Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 379
[Chapter 379 Is there anyone who objects?]
No one expected that a small case of a drunken fight would actually involve the prince and the Lin family.
Before today, in the minds of the people, the prince had no outstanding abilities, but no bad deeds either. He could only be said to be a mediocre crown prince.
Until today, people knew that under the prince’s silly appearance, he actually had such a vicious heart.
This can no longer be called vicious, only twisted and perverted can describe it.
Over the years, Daxia has no idea how many geniuses of ice magic have been secretly wiped out by him. More importantly, he is not only crazy, but also brainless. Who is Zhao Lingyin’s sister? Who is Lin Xiu’s wife? Daxia and even the entire continent, the youngest Tianjie in history, does he think his position as prince is too stable?
Everyone is waiting for the court’s response and the Lin family’s response.
At this time, the gate of the East Palace was closed, and the prince was no longer in the palace.
As soon as he learned the news, he asked the earth-level upper-level guard to bring him to the Zhang family from underground.
At the Dingguo Mansion, the prince looked at a middle-aged man in panic and said, “Save me…”
Zhang Xian’s face had already turned as black as the bottom of a pot. How could his sister give birth to such a thing? If he had known, he would have let her and His Majesty have another child. Even if it was a fool, it would be better than this idiot.
The Zhang family didn’t dare to assassinate Zhao Lingyin or Lin Xiu. How could he save him?
Another figure soon appeared in the yard.
Zhang Xian bowed and said to the old man, “Father.” Dingguo Duke
also had a gloomy face and glanced at the prince. Before they could discuss countermeasures, a servant came to report that someone had come from the palace and His Majesty had summoned the prince to the palace for questioning.
Zhang Xian glanced at Duke Dingguo and asked, “Father, what should we do now?”
Duke Dingguo said in
a deep voice, “What else can we do? Let’s go.” Before leaving, he first walked to the deepest courtyard of the Zhang family, gently knocked on the gate, and then walked in carefully. Standing in the courtyard, he said, “I didn’t want to disturb your practice, but this time, the family really encountered some troubles…”
The imperial palace, the imperial study.
Emperor Xia sat above, expressionless, and his emotions could not be seen.
At a certain moment, three figures slowly walked in from outside the palace.
The white-haired Duke Dingguo supported a man, a hunchbacked old man, who was so old that he had no hair, and his face and head were covered with brown spots. When Emperor Xia saw the old man, he could no longer remain calm. He hurried down, supported the old man, and said hurriedly: “Grandfather, why are you here, Zhu Jin, please take a seat…”
The old man smiled and said: “The child made a mistake, and I am here to take him to admit his punishment.”
After saying that, he glanced at the prince and said lightly: “Why don’t you kneel down?”
The prince knelt on the ground with a “thump”, tears streaming down his face: “Father, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!”
Emperor Xia glanced at him and said: “Save this sentence for Lin Xiu and others.”
As soon as he finished speaking, two more figures walked into the hall.
Looking at the young man and woman who walked in, the prince’s face turned very pale.
Duke Dingguo looked at Lin Xiu and Zhao Lingjun, cupped his hands, and said, “The prince was reckless and ignorant in his early years, and did some things he shouldn’t have done. I’m here to apologize to you and your wife. You can ask for any compensation you want. As long as the Zhang family can do it, we will definitely satisfy you…”
Lin Xiu was surprised and said, “Really?”
Duke Dingguo said, “Of course.”
Lin Xiu said indifferently, “Then depose the prince.”
The prince’s body trembled, and the expression on Duke Dingguo’s face froze.
After a long time, he said with a sullen face, “The prince is the crown prince of a country, and he will inherit the throne in the future. His position is very important. How can he be deposed?”
Lin Xiu said, “It is precisely because the prince is the crown prince of a country and is very important that we choose him more carefully. How can such a perverted person with twisted psychology and cruel means become the future king of Daxia?”
The corner of the prince’s eye twitched, and his fists tucked in his sleeves were clenched, but he could only kneel there quietly.
Duke Dingguo said in a deep voice: “Establishing a crown prince is a matter for the royal family and the court. Are you, the Lin family, going to blackmail En Ziwei and interfere in state affairs?”
Lin Xiu sarcastically said: “You, the Zhang family, have the nerve to say that others are interfering in state affairs?”
“You!”
“Is what I said wrong?”
…
The atmosphere in the imperial study was tense. At this time, the old man sitting on the chair said, “It is inevitable for people to make mistakes. It is not too late to correct mistakes. Since he has already known his mistakes, why can’t he be given a chance?”
Lin Xiu said coldly, “Give him a chance. Who will give those innocent people who died in his hands a chance? According to what you said, I will kill you and then admit my mistakes
, right?” The old man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “If you can kill me, you don’t have to admit your mistakes, and no one will embarrass you. If you can’t kill me, let’s just let it go. How about it?”
Emperor Xia was anxious when he saw it from above. The ancestor of the Zhang family was already 120 years old. He was once the first genius of Daxia and the strongest man of Daxia today. Fifty years ago, he had already been promoted to the Heavenly Stage. Although he had not yet entered the upper realm of the Heavenly Stage, how could Lin Xiu defeat him with fifty years of cultivation in the Heavenly Stage?
As expected of an old fox who has lived for two centuries, he shifted the contradiction to another place with just two sentences.
If we talk about overall strength, the Zhang family is naturally inferior to the Lin family.
