Omi had to sit up

Chapter 104 The Royal Guards and the King's Robes [4]

Chen Shu only felt that the hair on the top of his head was instantly pressed down by the grapes, and he felt a heavy touch.

What does Xie Zhen want to do?

There are as many as thirty grapes, and the purple is so bright that it is about to drip. Even if it is hung on a pole, it is still precarious.Chen Shu was taken aback for a moment, quickly calmed down, and looked at the other party in surprise.

However, Xie Zhen had already let go of his hand. Looking at Chen Shu's surprised gaze, the corners of his lips curled into a smile, showing a bit of interest: "My imperial guards are very skilled in martial arts, so this trivial matter must not be too difficult for Lin Aiqing." .”

"..." It's not difficult if you don't lose your mind.

But why did he listen to Xie Zhen?

Chen Shu was silent, only feeling that the grapes on his head would roll off at any time, so he straightened his posture and said: "If it can calm the emperor, I will carry it according to the emperor's orders."

Hearing Chen Shu's reply, Xie Zhen narrowed his eyes and gradually smiled.

With grapes on top of his head, Chen Shu didn't dare to lose his mind, and stood there with downcast eyes, waiting for Xie Zhen to speak.

However, Xie Zhen became quiet. His eyes fell on Chen Shu for a long time, and finally he crumpled the original rice paper and discarded it aside. Then he reached out for a new rice paper and pressed it on the paperweight.

Chen Shu watched his movements quietly.

"Lin Aiqing should have seen a lot of portraits of women recently, right?" The table was covered with plain white rice paper, Xie Zhen sat back on the chair, picked up the paper that was left aside, and suddenly asked, "I don't know if Aiqing herself let me Has anyone ever painted a portrait?"

"Not yet." Chen Shu paused in his heart and said.

This world is not like the world where Chen Shu lives. There are photos and videos that can record images. If portraits are used, they are drawn by a painter, and the painted portraits are only used on specific occasions.Chen Shu's current identity is Lin Chenshu. Although he has seen the portrait of the woman seeking marriage in Lin Heming's hand, he himself does not want to marry, so no one will come to give him a portrait.

When Xie Zhen heard Chen Shu's answer, the pen in his hand was drunk again: "Then go and sit over there."

"...?"

Xie Zhen's voice sounded again: "Lin Aiqing, today you can't let the things on your head fall, otherwise I will punish you otherwise."

Chen Shu: "..." Xie Zhen meant to draw a portrait of him, but he was ordered by Xie Zhen to be a bodyguard, not a model...

Chen Shu was silent, and left Xie Zhen's side with the grapes on his back, pulled a chair and sat in front of Xie Zhen's desk, and sat down upright.

Xie Zhen looked carefully at Lin Chenshu's beautiful face, saw Chen Shu's gentle eyebrows, delicate skeleton, and naturally upright body. It is imprinted in my mind, even if I close my eyes, I can write it out silently over and over again.

But his pen never fell.

Xie Zhen raised his pen and said slowly after a while: "Chen Shu, I want to see your real appearance."

"..." Chen Shu was taken aback for a moment, then looked up at Xie Zhen in astonishment.

Xie Zhen and his eyes met across the desk.But as soon as the eyes of the two met, Chen Shu felt the grapes on the top of his head sliding back with his movements, and quickly and subconsciously straightened his head again.

When he adjusted, Xie Zhen was still looking at him.

"...The emperor wait a moment."

Chen Shu was silent, and finally turned around with Xie Zhen on his back. When he turned around again, Lin Chenshu's face had disappeared, replaced by Ji Changming, who had appeared during the trip to Qingshan.

Ji Changming's face was much more handsome than Lin Chenshu's. The man's brows were natural, his eyes slightly wide, and his appearance was handsome and flamboyant, but it matched Chen Shu's temperament, and at this time it was like calm water, shining brightly.

"Sure enough." Xie Zhen looked at Ji Changming's face and his pupils were shining brightly, and then recalled the trip to Qingshan in the past. The youth was full of vitality and smiled at each other. Looking back at this time, it feels like a lifetime away.

"I didn't intend to deceive the emperor at that time..." Chen Shu was silent for a moment. He wanted to explain what happened to Ji Changming, but when he raised his eyes, he realized that Zhen had already picked up a pen to trace on the paper.

"En." Xie Zhen only responded.

This time he didn't look at himself, nor did he ask why.

The man is wearing black clothes, and the golden dragon symbolizing the emperor is flying around on the clothes, showing the man's status, and the man's aura is stern, like the proud peak of a lonely mountain, monopolizing the cold wind and cold snow on the high place.

