Chapter 851: Chapter 851: That Fourth Prince, He Looks Like You
Having snapped back to his senses, Wild Brother quickly regained his imposing demeanor, "Oh, nothing much, just feeling a bit surprised. If you see your second sister-in-law when you return, could you pass on my regards to her?"
"Of course, you’re childhood friends who share innocent ties, it’s only proper to send her your regards," the Fourth Prince said with a smile.
After chatting with the Fourth Prince, Wild Brother quickly returned to his seat by Lu Jianxi’s side. Knowing that Wild Brother had just gone to speak with the Fourth Prince, Lu Jianxi couldn’t help but ask, "Wild Brother seems quite acquainted with the Fourth Prince?"
"It’s actually our first meeting," Wild Brother said, and then poured himself a glass of water, "I was just finding out some information from him."
"I see," Lu Jianxi glanced back and forth between the Fourth Prince and Wild Brother, "But why do I feel... that you and the Fourth Prince look somewhat alike?"
"Look alike?" Wild Brother also glanced at the Fourth Prince before chuckling, "Not really, right?"
"Truly, there’s some resemblance, the nose, the chin are quite similar. I’m very accurate at recognizing people. When I first entered the Military Camp and didn’t know anyone, I specifically learned some techniques to identify my brothers in the camp by their features."
Wild Brother laughed, "It’s not strange to be similar. In this vast world, there are always some who look alike. After all, faces are much the same."
"Right," Lu Jianxi took another glance at the Fourth Prince in the distance, who happened to wave at her at that moment. She quickly shifted her gaze away.
What does it matter if they look alike? Too young and unripe, not the type she liked.
...
The martial arts competition had already commenced, with pairs dueling throughout the morning. Those who lost were directly eliminated, and it was naturally an embarrassment to exit the stage. Almost all who stepped down would sneak a glance at Lu Jianxi’s position. Seeing her indifferent, icy stare, they would shake their heads, feeling inferior and ashamed.
Lu Jianxi watched for a long time, feeling more and more relaxed.
In the batch that morning, there was certainly no one who could defeat her. Either their Martial Arts foundation was too weak, or they hadn’t experienced battlefield situations, lacking the ruthlessness that comes with it.
Lu Jianxi then turned to look at Wild Brother, who was watching very intently. He truly came with the intention of helping her, so he was observing the competitors’ movements closely.
Not until Lu Jianxi chuckled did Wild Brother turn and ask, "General Lu seems in a good mood?"
"These people are simply overestimating themselves. It looks like I won’t be getting married this year either."
Wild Brother looked carefully and commented, "These men certainly can’t compare to you in Martial Arts, but they have strong backgrounds, and many have good characters. If you take a fancy to any, you could just pretend to lose when the time comes."
Lu Jianxi laughed lightly once more, "I’ve grown wild, good character alone can’t tame me; I also need someone with backbone."
Wild Brother shook his head right away, "In Martial Arts, moves are about combining strength and gentleness. Being so strong, you naturally need a gentle man to be with you so your household can be harmonious. Otherwise, as His Majesty said, a fight might truly lift the roof off."
Lu Jianxi simply smiled, "I still need to actually like him, though."
Thus, the morning passed without incident or alarm.
It wasn’t until the afternoon that a highly skilled martial artist suddenly appeared on the stage, someone from Dashun.
Dashun had only just sent an Envoy for peace negotiations, marking the official resumption of diplomatic relations. However, after several years of conflict, the Dashun populace still harbored resentment, especially against this competitor named Mu Tuo.
