Don’t Show the Son

Outside the Lin Mansion.

The middle-aged man selling pancakes looked at the old beggar and asked, Do you think my cooking skills have improved in the past two days?

The old beggar glanced at the still dark lump in the pot, but said nothing.

The middle-aged man looked around and found a greyhound crouching in a corner not far away. With an idea, he walked up to the greyhound and dumped all the contents of the pot in front of the greyhound.

After pouring it out, he also said generously: You wild dog is also to blame, eat it, it's cheap for you.

Xiao Hui ate beef bibimbap this afternoon, and he ate a whole big bowl. Right now, he was feeling overwhelmed, when he suddenly smelled a pungent smell, his dog's eyes widened suddenly, and then...

vomit~~~

With a sullen face, the middle-aged man kicked the greyhound's ass, walked back to the pancake stand, looked back at Lin Fu, and said, It's a pity that that kid didn't become a spy.

They were ordered to protect Lin Xiu, so they naturally knew what he had done. Being able to train a dog to follow others for him was already considered a remarkable skill.

As for the thrush, they didn't find it because the target was too small.

After being reminded by him, the old beggar also realized something, and said: Speaking of secret detectives, the kid who was caught from the brothel today can actually change his face. This kind of talent is exactly what the secret detective department needs. You are here to guard Now, I want to go back and report this matter immediately...

Tongren Medical Center.

When Liu Dong woke up, the broken bone in his chest had been healed, but his heart was dark.

The woman's servant came here just now and told him not to show him in front of her in the future, otherwise he would beat him every time he saw him, which meant that he had to say goodbye to his previous extravagant life.

He can no longer eat whatever he wants, buy whatever he wants, although this kind of life is a bit difficult, but when he thinks that he will never have to face that disgusting woman again, and he will never have to be tortured by those terrible tools...

Thinking of this, Liu Dong shuddered, and immediately erased some terrifying scenes from his mind.

Limping out of the Tongren Medical Center, two figures suddenly blocked his way.

In broad daylight, the two were wearing black clothes with sabers around their waists. Liu Dong was taken aback and asked, Who are you and what do you want to do?

One of them showed him a mysterious smile, and said, Liu Dong, come with us, our secret investigation department really needs talents like you...

...

As the last Yuanjing turned into powder in Lin Xiu's hands, the first pot of gold he earned through his identity as a spy was also spent in nothing.

And what he gained was only the growth of Yuanli equivalent to ten days of hard work.

Lin Xiu sometimes hesitated, whether it was worth it or not, but when she thought of the impossible assassination, her heart became firmer.

Money is something outside the body, but strength is not.

His own strength is related to his wealth and life, and whether he can protect the one he loves. Compared with these, some gold and silver are nothing.

In the past few days, Lin Xiu has received several orders one after another.

It was all introduced to him by Chen Yuanyuan. The friends of the rich woman are all rich women. In her circle, there are also some women who are in a similar situation to her. They are worried that their men are looking for women outside, so they entrust Lin Xiu to follow up and investigate, but The bid was not as bold as Chen Yuanyuan's.

There was a reason why Chen Yuanyuan bid so high.

Liu Dong has the ability to change his appearance. Chen Yuanyuan spent several months and hired several secret investigators, but they couldn't find out why. In a fit of anger, he offered a huge reward.

The price of general extramarital affair investigations ranges from only a dozen taels to dozens of taels.

There was no need for Lin Xiu to accept this kind of commission, he refused without thinking.

From the very beginning, he didn't plan to take the cheap route. He was not good at taking orders. An order of one thousand taels of silver was worth dozens of such small orders. Lin Xiu had no time to waste energy on these things. .

Lin Xiu knew very well that Chen Yuanyuan's kindness in helping him introduce business was an idea to hurt his body.

It's not that he's not interested in rich women, but he also needs to be a young and beautiful rich woman like Lingyin. Chen Yuanyuan had no choice but to give up when Lin Xiu refused to follow her.

When Lin Xiu ran into Chen Yuanyuan again on the street, she was already holding another young man's hand intimately.

The man was handsome, and his clothes were extremely luxurious. Obviously he was made of high-quality silk, he wore gold silk cloud boots, and he wore a piece of valuable jade around his waist. All together, it's really expensive.

