Chapter 661: The Storm Changes
"It's time to drink water" Xuan'er walked out of the room with milk tea in her smile, Chen Lin slashed the overweight giant sword in her hand on the trunk of the tree, took the towel from Xuan'er's hand, and wiped the sweat off her face.
Fu Mujin looked at Chen Lin with appreciation, this young man's physical strength was beyond his imagination, it seemed that the kyanite had quietly changed his body structure, and after his correct pointing, Chen Lin's strength had changed with each passing day.
Chen Lin gulped down the milk tea in the cup, poured another cup unsatisfied, and drank three cups in a row before wiping the corners of his lips and sitting down opposite Fu Mujin, "Old man, how do you see how I behaved tonight?"
Fu Mujin smiled indifferently, "Compared to when I first met you, I have naturally made a lot of progress, but there is still a long way to go before I ask for it." ”
Chen Lin said, "If you continue like this, I don't know when you will be able to practice your kung fu of resisting water as a sword",
Fu Mujin shook his head and said, "Your body structure is completely different from ours, you are far inferior to us in terms of innate physical ability, but your acquired expansion power is far superior to ours, until your physical strength reaches a certain level, you will not be able to practice profound martial arts at all, otherwise you will only be quick but not attainable." ”
Chen Lin understood this truth, he smiled and said, "Practicing martial arts is not to fight, kill and kill, strengthening the body is my original purpose." ”
Fu Mujin glanced at Chen Lin meaningfully and said, "Is this really the case?"
Chen Lin laughed, of course he didn't do it for any purpose to strengthen his body, learn the art of fighting, and improve his combat effectiveness, one was to deal with the dangerous enemies around him, and the other was to have the opportunity to find the spars in the future and take them into his hands.
"In a few days, your physical strength should be able to control the Holy Dragon Tattoo on your right arm, but if you want to really exert its energy, you must go through a long and arduous training. ”
He put down the teacup, took out a worn-out parchment scroll from his arms, and solemnly handed it to Chen Lin, "This is my experience in martial arts, and it also records some information related to spars, which you may use in the future." ”
Chen Lin was surprised and said, "Old man, you want to leave"
Folmudin nodded, "There's something I have to do, it's time to leave." ”
Through this period of contact, Chen Lin unconsciously regarded Fu Mujin as his own relatives, and when he heard that he was leaving, he suddenly felt unrelenting, "I don't have any relatives in this imperial capital, if you are always willing, take me with you." ”
Fu Mujin smiled and shook his head, "Chen Lin, some things must be done by myself" He stared at Chen Lin and said, "While improving your physical fitness, you must learn to control yourself, I believe that one day, you will achieve the wish in your heart." ”
Chen Lin sighed and said, "Actually, I don't want to stay here, the crown prince Xuan Kite has a bad life for me, and Adams has also offended me, and if I stay here, I will be framed by them sooner or later." ”
Fu Mujin smiled and said, "Your own affairs can only be solved by yourself, no one can help you," he lowered his voice and said to Chen Lin, "The secret between us should never be known to others." ”
Chen Lin nodded emphatically.
If it weren't for the fact that he was going to pay tribute to Yanyue, Chen Lin would not have set foot in Maisie's farm at all, and now his identity is no longer the slave who was called by Maisie to drink, and the matter of the jade plate given to him by Emperor Xuan Sizhe has already spread all over the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, and in the eyes of everyone, Chen Lin seems to have become the benefactor of the emperor, even Maisie has to give him three points.
When Chen Lin came to Yanyue's grave, she happened to see Maisie, she stood quietly in front of the pond, staring at the water lilies, thoughtfully, hearing Chen Lin's footsteps, she hurriedly turned around, and wiped her pretty face subconsciously, but the reddish circles under her eyes still suggested that she should have just cried.
"You're here," Maisie gave Chen Lin a rare smile.
Chen Lin nodded coldly, he had always blamed Yan Yue's death on Maisie's body, and the wounds in his heart had not been erased as time passed.
Maisie's gaze fell on Yan Yue's grave, and she said thoughtfully, "If Yan Yue knew that you cared about her like this, she would be very happy in her heart." ”
Chen Lin couldn't help but think of the tragic situation when Yan Yue died, a tingling pain in his heart, and his eyes showed a light of hatred.
Maisie's eyes did not look at Chen Lin: "A woman who has someone to care about is happy." ”
Chen Lin said sarcastically, "It seems that Boss Mei must be very happy, isn't General Lang Yuan always worried about you?"
Maisie sighed faintly and said, "In his heart, maybe I will never be as important as my military achievements." ”
Chen Lin frowned slightly, not understanding why she would sigh like this.
"He's already on his way to the frontier this morning"
Chen Lin nodded slowly, finally knowing why Maisie's mood was low.
Maisie said, "It would be nice if there was no war in this world."
Chen Lin suddenly discovered that this ruthless slave owner also has a sentimental side, where there are people, there will be strife, where there are countries, there will be wars, women all over the world like to dream, but the reality is often cruel.
Chen Lin didn't want to continue talking to her, turned around and wanted to leave, took two steps and turned back, "There is something I have always wanted to ask you, whether the contract was burned"
Maisie's pretty face showed an extremely sly smile, "Is that contract still important to you now?"
