My wife is a queen

Half a month after the Dongfang family was wiped out, Lin Chen and Ji Ziyue made a request to redeem her from the palace.

But Ji Ziyue did not agree.

The reason is that she still has important things to do in the palace.

"A very important thing?"

Under the bright night sky, there is still the octagonal pavilion where we first met.

The river flows calmly.

Lin Chen asked a question.

Ji Ziyue nodded heavily, she held Lin Chen's hand, and said with sincere eyes: "What I said is true, but I can't tell you the real reason."

"If that's the case, what's the deal with the 10 taels of ransom?"

Lin Chen felt a little uncomfortable, he felt that he had been deceived.

And the person who lied to him was his most beloved girl in front of him.

"Because I can't tell the real reason, I can only find this excuse." Ji Ziyue hesitated for a while, and then said.

She didn't want to lie to Lin Chen, but it wasn't time to tell everything yet.

"Husband."

Ji Ziyue took a deep breath, and stared straight at Lin Chen with eyes like clear springs.

The eyes are clear, without any impurities in them.

"Do you believe me?"

Ji Ziyue asked, and after she finished speaking, there was a hint of hidden expectation in her eyes.

"Of course I believe you."

Lin Chen said without hesitation.

Ji Ziyue laughed happily.

"Wait a little longer, when I finish my work, I will go out of the palace to find you."

heard.

Lin Chen became silent.

Ji Ziyue's happy smile also gradually disappeared.

But the next moment, Lin Chen raised his head, with a smile in his eyes, "At that time, do you still need the 10 taels of ransom?"

Ji Ziyue was startled.

Then she chuckled, couldn't help stretching out her powder fist, and lightly hammered Lin Chen's chest.

"You scared me to death. I thought you disagreed."

Lin Chen grabbed her fist and pressed it to his heart.

Looking at Ji Ziyue seriously, Lin Chen said softly: "You are the most important person in this world to me, I don't believe who else you can trust. It's just that you can't tell me what you did, in case of danger what to do?"

This is almost a sizzling love statement.

It made Ji Ziyue's heart pounding.

Her face was slightly red, and she said softly: "Don't worry, there will be no problem."

After that night.

There was no gap between the two.

Lin Chen also practiced during the day and worked and rested according to the time when he got together at night.

But at the same time, his attention to Happy Forest has relatively decreased.

Happy Forest is now completely under the control of Erdan.

Lin Chen also handed over all the martial arts and martial arts from the Dongfang family to Erdan, and asked him to practice them for the guys in the restaurant.

Another month has passed.

Lin Chen has made considerable progress in cultivation.

Although the state is still the extreme state of the master, it has become more and more condensed.

At the same time, Xuanshenjin has also made considerable progress.

Spiritual consciousness can detect all movement within a radius of ten meters.

Also learned the means of spiritual attack.

But other than that.

He also made a major discovery.

night.

It's the appointed time.

Lin Chen left the backyard and came to Xingfeng Restaurant in Dongcheng District.

At this time, the restaurant has already proofed.

While waiting for Ji Ziyue, Lin Chen unfolded his consciousness boredly, and found that Sun Dong was fast asleep because he was drunk.

Some bad tastes could not help but arise in my heart.

"control!"

Outside Xingfeng Restaurant, Lin Chen took out a jug of fine wine from the storage bag and controlled it with his spiritual sense.

Controlling consciousness.

The jug entered Xingfeng Restaurant and came in front of Sun Dong.

The jug is slightly light.

Wisps of fine wine slowly poured down the mouth of the wine.

Immediately, the whole room was filled with the aroma of wine.

Sun Dong, who was lying on the table, couldn't help sniffling.

Then suddenly opened his eyes.

"what!"

Sun Dong yelled, and immediately fell backwards.

Because in his line of sight, there seemed to be an invisible person in front of him, holding a flagon and slowly pouring wine.

At the same time, a cold wind blows.

There was a look of fear in Sun Dong's eyes.

"It's a human or a ghost! Come out and speak!"

Sun Dong pretended to be loud and shouted towards the surroundings.

But there was silence all around, without any sound.

Instead, it was filled with the echo of Sun Dong and the slow pouring of wine from the jug.

Finally, the wine in the jug was poured out.

click.

The jug fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Sun Dong suddenly shuddered, and goosebumps fell all over the floor.

Outside the restaurant.

Lin Chen watched Sun Dong's movements in his consciousness with satisfaction, and withdrew his consciousness.

Take it when you see it.

It happened that Ji Ziyue also came over.

"What's the matter? Husband." Ji Ziyue looked at the happy Lin Chen and asked curiously.

Lin Chen rubbed his nose, not ashamed to say what he did just now, and said with a smile: "I just thought of something funny. By the way, I thought of another very good plan about the question you asked me last night."

Lin Chen changed the subject.

Sure enough, Ji Ziyue's eyes lit up.

The two walked along the street, and Ji Ziyue couldn't wait to ask: "Husband, what plan do you think of?"

"Before answering this question, I want to know why the lady asked me these things?"

Lin Chen turned his head to look at Ji Ziyue.

"Ah?" Ji Ziyue showed a tangled look on her face, "It's just that Fenghuang has been talking next to me recently, so I'm more curious."

Lin Chen could tell at a glance that she was lying, but he didn't expose it.

To be honest, since that night, he began to doubt the identity of his lady.

And this time I intend to do a verification.

"Although I am not an official in the imperial court, I have more or less heard a lot of news from the people. Now in Daxia, although King Wei put down the rebellion in just one month."

"But Daxia is still in the midst of internal and external troubles."

Lin Chen paused and continued.

"For example, the cleansing operation after the demise of the Dongfang family, although it looked like a big move, the effect of the harvest was minimal."

Lin Chen said sharply.

Ji Ziyue nodded unconsciously.

Lin Chen was right, after that day, she asked Phoenix Guard and Xue Longqi to capture the family.

But only a few upstarts were found.

And the family's reaction was also fierce.

This made Ji Ziyue have no choice but to give up in the end.

"So, the reform of the empire needs to start from the root."

"Then what is the foundation of the empire?"

Lin Chen looked at Ji Ziyue with a full smile.

The latter replied in a low voice: "Strength? Resources?"

Lin Chen shook his head, "These are indeed important factors, but the most fundamental thing is talent."

"Talent?" Ji Ziyue repeated thoughtfully.

"Yes, it's talent and fresh blood, but the road to becoming an official has long been monopolized by major families, so we're back to the beginning."

"How to reform, the answer is to hold the imperial examination system, let those children from poor families who have no chance to be in the officialdom participate in it, and let talents from all over the country enter Luoyang City."

Lin Chen said slowly.

Ji Ziyue showed a bewildered look on her face, and Lin Chen began to explain what the imperial examination system was.
