Chapter 91: In front of Li Chen, this is just a toy!

"It's okay, you go about your business; I'm just passing by to take a look."

Li Chen didn't care about her offense; on the contrary, seeing her serious appearance at work, he was very gratified.

"Your Majesty is looking for this humble subject; I don't know what for?"

Being able to see Li Chen, Lin Yue'e was full of joy; this was her direct superior.

The waist token on her body that signified imperial power was bestowed by Li Chen.

Without Li Chen, she might have already defected to a sect.

"Someone just sent me this thing; I don't have a use for it. Take a look and see if you can use it?"

Li Chen said this very casually, as if talking about some worthless little gadget.

But seeing the jade box carved with complex totems on the table, Lin Yue'e knew the things inside were worth a fortune.

Lin Yue'e definitely wouldn't accept gifts from others, but Li Chen's was different; what Li Chen gave was called a reward!

Since Li Chen let her open it, she wouldn't be polite.

Anyway, the favor couldn't be repaid; it didn't matter if it was a bit more.

Lin Yue'e took a deep breath, her heart full of tension and expectation, and then lightly and slowly lifted the lid of the jade box.

At that moment, a powerful and surging demonic power suddenly rushed toward her face, sweeping through her whole body like a storm.

Lin Yue'e only felt an unprecedented shock rise from the bottom of her heart; the moment she stared at the inner core, she seemed to be able to feel the majestic figure of the ancient spirit beast Ink Scale Ghost Snake surging in this tiny inner core.

Coming back to her senses, Lin Yue'e carefully examined this inner core emitting a faint ghost light.

Its surface was covered with fine patterns like snake scales; these patterns seemed to be a special language, carrying the life's learning of the Ink Scale Ghost Snake.

If Lin Yue'e could completely refine this, she would at least master part of the Ink Scale Ghost Snake's abilities.

Even so, she would be able to step into the ranks of the May Tian Ce Dynasty's experts.

Lin Yue'e's gaze was fixed tightly on that inner core, her heartbeat accelerating, as if it were about to jump out of her chest.

She remembered that the highest reward of the Fire Fighting Academy in the last four years was the inner core of a thousand-year spirit beast.

That inner core had already caused a huge sensation at the time and was a treasure all students dreamed of.

However, with Lin Yue'e's strength at the time, she couldn't touch such treasures at all and could only secretly envy the winner of the treasure.

And at this moment, the quality of the inner core in her hand was so high that it was simply beyond imagination.

Compared with that thousand-year spirit beast inner core, it was simply not on the same level.

She raised her head to look at Li Chen, with grateful light flashing in her eyes.

"Many thanks for Your Majesty's reward; this humble subject will definitely exhaust my efforts to share the burden for Your Majesty, and I will not hesitate even if I die!"

Something Li Chen bestowed casually might be something that could change her fate.

Being able to give such things, let alone Lin Yue'e, no one could hold up!

It was no exaggeration to say that she felt her life was Li Chen's; even if Li Chen asked her to climb a mountain of knives or go into a sea of oil, she wouldn't hesitate at all.

"It's not a big problem; you just work hard, and if you have trouble, come find me."

In any case, Li Chen had nothing to do; occasionally acting as an angel investor and watching the growth of these subordinates he was nurturing was also a kind of joy.

Raising Li Sining in the palace and Lin Yue'e outside the palace were both his hobbies.

Most importantly, I ate meat yesterday, so I'll let you be happy today too.

As for why Li Chen didn't have this kind of shock when he opened the inner core to check, it was because he was in the Sage Realm, and the special effects of spirit beast inner cores were not as strong as his.

In front of Li Chen, this was just a toy.

But in front of others, this was a divine object that was unreachable!

After chatting for a while, Li Chen sat in the position she had just sat in and reviewed the files she was looking at.

"Eh? You are investigating the Crown Princess?"

On the file, it was clearly the life and family information of the Crown Princess.

Ordinary people really couldn't investigate information of this level.

But Lin Yue'e had Li Chen's waist token, so she wasn't an ordinary person.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Crown Princess's maid's movements have been a bit suspicious recently, and she has entered and exited the teaching division. I discovered it inadvertently while following the Prince of Zhennan's heir, Xu Zifeng, so I came back to check it by the way."