Nameless anger rose in Chen Lin's heart, he could almost conclude that Maisie must have kept the contract he signed at the beginning, although the contract no longer has much meaning to him, but the hatred and insults in the past made him unforgettable, Chen Lin said coldly, "Do you know why Wolf Yuan has always been unwilling to marry you"
Maisie's heart trembled, this was the last thing she wanted to mention, and this damn Chen Lin took it out to stimulate her nerves.
"Because you are too smart and cunning, there is no man in this world who likes a selfish woman like you," Chen Lin said almost viciously.
Maisie's pretty face completely lost its color, and she suddenly screamed, "Get out of the way, bastard, you get out of the way for me"
Chen Lin had expected her to have such a reaction, and strode out of the door, in all fairness, after he stimulated Maisie, he did not feel the pleasure of revenge, but felt a trace of guilt in his heart, no matter what Maisie had done, it was always too cruel to say such a thing, and even lost the demeanor of a man.
I don't know when a drizzle fell in the air, Chen Lin waved his hand to wipe the rain off his face, and looked back at the farm, which was already shrouded in smoke and rain, and I don't know if Maisie is still crying sadly
The war between the Xuanwu Empire and the Lander Empire intensified, and the Xuanwu Emperor Xuan Sizhe finally decided to send reinforcements to the army in person under the situation of his own defeat and retreat. In the rainy season, the entire imperial capital is gloomy and gloomy, and it rains all day long, shrouded in a sad and gloomy atmosphere.
Chen Lin's clinic business was obviously much colder, perhaps because most of the men in the imperial capital were sent to the front. Prince Xuanyuan and Lester and others also seemed to have changed their attention because of the changes in the war, and no one came to provoke Chen Lin, a little doctor. The eldest princess Xuan Siling has never taken the initiative to find him since she was separated from Chen Lin in the palace that day. Chen Lin was happy to be idle, and most of his time was spent practicing the martial arts taught to him by Fu Mujin. The control over himself has also become stronger, the dragon tattoo on his right arm has never appeared again, and when he sees beautiful women, he does not have the same impulse as he did at the beginning. The most prominent manifestation of this is that he is in the same room with the beautiful Xuan'er, but he always abides by etiquette and does not make any excessive actions.
After Fu Mujin left the imperial capital, Chen Lin also began to plan his future whereabouts, through what he learned, this continent is not quiet, and it is difficult to find a comfortable paradise outside the perilous imperial capital with bloody battlefields everywhere.
Xuan'er seemed to see the clue from Chen Lin's actions, all she could do was to take better care of Chen Lin and silently care about his life.
During this time, everyone in the imperial capital was shrouded in a thick haze, and the crown prince Xuanyuan was no exception, unlike others, he was not worried about the temporary disadvantage of the Xuanwu army, but for a secret decree from his father before the emperor's conquest.
"What you said is true," Xuan Yuan stared at Huo Gao, the head of the palace, with a gloomy face.
Huo Gao's white and chubby face did not have any expression, the nails of his right hand studded with diamonds were raised high, and he said sharply, "It's true, the emperor did personally draw up a secret decree before the expedition, and there is a good chance that the secret decree has fallen into the hands of the princess." ”
Xuan Yuan sneered, "What is Manager Huo suspicious?"
Huo Gao said, "Doesn't the prince think it's strange that the emperor personally conquered, but the affairs of the state were not handed over to you to deal with, but instead designated Sima Tai, Pulongqi and Adams to jointly take charge of the three ministers, and before the expedition, he drew up a secret decree of the gods, and on the day of the drafting, he personally summoned the king of Baoshu, Xunne."
Xuan Yuan interrupted him impatiently, "They are all important ministers of the court, what's so strange about my father summoning them?"
Huo Gao smiled and said, "Baoshu Wang Xunne is the princess's own uncle, Pu Longqi is a resolute opponent of the prince, Sima Tai and Adams have their own calculations, it seems that they are not in the same camp as the prince, doesn't the prince have a sense of crisis?"
Xuan Yuan trembled violently in his heart, Huo Gao's words pierced his heart like a needle, his father must have arranged everything before the expedition, if it was really like Huo Gao said, he was very likely to change his original intention of passing on the throne to himself, and suddenly remembered the words of the eldest princess Xuan Siling that day, the throne of Xuanwu Kingdom is not necessarily held by a man, and it is not impossible for the father to abolish himself as the princess Xuanbo. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the first thing he needed was to find out whose hands the secret was intended and what was written on it.
Huo Gao saw that Xuan Kite's heart had already been shaken, and said in a low voice, "There is another coincidental thing, after Your Majesty's personal conquest, the princess fell ill, and this illness really came by coincidence." ”
Xuan Kite's eyes flickered, "You mean"
"The princess is not a scheming person, it is difficult to say whether this illness is true or not, and the old slave is worried that she will use this method to make the prince relax his vigilance against her"
Xuan Kite nodded, "According to Chief Huo, what should I do?"
Huo Gao's white and chubby face was covered with a layer of murderous intent, "Immediately make a decision to fight for all the forces that can be united, and seize the opportunity to remove all obstacles"
