Writing is not like playing the musical instrument. It cannot be mastered overnight. It requires hard practice every day. Although it does not have soul yet, it already has style, which shows that a lot of effort has been put in.
As for the painting, Qing Tang lowered his head and looked at the ground with a red face. He wished he could lift a brick and bury himself in it so that he would never be seen again in his life.
Lin Su looked at the apple on the paper that looked like two buttocks, and finally believed that some people really had no talent in painting.
Lin Su remained silent for a long time. Qing Tang raised her head slightly, and met his meaningful smile, feeling extremely ashamed: "Qing Tang knows I was wrong..."
Lin Su laughed and said, "What's wrong?"
"My fault is that I polluted the young master's eyes." Qing Tang was at a loss. "I will practice this skill diligently when I return."
"Don't worry. You're already a genius for being able to learn to this level in such a short time." Lin Su said gently.
"Yes." Qing Tang replied.
Lin Su thought for a moment and said, "If you want to learn to paint well, I have quite a few scrolls here that you can copy. Just be sure not to stain them."
"Thank you, young master. You are so kind!" Qing Tang's words were different from the roundabout and tortuous words used by scholars. Instead, they were very straightforward.
It is a pleasant thing to be praised directly by others, and Lin Su is no exception.
It was not difficult to be a compiler in the Hanlin Academy. Lin Su did it with ease. He served in front of the emperor. When Emperor Zhaoyang asked for his opinion on some issues, he would tell him everything he knew.
Other civil officials did have some complaints about this matter, but the suggestions made by Lin Su were often to the point and very effective. Emperor Zhaoyang was satisfied and chose to turn a blind eye to those memorials that criticized Lin Su.
Time passed quickly, and there was no major disturbance in the court. However, there were rumors in the inner palace that Emperor Zhaoyang had recently fallen in love with a man, who was a palace guard.
When this incident happened, the whole court was shocked. Unfortunately, the imperial censor wanted to bang his head against the pillar to persuade the emperor to stop the incident. However, the emperor, who held great power, simply said lightly: "Let him go and let him hit the wall. If he hits the wall, I don't know how his old mother and the wives and concubines at home will cope."
"Your Majesty is right. Filial piety is the most important virtue. Lord Li's behavior is truly unfilial." A hostile person spoke directly.
"Your Majesty!!!" The Imperial Censor was in a dilemma. He couldn't hit it, nor could he not hit it.
Although there has been a tradition of not killing censors throughout history, there is no saying that the emperor must stop the censors from dying.
The court was in chaos, with many opinions mixed up. Emperor Zhaoyang looked at Lin Su, who was bowing his head in the back, and dragged him into the chaos: "Lord Lin, you are in charge of restoring the national history. Do you have anything to say?"
"I have something to say. There's a poem that goes like this: 'Long Yang's infatuated love for the King of Wei; Dong Sheng's bitter love for Emperor Ai; Emperor Wen's son Gao's legendary success; 'The Broken Sleeve' is a thing of the past; there's no need to criticize it now." Lin Su said calmly, "Your Majesty is above all others, the ruler and father of the world. We are his sons, and criticizing his father's faults is unfilial."
With the emperor setting this precedent, those in the world who have sexual preferences no longer need to hide it. As for whether some people develop this hobby and encourage the trend of having sex with men, that is the fault of the law. The practice of buying and selling children at will should be eradicated from the root. It is not the fault of sexual orientation.
As soon as these words were spoken, the court became quiet for a moment. Emperor Zhaoyang was full of praise, but Lin Su knew that he had offended almost everyone. However, the emperor's purpose was to stir up trouble in the court so that he could catch those who were taking advantage of the situation.
The emperor's goal was achieved, and Lin Su's goal was also achieved.
06 sighed: [Host, it's a pleasure working with you two.]
"You mean to say they're in cahoots with each other?" Lin Su said with a smile.
He originally wanted to be a loyal minister, but since this path was blocked, he could only become what the world called a treacherous minister. As for how to protect himself after becoming a treacherous minister, it depended on his own ability.
Home should be the most relaxed place for Lin Su in this era. Qing Tang doesn't beat around the bush. He always says what he thinks and Lin Su rarely has to guess what he means.
"There have been fewer people coming to propose marriage recently." Qing Tang patted his shoulder, "Doesn't the young master like any of those women?"
"Well, because I have a hidden illness." Lin Su's evil humor came out.
Qing Tang stopped his fist and asked anxiously, "Hidden illness? What kind of hidden illness is it? Why didn't you see the young master call a doctor?"
Lin Su said indifferently: "It's not a big deal, it's just a hidden disease that prevents me from having sex with women."
"Isn't this a big deal?!" Qing Tang's eyes were filled with heartache. "Is it really confirmed? Is there a cure? If the doctors outside can't help, the palace doctors are all experts, so they should be able to find a way."
"I've tried everything, but it's useless." Lin Su sighed, "But as long as there's no harm done to anyone, don't worry."
"But doesn't this mean that the young master will never be able to marry and will have no children in his life?" Qing Tang's face was full of worry.
Lin Su was about to say that he was prepared for a lifetime of loneliness, but Qing Tang pounded his right hand and said, "I've heard that if a man has a hidden illness and medicine is ineffective, he can use food to nourish himself. Does anyone have tiger penis for sale? Bull penis should also be fine. I should have asked the brothel owner where to buy it."
If he continued to do this, Lin Su would become a Teddy Bear spirit. "No need. I've tried this method before, but it didn't work. That's all. Maybe I'm destined to be childless and lonely for the rest of my life."
"Qing Tang has no way of solving the problem of having no children, but as long as the young master needs me, Qing Tang will always be by your side." Qing Tang pursed his lips, blaming himself for the joy in his heart. If the young master could not get married, he should be very worried, but he was actually a little happy.
Even if we cannot be close to each other in this life, it is good as long as we are with him and watch him.
"Aren't you going to get married?" Lin Su asked.
Qing Tang shook his head: "I don't want to get married."
He didn't want to get close to anyone other than the young master. Even though he knew that getting married and having children would be beneficial to his life, he couldn't control his heart. After leaving that place, he still fell in love with the man.
"If I had no hidden illness and had many wives and concubines, wouldn't you marry?" Lin Su asked.
Qing Tang clenched his fingers and nodded firmly, saying, "Young Master is my benefactor. I should repay you with my whole life. If you have children, it would be great if I could take care of one or two."
"Okay, remember what you said now." Lin Su patted his head and said with a smile.
"Yeah!" Qing Tang only smiled when he agreed, without any regret.
For the rest of his life, he was also grateful for his determination at that moment, which made the delusion that he thought he would never be able to achieve in his lifetime come true.
There was endless fighting in the court over the emperor's affairs. When all the court officials' attention was still on the emperor's private affairs, the matter of buying official positions was suddenly exposed to the public, and the Minister of Personnel was the first to be affected.
Although the imperial court had a system of donating money to become an official, the official positions obtained had no real power. However, the officials who were exposed all held important positions. Because there was no fixed number of officials, as long as they paid enough money, they could become officials directly without having to pass the imperial examination. Among them, the majority were businessmen.