This man's material life should be greatly satisfied, but Lin Xiucong couldn't see a smile on his face.

There was no light in his eyes.

It was the most vigorous age, but his eyes were very dull, his expression was confused, like a body whose soul had been emptied.

Life is like this, if you get something, you will naturally give it up. He got material enjoyment, but what he gave up was an unruly soul...

Lin Xiu was holding a birdcage in his hand. The thrush in the cage was newly bought by him, and he took a lot of effort to tame it. This was a gift he chose for the imperial concubine. Apart from his mother and Lingyin, she is the only one in this world. For Lin Xiu's best woman, if others treat him well, Lin Xiu always wants to repay him very much.

The imperial concubine was lonely in the palace, so Lin Xiu made fun of her from time to time.

Before reaching the gate of the palace, Lin Xiu's footsteps suddenly stopped.

He saw a familiar figure on the street.

Liu Qingfeng walked out of a medical clinic with an old woman on his back, looking extremely lonely.

An old man sent him out, shook his head and said: Lingtang's illness, forgive me for being helpless, I'd better invite someone else.

A trace of sadness flashed in Liu Qingfeng's eyes, and he was about to leave when a familiar voice suddenly came from behind.

Lin Xiu came over and asked, Lord Liu, what's the matter?

With a forced smile on Liu Qingfeng's face, he said, It's Mrs. Lin, my mother is sick, and I'll take her to see a doctor.

Lin Xiu asked, How is Lingtang's illness? What does the doctor say?

Liu Qingfeng shook his head.

Lin Xiu thought for a while, and said, Well, I have some connections in the Tai Hospital. Later, you bring Ling Tang to the Lin Mansion, and I will ask her to give Ling Tang another diagnosis and treatment...

Liu Qingfeng froze for a moment, hesitated and said, This...

He didn't like to be favored by others. When it was related to his mother's illness, he really couldn't refuse.

In fact, he also thought about hiring an imperial physician, but with a salary of more than ten taels a month, he was barely able to buy medicine for his mother, and the imperial physician paid more than a hundred taels of silver for outpatient visits, and he couldn't afford it at all...

Lin Xiu patted him on the shoulder and said, They are all colleagues. Why are you being polite to me? I still have something to do. I'm entering the palace. See you later.

Before Liu Qingfeng could say thank you, Lin Xiu turned and left.

He looked at Lin Xiu's back, thinking of his attitude towards him before, a trace of guilt appeared on his face, but soon became joyful, and said: Mother, the imperial physician is very skilled, and he will definitely be able to cure your illness!

Not long after, Lin Xiu had already entered the palace.

The imperial hospital is in the palace, and Lingyin can take Lin Xiu into the gate of the front palace. This is the privilege of her Tianziyuan students. Lin Xiu does not have this kind of authority. His token can only let him enter alone.

Passing through the long palace corridor, after showing her waist badge twice, accompanied by the little eunuch, Lin Xiu entered Changchun Palace with ease.

A group of white shadows flew into Lin Xiu's arms impatiently from the chest of the imperial concubine, making Lin Xiu's body full of the fragrance of the imperial concubine. Lin Xiu now knows that the little guy is not called Nannan, it has its own name, which translates to In the official language of Daxia, it should be Bai Ling.

The imperial concubine curled her lips when she saw it, and said displeasedly: I have raised it for so long, and it has only seen you a few times, so it is closer to you than I am.

Lin Xiu gave Bai Ling a look, and it immediately flew back into the concubine's arms, and rubbed its small head against her chest.

At this time, Lin Xiu also stepped forward, handed the birdcage to the little lady-in-waiting, and said to the concubine, Your Majesty, this is a gift from the students to your Majesty, it has a very nice cry, and it can relieve your boredom on weekdays.

The imperial concubine has lived in the deep palace for a long time and lacks company, so she loves this spiritual pet in every possible way. The thrush that Lin Xiu gave her can be said to have been sent to her heart, but thinking that the spiritual pet lives in the palace like her, will gradually give birth to depression In the heart, this bird is trapped in the cage, so it is not the second her, and a little pity rises in her heart.

She looked at Lin Xiu and said, I like the gifts you gave me very much, but the sky is their destination. I think it should not be willing to be trapped in this small cage. How about Let it go...

After speaking, she opened the cage with her own hands.

