I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 289

Since coming out of the palace, Lin Mo has been staying in his office in the military building.The layout of this office has not changed a bit since he left here half a year ago.The morning sun shines in through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, gradually illuminating the interior of the house.

It's time to leave, to leave this office, to leave this position, to leave this path that I have been determined and asked to walk since I was a child.Lin Mo smiled, reached out and took off the epaulettes on his shoulders, and then put them on the white letter of appointment on the large desk.The marshal's staff had been returned to the emperor last night, and these two things were left to represent the status of the marshal.

After doing this, he stood up, opened the door of the office and walked out without looking back.

"Your Excellency." After seeing Lin Mo walk out of the office, Fisher, who had been waiting outside, followed immediately.

Lin Mo stopped and looked at the young adjutant who had been following him. "Fisher, you don't have to follow me anymore. Isn't the appointment letter from the military department already down?"

"Yes." Fisher paused and replied, "I was transferred to the General Intelligence Division."

Lin Mo nodded upon hearing the words, "She's not the kind of headstrong person, and I'm glad she didn't embarrass you. Fisher, you must bear the responsibility of an imperial soldier at any time, and you must keep this in mind."

"Yes!" Fisher raised his hand to salute Lin Mo. He has done this countless times, and this time may be the last time.Seeing Lin Mo turn away with a smile, he reached out and touched his eyes, and couldn't help shouting, "Your Excellency! Will you attend the funeral of Marshal Brandino?"

Lin Mo stopped, looked back at him, and nodded, "Of course."

On August [-]rd, there was continuous drizzle on the capital of the Galactic Empire.

On this day, Marshal Brandino's funeral was held in the Donghai Cemetery where countless loyal bones of the empire were buried.

Lin Mo drove the flying car to the entrance of the cemetery by himself. As soon as he got off the car, he saw Fisher waiting at the entrance.

"Your Excellency!" Fisher saluted reflexively, and then saw that Lin Mo was not wearing a military uniform, but an ordinary shirt and trousers.He put down his hand in embarrassment, he was used to seeing Lin Mo's military uniform, and Fisher felt a little uncomfortable at this moment.

"Don't do this in the future." Lin Mo reached out and patted Fisher on the shoulder.At this time, the guards standing outside the cemetery also raised their hands to salute him with a standard military salute.

The imperial military song resounded in a low voice, echoing in the silent cemetery.

Lin Mo stood under a towering pine tree, watching a line of guards escorting the coffin of Marshal Brandino to the cemetery belonging to the old marshal.The young emperor wore a grand military uniform, black ribbon and black cloak to express respect and courtesy to the dead.Hathaway was dressed in plain clothes and did not wear a military uniform. Her face was a bit bleak and frowning. This was the first time she appeared in front of everyone after the rebellion.

Not far from the emperor's side, Lin Jian, who was dressed in a marshal's uniform, stood there quietly.This is the first ever female Marshal of the Empire.It is probably the first time for a military uniform designer to design a marshal uniform for a woman.The gold epaulets of the rose and sword symbolizing the supreme commander of the military department have been worn on her shoulders, and the ribbon decorated with gold chains runs diagonally from her left shoulder through the whole coat, ending at the waist and decorated with bright shield-shaped badges.The sword and shield symbolize that this man is the sharp edge and solid guardian of the empire.

In the misty rain and fog, she stood taller than Cui Bai behind her.Covered by the dense fog, the expression on her face was somewhat indistinct.

Lin Mo closed his eyes, and the majestic military song of the listener was recited in this sad way.

Praise this era, chant the great bloodline, our footsteps will never get tired...

He stood up straight, and let the movement sung over and over again wash away the gunpowder smoke all over his body, peeling off the rust in the depths of his soul little by little.He thought, maybe from this moment on, his soul could really be his own.

The rain gradually stopped, and this grand and grand funeral was over.

Standing at the gate of the cemetery, Lin Mo didn't pay any attention to those who passed by him and showed various eyes. His eyes only followed Lin Jian who was striding forward, until she passed by his side, followed by It's her adjutant.

"Lin Jian." He stopped her, but she just stopped and didn't turn her head to look at him. "I heard about Lin Zi, thank you for tolerating him, I will control him."

Her expression didn't change at all, and after he finished speaking, she walked towards her speeding car parked not far away without a trace of hesitation, and never turned her head to look at him from the beginning to the end.

It can be seen that his sharpness that night chiseled her even more.

