Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 388

[Chapter 388 Showdown]

To be honest, Lin Xiu was a little panicked about this marriage.

It was not easy for him and Lingyin to get to this point today, but they haven’t achieved the right result yet, and someone cut in line again. How can he explain to his aunt?

If she regrets it in anger, wouldn’t all his efforts be in vain?

Natasha stayed in the palace temporarily, and Lin Xiu returned home alone. Because Daluo’s people might come to Daxia to ask for people at any time, Emperor Xia acted quickly and asked them to get married overnight. When Lin Xiu came back, the house was decorated with lights and colors.

The women looked at Lin Xiu meaningfully, and then left silently, leaving the space for Lin Xiu and Lingyin.

After everyone left, Lingyin stomped her feet and said with some blame: “Who let you make the decision alone? I haven’t agreed to you yet, and my parents haven’t passed the test yet…”

Lin Xiu said helplessly: “Don’t be angry first, His Majesty didn’t grant the marriage to you.”

Lingyin was stunned when she heard it.

Lin Xiu didn’t tell her in advance and asked His Majesty to grant the marriage, she must be angry.

Now Lin Xiu told her that it was a misunderstanding, and that the emperor did not grant her the marriage, which made her even angrier.

She stared at Lin Xiu and asked, “Who are you going to marry now?”

Lin Xiu explained to her in detail what happened in Daluo, the changes in the current situation on the continent, and the difficulties faced by Daxia. He also told her why Emperor Xia granted the marriage. After all, Lingyin was not an unreasonable person, and she quickly recovered.

She did not blame Lin Xiu, but she felt a little regretful.

If she had known that Natasha would cut in line, why would she be so reserved? She should have agreed earlier, anyway, the result would be the same…

Now, tonight, they are getting married upstairs, and she can only sit down and watch.

After a long time, she gritted her teeth, touched Lin Xiu with her arm, and said, “I’ve thought about it, you can go and tell His Majesty tomorrow!”

Lin Xiu was overjoyed. Natasha’s appearance was unexpectedly a surprise, which finally made Lingyin feel a sense of crisis and did not intend to continue testing him.

This is simply a double happiness.

The news that Princess Natasha of Daluo was about to marry into Daxia soon spread throughout the capital under the deliberate dissemination of Emperor Xia, and once again set off a wave of heated discussions.

Another genius married into the Lin Mansion, of course, people were envious.

Envy aside, she entered the Heavenly Rank at the age of 21, overwhelmed the long-established Heavenly Rank masters of Daxia, and had the best talent on the continent. Her future was limitless. Although Princess Natasha had good talent, she was too high to marry.

At the Lin Mansion, Duke Ping’an and Duke Wu’an and their wives hurried over. Lin Xiu repeated what he had just explained to Lingyin.

Duke Wu’an and his wife were not very interested in the situation on the continent. They were more concerned about their daughter.

Lingjun was already married, and they loved each other and lived in harmony, but Lingyin was the only thing that made them worried.

Inside the palace, looking at the sisters Lin Xiu and Ling Jun, the Duke Wu’an and his wife hesitated to speak. Lin Xiu knew that now was the best time. He looked at the two and said, “Father-in-law, mother-in-law, I have something important to tell you…”

In the puzzled eyes of the two, Lin Xiu took Ling Yin’s hand.

Ling Yin lowered her head shyly. The Duke Wu’an and his wife were only surprised for a moment at the beginning, and then their faces returned to normal. After all, they had already noticed a clue about Lin Xiu and Ling Yin’s affairs.

The Duke Wu’an did not say anything to the two, but just looked at Ling Jun on the side and asked, “Did Ling Jun know it a long time ago?”

Ling Jun nodded and said, “I also want Ling Yin to stay with us forever.”

Lin Xiu looked at his father-in-law and mother-in-law, knowing what they were worried about, and took Ling Jun with his other hand and said, “Father-in-law, mother-in-law, don’t worry, I will treat them well for the rest of my life…”

A few years ago, the Duke Wu’an and his wife would never have thought that in the future they would not only marry an older daughter of the Lin family, but also lose a younger daughter.

After he heaved a sigh of relief, he said, “Since it is your decision, your mother and I will not say anything. As long as you live happily…”

The couple of Duke Wu’an did not object to Lin Xiu and Lingyin being together. They were originally a family. In the circle of the powerful in the capital, it was not strange for sisters to marry the same person.

Lingjun and Lingyin had a deep relationship since childhood, so he was not worried that they would have any discord in the future.

Lin Xiu had already known the reaction of his father-in-law and mother-in-law. After they expressed their opinions, Lingyin had no worries.

In order to reassure Lingyin, Lin Xiu did not wait until the next day, but went to the palace immediately to ask Emperor Xia for permission, and asked the Ministry of Rites to calculate an auspicious date.

The marriage with Natasha was naturally the sooner the better, so fast that Daluo could not react.

How could he be a groom every day? If he married Natasha today, it would be difficult to marry Lingyin tomorrow. At least ten days and a half months would have to pass, and the necessary procedures could not be omitted.

Emperor Xia wrote the imperial edict and handed it to Lin Xiu, asking him to go to the Ministry of Rites to issue the edict when he needed it.

Ling Jun, Qianye Lin and Qin Wan heard about the changes in Daluo, and came to the palace with Lin Xiu to visit Natasha. Because the incident happened suddenly, Qin Wan was considerate and lent her her wedding dress.