However, the thrush in the cage flew out of the cage and flew around the sky with its wings, but then flew down again and landed on her shoulder.

The imperial concubine didn't dare to move anymore, she tilted her head to look at the bird that landed on her shoulder, she was both surprised and happy, and asked, Hey, what's going on here?

Lin Xiu explained: Go back to your mother, this bird was domesticated by the students. You don't need to keep it in a cage on weekdays. When it wants to go out, it will fly out to play by itself. When it's tired and hungry, it will come back by itself. .”

Lin Xiu stretched out her hand, and the thrush fell into his palm. She looked at the imperial concubine and said, Your Majesty, you can also try this, this bird is very spiritual.

The imperial concubine stretched out her hand tentatively, and the thrush flew into her hand.

The smile on her face stretched out, and she said again and again: Interesting, really interesting...

Seeing her so happy, Lin Xiu also heaved a sigh of relief.

In order to please the imperial concubine, he also took great pains. He used all the methods he used to pick up girls. Fortunately, the effect was not bad. After getting this new pet, the smile on the imperial concubine's face never disappeared. His painstaking efforts Nor was it in vain.

Half an hour later, Lin Xiu came out from Changchun Palace.

He gave the imperial concubine a new pet, and the empress rewarded him with a pair of earrings. Lin Xiu felt that if this continued, the accessories around her would all be in his hands sooner or later.

He originally planned to go to the imperial hospital, invite Miss Shuangshuang to have dinner together in the afternoon, and help Liu Qingfeng's mother see a doctor, but when he passed by the entrance of Qianqiu Palace, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

A figure came out of Qianqiu Palace, and when he saw Lin Xiu, he was also taken aback for a moment.

Afterwards, the man's expression became a little awkward, and he said to Lin Xiu: Brother Lin, what a coincidence, you are here too...

Lin Xiu didn't expect to meet Li Baizhang in the harem.

He saw clearly just now that Li Bozhang came out of the Qianqiu Palace, which was the bedroom of Concubine Shu. After she stopped making ice for the palace, Lin Xiu could not enter a long time ago.

Apart from the emperor, the only man who can freely come and go there is the son of Concubine Shu.

Seeing Li Baizhang, the little eunuch beside Lin Xiu hurried forward two steps and said respectfully, See His Highness King Qin.

Li Bozhang waved his hand and said, Excuse me, please leave the palace first.

Lin Xiu once doubted Li Baizhang's identity, and even made a special investigation, but Li is the surname of the Daxia Kingdom, and there are more than a dozen dignitaries with the surname of Li in the capital of the kingdom. There was no way to determine his identity.

But Lin Xiu never expected that he was actually the prince.

Today's emperor has many concubines and many children, but most of those princes and princesses are underage, and there are only four adult princes.

Crown Prince, King Qi, King Zhao, and King Qin.

These four princes were born to one empress and three concubines respectively. Except for the imperial concubine, these five empresses with the highest status in the harem all had heirs.

The crown prince is the queen's concubine's son and the eldest son of the emperor. He was established as the crown prince very early. The king of Qi was born of the concubine Xian. He is also the elder brother of Princess Minghe, and the last one is King Qin.

King Qin is the only son of Concubine Shu. Among these princes, he has the least sense of presence and rarely shows up in court, so that in the circle of top dignitaries, His Highness King Qin only hears his name and does not see him. people.

When he came to this world, the first friend he met was actually the prince.

But thinking about it carefully, Lin Xiu didn't feel surprised at all.

It is true that the father likes young women and the son likes sister Yu.

After leaving the harem, Lin Xiu cupped her hands to Li Baizhang and said, I didn't know His Highness's identity before, so I offended you so much, Your Highness, please don't blame me.

Li Bozhang waved his hand and said, I still like you to call me Brother Li. You and I are friends because we share similar interests. Between us, there is no son of Uncle Pingan, nor His Highness King Qin.

Lin Xiu is not a hypocritical person either. Hearing this, he just smiled and said, Common people, ordinary families...Brother Li hides well enough.

Li Baizhang said helplessly: There is no way to do this. If I meet someone, I will reveal my true identity to him. I am afraid I will not be able to make a close friend. In life, beauty is easy to get, but confidant is hard to find. Brother Lin Don't worry about me just because of my identity.

