After Lin Zhong sat down, he no longer had the domineering look just now, his face was cold, he quietly looked at the late plum forest in the distance, as if he was admiring the flowers, as if Duan Jin didn't even look at it from the corner of his eye.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Duan Jin glanced sideways at Duan Chen.

Duan Chen kept his eyes on Duan Jin, saw Duan Jin raised his head, brushed the white and fluffy rabbit fur beside Duan Jin's face with his slender fingertips, and asked in a low voice: "The plum cake in Wanfu Temple is very good, sweet and not greasy, every year You can only have it on the vernal equinox. You rarely have the opportunity to eat outside, you can try this plum cake, do you want to try it?"

The man's brows are sparse, and he has a flirtatious appearance, but the eyes he looks at the young man are extremely focused and gentle.

The young man had a pretty face, and he didn't show any discomfort at the man's excessive intimacy.

Lin Zhong's expression remained unchanged, and he tapped twice calmly with his index finger on the side of the chair.

After waiting for a while, seeing that the two of them had no intention of actively talking to each other, Duan Jin said, "Brother, this is the lecturer Lin Zhong I told you about in the car earlier, he is erudite and well-versed in the present, and he speaks well in lectures. Very well."

Then he said to Lin Zhong: "Lecturer Lin, this is my elder brother Duan Chen. Today he brought me to Wanfu Temple for a spring outing."

It turned out to be brothers.

Lin Zhong's face relaxed, and the cold air around his body dissipated, and he didn't realize that his mood suddenly improved a lot.She cupped her hands: "So it's Duan Shizhong, I've admired you for a long time. I offended you just now, so don't blame me."

With Lin Zhong's temperament, this is a rare warmth.

Duan Chen smiled politely, and only said: "I have heard for a long time that Assistant Professor Lin is famous all over the capital. My brother is naughty, thank you Assistant Professor Lin for taking care of him in Guozixue."

There is no intention to talk to Lin Zhong more.

The three of them sat in the pavilion, they knew each other but no one spoke, the air was filled with embarrassment.

Duan Jin thought of a topic: "I heard that Wanfo Temple is very accurate in asking for lottery. Today, Master Zongde will solve the lottery for everyone. Can Lecturer Lin go to try it?"

Lin Zhong glanced at Duan Jin indifferently, "Never..."

He didn't explain the reason, as if he didn't want to say a word with Duan Jin.

Duan Jin had no choice but to bite the bullet and think about another topic: "Why isn't Lecturer Lin with his friends?"

Lin Zhong felt that his just-right mood became irritable again.

What does it mean to say that.

Do you think he is an eyesore here and want to drive him away?

Lin Zhong gave Duan Jin a cold look, but did not answer.

Duan Jin didn't know where he made Lin Zhong angry again, and felt that this task was extremely difficult, so he tapped 5654 aggrieved: [I really can't think of a topic, please help me think of one. 】

5654 obviously doesn't like Lin Zhong's slice: "I checked the deviation value of the character design, and if you don't talk to the protagonist Shou next time, the character design will not collapse."

"That's great." Duan Jin breathed a sigh of relief, leaned closer to his brother, and stopped talking to Lin Zhong.

He was a little sleepy, and he didn't know why Lin Zhong was so cold and arrogant now. He remembered that the ten-year-old Xiao Lin Zhong was very talkative.

At that time, Duan Jin's health was better, and she didn't need to rest in bed all day, and could go for a walk outside.

Little Duan Jin has long eyelashes, big and round eyes, black hair and snow skin, he can already see how attractive he can be when he grows up.

Because he has been sick all the time, there is a faint sickness in his eyebrows and eyes, and he feels a sense of fragility. People are afraid of falling when holding it in their hands, and afraid of melting in their mouths. They dare not touch it.

Those princes and princesses have never seen such good-looking peers, they all surrounded Duan Jin, only Lin Zhong stood alone and did not pass by.

After finishing the discussion, Father Lin saw Lin Zhong's expression and asked him: "Are you going to play with Princess Jiashan? May I ask the servant to pick you up after an hour?"

