I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 221

Entering December, most of the banquets held by the high society in the capital of the Galactic Empire are celebrating the arrival of the New Year.The banquet held at the Xishan Palace on December [-] was no different.

Lin Jian didn't care much about this matter at first, but Brandt persuaded her to attend, after all, the emperor will also be here, playing big cards in front of the emperor is not a wise person's approach.Therefore, Lin Jian, who spent the past few days at the military port where the Eighth Fleet is stationed, checking the installation and supply status of the new flagship, went to the banquet in military uniform.

Although the weather was cold, Lin Jian, who was sitting on the speeding car, still felt that she couldn't see through. The waist of the female officer's military uniform was too tight. Even though it had been loosened a lot at her request, it was still very tight uncomfortable.However, even so, let her wear a long dress in this snowy weather... Lin Jian felt that the military dress was not so unbearable.

Granshire's residence is not far from the Xishan Palace, but unfortunately, he has an important video conference today, and the participants are all the most cutting-edge genetic biologists in the galaxy.After so many years of genetic experiments, the first hidden second-stage gene was finally discovered. During this period of time, he was almost exhausted because of this matter, and he must not have time to accompany her to participate in such a politically significant event. banquet.

The flying car was parked in the parking lot of Xishan Palace.There is still some time before the banquet starts, but there are not many vacancies in the parking lot. It can be seen that tonight's banquet has received great attention from the upper class of Capital Star.

"Your Excellency, have fun!" Jin En parked the speeding car firmly in place, turned around, and said happily.As an adjutant, he couldn't follow Lin Jian into the banquet venue, he could only wait here, and he didn't know what he was happy about.

Lin Jian was helpless: "You don't have to wait for me here. Although I will come out as soon as possible, I have to wait until His Majesty the Emperor arrives. I am afraid that the time will not be short. The Xishan side is the most prosperous part of the empire. Go and play by yourself." Take a while, be careful." Jin En is only 17 years old this year, although he is quite tall and sensible, he is still a teenager after all.Xinxing is still fun, so Lin Jian proposed this.Sure enough, he saw the light in the young man's eyes.She was busy with official duties on weekdays, and Jin En, as an adjutant, had to follow her around. After a year, it must be very boring.

The flying car spun beautifully in the wind and snow in the air and flew out of sight. Lin Jian smiled. The officers of the Eighth Fleet are basically masters at flying aircraft. This state is led by Chen Jinglan and her flying team. Come on, this has become a striking symbol of the Eighth Fleet.

Just about to take a step, a speeding car just stopped at the parking space next door, blocking Lin Jian's way.Lin Jian gave up his position, intending to wait for the opponent to stop and go around.

I just didn't expect that it was Lin Mo who stepped out of the speeding car.

Lin Mo, who came out of the flying car, was also a little surprised when he saw Lin Jian who was a few steps away.After turning his head and whispering a few words to the adjutant, the speeding car stopped quietly. It seems that Lin Mo's adjutant can't compare with Jin En. When his boss attends the banquet, he can only stay in the car and wait quietly.

After saluting expressionlessly, Lin Jian put down his hands and waited for the other party to pass first.

"Alone?" However, Lin Mo didn't leave first, but walked to Lin Jian's side, his voice was as low as the air pressure tonight.

"Yes, Your Excellency." Lin Jian replied, her voice was flat and unwavering.Speaking of which, this is the first time the two have been alone together since their identities were revealed.She has no shame in her heart and looks up at the other party.

"Would you mind being a companion?" Lin Mo saw Lin Jian's expression, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he just pursed the corners of his lips.

Lin Jian paused, looked at him for a while in the dark, and then nodded.She knew that Lin Mo must have wanted to say something to her.

Walking all the way without saying a word to the banquet hall of the palace, the two of them immediately received attention.One is the youngest marshal who now holds the military power of the empire, and the other holds the title of duke and is also the commander of the fleet. The combination of these two has only one feeling in the hearts of many guests in the banquet hall at this time, that is "too wasteful." Already!"

Fortunately, these two are brother and sister, otherwise, given their identities and status, they would be a perfect match, and no one would try to get in their way.

Thinking of this, the faces of the well-dressed noble girls in the banquet hall burst into tears.Having said that, what about the most powerful woman in the empire? only contempt.

Lin Jian, who didn't know that she had become the center of sight, didn't notice these things. She followed Lin Mo halfway up and watched as he took the cloak and handed it to the palace attendants who had been waiting early in the morning.His movements are elegant and coherent, showing how harmoniously he gets along with this world everywhere, showing that he is a person who grew up in this world.

The palace banquet hall is brightly lit, and the gorgeous clothes of the guests are more radiant against the light. The band's performance is not in a hurry to create a suitable atmosphere. respectful smile.Compared with the snow-filled night outside the palace, this place is like another world.

But Lin Mo obviously didn't like this noisy environment. He looked around and walked towards the terrace floating outside the banquet hall, which was mostly covered by a huge curtain with silver tassels. A great place for a quiet conversation.

When Lin Mo was about to walk to the terrace, Lin Jian took a deep breath before following her. She needed a little time to build up her mind. Who knew what kind of storm would be hidden behind such calm.