Lin Xiu didn't have any worries, but he could see Li Baizhang's concerns, so he put his hands on his shoulders and asked, So, last time Brother Li deliberately reminded me of the Yongping Hou Mansion?

Li Baizhang smiled and said: It was hard for me to have a friend like Brother Lin. It is impossible to see you being framed, but Brother Lin, you are also a good means. You actually exiled Yang Xuan from Beijing. Even I don't have this point. think……

Thinking about that incident now, Lin Xiu was actually a little scared.

If it wasn't for the protection of the imperial concubine, even if he overthrew Yang Xuan, he himself would not escape punishment. Lin Xiu would not continue to delve into this topic, and he would need some time to digest the fact that his friend is a prince.

At this time, Li Baizhang asked proactively: By the way, do you still have the fine wine you gave me last time?

Lin Xiu shook her head resolutely and said, No more, I just treasured that small altar.

In fact, he took the time to distill a small altar these days, but it was to get Liu Qingfeng drunk. He had already obtained Li Baizhang's Thunder Power, so there was no need to waste wine with him.

Li Baizhang asked unwillingly: Then where did you buy this wine?

Lin Xiudao: It's a wine peddler. Once he sold wine in front of my house. I smelled the wine very fragrant, so I bought a few jars. Afterwards, there was only one jar left. Last time I let you drink it up. gone.

What about the shopkeeper?

After that, I never saw him again.

...

Li Baizhang had a look of regret, and sighed a few times in succession. At this time, Lin Xiu suddenly had an idea in Lin Xiu's mind. Li Baizhang is the prince, and he has never seen any kind of fine wine. , still full of praise, indicating that there is still a big market for this kind of wine.

It's not that Lin Xiu never thought about starting a business before, but with the current size of the Lin family, it's meaningless if the business is small, and it's impossible to keep it if it's big. In the end, it's inevitable that he will make wedding dresses for others, so he hasn't put it into action.

But it's different now.

He has a prince friend, even if this prince is the least existential one among the princes, he is still a prince. No one dares to annex his business. You can do business with peace of mind.

At that time, Lin Xiu didn't have to work hard to do secret investigations. He couldn't get orders for a long time. Not to mention, he finally got an order, and his perfect body was coveted by such a woman. To be honest, after finishing that order, Lin Xiu's psychological shadow is huge.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiu's eyes became brighter and brighter. He looked at Li Baizhang and asked, Brother Li, how much money do you think is more appropriate to sell the jar of wine I gave you last time?

Li Baizhang recollected it, and said: Good wine is priceless, how can it be measured by silver?

Lin Xiu shook her head and said, Even if it's fine wine, it's still a commodity. Since it's a commodity, there must be a price. Otherwise, how can this business be done?

Li Baizhang was slightly taken aback, and asked, Business?

Lin Xiu waved her hand and said, It's not important, just say, how much is the market price for such a jar of wine?

Li Baizhang thought for a while and said, It depends on the situation.

Lin Xiudao: What's the situation?

Li Baizhang went on to say: Brother Lin is right. For those who love wine, this wine is a priceless treasure, but as a commodity, it is not a good thing to be priceless. If there is only one jar of this wine in the world, then let me spend a thousand I am willing to buy it for two taels. If there are only ten jars of this wine, I would like to spend a hundred taels. If the quantity of this wine is unlimited, then its price will be greatly reduced. After all, it is wine, and it is essentially something to drink , no matter what, the price can't be ridiculously high...

Li Baizhang's words are very reasonable. Some wines in the previous life were sold at ridiculous prices. The price of a bottle of wine can easily be hundreds of thousands or even millions. One bottle, most of the people who bought it were for collection.

And if it is for drinking, then no matter how high the price of wine is, it will not be much higher.

Lin Xiu thought for a while and asked, Brother Li thinks, if such a jar of wine is sold for a long time, how about selling it for ten taels of silver?

Li Baizhang said without hesitation: It's not expensive. You can sell a jar of the kind of wine in the Moon Tower for a few taels of silver. The fine wine you gave me is definitely not much for a jar of ten taels of silver...

The price of wine in this world, relatively speaking, is not too expensive.

