But today seeing Luo Xue Yan and Prince Rui chatting happily, Shen Xin understood his wife the best and Luo Xue Yan was very satisfied with Prince Rui.
If Prince Rui had already made Luo Xue Yan satisfied, then regarding Prince Rui, it was not as simple as just a name on the Imperial edict. For him to become the son-in-law of the Shen family, he would need to go through all kinds of harsh tests.
Martial arts was one of them. One did not need his martial arts to be unrivalled but he must be able to protect Shen Miao's safety. As a woman's husband, if his wife was in danger, at least he would be able to protect her safety.
Shen Xin was thinking like this and did not expect that in this competition, there would be some knack to it.
The few juniors could not see it clearly but he and Luo Xue Yan could see it clearly. Especially Shen Xin, he could even see the moves that both of them used when they were confronting each other. Shen Xin had seen Prince Rui's dagger choking technique used by someone before.
Xie Ding.
The Shen family and Xie family's political differences were passed down for generations. The Shen family paid particular attention to the rules of war but the Xie family's requirement was to win by surprise and not play the cards according to common sense. The ancestors had fought for many years and when it reached Shen Xin's generation, it was almost a natural habit. As for why the two aristocratic families became enemies, one did not know.
The person who understood you the most was not a friend but an enemy. This saying was not false. Ever since Shen Xin was young, he had been secretly competing with Xie Ding. The Shen family had the Shen family's spear and the spear dance was proper and murderous. The Xie family did not have the Xie family's spear but Xie Ding's dagger choking technique was something that others could not envy. It was most suitable to assassinate the enemy's general. Think about it, when one was fighting fiercely with the enemy on horseback, a dagger would suddenly appear from the long spear and pointed at the throat. How terrifying would that be?
Relying on this move, Xie Ding was able to win every battle.
Xie Ding did not pass this move to others and only passed it to his only Di son, Xie Jing Xing. He did not even pass it to his two Shu sons. When Xie Jing Xing was confronting others when he was young, he also used this move. At that time Shen Xin coincidentally saw this scene and was surprised that Xie Jing Xing was able to use this move to the point of perfection at such a young age. He even slightly modified Xie Ding's choking technique to make it more ruthless.
And today when Prince Rui and Shen Qiu confronted each other, he used this move.
Or it could be said that it was a move that was modified by Xie Jing Xing. The angle was not the slightest bit off, but one did not know if it was intentional, but it was used slower than before, simply to let Shen Xin see it clearly.
Shen Xin was unable to conceal the shock he felt when he saw it. Other than using silence to conceal it, he did not know what to think.
Xie Jing Xing was already dead. He died on the battlefield of the Northern Borderline two years ago. But how would Prince Rui of the Great Liang know that Xie Jing Xing used a dagger to strangle his throat, especially when it was the exact same action.
Between people, even if they did the same thing, the same trick, there would be a little bit of difference. But Prince Rui's and Xie Jing Xing's figures, at that moment, in Shen Xin's eyes, actually overlapped with each other and there was no difference at all.
Thus a strange thought emerged. Could Prince Rui be Xie Jing Xing?
Xie Jing Xing was already dead!
On one hand, Shen Xin felt that his idea was inconceivable and ridiculous, but on the other hand, he couldn't help but think about it. He even felt that when Prince Rui was competing with Shen Qiu, his movements were so slow, and it was simply to let him see it clearly.
Could it be that Prince Rui wanted him to see this fact clearly?
Shen Qiu's heart was bewildered but it was not good to say it to others. He thought that it would be better to investigate first and let things be clearer before looking at it.
