Omi had to sit up

He didn't immediately reply to Lin Heming's words, and Jing Chu and the others next to him looked at each other again.

Before their Master Lin had an accident, Lin Chenshu had always had his own opinions in doing things. Whether it was the case of investigating Fang Shougan or the confrontation with the people on Jianghulu, they were vigorous and decisive, but when Lin Chenshu came back, he gave people the impression that A lot has changed.

At first, they thought that Lord Lin would directly reject Lin Heming because of his relationship with the emperor.

But... Lin Chenshu has indeed reached the age of marriage.Li Chao was usually able to marry a wife and have children when he was eighteen. Lin Chenshu was already over twenty. If there were no lively discussions and gossips in the market, he should have married a wife at this time.

Shao Yuping looked at each other, but didn't know what to say.On the contrary, Lin Heming saw that Lin Chenshu was rarely obedient, so he immediately cleared his voice and said, "The one you are holding in your hand is the niece of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry. She is not bad looking. If you marry her, you will be honored."

"..." Chen Shu glanced at the scroll, then closed it and put it aside, picking up a new one.

"This is the daughter of the Marshal of the Northern Saibei Army. She has the demeanor of a general. If you combine with her, you will have support in the military and political affairs in the future." Lin Heming said again.

After he finished speaking, he saw Chen Shu pick up the scroll and put it down again.

After being dazed for a while, Chen Shu didn't continue to be distracted. He just flipped through the scroll tirelessly, sometimes staring at the portraits and sometimes frowning. After a quarter of an hour, he turned over all the portraits of women on the table, including Shao Yuping and Three paintings that Ni Jin threw away.

"I've finished watching." He didn't speak until he turned to the last painting.

"Anyone you like?" Lin Heming asked.

Chen Shu slowly rolled up the last painting and tied it up again with a rope: "Not yet."

Lin Heming didn't expect Chen Shu to utter such a sentence after reading it for a long time, and he vomited again: "What did you say? Then what kind of person do you want?"

"..." Chen Shu's hand that tied the rope paused slightly, his eyes moved slightly, but he didn't answer.

He looked lukewarm, and Lin Heming was so angry: "Lin Chenshu, are you trying to anger me on purpose? You don't want so many girls from good families, what else do you want?"

"..." Chen Shu frowned, and just lowered his eyes and put the painting in his hand back into the picture pile.

"It's the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. The marriage is decided by the parents. I come to you this time to save face for you." Lin Heming was furious in his heart, and scolded, "Which family's son disobeys the elders like you, you uneducated rebellious son!"

Lin Heming's voice buzzed again, and when he mentioned the three words "no mother taught", Chen Shu's eyes sharpened, and finally he said: "Lin Heming, I've given you enough face, I'll give it to you next time Come here, don't blame me for throwing them all on the street!"

"You, you...!" Lin Chenshu's temper changed, and it's not impossible to do such a thing.Lin Heming blushed. He knew that coming here was to touch Lin Chenshu's bad luck, so he decided not to come over and look at Nizi. His chest heaved sharply, and he laughed back angrily, "I knew you are a bad person by nature. Yi, I'm afraid you are still thinking about the man you hang out with outside with this evil look!"

He was so angry that he brought up the incident of Lin Chenshu's broken sleeves that everyone knew in the market a year ago.A love letter written by Lin Chenshu with a man was published by Liang Du to the public. Although he didn't know who the man was, but the love letter was full of affection, and the rhetoric was as lingering as a woman. Lin Chenshu has been criticized even now .

The people present did not expect that the quarrel between the father and son would bring up something that everyone had been taboo to mention in front of Lin Chenshu, and they were all taken aback.Seeing that the momentum was wrong, Shao Yuping was about to step forward to fight, but saw that Lin Chenshu's complexion changed several times, revealing a trace of cruelty.

"Then you can treat me as Duanxiu!" Chen Shu said.

"..."

No matter how disturbed the rumors were, Lin Chenshu himself never talked about his private affairs in front of others, nor did he admit that these rumors were true.No one expected Master Lin to say such words directly today.

Shao Yuping's step forward was immediately awkward on the spot, Lin Heming was also taken aback, his face flushed red.

After Chen Shu finished speaking, he was also slightly taken aback.He frowned, loosened his brows gradually, and frowned again suddenly, then turned around abruptly.

"It's not that I haven't been treated as a broken sleeve before." Chen Shu whispered, and he had already walked to his room and closed the door without looking back.

The weather in the capital was getting colder, but it still couldn't stop the fiery news from the circle of officials and gentry.

Fang Shouqian's mansion had been completely raided a few days ago, and the once powerful prime minister finally ended up in ruins, which made everyone sigh, but everyone's focus soon fell on Lin Chenshu who brought down Fang Shouqian.

Lin Chenshu was promoted to the third-rank imperial guard. With his steady progress, his official career was prosperous, and he was valued by the new emperor. In a few years, he would be the second-rank official.The normally inconspicuous Lin family has completely become the most eye-catching family in the eyes of everyone this time. Even Cen Yufeng now has many concubines from big families fawning over her when she goes out.

However, Lin Chenshu had no wives and concubines, and was favored by many clans and wanted to marry him. However, after the matchmaker came to deliver the portrait of his daughter's family, he was quickly returned. He has a pleasant face, and when the matchmaker asked the reason, it was just that the eldest son of Dao's family was addicted to his career and had no intention of starting a family for the time being.

A man in his 20s, who has reached the third rank, who would believe that he has no intention of getting married?

