Chapter 274

As the highest official of the Hanlin Academy, the Hanlin University Scholars of the Great Yan Dynasty were in charge of Wenhan and prepared for the emperor's consultation. Their real power was equivalent to that of the prime minister.

"Xiaguan is very happy to give Mrs. Pei a New Year's greeting, because today is the first day I am on duty, so I am very happy."

After Lin Jingsheng heard Mr. Pei's words, he spoke nonsense in a serious manner.

"Hahaha!" Hearing what Lin Jingsheng said, Mrs. Pei burst into another hearty laugh.

"Master Lin is so humorous."

Mr. Pei looked at Lin Jingsheng with a smile, his face was full of admiration.

He has served in the Hanlin Academy for 20 years. Although Lin Jingsheng's reputation was not very good before, he never offended him.

Everyone saw Mr. Pei coming to say hello to Lin Jingsheng in person, everyone was very envious, and some were jealous.

They all paid New Year greetings to Mr. Pei, and went back to their seats to get busy.

Pei Qin laughed again, he had always admired Lin Jingsheng, and wanted to recruit him as his grandson-in-law.

But as the emperor's supreme secretary-general, Pei Qin also knew that the emperor intended to recruit Lin Jingsheng to be his son-in-law.

And that son-in-law might be his grandson-in-law, so he had to give up on marrying his granddaughter to Lin Jingsheng.

Pei Qin also thought about it. To him, grandson-in-law and grandson-in-law are the same, but to Lin Jingsheng they are very different.

Pei Qin was also very regretful, but he had no intention of giving up on Lin Jingsheng.

He felt that Lin Jingsheng had a bright future, and he shouldn't leave the Imperial Academy just because he was a son-in-law.

"Master Lin, if you stay in the Imperial Academy for a few more years, the position of the old man must belong to Master Lin."

"My lord's praise, I'm just a little servant." Lin Jingsheng said modestly.

"By the way, do you have any orders from Mr. Pei?"

Lin Jingsheng suddenly thought of something, and quickly looked at Pei Qin, waiting for Pei Qin's order.

Lin Jingsheng's actions made Pei Qin very satisfied. If such a talent is allowed to be a consort, it would be a waste of talent.

He laughed, "Master Lin, you have known my granddaughter Pei Yuxuan for so long, is she not bad?"

"My lord, Xiaguan and Miss Pei have not met." Lin Jingsheng said truthfully.

"Oh, the old man misunderstood."

Pei Qin was slightly taken aback, this Lin Jingsheng is so talented, could it be that his EQ is low.

It turned out to be a wooden fish lump, no wonder he hasn't married yet at such a big age.

The old man hinted so clearly that he would not climb up the pole.

Master Pei immediately asked: "Then do you know that Yuxuan is the granddaughter of this old man?"

"I didn't know before, but now I know." Lin Jingsheng didn't dare to neglect Mr. Pei, and replied respectfully.

In fact, he knew that Pei Yuxuan was astonishingly talented at the age of 12, crowning Yanjing.

Lin Jingsheng also dreamed about it before, when Pei Yuxuan and Ji would marry and come back to teach his younger sister.

However, at that time, he had no fame, not to mention the difference between the Lin Mansion and the Grand Scholars Mansion.

He also understood why Mr. Pei suddenly asked about this. In the past, he was all focused on finding and raising his younger sister.

At the age of 20, he has not yet finished his studies, so how can he have the energy to focus on other things.

Later, his younger sister was married and exiled, so he focused on the examination of the number one scholar.

Wanting to earn a good future for his sister to live a good life, he succeeded in just a few years.

Now at the age of 25, he is already the fourth-rank servant of the Imperial Academy and the third-rank servant.

He has become the most outstanding young talent in Yanjing, and he has become the young man that every lady in Yanjing wants to marry.

Now 16-year-old Pei Yuxuan also pretended to meet him several times, but he no longer has that thought.

Because his younger sister Lin Fuyue is already very good, she doesn't need a sister-in-law who is amazingly talented to teach her.

When Mr. Pei heard what Lin Jingsheng said, he didn't know that Pei Yuxuan was his own granddaughter.

Pei Qin was even more satisfied. Lin Jingsheng did have some skills, but he was a rookie emotionally.

Even the old man's granddaughter who is crowned Yanjing doesn't know, it means that he is not that kind of playboy.

Pei Qin's eyes were shining brightly, and she said with a smile: "Master Lin, do you have a marriage contract?"

"Your official... no engagement." Lin Jingsheng was stunned, what did Pei Qin mean by that?

"Ha ha."

Seeing the doubt in Lin Jingsheng's eyes, Pei Qin laughed even more triumphantly.

"You're still shy, kid. That's right, do you want to make an engagement with Yuxuan from my husband's family?"

engagement!
Lin Jingsheng was stunned for a moment, his mind went blank, and he didn't know what to do.

"Your officer. Although not engaged." Lin Jingsheng stammered and replied, his face was as red as an apple.

But it wasn't blushing from embarrassment, it was red from anxiety.

"You brat is still shy. Let me tell you, Yuxuan of my husband's family likes you very much. I have long wanted to betroth Yuxuan to you."

Pei Qin said with a smile that his granddaughter had indeed begged him several times.

"This"

Sweat dripped from Lin Jingsheng's forehead, he knew what Pei Qin said was true, just when he didn't know how to evade it.

A eunuch came over, bowed and saluted, "I have seen Mr. Pei, Mr. Lin"

"Little Li, what's the matter?" Mr. Pei asked in a bad tone, interrupting the old man's good business.

"Master Pei, the emperor has called you to see you."

"Huh?" Pei Qin frowned, "Why did the emperor come to summon the minister at this time?"

Pei Qin looked at Lin Jingsheng, "Master Lin, let's take our leave today and we'll talk another day."

"Okay, go slowly, my lord, and I will send you off respectfully." Lin Jingsheng bowed and saluted.

After Pei Qin left, Lin Jingsheng heaved a sigh of relief. He almost said that he didn't want to get married just now, but luckily he stopped in time.

"Ugh"

Lin Jingsheng sighed, although this Pei Yuxuan was the number one beauty in the capital, he already had someone he liked.

Lin Jingsheng's eyes fell on the table, and he picked up the file with slow movements, but in his mind was a stunning girl.

The girl happened to turn her head to look at Lin Jingsheng, her eyes were full of autumn water, and there was a smile on her lips, as warm as the spring breeze blowing on her face.

"Seven Princesses, Seven Princesses"

Lin Jingsheng muttered to himself, he felt a kind of blood-boiling impulse in his chest.

What Lin Jingsheng didn't know was that his mood was in a mess at the moment. Pei Qin had just asked him if he had a marriage contract.

His mind is full of the shadow of the Seventh Princess, and when he thinks of the pretty face of the Seventh Princess.

Lin Jingsheng felt his heart beating non-stop.

"Ugh"

Lin Jingsheng sighed, he didn't know what to do, Princess Shang would give up the chance to climb up.

He wants to earn a good future to support his sister, but he himself is not so attached to fame and fortune.

The imperial study in the palace.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair with a solemn expression, his eyes fell on Pei Qin who was kneeling on the ground.

"emperor."

Seeing the emperor's gloomy face, Pei Qin yelled a little in fear. He felt a huge oppression, and his heart was in a state of turmoil.
