I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 30

Chapter 30 - Princess Xifeng

At this moment, Xiang Yun was still sitting on his bed, his hands covering an important part of his body. He smiled wryly as he looked at the ice-cold woman who had yet to withdraw her longsword.

"That, cousin, how are you!?" "When I was in Dragon City, I heard that there was a princess with unparalleled martial arts skills with an extraordinary bearing and charming beauty. I didn't expect to see her today, you really live up to your name!"

Xiang Yun could be said to be in a desperate situation. He did not care if it was true or not as he flattered her.

Hearing Xiang Yun's words, then seeing the fawning smile on the latter's face as well as hearing that 'cousin', Xiang Fei felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. However, it could be seen that Xiang Fei'er's expression had turned even uglier.

Just as Xiang Yun was about to continue flattering and flattering this cousin of his, Xiang Fei's arm suddenly jerked!

"Clang!" Withdrawing the longsword, it actually entered Xiang Fei's waist from an unknown place, retracting her slender waist back into the sheath. It was actually a close-fitting, soft sword as thin as a cicada's wing!

"Don't let me see you again, or I'll teach you a lesson!" After saying this, Xiang Fei didn't linger any longer. She turned around and left the courtyard!

At this moment, the round-faced maidservant was still standing there in a daze. Only when Xiang Fei had walked out of the courtyard did she wake up. The latter did not immediately turn around and run away, but her expression had changed to that of a book flipping through a book.

He faced Xiang Yun who still had a panicked expression on his bed, clasped his hands together, and greeted the latter with a 'Greetings Your Highness the Crown Prince' before turning to look at Lin Wan'er, a brilliant smile on his face.

"Sister, it was all a misunderstanding. I didn't know what had happened. If I had known it was the crown prince, I would not have dared to speak nonsense. I hope Sister and the crown prince do not blame me for this."

"Humph, you can leave now!" Lin Wan'er looked at the round-faced maidservant who had changed expressions like she was flipping through a book with displeasure. She waved her hand, indicating for her servant to leave.

The round-faced maid seemed to have received an amnesty. She was sweating cold sweat as she hurriedly left the yard to find her master, thinking that if her master was bullied by his highness, then there was nothing she could do about it. After all, he was the son of the King, and even the current Emperor had to respect him!

After Xiang Fei had left the courtyard, she had looked at Lin Wan'er innocently from within the room. Her gaze was like that of a wronged child, making Lin Wan'er both angry and amused.

"Wan-Er, is that evil woman really a princess?"

"You're still calling me fierce woman? Weren't you just calling me a cousin just now?" Lin Wan'er said snappily.

"Isn't that the same as using her sword to point at me? Otherwise, if I still call her elder cousin, even calling her a s.l.u.t would be fine!" "Hmph, this wicked woman took over my house, slept on my bed, and then still dares to kill me. What a wicked woman!"

Lin Wan'er looked at the grudging Xiang Yun and smiled wryly.

"Your Highness, please don't mention it. When I first entered the palace, I heard that it was indeed the Princess Pheonix who took up residence in your courtyard, and that the woman just now was undoubtedly a princess. I heard that she was naturally arrogant and domineering, and even the princes of the royal palace fear her, so she didn't stab you once, which is already considered good enough."

"Ah, this woman is so amazing?" Xiang Yun, on the other hand, had not heard much about Xiang Fei's deeds.

"Of course. I heard that when this Princess Pheonix went out of the palace in disguise and returned to the Dragon City after her experiential learning outside, she was treated as an ordinary girl from a good family by the Minister of Rites' youngest son. She was actually impolite to him and was castrated on the spot by Princess Pheonix!"

Lin Wan'er recounted the intrepid story of Princess Fei Feng, scaring Xiang Yun so much that he couldn't resist the urge to cover a certain part of his body with his hands.

"Good boy, I didn't expect that I would actually provoke such a fiend!" Xiang Yun couldn't help but mutter to himself!

"Humph, that's impossible. If it weren't for this servant coming in time, you might have been accidentally killed by the princess of the pheasant phoenix race!" Lin Wan'er pouted her seductive lips in glee.

"Sigh …" Xiang Yun revealed a grateful expression as he said to Lin Wan'er, "My little wife is still the one who cares about me. Other people just flew away when they were faced with a great calamity. We're really in a perilous situation here!"

"Ah! Prince, you're talking nonsense again!" Lin Wan'er had not expected Xiang Yun to still have the mood to joke around with her after her survival. She was embarra.s.sed by Xiang Yun's words.

After a while, Lin Wan'er brought Xiang Yun a new set of clothes and changed into them. Lin Wan'er said to Xiang Yun, "Your Highness, since you've already returned to the palace, shouldn't you go and meet with the prince?"

Hearing this, Xiang Yun shook his head like a rattle, "I don't want to see him. He doesn't like me anyway, and seeing him instead makes him uncomfortable. I'm not happy either, so it's better if everyone doesn't get annoyed."

After Xiang Yun had fused with his memories, he felt dissatisfied with the actions of this prince's father. This so-called tiger poison was not something he would eat, yet this father of his had almost tried to kill him several times.

For such a vicious father, no matter how great his reputation or how strong his strength was, he was still not a qualified father for Xiang Yun. Therefore, there was still some resentment in his heart, naturally, he did not want to pay him a visit.

Lin Wan'er looked at Xiang Yun somewhat helplessly. She wanted to urge him on, but having grown up together with Xiang Yun, she knew that the prince had left behind many scars in the crown prince's heart. How could she be able to resolve the differences between father and son with just a few words?

