Don’t Show the Son

Last night was a sleepless night for many people in the capital.

For example, countless men who gritted their teeth with hatred for Lin Xiu.

For example, the only daughter of the Xue family.

Another example is a certain actor in Lihuayuan.

And the second lady of the Zhao family.

But Lin Xiu was not included.

Last night, he occupied the entire bed by himself, sleeping as he wanted, turning over as he wanted, and when he woke up in the morning, the sun was already high.

He went out alone, ate a drawer of steamed stuffed buns and drank a bowl of porridge at the pretty widow's house, and then went to the School of Different Arts.

When Princess Minghe saw Lin Xiu at the Academy of Different Arts, her hanging heart was finally relieved.

Although he came later than usual, he finally came.

This shows that he is not a guy who is obsessed with sex.

She glanced at Lin Xiu and said, "I thought you wouldn't come today."

Lin Xiu smiled and said: "I was just joking last night. What can be more important than spiritual practice? Let's start early. After I finish, I will go to greet the imperial concubine."

Princess Minghe looked around and asked, "Where's Zhao Lingyin?"

After she finished speaking, a figure walked into the courtyard.

Zhao Lingyin looked haggard. Lin Xiu looked at her and said in surprise, "Lingyin, did you sleep well last night?"

"I'm fine."

Zhao Lingyin shook her head, looked at Lin Xiu, hesitated to speak.

Lin Xiudao: "Your complexion looks very bad, why don't you forget about today, you should go back and have a good rest."

Zhao Lingyin said: "No, let's practice first."

Two quarters of an hour later, Lin Xiu and Princess Minghe finished their practice. Zhao Lingyin glanced at Lin Xiu and said, "You, come with me, I have something to say to you."

Lin Xiu followed her to her room, Zhao Lingyin looked up at him and said, "I'm sorry."

Lin Xiu asked, "What are you sorry for?"

Zhao Lingyin said: "Sister, she slept with me last night..."

Lin Xiu waved her hand and said, "If it's because of her, I don't need to say I'm sorry. In fact, I can understand her very well. Miss Zhao is a generation of talent. Even in any country in the mainland, she will be scrambled by countless forces. Marrying a The son of a mere second-class uncle, I feel wronged for her, don't worry, I know myself."

Zhao Lingyin's lips moved, but she didn't say anything more.

On the wedding night, the bride leaves without saying goodbye, which is a great insult to any man.

She knew that Lin Xiu didn't seem to care, but he must be very sad.

She stayed up all night last night, and now there is only regret in her heart.

She has been trying her best to promote this marriage contract that should not have existed, and it was she who personally pushed Lin Xiu into this abyss.

Xue Ning'er likes him so much, if he married Xue Ning'er, he would be very happy in this life, right?

Lin Xiu found that Lingyin seemed to have misunderstood something.

Although he didn't care about the fact that the bride ran away on the wedding night, he didn't feel that bad either.

Not only is it not uncomfortable, but it is even a little relief.

What a relief.

He never knew how to be someone else's husband.

Caring about her, loving her, pampering her all the time, and cutting off all friends of the opposite sex for her sake?

Lin Xiu didn't know because he had no experience in marriage.

But logically speaking, regardless of men and women, after getting married, abiding by one's own behavior should be the most basic and reasonable requirement of marriage.

Even if Lin Xiu used to be a Neptune, he still has such awareness.

This means that he can no longer flirt with Caiyi, can no longer stick to Xue Ning'er every day, and can no longer miss A Ke's moon, and even Shuangxiu who touches Princess Minghe's palm needs to ask his wife's permission.

But now, he doesn't have to think about these issues.

He doesn't have to think about how to be a good husband.

Because Zhao Lingjun didn't want to be a good wife, she didn't even want to be a wife.

No wife would leave quietly on the wedding night.

She was showing an attitude to Lin Xiu.

Lin Xiu understood her attitude.

He also respects her choice.

...

Royal study.

Emperor Xia was reading a book, a book with color pages and illustrations, and he read it with great interest.

At this time, Zhu Jin walked in quickly and said to him: "Your Majesty, the latest news, last night, Lin Xiu and Zhao Lingjun's bridal chamber was festive night, Zhao Lingjun was not at the wedding residence, Lin Xiu stayed alone all night..."

Emperor Xia closed the book and said pleasantly, "Really?"

Zhu Jindao: "It's absolutely true, Zhao Lingjun only went back at noon today."

Emperor Xia asked, "Where's Lin Xiu?"

Zhu Jindao: "After he got up in the morning, he first went to eat breakfast, then went to practice at the Academy of Different Arts, and now he is watching the spiritual pet of the imperial concubine in Changchun Palace..."

Emperor Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "As I guessed, how could the Zhao family Tianjiao succumb to the fate arranged by others?"

Zhu Jin sighed, and said, "It's just that, Lin Xiu is too pitiful. On the wedding night, the bride ran away. What a humiliation for a man..."

Although Lin Xiu was always very rude to him, and Zhu Jin didn't like him very much, but at this moment, he also felt that Lin Xiu was really pitiful.

Emperor Xia was silent for a moment, and said: "Life is unsatisfactory, nine out of ten, this is his fate, I hope he will not blame me."

Zhu Jin hurriedly said: "Even if His Majesty doesn't grant the marriage, they still have a marriage contract first. For this matter, you can't blame your Majesty. If you want to blame, you can blame the ancestors who made the marriage contract for them..."

