Don’t Show the Son

Outside the royal study.

The Crown Prince, King Qi, and officials from the two parties came out of the hall in disgrace. Just now, they were scolded by His Majesty for a full quarter of an hour.

They scolded them and couldn't even refute them.

The assassination of the geniuses of those countries is not a trivial matter. If it is not done well, a certain dynasty with ulterior motives will take the opportunity to win over these neighboring countries of Daxia. Once they are used by Dayou, the situation of Daxia will become more and more serious in the future. difficult.

It can be said that Lin Xiu's quick solution to the case eliminated a huge crisis in the imperial court.

Lin Xiu's effort to drink a cup of tea solved a difficult problem for the court.

The crown prince and King Qi will only grab women here.

Even taking them along can only be scolded by His Majesty.

In the imperial study room, Emperor Xia looked at Lin Xiu more and more satisfied.

Why isn't he his own son?

Smart, talented, and capable.

Even if the crown prince and King Qi had half his skills, he would not worry about the future of Da Xia.

No, even if the crown prince and King Qi had Lin Xiu's ability to steal his heart, he would be very relieved to steal Fusang or Daluo's Tianjiao to Daxia.

It's a pity that I didn't pass on half of my abilities to them. Instead, I saw another self in Lin Xiu.

He walked up to Lin Xiu and asked, "How did you find the assassin so quickly?"

Lin Xiu explained: "Master Liu of the Cleaning Department has a well-trained dog that can track down the murderer based on the smell. I asked the dog to smell the smell left on the murder weapon, and then took it to search around the capital. , I didn't expect to be lucky, it didn't walk two streets, and it found someone by following the smell. The genius in Beimang thought that the person who died was from Beimang. With his identity, he could not be suspected, so he lived in the place where the crime occurred. The inn two streets away from the scene, cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness..."

Emperor Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Thanks to you, otherwise, this time, the imperial court may fall into Dayou's calculations. Once we have an affair with Beimang and other countries, Dayou will definitely take the opportunity to win them over, and here we are." If we make a big fuss about the matter, then not only will the public opinion be against us, but they may even take advantage of it and deprive us of our qualifications to participate in the Grand Competition. This is not the first time they have used this method..."

Lin Xiu sighed: "Miss Qianye was assassinated twice, and they were also responsible for it. As a big country, their methods are too low."

Emperor Xia said slowly: "They have many tricks. We must always be on guard. I have also entrusted you with the two cases of the Western Regions and Nanyue. We must find out the murderer and give the two countries an explanation. You failed to plot against us, but it also gave us a chance to completely stabilize the relationship between the surrounding countries..."

He didn't say any more, but said: "I'm in a good mood today, let's have a drink with me."

Not allowing Lin Xiu to refuse, he ordered the imperial dining room to bring some side dishes and a jar of wine.

The wine is from Hongniju, but not too much.

The two had just sat down when Emperor Xia caught a glimpse of the door of the imperial study room, a figure was poking his head, and immediately beckoned: "Minghe, come in and help Emperor Father pour wine..."

Princess Minghe originally went to the Lin Manor to look for Lin Xiu Shuangxiu, but when she heard that he was called into the palace by her father, she waited and waited until he came back, so she went back to the palace to have a look, and unexpectedly saw him with her father. Drinking in the Royal Study Room.

It was the first time she saw the emperor and his courtiers sitting and drinking together.

After pouring a glass of wine for Emperor Fu and Lin Xiu, she stood aside, wanting to hear what they had to say.

Emperor Xia drank a glass of wine and asked Lin Xiu, "Tell me, how did you win Fusang?"

Lin Xiu said embarrassingly: "To tell you the truth, I didn't win Miss Qianye, but we agreed that after she married Daxia, we will be called husband and wife, and we will not interfere with each other..."

Emperor Xia asked, "Just like you and Zhao Lingjun?"

Lin Xiu nodded.

Princess Minghe also showed surprise. She only knew that Lin Xiu and Qianye Lin were married in a political marriage, but she didn't know that there was such an inside story.

In this way, Lin Xiu is too pitiful.

You can't touch the wives you marry, and you can't touch the concubines. There are five wives and concubines in his family. Two of them got married because of necessity.

Emperor Xia waved his hands and said: "Actually, between men and women, there are few people who fall in love at first sight, and more people who fall in love over time. Even if they have no feelings when they get married, they can always develop feelings if they see each other every day."

On this point, Lin Xiu and Xia Huang, who are heroes, have the same opinion.

People are emotional animals. As long as a man and a woman are not ugly, they stay together every day, day after day, year after year. It is difficult for nothing to happen. Therefore, long-distance relationships are prone to problems and can last for many years. In different places, both men and women can still stick to the bottom line, and finally achieve a positive result. That is a true unswerving love.

These days, because Lin Xiu has seen Princess Minghe a lot, she has become more and more beautiful.

Looking up at Princess Minghe, Lin Xiu thought silently, this is friendship, this is friendship, this is friendship...

After hearing what her father said, Princess Minghe also took a look at Lin Xiu. No wonder she always dreamed of Lin Xiu in her dreams at night. It turned out that she had seen Lin Xiu more often.

But if she wants to practice, she must meet him every day.