Because there was only half a day to prepare, even though the Ministry of Rites was very professional, some things were inevitably hasty, and there was no time to notify the guests. There were no guests in the Lin Mansion tonight, and the wedding was just a simple formality. Natasha was sent to a palace.

This happened to be the palace where she lived before.

Lin Xiu knocked on the door of the bridal chamber, then pushed the door open, walked to the bed, and said to Natasha: “Don’t worry, I will go back to Daluo with you tomorrow.”

Natasha raised her head, looked at him with moving blue eyes, and said: “Thank you, Lin.”

Lin Xiu smiled and said: “Don’t be polite, we are all friends.”

Lin Xiu could clearly see that this incident had dealt a heavy blow to Natasha, and even made her, who was lively and cheerful before, become a little taciturn.

Her brother betrayed her, her father’s life and death were uncertain, and she herself was stranded in a foreign land. It was not easy for her not to have emotional collapse until now.

From Natasha, Lin Xiu roughly understood the details of the coup in Daluo.

Over the years, under her father’s iron-fisted policy, the nobles of Daluo were obedient on the surface, and some of them had already secretly established contact with Dayu.

And the eldest prince of Daluo has been close to Dayu in the past few years, which has caused dissatisfaction with Natasha’s father, and even wanted to pass the throne to the next prince.

Dayu had already infiltrated Daluo and was waiting for an opportunity.

Originally, the time was not yet ripe. According to their usual routine, they were more likely to adopt a peaceful evolution method, wait until the eldest prince who was close to Dayu came to power, and then unite with Daluo to decompose Daxia.

Unfortunately, the incident happened suddenly, and the alien visitor caused a great loss of Dayu’s strength, and also made them advance their plan.

In the room, Natasha looked at Lin Xiu and asked, “Lin, have you really reached the Heavenly Rank?”

A year ago, she could still see the gap between her and Lin Xiu, but a year later, she was still in the lower realm of the Earthly Rank, while Lin Xiu had already entered the Heavenly Rank. Although she had received the news a long time ago, she still couldn’t believe it until now.

Lin Xiu released a little bit of his breath to reassure her.

Natasha had suffered a great change and had been running all the way, and was already exhausted physically and mentally. Lin Xiu asked her to rest in the room, and then left.

Although he was getting married to Natasha, Lin Xiu spent this night with Ning’er and Wan’er.

The next morning, when it was light, the people of the capital had just gotten up and were still discussing the matter of Princess Daluo marrying to Daxia, when a huge ice ship flew from the eastern sky and landed in front of the palace.

The people near the palace were confused, and Daluo didn’t know what was going on. A wave of envoys had just come yesterday to send Princess Natasha to get married, so why did another wave come today?

Harem.

Emperor Xia, who was still asleep, was awakened by Zhu Jin. He met several envoys from Daluo with a bad look on his face.

In a certain hall, he yawned, looked at the people below and asked, “Why did you come from afar?”

An old man with a high nose said straight to the point, “Excuse me, is Princess Natasha of Daluo in Daxia now?”

Emperor Xia nodded and said, “Princess Natasha, she is indeed here.”

The old man with a high nose said, “We are ordered by His Majesty to ask Princess Natasha to go back. Please hand her over to us.”

Emperor Xia said, “The envoy is wrong. Although Princess Natasha is in Daxia, I have not restricted her freedom. If you want to take her back, you can take her yourself. You don’t need to ask me.”

The old man with a high nose looked at him and asked, “Then may I ask, where is Princess Natasha now?”

Emperor Xia yawned again with his hands covering his mouth and said, “Zhu Jin, take him to find Princess Natasha.”

A moment later, at the gate of Lin’s mansion.

Zhu Jin brought the old man with a high nose bridge here, pointed inside, and said, “Princess Natasha is inside. Last night, she married the owner of this house.”

The Daluo Tianjie strongman was stunned. Judging from the time, Princess Natasha fled to Daxia, and she didn’t even have a day. In less than a day, she got married?

However, he soon understood the reason.

Princess Natasha is about to marry the elder of Dayu. Daxia must not want to see this happen, and wants Princess Natasha to marry first to destroy the marriage between Daluo and Dayu.

However, they thought too simply.

Even if Princess Natasha married in Daxia, he would take her back. Everything they did was in vain.

The old man with a high nose bridge strode towards the house. Early in the morning, the door of the house was not opened yet. The old man slapped his palm, and the two doors of the house collapsed.

The old man stepped on the collapsed door and walked into the house.

Passing through a long corridor, what came into view were palaces.

The huge noise of breaking the door startled the people in the house. Two middle-aged women walked out of two palaces respectively. The old man looked at them and his pupils shrank suddenly.

The next moment, a young man and woman walked out of the other two palaces.

Lin Xiu looked at the old man with a high nose bridge, then looked at the collapsed door of the house, and a smile appeared on his face.

…

Outside the Lin Mansion, several Daluo envoys waited and waited, but did not wait for Duke Andrei to come out. After a long time, someone finally couldn’t help but walked in carefully. In front of a palace, a young man looked at him and asked, “What are you doing?”

The Daluo envoy looked around and asked, “Where is Duke Andrei who just came in?”

Lin Xiu shook his head and said, “What Duke? No one came in just now…”
