The Blind Maiden
10. The Dinner II

Su Qionglin who heard this lowered his head and laughed lightly, making Su Bei become worried.

He had listened to many insults and insults from people, but what made him unworthy ?

He really felt sad, hurt, and of course angry, but to whom should he vent his anger ? Because in reality he is that bad.

"What do you mean by not hanging out with people ? Qionglin is certainly not just anyone, she is my daughter. " Said Su Bei.

Madam Su did not reply and only snorted coldly in return while Su Qionglin herself still lowered her head hoping that the sky was not favoritism towards her.

If he is blind then he should also be made deaf, then he will not know what other people are saying to him.

He will not hear reproach after reproach thrown by others against his physique, if he can choose then he will choose the worst and fastest way to end things.

Su Qionglin listened to the whispers of the surrounding people and said that he was an illegitimate child, he got cursed because of his mother's crimes.

This was a thing that even Su Bei could not silence, as the rumors had spread widely even though it was not a true yahh thing.

The Emperor also heard this and felt uncomfortable with some words that could be quite rude, but what could I do ?

He also felt the same way, his brother, Su Bei should have married a decent woman instead of a woman whose origins were unclear.

Merely, the Emperor felt a hint of pity for Su Qionglin who was actually not wrong whatsoever, he was only a victim of both his parents and the cruelty of the world.

He also could not choose whether to be born as someone who had complete senses or not.

Merely, the Emperor slightly understood why Su Bei could be interested in that woman if he saw from Su Qionglin's perfect face.

"How annoying is it that this time it's not a dance show. "Murmured Ling Yi bluntly criticizing the Emperor as the Host.

No one dared to let out another sound when listening to the deadly sentence from Ling Yi.

"Who said it didn't exist ? Show me the show and bring all the beautiful women I've personally chosen. " Said Emperor Ling.

And a dozen beautiful women entered with swords in their hands, accompanied by the sound of the sound of traditional musical instruments echoing throughout the hall.

True to her majestic appearance, all of these women danced with swords in their hands, looking extremely skilled before finally one moved very quickly and out of line.

Everyone was late before finally the sword headed towards Su Yun who was sitting right in front of Su Qionglin.

Su Qionglin felt that there was a wind blowing and reflexively pulled Su Yun aside and the sword was avoided.

Merely, not many people saw that Su Qionglin was the one who saved Su Yun.

"Catch him !" People caught the woman who threw the sword and everyone started to surround the hysterical female dancers.

"Look, no tiger father has a puppy, young master Su is really talented even being able to dodge such a fast attack. " Say an old noble.

Even the Emperor clapped for this, praising Su Yun's courage and dexterity. While Su Yun himself was in a dilemma, he wanted to admit that the one who helped him was Su Qionglin but on the other hand did not dare to get a sharp glare from his mother.

"Let's just say that it's really you. " Whispered Su Qionglin.

"Thank you for the praise from the Master Lords, this Su is young and needs guidance from these great Lords in the future. " Su Yun said as he stood up and bowed to everyone while Ling Yi himself was downing his wine cup while propping up his chin.

"It's interesting, the affection between brother and sister is disgusting. " Murm Ling Yi.

Everyone praised Su Yun, but there were some people who knew that it was not thanks to Su Yun's dexterity.

One of them was this Ling Yi, because of his experience on the battlefield then it was not difficult to reveal that it was not Su Yun.

It was a pity that Su Bei sat at the very front and did not see this so considered that his son was the one who did all that and praised Su Yun proudly.

While Su Qionglin himself was sitting there without anyone noticing, it was useless for Su Yun to tell the truth to everything because people would not believe.

The blind man saved someone from a sword attack, who would believe that ?

Perhaps even his own father would not believe it, there was only himself, Su Yun, and Madam Su who knew about it.

Su Qionglin did not know that there was one other person who knew of it as well, it was General Ling.

Everyone in the crowd congratulated Su Bei for finding such a great successor.

"You really do boast, you have a lot of talent buried in you. " Su Bei said happily.

Su Qionglin also smiled when he heard that his father was very happy, as long as his father was happy then he would also be happy without feeling the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.

While Su Yun himself felt that there was a very heavy burden on his shoulders, this was not a feat he made himself and this did not make him feel happy.

Merely, Su Yun really did not know how to explain everything while Su Qionglin had asked him to claim this false feat.

Everything had turned into chaos in the banquet tonight, the mixed feelings of people especially Su Qionglin.

Su Yun felt sorry for Su Qionglin only that he was completely powerless to do anything.

He let everyone insult and berate Su Qionglin, wanting it to feel like he was yelling to everyone that Su Qionglin was not an illegitimate child.

Su Qionglin was just like the son of Su Bei's other daughter, it was just that Su Qionglin had prepared himself ever since he wanted to come here.

Coming here means testing your mental strength, because he dares to come here then shows that he is ready with all the pressure and insults that will be obtained by him, he said, because honestly these nobles are saying things in a more hurtful way.
