Vol 2 Chapter 2: Old

Lin's family banquet has always been held in the three halls of Shuyu, Stargazing and Xiri. Each of the three halls is named after a battle that the Lin family has participated in in the past. Among them, the sun hall is the largest, and it is only opened during the important festival of the dynasty every year. It can be eaten by hundreds of people, and important figures of the main house will be present.
And tonight's home feast is set in Shuyu Hall.
Shuyu Hall is also a retro design. It is built in the mountains and surrounded by lush forests. A cascading waterfall flows from it, and the front is above the water, giving you a panoramic view of the lake and mountains. Here, there is no trace of modern high-tech, all equipment is subtly integrated into the surrounding environment, leaving no trace.
There is only one table in Shuyu Hall, which is a real private banquet. Setting up a private banquet here means that the guests tonight are truly considered by the Lin family.
Before the dinner time, Lin Xi came to the side of the quiet room along the promenade, and knocked on the door gently.
"Is it Xi? Come in."
Lin Xi pushed in the door.
There was a gentleman sitting in the quiet room. He might not be thirty years old, but he was almost sixty. With the current technology of human beings, even at the age of 100, it can maintain the peak appearance of 20 years old. It's just that the higher the rank, the later you have to show a little bit of age, so that you can show majesty.
The man held up a cup of tea and sipped it with satisfaction, saying: "This is frost tea from the deep sea bottom of the planet in the distant waters. It is very rare. Those who are separated are also attentive. You have suffered this time, drink tea first. "
Lin Xi held up the tea cup and started to bite cold, then he knew what he was drinking, and drank it. The entrance of the frosted tea is like an ice line into the abdomen, and Lin Xi's whole body reaction is aroused in a blink of an eye. The heat rolls out, and the body temperature rises to an amazing level instantly.
If it's cold and hot, Lin Xi only feels a lot relaxed in his body, as if every cell has been baptized, giving a different vitality.
"Good tea!"
"It's really good. Such a small cup is enough to do another genetic optimization."
Lin Xi put down her tea cup, her body was upright, and solemnly said, "Father, I want to ask something clearly."
"Just ask."
"Why did Xuancheng come over this time to host a banquet in Shuyu Hall?"
"Xuan Cheng is not an outsider. Hearing that you have an accident, he rushed over from the main star day and night, and has been living here for almost a month. Right now he can leave everything and come here to wait for you, to you You do n’t have to say much about it. You ’re in great trouble this time. Your grandfather and several elders in the family have made a total of them. I think it ’s better to settle the matter between you as soon as possible.

Lin Xi's face was a bit unnatural, his eyes flickered and he said, "I don't have to be so anxious about this? I haven't graduated yet!"
"It's only a year since you graduated. It's not too early to get married now."
Lin Xi snorted and said, "I still have a lot of youth, I don't want to marry so early! Didn't you say it before, could you let me play for a few years?"
The man sighed and said, "It was then, now is now. Where did I want my opponent to become so crazy, and dare to start in winter hunting? So this time is different from the past, our Lin family also needs to show their attitude. . "
Lin Xi was getting more and more wrong, and asked, "Is the Lin family showing an attitude, does it have anything to do with me?"
The man laughed clearly and said, "It seems that this winter hunt has also made you mature a lot. You are right, the Lin family's attitude is indeed related to you to a large extent, to be more precise, to you and Xuan You know, Xuan Cheng is the four princes, ranking very high in the inheritance order of the dynasty. Moreover, Xuan Cheng's mother's family and our Lin family have been alliances for hundreds of years, and they have always watched and helped each other. In fact, what kind of relationship is stronger than in-laws and blood relationship? When you settle with Xuancheng, it is equivalent to announcing our position of the Lin family. "
The smile on Lin Xi's face was almost invisible, and he said, "Aren't we prosperous in the Tang Dynasty? Even if Xuancheng inherits the throne, he doesn't have any power? Why value this inheritance so much?"
The man said slowly, "This throne is virtual and real. The dynasty has dozens of star domains and countless leading stars, separated by hundreds of light years. Why is it so vast that it can maintain unity? It is not based on my Chinese tradition Belief, and faith always has a credibility. Well, this credibility is the throne. "
"Don't our Lin family always stay in the throne? And this is also prohibited by the Constitution."
The man said positively: "If it is in peacetime, naturally we will not intervene, it is meaningless to intervene. The executive power of the state is always in the hands of the cabinet. But the situation now requires us to intervene."
"Father, you seem to be inconsistent."
The man groaned and said, "Well, some insider tells you earlier, so that you can mature faster. Now the emperor is seriously ill, I am afraid that the throne will soon pass down. Now besides Xuancheng, The second prince, the fifth prince, and the grandson grandchildren all have very high voices. In fact, no matter who of the four of them succeeds, there is no problem, and our Lin family will not have a slight opinion. "
Lin Xi heard something wrong ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Are there still four candidates? "
The man smiled bitterly and nodded slowly, saying, "There is more than one. There is more than one. His Majesty's younger brother, I do not know where to get the resources. Suddenly, there were many announcements in support of his ascension. Recently, some people turned out of history and argued that His Majesty The means to secure a position is improper. "
Lin Xi oddly said, "Is this still the case?"
"It doesn't matter if you have it or not. As long as people are convinced, they will succeed."
"They are unlikely to succeed?"
"Well, if that's the case, that's it. There are two other secrets now, both of which are important. First, there are rumors that there is another person who is truly qualified to inherit the throne. Only when the time is right, they will come out and fight. Two. Some people find out the old story of Andromeda's plan that year, and want to condemn Xuancheng. "
"Andromeda's plan? Was there a conclusion already?"
"A director of the Andromeda project suddenly jumped out and pleaded guilty, acknowledging that black money was collected in the purchase of equipment, and the use of the next-level equipment. As a result, the data error exceeded the safe range, and finally led to the disaster of the Andromeda immigration spacecraft."
"What does this have to do with Xuancheng?"
"During that time, Xuan Cheng was trained in his department."
Lin Xi's face was solemn and he realized the seriousness of the problem.
The Andromeda Project is one of the most significant projects of the dynasty for nearly a century, and is preparing to start the first human exploration of the river system. As a prerequisite for the plan, the first step is to establish a forward base on the edge of the Milky Way. To this end, Shengtang plans to build more than a hundred of the latest models of super large immigration starships, each of which can accommodate 100,000 immigrants.
However, no one expected that the first starship fired and exploded during the sea trial, and nearly half of the thousands of crew members on the starship were killed.