The wine sold on the street, depending on the quality of the wine, ranges from a dozen yuan a catty to dozens of yuan a catty. This is a price acceptable to ordinary people and wealthy families. The wine in restaurants is more expensive. It can be sold for a few taels of silver, about a few thousand yuan. Lin Xiu thinks about the price of high-end wine in later generations, and thinks this is still a conscience, but this kind of wine is not something that ordinary people who still need to run around for their lives can drink. up.

Ten taels of silver, that is, 10,000 yuan a bottle of wine in later generations, the price is very expensive, but it is a high-end route. For those rich and powerful, I am afraid that if ten taels of silver falls on the ground, they will not bend down to pick it up.

Lin Xiu already had an idea in her mind, she put her arms around Li Baizhang's shoulders, and said with a smile, I don't know when Brother Li is going to give it to me for the one thousand taels of silver?

Li Baizhang was taken aback: What one thousand taels of silver?

Lin Xiudao: Didn't Brother Li just say that if there was only one jug of fine wine, would you be willing to spend one thousand taels to buy it? Last time I didn't drink a single sip of that jug of wine...

...

In the end, Lin Xiu still didn't get any money from Li Baizhang. His Royal Highness Qin Wang actually cried poorly to him, and said that the friendship between the two of them cannot be measured in taels of silver. Next time, he will invite Lin Xiu to drink to make up for it.

Is it the wine that Lin Xiu is short of? What he is short of is money.

But this time, Lin Xiu did not discuss business with Li Baizhang. Today he has another important matter.

When they came to Tai Hospital, Miss Shuangshuang was also here. Lin Xiu invited her to have dinner at Lin's house and treat a patient by the way, she agreed without hesitation.

She was probably the purest and kindest girl Lin Xiu had ever seen.

Shuangshuang once told Lin Xiu that she actually doesn't like being the imperial physician in the palace. After all, the concubines in the palace don't get sick every day. Most of the time, they call her to take care of their skin.

And her ideal is to be a generation of famous doctors, to help the world and save people, not to be trapped in the palace.

But in life, there are too many things that cannot be controlled.

From the time she awakened her healing ability, she was called into the Academy of Different Arts. In order to cultivate her, the imperial court provided her with countless cultivation resources. She was able to awaken her ability four times at the age of seventeen. It is piled up by Yuanjing.

And her family, after her ability was discovered, jumped from an ordinary commoner to a noble in the royal capital. All this was given to her by the court, and she had no choice in some things.

When Lin Xiu and Shuangshuang came to Lin's house, they saw Liu Qingfeng outside the door.

With his elderly mother on his back, he stood there straight and waited. Lin Xiu strode over and asked, Master Liu is here, why don't you go in?

Liu Qingfeng smiled and said, I'll wait for Master Lin here.

Liu Qingfeng's character is like this, Lin Xiu didn't say much, just said: Go in, this is Miss Shuangshuang, she is my friend, and also an imperial physician at the imperial hospital, let her help Lingtang take a look.

Miss Shuangshuang is a natural genius doctor, she doesn't need to learn any medical theory or pharmacology, just holding the old man's hand, the old man's complexion gradually improved, he lay down on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.

She borrowed Lin Xiu's study, wrote a prescription, handed it to Liu Qingfeng, and said: The old man has a lung disease, and I have cured most of her affected areas, but she is old and weak, and needs to be recuperated, you follow this prescription , just take the medicine for a long time...

The old man's illness is different from Lin Xiu's injury.

The ability to heal has a miraculous effect on the treatment of trauma, and can basically achieve complete healing of the wound, but it is not so good for some chronic diseases, but even so, it can greatly relieve Liu Qingfeng's mother's condition, plus It is very easy for her to prolong her life by three to five years with the treatment of drugs.

Liu Qingfeng took the prescription, and said gratefully: Thank you, the imperial physician, I don't know how much consultation fee you want...

Miss Shuangshuang smiled and said, I don't charge money for seeing a doctor.

Liu Qingfeng said: This...

Lin Xiu also said: Miss Shuangshuang is a real doctor, so you don't have to be polite, let the old man rest well, let's go outside and talk.

After walking out of the room, Miss Shuangshuang was dragged away by Mrs. Uncle Ping'an who couldn't hold back, because she had the idea of ​​canceling her engagement with the Zhao family, and now she was focused on finding a new wife for Lin Xiu.

Obviously, Shuangshuang girl is one of her key targets.

