Chapter 128 The male protagonist of the sad novel is taking the imperial examination: Shocked, he ju
After returning home, Lin Qu suddenly announced that he would never take part in the imperial examinations again, leaving his entire family stunned.
Old Chen: "What? You don't want to take the exam anymore?"
Zhang: "Why?"
Others were also waiting for Lin Qu to explain.
Li Xiaoyao was also confused: "Brother Qu, what happened?"
Lin Qu pursed his lips and slowly replied, "During this college entrance examination, we happened to run into Princess Anyang who was out of the palace visiting her relatives."
"She...she fell in love with me at first sight..."
Li family: “!!!”
Isn’t this a great thing?
Old Man Li frowned and asked, "Qu'er, don't you like the princess? Or do you already have someone you like?"
With their family background, it is indeed difficult for them to match someone as noble as the princess.
Lin Qu glanced at Li Xiaoyao seemingly casually, and said in a firm tone: "Grandpa, I already have someone I love in my heart."
"The princess returned to the palace this time to beg the emperor to grant her a marriage, so I want to get married before he grants her the order."
The matter of the granted marriage was discovered by Wen Renren. He wanted to let the emperor know that the marriage had already taken place before the marriage was granted.
After all, on the surface, he was well-behaved, did not do anything impolite, and never made any promises to the princess. Everything was just the princess's wishful thinking.
He just saved her life, but she chose him. He felt that he was extremely unlucky.
There is one most important reason. He is the princess's cousin. Is it appropriate for cousins to get married?
When the Li family heard Lin Qu say that he had someone he liked, joy flashed in their eyes, but when they heard what Lin Qu said next, they were stunned.
Lin Qu took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision, and knelt directly in front of the two old men. He said with a slightly trembling voice: "Qu'er is unfilial. He likes men."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room fell into dead silence. The whole family opened their eyes wide, their faces full of astonishment and disbelief.
"What?!" Old Mrs. Chen was the first to come to her senses, her voice full of shock.
"Like... like men?" Li also stuttered and repeated this sentence, with an expression on her face as if she was struck by lightning.
"Ah?!" Li Dalin on the side couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"What should I do?!" Zhang said to herself anxiously.
Li Dashan seemed to have known it for a long time, so he didn't react much. He pursed his lips and looked at Lin Qu with complicated eyes.
Compared to others, Old Man Li's reaction was relatively calm, he just frowned slightly.
However, at this moment, Mrs. Chen suddenly trembled, her eyes turned black, and she fainted.
"Old woman!" Old Man Li shouted in panic.
"Mom!" Li Dalin and Li Dashan screamed at the same time.
"Grandma!" Li Xiaoyao also hurried to help Old Chen.
The family hurriedly helped Old Chen to the bed, gave her sugar water and pinched her Ren Zhong point, which was a very troublesome process.
After a long time, Old Mrs. Chen slowly woke up. Her face was as pale as paper, and she looked as if all her vitality had been drained away.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I started crying and wailing: "What sin have I committed!"
How could her good grandson like a man?
"Mom, don't get sick from anger." Li patted Old Chen's back gently, trying to comfort her, but Old Chen was still immersed in grief and unable to extricate herself.
Li Dalin sat aside, his brows furrowed and his face looked unhappy.
He still said in a deep voice: "We still need to consider the matter of Qu'er in the long run."
Zhang looked at Lin Qu with disapproval. If her youngest son dared to like a man, she would definitely break his legs.
At this time, the old man Li, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke.
His voice was low and firm, with an unquestionable majesty.
"In that case, Lin'er can only marry a man."
The whole family looked at Old Man Li in surprise. They didn't expect him to make such a suggestion.
Old Man Li continued, "Do you think we're going to let Qu harm other girls?"
Qu'er's attitude is so firm. With his personality, he would definitely disobey the emperor even if he was granted a marriage. Instead of letting him go to jail, it would be better to let him marry a man as he wishes.
The royal family will not want a consort who likes men
His words made everyone fall into deep thought.
The old man continued, "In the early years, I also met a few pairs of sworn brothers, and they all lived well."
In the past, when people were poor and couldn't afford to marry, many men would live together as a couple, and when they had a child, they would just adopt one.
"And if the emperor knew that Qu'er liked men, he probably wouldn't grant the princess a marriage with him."
Lin Qu looked at Old Man Li in shock. He didn't expect that Old Man Li would support him so much.
He said gratefully: "Grandpa, thank you for your help."
Mr. Li sighed and patted Lin Qu on the shoulder.
"Qu'er, there's nothing wrong with liking a man, but just because you like him doesn't mean he has to be with you. You have to ask his wishes first."
After all, if you can afford to marry a wife, who would want to be with a man?
Lin Qu nodded and replied, "Grandson knows."
Old Man Li: "That's good."
Seeing that the Li family didn't understand but could accept it reluctantly, Lin Qu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that what he was about to do next might cause the Li family to kick him out of the house, but he didn't want to give up.
