A brilliant light flashed across his eyes, and then disappeared again.
He recognized who the voice was.
"Eunuch Liu, I have troubled you to come here from heaven again."
Lin Chen smiled and went to open the door.
Outside the door, stood Liu Ya.
Liu Ya glanced at Lin Chen with a smile, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Master Hou, congratulations, congratulations! This time when I go to heaven, I heard that His Majesty is going to reward you with a series of treasures to reward you for your unification of the Yuan Dynasty.
What a great contribution he made when he was in the state!"
"Really, is there anything else going on?"
Lin Chen was surprised, he didn't expect any reward.
However, it can be seen that Qin Renhuang is a very kind person!
Some emperors were afraid that their heroes would be too dazzling and their achievements would shock their masters, so they would constantly suppress them.
Even if the hero really reaches a high place, it will be difficult for him to escape unscathed.
However, Qin Renhuang was able to maintain the balance.
The four heavenly kings who have followed her to this day, as well as the clans behind them, are living a good life.
From this point we can see that Qin Renhuang was a man who treated his heroes well.
"Yes, His Majesty is very satisfied with your performance. You are a meritorious official and you naturally deserve a reward!"
Liu Ya rubbed his hands and said, "Master Hou, let's go and go to heaven?"
Lin Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I just returned to Jiutian Continent not long ago, and my buttocks haven't even warmed up yet, so I'm leaving?"
"Our family is just a messenger of His Majesty's will."
Liu Ya grimaced, "Master Hou, you can't let His Majesty do that, can you?"
"Okay, let's go then."
Lin Chen nodded, having said this, what else could he say?
So, Lin Chen followed Liu Ya and embarked on his way back to heaven.
The flying boat passed by.
Pierce the clouds.
Very fast.
"It's so fast. I remember last time, my father-in-law came to pick me up like this too."
Lin Chen recalled the last time, and the corner of his mouth curved, "Why don't you tell me, father-in-law, what will your Majesty reward me this time?"
"The Zhao Clan has Tianhe Prefecture, the Wei Clan has Chihai Prefecture, the Li Clan has Xingluo Prefecture, and the Bai Clan has Mingshan Prefecture."
Liu Ya had a mysterious smile on his face, "Master Hou, your current status is no lower than that of the four heavenly kings. They all have fiefs, so you should have one too, right?"
"I already have Yongye State."
Lin Chen said frankly, "Does your Majesty want to reward me with another fiefdom?"
"Hey, Lord Marquis, look at what you said. Although you have been in control of Yongye Prefecture all these years, and it was actually you who made Yongye Prefecture develop, but the whole world is not the land of the king, and the shore of the land is not the land of the king.
Wang Chen, if you say that Yongye State is yours, who else will admit it? Doesn’t all this still depend on His Majesty’s will?”
Liu Ya blinked and said seriously, "Your Majesty says it's yours, then it's yours. If Your Majesty says it's not yours, with a stroke of a pen, you can directly transfer Yongye Prefecture to other people's jurisdiction. That's it."
Simple!"
"So, your Majesty is going to issue a decree to award Yongye State to me?"
Lin Chen was very interested.
He finally figured it out.
Whatever you do, you need to pay attention to your individual skills.
Although he is actually the helmsman of Yongye State, he does not have a grant from His Majesty.
Therefore, if you take this name out, people won’t recognize it at all!
However, once His Majesty gives the reward, it will be different.
From now on, the entire Yongye State will be written with the name "Lin Chen"!
It’s that simple and straightforward!
"Yes, Mr. Hou finally guessed it right."
Liu Ya clapped his hands and said with a smile, "I can only say that Mr. Hou is very promising at a young age. In just a short time, he has equaled the accumulation of other kings for so many years. I can only say that Mr. Hou is not only blessed with great luck, but also has great achievements.
Even the speed of development is different from ordinary people!”
Lin Chen smiled slightly and then closed his eyes.
It’s pretty much what he guessed!
He had long thought that Yongye Prefecture would discuss the ownership issue.
Otherwise, if you just say it yourself, he doesn’t count!
He said that Yongye State is his own. Without His Majesty's order, who would admit it?
"Master Hou, are you and Li Clan... somewhat incompatible?"
Liu Ya was silent for a while, and then added another sentence.