Liu Qingfeng stood at the same spot, suddenly lowered his head with his fists folded, and said to Lin Xiu: I'm sorry, Master Lin, I didn't understand your character before, and I didn't treat you well, I...

Lin Xiu waved her hand and said, Okay, if you are really guilty, you can have a few more drinks with me later.

Liu Qingfeng showed emotion, clasped his fists and said, Definitely!

The Lin Mansion had a very rich dinner today. After the meal, Lin Xiu sent Miss Shuangshuang back first, and when he returned to the Lin Mansion, Liu Qingfeng hadn't left yet.

Miss Shuangshuang said that the old man is weak, and she should sleep until tomorrow morning after this treatment, so Lin Xiu asked the maid to tidy up a wing room, and Liu Qingfeng also stayed.

The sky had completely darkened, Lin Xiu set up a small table in the study, took out her own special fine wine, and said, I admire Master Liu's ability to solve cases, I must have a good drink today.

Liu Qingfeng smelled the aroma of the wine, his throat moved, and couldn't help but said: Master Li, this wine smells so good...

Lin Xiu took out two bowls and said with a smile: That's right, this is my treasure, that is you, I would be reluctant to take it out if it were someone else...

Poured a bowl of wine for Liu Qingfeng, Lin Xiu said: When I first met Mr. Liu, I didn't recruit you, and I didn't provoke you, but Mr. Liu treated me badly. You have to punish yourself for this bowl. .”

It should be! Liu Qingfeng was ashamed, picked up the wine bowl and drank it down.

It's just that the strength of the wine was beyond his imagination. The moment it entered his throat, his mind went blank for a moment, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He had never drank such a good wine, and he couldn't help but be moved. Master Lin was really taking the best wine. Good wine entertained him.

Lin Xiu poured him another cup with a smile, and said: Please Shuangshuang girl to come here to treat Lingtang's illness. I owe her a big favor, and I have to pay her back in the future. Master Liu has to punish himself for this bowl.

It should be so! Liu Qingfeng picked up the wine bowl again and drank it down in one gulp, saying boldly, Thank you, Mr. Lin for your help, Mr. Liu will always remember Mr. Lin's kindness.

One cup of the wine purified by Lin Xiu is worth ten cups before, not to mention that Lin Xiu used the bowl on purpose this time. After a few bowls, he lay down on the table and unconsciously said, Thank you, Mr. Lin. , Liu, Liu will never refuse...

After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and there was no more movement.

Lin Xiu also picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, then shook her head and said in a low voice, I can't bear the power of wine, I can't bear the power of wine...

Then, he also lay down on the table in front of him, but when he fell down, his arms rested on Liu Qingfeng's shoulders.

...

School of different arts.

Before the martial arts class started, Lin Xiu leaned against a tree and kept her eyes on the female student opposite.

The girls who choose martial arts classes are more or less basic in martial arts, and their figures are also slimmer than ordinary girls. The slim training clothes highlight their figures perfectly, and their curves are extremely attractive...

Sitting next to Lin Xiu, Li Baizhang glanced at Lin Xiu, and said strangely: Brother Lin, I always feel that the look in your eyes today is different from before...

Lin Xiu looked away and asked, Is there any?

Li Baizhang nodded and said, It seems brighter than before...

Lin Xiu didn't say much, and looked forward casually. On the other side of the school field hundreds of meters away, an ant was struggling to move a rice grain that was many times larger than its body.

Lin Xiu, who was sitting under the tree, could clearly see the antennae of the ant.

No wonder Liu Qingfeng judges cases like a god. This kind of vision allows him to find any small traces, and even the most skilled veterans cannot avoid leaving traces when committing crimes.

Of course, this ability is also very good for appreciating beautiful women.

The different art of the eyes, the eyes have their own focusing function, it is one kind of feeling when viewed from a distance, and another when viewed close up. The appreciation of 360 degrees without dead angles is not enough for outsiders.

However, although he was far away from those female classmates, after watching for a long time, it was still not good. Lin Xiu looked back, and when he took his right hand out of his sleeve, there was an extra pair of earrings in his hand.

The earrings given by the imperial concubine are natural and exquisite. The main body of the earrings is made of pure gold. The upper part is a hollowed-out butterfly wing. When the two are put together, they can be assembled into a pair of wings. Under the wings, there are blue crystals , shining brightly in the sun.