Lin Yue'e's intuition was especially sensitive; she always felt there was a problem here.

Speaking of the Crown Princess, Li Chen had seen her a few times, all at some relatively large palace banquets. At that time, Li Chen didn't like to contact these bright and dazzling people, so he didn't pay attention.

"Then you investigate well; remember to tell me if there are results."

Li Chen didn't have much interest in the Crown Prince's death case; if it could be investigated, it would be investigated; if not, so be it, as long as it didn't hinder him from being carefree.

As for Lin Yue'e's focus, it was naturally catching Xu Zifeng.

Li Chen was equivalent to the biggest NPC in this court, who could issue tasks to his subordinates.

For example, the Minister of War, Li Chen issued him an outrageous task, which was to go and catch the Third Prince.

This task he couldn't even refuse.

Resulting in this guy not having returned to the Imperial Capital until now.

And Lin Yue'e belonged to the lucky one whose task was simple but the reward was generous.

After saying these things, Li Chen left the government office under Lin Yue'e's gaze.

In fact, she still wanted to send him a distance, but following her way of sending, it was estimated that she couldn't stop even if she sent Li Chen back to the sleeping quarters, so Li Chen waved his hand to let her busy herself.

!

Returning to the place where she worked, Lin Yue'e looked at the position Li Chen had just sat in, and a strange look appeared in her eyes.

After a while, Lin Yue'e also led her team to leave the government office and started her main task for today.

Even if Xu Zifeng stayed at home, she had to find a way to catch Xu Zifeng and put him in jail.

But Xu Zifeng didn't give her a hard time; at this moment, he was causing trouble in the teaching division.

Just now Lin Yue'e was actually in the teaching division, but she sensed some problems, so she came back to check the files.

Recently, besides Li Chen, the one in a better mood was the Sage's remnant soul.

Because Xiao Ming's peach blossom luck had been hijacked by someone again!

After completing his work at the Ministry of Justice, Xiao Ming came to Yunyin Street, the Wu family shop.

Not seeing Wu Nanzhi, he searched nearby.

This kid's peach blossom luck was truly outrageous; he found Wu Nanzhi, who was encountering trouble in the residential area of Changqing Street next door, just by searching casually.

Wu Nanzhi had agreed with Li Chen to meet here, so she was waiting for him here.

Who knew Ma Gao wouldn't change his nature, really finding her residence and pestering her endlessly.

This made Wu Nanzhi very annoyed; if it weren't for fear that Li Chen wouldn't find her when he came, she would have left directly.

Xiao Ming was overjoyed to see this; it just so happened he had time today, so two hero-saves-beauty could surely invite this beauty to a meal, right?

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming rushed up and gave a flying kick.

Ma Gao's cultivation base couldn't compare to Xiao Ming's, and he was kicked flying several meters away, lying on the ground spitting blood.

"Hey, you thief, still not changing your nature! How am I going to deal with you today!"

Hearing it was Xiao Ming's voice, Ma Gao wanted to curse.

How come you are everywhere? Today I was just talking, and I hadn't done anything yet.

Ma Gao's subordinates helped him up, and Ma Gao said he wanted to report to the officials!

Xiao Ming laughed; I am the official, where are you going to report me?

And I was appreciated by the Minister of Justice, Pang Jin, today; that's a big official, what do you have to fight me with?

Minister of Justice, this title was so scary.

That feeling of having a backer made Xiao Ming walk very confidently.

Just when the two were spitting at each other, a man who was handsome to an outrageous degree walked over.

This man only needed to hook his finger, and the goddess of Xiao Ming and Ma Gao would run over happily.

It felt as if things he couldn't even touch were just playthings for others.

Even if Xiao Ming was a fool, he could see that the goddess whose name he didn't even know must have a relationship with this man.

What! I haven't started sycophancy yet, and the goddess is gone?

Xiao Ming hated two people in his life; one was the emperor, and the other was the man in front of him.

What he didn't know was that these two were actually the same person.
