Chapter 259
Qiulin looked at the expression on Shen Qing's face, how it changed from sunny to cloudy like the weather, it was really strange.Qiu Lin muttered a few words, Da Cica came up to Shen Qing, and asked, "Brother Shen Qing, what are you thinking, let's go."

As Qiu Lin jumped in front of him like a rabbit, Shen Qing finally regained his composure, but his face became paler and paler.He shook his head slightly, "It's nothing, let's go." Shen Qingyi took Qiu Lin's Liangliang's hand when he was young, and walked out of the yard in a blink of an eye.

Qiu Lin tried to free his hand from Shen Qing's, but it was unsuccessful, so he had to give up.Let him pull it up the field ridge towards the forest.

It was a very cold day at this time, and the crops in the field had been harvested, leaving only piles of dead branches and weeds.Only the field with wheat is still green, glowing with strange vitality in this bleak winter day.

Shen Qing looked ahead, and Kong Wu with his right hand pulled Qiulin vigorously; Qiulin lowered his head and only looked at the road on the ground. The field is narrow, and if you don't pay attention to the road, you will accidentally fall into the field to go.No words to each other.

When they reached the edge of the forest, the two of them didn't go any further, but sat on the ground, watching the thick fog dissipate, revealing the edges and corners of Luoshui Village bit by bit in the mist.For a while, Qiulin looked at the Luoshui Village, which was fascinated by the mist, and for a while, he looked at the young man sitting beside him.Seeing that he pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, Qiulin didn't know what to say.Shen Qing didn't say a word, and she couldn't figure out the situation, so it was self-defeating to talk nonsense and comfort at this time.It's better to just quietly accompany Shen Qing's brother like this, maybe he will want to say it by himself after a while, so he doesn't need to chase after him to ask.

Qiulin just sat there as if nothing had happened, not talking or making trouble, and after a while, he heard Shen Qingliang's thin voice coming through the mist, "Tomorrow, I will leave Luoshui Village and go to Beijing to take the exam .”

Shen Qing's voice was cool, and he couldn't hear joy or sorrow, but there was a kind of calmness after a thousand sails had passed away.

Qiulin paused for a moment before remembering this.The new emperor ascended the throne for the first time, and this method of purging the court was quite thunderous. Now that the court has undergone a major shake-up, new and talented people are needed to fill the vacancy.She knew early on that Shen Qing's elder brother was not someone in the pool, and Shen Qing would definitely not miss the opportunity to hold the special imperial examination this time.

Qiu Lin looked sideways at him, and seeing him staring into the distance, she suddenly had an intuition that this time Shen Qing would definitely be a Jinshi in high school and be ranked in the imperial court.She looked at Shen Qing with shining eyes and a sweet smile. "This is a good thing. This sudden change in the situation in the court will definitely require a lot of talents. Qiu Lin feels that brother Shen Qing is not a treasure, and this time he will definitely be able to soar into the sky, a high school scholar!"

Shen Qing suddenly withdrew his eyes quietly, staring fixedly at Qiu Lin who still had a smile on his face, suddenly felt a tingling pain in his heart. "Qiu Lin, do you really want me to be in high school, enter an official career, and embark on the road to Qingyun?"

Uh, seeing Shen Qing's strange expression, Qiu Lin was very surprised.This examination of Jinshi, the road of the scholar's imperial examination is over, when the time comes, he will wait for the imperial court to assign an official position, and then take office.This is the same as the modern civil servant examination, this is the iron rice bowl that everyone is fighting for!

Isn't it the lifelong hope of their scholars to pass the Jinshi exam?Why did he come to Shen Qing and ask her instead?Qiulin felt extremely surprised. She slowly suppressed her doubts and nodded solemnly. "Of course I hope. It's great to be an official. You don't have to worry about food and clothing. You can punish traitors and keep the people safe, and you can realize your ambitions. Isn't it great?"

Qiu Lin turned around and saw Shen Qing staring at her with a dazed face, the look in her eyes was very strange, which made Qiu Lin feel a hairy feeling in his heart. "What's the matter, brother Shen Qing, don't you like being an official and benefiting the common people?"

Shen Qing shook his head, "Of course, being an official means you have to be honest and upright, and benefit one side. Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that you don't want to be in the position? It's just that to be an official, you have to stay away from your hometown, trek across mountains and rivers, and travel far away."

Qiu Lin nodded knowingly. If there is no support from nobles to become an official, he also starts from the grassroots, such as the county magistrate.According to what the second elder brother said, an official in this dynasty cannot take office in his native place, in this way, there is some truth to Shen Qing's words.If you want to be an official, you have to stay away from your hometown and settle down in another place, which really makes the hearts of those scholars who have relocated to their hometown feel a little heavy.