"Huh? Whatever Eunuch Liu wants to say, just say it!"
Lin Chen couldn't help but said after hearing this.
"Well, in the past few months, Li Clan has been submitting memorials to ask Your Majesty to make an early decision on the ownership of Yongye Prefecture. His proposal to Your Majesty is to let the four great clans intervene in Yongye Prefecture and jointly divide and rule it.
!”
Eunuch Liu smiled bitterly.
"Does this Li clan want to get a share of my territory? However, even if he pulls the other three clan clans as a backrest, he still can't stop this ugly appearance!"
Lin Chen sneered, "Not to mention whether the other three gatekeepers are willing or not, it really shocks me that Mr. Li can say such a thing. His thickness of skin is far beyond that of ordinary people!"
"Li Clan has always acted like this. Over the years, he has become accustomed to it."
Liu Ya shook his head, "I have been waiting by your Majesty's side. Many times, other local officials came to report memorials. Without exception, they all accused the Li clan. However, Li Songlin had great achievements and was the earliest hero in establishing the Qin Dynasty.
One of the Great Heavenly Kings is not that easy to move!"
"Mainly, Your Majesty is not willing to move, right?"
Lin Chen raised his eyebrows.
Liu Ya looked embarrassed, "We don't talk about this in our family. As a slave, how can we talk about His Majesty?"
Others didn't know it, but Lin Chen knew it.
The reason why Qin Renhuang did not deal with these affairs cleanly and neatly was mostly because he wanted to show Taiyi Sect.
If she acts too dazzlingly, Taiyimen will definitely panic if she sees it.
What they need is an emperor who can unify, not an emperor who can lead the Tianyuan world to continue to develop!
Under pressure from Lin Yuan, they compromised once and allowed Qin Renhuang to cut off the first shackles.
How could the subsequent shackles be broken so easily for her?
It is conceivable that the control over the Tianyuan world will become increasingly strict!
"Your Majesty is self-willed, violent by nature, militaristic, and extremely warlike..."
Lin Chen talked eloquently, "If I hadn't offered the policy of Anguo and used the method of Da Qin Bank to alleviate internal conflicts, I'm afraid that the conflicts that have been accumulated for a long time would have exploded!"
He knew that Qin Renhuang deliberately behaved well in order to conceal Ye Qilin.
Therefore, what kind of appearance will it appear!
Liu Ya's expression changed and he waved his hand quickly, "I dare not say nonsense. Your Majesty is so wise and powerful. Without the previous six Northern Expeditions, how could he have achieved the success and glory of the last Northern Expedition? It can only be said that everything is complementary to each other!"
Lin Chen raised his head and looked into the distance.
As a member of Ye Qilin, Lin Chen feels that everything in the future is promising!
After arriving at the Tianting Imperial City, Lin Chen washed up at the Hou Mansion and changed his clothes before following Liu Ya into the palace.
He went directly to the imperial study room.
In the study room.
A huge screen was erected.
Qin Renhuang was sitting behind the screen, reading a book.
After Lin Chen arrived, he cupped his hands and said, neither humble nor arrogant, "I have met Your Majesty!"
Liu Ya stood aside, eyes wide with anxiety, "Master Marquis, you kneel down, why don't you kneel down when you see His Majesty?"
He frantically sent a message to Lin Chen, almost worrying him to death.
However, Lin Chen still stood proudly like a javelin, motionless.
"That's all."
Qin Renhuang's slightly cold voice came from inside, "If you don't kneel, don't kneel. Who made me... willing to support you? I know that An Guo policy and various strategies all came from Zhao Shanhe.
Hands, but still the credit goes to you!"
Lin Chen was stunned. His Majesty did not say that when he went to court last time.
He was about to retort when a palace maid walked in and said, "Your Majesty, I'm here to bring you food."
"Bring it in."
Qin Renhuang's voice was cold.
The maid nodded quickly and carefully sent the things in.
After finishing, she bowed and said goodbye.
After walking a few hundred meters and making sure that no one was peeping at her, the maid couldn't help but change her face and murmured, "Sure enough, Lin Chen has no skills, but he is just more talented, so Qin Renhuang wants to
Put all the credit on his head!"
"Is this to recruit his confidants into the court to check and balance the four heavenly kings?"