After drinking a few more drinks with Emperor Xia, Zhu Jin walked in from the outside and said that it was the dean of the School of Different Arts asking to see him.

Emperor Xia put down his wine glass and said, "Xuan."

The dean of the School of Different Arts walked into the imperial study room and was slightly taken aback when he saw Lin Xiu and Emperor Xia eating and drinking.

Emperor Xia asked: "The dean rarely looks for me on weekdays, could it be that there is something important?"

The dean of the School of Altered Arts said: "Your Majesty, a strong man at the upper level of the Da Luo Dynasty has been promoted to the Heaven Rank not long ago."

Emperor Xia nodded and said: "I know about this matter, the secret investigation department has already reported it, I remember that the strong man awakened the magic of ice, counting, there are already three ice heavens in the Da Luo Dynasty." level, but I don’t have one in Daxia..."

Among the many celestial abilities, the ice magic is also in the forefront. Those with strong ice attributes at the celestial rank are stronger than those with other abilities.

Regarding this news, Emperor Xia was neither happy nor worried.

Both Daluo and Daxia are among the five great dynasties, and they are also neighboring countries. There were many disputes in the past. In recent years, due to the threat of the Dayou Dynasty, the relationship between the two countries has greatly improved.

Among the five great dynasties, Da Ying and Da Lu, although they have the name of great powers, they do not have the reality of being great powers. Only Da Youma leads the way, and Da Luo and Da Xia can only barely compete with them if they advance and retreat together.

The dean of the School of Abnormal Arts said: "Your Majesty does not know that the promotion of that strong man in Da Luo is different from others."

Emperor Xia became interested and asked, "Oh, what's the difference?"

The dean of the School of Different Arts said: "A year ago, I, Daxia, first discovered that people with ice and fire abilities can practice together, which can speed up their practice. Da Luo, a strong man, also found a woman who had awakened the ability of the fire element. Cultivating every day, I never expected that the two of them would develop feelings for each other when they get along day and night..."

Princess Minghe listened, and couldn't help but glance at Lin Xiu.

Emperor Xia asked: "And then?"

The dean of the School of Abnormal Arts said: "Later they discovered that after the two people who each possessed ice and fire different arts became husband and wife, their practice speed was faster than normal, almost three times faster than the basic practice speed. Not only that, it seems There is also some kind of breakthrough effect, less than a month, that strong man of Da Luo broke through to the heavenly rank..."

Emperor Xia said in astonishment: "There is such a thing?"

Lin Xiu looked indifferent, not surprised at all.

He discovered this matter when he was helping Caiyi to cultivate, but he never said it out.

He couldn't tell either.

If he told Emperor Xia that the real way to open the Dual Cultivation of Ice and Fire is actually the fusion of yin and yang, the unity of man and nature, Emperor Xia would definitely suspect what he did to Princess Minghe.

Their pure friendship cannot be tarnished.

At this time, Princess Minghe was surprised and said: "Why does the speed of practice become faster when you become a husband and wife? Could it be that worshiping the hall can speed up the practice?"

The dean of the School of Altered Arts had an embarrassed expression on his face. Emperor Xia's lips moved, but he didn't know how to explain it.

Lin Xiu looked at Princess Minghe, made fists with both hands, stretched out two thumbs, and touched thumbs with thumbs. Princess Minghe was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood what was happening, and her face turned crimson.

Emperor Xia had a strange expression on his face, and said, "Why hasn't anyone discovered this kind of thing before?"

The dean of the School of Abnormal Arts explained: "Although the strange arts of fire are common, the strange arts of ice are very rare, and these two kinds of ability people will feel disgusted with each other, and it is difficult to even become friends, let alone become friends. Husband and wife, if it wasn't for Lin Xiu and the princess, no one would have discovered this secret so far..."

After finishing speaking, he went on to say: "This is another major discovery in different arts, which can further enhance the talents of those with ice and fire abilities, so that geniuses with these two abilities can practice faster, and The upper limit of strength is higher, but the premise is that they are similar in strength and they will be married. When His Majesty chooses a consort for the princess in the future, it is best to choose one who has awakened the magic of ice for her..."

Lin Xiu looked at the dean of the School of Altered Arts and was speechless.

With the identity and talent of Princess Minghe, it is impossible to marry into another country.

Daxia has awakened the magic of ice, and there are only two people who are similar in strength to Princess Minghe.

He and Lingyin.

Princess Minghe and Lingyin double cultivation...

Just thinking about this scene, Lin Xiu blushed a little.

It is impossible for Lingyin and Princess Minghe to cultivate together, isn't he the only choice left?

What does the dean mean, and what is the difference between letting them get married in situ?

Emperor Xia and Princess Minghe obviously thought of this, and looked at Lin Xiu intentionally or unintentionally.

Lin Xiu felt terrified when they saw her, she got up slowly, and said, "I still have to investigate the case, so I'm leaving now..."

Lin Xiu and the dean of the School of Altered Arts left the imperial study one after another, and there were only father and daughter left here.

Emperor Xia sighed leisurely, looked at Princess Minghe, and asked: "I didn't listen to my words at the beginning, do you regret it now?"

Back then, when he wanted Lin Xiu to be his son-in-law, all he wanted was a word from her.

At that time, she missed the best opportunity, but now she is fine, and it is not her turn to wait in line...