There were no other outsiders in the imperial study room. Chen Shu's vision began to narrow as far as he could see, and everything around him gradually blurred, leaving only the man in black in front of him.

There is still one thing he didn't say to Xie Zhen. Even though he deliberately pretended to be Ji Changming in Qingshan, there is one thing that is true.

He does have a sister, a world away from him.

And now because of Changming, he will stay here forever.

He has already realized that his stay has something to do with Xie Zhen, and even though he said a lot of angry words with Chang Ming, when he looked at the portrait sent by Lin Heming, it was Xie Zhen that suddenly came to his mind. Waiting under the light, raised his eyes to look at him quietly.

It is said that what a person sees before death is his most reluctant thoughts. When he was dying in Tian Xing Zang, who was that figure he saw?

Chen Shu stared blankly, his brows furrowed again, and his eyes gradually showed a trace of confusion and confusion.

Until there was a knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, the top three in this year's martial arts exam will be released soon." A palace attendant reported outside, "Does Your Majesty want to move?"

...Martial arts? !

Chen Shumo pulled back to his senses, and then he was taken aback for a moment, then realized that he had been distracted just now, and quickly straightened the crumbling grapes.

He accompanied Xie Zhen in the imperial study, and almost forgot that today was the day of the martial arts competition.Yang Wu set off early in the morning to participate in the martial arts test. Before leaving, he ran up to him and said a few words, then reluctantly left with his knife in hand.

It has been more than half a day now, the result of the martial arts examination has come out, and it is not known whether Yang Wu won the examination or not.

Chen Shu cheered up again, but Xie Zhen, who had been silent all this time, paused for a moment and looked towards him.

The four eyes met again, Xie Zhen briefly looked at Chen Shu's face, but his eyes moved to the grapes on top of his head.

"I haven't finished painting yet." Xie Zhen's voice revealed a trace of regret, "Lin Aiqing, do you think I will go or not?"

"...This year's martial arts exam is not controlled by Qi Yanchu, Fang Shouqian and others. The talents obtained may be generals that the emperor can entrust with important tasks in the future." Chen Shu thought for a while, and lowered his eyebrows.

"I heard that Lin Aiqing's consciousness is that I want to move the martial arts." Xie Zhen looked at the grapes on the top of Chen Shu's head, and suddenly laughed.

Chen Shu's eyes were not on Xie Zhen's place, and when he heard the words, he immediately replied respectfully and uprightly: "Martial arts can be regarded as an annual event. If the emperor goes to the scene in person, it will have an inspiring effect, and it will also be able to inspire people." Take the opportunity to win over new courtiers in the future."

"Lin Aiqing's analysis is so thorough, it seems that I still have to go." Xie Zhen's voice put down the pen, and the emperor's voice sounded again, "Why don't Lin Aiqing go with me to see it? The most exciting thing, since it is once a year, you and I don't want to miss this rare opportunity to watch it."

Chen Shu was taken aback, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at Xie Zhen, only to see that Zhen Jinlong Xuanyi was leaning on the seat of the chair, looking at the thing above his head with a chuckle.

"..." careless!

Chen Shu's back stiffened, and he realized it instantly.

How can a smart person like Xie Zhen not know the pros and cons of it? He deliberately asked himself, fearing that he knew he would answer this way.He was in a daze for a while and didn't have time to think about it, so he set a trap for himself.

The grapes on his head were still heavy, Chen Shu was speechless for a moment, so he had to turn around, and changed to Lin Chenshu's face again where Xie Zhen couldn't see.

Xie Zhen called his attendants and put a black fur coat on his body. His face was set against the black fluff, forming a sharp contrast.The man turned around and looked at Lin Chenshu who had taken the black and red robe of the imperial guard and put it on.

Lin Chenshu still had the things he put on his head. The attendant next to him saw it, and his eyes showed a hint of surprise, but he didn't dare to show too much in front of the emperor, and just lowered his head and went about his own business.

"You don't have to be too cautious. You are the imperial bodyguard. You will sit on the imperial chariot with me this time." Xie Zhen said, "You are bored in this palace with me, why don't you go out with me to relax."

Chen Shu responded and took the lancet uniformly distributed by the court.

Although nothing would happen if he followed the emperor here, but Lu Qi, the secret guard beside Xie Zhen, had left a month ago. He was a newly promoted imperial guard, and he really wanted to follow Xie Zhen.

Soon, the imperial chariot arrived, and two figures, Chen Shu and Xie Zhen, one red and one black, entered the chariot one after the other, and went to the martial arts school outside the palace.

There are light gauze decorations around the chariot. After the emperor came out of the palace, he walked on the road. Ordinary people detoured to salute one after another. Only two figures could be vaguely seen inside the chariot.

