Retirement Life

Chapter 65: The test is over

Views:

After Lin Mo left, Ling Yi also put away the Lingquan water. Before Lin Mo finds the energy to support the operation of the subsystem, the subsystem cannot appear.

When the subsystem appears, that is, when Zero One leaves the identity of the system, without operating energy, the subsystem cannot leave this time and space. If the energy is not enough, the credit will be lost, and they only have one chance.

However, energy is not so easy to find, and I don't know if there is any energy other than spiritual spring water in Amo's space.

When An Chenglin came in, he saw Ling Yi sitting beside him in a daze. Approaching, An Chenglin carried him into the inner room.

"Ah Rin? Why are you here?" Zero One took advantage of the situation to wrap his arms around his neck, wondering.

"Standing outside early in the morning, what did you say to Lin Mo?" An Chenglin asked.

What do you want to say to Lin Mo? Don't block him out. An Chenglin's eyes became darker, and the gloom in his heart increased.

"A Lin, you will only have me now and in the future, right?" Zero One asked.

"Well, there will only be you alone." An Chenglin hugged him and sat on the bed, promising.

"But I'm not a brother, what if I can't have a baby?" Ling Yi asked him as he sat face to face.

Ling Yi now doesn't know if he will become an ordinary man or a brother who can bear children after he becomes a human being. It seems that the emperor can't have no heirs, right

"You said before that you are not human, and I can even accept that...not to mention that you have no children." An Chenglin kissed his forehead, chuckled softly, and the paranoia in his eyes flashed past.

The heir to the throne was brought up by one of his younger brothers, An Chenglin was not worried about this.

An Chenglin doesn't care if Zero One can have children, as long as he can stay by her side.

Zero One has his own worries, and An Chenglin also has his own worries. Ling Yi is not an ordinary person, he can leave him at any time, but An Chenglin can't find him.

Ever since he fell in love with Ling Yi, An Chenglin was afraid that one day he would leave her and disappear without warning.

That's why he keeps staring at Ling Yi all the time. Fortunately, the person Ling Yi is looking for is also in this world, and he is his younger brother's husband.

An Chenglin was also glad that Lin Mo didn't force Ling Yi to recognize him as the master, so Ling Yi still belonged to him alone.

But An Chenglin still can't feel at ease, Ling Yi is not an ordinary person, he will not grow old. Zero One first appeared beside An Chenglin when he was not enthroned, and Cheng Yan had already gone to the border at that time.

He wants to fight for the throne, and also protect Ah Yuan from being hurt by those people. Zero One appeared as a transparent figure at that time, and often disappeared, and the next time he appeared, he would forget about meeting him before.

It wasn't until An Chenglin was able to use the treasury at will when he ascended the throne that Zero One's form stabilized. But every time Zero One disappears, An Chenglin always loses control of his emotions.

From An Chenglin's teens to his twenties now, Zero One has always looked young like this, unlike him who will grow up and age.

Thinking of when he died, Zero One still looked like this young. Maybe Lingyi will forget him many years later, and then fall in love with someone else, the dark side in An Chenglin's heart can't be restrained from being released.

"Then what if I become a human?" Zero One asked.

"What... what do you mean?!" An Chenglin came back to his senses, and hugged the person in his arms tightly to suppress the surging emotions in his heart. He wondered if he had heard it wrong.

"It is to give up the identity of the system and become a person."

"What you said is true? Don't lie to me..." An Chenglin hugged him harder, and his voice was hoarse.

"Of course it's true, but if you find someone else in the future, I will leave as well. Don't think I can't run away if I become a human..." Zero One poked his chest, as if threatening.

"There will be no one else!" An Chenglin pressed the person into his arms, lowered his head and kissed him in a disorderly manner.

The tense state can finally be let go, and the sorrow in Lin Mo's heart has also dissipated. Zero One has made progress, and the second brother's test has begun, and the Lin family will be able to go to the imperial city in one month.

In this life, everything is going in a good direction.