Lin Xiu was thinking about who she should give this earring to.

Let's send the spiritual sound, Lin Xiu is naturally willing, but Lin Xiu gave it to her, hoping that she would wear it herself, and she always said to keep it for her sister every time, once or twice is fine, the more times, Lin Xiu thought There is also slight displeasure.

After all, it is Zhao Lingyin who treats him best, not Zhao Lingjun. One is a good sister who protects him and guides him to practice, and the other is the woman who caused Lin Xiu many times to kill her. Which one is more important in Lin Xiu's heart? Heavy, needless to say.

This pair of earrings was given to Lingyin, and she would definitely keep it for her sister, so Lin Xiu didn't plan to give it to her this time.

Lin Xiu was considering whether to give Caiyi or not. Based on her understanding of Caiyi, she would definitely not accept such a valuable thing, and the meaning of this gift was different when it was given out. Now, it is not right When Caiyi launched an offensive.

Lin Xiu shook her head, it's not appropriate to give it to anyone, it's better to put it away first, and wait for someone who is destined in the future.

Before he could put it away, a surprised voice came from his ear.

Beautiful earrings!

Lin Xiu raised her head and saw Xue Ning'er walking quickly from the front.

She walked in front of Lin Xiu, knelt down and looked at the earring in his hand, and asked happily: This earring is so beautiful, are you giving it to me?

Facing Xue Ning'er's question, Lin Xiu was speechless.

Say yes, he is really reluctant.

Say no, look at Xue Ning'er's expectant expression and eyes, if he refuses, the energy and painstaking efforts he spent on her before may be in vain.

Lin Xiu knows women too well, so he knows what is the right choice.

He endured the pain in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he asked, Do you like it?

Although Xue Ning'er is not short of jewelry, there are dozens of pairs of earrings alone, but this pair of earrings is so beautiful, she can even tell at a glance that this is something from the palace, and this kind of craftsmanship is only available in those in the palace. Only the top masters have it.

She subconsciously stretched out her hand to take it, but she retracted her hand halfway, pretending to be worried: You gave me such a valuable thing, your fiancée will not be angry if she knows about it?

Lin Xiu felt extremely distressed at first, and suddenly said: Yeah, let's forget it...

Xue Ning'er became anxious, and took the earrings from Lin Xiu's hand, and said, How can you do this, you can't go back on what you give to others, alas...

She looked at Lin Xiu's hand that was held backwards, and after a moment of stunned, she blushed and said, You, what are you doing...

Just as she snatched the earrings, her hand was held by Lin Xiu.

Xue Ning'er was both shy and proud: Could it be that he finally couldn't bear it anymore?

Lin Xiu looked confused for a moment, then immediately let go of her hand and said, I'm sorry, I can't help it, I can't help it...

Xue Ning'er blushed and ran away, but Lin Xiu frowned.

how come……

How come there is no response?

When Xue Ning'er touched him just now, Lin Xiu's body belonged to the ability of copying, and there was no movement at all. Lin Xiu is no stranger to this. When he checked Shuangshuang's pulse last time, that kind of power did not respond. The reason is that when he first awakened , the upper limit of duplication ability is four.

After the Yuanli breakthrough, Lin Xiu copied four more abilities in a short period of time, namely Thunder, Healing, Disguise, and Pupil Art.

But logically speaking, the difference between the first awakening and the second awakening is more than ten times. Why is the upper limit of abilities now only eight? Calculated in this way, every time he awakens, there will only be four more ability positions.

If this is the case, he will have to think twice before copying the ability in the future, and he must choose carefully.

If because of greed, he copied a useless ability, he would occupy the position of an ability, and when he encountered an important ability, he could only watch helplessly.

In today's martial arts class, Lin Xiu didn't have the slightest thought.

I thought that after awakening again, the number of abilities that could be copied would be much more, but I didn't expect that four would be the limit, which was far from what he expected.

There is no record about the ability to replicate in the book, and Lin Xiu has nothing to refer to, so he can only cross the river by feeling the stones.

However, this ability is already against the sky. If it is awakened once, the ability to copy it will be ten times more. I am afraid that after he awakens two or three times, all the strange arts in the world combined will not be enough for him to copy.

