Jie teaches the Immortal Sweeping Heaven’s Cultivation of All Heavens
Chapter 1511 Flawless Perfection 3
Liu Tong has two different opinions about Shen Bijun.
Liu Tong didn't have much affection for Shen Bijun in the novel.
Although the novel portrays Shen Bijun as a wonderful person and how much she did for Xiao Shiyilang, it cannot change the fact that she had an extramarital affair.
Perhaps the screenwriters of the TV series also found this point interesting, so in every TV series, Shen Bijun had already crossed paths with Xiao Shiyilang before marrying Lian Chengbi, and they were in love with each other, but she had to marry Lian Chengbi for the sake of her family.
Lian Chengbi seemed to have become the third party.
Therefore, Liu Dong had a pretty good impression of Lian Chengbi in the TV series.
The world he's in now should be closer to the original story.
Liu Tong asked his young nephew, "What are your thoughts on marrying Shen Bijun?"
Lian Chengbi: "The Shen family and the Lian family have been on good terms for generations, and Shen Bijun and I are considered a good match."
Liu Tong: "Then you should also be able to see that Madam Shen wants to take advantage of the Lian family."
Lian Chengbi: "The old man wanted to find a reliable family for his granddaughter, but he also wanted to protect the Shenzhen Manor."
Liu Tong nodded: "So what do you think?"
Lian Chengbi pursed his lips and said, "Uncle, if I say I don't want Shen Bijun, will you be angry?"
Liu Tong: "Why don't you want to marry Shen Bijun? She's the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world!"
Lian Chengbi: "Uncle, I'm only eighteen years old, and I don't want to get married so early."
He wanted to make a name for himself rather than get married.
Moreover, it's rare for martial arts practitioners to get married so early; many don't get married until they're in their thirties.
Even many female warriors didn't get married until they were over twenty.
But Shen Bijun was different; she was from a prominent family and was being raised as a lady of high society.
Young ladies from respectable families usually marry early.
Moreover, Madam Shen is getting old and wants to see her granddaughter get married as soon as possible so that she will have someone to rely on in the future.
Lian Chengbi: "Miss Shen's flowering season cannot wait, so I will not delay her any longer."
Liu Tong: "Fine. I always felt that Shen Bijun and you were not a good match, and the two of you were not suitable for each other."
Liu Tong didn't want her nephew's marriage to be unhappy, and hoped that he would marry a woman who was compatible with him in the future.
As for Shen Bijun, let other men worry about her.
If she had a different husband, she could have lived a harmonious and happy life with him, and Xiao Shiyilang wouldn't have been a problem.
Lian Chengbi, being a junior, couldn't refuse Madam Shen, so he dragged Liu Qiu along to Shen Family Village.
Let Liu Tong face that old fox, Shen Taijun.
The two walked slowly, and when they arrived at Shenjiazhuang, there were already quite a few martial arts practitioners there.
Xu Qingteng and Li Gang, two of the Six Gentlemen, have already arrived.
Upon seeing Lian Chengbi, the two hurried over to exchange pleasantries.
Although the two men's attitudes were acceptable, Lian Chengbi could sense the hidden hostility between them.
The two of them regarded Lian Chengbi as their greatest rival.
After all, the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world is someone every man would want.
Although Li Gang is nicknamed "a true gentleman who remains unmoved by beauty," this "beauty" depends on the person.
As Lian Chengbi's elder, Liu Dong was personally received by Madam Shen.
Out of respect for the elderly and care for the young, Liu Tong gave Madam Shen some face.
Lady Shen wanted to discuss the marriage with Lian Chengbi's elders first, and proposed the idea of a marriage alliance between the two families.
Liu Tong: "Cheng Bi is still young and has to shoulder family responsibilities. I've discussed it with him, and we're thinking of waiting a few more years before considering his marriage."
Madam Shen was displeased; the Lian family clearly did not want to form a marriage alliance with the Shen family!
However, Madam Shen did not want to give up the idea of a marriage alliance with the Shen family. Madam Shen said, "We can have Chengbi and Bijun get engaged first, and then get married in two years." Liu Tong showed eight teeth: "Chengbi wants to wait another ten years before considering marriage. This will delay Miss Shen for ten years, which is not good for Miss Shen's reputation."
Having said all that, it's impossible for Madam Shen to marry her granddaughter into the Shen family.
Hmph, her granddaughter is the Shen family's darling, the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, and has a very noble status.
Even if the Lian family doesn't want her, plenty of people want to marry her granddaughter.
That young man from the Xu family is quite good.
The Xu family was a prominent and wealthy family, with hereditary generals of Hangzhou. Their status was even higher than that of Lian Chengbi, an ordinary commoner.
Lian Chengbi only relied on the fact that his martial arts skills were slightly better than Xu Qingteng's.
Seeing Shen Taijun's attitude, Liu Tong smiled.
The hot potato has finally been thrown away.
Next, Liu Dong took Lian Chengbi to watch the play.
For the sake of so-called "fairness," Lady Shen set up a series of tests and competitions for the group of talented young people she had invited.
She announced that the winner would become her grandson-in-law.
A number of talented young people enthusiastically signed up to participate.
Even Li Gang, a "true gentleman who remains unmoved by beauty," signed up.
Liu Tong softly explained to her young nephew, "You can know a person's face but not their heart. There are many hypocrites in the martial arts world, and Li Gang is one of them. Among you six gentlemen, Xu Qing Teng is genuine, Yang Kai Tai is a real fool, Zhu Bai Shui is the most intelligent and insightful, while Liu Se Qing and Li Gang are hypocrites. You should avoid associating with them in the future. And be wary of Li Gang, that scoundrel..."
Lian Chengbi obediently accepted the advice. His uncle was very good at judging people, and listening to him was definitely the right thing to do.
Seeing Lian Chengbi standing to the side, Li Gang walked over and asked, "Isn't Master Lian going to participate?"
Lian Chengbi smiled and said, "I am still young and not in a hurry to get married, so I will not participate."
Li Gang then remembered that although Lian Chengbi was the leader of the Six Gentlemen, he was actually the youngest among them.
If he doesn't participate in the competition for the title of the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, his chances will be much greater.
Li Gang was pleased and his attitude towards Lian Chengbi improved somewhat.
However, after Xu Qingteng walked over, Li Gang's expression became more subdued.
Even without Lian Chengbi, there are still Xu Qingteng, Liu Seqing, and others, who are his greatest rivals.
Liu Dong picked up a plate of melon seeds and handed it to her little nephew.
Lian Chengbi paused for a moment, then laughed, grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the plate, and joined his uncle in "eating melon seeds and watching the show."
The so-called tests were nothing more than martial arts contests; written tests were rare.
After all, few people in the martial arts world are well-educated, and even fewer are talented.
To avoid embarrassing the martial arts practitioners who came, Shen Family Village first tested everyone's martial arts skills.
The top ten in the competition advance to the next stage.
The next hurdle was the written exam, which was not friendly to many people. Li Gang was one of those who failed this round.
Xu Qingteng and Liu Seqing, both from prestigious families, passed this test.
As Li Gang watched the two figures disappear into the distance, the jealousy in his eyes was impossible to conceal.
Lian Chengbi saw it and inwardly praised his uncle's good eyesight.
He lowered his head and took a sip of tea, listing Li Gang as someone he needed to be wary of.
Although it wasn't a story of overcoming five obstacles and defeating six generals, but only three, and the level of excitement wasn't particularly high, Lian Chengbi still enjoyed watching it immensely.
Finally, the ultimate victor emerged.
It was none other than Xu Qing Teng, the general of Hangzhou. (End of Chapter)