After some thought, Lin Wan'er added, "By the way, Your Highness, when I was pa.s.sing by Fleeting Time, I heard that Second Son is back. Would you like to meet him?"

"Second Brother is back?" Upon hearing Lin Wan'er's words, Xiang Yun's eyes immediately lit up.

Prince Jian had three sons, the eldest son Xiang Jinglei, the second son Xiang Jinghong, and the third brother was naturally Xiang Yun. Amongst these two brothers, Xiang Yun's closest kin was his second brother, Xiang Jinghong.

Back then, his own father, Xiang Lingtian, had almost personally taken Xiang Yun's life. It was only because Xiang Jinghong had gone all out to protect him that he had been able to protect this little life of Xiang Yun's.

When Xiang Yun was young, the latter would often give Xiang Yun some of the army's weapons and armors as toys. Even when Xiang Yun had been demoted to Qin Feng City, Xiang Jinghong had always tried his best to understand Xiang Yun's situation, giving him help and concern.

On the other hand, Xiang Yun's eldest brother, Xiang Jinglei, was the complete opposite of his second brother, Xiang Jinghong. Xiang Jinglei's personality was explosive, and he hated his third brother as much as he hated evil; the latter did not have Xiang Jinghong's tolerance or concern for him. Instead, he was incomparably disgusted, believing that his third brother was a despicable person who would often teach Xiang Yun a lesson, not sparing him any face at all.

If Xiang Yun didn't have two Xiang Jinghong to protect him, he probably would've been bullied to such an extent by Xiang Lei. Because of this, within the entire Duke's Mansion, Xiang Yun felt a sense of familiarity towards his second brother. The two of them could be said to be talking about everything!

When he heard Lin Wan'er had heard that his second brother had returned, Xiang Yun couldn't wait to visit him. He wanted to drink with his second brother and chat with him about the events of the past year!

At this moment …

Xiang Yun tidied himself up, then seemed to recall something. He got Lin Wan'er to send over two guards, and from one of the carriages in the caravan, a mahogany box was brought over. They then proceeded to the side yard where their second brother, Xiang Jinghong, was.

Xiang Yun brought Lin Wan'er and the two guards excitedly to Fleeting Garden, which was not far from the Xiang Yun's courtyard. When the servants outside saw that it was Xiang Yun, they did not dare stop him, allowing him entry.

Arriving at the door to Xiang Jinghong's room, he saw that the door was tightly shut. Xiang Yun took over the wooden chest in the guard's hand, then turned to look at Lin Wan'er with a meaningful glance, indicating that Lin Wan'er should bring the two of them to wait for him elsewhere. Xiang Yun himself did not rush in.

He dipped his finger into the saliva, his fingertip gently digging into the window paper. Soon, a small hole appeared in the window, and the latter withdrew his finger, taking advantage of the hole to peek inside.

In the inner and outer chamber, a tall and st.u.r.dy looking young man with a valiant countenance similar to Xiang Yun sat upright on an armchair, a thin book in his hands. He was engrossed and engrossed in reading.

Looking at the young man's solemn and decent figure, it seemed like he was studying some military strategy or historical book.

However, Xiang Yun, the younger brother who was in tacit agreement with the man, how could he not know that this cold and depressed second brother only had to squint to see a corner of the cover of the book.

"Heh heh." Xiang Yun laughed evilly before tiptoeing to pick up the box placed on the ground. He walked to the main entrance of the room and pressed his hand on the two wooden doors as he counted three times in his heart!

When he reached three, Xiang Yun abruptly pushed open the door with great force and shouted, "Second Brother, Royal Father is here!"

Xiang Yun had pushed open the door as fast as lightning. Adding on the words "Royal Father is here", he immediately sat upright in his armchair, staring straight ahead at the young man in the book in front of him as he let out a strange cry.

He held the book in his hand, and with lightning speed, he stuffed it under the cushion below him. Then with lightning speed, the latter casually picked up a military ancient book on the desk, casually flipped it open to a page, and with a frown, he carefully read it.

If not for the fact that Xiang Yun had already become a martial pract.i.tioner, and had also gone through the Purification of his Marrow with the Five Poison Wine, he would not have been able to see the latter's ingenious method of changing pillars.

"Heh heh." Xiang Yun had not even spoken yet!

"Third brother!"

Almost at the same instant he heard this' vulgar 'laughter, Xiang Jinghong recognized who it was.

In the next moment, Xiang Yun had already strode into the hall. Seeing Second Brother Xiang Jinghong sitting upright in his teacher's chair, even straighter and wearing a pleasantly surprised expression on his face, Xiang Yun's smile didn't waver in the slightest.

"Second brother, what are you doing? "He locked himself up in his room in the middle of the day."

Xiang Jinghong didn't immediately answer Xiang Yun's question. The latter stuck out his head and looked behind Xiang Yun for a while, but when he saw no one behind him, he could tell that Xiang Yun had just been playing a joke on him.

Xiang Jinghong let out a long sigh of relief, then stared at Xiang Yun with a feigned viciousness, saying, "You brat, you've got guts! Even your second brother dares to tease you, and you actually dare to use your father to threaten me."

Hearing this, Xiang Yun had an innocent look on his face as he said, "Second Brother, when did I make fun of you? You're still studying hard in the daytime, studying how to use the soldiers. If Father saw this, he wouldn't even praise you!"

Hearing this, Xiang Jinghong's face twitched, exhaling unnoticeably in his heart as he resentfully said to himself, "Fortunately, this kid didn't see through anything."