The host of the banquet seemed to be very careful. On such a cold and snow-covered night, there were glasses of champagne placed on the unoccupied outdoor terrace.

Lin Mo did not hold the wine glass but lit a cigarette. Lin Jian walked to his side and picked up a wine glass.

It was very quiet here, and the noise of the crowd not far away seemed to be cut off by the half-covered curtain. At this moment, the only thing that came into my ears was the whistling sound of wind and snow.

"I heard you sent Parsifal here?" After a moment of silence, Lin Mo spoke.After the military meeting, he set off for the military port, where the two newly formed fleets are now on standby.Upon returning, heard about it from Fisher.

"Yes, the new flagship has been delivered." Lin Jian replied with a sip of champagne.

"Parsifal's performance is not good?"

Hearing Lin Mo's question, Lin Jian glanced at him in surprise, but the other party didn't look at her but still looked at the endless void outside. "I need a highly maneuverable flagship, and Parsifal's heavy artillery and armor are not suitable for me."

"Really." Lin Mo nodded, "What's the name of the new flagship?"

Lin Jian was really surprised. Could it be that he really planned to flirt with her?However, although she was surprised, she still patiently answered his question, "The name is Rosamund."

"Good name." After answering such a bland sentence, Lin Mo fell silent again. The cigarette in his hand had already burned to the end, and he extinguished it in the ashtray at hand. Some tangled. "I don't know what to call you."

Are you struggling with this issue?Lin Jian glanced at him, and replied lightly: "Lin Jian is also my name. It has always been my name."

This answer obviously surprised Lin Mo, but he recovered immediately.This is not difficult to understand. After Lin Jian "confessed", he immediately found Fang Zhe and asked him about it.Based on the "last words" of the alien species "Falainen" and the simulation experiments during this period, Fang Zhe believes that Lin Jian's theory is very likely to be true in theory. When the accident happened at that time, there must be some reason The mutual attraction between the two "second bodies" has led to the current situation.

Now that Lin Jian said that the two have the same name, this is probably not a coincidence, and it should be one of the reasons for this situation.

Lin Jian... She also has this name.

Lin Mo took a step forward and stood in front of the white jade fence on the terrace. Because he jumped out of the range of the gravity shelter, the open-air wind and snow hit him.The night wind mixed with snowflakes lifted the hair on his forehead, and the snowflakes hit his sharp-edged face, but he didn't care.

"I want to talk about our future relationship." After a long time, Lin Mo seemed to have finally made up his mind. He turned around and leaned his back against the fence, as if he no longer shy away from Lin Jian's eyes. The eyes reflect the lights projected from the magnificent banquet hall.His expression was the same as before, just like this cold night, but at this moment, Lin Jian suddenly felt that the inexplicable fear when facing Lin Mo for a long time suddenly disappeared, and disappeared in the thick darkness behind him middle.

"Our relationship?" Lin Jian asked back, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Our relationship has always been your decision, do I have room to question it?"

"Yes, you didn't." Lin Mo ignored the sarcasm in Lin Jian's tone and said lightly.

"You..." Lin Jian was angry.

"Because you have no room to refute, so I have the final say on our relationship. Based on your current ability to assess the situation, I don't think you will object to the request to 'maintain the current relationship'." Lin Mo continued to ignore Lin Jian's mood, continued.

"Keep the current relationship?" Lin Jian also stepped out of the gravity field. The cold wind at night calmed her mind a lot, but Lin Mo's words still surprised her, "You mean, brother-sister relationship?"

"Yes, exactly." Lin Mo replied, "For the Lin family, it is necessary to maintain this relationship. For you, this necessity also exists."

Lin Mo's answer was short but clear.The prestige of the Lin family and the trust of the court cannot tolerate any flaws.And Lin Jian's own position at this time is also based on this relationship.Ability is one aspect, but it is also the most insignificant aspect. Under this system, being trustworthy is the most important thing!And the basis for the court to trust her is that her surname is Lin, and she is the younger sister of the person in front of her!
Lin Jian turned his head and looked at the distant void. The sky was covered by thick clouds, and the starry sky that was clearly visible on weekdays was nowhere to be seen at this time.The night wind messed up her long hair, and the long, jet-black hair fluttered in the darkness, but she couldn't see clearly.

"It seems that I have taken advantage." After a long silence, Lin Jian laughed. She turned around, walked up to Lin Mo, and looked up at Lin Mo fearlessly for the first time, "But this It doesn't seem to mean that you will trust me, and this trip to Tiranmatta is probably the starting point for you to control me."

The difference in height made it easy for Lin Mo to look down at Lin Jian. Although she was smiling, her pure black eyes were colder than this snowy night.Really tough!Lin Mo sighed in his heart, even though he understood her situation, she planned to make a compromise, but mentally, she remained the same.

"I can't arbitrarily put the safety of the empire on unsure trust." Facing Lin Jian's gaze, Lin Mo turned his head to avoid the sharp edge, "However, it is not for you to follow me during the trip to Tiranmat. To control you."

Lin Jian was a little surprised by Lin Mo's words. He was about to ask, but there was a sudden commotion in the banquet hall. Soldiers from the palace guards appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall. The red carpet had already been rolled out, and His Majesty the Emperor had arrived.
