Lin Xu led the armored soldiers into the Nine Halls, and all the officials followed suit. Originally, the bronze pillar could have been directly pushed away, but Lin Xu wanted influence, so he directly asked the armored soldiers to dismantle it in front of all the officials before taking it away.
The ministers watched as Lin Xu commanded the soldiers to dismantle the instruments of torture and clapped their hands in praise."Alright! Alright, now that Lord Lin has abolished this punishment of burning a loyal person, he will definitely let the world know of Lord Lin's name!”
"That's right! That's right! Lord Lin is truly a genius of the present age."
Even Shang Rong, Bi Gan, and the others stroked their beards and nodded, looking at Lin Xu with admiration.
Lin Xu listened to the praise from the ministers behind him and was very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted.
It didn't take long for the copper pillars to be dismantled. Lin Xu ordered people to transport them away, then cupped his fists and said to the ministers,"Since the king is not going to court early today, it's best for all of you to leave quickly! I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, Lin Xu left the palace with a dozen armored soldiers. The ministers looked at the depths of the palace and shook their heads helplessly. They sighed and left the palace.
Shang Rong, Bi Gan, Huang Feihu and the others also walked out of the palace. At this moment, Bi Gan said,"This Lin Xu can be considered a loyal person and also brave.”
"That's right! He was a young hero who was not bewitched by power or wealth. He was able to do what a courtier should do!”Shang Rong nodded and agreed.
"Hey, Prime Minister Shang, don't you have a daughter waiting to be married? Why don't I go and ask Lin Xu to pick a date to come to the Shang Manor to propose marriage? It'll be a good story for a scholar to marry a beauty!”Bi Gan suggested.
"Uncle Wang, you must be joking. How can my daughter be worthy of Lin Xu? Moreover, she's older than him by a level. How can this be possible?”Shang Rong waved his hand.
"Why not? I saw that at the banquet last time, Lin Xu was really interested in your family's daughter, and your family's daughter was probably even more interested in Lin Xu. Otherwise, she wouldn't have specially used the dish to see Lin Xu!”Bi Gan explained.
"This?..." Shang Rong was a little moved. He had a good impression of Lin Xu. If his daughter could marry him, Shang Rong would definitely be happy to see it happen!
"Old friend, there's no need to hesitate. In a few days, I'll go to Lin Xu's residence and tell him. Today, you can go and ask your daughter about her wishes. If your daughter really takes a fancy to Lin Xu, it will also relieve her pain of longing!”Bi Gan continued.
"Forget it. It would be good if my daughter really has such a blessing. Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Wang to go and talk to Lin Xu about marriage.”Shang Rong cupped his fists and saluted.
…
Shang Rong returned to the residence. While having lunch with his wife, he remembered the matter of Bi Gandi and asked his wife,"What has Monarch Green been doing recently?"
"That girl hasn't come out recently. She has been hiding in her boudoir, weaving clothes!”Shang Rong's wife replied.
"Why are you suddenly weaving clothes?”Shang Rong asked in confusion.
"I don't know! Sigh! This girl was already so old, but she still hadn't found a husband she was satisfied with. It was really difficult!”Madam Shang replied before sighing.
"Today, Uncle Wang Bigan discussed with me about marrying Monarch Green to Lin Xu. What do you think?”Shang Rong said.
"Lin Xu? He had often heard the people in the manor mention him. He was a loyal and righteous man, a young hero, and the most beautiful man in the world. Is Lin Xu really that good?" Madam Shang asked curiously.
"Yes! This Lin Xu was indeed a young hero, a loyal person, and was famous throughout the court. At such a young age, your status is comparable to mine, the Prime Minister!”Shang Rong nodded and replied,
"Then it's definitely good for our Monarch Green to marry him. But would he take a fancy to our Monarch Green?”Madam Shang asked.
"Uncle Bigan, I don't know if it'll work or not. You can go and ask Monarch Green. She saw Lin Xu at the banquet that day!”Shang Rong replied, then suggested his wife to ask Shang Qingjun about her thoughts.
"Alright!" Madam Shang responded with a sound. She was very concerned about this matter. She quickly finished her lunch and walked towards Shang Qingjun's room.
At this moment, Shang Qingjun was still in her room, weaving clothes with a needle and thread. Her hands were actually emitting magic power fluctuations. Clearly, the clothes she was weaving were not ordinary.
There was a painting on her table. The person in the painting was wearing a purple-and-gold coiling dragon on his head, wearing a Golden Crow Sunlight Robe, with a gold-inlaid blue jade belt around his waist. He was wearing a night practice sword, looking extraordinary. Every time Shang Qingjun spun, she would look at the flowers on the table before continuing to spin.
Just as Shang Qingjun was engrossed in weaving clothes, the door was pushed open and Madam Shang walked in.
Shang Qing Jun saw her mother enter and immediately hid the canvas on the table under her woven clothes before standing up and bowing to her mother.
Madam Shang walked to the table and looked at the moon-white clothes on the table that emitted a faint fluorescent light. She asked curiously,"You little girl, you hide in the boudoir all day just to weave these clothes?”
"Haha! Yes!" Shang Qingjun laughed awkwardly.
Madam Shang picked up the clothes that were almost finished on the table and asked in confusion,"This is a man's clothes? Is it for your father?"
"Eh? Well, that's not it." Shang Qingjun replied embarrassedly.
At this moment, Madam Shang noticed the canvas under her clothes and curiously reached out to pick it up.
Seeing this, Shang Qingjun's face instantly turned red. She quickly sat down and covered her face with her hands, not daring to look at her mother.