But Lin Xiu was only 21 years old, and he hadn’t even reached the Heavenly Stage. He had lived a hundred years longer than Lin Xiu, and had practiced a hundred years longer. This bet was too unfair.
Lin Xiu looked at the old man, smiled slightly, and said, “Okay…”
Emperor Xia hurriedly said, “Xiu’er…”
“Okay!”
Without waiting for Emperor Xia to stop him, the old man stood up and said with a smile: “I have lived my whole life, and I have never seen a young man as courageous as you. I will go outside first and wait for you to kill me…” As soon
as he finished speaking, he turned into a breeze and disappeared in the imperial study.
Duke Dingguo glanced at Lin Xiu, snorted coldly, and said: “Young man, you don’t know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!”
The old ancestor of the Zhang family, on this continent, can only be defeated by the old guy in the upper realm of the heavenly rank in Dayu. He admitted that Lin Xiu’s talent is very strong. At a young age, he already has the strength of the upper realm of the earthly rank, but compared with the old ancestor, it is still far behind.
Even his wife Zhao Lingjun does not have such strength.
If he practices for twenty years, he can be comparable to the old ancestor who practiced for 120 years. Then the old ancestor’s past 100 years are really a waste of practice…
The prince knelt on the ground, but he was laughing wildly in his heart.
Lin Xiu, this fool, actually didn’t know the old ancestor of the Zhang family. He promised it himself!
In the capital, people were discussing the big news in the Prince’s Mansion today. At a certain moment, a powerful aura suddenly appeared in the direction of the palace.
As soon as the aura appeared, all the Heaven-level masters in the capital felt it.
The three dukes of the Song family, the Qi family, and the Wei family came to the yard together and looked up at the sky.
“This is…”
“The one from the Zhang family!”
“He actually showed up!”
They all heard about the movements in the capital today. The Song family was even more overjoyed. They didn’t like the Lin family and the Zhang family. It would be best if they could fight each other to the point of both being injured, so that the Song family and the King of Qi could reap the benefits…
Deep in the palace, three old men stepped out of the hall at the first time, with a look of surprise on their faces.
In the Xue Mansion, the old Duke Xue raised his head, a look of worry appeared on his face, and murmured: “That old guy…” The
two middle-aged women of the Lin family just looked up and retracted their gaze, playing chess by themselves.
After the Heavenly Rank experts in the capital felt the powerful aura, they all approached the direction of the palace. However, before they could get close, another powerful aura rose into the sky, stirring up waves in everyone’s hearts again.
“Another Heavenly Rank!”
“It’s of the Fire Element!”
“A very unfamiliar aura, who has broken through again?”
When they saw a figure with flames all over his body, they were stunned.
Lin Xiu!
How could it be Lin Xiu?
Zhao Lingjun broke through the Heavenly Rank at the age of 21. Just one month later, another 21-year-old Heavenly Rank appeared in Daxia. They couldn’t believe it at all, but the Heavenly Rank aura on Lin Xiu reminded them all the time.
Lin Xiu is a Heavenly Rank.
Duke Dingguo looked at the sky in shock, his mind was blank. Thousands of feet high in the sky, the old man looked at Lin Xiu, and a trace of shock also appeared in his eyes. He had seen many Heavenly Rank experts, but he was too young…
Youth represents infinite possibilities.
He had to start considering whether it was worth offending such a pair of Tianjiao for the sake of the crown prince?
But now, he had no way to retreat.
He had already attracted the attention of so many people, so he couldn’t retreat, and couldn’t retreat.
At most, he could be gentler for a while, to save him some face. The prince’s matter could be discussed later.
He was suspended in the sky thousands of feet high, looking at the young figure opposite him, and said: “I don’t want to bully you, you are not my opponent. We can talk about the prince’s matter again, and the Zhang family will satisfy you.”
Lin Xiu said lightly: “Except for abolishing the prince, I have nothing to talk to you about.”
In this case, there was no need to talk. The old man looked at him calmly and said: “I hope you will abide by the promise just now… Ouch!”
He didn’t even finish a word, and his feet were empty, falling straight into the clouds.
At this moment, he suddenly couldn’t control the Yuanli in his body.
His special skills were completely ineffective. No matter how he mobilized, the Yuanli in his body had no reaction. There was only the whistling sound of the wind in his ears. The power of wind that he was familiar with on weekdays suddenly became extremely unfamiliar.
The old man’s body fell rapidly, and his old face was full of fear. In his life, he had never been so terrified as at this moment.
Without his special skills, he was just an ordinary person who was about to step into the coffin. Falling from a height of thousands of feet, he was doomed to die! He
didn’t even have to wait for him to fall. After falling for a few breaths, he fell into a coma.
…
The palace, in the square in front of the imperial study.
An old man was lying on the ground. Lin Xiu slowly fell from the sky. In the end, he didn’t kill him. Just now, if he didn’t do anything, the powerful man at the peak of the lower realm of the heavenly rank would be smashed into a pool of mud.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Several figures appeared in the square. Lin Xiu glanced at them. They were several dukes of the heavenly rank in the royal capital. Three powerful men from the royal family were also there. After they glanced at the old man on the ground, they all looked at Lin Xiu with fear. Lin Xiu looked at
the ancestor of the Zhang family who was still in a coma, looked around at everyone, and asked lightly: “The prince has no virtue and is not worthy of inheriting the throne. I propose to abolish the position of Prince Li Yong and establish the King of Qin as the new prince. Does anyone object?”