Even so, the gap between reality and expectations was too great, and Lin Xiu was inevitably a little disappointed.

Unlike Lin Xiu's disappointment, Xue Ning'er was very happy today.

She has already put on the new earrings given by Lin Xiu. As for her original earrings, she casually gave them to a sister beside her. She liked the earrings before and wore them for a long time, but now she has something she likes more .

Xue Ning'er originally had both appearance and temperament, but after wearing these earrings, she looked even more charming.

These earrings are so beautiful!

Prettier than those sold by Yuanyangzhai!

Ning'er, where did you buy these earrings, I want to buy one too...

...

Hearing the compliments from the people around her, Xue Ning'er felt flattered, and said, Mr. Lin gave this to me. Looking at the craftsmanship, it's obviously something from the palace, and you can't buy it outside...

What!

From Lin Xiu?

He actually gave you such a precious thing, Miss Ning'er, you won't really make him fall in love with you, will you?

If someone from the Zhao family finds out about this, I don't know what they will think...

Xue Ning'er looked at them and explained: Oh, don't get me wrong, we are just good friends, isn't it normal for friends to give gifts?

After the martial arts class, everyone knew that Lin Xiu gave Xue Ning'er a pair of earrings.

Xue Ning'er's suitors looked at Lin Xiu as if they wanted to eat people.

But the female classmates looked at him strangely.

Lin Xiu didn't know, but they knew that Xue Ning'er only regarded him as a prey, and when Lin Xiu really fell under Xue Ning'er's pomegranate skirt, she would kick him away. It will become a joke in the capital.

This poor person has already fallen into Xue Ning'er's trap step by step.

Lin Xiu left the school grounds, smiled and waved goodbye to Xue Ning'er. After turning around, the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

Hehe, Xue Ning'er was too impatient for this incident to spread among the students of the martial arts class.

However, are Lin Xiu's things so easy to get?

It is true that she has taken a small advantage at the moment, but in the future, Lin Xiu will let her return it a hundred times and a thousand times.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiu smiled again.

But he soon stopped laughing.

Because a figure in red clothes blocked his way.

Princess Minghe blocked his only way.

She didn't look at Lin Xiu, but stretched out her hand, and there was a flame beating in the palm of her hand. Lin Xiu was a few steps away from her, and she also felt the temperature of the flame.

He took a few steps back and said cautiously, Princess, what do you want to do?

Princess Minghe smiled mockingly, and said: Continue to be arrogant, why don't you be arrogant, show the courage you had to face this princess when you were in the harem last time...

Sure enough, you shouldn't be too arrogant. She came this time to avenge the last time.

Lin Xiu tried to reason with her, and said, Your Highness, I don't think I have ever provoked the princess. Every time you are the one who troubled me first, please tell me some reason, Your Highness?

Are you calling me unreasonable?

...

Lin Xiu found that he and Princess Minghe couldn't communicate at all. As long as the two of them met, they couldn't speak calmly. He took a deep breath, looked at Princess Minghe, and asked, What does the princess want?

Princess Minghe rolled up her sleeves and said, I don't know why, every time I see you, I want to beat you up.

Coincidentally, Lin Xiu thought so too.

But he didn't say it because he couldn't beat it.

Lin Xiu took another two steps back and said, Your Highness, don't forget, the eighth rule of the courtyard, fighting is prohibited in the academy of different arts.

Princess Minghe sneered, and said, I started a fight, you let them punish me.

This was one of the reasons why Lin Xiu practiced so hard, because if his strength was too low, when an unreasonable woman wanted to beat him up, he could only choose to run.

However, just as Lin Xiu had this idea, a fire line suddenly ignited from the ground, forming a circle of fire, trapping him in the circle.

Lin Xiu mobilized his energy, and a layer of ice began to condense within a foot of the feet, but this ice could not extinguish the flames at all, but melted into water in a very short time...

Princess Minghe's ability was awakened twice more than his, and she suppressed Lin Xiu to death.

However, at the next moment, the ice cube melted by Princess Minghe's flame condensed again, and this time it was faster, directly covering the circle of flames, freezing the flames in the ice.

Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment, because he hadn't done anything just now.

But soon he realized something, turned his head suddenly, looked at a figure in white clothes behind him, and said in surprise: Lingyin, you are back!