"In any case, I owe him a favor." Emperor Xia thought for a while, and said, "I drafted a decree, the second-class Bo Linting, who is sensitive and honest, and has a good nature. He won my heart, and the first-class uncle in Jin Dynasty, as a reward... "

...

Changchun Palace.

Lin Xiu hugged Bai Ling, and gently stroked his back with one hand. The little guy squinted his eyes, looking extremely enjoying it.

The imperial concubine looked at him in surprise, and asked: "You just got married yesterday, why don't you come back to the palace with your wife today?"

Lin Xiu continued to caress the spirit pet, and said with a smile: "I have been forced to familiarize myself with various etiquettes by the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs for the past few days. It has been a long time since I came to see my daughter. Now I have nothing to do, so I come to see her..."

The imperial concubine said: "My daughter is doing well recently, you just got married, you still have to stay with your wife, go back quickly..."

The concubine and empress have said so, and Lin Xiu is not good at staying for long.

When leaving Changchun Palace and passing by Qianqiu Palace, two figures happened to come out of the palace.

It's Li Bozhang and Concubine Shu.

Li Baizhang looked at Lin Xiu in surprise, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Looking into Lin Xiu's eyes, he immediately realized something, his lips moved, but in the end he couldn't say anything, but just looked at him with sympathy.

"I have seen Concubine Shu."

Lin Xiu saluted Concubine Shu, then turned and walked towards the palace gate.

Li Baizhang sighed, and said: "Father shouldn't have given the marriage so early. This marriage has ruined the happiness of many people..."

Concubine Shu just smiled slightly, and said: "Fortune comes and misfortune comes, and misfortune comes and blessings come, who can tell clearly, a good thing may turn into a bad thing, and a bad thing may turn into a good thing, whether it is good or bad, I am afraid only he I know..."

Lin Xiu walked out of the harem and passed through the corridor of the central palace, when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps behind her, Zhu Jin ran over with the imperial decree in her arms, and said, "Lin Xiu stays, I have something good to tell you, Your Majesty has just promoted your father to be First-class uncle, in recent years, your father is the only first-class uncle who has been promoted..."

Lin Xiu nodded and said, "Understood."

Seeing that Lin Xiu didn't look happy at all, Zhu Jin didn't say anything more. He glanced at him sympathetically and said, "Our family still has to go to announce the decree, so we'll go first..."

Although the first-class uncle is still only an earl, his status is not low among all the dignitaries. Father will be very happy when he hears the imperial decree.

Lin Xiu didn't go back home to share the joy with them. After leaving the palace, she went to the Martial Dao Academy to practice.

Xue Ning'er was not here, and Lin Xiu hadn't seen her for many days.

It was winter now, and he had practiced for three hours in the Martial Arts Academy, and the sky had almost completely darkened. When Lin Xiu walked out of the palace, he stood at the gate of the palace, suddenly not knowing where to go.

He couldn't go back to his previous home.

Now that he has a family, he can no longer live with his parents. Even if he goes back, they will definitely ask why. Lin Xiu doesn't want them to worry about him.

After thinking about it, he still returned to the wedding residence given to him by Emperor Xia.

In addition to bestowing a mansion, Emperor Xia also bestowed ten servant girls and ten servants. Lin Xiu didn't trust the servants given by Emperor Xia. He was sure that there must be his eyeliner.

Lin Xiu walked into the gate of the mansion, and several maids immediately said: "I have seen you, son..."

Lin Xiu looked calm and asked, "Is Madam back?"

A maid said: "Madam came back in the afternoon and is now in the West Wing."

The east and west rooms are all for guests. As the host, she should have lived in the main room.

Lin Xiu walked to the door of the West Wing and knocked on the door.

A voice quickly came from the room: "Come in."

Lin Xiu pushed the door open, looked at the beautiful woman sitting at the table, and said calmly, "Miss Zhao, I think we need to talk."

Zhao Lingjun nodded slightly, a chair moved out of nowhere, she stretched out her hand to Lin Xiu, and said, "Sit."

Seeing this, Lin Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly.

This is the first time Lin Xiu has seen Zhao Lingjun's ability to move objects out of thin air. Could it be that her ability is controlling objects?

Soon Lin Xiu denied this possibility.

Controlling objects is a high-level ability after the evolution of flying ability. Zhao Lingjun's ability was not flying when he was young, and it is impossible to control objects now, so there is only one possibility.

Mind power.

Her ability is mind power.

Integrating extreme attack, extreme defense, and unsolvable control, one stands at the pinnacle of thousands of strange arts and possesses infinite possibilities.

As we all know, different magicians divide different magic abilities into four levels: heaven, earth, mysterious, and yellow.

The reason why the ice and fire are heaven-ranked spells is because they have the power of heaven-ranked spells.

And the power of thought is a heavenly level, just because there is no higher level.

Thought power is similar to object control, but not just object control.

After Xue Ning'er's ability evolved, she could also move chairs across the air.

And the power of thought, in addition to moving it, can also turn this chair into powder in an instant.

What Xue Ning'er can do, she can do.

What Xue Ning'er couldn't do, she could do.

No wonder.

No wonder the dog emperor is so afraid of her.

No wonder so many rich and powerful families in the capital want to marry her.

This ability, this talent, as long as she is given time, she will be invincible sooner or later.

But that was before.

Now Lin Xiu is here.

No matter how hard she tries, she will barely be the second in the world.
