Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 54
[Chapter 54 Who is talking?]
The goddess of fate finally favored Lin Xiu.
He bought ten Yuanjing with one thousand taels of silver, and finally when he got the last one, he broke through the shackles.
The Yuanli had undergone a qualitative change, and his abilities were naturally very different from before.
What surprised Lin Xiu the most was that after the qualitative change of Yuanli, the improvement of various abilities was really synchronized.
Now Lin Xiu can freeze the ground within a ten-foot range of his body in an instant, and his strength has also ushered in a surge, and he can easily lift the stone lock that he couldn’t lift before.
The volume of the portable space has increased tenfold, and the most obvious change is the ability to speak animal language. In the past, Lin Xiu could only understand their words, but now, he can use his ability to communicate with animals and let his voice sound directly in their minds.
Da Huang was his first experimental subject. Now, he has become Lin Xiu’s eyeliner, helping him monitor all suspicious people around the Lin Mansion.
Under normal circumstances, who would pay attention to a dog?
After returning from Xue Ning’er’s birthday party, Lin Xiu didn’t leave the house once for seven consecutive days.
He asked Sun Dali to ask for leave from the Yishu Academy. He stayed at home every day, never went out of the front door or the back door, never met Miss Shuangshuang, and never went to Lihua Garden.
To be honest, such a day made Lin Xiu feel uncomfortable.
But there should be someone who is more uncomfortable than him.
Tianxiang Tower.
Yang Xuan sat on a chair in a private room. A young man stood in front of him and said helplessly: “Sir, I have arranged everything according to your instructions, just waiting for Lin Xiu to go out, but he has been staying at home these days and has not even walked out of the house…”
Yang Xuan’s expression was calm. He took a sip of the teacup and said lightly: “Wait, he will come out eventually. I want to see how long he can hide.”
Lin Mansion.
Lin Xiu sat in the yard, holding his chin with one hand, and the word “bored” was clearly written on his face.
He was waiting for someone.
The person who came might be Miss Shuangshuang, or maybe it was Li Zongguan, or some other Zongguan. Calculating the time, they should be here.
After waiting for more than an hour, a burst of light footsteps came from outside his small courtyard.
Before Miss Shuangshuang entered the courtyard and opened her mouth, Lin Xiu took the initiative to ask: “Did the Imperial Concubine ask you to come? The pet’s illness has recurred again?”
Miss Shuangshuang’s beautiful eyes widened, her mouth slightly opened, and she asked in surprise: “Mr. Lin, how did you know?”
Of course Lin Xiu knew, and he had been waiting for her at home since the past two days.
The Imperial Concubine’s pet was suffering from a heart disease. The last time Lin Xiu and Shuangshuang took it out of the palace, it only temporarily relieved its depression symptoms, which could only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. After
a long time, it will return to a depressed state.
And by that time, even if it is taken out of the palace again, it will not have the same effect as the first time. The Imperial Concubine’s pet was a gift from her deceased mother and has a very special meaning to her, so she will definitely think of Lin Xiu again.
After returning to the Imperial Hospital last time, Bai Shuangshuang has been thinking about a question.
Why are all the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital helpless in treating the Imperial Concubine’s pet, but Mr. Lin, who has not learned much medical skills, can always find the key to the problem.
Later, she figured it out. The imperial physician treats people, while Master Lin treats hearts. His medical skills are not reflected in his supernatural powers or medicine prescriptions, but in his exquisite heart.
He can put himself in the patient’s shoes and make accurate inferences, even if his patient is just a spirit beast.
Even without her speaking, he can guess her intentions. It seems that everything is under his control, which makes Bai Shuangshuang admire him even more.
Lin Xiu did not explain too much to her, but smiled slightly and said, “Let’s go.”
After taking a few steps, Lin Xiu’s footsteps suddenly stopped again and said, “Miss Shuangshuang, go back to the palace first and wait for me at the Imperial Hospital. I will be there soon.”
Miss Shuangshuang nodded and left the Lin Mansion alone.
