Chapter 24: Once in a Life
Horse-drawn carriages were parked inside and outside the university mansion, and the huge martial arts arena outside the main entrance of the university mansion was now crowded, as if a grand performance was about to be held here.
Even, some princes and princesses in the Forbidden City came over to join in the excitement and booked a box in the martial arts arena early.
All of this is due to the gambling fight between Princess Yitai and Tang Xiao three months ago.
In order to prevent Tang Xiao from cheating, Yi Taigong took the initiative to use his own energy to send invitations to all the princes and nobles in Taijing City that she could notify, asking them to come over to observe her and Tang Xiao's divorce fight.
Princess Yitai didn't know that the engagement turmoil a few months ago, as well as this divorce contract fight, had long become a gossip rumor that everyone in Taijing City liked to see, especially those idle and boring ladies and ladies in the aristocratic princely mansion, including the princes and princesses in the palace, and even some princes, even if Princess Yitai did not send an invitation, they would come over to join in today's excitement.
There are also those forces who are afraid to hate Tang Yuan, the Marquis of Zhenguo, at this time, they also came to the university mansion one after another, wanting to see the jokes of Tang Yuan's son Tang Xiao, and see how he was beaten by Princess Yitai, and then canceled the marriage contract with Princess Yitai in pain.
And people have a premonition that this will be an extremely exciting scene of 'the toad wants to eat swan meat', but the swan meat was not eaten, but was trampled by the swan and kicked away. Some people even have a hunch that this tragic topic with Tang Xiao as the protagonist can replace the bizarre disappearance of Xu Ming, Huang Quan, and the third young master, and become a new topic of conversation for boring people, so that the entire Taijing City can talk about it after dinner for a whole year.
As a result, all the people in Taijing who have the spirit of gossip and are idle to the point of pain have gathered here.
When he first entered the university mansion, Tang Xiao didn't know that these people were all here for him, he just thought that it was almost the end of the year, and what grand ceremony was to be held in the university mansion, until he completed the routine report to the university mansion, and when Zhu Gan ran over to find him, he knew that these people were all here for him.
Tang Xiao snorted coldly, of course he knew why these people came, if it weren't for his jokes, they wouldn't be so elated.
The cancellation of the marriage between the Marquis of Zhenguo and the royal family is something that many nobles in Taijing City like to see, and Tang Xiao was violently beaten by Princess Yitai in public, which is just a bad breath for the oppression they once received from Tang Yuan, the Marquis of Zhenguo.
Tang Xiao often wondered one thing, that is, why his father, Tang Yuan, who was the Marquis of Zhenguo, had erected so many enemies in the court. Until now, Tang Xiao found that except for Zhu Kun, who had no power in the court, the Marquis of Zhenguo had almost no allies.
When Tang Xiao's figure appeared in the martial arts arena, nearly 1,000 people in the audience suddenly boiled, and it was obvious that 90% of them were coaxing.
Tang Xiao, the most typical second generation of officials in the Ming Dynasty, the second generation of the rich and the son of a gentleman, is the object of envy and hatred of most people in this world, who will they coax if they don't coax him?
Zhu Xian'er, the first beauty in Taijing City, the princess of Yitai, who is loved by thousands of people, is the natural king of topics, and any topic related to her will cause heated discussions on the streets and alleys.
It's really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these two people to meet together.
Tang Xiao coldly looked around at the stands of the martial arts arena, those who were bright, dark, hateful, jealous, all those who wanted him to lose face or even die, he secretly swore in his heart, sooner or later, one day, I will trample you all under my feet!
If you dare to provoke me, if you dare to rebel against me, there is only one word, death!!
Princess Yitai was wrapped in a pair of tights with a golden silk embroidered dragon pattern, setting off her beautiful figure, and a mink coat was draped on her shoulders, and she was sitting with a group of princesses and princesses and scholars from the princely family.
Xu Qiao's gaze at Tang Xiao was the most vicious, a few months ago, the Xu family proposed marriage first, and the emperor had been delaying this family affair on the grounds that Princess Yitai was young, but he didn't expect that when the Tang family proposed to the emperor, the emperor actually agreed, ignoring the face of the Xu family, and engaged Princess Yitai to the young master of the Tang family.
And Xu Qiao knew very well in his heart that his younger brother Xu Ming Shiyou* was murdered by an unknown villain because he wanted to be angry for him, and his whereabouts are still unknown, and it is likely that he is no longer alive. Of course, this account must also be recorded on Tang Xiao.
For Princess Yitai, ruining the marriage contract with Tang Xiao does not mean that she has to marry into the Xu family, she is dissatisfied with Tang Xiao, a waste material of martial arts, but she just has no bad feelings towards Xu Qiao, what she is concerned about now is this fight with Tang Xiao.
Princess Yitai never thought that this martial arts waste material could improve in the past three months, so in these three months, she only practiced normally, and did not compete with the sun and the moon like Tang Xiao, and used one day as five or ten days.
"I didn't expect so many people to want to see Tang Xiao's jokes!" The stands around the arena were full of people.
"You can't let the Marquis of Zhen Guo hear this."
"Haha, what if you hear it, originally his Tang family was a hero and a fool, and Tang Yuan didn't know it."
"Princess Yitai, don't show mercy to her subordinates, it's best to give that waste material to ......"
"What did you give?"
"Hahaha, you all get the idea...... Let him completely lose that function......"
"The scrap is coming, be quiet, don't let him hear it."
"What about that? Are you still afraid of a waste material thinking about you? Can the Marquis of Zhenguo protect him for the rest of his life? Hum! ”
Hearing the discussion around her, Princess Yitai looked in the direction of everyone's fingers, Tang Xiao was walking in the martial arts arena step by step from there, he looked a little lonely, and even his friend Zhu Gan didn't dare to stand beside him, probably because he was afraid of being drowned by everyone's saliva.
Dozens of meters away, Princess Yitai and Tang Xiao's eyes looked at each other, I don't know why, Princess Yitai's heart trembled for no reason......
In three months, Tang Xiao seemed to have changed a lot, he was at least ten centimeters taller than three months ago, and became as tall as his father Tang Yuan. And not only that, but his figure has also become extremely muscular and burly, giving people the feeling of being reborn.
Tang Xiao's cold gaze was like a sharp sword, and the place where it swept was suddenly silent. There are naturally some strong masters in the stands of the martial arts arena, and they are a little confused at the moment, why does this Tang Xiao seem to be surrounded by the kind of powerful aura that only martial artists above the ground level have?
Maybe it's a delusion?
Through Tang Xiao's cold gaze, the onlookers all felt an extremely tough soul, a soul that seemed to have come out of hell, and this soul was so tenacious that even if they just looked at each other in the air, they would tremble in the depths of their souls.
It's so weird!
Tang Xiao walked all the way into the martial arts arena, and he clearly felt the soul behind the countless eyes in the martial arts arena, as if he wanted to overwhelm him, push him down, or at least make it difficult for him to move, but whenever his cold gaze looked back in the direction where the pressure came, that pressure suddenly dissipated invisibly.
This is the confrontation between soul and soul, in the previous life, after experiencing so much suffering, no one has ever defeated this tough soul, in this life, after the baptism of heaven and earth vitality, he has become more tenacious and stronger, and of course it is impossible to succumb to any pressure from the outside world.
Tang Xiao proudly walked to the center of the martial arts arena, with his hands behind his back, looking around the stands, he had an aura of contempt for all beings in the world.
The strong are not only by force, but also ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