The maid sneered, "He is indeed a simple-minded, willful and foolish king. Even if Lin Chen has a good relationship with the Zhao family, how can the Zhao family be happy if you flatter him like this? Sooner or later, you will ruin it all!"
She is a spy placed by the Taiyi Sect next to Qin Renhuang.
There are many similar people.
Therefore, Qin Renhuang spent most of his time acting for this group of people.
She clearly has a talent that is unparalleled throughout the ages, but she cannot show it and can only make herself a fool.
But not to the extreme!
The degree of this is difficult to grasp.
Once something goes wrong, the trap may be exposed.
Lin Chen suddenly understood Qin Renhuang’s intention!
She did this on purpose to show her stupidity to the outside world!
He forcibly promoted himself to compete with the four heavenly kings.
It is foreseeable that they will definitely be dissatisfied.
This is just showing off to outsiders!
Your Majesty is an ordinary person and there is no need to pretend.
There's only one way to say it...
'The maid before was a spy from Taiyi Sect!'
Lin Chen thought through all this in an instant.
He cupped his hand and said, "Thank you for your cultivation, your Majesty. I will definitely become your Majesty's most loyal henchman in the future!"
He spoke like a joke, not serious at all.
Qin Renhuang did not smile playfully at him, and said coldly, "Yongye Prefecture has never established its ownership over the years. Since you have single-handedly developed Yongye Prefecture to what it is today, then I am too lazy to find other people to divide it and rule it. From now on,
From now on, Yongye Prefecture will belong to your territory, and your surname will be Lin from now on!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty..."
Lin Chen was about to praise him a few words, but suddenly felt something was wrong.
The Emperor of Qin rose against the will of heaven more than 10,000 years ago, and now, it has been more than 10,000 years.
He immediately changed his words and said, "I wish your Majesty a long life!"
"Well, I will draw up a decree soon. You, go down."
Qin Renhuang waved his hands, seeming a little tired.
Lin Chen cupped his hands and walked out of the imperial study room.
Unexpectedly, even His Majesty the Human Emperor cannot express his feelings as he wishes.
All we can say is that Taiyi Sect is too vicious and pervasive!
Lin Chen returned to the Hou Mansion.
Two hours later, a piece of news exploded directly in the Imperial City!
Your Majesty confirmed the ownership of Yongye State, and she granted the entire state to Lin Chen. From now on, Lin Chen, like the other four heavenly kings, will have a state as a fief.
This news is very exciting!
Countless drinkers in the restaurant are discussing——
"This is to vigorously support Lin Chen. Although he has just been promoted to a prince, he already owns a fiefdom in a large state!"
"Indeed, this is too powerful and unbelievable!"
"Is Your Majesty trying to flatter him?"
"Tsk, but I do have a lot of merit, so I can't praise him for it!"
"Who said that? How did I hear that His Majesty forcibly placed all these credits on him?"
"You mean, His Majesty wants to forcefully create another king?"
"Nine times out of ten!"
"Damn it, this is too dark!"
There are all kinds of speculations.
The fact that Lin Chen obtained the fiefdom of Yongye State had a great negative impact.
Many cultivators believe that Lin Chen is not qualified to stand on an equal footing with the other four heavenly kings!
How much contribution have others made?
That is the person who has been with His Majesty since the Qin Empire was not established!
They had been living around for so many years before they were rewarded with a fiefdom and were named a noble family with their own surnames.
This is a supreme honor!
Where is Lin Chen?
Everyone admits that he has some merit.
However, it has not yet been determined whether those credits belong to him.
Under this premise, would you directly elevate Lin Chen to the same level as the Four Heavenly Kings?
Are you really not afraid that other heavenly kings will have different intentions?
"protest!"
"There's something shady about this!"
"Give us an explanation!"
"In the past, so many seniors gave their all and only received some other rewards in the end. How come you were directly made a prince within two years of coming to Heaven, and even Yongye Province became yours?"
"There must be something fishy in this!"
Outside the Hou Mansion, there was a huge buzz of people.
"Master Hou, hundreds of people have gathered outside and are gathering around the door to ask for an explanation!"
A maid walked up quickly with an anxious look on her face, her hands clenched tightly.
"Um?"
