New Year's Eve,

Everywhere in the capital was filled with a festive atmosphere and was very lively.

The streets are clean and spotless.

The shops are filled with all kinds of New Year's goods, which are dazzling.

Those high-ranking families were also extremely generous and gave a lot of clothing and money to the servants, so that they could celebrate the New Year happily.

The same is true for everyone in the Lin family.

In the inner courtyard, maids wearing newly made clothes were hanging lanterns on the corridor.

Qingwen put her hands on her hips and ordered the maids to make their hands and feet more agile.

As for the side, Azi, who was wearing a purple lady's dress and looked a little thin, was not worried about the cold and was talking to Master Li.

I don't know what Ah Zi said, which made the latter's face turn red with embarrassment and he didn't dare to raise his head to show anyone.

For Ah Zi, her time in the Lin Mansion was quite comfortable.

His new patron, who was in the innate realm, was willing to teach her about her cultivation experience, and he also did not neglect her food and clothing expenses.

This made Ah Zi feel as if she had gained some weight during this period.

"Master hasn't come back today?"

What did Azi think of and asked Da Yu'er who was watching the snow with her cheeks in her hands.

This Da Yu'er, who had entered Lin Chen's inner courtyard inexplicably, had a high status and could be regarded as the mistress of the house.

But Azi knew that her master had never touched the other party.

After the New Year, Lin Chen handed Da Yu'er, who was just thirteen years old, into the care of Wang Yuyan.

Wang Yuyan had no objection and just treated her as having an extra sister.

As for Lin Chen,

At this time, he was still in the palace, attending the banquet hosted by Li Zhao himself.

Those who can be present are all important officials of the court and nobles.

Lin Chen looked around and saw many unfamiliar faces.

He knew very well that although he was quite prestigious in the court, he had little contact with these ministers.

Despite this, he still needs to have a good time and socialize without losing etiquette.

Especially Jia Zheng and Lin Ruhai, Lin Chen had a close relationship with these two families.

According to what Jia Zheng said.

After his daughter Yuanchun became a concubine, his official position also increased.

You know, Jia Zheng had served in the Ministry of Industry for several years and had always been a sixth-grade idler.

Now Jia Zheng has a new appointment, named Jiangnan Patrol Envoy.

This so-called Jiangnan Patrol Envoy was a fourth-grade official, and his responsibilities were extensive.

Water conservancy, agriculture, farming, etc. in the area under their jurisdiction.

From a certain perspective, it is quite suitable for Jia Zheng.

If this official position colludes with the local government, it can cause disaster for both parties.

But Jia Zheng was very vain, and he also studied the Confucian theory of sages governing the country.

In addition, the Jia family is already wealthy, so why would they want to join forces with local officials to embezzle a few small sums of money?

No, Jia Zheng, who is going to the south of the Yangtze River after the Spring Festival, has already made it known that he wants to strictly investigate the unjust officials in his jurisdiction.

It can be seen that Jia Zheng, who has been frustrated in the Ministry of Industry for a long time, is really planning to make a career.

In this regard, everyone in the Jia family is very supportive.

After all, if you want to object, there is no way to do so.

After all, Jia Zheng's ability to sit in this position depends entirely on his daughter.

Who prevents your daughter from becoming the emperor's concubine?

"Brother Lin Xian, since I am no longer in the capital, please take care of the affairs of the Jia family."

In ancient times, it was quite common for friends to entrust them with family matters.

But when Lin Chen heard this, his mouth twitched slightly under his ghostly face.

Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, Lin Chen pretended to be indifferent and nodded.

"Let's have a feast!"

At this time, a eunuch shouted loudly.

This is to tell the courtiers that a banquet is about to take place.

Lin Chen glanced at the eunuch in charge of the banquet, but he didn't expect that he was still an acquaintance.

Wei Xiaobao!

Unexpectedly, Wei Xiaobao did well in the palace.

Lin Chen laughed and shook his head.

For him, this party was meaningless.

So Lin Chen focused more on the reward package he got from Yu Shu.

"Open the reward package!"

Lin Chen thought silently in his heart.

[The gift bag has been opened! 】

[Get the rare item: Water Jade Dragon Ball]

[Get two hundred thousand taels of silver]

[Get a random historical general card]

[Obtain a rare item: the elixir of life]

Snap.

Lin Chen lost his grip on his hand and dropped the wine glass on the table in front of him.

This noise attracted the attention of everyone around him.

Among them was King Ning.

Prince Ning, who came to celebrate Li Zhao this time, was no longer as aggressive as before.

He turned into a die-hard supporter of Li Zhao. If the great world disobeys him, King Ning will lead the army to fight against him!

Earlier, Hou Jinxing assassinated Li Zhao. King Ning was furious when he learned about it and wrote a letter willing to send soldiers from the fiefdom to lead the army north to conquer Houjin.

certainly.

This matter was suppressed by Li Zhao.

"General Lin, what's wrong?"

Prince Ning also knew that Lin Chen was Li Zhao's confidant, so his attitude was very friendly.

"Replying to His Highness Prince Ning, I am rude." Lin Chen stood up and saluted, saying in an apologetic tone.

Soon, a eunuch came forward and removed the overturned desk in front of Lin Chen and replaced it with a new one.

Only Lin Chen's peripheral vision kept falling on the system backpack, and his eyes were lost in thought.

[Strange Object: Water Jade Dragon Ball]

[Introduction: Precious pearls collected from deep-sea jade clams. If worn by women, they can soothe the mind and nourish the skin.]

[Remarks: It can also be ground and used as medicine. After taking it, you can avoid water and delay the rest for two hours]

After Lin Chen read the introduction of the Water Jade Dragon Ball, he nodded imperceptibly.

Looking at the water jade dragon balls in the system backpack, there is a plate of about thirty balls.

Each one is the size of a longan, clear and transparent.

According to the introduction of the system, this water jade dragon ball is really very attractive to women.

What surprised Lin Chen even more was the note given at the back of the system.

Avoid water and delay your breath for two hours?

In other words, by taking the powder of Water Jade Dragon Ball, you can move freely underwater for two hours without breathing.

This is good stuff.

Even an innate master can only survive for half an hour by sealing his whole body if he sinks into the sea.

If it had been any longer, he would have drowned.

Lin Chen looked at the two hundred thousand taels of silver that came out of the gift package and smiled helplessly.

It's been a long time since he issued any goods.

As for this random historical general card.

Lin Chen's intuition told him that the famous general from this Qingshi Famous General card would most likely be named Meng Yi.

Tsk.

"use!"

[The Qingshi Famous General Card has been used! 】

[Winning the famous general in history: Meng Yi! 】

Lin Chen looked at the system prompts with a look in his eyes.

[Meng Yi, the famous general in Qing Dynasty: He has just been recruited by the Yulin Guards and is a small soldier in the Yulin Guards' new recruit camp]

Fortunately, Meng Yi didn't need him to recruit him, but was directly brought under his command.

This actually saved him some time.

then.

This is the highlight.

The gift package reward made Lin Chen lose his temper just now.

[Strange item: Elixir of Immortality! 】

Lin Chen looked at the golden and jade-like pill-like pill in the system backpack.

As for why Yushu's reward gift package can include this, the reason is simple.

After all, there is indeed something in Yushu's original plot that can make people immortal.

But Lin Chen didn't expect that he could actually drive this thing out!
