Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 839 - 839 Saving Pei Lang (4)



839 Saving Pei Lang (4)

“How can you tell what he looks like with a mask on?” Shen Qiu said, “Mother, you’re too biased. What if he has a scar on his face and is very ugly? Besides, how can you tell his character? I don’t think he’s a good person.”

“What do you know?” Luo Xueyan said, “He’s giving off a gentle and scholarly vibe. His bearing is good. Even if his face is really not that good-looking, his bearing can make up for it. Besides, I’ve seen more people than you have. I can tell his character just by looking at him. It’s not something you can pretend.”

Shen Qiu pouted. “You’re just biased.”

“Shen Qiu, have you had enough for today?” Luo Xueyan glared at him. When she thought of what had happened previously, she was immediately furious. “Why are you targeting him? If you have the time to be jealous of others, why don’t you practice your martial arts? If word gets out that you lost to someone, what will your subordinates look at you?”

Shen Qiu quickly said, “I understand, Mother. I’ll go and find Father to practice martial arts now! Immediately! Right away!” As he spoke, he fled.

Luo Xueyan looked at the wooden box on the table. Shen Miao’s wedding dress was inside. She thought that she had to lock such expensive clothes before she could feel relieved. She picked up the box and was about to put it in the storeroom when she saw that there seemed to be a compartment on the lid of the box.

Suspicion rose in her heart. She opened the compartment and a small booklet wrapped in red cloth immediately fell out.

On the other side, Shen Qiu was talking to Shen Xin.

“Father, that Prince Rui has definitely been practicing martial arts for more than a few years. From the looks of it, he must have been practicing martial arts since he was young. Otherwise, it’s impossible for him to defeat me in a few moves.” Shen Qiu thought for a moment and said, “Besides, his moves are very ruthless, even more so than the soldiers. Logically speaking, a member of the royal family doesn’t have to learn ruthless moves.” After saying that, he said hatefully, “I let my guard down this time. Next time I spar with him, I’ll definitely beat him up!”

Shen Xin waved his hand and said, “Enough, you’re not his match.”

“Father!” Shen Qiu was stunned. “Don’t tell me you think poorly of me just because I made a mistake! I really let my guard down this time. I didn’t know he was hiding his ability! I…”

“This is not all he’s hiding.” Shen Xin interrupted him with a complicated expression.

“Father?” Shen Qiu was puzzled. “What do you mean? Is he hiding something else from us? Is he a bad person?”

“Alright, just leave.” Shen Xin said, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. Practice your martial arts well.”

Shen Qiu didn’t know what to say.

He had only lost once. Why did everyone look at him like he was a weak scholar?

Shen Qiu left angrily. He planned to go to the drill ground to spar with others every day from today onwards. However… Before Shen Qiu left, he couldn’t help but glance at Shen Xin and saw that Shen Xin looked very worried.

Shen Xin was indeed very worried. At this moment, this worry was gradually magnified in his heart, to the point where he could not hide it. He wanted to do something to divert his attention, but the more he did this, the more he thought about it.

However, he could not tell anyone. If he told anyone, it would cause a huge change in the current situation.

He asked Shen Qiu to test Prince Rui’s martial arts because he wanted to see if Prince Rui was qualified to be the son-in-law of the Shen family. Before today, Prince Rui was just a name. The Shen family had no clue what kind of a person he was. They treated Prince Rui as an ambitious person with evil intentions.