Of course, after finishing Lin Xiu's business, Lin Mo and Cheng Yan's business was about to come. However, it seems that Lin Mo has completely forgotten about it.

Outside the house, Steward Fu pushed the door and entered after receiving the prince's permission, followed by the maids who were holding red wedding dresses and other accessories behind them.

"My lord, the wedding clothes for you and the husband and the court clothes for the husband have already been made." Steward Fu said.

"Well, let's put it down."

Cheng Yan put down the book in his hand, and Lin Mo, who was sitting next to him, tidied up his collar uncomfortably, the faint blush on his face still not disappearing. Fortunately, none of the maids who came in dared to look up at random, and Steward Fu just took a glance and then looked away.

Hearing what the prince said, the maids put down their things and walked away lightly.

"Come here and try the size, if it doesn't fit you can change it." Cheng Yan beckoned Lin Mo to come over.

"It was made so quickly?" Lin Mo walked over with some admiration in his eyes.

I reached out and touched the material of the clothes. It was smooth, delicate and comfortable to the touch.

The pattern on the clothes is embroidered with gold thread, and the hem pattern is outlined with silver thread. It is not as gorgeous as women's wedding dresses, but it can also show its delicacy.

To be honest, if Steward Fu hadn't brought these over just now, Lin Mo would really have forgotten that their big wedding will be in a month.

When he was in Daling Village before, he and Cheng Yan were responsible for the preparations for the wedding, with the help of his family of course. Unlike now, all the procedures of the wedding are carried out in an orderly manner by the people of the palace and the palace.

In addition, there were too many things these days, and Lin Mo's thoughts were also divided.

Cheng Yan didn't speak, took all the clothes, and took Lin Mo's hand into the inner bedroom. After entering, Cheng Yan put the clothes on the bed. After figuring out the order of wearing the clothes and accessories, he turned around and helped Lin Mo take off the clothes on his body.

"I... I'll do it myself, you go out..." Lin Mo hurriedly blocked his hand, blushing a little.

"I'll help you." Cheng Yan approached and took off Lin Mo's clothes in a leisurely manner.

"Don't... you don't need this one." Lin Mo quickly grabbed the last piece of clothing on his body, his face turned red.

If you take it off again, you will be completely naked. Lin Mo really can't do it in front of Cheng Yan. After all, it was still daytime, and when Cheng Yan was still fully dressed, Lin Mo always felt an inexplicable sense of shame.

And Lin Mo also felt that the palm attached to his waist was a little hot, which was hard to ignore.

In the end, Cheng Yan personally put on the wedding clothes for Lin Mo one by one.

After tying the belt, Cheng Yan raised his hand to help the person in front of him straighten his long hair. Lin Mo looked up, seeing the seriousness in his eyes, he was startled.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Yan straightened his hair, lowered his head and saw that the person in front of him was not in a good state, and asked in confusion.

Don't you like this suit

"Don't like it? There's still a month left, and I'll have someone rush to make another set?"

"No, this body is fine now." Lin Mo came back to his senses and shook his head.

"There is still a month to go. Parents and the others can arrive." Cheng Yan comforted.

Cheng Yan knew that Mo Mo was sensitive. Even though this was their second marriage, since their parents and family were not around, it was inevitable that they would feel uneasy.

"Yeah." Lin Mo's lips raised slightly, and his voice was a little brisk in response.

It felt like Cheng Yan had misunderstood something, but Lin Mo was indeed comforted.

A few days later, the test was finally over.

Outside the examination room, there were a group of family members or schoolchildren of the candidates. Seeing them looking in from time to time, with anxiety and worry on their faces, Lin Mo's uneasiness was also drawn out.

When Cheng Yan wanted to ask Lin Mo to sit down and rest, the door of the examination room opened.

Candidates with pale faces came out one after another, and other people who were always paying attention to the gate rushed forward.

When they heard the sound of the door opening, the palace guards who were waiting at the side quickly stepped forward and stood on both sides of the door to block the people who wanted to rush over.