At first everyone thought it was a shrewd businessman like Lin Heming who was picking a wife for his son, but when all the painting scrolls of the daughter of General Yan Xu of the Saibei Army were returned, everyone was surprised and began to whisper.

Does this Lin Chenshu really not want to get married?It is normal for a man to have wives and concubines in the Li Dynasty. Could it be that Lin Chen neglected him...

Everyone thought of the previous rumors again, and the discussion suddenly became subtle.

In addition, when someone asked Cen Yufeng, Cen Yufeng's face became embarrassed, and he did not elaborate; some officials above the third rank, such as the academician of the Imperial Academy, talked about Lin Chenshu, and they also kept their faces secretive and advised their family members not to think about this man for the time being. It makes people more certain about the speculation.

Lin Chenshu was afraid that he didn't like women, that's why he rejected those marriages.

The rumor that had been silent for a while spread again, but a year ago Lin Chenshu was the object of everyone's ridicule, but now the "shame" is gone, and the joke is still read by many people.

According to rumors, when the daughter of Yan Xu's family heard the news, she announced that she would make the disgusting Lin Chenshu look good.

The rumors came and went, and finally drifted into the palace slowly.

In the imperial study room in the palace, there is a charcoal fire to dispel the cold, and the temperature in the room is like spring.

A pen slowly landed on the inkstone, half-smoked the full ink, and then lightly landed on the rice paper, smearing a large area of ​​ink.

"Chen Shu, I heard that you are busy with your marriage recently?" The people in the room were dressed thinly. Xie Zhen was wearing a golden dragon robe, holding a pen, and said slowly while sitting at the table.

On the table, there were still various snacks and fruits, but the original display was basically maintained, and no one ate them.

The emperor's voice fell, but no one in the room answered.

Xie Zhen raised his head and saw Chen Shu standing in front of his desk, with his sleeves rolled up in one hand and an ink stick in the other, rubbing the ink mechanically.

Chen Shu was wearing a red dress, which was the inner shirt uniformly distributed by the imperial guards.The man's figure is thin, even if he is dressed up, the clothes appear to be empty, but the belt is tight, making the man's waist appear slimmer than the woman's.

"Chen Shu, Chen Shu?" Seeing that Chen Shu was distracted, Xie Zhen was taken aback, and called again.

"Huh? Your Majesty." Chen Shu's eyes that had been fixed on one place finally came back to his senses quickly, and he replied, "What is the Emperor's order?"

"..."

Xie Zhen endured what he was going to say: "You have worn too much ink."

Chen Shu: "..."

Chen Shu looked down, and sure enough, he saw that the ink stick in his hand had been shortened a lot, and the ink inside the inkstone was pooled a lot.

He was on duty in the palace today, and was called to Xie Zhen's imperial study halfway.At first, Chen Shu thought that Xie Zhen was looking for him for something, but he didn't expect that the other party just asked him to grind with him...

Ever since he came back from Tianxingzang, Chen Shu knew that he could not return to the real world, so he couldn't think about the meaning of many things carefully, and it was difficult to concentrate, especially the time-consuming things.

He was slightly taken aback, and had no choice but to put down the ink stick: "The emperor calms down, it's because the minister accidentally lost his mind."

Xie Zhen stared at Mo for a while, then finally put down his pen and said, "Chen Shu, do you have something on your mind recently? Are you thinking about marriage? Which girl do you want to marry? If it hinders your status, you can tell me, and I may be able to match you. "

"..." Chen Shu was taken aback, looking at Xie Zhen, but saw that the man in front of him had the same face, his brows were still handsome, and his expression was still stern.

But since he came back from Tianxingzang, Xie Zhen seems to be a little different from before.

"You saved me, just tell me what you want." Xie Zhen said, "I can issue an edict to get you engaged."

Chen Shu: "..." Is he serious?

"I don't have anything on my mind, and I don't want anything." Chen Shu replied.

"Since you have nothing on your mind, you shouldn't be distracted all the time." Xie Zhen lowered his head in response, and the voice came again, "I can't appease my anger today, Chen Shu, what do you think should be done?"

It was just a momentary remark to appease the anger, but Xie Zhen actually took it to heart?

"...I don't know." Chen Shu said, "How does the emperor want to appease his anger?"

Xie Zhen's face was still the same, and he raised his eyes to look at Chen Shu's figure in red: "You come here first."

Chen Shu paused, thinking that Xie Zhen had just talked about matching, so he went to Xie Zhen's side.

The cold and snowy feeling on Xie Zhen's body was still there, and with the scent of the incense burner in the room, he also got up from his seat when he saw Chen Shu approaching.

The two were about the same height, except that Lin Chenshu was slightly shorter. When Xie Zhen stood up, Chen Shu could still feel the coolness of the other's clothes.

He subconsciously couldn't help taking a step back, but Jian Zhen grabbed his shoulder.

"Don't move." The man said in a low voice.

Chen Shu froze, but saw the man in front of him suddenly lowered his head and searched on the desk for a while, then smiled softly, and took out a bunch of grapes from the fruit plate.

The grapes are trembling and round in the air.

"Lin Aiqing is always distracted, and I am very troubled." Xie Zhen picked up a bunch of plump and round grapes and slowly lifted them up, while suddenly smiling, "Lin Aiqing, I will put these grapes with you."

As he spoke, he placed the grapes neatly on top of Chen Shu's head: "If you want to appease me, just brace yourself and don't let them drop, not even one."
