Chapter 57: The old lady’s life wisdom
On the street outside the Xia family, the eldest prince Yin Zhengye had already left the Xia family and entered a carriage pulled by a dragon colt.
His face was gloomy as he recalled everything that happened today. He never thought that he would be severely beaten in the face by a young man who was a down-and-out prince and was kicked out of the Xiang family.
"Your Highness, are you still worried about what happened just now?" A very beautiful maid in red sat beside him and said softly.
"Well, today, a little person really made me miss him. Xiang Chen, how can a little-known waste have such a big relationship with Wanyao Pavilion?"
Yin Tianye played with the two jade walnuts in his hands with a thoughtful look in his eyes, recalling everything he knew about Xiang Chen.
But apart from knowing that King Xiang had a second son, Xiang Chen, who was born with different appearances and could not practice cultivation, he did not know more about Xiang Chen.
"My servant will send someone to investigate this person's affairs carefully. Your Highness, do you want me to arrange for someone to kill him? He actually dared to insult Your Highness like this today." The maid asked.
"Haha, no need."
Yin Tianye hugged the maid, put one hand into her dress and stroked her gently, and said: "Luluo, send someone to find out everything about this boy during this time. I want to know what changes he has gone through. , Murder is a method only used by people who are forced to have no choice but to use the last resort."
"And I prefer to play with the dead prey slowly." Yin Tianye smiled coldly.
"Yes." Luluo's face was crimson, she was panting, and her dress fell into the carriage...
The birthday banquet lasted until around eight o'clock in the evening.
After it was over, most of the foreign guests almost left the Xia family, but Xia Houwu stayed and went to his residence with Xiang Chen.
The most surprising thing about today's birthday banquet was Xiang Chen's. Countless people were still talking about today's birthday.
From the purple jade grapes given by Xiang Chen to his amazing medical skills, Mr. Hua actually respected him as his teacher, and his mysterious relationship with Wanyao Pavilion. The chief steward of Wanyao Pavilion respected him as the second master and gave him a golden mountain. , slapped the eldest prince Yin Tianye in the face.
Later, Xiang Chen actually used his physical state to forcefully kill Xiang Jin, who was in the Shenzang state.
At today's birthday banquet, the protagonist was supposed to be Mrs. Xia, but Xiang Chen became the most eye-catching person instead, outshining all the Xia family disciples.
Countless people were still talking about Xiang Chen and what happened today when they left the banquet.
However, after this birthday banquet, Xiang Chen will undoubtedly become a famous figure in the entire Xia family. At least no young disciples will dare to provoke Xiang Chen casually anymore.
The momentum with which he killed Xiang Jin today has already frightened many Xia family disciples. They have never been in the arena or on the battlefield. Many Xia family disciples have never experienced such a life-and-death fight, or even killed anyone.
After almost everyone had left, Mrs. Xia still sat where her birthday boy sat.
And below, Xia Fenghu has not left yet.
"Feng Hu, help me out for a walk." Mrs. Xia stood up with a stick and said.
"Yes, mother, please slow down." Xia Fenghu came over and supported Mrs. Xia.
The mother and son walked towards the Xia family's largest back garden, which covers an area of dozens of acres and has extremely beautiful scenery.
"What do you think of today's events?" Mrs. Xia said calmly.
"You mean Xiang Chen? This kid really surprised me a lot."
Xia Fenghu's eyes revealed some sharp edges.
Mrs. Xia smiled faintly and said: "Yes, he was supposed to be a mediocre good-for-nothing young man. Unexpectedly, he gave people unexpected surprises one after another. He mastered medical skills that even the Chinese people were willing to call him their master. He has a close relationship with Wanyao Pavilion. The relationship is unknown, and the cultivation is not what the rumors say, he is just a waste, and the physical realm reverses the killing of Jinzang, such a young man, will he be simple?"
"I'm afraid there are too many secrets hidden in this child that we don't know about." Xia Fenghu said.
"Secretly find out everything that has happened to him since he was kicked out of the Xiang family, find out who he has come into contact with, who he learned his medical skills from, and when did his contact with Wanyao Pavilion originate." The old lady said.
"Yes, my son will let others take care of these things. Today, mother, you agreed to let him enter the Xia Family Martial Arts Scripture Collection Building. Do you really intend to accept this boy? This boy's surname is Xiang after all." Xia Fenghu said with a frown.
"What does it matter? He's already living in the Xia family anyway."
Mrs. Xia looked at the cold bright moon in the sky, her eyes far away, and said: "I have only a few years to live. In the future, the Xia family will still need your support. In addition to you, the Xia family also needs more powerful people." Only with foreign aid can we thrive for a long time."
"If this Xiang Chen is really a Qilin son, he will be able to grow up in our Xia family in the future, and our Xia family will protect him. Now we have Xiang Heng in our hands to restrain him. There is no need to worry that he will not be able to be used by us in the future, and maybe even I will take the initiative to thank our Xia family."
Different people have different experiences, see the future, and have different lengths of things. This old lady Xia is the most sober person in the Xia family.
"Moreover, King Xiang has not completely collapsed. He is not dead, but is being imprisoned. Why? Because there is an army of 400,000 that he personally trained and built to guard the border. Once he dies, there will be no hostages to restrain the border army, and there will be a riot."
"In the future, either Xiang Que or Xiang Chen will inherit this power. Xiang Chen has the support of Wanyao Pavilion. Why doesn't he have the opportunity to master this power? If he masters this power and it can be used by our Xia family, the Xia family will It’s enough to maintain its prosperity for another hundred years, and even become the first family under the royal family.”
"Even if you take ten thousand steps back and say that you cannot control this power, it will not cause any loss to our Xia family. This person, you can't just take one step and think one step at a time. Only by taking one step and thinking a hundred steps can you prevent yourself from stepping into the abyss and being doomed. "
The old lady looked at the bright moon and said quietly, and then continued to walk forward.
"Yes, the child has been taught a lesson. It seems that the child will have to change the Xia family's attitude towards him in the future." Xia Fenghu said.
"Don't be too deliberate. Don't give too much grace. Everyone has a mean nature. If you give him too much, he will only ask for it out of habit. If you don't give it to him that day, he still hates you. Remember, treat him with kindness. For some people, small favors can win people's hearts, but big favors can easily turn into big enemies! Just do it appropriately."
"How is Yunlong? Is there any hope of a breakthrough?" Mrs. Xia suddenly asked for news about her eldest son.
"Brother has failed in his attack twice and is trying for the third time." Xia Fenghu sighed.
"Alas, Yuanyang is easy to cultivate, but Soul Moon is difficult to achieve. Even if he succeeds, he must not make a fuss. King Xiang is the biggest lesson, you know? No matter how sharp the sword is, it still needs a scabbard to hide the edge. As the saying goes, wealth should not be exposed. , The important weapon of the country must not be shown to others. If you reveal it, you will destroy yourself!"
Every word of Mrs. Xia's words are classics of her century-old experience and understanding of how to behave in the world. Having an old man in the family is like having a treasure.
The shadows of the trees were dancing and the moonlight was cold. The old lady sighed, and the figures of Xia Fenghu and him stretched out on the quiet path in the moonlight.
However, some people can’t sit still!