Candidates who walked out of the examination room through this door saw two rows of soldiers standing outside the door, standing straight with expressionless faces.

And after seeing the logo on their clothes, the faces of the few people were a little sluggish, but now they are a little dignified.

People from Prince Cheng's Mansion? Could something be wrong

I didn't know that because of my own reasons, many people present were uneasy. Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his second brother coming out of it.

His face was not as pale as the others, and there was nothing wrong with his expression.

"Second brother!" Lin Mo took Cheng Yan's hand and hurried forward.

When Lin Xiu heard his younger brother's voice, he turned his head to look at the source of the sound. Seeing Lin Mo and Cheng Yan approaching, there was warmth in his eyes, "Why are you two here?"

The two servants following behind the prince and wife hurried forward and took the things from Master Lin Xiu.

"Momo is worried, she has been waiting here early in the morning."

"Go back to the mansion first, and sleep after dinner." Lin Mo said.

"Let's go."

After returning to the palace, Lin Xiu slept until noon the next day. As soon as he woke up, he heard a message from the servant that lunch was ready.

After Lin Xiu washed up, he hurried to the hall.

"Second brother, it's time to eat."

As soon as Lin Xiu entered the hall, he saw Cheng Yan and Lin Mo sitting at the side waiting, and An Jinyuan was also sitting next to them.

After Lin Xiu's eyes touched the man, he was taken aback, recovered his senses, greeted him and sat down.

After lunch, Cheng Yan took his wife and younger brother to his grandfather's house, and Lin Xiu also went to the teahouse to meet Yu Yange and the others as agreed.

Before the test, they spend all their time reading books, and it doesn’t take too long to get together occasionally, and they should relax after the test.

"By the way, at the end of the exam, there were two rows of soldiers standing outside the door. What happened?" A young scholar who was lucky enough to see that scene after Lin Xiu walked out of the exam room asked a little puzzled.

"That's from Prince Cheng's mansion."

"..."

All the people at the table turned their heads and looked aside. Lin Xiu, who was belatedly aware of it, raised his head, feeling a little uncomfortable being stared at by them.

"Prince Cheng is probably worried that my brother will be bumped into..."

"Just for this reason?!" The white-clothed scholar was a little disbelieving.

"According to the previous rumors of Cheng Yan and Mrs. Cheng, this reason is not impossible." Yu Yange said after taking a sip of tea.

The rest of the people thought about it in their hearts and found that it seemed to make sense.

After figuring out what made them uneasy before, they led the topic to other places.

After an unknown amount of time, when he heard the people at the table discussing the only prince in the palace, the figure of that person appeared in Lin Xiu's mind.

"His Royal Highness Jin Yuan will choose a consort among the top three in the imperial examination? Is this true or false? It can't be another rumor, right?"

The eyes of others are also a little curious.

"It should be true. It was said a few years ago." Yu Yange nodded.

When this news was revealed a few years ago, people in the imperial city were arguing, and it took a long time to calm down. Unexpectedly, the trial had just ended, and the news was dug up again.

In fact, Yu Yange didn't know much about it. If his grandfather hadn't told him about it yesterday, Yu Yange wouldn't have known about it. After all, he wasn't in the imperial city before.

"Although it is selected among the top three, it is most likely to be the number one pick, right?"

"Brother Yu, you have a great chance."

"The test has just ended, you guys said it too early, right?" Yu Yange looked helpless.

However, thinking of his grandfather asking him to talk to him yesterday, Yu Yange's calm heart felt a little turbulent.

Lin Xiu frowned slightly when he heard their teasing, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Brother Lin, what's wrong with you? You seem absent-minded." Someone who noticed Lin Xiu asked aloud.

"Could it be that you haven't adjusted yet?" Others asked with concern.

"No, I'm just thinking, according to that attitude towards His Highness, the chosen son-in-law should be pleasing to His Highness's eyes... and may not be the champion." Lin Xiu pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled.

Choose a son-in-law

Lin Xiu raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Yange who was sitting opposite him, and said nothing.