Lin Zhong pursed his lips, Duan Jin was surrounded by people, he could only see a little skirt, and said in a muffled voice, "No, it's time to go back to study."

That being said, his eyes were still looking at Duan Jin, and he didn't move his feet.

Duan Jin got tired after walking for a while, so she sat on the swing and asked others to leave him alone and just play by herself.

The breeze was blowing and the sun was just right. Duan Jin leaned on the swing vine and closed her eyes.

Suddenly there was a burst of force behind him, and the swing slowly began to shake.When Duan Jin turned his head, a young man in a blue shirt with a delicate face stood behind him, helping him push the swing.

The blue-shirted boy looked at Duan Jin, blushed, and said calmly, "Is it too slow? Do you want to push it up?"

Later, Duan Jin and Lin Zhong became more and more familiar, and Duan Jin found that although Lin Zhong had a cold face and no expression every day, he was actually very talkative.

So he caught Lin Zhong in trouble and always acted like a baby and asked Lin Zhong to carry him.

At that time, Duan Jin relied on his young age and shamelessness, and acted coquettishly more softly than now. Every time, Lin Zhongtian's ears turned red, and he would carry Duan Jin without saying a word, wherever he wanted to go.

Once when Lin's father went to court, he happened to see his son walking along the palace wall with Duan Jin on his back.

At that time, Father Lin thought that his eyes were dazzled. This man who was sweating profusely and smiling foolishly was really his son who had been acting like a grown-up since he was three years old?

There was a faint sound of thunderclouds in the sky, and within a moment, spring rain began to fall outside the pavilion, and the air became humid.

Duan Chen touched Duan Jin's face, and asked in a low voice, "Will it be cold?" Untied the rope of the cloak, and took Duan Jin into his arms.

"It's a bit cold." Duan Jin obediently sat on Duan Chen's lap.

When it rains in spring, the temperature seems to return to winter.Before the rain came down, he already felt a little cold, but now he was sitting in his brother's warm arms, and he stopped shivering.

Duan Chen hugged him inside, making sure that he didn't get a cold wind, squeezed Duan Jin's waist, and asked him in a low voice: "What do you smell?"

Duan Jin kept sniffing around his neck, and the slight airflow made a small piece of his skin numb.

Duan Jin sniffed it again, raised her head, and whispered in Duan Chen's ear: "Did you change the ink, why does it smell like ebony, can you give me a piece?" This is the only time he would speak like this when he asked Duan Chen for help.

The soft voice hit Duan Chen's eardrums, making the coaxer feel numb all over, wishing to promise him anything.

Duan Chen narrowed his eyes, and it took a while for the energy in his body to pass away.

He looked down at Duan Jin, and didn't know whether to punish him for hiring people regardless of the occasion, or praise him for knowing how to whisper to himself so that no one else could hear him.

Duan Jin looked at Duan Chen innocently, saw that he didn't speak, but just looked at himself, thinking that his brother was reluctant to part with Mo.

But the ink smells really good, and the ink that smells so good must also be easy to write, so she put her arms around Duan Chen's waist like she was acting like a baby when she was a child: "Xiao Jin will practice calligraphy well, brother give me a piece."

Duan Chen hugged him even tighter, rubbed Duan Jin's waist a few times, exhaled slightly, and said in a loving and helpless voice, "Go back and have someone send it to your study."

"You brothers have such a good relationship." Lin Zhong who had been silent by the side suddenly said.

Duan Chen slightly bent the corners of his lips, "Xiao Jin is not in good health, and it rained suddenly, I'm afraid he might get caught in the cold, Assistant Teacher Lin forgive me."

He said he was sorry, but he hugged Duan Jin into his arms again, and covered Duan Jin's face with the hood so that Lin Zhong could not see it.

Lin Zhong didn't look at Duan Jin as if he didn't see Duan Chen's movements, and said, "I've brought an umbrella, so Duan Jin can go to the temple room first to avoid the rain."

