The Rebirth of the Prince: Starting from Not Being a Doglicker

Chapter 227 Waiting

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the flowers in the garden cast their shadows.

In the rear house of the General of Cavalry’s mansion, there is an exquisite courtyard with lush flowers and verdant trees.

Next to the stone archway, a tall and slender figure with a jade crown and white clothes stood under a blossoming tree, tilting her head slightly and stretching out her hand to gently twist the petals.

Although they are father and son, Su An feels deep down that he is different from the old guy in many ways.

In his previous life, Su An was a typical martial artist. He liked to wear white clothes and roam the world with just a sword.

In his heart, there is no such thing as family, country or the world. There is only the joy of revenge and the blood-thirsty hatred in his heart.

Su Yan, on the other hand, likes the solemn and dignified color black. He wears armor and a black cloak all year round. As the most trusted border guard of the entire Jin Dynasty, Su Yan is worthy of the title of the Jin Dynasty's star general, and he cares about his country and the world.

But for the desire to defend his country and bring peace to the world, the old man has lost a lot.

"Brother Su An, it's so late, why are you still here?"

While I was thinking, a questioning voice came from behind me.

It was the voice of a teenager.

Su An picked a flower branch casually and turned to look.

He saw Wang Wu walking towards him along the bluestone path.

He was dressed in black, holding a lantern in one hand and a long sword with a silver scabbard in the other.

Behind her was a personal maid.

"Why, you don't welcome me?"

Su An held the flower branch in his palm, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked at Wang Wudao with a chuckle.

Wang Wu came to Su An, threw the lantern on the grass beside the bluestone path, scratched his head and waved his hand.

"no no."

"I'm a little surprised that you're still here at this late hour, Brother Su An."

Su An smiled but said nothing.

It was late at night. At this time he was waiting at the General of Cavalry's mansion, actually to wait for Wang Lie's reply.

A response to the matter between him and Wang Shishi.

Now the only one standing between Su An and Wang Shishi is Wang Lie.

Madam Wang had told Su An in advance that it was better to persuade Wang Lie as soon as possible. She would persuade Wang Lie tonight, and he would need to wait at the General of Cavalry's mansion.

After all, he wanted to establish a relationship with someone else's daughter, and in the name of taking a concubine. Even if Wang Lie agreed, he would definitely have something to say to Su An after being persuaded.

"Brother Su An, I want to practice swordplay."

Just then, Wang Wu spoke.

Su An took a look at Wang Wu's figure.

Learning martial arts too early will do more harm than good to a martial artist.

People who practice martial arts need to train during the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer to hone their skills.

Young children have not yet fully grown and developed, and facing such high-intensity martial arts training, they are at risk of developing chronic diseases and damaging their physical foundation.

The correct approach is to slowly strengthen the child's body and bones through diet, medicated baths, and basic exercises before the child reaches the appropriate age.

Only after their bodies have grown fully, can they start sharpening their swords and begin formal martial arts training.

Su An looked at Wang Wu, whose height almost reached his shoulders.

He thought to himself that this boy was growing so fast that he was almost as tall as Wang Shishi.

He spoke.

"Practicing sword skills is of course a good idea. You are already at the right age to practice martial arts."

Seeing that Su An agreed, Wang Wu raised the silver-white sword in his right hand in front of Su An, half as if presenting a treasure and half as if showing off.

"Brother Su An, this is the sword I secretly took from my family's treasure house. What do you think of it?"

Su An looked at the long sword in front of him, stretched out his hand and gently drew the sword out of the sheath.

I saw the pale silver sword edge shining coldly under the moonlight.

The center of the sword is engraved with exquisite and complex patterns.

"This sword was made by a skilled craftsman and was forged from refined gold."

After Su An looked at it carefully, he nodded slightly.

"Yes, it is of very high quality."

"But I still suggest you inform your uncle and aunt. Uncle Wang has extraordinary skills and can also teach you how to practice swordsmanship."

Hearing this, Wang Wu shook his head and said.

"My father doesn't use a sword. He is used to using a saber and a longbow. I don't think he can teach me anything."

"Brother Su An, what I want to become is a genius swordsman like Sister Wan'er, and become famous throughout the world."

Wang Wu's young and tender face was full of fighting spirit and admiration for Su Wan.

"So, I want to go to the Marquis' Mansion to find Sister Wan'er and ask her to teach me how to practice sword. Is that okay?"

Wang Wu looked earnest.

"Of course you can. Just treat the mansion as your own home. It's okay to stay there for a long time."

"Thank you so much, Brother Su An!"

Wang Wu cheered.

Su An waved his hand.

"Don't be too happy yet. You still need to ask your sister Wan'er for her opinion on this matter and see if she is free."

"Okay, okay, I'll ask her tomorrow."

Wang Wu nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Then he changed the subject, moved closer to Su An, and spoke in a low voice.

"Brother Su An, there is something I think you may not know yet."

"what's up?"

Su An asked.

"My sister likes you."

Wang Wu said mysteriously.

Su An was stunned when he heard this. He thought it was something else, but it turned out to be this.

He thought about what happened between him and Wang Shishi, which was no longer a secret between the Su and Wang families.

However, Wang Wu was still kept in the dark.

As a brother-in-law, Wang Wu definitely has the right to know.

So Su An nodded and said, "Of course I know."

"Ah, Brother Su An, you already know?"

Wang Wu was stunned for a moment, then continued.

"But Brother Su An, my sister often writes your name on paper, and each time she can fill up a whole page."

"Then my sister just sat there, staring at the paper with her chin in her hand."

"One time, my sister fell asleep on the stone table in the yard, and I heard her secretly muttering your name, Brother Su An, in her dream."

Su An tilted his ear slightly and listened patiently to what Wang Wu said.

"Brother Su An, my sister actually really likes you. Last time, after she knew that you and Sister Qingyu were engaged, she secretly wanted to hang herself, although she didn't dare to in the end..."

Wang Wudao.

“Su An, although my sister doesn’t have much ability, compared with Sister Wan’er and Sister Qingyu, she doesn’t have much talent for cultivation.”

"She is stupid and greedy, always mean, and likes to boss me around, but when she gets impatient she often beats me..."

Su An was a little dazed after hearing these words.

Su An had heard about Wang Shishi's private acts of admiration for him.

But in Wang Wu's mind, is this really the image of her with a gentle personality?

A strange feeling arose in my heart.

Then he noticed something again, Su An's expression became subtle, and he glanced behind Wang Wu.

"Brother Su An, even though my sister is very fierce and stupid, and is much worse than Sister Qingyu, she really likes you, Brother Su An..."

Wang Wu spoke very seriously and did not notice the strangeness in Su An's eyes at all.

Helplessly, Su An coughed.

Only then did Wang Wu realize that something was wrong.

He lowered his head and saw a familiar and slender shadow reflected on the bluestone path under his feet.

Wang Wu suddenly felt that something was wrong. He turned around and saw Wang Shishi standing behind him.

She seemed to have just come out of the bath. She was wearing a spotless white chest-length skirt, her long hair was loose like a waterfall, and her whole body was filled with fragrance.

Wang Wu's personal maid was standing obediently by the side at this moment, watching her ears and nose, with her head down and keeping silent.

Xia'er followed behind Wang Shishi, holding a lantern in one hand and covering her mouth with the other, laughing secretly.