Now, Qiulin can finally understand what Shen Qing feels in his heart.If it were her, if she had to go far away to be an official, she would rather not be an official.Of course she can't persuade Shen Qing like that at the moment, Shen Qing's father and grandma are pointing at him to pass the Jinshi examination.Qiulin chuckled, "Brother Shen Qing, isn't there a saying that a man's ambition is everywhere, so at this young age, he naturally doesn't want to settle down in one corner. It's also good to go out and experience adventures."

Shen Qing listened carefully to Qiu Lin's words, nodded solemnly, and murmured: "A man's ambition is everywhere, a man's ambition is everywhere..."

Qiu Lin wasn't good at persuading people, Shen Qing's expression was vague, and he didn't know how to persuade him, but he just quietly stayed by Shen Qing's side, and didn't continue to make trouble like usual.

She lowered her head and saw a lot of hair needles stuck to the cloak that was covered outside, and her heart felt frizzy.Why didn't you be careful when you came here just now, it is very difficult to remove this thing, and this thing has a pointed head, which looks like a needle prick on the skin, so it got this name.

Qiulin looked at the needles in annoyance, and had no choice but to remove them first, otherwise they would stick to other clothes when they were taken home, causing everyone to be pricked by the needles up.

She was carefully removing these annoying hair needles, but unexpectedly, Shen Qing, who lowered his head and muttered, suddenly raised his head, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but lean over and hugged the little Qiu Lin in his arms, anxiously He said eagerly: "Qiu Lin, I understand what you mean. A man's ambition is everywhere. He shouldn't live in one corner and settle down on one side. The rise and fall of a country is everyone's responsibility. Now is the time when the court employs people, and I should try my best to serve the court. It's just Qiu Lin, if Qing stays in the Imperial Capital this time in high school, I only hope that you can go with me and accompany me to the Imperial Capital, Qiu Lin, would you like to?"

Boom, Qiulin's brain became hot, and his whole body became hot.What exactly did Shen Qing mean by these words, to go to the capital to accompany him? !Qiulin was so astonished that he forgot to refuse for a while.It was like a fire was burning in her mind and heart, which made her a little confused.

Shen Qing didn't care about Qiu Lin's reaction, and was eager to express her wishes.Because he knew that once he left this time, the chances of coming back might be very few.How much he wanted Qiulin to accompany him to the capital and settle down there. "Qiu Lin, I know that this is really abrupt, but it is also a helpless move. Qiu Lin, are you willing to go to the capital with me, I will wait for you... When you grow up, I will protect you, when you are as precious as Bao, hold it in the palm of your hand. Qing swears here that he will treat you well for the rest of his life."

That's right, I don't know when, this woman's voice and smile always appeared in front of my eyes, her every frown, smile, expression and behavior were all engraved in the depths of his memory stroke by stroke. It will be out of control.He likes her innocence and sloppyness, her unrestrained, unconcerned attitude towards people, her sweet and innocent smile and her clear voice like a silver bell.

She is the white pearl in his heart, the bright moonlight in front of his bed, and the person he misses day and night.

It's really strange, he has seen quite a few beauties, either charming or flexible or gentle or dignified, but in his eyes, none of these people can catch up to her in any way, not worth her smile.It's clear that she started out as a little girl who hasn't grown up yet...

Shen Qing didn't know what was wrong with him, but when he couldn't see her, he would miss her. He had never cared about her like this, and made him miss her so much.He knew that if he didn't have the courage to say this today, he might never have this chance in his life.It is also possible that after he said these words, Qiulin would have a suspicion for him in the future.It's just that at this critical juncture, if he keeps these words in his heart, he may regret it later.

He would rather let Qiulin not be as close and dependent on him as before, but also know Qiulin's attitude so that he will not regret it in the future!
Shen Qing's words really stunned Qiu Lin completely. Shen Qing's words were regarded as a confession, but she was obviously only nine years old this year, and she was only ten years old after the turn of the year!Qiu Lin was so shocked that he faltered even when he spoke. "I... I'm only... nine years old..."

Qiulin originally thought that she was still young, and love affairs were too far away from her.Although adding the age she lived in her previous life, she is already a third person.But this body is really only nine years old, so it's too far to talk about it now, isn't it?I am still a baby at all!At this moment, she also remembered that Shen Qing was only 16 years old, and he was still a child who had just begun to love and was ignorant!

Shen Qing pulled Qiu Lin excitedly with both hands, and spoke fiercely. "It's okay, it's okay, Qiulin, as I said, I will wait for you to grow up! Even if it is five or ten years, as long as you stay by my side, I feel like I have taken a reassurance. As long as you are willing to stay by my side , Qiulin, I will treat you well." Shen Qing also knew how ridiculous he was, but he just fell in love with this girl who was seven years younger than him. As soon as you move, just look at her, and your heart will be filled with joy!

Qiulin was still in a state of petrification right now, she was almost fainted by Shen Qing.When she grows up, he wants to raise her?Really thunderous!Qiulin only felt that he had been struck by a bolt of lightning, and suddenly felt that the outside was burnt and the inside was tender.