The martial arts school was set up on the garrison school in the west of the capital. Chen Shu followed the emperor's chariot and saw a huge arena built on the school ground, surrounded by flags flying, writing and explaining characters, waving in the wind.Four big drums were set up on each of the four corners of the arena. At this moment, the drummer was beating the drums. Times, are playing inextricably.Among them, the gray figure is very familiar, wearing the clothes Yang Wu wore before leaving in the morning.

Yang Wu actually entered the top three?

Chen Shu focused his eyes on the ring, and saw Yang Wu holding the treasured sword he was wearing with him, resisting the attack of the brown figure.This brown figure is also a young man in his 20s, and it is a long sword with a sharp blade. Every time the falling sword collides with Yang Wu's knife, sparks will fly everywhere, and the sword will fly everywhere. Yi, the scene of swords and shadows again and again, makes people dazzled.

When the emperor's chariot was marching, the two of them each exchanged more than ten moves, the saber in Yang Wu's hand was not as sharp as the other's, and several gaps were chopped off unexpectedly.

"I heard that this Yang Wu belongs to you?" Xie Zhen could also see the changes on the field. Seeing the grapes on Chen Shu's head, no matter how bumpy the chariot was, he was still upright, but his eyes were fixed on the people in the distance , finally raised his voice and asked.

"He was originally Qingshan county lieutenant. Later, he followed me to the capital and worked as a court lieutenant. Just in time for this martial arts exam, he came to see if he could get his honor again." Chen Shu hummed, then frowned again. There was a change in the field, and he said in a low voice: "The person who is facing Yang Wu is not bad in strength, and with the advantage of weapons, Yang Wu may lose this round."

"The sword in this man's hand is the Qinglang Sword, which is considered a well-known weapon in the Jianghu. In addition, he also learned from Cang Yujian, so it is reasonable for Yang Wu to lose." Xie Zhen said.

"..." Xie Zhen actually knew so much.

Chen Shu glanced secretly at Xie Zhen.

At this time, the emperor's chariot was entering the school grounds, and the brown-clothed man suddenly saw the emperor's chariot, his eyes widened, he used a set of slashing sword moves, and greeted Yang Wu as much as possible.

Yang Wu quickly resisted, but he couldn't resist the sharpness of the Qinglang sword, and the precious sword he was wearing was broken in response.

"I lost." Seeing that the knife that had been with him for half a year broke like this, Yang Wu's eyes were full of regret, but he couldn't continue to match the man in brown, so he had to lose.

As he spoke, the sound of the drum shook again, quickly covering up his words.The man in brown clothes was full of energy, standing upright, with a look of vigor on his face, and saluted everyone on and off the stage.

He bowed to a group of people, and when he saw the imperial chariot, he was about to salute, but he saw two figures standing inside the imperial chariot, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

"The grassroots bandits pay respects to the emperor." After hesitating for a while, he quickly saluted in the direction of Xie Zhen and Chen Shu.

The chariot had already parked, Xie Zhen nodded slightly, and saw the chief examiner come over and hand over the name of the martial arts Jinshi.

"Kou Shifen, it turns out that you are the adopted son of Yan Xu, General of Saibei, and the son of a general. No wonder your martial arts are so strong." Xie Zhen saw it and smiled and put the title back into the hands of the chief examiner.

Kou Shifen looked up at the voice on the emperor's chariot, and immediately showed a smile: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. The grass people participated in the martial arts this time, and they also want to serve the country like their father."

"Oh? You performed well today. You won the title of No. [-] in martial arts. You are a new hero in my dynasty. I don't know where the No. [-] in martial arts means?" Xie Zhen asked.

This is the content of the imperial examination, and Kou Shifen quickly raised a smile and said: "The Caomin learned from the No. 18 Qinglang Sword Cang Yujian in Jianghu Records, and all his martial arts are just to serve the emperor. If the emperor does not dislike it, Caomin can go for it." The emperor acts as a bodyguard, trying to keep the emperor safe."

As soon as he said this, he was extremely confident.Chen Shu was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Xie Zhen.

"Kou Zhuangyuan has a heart." Xie Zhen smiled with the corners of his lips curled up.

Hearing Xie Zhen's words, Kou Shifen said again: "Your Majesty, the grassroots have a merciless request."

"What's the matter, Kou Zhuangyuan said it is." Xie Zhen said.

Kou Shifen heard the words and laughed: "I heard that the imperial bodyguard next to the emperor is Lin Chenshu, the former court lieutenant. The grassroots have heard that Master Lin has a long reputation, but they don't know the depth of Master Lin's martial arts. They want to compete with Master Lin, but they don't know the emperor. Can you agree?"