Not long after, a figure walked out of the back door of the Lin Mansion slowly, crossed several alleys, walked out from a certain alley, and walked leisurely towards the direction of the palace.
Opposite the Lin residence, on the second floor of a teahouse, a man with dark circles under his eyes leaned out of the window, looked at the gate of the Lin residence, and gritted his teeth and said, “It’s been a few days, why hasn’t he come out yet…”
What he didn’t know was that while he was looking at the Lin residence, a yellow dog on the corner of the street was also looking at him.
Da Huang was staring at the second floor of the teahouse while thinking about something.
Could the master be a dog? Otherwise, how could he speak dog language?
With its dog brain, it couldn’t figure out these things for the time being.
If it couldn’t figure it out, don’t think about it. It only knew that it had to listen to the master and report any unexpected situation near the house to the master as soon as possible…
Not long after, the Imperial Hospital.
Without the job of making ice in the harem, Lin Xiu had no way to enter there again. It was a capital crime for outsiders to trespass into the harem without permission.
After all, most of the people living there were the emperor’s wives. The emperor was also a man, and he was the man with the highest status and position in Daxia. It was impossible for him to tolerate a green grassland above his head.
Miss Shuangshuang was already waiting for Lin Xiu in the Imperial Hospital. When she saw him, she immediately said, “Mr. Lin, let’s go to Changchun Palace quickly. His Majesty and the Imperial Concubine are waiting there.”
Lin Xiu was shocked: “His Majesty is here too?”
He actually didn’t want to see the emperor. Lin Xiu was not from this world. He didn’t have the idea of a monarch and a minister, nor did he have the awareness that
if the monarch wanted the minister to die, the minister had to die. No matter who wanted his life, he would fight to the end.
The emperor was the same, but Lin Xiu now didn’t have the strength to compete with the emperor. His life and death were only in the thoughts of others. Lin Xiu didn’t like this feeling. What if he said something wrong or did something wrong, which made the emperor furious, and no one could save him. It
was obviously impossible to avoid it today. Lin Xiu sorted out his mood and said, “Let’s go.”
A moment later, Changchun Palace.
Lin Xiu and Miss Shuangshuang walked into Changchun Palace. The palace was gloomy. The maids and servants lowered their heads, and several imperial doctors were waiting in front of a palace.
It was only a few days since we last saw each other, but the Imperial Concubine looked much thinner, and the pet in her arms looked dull and listless, even less energetic than last time.
Lin Xiu walked into the courtyard and said to the Imperial Concubine and Emperor Xia who were standing beside him, “Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, the Imperial Concubine…”
When she saw Lin Xiu, the Imperial Concubine’s face brightened up a little, and she walked over quickly and said, “Lin Xiu, come and see, how come Nannan is so weak? I asked someone to take her out of the palace, but she hasn’t gotten any better…”
Lin Xiu took the pet from the Imperial Concubine, and the little guy didn’t resist, and simply closed his eyes.
Emperor Xia looked at Lin Xiu and asked, “Do you know medicine?”
Lin Xiu said, “Your Majesty, I don’t know medicine, but I used to keep cats and dogs at home, and I’ve read some books, so I know a little about the habits of animals.”
Emperor Xia nodded and said, “As long as you can cure the concubine’s pet, I will reward you greatly.”
Lin Xiu said, “I will do my best.”
Lin Xiu held the pet and said to the concubine, “My concubine, the pet is in a bad mood now. I need a quiet room where no one can disturb it.”
The concubine had no doubts and immediately said, “Okay, I will arrange it.”
Soon, Lin Xiu was taken to the side hall of Changchun Palace.
He walked in with the pet, and the concubine stopped at the door. Miss Shuangshuang wanted to follow him in, but Lin Xiu didn’t invite her, so she had to wait outside.
Lin Xiu held the pet in his arms and walked into the room.
It still had its eyes closed, listless, and extremely weak.
Lin Xiu patted its head and said in her heart: “Don’t sleep anymore, get up and play.”
The little thing in her arms startled and immediately opened its eyes, saying in confusion and surprise: “Who, who is talking!”
