Chapter 65 The Examination Ends



After Lin Mo left, Lingyi also collected the spiritual spring water. Before Lin Mo found the energy to support the operation of the subsystem, the subsystem could not appear.

When the subsystem appears, it is when Zero One leaves the system identity. Without operating energy, the subsystem cannot leave this time and space. If the energy is not enough, it will fail. 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 the spiritual spring water in Amo’s space.

When An Chenglin came in, he saw Lingyi sitting aside in a daze. As he approached, An Chenglin picked him up and walked into the inner room.

"Alin? Why are you here?" Lingyi put his arms around his neck and asked in confusion.

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

What was he going to say to Lin Mo? He had to be blocked outside. An Chenglin's eyes became a little darker, and the gloom in his heart increased.

"Alin, you will only have me now and in the future, right?" Lingyi asked.

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

"But I'm not a brother, what should I do if I can't have children?" Lingyi sat face to face with him, looked at him intently and asked.

Now Lingyi doesn’t know whether he will become an ordinary man or a boy who can have children after he becomes a human. It seems that the emperor cannot be without heirs, right?

"You said before that you are not a human being, but I can accept that... let alone not having children." An Chenglin kissed his forehead and laughed softly, with a flash of paranoia in his eyes.

As for the heir to the throne, An Chenglin would adopt one of his younger brothers and train him. He was not worried about these things.

An Chenglin doesn't care whether Lingyi can have children or not, as long as he can stay by his side.

Lingyi has his own concerns, and An Chenglin also has his own concerns. Lingyi 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 Lingyi, An Chenglin was afraid that he would leave him one day and disappear without any warning.

That's why he always keeps an eye on Lingyi. Fortunately, the person Lingyi is looking for is also in this world, and he is his younger brother's husband.

An Chenglin was also glad that Lin Mo did not force Lingyi to recognize him as his master. In this way, Lingyi was still his alone.

But An Chenglin still couldn't rest assured, Lingyi was not an ordinary person, he would not grow old. Lingyi first appeared beside An Chenglin when he had not yet ascended the throne, and Cheng Yan had already gone to the border.

He had to fight for the throne and protect Ayuan from being hurt by those people. At that time, Lingyi appeared as a transparent figure, and he often disappeared. The next time he appeared, he would forget the previous encounter with him.

It was not until An Chenglin ascended the throne and was able to use the vault at will that Zero One's form stabilized. But every time Zero One disappeared, An Chenglin would lose control of his emotions.

From An Chenglin's teenage years to his current twenties, Lingyi has always looked young, unlike him who will grow up and grow old.

When he thought that when he died, Lingyi would still look young, and that Lingyi would forget him many years later and fall in love with someone else, the dark side of An Chenglin's heart could not be suppressed and released.

"Then how about I become a human?" Lingyi asked.

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

“It means giving up the identity of the system and becoming a person.”

"Are you serious? Don't lie to me..." An Chenglin hugged him a little harder, and his voice was a little hoarse.

"Of course it's true, but if you find someone else in the future, I will leave anyway. Don't think that I can't run away just because I've become a human..." Lingyi poked his chest, threateningly.

"There won't be anyone else!" An Chenglin pressed the person into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her without any rules.

The tense state can finally be relaxed, and the worries in Lin Mo's heart are also relieved. Lingyi has made progress, and the second brother's examination has also begun. The Lin family will be able to reach the imperial city in another month.

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

Of course, after finishing Lin Xiu's business, it was time to deal with Lin Mo and Cheng Yan. However, it seemed that Lin Mo had completely forgotten about it.

Outside the house, after getting the prince's approval, Butler Fu pushed the door open and entered. The maids behind him, holding red wedding dresses and other accessories, also went in.

"Your Highness, your and your husband's wedding dresses as well as your husband's court dresses have been made." Butler Fu said.

"Well, put it down and go out."

Cheng Yan put down the book in his hand, and Lin Mo, who was sitting next to him, straightened his collar uncomfortably, with a faint blush on his face. Fortunately, the maids who came in did not dare to look up and look around casually, and Butler Fu only took a glance and then looked away.

After hearing the prince's words, the maids put down their things and left quietly.

"Come and try the size. If it doesn't fit, we can change it." Cheng Yan waved Lin Mo over.

“It was done 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 very comfortable to the touch.

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

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

When they were in Daling Village, the wedding preparations were all done by him and Cheng Yan, with the help of their families. Unlike now, all the procedures of the wedding were carried out in an orderly manner by people from the palace and the imperial palace.

In addition, there have been too many things going on recently, and Lin Mo's mind has been divided.

Cheng Yan didn't say anything, picked up all the clothes, and then took Lin Mo's hand and walked into the inner bedroom. After entering, Cheng Yan placed the clothes on the bed, figured out the order of wearing clothes and accessories, and turned around to help Lin Mo take off his clothes.

"I... I can do it myself, you get out..." Lin Mo quickly pushed his hand away, blushing.

