would not care at all, but the one who took a concubine was Zhao Lingjun’s husband, and Zhao Lingjun took the initiative to take a concubine for him, which was very shocking.
To be able to marry the top of the Tianjiao list is already a blessing from the previous life, and to be able to let two women share one husband, some people dare not even dream of such a dream, but some people have really realized it.
This makes countless people envious and jealous.
Not only that, he is also a student of the Tianzi Academy of the Martial Arts Academy and the Yishu Academy. This has never happened since the two academies were established. A year ago, he was still an unknown guy, and a year later, he became a genius that everyone is paying attention to, and his name is famous in the capital.
…
Lin Xiu’s wedding residence.
The ceremony has been carried out for the most part.
After paying respect to the heaven and earth and parents, Caiyi poured another cup of tea, half-knelt in front of Zhao Lingjun, and said, “Sister, please have some tea.”
Concubines must offer tea to the wife. Only with the approval of the wife can they be considered truly admitted. Zhao Lingjun picked up the teacup and took a sip, which meant that she accepted her.
The people watching the ceremony outside also sighed.
“If you want to marry a wife, you should marry someone like Miss Zhao.”
“Why doesn’t my jealous woman have the broad mind of Miss Zhao?”
“I really envy Lord Lin…”
Outstanding talent, respected by His Majesty, happy marriage, and surrounded by women, this is the life that many people dream of?
At the banquet outside, Chen Peipei touched Li Baizhang with her arm and asked, “Are you envious of him too?”
Of course Li Baizhang envied him. He married Zhao Lingjun, stole Xue Ning’er’s heart, lived with Qin Wan, and could openly take someone else as a concubine. Who wouldn’t envy him?
But he still showed a righteous look on his face, and said: “I don’t envy him, not at all. Although we have a good relationship, he and I are different. Have you seen other women around me?”
Chen Peipei said: “That’s right. I really don’t know how you two can become friends with such different personalities.”
Zhao Lingyin and Princess Minghe glanced at him with extreme contempt. On the other side, Qin Wan looked at the big red lantern with the word “囍” on the corridor and drank a glass of wine alone. She didn’t know what she was thinking.
…
After sending all the guests away, Lin Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and walked to a door, but did not go in immediately.
Last time, it was also such an occasion. The red carpet, lanterns, red candles, and even the layout of the house were almost exactly the same. When he pushed open the door, there was no one in the room.
This time, Lin Xiu pushed open the door and saw a woman wearing a veil and a wedding dress sitting quietly by the bed.
Looking at that figure, Lin Xiu’s heart was completely settled.
He walked to the bed and gently lifted the red cloth. The woman under the veil had a shy face and looked at Lin Xiu with shy eyes.
At this moment, it was like a dream.
Looking into her shy eyes, Lin Xiu felt that the missing part of his life was complete at this moment.
He used to be extremely afraid of marriage, but now he felt that this was such a wonderful thing.
He took the two wine glasses on the table, and he and Caiyi each held a cup, with their arms around each other, and the wine in the cup went into their throats. The two looked at each other, their eyes were a little intoxicated.
Caiyi put her head on Lin Xiu’s chest, with crystal flashes in her eyes.
Lin Xiu embraced her slender waist, picked her up, and gently put her on the bed.
Caiyi closed her eyes, and her pretty face was full of blush.
The candle in the room suddenly went out. After a moment, Lin Xiu felt as if he had come to the south of the Yangtze River, with spring breeze blowing on his face, warm sunshine, and flowers blooming. He smelled a faint fragrance in his nose, and there were countless birds singing happily in his ears… At the
same time, in a room somewhere in the inner house.
Zhao Lingjun ran out of the room in a panic, flew up in a hurry, and disappeared into the vast night sky.
