Chapter 323 Fulfilling the Promise

"Lingyin is a genius, a rare genius, and I don't want to waste such a rough gem."

Lina's eyes, which seemed to hide the blue ocean, stared at Xu Lingyin carefully, as if staring at a treasure.

genius?

Xu Pingzhi and his nephew looked at each other and shook their heads: "My girl has no talent, her muscles and bones are not tough, she just has a bunch of strength."

Back then Xu Qi'an practiced martial arts, and Xu New Year studied, it was Xu Pingzhi's decision. Because Xu Nian has no talent for martial arts, but he is extremely intelligent. But Xu Qi'an was just the opposite.

After Xu Lingyin was born, Xu Pingzhi also touched the bones, and after years of observation, he was absolutely convinced that his little girl was not only stupid, but also weak in muscles and bones.

At least in the level of refinement, she was very sad.

Xu Qi'an also shook his head, his current vision is more vicious than Xu Ershu's, if Xu Lingyin is a martial arts genius, Xu Qi'an has already begun to cultivate Dafeng's flowers.

As for reading, Xu Xinnian gave up when his younger sister was four years old. His evaluation is: eyesight is slack, concentration cannot be concentrated, reading a book with a hammer.

Sure enough, Xu Lingyin did not disappoint her second brother. Every husband who taught her would be annoyed with doubts about life.

If you have to say what talent Xiaodouding has, probably eat it?

Regarding Uncle Xu's words, Lina retorted: "But she can eat."

Are you entertaining us? The whole family squinted at Nanjiang little Heipi.

Seeing the strange eyes of everyone, Lina asked in surprise, "Didn't you realize that she is a genius?"

When Xu Niannian and the others heard this, they turned to look at Xu Lingyin who was peeling the egg. She tapped one end of the egg on the table, then pressed the egg with her small palm, rubbed it vigorously on the table, and the shell fell off as soon as she touched it.

The whole process is smooth and smooth.

At her age, the family is indeed a genius and the family can't help but want to cover their faces.

Xu Qi'an coughed, and gently reminded Lina not to joke around: "Eating may be a talent, but it's not so proud that you want to take apprentices, what can you teach her?

"How to peel off the eggshell within three breaths? How to make myself eat an extra bowl of rice every day?"

Lina's wheat-colored healthy complexion suddenly flushed red, and she waved her hands to defend: "I'm not teaching her to eat, I'm teaching her Gu skills."

Xu Pingzhi's face changed, and he waited for Xu Lingyin like a copper bell: "Did you catch bugs and eat them?"

Xu Lingyin showed yearning, and tentatively said: "Can insects be eaten?"

"Can't eat, can't eat." Xu New Year and Uncle Xu waved their hands neatly.

When I heard that you were going to teach her Gu skills, my first reaction was also: Did Xiao Douding eat bugs? !

Xu Qi'an complained in his heart, and asked thoughtfully: "You mean, she is a genius at cultivating Gu."

Lina nodded, and then corrected: "To be precise, he is a genius of the cultivation Gu. Lingyin has a strong bone, full of energy and blood, this is a genius that has not been encountered in our strength Gu department for decades.

"Don't you find it strange that such a small child has such a big appetite."

Isn't it because she is gluttonous? Everyone in the Xu family thought to themselves, and then they came to a little understanding. According to Xu Lingyin's eating method, if it was another child, she would have been stuffed to death, but she was alive and kicking.

Lina suppressed the desire to eat, and said eloquently: "The cultivation method of our Power Gu Department is to choose a Power Gu to swallow when we are young, and let it reside in the body.

"In the first few years, the strength Gu will absorb the blood and energy of the host. If the child is not physically fit, he will become very weak. Since the strength Gu and the host have the same life, they will not drain the host, but will only be with him. Weak together.

"That creates a congenital deficiency."

She said, looking at Xu Lingyin with scorching eyes, "But she won't, she will provide an excellent breeding ground for Power Gu, and lay a solid foundation at a young age. Moreover, Lingyin is strong and strong, even if she doesn't She cultivates her mind and her strength is far superior to her peers, once she is well cultivated, she will soar into the sky."

The family looked at each other in blank dismay.

The aunt pondered for a while, and tentatively asked: "Then will she become as edible as you?"

Lina waved her hand: "No, no."

My aunt just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Xiao Heipi say modestly: "She will become more edible than me."

""

Without even thinking about it, the aunt vetoed: "I don't agree, what about you, sir?"