"I'll help you." Cheng Yan walked closer and slowly took off Lin Mo's clothes.

"No... I don't need this one." Lin Mo quickly grabbed the last piece of clothing on his body, his face slightly red.

If he took off his clothes any more, he would be completely naked. Lin Mo couldn't do it in front of Cheng Yan. After all, it was still daytime, and Cheng Yan was still dressed neatly. Lin Mo always felt an inexplicable sense of shame.

Lin Mo also felt that the hand on his waist was a little hot, which was hard to ignore.

In the end, Cheng Yan personally put on the wedding dresses for Lin Mo piece by piece.

After tying the belt, Cheng Yan raised his hand to help the man in front of him straighten his long hair. Lin Mo raised his eyes and was startled when he saw the seriousness in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Yan fixed his hair, looked down and saw that the person in front of him was not in good condition, and asked in confusion.

Don’t you like this wedding dress?

"Don't like it? You still have a month to spare. I'll have someone make another set?"

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

"There's still a month left, and Mom and Dad will be able to get here," Cheng Yan comforted.

Cheng Yan knew that Momo was sensitive. Although this was their second marriage, it was inevitable that she felt uneasy without her parents and family around.

"Yeah." Lin Mo raised the corners of his lips slightly, and responded in a brisk voice.

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

A few days later, the examination finally ended.

Outside the examination room stood a group of candidates' family members or servants. Seeing them looking in from time to time, with some anxiety and worry on their faces, Lin Mo's uneasiness was also aroused.

When Cheng Yan was about to ask Lin Mo to sit down and rest nearby, the door to the examination room opened.

Pale-faced candidates walked out one after another, and others 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 on the side quickly stepped forward and stood on both sides of the door to block the people who wanted to rush in.

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

After seeing the symbols on their clothes, the already dejected expressions on their faces became even more solemn.

Someone from Prince Cheng's Mansion? Did something happen?

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

His face was not as pale as the others, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with his expression.

“Second brother!” Lin Mo took Cheng Yan’s hand and hurried forward.

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

The two servants following behind the prince and his wife hurried forward and took the things from Young Master Lin Xiu's hands.

"Momo was worried and was waiting here early in the morning."

"Go back home first, have dinner and then take a nap." Lin Mo said.

"Let's go."

After returning to the palace, Lin Xiu slept until noon the next day. When he woke up, he heard the servant tell him that lunch was ready.

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

"Brother, it's time to eat."

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

When Lin Xiu's eyes met that person, he was startled. Then he came to his senses, greeted him and sat down.

After lunch, Cheng Yan took his wife and brother to his grandparents' house. As agreed, Lin Xiu went to the teahouse to meet with Yu Yange and the others.

Before the imperial examination, they spent all their time reading. They would only get together occasionally for a short while. After the examination, they should relax and unwind.

"By the way, when the examination was over, there were two rows of soldiers standing outside the door. What happened?" A young scholar who walked out of the examination room after Lin Xiu and was fortunate enough to see that scene asked with some confusion.

"That's someone from Prince Cheng's Mansion."

“…”

Everyone at the table turned their heads to look to the side. Lin Xiu realized what was happening later and raised his head. He felt a little uncomfortable with their stares.

"Prince Cheng must be worried that my brother might be spotted by someone..."

"Is that the reason?!" The scholar in white was a little unconvinced.

"Based on the previous rumors about Cheng Yan and Cheng Wangfu, this reason is not impossible." Yu Yange said after taking a sip of tea.

The others thought about it and found that it seemed to make sense.

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

I don’t know how much time had passed, but when I heard people at the next table discussing the only prince in the palace, that person’s figure appeared in Lin Xiu’s mind.

"His Highness Jinyuan will choose a consort from the top three in the imperial examination? Is this true or false? Is this another rumor?"

There was also some curiosity in the eyes of others.

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

When this news was leaked a few years ago, people in the imperial city were talking about it, and it took a long time to calm down. Unexpectedly, this news was dug up again just after the exam.

In fact, Yu Yange only had a vague understanding of this. If his grandfather hadn't told him about this yesterday, Yu Yange would still not be clear about it. After all, he was not in the imperial city before.

"Even though he was chosen from the top three, the most likely candidate should be the top pick, right?"

"Brother Yu, you have a great chance."

"The exam just ended, isn't it too early for you to talk about this?" Yu Yange looked somewhat helpless.

However, thinking about how his grandfather asked him to talk yesterday, Yu Yange's calm heart began to waver.

When Lin Xiu heard their teasing, he frowned slightly and felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

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

"Could it be that he hasn't adjusted yet?" others asked with concern.

"No, I was just thinking that based on that person's attitude towards Your Highness, the prince consort he chooses should be someone Your Highness likes...and he doesn't necessarily have to be the top scorer." Lin Xiu smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled.

Choosing a prince consort?

Lin Xiu raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Yange who was sitting opposite him, and said no more.
