False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

Yulin Guards Station.

Lin Chen couldn't help but smile when he looked at Xue Biao, who was dressed in brocade and fur, and looked much richer than when he first saw him.

It seems that Xue Biao, the general manager of Ziwei Chamber of Commerce, has been living a comfortable life recently.

"The common people have met General Lin."

In the military tent of the camp, Xue Biao bowed respectfully and saluted.

Seeing this, Lin Chen shook his head slightly and said, "The relationship between you and me doesn't need to be so polite."

After that, he asked his bodyguard to bring a pot of boiled tea and poured it on Xue Tadou.

Xue Tao's eyes lit up as he looked at the tea with its ethereal leaves and fragrant fragrance.

He is a person who understands tea. He saw that this tea was quite extraordinary and exclaimed: "Good tea!"

Lin Chen laughed and said that the origin of this tea was that it was a gift from the King of Qi.

"Speaking of it, a certain family was lucky enough to drink the tea given by the prince just now thanks to the blessing of the general."

A smile appeared on Xue Biao's face, expressing his feelings.

Before he met Lin Chen, he was just a member of the Xue family in Jinling, making a few livings by doing business.

You must also be wary of the prying eyes of some people with malicious intentions in your home.

But what about now?

He was awarded the title of Ziwei Sheren by His Majesty the Emperor, and he was also an official figure after all.

You know, in ancient times, there was a chain of contempt for scholars, farmers, industry and merchants.

This merchant class ranks at the bottom.

No matter how rich you are, nothing can compare to the death of your family with just one word from a government official.

According to Li and Tang laws, heirs of merchants could not even participate in the imperial examination.

Thinking of this, Xue Biao, who has achieved a class jump, naturally feels sad.

Lin Chen didn't know what Xue Biao was thinking, but he was just curious about why the other party did not handle the business of the Chamber of Commerce in the capital, but came to Shandong instead.

"To be honest, sir, this time a certain family came here on behalf of others." Xue Biao said rather helplessly.

If possible, he wouldn't want to wade into this muddy water.

However, the condition given by Aunt Xue was to add the names of Xue Baoqin's parents to the family tree of the Xue family.

In the concept of the ancients, what is important is that fallen leaves return to their roots and the genealogy is famous.

Xue Biao's parents are also from the side branch and have not been included in the Xue family tree.

Therefore, Xue Biao just came to Lin Chen to ask if this was possible.

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard what Xue Biao said.

"Um?"

According to what Xue Pan said, Aunt Xue begged herself to transfer Xue Pan, who was sentenced to exile to the army, to serve in the Yulin Guards.

If things come true, the Xue family will be deeply grateful.

According to the original book of Red Mansion, after Xue Pan beat someone to death, the case was suppressed.

Just to avoid the limelight, the family moved to the capital to join the Jia family.

There is also the idea that Aunt Xue plans to arrange the marriage between Xue Baochai and Jia Baoyu.

However.

Because of Lin Chen's arrival, the plot has changed a lot.

At least Xue Pan was punished and convicted by Jia Zheng because of Lin Chen's instructions.

He had no good impression of Xue Pan, a dandy boy.

Whether he was alive or dead had nothing to do with Lin Chen.

I just didn't expect that Aunt Xue would beg Xue Biao to come to him.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment.

Seeing Lin Chen's silence, Xue Biao's heart began to beat.

Xue Biao, who thought the other party would refuse, saw Lin Chen nod.

Lin Chen seemed to have thought of something and said calmly:

"That's fine. Brother Biao, let's go back and tell Aunt Xue that if Xue Pan joins the Yulin Guards, don't think about the preferential treatment from this general!"

Hearing this, Xue Pan nodded quickly and said, "I don't dare. The Xue family only wants to save Xue Pan's life, and they don't dare to hope to escape the criminal law."

After talking about the business, Lin Chen and Xue Biao chatted about trivial matters in the capital.