Xu Pingzhi looked at his son and nephew, asking for advice: "What do you two think?"

Xu Qi'an commented: "Anyway, studying is useless, and martial arts is not that kind of material, why don't you give it a try."

Aunt slapped the table with a "bang bang", feeling offended, and trembled coldly: "Xu Ningyan, what are you talking about, isn't the ring tone your sister?"

It seems that there is no need for the future, and the old hatred can be remembered today, and the mother-child relationship between aunt and nephew has come to an end.

Xu Lingyue said in a low voice, "Mother, what elder brother said is right."

The angry aunt was caught off guard and was stabbed in the back by her daughter.

Xu Nian said: "You can accept apprentices, but there is one thing I want to ask you, when will you be able to become a teacher in the cultivation of strength Gu?"

Lina didn't even think about it, and said: "The shortest is five years, and the longest is twenty years, it depends on the individual's talent."

Xu Nian nodded, glanced at Lingyin, and said, "Then Miss Lina can stay in the capital for five years, or twenty years?"

Lina's mouth moved faster than her brain: "As long as you give me food, I can stay forever."

"no!"

Everyone in the Xu family spoke in unison.

"" Little Heipi looks aggrieved, isn't he just eating a few mouthfuls of rice from your family, be stingy.

In the end, Xu Pingzhi, the head of the family, made a decision and said, "Laurina will teach the little girl."

Xu Xinnian and Xu Qi'an cast puzzled eyes. Could it be that Lina really wants to live in the capital for five years, or even twenty years?

That bundle of repairs is too expensive.

Regarding this, Xu Pingzhi said with a smile: "Lingyin is just a girl, and she doesn't want to be the best in the world. If she can learn a little bit, even if she can't become a teacher, it doesn't matter.

"You two are just too high-minded, and you have to fight for the top in everything."

Xu Xinian and Xu Qi'an had nothing to say, and felt that what the second uncle (father) said made sense.

Lina patted Xu Lingyin's head, "If you go back to southern Xinjiang with me, my father will definitely accept you as a direct disciple. You can move a mountain in at most ten years."

A corresponding image appeared in Xu Qi'an's mind. Ten years later, the grown-up Xu Lingyin was carrying a big mountain, and every step would cause an earthquake-like effect. He said happily:

Cauldron, I'm back, I'll send you a mountain, take it!

The Xu family has a girl who has just grown up, and Xu Qi'an shuddered.

On the eve of dawn, the sky was blue.

An orange cat walked gracefully through the empty and quiet streets, and came to the gate of the Sun Mansion.

It lightly jumped up to the roof of a house facing the street, looked around, then jumped off the roof, and quickly rushed to the gate of the Sun Mansion.

Then, the orange cat rolled its throat, protruding a circular outline, and slowly squeezed out of its throat.

It was a small jade mirror. After it was spit out, it did not fall to the ground, but was suspended in the air. The brilliance of the mirror flashed, shaking out a comatose young master.

The orange cat opened its mouth, put the small jade mirror back into its abdomen, cocked its tail, and left quickly.

After another quarter of an hour, the yawning old concierge opened the door and saw the handsome young man lying on the ground. He was startled, and after seeing his face clearly, he ran into the mansion excitedly.

In a short time, several servants came in a hurry and carried the handsome young master into the mansion.

When Sun Shangshu heard the news, he came and saw his son lying unconscious in Jinta, and his heart was broken instantly.

"Master, young master, he is just in a coma, and he was not seriously injured." The old butler standing by the bed said.

"What do you mean you have not been seriously injured?" Sun Shangshu raised his eyebrows.

"The young master was whipped dozens of times, and his skin was torn apart. Fortunately, it was all skin trauma. After applying the medicine, there was no serious problem." The old housekeeper lowered his head.

"Bastard! Broke his word!"

Sun Shangshu's face was livid, distressed and angry, but then, as if he thought of something, the boiling anger suddenly dissipated.

After a moment of silence, Sun Shangshu sighed, "Just come back."

Haoqi building, tea room.

"King Yu has no intention of fighting for fame and fortune, so he can return my favor. If he is still the King Yu back then, I'm afraid he won't agree to me easily. As for Cao Guogong, he and King Zhenbei's deputy will join forces to plan my King Kong's invincibility. defeat.

"I remember Wei Gong said that the dispute between the court and the court is a dispute of interests, and one must learn to compromise. So I agreed to his request."