Lin Chen lay lazily on the recliner and waved his hands, "If they want to make trouble, let them make trouble. It has nothing to do with me anyway, and I don't care. Now, I just want to enjoy this rare peace and quiet!"
The maid was about to burst into tears, "Master Hou, we can't let them gather together, it will have a bad impact if it continues like this!"
"Is it a bad influence?"
Lin Chen raised his eyebrows, then waved his hand, "What kind of influence do you want? If you go out and drive them away, then it will really have a bad influence! Then they spread the word at will, and we, the Dingtianhou Mansion, beat people at will, and we don't know.
How it spreads!"
"I can only say that human words are terrible!"
Lin Chen sighed with a look on his face, "Only a small number of them are deliberately making trouble. Most of them are ignorant people who are incited by their emotions. There is no need to argue too much with them or to reduce prices!"
The maid seemed to understand, and nodded, "Then... that's okay."
Just like that, three days passed.
The number of people making trouble reached up to four to five thousand, and the road outside Dingtianhou Mansion was completely surrounded.
Because there are rumors that Lin Chen was forcibly raised.
In fact, he has not accomplished anything!
It was His Majesty who took away Zhao Shanhe's contribution and put it on Lin Chen's head.
As soon as this news comes out, good guy, can you still get it?
In an instant, there were more and more attacks and curses against Lin Chen.
On the fifth day, except for some leaders, most of the troublemakers dispersed.
"Come here, follow the leaders and see which force they come from."
Lin Chen stood in the void, looking down.
Beside him were several powerful men from the Hou Mansion.
"Sir, leave it to us."
These people were scattered in all directions.
In fact, Lin Chen almost had the answer in his heart.
Either the Li Clan or the Lin Clan.
The Zhan Lin Clan wouldn't dare to make such a leap in the imperial city, most likely it was the Li Clan.
Half an hour later, the strong men who had gone out returned one by one, "Sir, we have found out clearly that these guys spreading rumors are all from the Li clan. This is what they planned!"
"Well, that's as expected."
Lin Chen counted with his fingers and found that there should still be some time before Taiyi Gate arrives.
Just in time, during this period, let's settle the accounts with Zhan Linmen!
"Go back. Don't go out for the next period of time. Wait for my instructions."
"Yes, sir."
Those people nodded immediately.
Lin Chen returned to the Hou Mansion and waited patiently for the information to arrive.
He had previously asked Zhao Wanye to investigate false information.
I won’t say whether to kill the other person or not, but at the very least, this person must die!
If it weren't for him, how could this battle in Yuanzhou be so difficult?
This guy really deserves to be killed!
The next day.
Lin Chen sat in the courtyard for a whole day.
Finally, a spiritual pattern seemed to have grown wings and delivered a letter to him.
He raised his hand to grab the letter and opened it.
It was the information sent by Zhao Wanye——
"Congratulations, boy, now you have become the true helmsman of the entire Yongye State. Some time ago, Li Clan had been wanting to do something in Yongye State, but my father forced him to suppress it. Your Majesty will grant Yongye State the title
For you, there should be some considerations!"
"Also, I found out the information you asked me to find out. It wasted a lot of my resources. Then you will treat me to a drink!"
"The headquarters of Zhanlin Sect is in this barren mountain. I have drawn the map for you. Remember not to make too much noise, otherwise Li Clan will take action and it will be in trouble!"
Inside, there are handwritings written by Zhao Wanye himself.
Lin Chen took apart the last map and glanced at it.
The headquarters of Zhanlinmen is located in a barren mountain not far from the imperial city.
"It's so close. If I go there now, I can even come back in time for lunch."
Lin Chen raised his head and looked at the sky. Now that the morning light had just appeared, everything felt like a newborn.
Counting the back and forth and killing, the time should be enough.
Previously, Xu Sheng wantonly massacred the genius of the Lin family.
This time, it's your turn to take revenge, right?
Every wrongdoer has his head, and every debt has his own owner.
I want to recover all the grudges I accumulated back then!
Lin Chen put away the information and quickly left the imperial city.
He swept towards the barren mountain according to the direction drawn on the map.
Along the way, Lin Chen lost his breath.
This time he wants to destroy Zhan Linmen silently!
Therefore, it is not suitable to be too public.
After about half an hour, Lin Chen arrived outside the barren mountain.
From the corner of his mouth, an arc was outlined.