For example, the specialty of the Ziwei Chamber of Commerce, icing sugar and refined salt, even Hu merchants are interested in buying, and the price is high.

Then there was news from the DPRK that Heshen recommended officials to commit corruption and pervert the law, and dozens of party members were arrested and imprisoned.

"He Shen?"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard what Xue Biao said.

After all, without Zhao Kuangyin, Heshen could be considered the only one in the court.

As a practitioner of the emperor's mental skills, Li Zhao couldn't help but suppress him.

Although he won't be beaten to death with a stick, he will definitely be beaten to death.

After all, Li Zhao was not Chongzhen and would not have cut off his arms.

After sending Xue Zhu away, Lin Chen rubbed his brows.

The bandit chaos in Shandong has temporarily subsided.

At present, the largest group of bandits is still a secret agent arranged by Lin Chen, and only operates in the fiefdom of King Qi.

All the bandits in the remaining state capitals were wiped out by the Yulin Guards.

For Lin Chen.

The biggest gain from this trip to Shandong is undoubtedly the power of the stars.

When Lin Chen thought of this, his eyes fell on the system page.

[Power of the Stars: 31]

If calculated according to the one hundred and eight constellations in the original book.

Nearly one-third of the constellation hosts have been recaptured or killed by Lin Chen!

As for what the power of the stars is used for.

Lin Chen touched his chin and looked at the system's introduction to the power of the stars.

[In the stars, the heavenly official comes to the world to perform the method of relieving misfortunes. 】

The so-called relief is a Buddhist term, which means to eliminate disasters.

But what Lin Chen saw in Shandong did not see anything to resolve the disaster. Instead, the place was disturbed by bandits and the people were uneasy.

[The power of the stars accumulated by the host can be converted into merit]

"Merit?"

Lin Chen had a look of surprise on his face.

[Merits and virtues are sent to you by the way of heaven. Those who hold a large number of them can be blessed by destiny and have a worry-free life]

If you speak human words, you are the son of destiny.

As the saying goes, when time comes, heaven and earth all work together, but heroes are not free when they go.

This surprised Lin Chen.

I didn't expect that the power of the stars could have such wonderful uses.

Originally, he had planned to lead his army to leave Shandong. After returning to Beijing, he would go straight to Huashan and go to the Zixiao Kunlun Conference with Feng Qingyang.

It seems right now.

Lin Chen should pay more attention to these Water Margin heroes who have the power of the stars.

Lin Chen's eyes lit up as he thought of something.

It is better to leave Song Jiang to continue in Shandong and recruit heroes from the Water Margin.

It happened to be a professional counterpart.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, Lin Chen asked someone to call Song Jiang and talk to him about the matter.

Song Jiang originally heard that Lin Chen planned to keep him in Shandong, and thought he had done something wrong to make Lin Chen unhappy.

Lin Chen saw Song Jiang's thoughts and immediately started drawing cakes.

For example, Lin Chen needed a trusted figure to take charge of matters in Shandong.

Song Jiang was greatly shocked when he heard this.

Are you so important?

"I am willing to die for my lord!"

No, Song Jiang, who was extremely excited, stood up and bowed down.

After seeing Song Jiang being fooled, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Then let Song Jiang manage the bandit forces that are still fighting guerrillas in Qi, and recruit heroes from the green forest while bleeding the King of Qi.

Lin Chen also gave Song Jiang a trick according to the plot of the original book Water Margin.

When Song Jiang arrives, he can set up a banner of justice for heaven and recruit heroes from the green forest.

When Song Jiang heard this, he couldn't help but be startled, and then his body was slightly excited and trembling.

"Are you doing justice for heaven?"

For some reason, Song Jiang felt that these four words were destined to him!

"If it comes to pass, I will definitely report it to Your Majesty and ask for credit for you!"

Lin Chen patted Song Jiang on the shoulder and said in a optimistic tone.
