Chapter 418 - The Biggest Obstacle
Chapter 418: The Biggest Obstacle
When Xie Qiao heard Zhao Xuzhi’s words, she smiled faintly, “There aren’t many people in this world who can live a life without pain or disaster. However, since Eldest Young Master wants to know, I would say that the Youngest Young Master has passed through a great calamity and his life will be much smoother in the future.”
When Zhao Xuzhi heard that, he nodded.
He understood that there were some people who did not have to do anything, and the best would be given to them, such as the Emperor to the Crown Prince, or the father to his second brother.
For some people, if they fought, it would prove that they were greedy and they might not even have a good ending!
He was the latter.
However, how was he worse than Zhao Yuzhi?
He started reading at the age of three and was called a child prodigy at the age of seven. Everyone said that in this world, his ability to learn was only slightly behind the Crown Prince.
At that time, he would compare himself with the Crown Prince. He also thought that the only person in this world that he could compete with was the Crown Prince.
However, before the Crown Prince could compete with him, there was a Young Heir in the family!
Zhao Yuzhi was born a prince. From then on, when others looked at him, they would never say that he was the only son of Prince Ning Bei. Instead, they would call him the eldest son of the concubine!
The word ‘concubine’ was like a huge mountain crashing down on him, denying all of his talents and abilities.
Zhao Xuzhi sneered at that moment.
“Thank you for clarifying my doubts today, Master,” as Zhao Xuzhi spoke, he stood up. His gaze was still the same as before. It was not sharp, and it could even be said to be gentle, “No matter what, I still have to thank you for saving my Second Brother’s life.”
After he finished speaking, he took his leave.
As soon as he left Xie Qiao’s Fortune Pavilion of, Zhao Xuzhi said to his confidant, “Secretly guard the Fortune Pavilion and see who she interacts with.”
Mo Chusheng… Her name was very familiar. He had been wondering if he had heard it somewhere in the past two days.
When she mentioned the Crown Prince, he suddenly remembered.
Back then, Xiao Yurong and the Crown Prince had gone through the ceremony to acknowledge a master. He happened to be in the capital. At that time, he was upset and wanted to acknowledge Li Shiyan as his master just like the Crown Prince did. However, he was rejected.
At that time, Li Shiyan said that he had a disciple, Mo Chusheng, who was very picky. The disciple he chose had to be liked by the eldest disciple.
When he heard that, he thought it was ironic.
Mo Chusheng had never met Xiao Yurong and the Crown Prince. How would he know that she would like them?
However, the old master was really weird. He just pretended to smile and said, “She can tell people’s fortune. Looks are born from the heart. I see that the Crown Prince and Xiao Yurong are good-looking. I think they have a good heart.”
However, his appearance was not bad either. Moreover, since he was young, there were people who said that he looked a little like the Crown Prince!
When he was young, the Crown Prince’s arms were perfect, and his personality was gentle and amiable. He also learned from the Crown Prince in everything he did and received all sorts of compliments.
Therefore, he could not understand why the Crown Prince could become his disciple, but he could not?
Li Shiyan saw that he was persistent, but he picked on him from within. He said that if the Crown Prince was rejected, he would accept him wholeheartedly. Even if he was unwilling, he would only read and learn more. It was not like he would pester him like that. He even said…
He was far from Mo Chusheng and was not suitable to be senior sister and junior brother.
Mo Chusheng was a person that he had never met before, yet she had already become the biggest obstacle to him.
In those few days, the princess gave birth to a baby boy. He failed to become a disciple and became a laughingstock.
Zhao Xuzhi smiled sarcastically.
Li Shiyan loved this disciple, so he naturally would not do anything to Mo Chusheng.
However, Li Shiyan was very important.
Out of his six disciples, other than Mo Chusheng, the rest were either in high positions or were well-known throughout the world. Now that he had made Mo Chusheng hold a grudge against him, he could only think of other ways to make Mo Chusheng be on his side.