That's it... Lin Mo looked at the back of her leaving. That firm back made people feel stronger than ever. That's the way. Go forward to your goal wholeheartedly and don't be bound by anything.

Lin Mo turned around and walked in the opposite direction, but when he got to the side of the speeding car, he finally looked back at the trace left by the fiery red speeding car in the sky.He smiled, turned around and stepped onto the speeding car.

"Your Excellency, the Marquess of Chatterley is waiting for you in your office." On the flying car, Jin En opened today's itinerary, and found this item inserted in the itinerary by the confidential secretary.The imperial prime minister's request for an audience was obviously more important than other itineraries, and the confidential secretary directly put this item at the top of the itinerary and inserted it in the most conspicuous way.

"Well, has he finally lost his grip?" Lin Jian smiled and told Jin En, "Go back to the office."

Hearing this, Jin En immediately changed the direction of the speeding car. The fiery red speeding car circled in the air for a while, and then flew towards the palace.

After accepting the salute from the guards, Lin Jian pushed open the door of the office and walked in. He immediately saw the Marquess of Chatterley, the prime minister of the empire, sitting on the reception sofa.After seeing her come in, the first high-ranking official of the empire stood up, and this action had declared his bowing posture.

Lin Jian tore off the cloak and threw it to Jin En, walked to the Marquess of Chatterley and sat down on the sofa opposite him.

"So, have you already made a choice?"

Hearing Lin Jian's unprepared and straightforward question, the astonishment on the face of the Marquess of Chatterley flashed across, and then he laughed: "Marshal, although I personally appreciate your military style of not dragging your feet , but sometimes it can be seen as immature crudeness."

"Did you know? Your Excellency the Marquis." Lin Jian, leaning back on the sofa chair, supported his chin with one hand, and snapped his fingers at the once powerful earl with the other, "Personally, I hate being with Talking to someone like you. Especially this kind of posture that makes people feel condescending but pretending to be humble. If you plan to cooperate with me, you'd better put away your hypocritical appearance from now on, at least In front of me."

If you are accused of being simple and rude, you will fight back in an even simpler and rude way...

A rare embarrassment appeared on the face of the prime minister of the empire. I am afraid that he has never been treated so straightforwardly since he claimed to be the prime minister.

Lin Jian was right. From the very beginning, she didn't think that the prime minister of the empire would be a loyal minister of the Iniesta family.Although he was born in an imperial aristocratic family, he spent his youth establishing his outlook on life in the Federation and the Alliance.His loyalty is to the country rather than to the individual.

Hesitation in position is inevitable, but Lin Jian patiently waited for him to make a choice.This huge empire with a long history really needs his abilities.

The prime minister of the empire didn't hesitate for long in front of Lin Jian. Now that he had made his choice, it would be nothing but humiliation to pretend to be in front of such a direct person.

But the prime minister also advised Lin Jian not to replace the royal family and change the dynasty, at least not now.Iniesta's rule has become deeply ingrained in the hearts of the citizens of the Galactic Empire.After all, this is an imperial country that has lasted for hundreds of years, and the thinking of the people is fundamentally different from that of the people under the alliance and federal system.

It's not just ordinary citizens. Although Lin Jian's military exploits are enough to disdain most of the imperial generals at this time, they will not surrender for it.

At present, her dominance in the capital star is partly due to the fighting between the Federation and the Alliance, and more importantly, she has seized the opportunity created by the Jingshihui rebellion.

At this moment, these two events are not only opportunities, but also a crisis for the current empire and the power in Lin Jian's hands.Therefore, in the current situation, don't think about going further, but start thinking about solving the imminent crisis.

Lin Jian did not respond directly to the imperial prime minister's statement.

But the Marquess of Chatterley understood that this capable female general had acquiesced to his statement, and this was probably something she had already thought about.You can tell this from her expression that doesn't change at all.

The Marquess of Chatterley looked at Lin Jian who got up and walked back to the desk, feeling slightly surprised.

Everyone will undergo some different changes when they are in a position that is completely different from their previous life. Some people will become complacent, some will be full of pride;But there is always an emotion that will more or less appear on this kind of person, and that is nervousness and anxiety.

He knew that the woman standing behind the desk had a genetic problem, and in this respect, she should have such emotions.But at least for now, the Marquess of Chatterley didn't see any clues from her.

There are indeed great changes in her body, but the most notable point is that she has become harder.The whole person seems to be shrouded in a delicate tungsten carbide shell, making it difficult for people to peek into his heart.