Duan Chen glanced at the umbrella, which was only big enough to cover one person, and refused with a light smile: "Thank you, Assistant Professor Lin, for your kindness, but I don't worry about my younger brother going there alone."

"Although you are brothers, other people don't know your identities. If someone catches you hugging in the Buddha's Pure Land, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation." Lin Zhong frowned slightly, obviously disapproving of them hugging together all the time.

Duan Chen smiled, rubbing the back of Duan Jin's neck with his hand inside the cloak, and explained: "In the past, I used to hold my brother like this every time I enjoyed the rain in the Rain Watching Pavilion. Seeing this, the Holy Majesty praised us brothers and sisters personally. Gong, so you don’t have to worry about being talked about by others.”

The Guanyu Pavilion is a scene in the imperial palace. It is usually unremarkable, but whenever it rains, sitting in the pavilion and looking out, the entire imperial garden becomes like an ink painting. See.But what Duan Chen said, it seems that he often went to see the scenery with Duan Jin.

Duan Jin's face flashed before Lin Zhong's eyes, the same black and white peach blossom eyes, the same delicate and small face.

Duan Jin...

Thinking seems to be suddenly restrained by something.

Lin Zhong's expression suddenly tightened, and he asked solemnly: "Can my brother live in the palace when he is young?"

Duan Jin was wrapped in warmth, and she was drowsy at first, but when she heard Lin Zhong's question, she sat up straight in Duan Chen's arms in fright.He pinched his brother's waist hard and shook his head slightly at him.

But don't tell about his black history of being raised as a girl when he was a child!

Duan Chen was stiffened by his pinch, and he almost couldn't hold on to the faint smile at the corner of his lips, so he slapped Duan Jin's ass hard to make him stop making trouble.

He said to Lin Zhong: "Professor Lin is joking, how can the son of a courtier live in the palace? It is the empress who misses her family and invites me and my brother to accompany me in the palace."

Lin Zhong frowned, and wanted to ask again, but a guard hurried over, shouting, "Is Master Duan there?"

"I'm Duan Chen, why is there such a hurry?" Duan Chen beckoned.

"Master Duan..." The guard saluted, "There is an urgent report from the border. Your Majesty invites you into the palace to discuss matters. All adults above the third rank have been summoned."

Duan Chen frowned: "Do you know what's going on?"

The guard shook his head, but the eunuch did not explain to him.

He said guiltily: "When the official came, he accidentally fell down. He was fine, but the umbrella he brought was broken. The adults should use the villain's umbrella." Then, he handed the umbrella to Duan Chen.

Duan Jin looked up at the sky. Although the rain was not heavy, it was thin and dense, and the whole body would be drenched from the rain to the bottom of the mountain. Moreover, spring is the season of high incidence of epidemics...

Duan Jin looked sideways at Lin Zhong, wondering if he would lend his brother the umbrella...

From the moment the guard ran over, Lin Zhong kept looking at the guard, as if he didn't give it to Duan Jin from the corner of his eye.

At this time, Duan Jin looked at it as if asking for help, lowered his head and coughed, and said, "I lend you the umbrella."

Duan Chen took the umbrella, but did not let go of Duan Jin. After thinking for a while, he said to the guard: "I'll send my brother home first, you wait here for me."

Duan Jin hurriedly snatched his words: "Brother, it's important, you go quickly, and send a message to the family, just ask Feng Yi to pick me up."

Duan Chen is in the middle of the matter, not an official in the Ministry of War, but even he has been recruited into the palace, which shows that the situation is urgent, and he doesn't want his brother to miss a big deal because of him.

Duan Chen was still hesitating, frowning in silence.

"I will take good care of Brother Ling and send him back to the Duke's mansion safely. Don't worry about the matter." Lin Zhong said suddenly.

Duan Chen glanced at him, Lin Zhong frowned, his expression was indifferent.

Seeing their stalemate, the guard couldn't help but urged again.Duan Chen had no choice but to say to Lin Zhong: "Then please, thank you Assistant Teacher Lin."