Holding tea in his hands, Xu Qi'an sat in the well-lit tea room, turned his head, and looked at Wei Yuan who was basking in the sun and looking at the scenery on the observation deck.

"That's right, you do have savvy, but it's a pity that your temper is hard to change, and you are not suitable for court." Wei Yuan nodded.

"It's mainly because Wei Gong taught well." Xu Qi'an said modestly.

Wei Yuan smiled, pressed his hands on the guardrail, looked at the beautiful spring and sunny scenery, and asked after a long time:

"You have been running around in the imperial examination fraud case, and you didn't even pay much attention to the yamen. It's hard work."

"But I also learned a lot." Xu Qi'an responded, taking a sip of tea.

Wei Yuan laughed and said, "Understand my point."

Xu Baiyou was stunned for a moment, and had a bad feeling: "Hard work?"

Wei Yuan shook his head, without turning around, and said in a gentle tone, "I haven't spent much time in the Yamen."

""

Wei Yuan took advantage of the situation and said, "So, this month's monthly salary is gone."

Xu Qi'an's eyes were dull, he stared blankly at Wei Qingyi's back, with a mournful face: "Wei Gong, my salary for this month has long been gone."

"Really?" Wei Yuan was taken aback, then nodded slowly: "Then next month's will be gone."

"???"

Did I make him unhappy somewhere? The smart Xu Baiyou didn't get entangled in this topic, and never competed with the leader, he would only make fun of himself.

"Wei Gong, why did the deputy general of King Zhenbei return to Beijing?"

"The situation in the north is tense, there is a shortage of food and wages, and they come back to ask for money." Wei Yuan said.

"What kind of person is King Zhenbei?"

"A domineering person."

Domineering people are often unable to reason, and because of his status as a prince, he can disregard the rules to a certain extent. Xu Qi'an judges in his heart.

Saying goodbye to Wei Yuan, he rode on the filly, sat on the saddle for a long time with the heavy cloth bag, and rushed towards Duke Huai's mansion.

Now, he wants to fulfill his promise and go to the deputy general of King Zhenbei.

"It's very strange, Chu Xianglong asked me to go to the Zhenbei Palace to look for him after the matter was over, which means that during his return to Beijing, he didn't live in his own house, but in the Zhenbei Palace.

"At least, most of the time is spent in Zhenbei Wangfu. And Zhenbei Wang is at the border, and there is only one princess who is the most beautiful woman in the mansion"

From the perspective of King Zhenbei, it is definitely impossible for his younger brother and widowed concubine to live under the same roof.

But Chu Xianglong just did this, and it was grandiose and undisguised, which means that Chu Xianglong was instructed by King Zhenbei.

Why did King Zhenbei do this?

His trust in the lieutenant is much higher than that of the princess

Duke Huai Mansion, the outer hall.

A woman with a light gauze covering her face and a gorgeous palace dress is sitting on the table and playing with tea sets.

In the hall, Chu Xianglong, who was covered in armor and wore a knife on his waist and hips, stood upright, staring at the princess sharply, and said in a deep voice:

"I heard from the guards in the mansion that the princess has disappeared twice for no reason?"

The veil-covered woman turned a deaf ear and lowered her head to fiddle with the tea set with gentle movements and elegant posture.

"How did the concubine hide it from the guards in the mansion? And how did she hide it from the warlock Si Tianjian? Who have you met recently, and what happened to you?"

"Noisy!"

The veiled woman frowned lightly, her voice was high and cold, "Are you questioning me?"

"Don't dare!"

Chu Xianglong bowed his head, and said calmly: "This trip back to the capital, I will not only ask His Majesty for the military salary, but also take the princess to the north to meet the prince. You should make preparations early."

After a pause, he raised his head, stared at the woman's vivid and beautiful eyes, and said in a deep voice, "I will stay in the palace during this time. If the princess wants to go out, I will accompany you all the way."

The masked woman remained silent.

At this moment, a guard stepped into the hall, clasped his fists and said, "General Chu, Yingong Xu Qi'an is asking to see you."

Chu Xianglong nodded, glanced at the princess, clasped his hands together, and exited the hall.

Xu Qi'an, what did he come to the palace for? The masked woman lowered her head, her eyes rolled, showing cunning, she didn't know what she was thinking.

PS: I am going to make a detailed outline. Half of the second volume is written, and the other half has an outline, but the detailed outline has not been done. If it's not updated by 12pm, it's gone.
